‘The next day. A new change occurred on the Great Xia Dynasty’s Heavenly Dao Rankings.

Anew name had appeared—Gu Yugi.

Furthermore, he directly passed Ji Qinglan into second place, and Ye Qiu returned to fourth place.

This somewhat provoked Ye Qiu.

He swore to enter seclusion and not leave until he returned to second place.

Li Yu was slightly worried about Ye Qiu.

This fellow should stop cultivating in seclusion too long since Gu Yugi had a bald buff after all.

If he wants to catch up to him, I’m afraid he would have to wait for that Qing Cang Ancient Emperor quest.

Two new names also appeared on the 3000 Physique Rankings.

Gu Yuqi replaced Ji Qinglan and became second on the ranking.

Ji Wanjie was ranked seventh after Murong Xingqiao.

The Divine Weapon Rankings did not change for the time being. Just like before, the Blood Spirit Monarch’s name had already disappeared from the rankings, and the second place on the Divine Weapon Rankings had already become Li Qingyun’s Dragon Slaying Sword.

The Blood Spirit Monarch broke out in cold sweat as he looked at Ji Wanjie’s name on the Physique Ranking.

He thought that his possession of Ji Wanjie was about to be exposed.

It was a close call. It seemed like he could hide for some time again.

Last night, he secretly sent his Blood Spirit Sword out of Nine-tailed Mountain.

Before the Divine Weapon Rankings were updated, Elder Kui brought the Blood Spirit Sword out of the Great Xia Dynasty. Otherwise, the Divine Weapon Rankings might expose him.

Thad no idea that there were crouching tigers and hidden dragons in this Qingyun Sect. Now even an Ancient God Body has appeared! Incredible. This is one of the top ten physiques among the three thousand physiques. Even those in the immortal realms will probably be jealous.

However, not even the Ancient God Body surpasses Li Yu’s body. Tsk tsk, this kid’s physique is ridiculous. Sigh, if only I could possess it, it would be perfect!”

The Blood Spirit Monarch still felt a sense of pity.

He was craving Li Yu’s body… uh, physique!

‘The appearance of the Ancient God Body and the Demonic Blood Body alarmed many people again. It was especially so for the various large sects of the Great Xia Dynasty.

“Ancient God body? My god, now the Qingyun Sect has such a physique!”

“Who is this Gu Yui? I’ve never heard of her before.”

“He might be a new disciple of the Qingyun Sect!”

“I can’t believe it. An Ancient God Body actually appeared on the Great Xia Dynasty’s 3000 Physique Rankings!”

“So what if he has such a physique? He’s still ranked behind Li Yu’s body!”

“Hmm, Li Yu’s physique is really amazing! Even the Ancient God Body can only be ranked second!”

“Yeah, Li Yu is a miracle himself!”

“Eh? That Ji Wanjie is also a prince of the Xi Liang Dynasty, right?”

“probably. I heard the Xi Liang Emperor sent another prince to cultivate in the Qingyun Sect and accompany Ji Qinglan. It must be this person!”

“Demonic Blood Body? No wonder he got sent to the Qingyun Sect here!”

“Those Xi Liang people are calculative. How sinister of them to send such a person with a Demon Body to our Great Xia. How sinister!”

“And the Qingyun Sect actually accepted such a person with a demonic physique! Isn’t this nurturing a tiger to invite trouble?”

“What are you afraid of? Our Great Xia needs to show such benevolence. Why would Li Yu be afraid of a Demonic Blood Body overturning the heavens with his strength!”

“That’s right. It’s safer to keep such a demonic body by Li Yu’s side!”

The various large sects discussed the two new names on the Heavenly Dao Rankings, Gu Yugi and Ji Wanjie.

Days passed, and Gu Yuqi had basically recovered his memories.

His cultivation life in the Qingyun Sect and his interaction with Li Yu made him relax and drop his guard.

He also found a sense of belonging that he had not felt in a long time. Everyone here treated him well.

Despite the fact that almost everyone knew that he had been struck by lightning, he knew that they did not have the intention to mock him. They were only concerned about how he had lost his hair after getting struck by lightning.

“Senior Brother, you know that my Ancient God Body is powerful and will be coveted by many. I’m the source of calamity, and it might implicate the sect!” Gu Yuqi was still worried.

Although he desired to stay in the Qingyun Sect, he did not wish to put the Qingyun Sect in danger because of him.

“So what? Isn’t it ranked behind my physique!” Li Yu replied calmly. He knew what Gu Yuqi meant.

“The one who wanted to snatch my Ancient God Body is especially influential. That faction is an existence we can’t mess with. I don’t want to implicate the Qingyun Sect. My previous sect has already been destroyed miserably because of me!” Gu Yuqi paused and added.

“Don’t worry, my Junior Brother. You can rest assured and cultivate in our Qingyun Sect with me around. I don’t care who he is. If anyone dares to offend our Qingyun Sect, I will personally teach him a lesson!” Li Yu patted Gu Yugj’s shoulder and assured him.

His gaze was sincere and firm, touching Gu Yuqi.

However, while he was touched, he still felt that Li Yu had underestimated how powerful that faction was.

Of course, he recognized that Li Yu’s potential was ridiculous. Li Yu possessed a physique that was more formidable than his own.

The ability to kill three Soul Formation Stage cultivators with ease at his age was indeed extraordinary.

However, the expert behind that faction should be standing at the peak of this world.

“Oh yes, what kind of faction are you talking about? Why are you so afraid?” Li Yu asked.

Gu Yuqi went silent for a moment, then he said with a grave expression, “The Heavenly Fate Emperor!”

“T’ve never heard of him. Is he that powerful?” Li Yu shrugged.

“He’s that impressive. The Heavenly Fate Emperor is already at the peak of the Mahayana Realm and can ascend into an immortal at any time!”

“He’s about to become an immortal, yet he’s still doing such wicked deeds. I don’t think he’s worthy of immortality and seeking the Dao. Relax, if he dares to come looking for trouble, I’ll help you deal with him.

“At most, I can just hand you over if I really can’t beat him!”

‘The comers of Gu Yuqi’s mouth twitched. Do you have to be so blunt?

Regardless, he knew that Li Yu was joking.

Li Yu knew that the person who wanted to seize his physique was the Heavenly Fate Emperor, but he still dared to keep him in the sect. This was already a bold move.

Gu Yuqi knew he should be grateful and return the favor.

“Thank you, Senior Brother!” Gu Yuqi did not say anything else.

He understood that the most important thing now was to cultivate diligently.

He had to use the ancient god bloodline he had awakened as soon as possible to enter the Mahayana Realm.

Once I enter the Mahayana Realm, I should be able to match the Heavenly Fortune Emperor with my physique and bloodline divine arts.

This way, I would no longer have to be afraid of being possessed and have the ability to protect the Qingyun Sect.

In the afternoon, Elder Hu of the Jade Pure Dao Sect brought his men to the Qingyum Sect to discuss the appointment ceremony with Li Yu.

The time was set to a month later. Every orthodox sect of the Great Xia Dynasty would participate in this grand event.

They even invited various noble families and cultivation families.

The Jade Pure Dao Sect would use this opportunity to announce to the entire Great Xia Dynasty that Li Yu had become an honorary elder of the Jade Pure Dao Sect.

This was the core objective of the Jade Pure Dao Sect.

After all, in the opinion of the Jade Pure Dao Sect, they planned to rely on Li Yu’s current reputation to improve the Jade Pure Dao Sect’s prestige.

Of course, this was also a manifestation of a strong alliance.

To Li Yu, becoming an honorary elder of the Jade Pure Dao Sect was similar to becoming a celebrity spokesperson in his previous life.

The ceremony was like inviting celebrity endorsement to attend an event promoting the brand.

Quality products and brands could also increase a celebrity’s social status and prestige.

It was the same for becoming an honorary elder of the Jade Pure Dao Sect.

‘The status and influence of the Jade Pure Dao Sect in the Great Xia Dynasty and even the entire Huaxia continent was far superior to the current Qingyun Sect.

After all, it had existed for ten thousand years, and it had a deep foundation that had great influence.

It was also a core member of the Huaxia Continent’s sect alliance, and its influence and status were extremely high up in the hierarchy.

Therefore, Li Yu’s appointment as the honorary elder of the Jade Pure Dao Sect was a way to up the prestige of Li Yu and the Qingyun Sect behind him.

Two days later, a piece of news shook the Great Xia Dynasty. It also reached Li Yu’s ears.

The Black Sea Mystic Flood Dragon flooded the entire Yun Prefecture, causing more than ten thousand deaths and many more citizens to be displaced.

The reason was that Perfected Yu Hua brought elders and attempted to subdue this demon a few days ago.

In the end, they failed, and Perfected Yu Hua was severely injured.

It infuriated the Black Sea Mystic Flood Dragon, leading to the flooding of the Yun Prefecture.

After learning this, Li Yu immediately rode the purple lightning flood dragon to the Yun Prefecture.
