I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

"Sword God Zhang Juezhi and Divine Court Fei Peng fought so fiercely that the sun and moon lost their light, and the sky darkened. The divine general was defeated and fled, and the Sword God was also seriously injured and went into seclusion to heal his wounds."

The Pan Yue Dynasty was furious. If it weren't for the Sword God's interference, Shen Ming would never have reached the World God City, and there would have been no subsequent events.

The Panyue Dynasty was at most a royal family in the Sixth Realm, but it couldn't do anything to the Heavenly God Academy, and then Di Ling emerged.

The Heavenly God Academy hoped to settle the matter peacefully, gain Emperor Ling's forgiveness, and thus obtain the opportunity to enter the Treasure Realm.

I heard they plan to force the Sword Palace to apologize to Emperor Ling.

Lin Ya told Shen Ming these things through telepathy.

As the person in charge of receiving guests, she shouldn't have said these things, but she had no choice; Shen Ming had given her far too much.

How the Heavenly God Academy will make the Sword Palace apologize is something outsiders can never know.

However, the Sword God is currently healing, and the Sword Palace has lost its leader.

The Heavenly God Academy is located in the Trial Grounds, while the Sword Palace disciples of the Myriad Immortals Pavilion are waiting here for the teleportation array to leave.

Clearly, they wanted to escape the control of the Heavenly God Academy.

Shen Ming asked Sword God Zhang Juezhi why he was helping him, and learned that it was the Divine Flame Dynasty that was behind it.

It turns out he wasn't fighting alone all along.

Although Shen Ming had never considered relying on external forces, knowing this still made him feel quite comfortable.

……

"Senior brother, was there something wrong with that person just now?"

On the Sword Palace disciples' side, Li Zibai heard the Sword Palace disciples' question.

He shook his head and said nothing.

Impersonating a Saint Realm expert is a common occurrence in the cultivation world. Due to the awe of the strong, those of lower realms rarely dare to question it.

It's unwise of them to come to Blackrock City just to swindle and cheat.

However, Li Zibai was too busy with his own affairs to care about them.

He also needed to safely lead the Sword Palace disciples away.

"Big brother."

Suddenly, he heard a silvery, bell-like voice.

The two figures walking side by side were particularly eye-catching; they were the sisterhood of the Sword Palace, known as the Twin Beauties of the Heavenly God Academy.

The girl on the left, Zhou Jing, is wearing an elegant light purple dress with a light gauze belt around her waist that moves in the wind, making her figure look slender and graceful.

Her eyes were full of affection, her lips were slightly pursed, and she always had a faint smile, but it was not passionate, but rather as gentle and cool as moonlight.

The girl on the right is the complete opposite, wearing a bright yellow short blouse with a flowing gauze skirt and satin embroidered shoes.

Her name is Dong Qian. She has bright eyes and a light step. Every movement she makes exudes an undeniable vitality and exuberance.

"Senior Brother, do you know that Saint Realm senior from earlier? He had such an impressive aura!" Dong Qian asked.

Li Zibai immediately knew who they were talking about, thinking to himself that this was what made liars so despicable.

With that face and such cultivation achievements, he is indeed a figure that attracts everyone's attention.

Suddenly, Li Zibai's pupils contracted as the swindler they were talking about entered their private room.

Following Shen Ming's instructions, Lin Ya, who was accompanying him, opened the barrier of the private room to prevent others from eavesdropping.

“Friend, what is the meaning of this?” Li Zibai said coldly.

Both Dong Qian and Zhou Jing drew their swords immediately, but their expressions showed obvious hesitation.

"Are you all disciples of Senior Sword God Zhang?" Shen Ming asked.

“Yes, that’s our Palace Master, our Senior Brother’s master,” Dong Qian said.

"Do you know our Palace Master, fellow Daoist?" Zhou Jing asked curiously.

Li Zibai looked helpless, thinking to himself, "You guys are still holding swords."

"Yes, I met the Sword God once. In fact, he saved my life. I heard he was injured, so I hope this can help."

Shen Ming patted the colorful cloud bag, and several immortal herbs came out.

"Elixir!"

When Shen Ming spoke the first sentence, Li Zibai was already on the verge of making excuses.

Master's injuries are no ordinary ones; not just any medicine can heal them. We mustn't incur a favor for no reason and let this guy trick our junior sister away.

As a result, Shen Ming immediately used three immortal herbs, each enough to refine a semi-immortal pill.

"This...this is too precious." Li Zibai lost his composure and calmness as a sword cultivator.

"The Sword God saved my life, but compared to that, it's nothing."

Shen Ming looked at the two girls, who were rare and precious materials he had obtained during the trial grounds.

It was useless to him, but it made the girl's breathing quicken, and the sword in her hand fell limply to her side.

It's not that these gifts are so precious that they can't afford them; they could still buy them if they worked hard for more than ten years.

Shen Ming casually handed it over; this is what it means to be rich and powerful.

"We're both sword cultivators, we understand each other, no need for formalities," Shen Ming said.

"it is good."

It's impossible for Li Zibai to accept the elixir of immortality out of sentimentality, disregarding his master's injuries.

Zhou Jing and Dong Qian happily accepted the gifts.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist!" they exclaimed in unison, their voices sweet.

"I heard you've encountered some trouble. If needed, I'd like to offer my modest assistance," Shen Ming said.

"Brother Dao..."

Upon hearing this, the two girls immediately thought of their current predicament and spoke in unison.

"Zhou Jing! Dong Qian!"

Li Zibai stopped the two of them, then looked at Shen Ming and said, "This is a private matter of the academy, and it is really not appropriate to trouble you, fellow Daoist."

"Understood." Shen Ming nodded, did not insist, and got up to take his leave.

As soon as he left, the two girls started arguing.

“Senior brother, the academy has already gone too far, why don’t you ask fellow Daoist for help?” Zhou Jing said.

“Yes, having another Holy Realm will reduce our pressure,” Dong Qian said.

Li Zibai was in a real bind. Did he have to expose Shen Ming as a fake Saint Realm expert and reveal his true colors as a fraudster?

How could you say such a thing after accepting three elixirs of immortality and so many gifts?

“We’ll handle the academy’s affairs ourselves!” Li Zibai said.

Zhou Jing and Dong Qian returned to their room, still feeling resentful and unhappy.

"Senior brother cares too much about the academy's honor; they've been killing people..."

"Shall we go and talk to Brother Wuji about the situation?"

The two girls looked at each other and made up their minds.

“That’s right, we should help, we can’t become a burden to the Sword Palace.”

Zhou Jing's eyes darted around, and she said, "Dong Dong, there are too many people around. You distract Senior Brother for a moment, and I'll go find Brother Wuji myself."

"Oh, senior sister, let me go. I have a sweeter voice."

"It's not about whether it's sweet or not."

The two girls argued back and forth, gradually sensing each other's jealousy, each wanting to avoid missing the chance to be alone together.

Finally, they agreed that, to be fair, they would go and talk to Senior Brother Wuji together the next morning.

In the dead of night, Zhou Jing secretly opened her door and transformed into a gentle breeze, moving through the restaurant.

Hmph, she won't wait until dawn to go together. Pleading now will make the situation seem more urgent!

As soon as he reached the door of Shen Ming's room, he bumped into a figure coming from the opposite direction and recognized the other person's voice.

“Didn’t we say we’d wait until morning?” Zhou Jing said.

"You're no different!" Dong Qian said angrily.

At that moment, the door opened from the inside.

Shen Ming stood at the door and chuckled, "You two can come together."
