Chapter 2578: This Little Extreme Heaven Realm Is Something Else!

"B-broken?"

"Broken!"

"Really broken?"

"Really broken!"

...

The crowd surged over, all eager to see Lu Zhanyuan display his might.

Who would have thought that before they even saw the main event, Lu Zhanyuan would be thrown out with his leg broken?

Even now, many still hadn't fully processed what had happened.

Li Zhuo, standing nearby, was dumbfounded.

He had thought Lu Zhanyuan could avenge him, never expecting him to be so useless.

Though his leg was broken, Lu Zhanyuan still twitched incessantly, looking utterly ridiculous.

"Windfall! It must be Windfall! I never imagined the master of this villa possessed such a potent anesthetic! And his method of administering poison is unfathomably cunning! Senior Brother Lu has truly kicked an iron plate this time!" exclaimed an experienced inner disciple.

"Senior Brother Xu, is Windfall really that formidable?" someone asked.

Senior Brother Xu sneered, "Formidable? Hah! Below the Boundless Extreme Heaven Realm, there is no cure! Even those in the Boundless Extreme Heaven Realm, once struck by Windfall, suffer a severe drop in strength! Can such an anesthetic be explained by mere 'formidable'? However, this anesthetic is extremely difficult to refine; even an ordinary second-grade celestial pharmacist would struggle to produce it! I never expected the master of this Small Cloud Villa to possess it! This person is not to be trifled with!"

With that, Senior Brother Xu cast a wary glance at the villa before turning and leaving.

The tiny Thousand Bird Peak quickly became the focus of everyone's attention!

This incident caused a huge uproar in both the inner and outer sects!

A man not yet admitted to the sect, elusive as a dragon, had actually broken the leg of Lu Zhanyuan, who ranked in the top three of the inner sect!

Of course, Lu Zhanyuan also became the laughingstock of the inner sect.

Many inner disciples couldn't help but come to Small Cloud Villa, but no one dared approach.

Windfall was too terrifying; they had no desire to be carried out.

Yet the more this happened, the more mysterious Small Cloud Villa became.

The master of Small Cloud Villa never left his home.

Whenever something came up, he had his apprentice handle it.

When Yao Qing heard about this, he was also shocked beyond words.

He knew all too well how formidable Lu Zhanyuan was.

With his own strength, he couldn't last three moves against Lu Zhanyuan!

And yet Lu Zhanyuan had been defeated by Ye Yuan!

People speculated that the master of Small Cloud Villa must be a second-grade celestial pharmacist, or even a third-grade one!

But only he knew that the man was merely in the Little Extreme Heaven Realm!

After this incident, no one dared to provoke Small Cloud Villa, nor show disrespect to the ascendants from Qingniu Town.

Over the course of a year, ascendants were gradually brought to Thousand Bird Peak.

Thousand Bird Peak gradually became lively.

When the year was up, it was finally time for the celestial sect's assessment.

On that day, many eyes were fixed on the entrance of Small Cloud Villa.

Everyone wanted to see what kind of person the master of Small Cloud Villa really was.

Among them was Lu Zhanyuan!

Lu Zhanyuan had spent three months in bed before recovering.

In the Five Radiance Heavenly Domain, celestial pills were extremely precious.

In most cases of broken legs like this, one relied on self-healing.

Even as an inner disciple, Lu Zhanyuan wouldn't easily take such healing celestial pills.

"He's coming out! He's coming out!"

Suddenly, the crowd stirred.

The gate of Small Cloud Villa opened!

Everyone held their breath, eager to see who would emerge!

A young man in a white robe walked out of Small Cloud Villa.

Behind him followed Lin Lan.

"L-Little Extreme Heaven Realm?"

"The master of Small Cloud Villa is only in the Little Extreme Heaven Realm? And just an upper-level Little Extreme Heaven?"

"The one who caused such a stir throughout the inner and outer sects for a whole year is merely in the Little Extreme Heaven Realm?"

...

The crowd erupted.

No one had expected the master of Small Cloud Villa to be just an unremarkable Little Extreme Heaven Realm cultivator.

Moreover, judging by Ye Yuan's appearance, he had only recently broken through to the upper-level Little Extreme Heaven.

Lu Zhanyuan was utterly stunned, then gritted his teeth and said, "I was defeated by someone in the Little Extreme Heaven Realm? A monumental disgrace! A monumental disgrace!"

He had imagined countless possibilities, even wondering if the master of Small Cloud Villa was an expert in the Boundless Extreme Heaven Realm!

But he never expected it to be someone in the Little Extreme Heaven Realm!

Whoosh!

Lu Zhanyuan turned into a blur as he charged at Ye Yuan.

"You damned ant, how dare you humiliate me! Today, I will kill you!" His roar instantly spread across Thousand Bird Peak.

Just then, Ye Yuan's gaze fell upon him.

With just that one look, Lu Zhanyuan's charge came to an abrupt halt!

That single glance sent a chill down his spine!

The painful memories flooded back instantly.

All his rage turned into terror in an instant!

Ye Yuan glanced at him curiously and asked Lin Lan, "Who is he?"

At those words, everyone was floored.

The phrase "break his leg and throw him out" was still being recited across the peaks.

And this guy didn't even know whose leg he had broken!

How infuriating!

Lu Zhanyuan stood there, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Lin Lan said, "A year ago, he trespassed into Small Cloud Villa and was felled by Master's Windfall. Your disciple broke his leg and threw him out."

Ye Yuan suddenly understood, saying, "Oh, so it's him. No wonder he's so angry. Hey, if you're not happy, you're welcome to come seek revenge anytime."

Arrogant!

Domineering!

The third-ranked inner disciple meant nothing to him!

This Little Extreme Heaven Realm cultivator was something else!

Everyone looked sympathetically at Lu Zhanyuan, waiting to see what he would do.

Would he risk having his leg broken again to teach Ye Yuan a lesson, or would he retreat?

Lu Zhanyuan stood there, unable to advance or retreat, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into.

He wanted to fight!

But reason told him he couldn't!

Another broken leg would mean three months in bed!

Wouldn't he become the laughingstock of the entire Wuding Celestial Sect again?

But if he didn't fight, he would still be a laughingstock!

Awkward!

"Not taking revenge? Then I'll be off!" Ye Yuan said with a smile.

With that, he really did walk away with Lin Lan, swaggering off.

"What are you looking at? Get lost, all of you!" Lu Zhanyuan's roar came from behind.

Not far ahead, Ye Yuan ran into Yao Qing.

"Haha, Brother Ye, you're truly amazing! You've been in seclusion at Small Cloud Villa all year, ignoring the world outside, yet your legend spreads everywhere in Wuding Celestial Sect! Breaking the leg of Senior Brother Lu, the third-ranked inner disciple, before even entering the sect—what a stunning feat! Lord Luo's judgment is truly remarkable!" Yao Qing laughed heartily as he approached.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he noticed something odd about the atmosphere.

Ye Yuan was looking at him with a smile, saying nothing.

Yao Qing froze, then caught sight of Lu Zhanyuan in the distance, and was scared out of his wits.

He realized with dread that he had seriously offended Senior Brother Lu!

"Heh, Yao Qing, you're very good! You, very good!" Lu Zhanyuan ground out through clenched teeth before flying away.

Yao Qing looked at Ye Yuan with a bitter face, "Brother Ye, you've really done me in!"

Ye Yuan replied innocently, "I didn't do anything!"
