If it weren't for the fact that Shopkeeper Tao had already made an agreement with you, my Myriad Treasures Pavilion wouldn't care about such a troublesome matter. You truly don't know what’s good for you,\" Fang Xinghai snorted coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After knowing that Xu Yang had reached Marrow Cleansing Great Completion, he had originally wanted to destroy the agreement between Xu Yang and Tao Huaijin. But when Xu Yang said to void it without hesitation and didn't give him any face, he was still a bit angry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could this person from a bumpkin background have such backbone?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I appreciate Shopkeeper Tao’s good intentions. Farewell!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang cupped his hands slightly toward Tao Huaijin and turned to leave directly. As for Fang Xinghai, he treated him like a dog barking on the side of the road and didn't pay any attention to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Yang, it’s just an apology. You must know that a great man can bend and stretch,\" Tao Huaijin said anxiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't care at all about who was right or wrong between Xu Yang and Li Chuyang. He only knew that Xu Yang was his hope for returning to Yunzhou. If Xu Yang didn't bow his head, he would have to wait another five years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let him go. To be so arrogant and not know how to advance or retreat before even entering the Heaven Strategy Academy—even if such a person achieves something in the future, they couldn't possibly be used by my Myriad Treasures Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he fails the Dragon Ascension and is left with a broken head and bleeding, he will understand how great the price of his impulsiveness today is,\" Fang Xinghai snorted coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang stopped his steps, turned, and looked coldly at Tao Huaijin and Fang Xinghai: \"We haven't had any substantive cooperation, and I haven't received any benefits from your Myriad Treasures Pavilion, yet you demand I go and apologize to someone who is oppressing me. If I truly became a person of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion in the future, wouldn't you be able to discard my life at any time?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Myriad Treasures Pavilion is so unable to distinguish right from wrong that it’s better not to join.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One last point: don't talk as if I can't live without your Myriad Treasures Pavilion. You need to be clear: it was you who came to invite me to join the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, looking at my potential and wanting to recruit me in advance, not me begging to become a person of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, he walked away with large strides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fang Xinghai’s face was livid. He was just a small inner sect disciple of the Purple Sun Sect, yet he didn't give him, the manager of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion’s Northern Branch, any face at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Yang, without the help of my Myriad Treasures Pavilion, your second Dragon Ascension will be fraught with difficulties,\" Tao Huaijin shouted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heaven Origin was just the threshold for the second Dragon Ascension; it wasn't that breaking through to Heaven Origin meant one could achieve the second Dragon Ascension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang didn't pay any more attention to this, and after a few steps, he disappeared from the sight of Tao Huaijin and the others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tao Huaijin was a bit dazed. It was just apologizing to Li Chuyang; what was wrong with resolving the conflict with Li Chuyang? Why refuse?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was the son of Li Lingdu of Yunzhou. Without the Myriad Treasures Pavilion coming forward, even if you wanted to reconcile, people might not give you face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A frog at the bottom of a well. He probably doesn't know what kind of behemoth my Myriad Treasures Pavilion is, and doesn't know what Li Chuyang’s status is,\" Fang Xinghai snorted coldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang indeed had some talent, but the Myriad Treasures Pavilion wouldn't go to offend Li Lingdu’s son and offend Li Chuyang for such a person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tao Huaijin wanted to say something but stopped.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He still wanted to rely on Xu Yang’s talent to leave Qingyang City and return to Yunzhou. Now that they had fallen out, wouldn't he have to continue staying here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yong watched coldly from the sidelines and didn't say a word. He also hadn't expected Xu Yang would refuse to apologize to Li Chuyang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next time you choose someone, remember to choose someone obedient. Don't choose those who have their noses in the air just because they have a little talent,\" Fang Xinghai said, striding away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did he really think that because he could hold his own against Li Chuyang for a few moves, he could suppress Li Chuyang?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bowing your head and apologizing would have gotten you the Myriad Treasures Pavilion’s resources and resolved the conflict with Li Chuyang. Why bother?\" Tao Huaijin sighed and also strode away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he wanted to rely on Xu Yang’s talent to leave Qingyang City, he also knew the terror of the forces behind Li Chuyang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang had offended Li Chuyang. Within the territory of the Purple Sun Sect, it didn't seem like a big deal. But once he left the Purple Sun Sect, there would be plenty of people willing to take action to teach him a lesson and sell Li Chuyang a favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A behemoth like the Myriad Treasures Pavilion had to have Xu Yang reconcile with Li Chuyang first before they dared to provide him with Dragon Ascension resources. This showed how terrifying the forces behind Li Chuyang were, to the point that even the Myriad Treasures Pavilion didn't want to easily offend them by inviting someone who had a conflict with Li Chuyang to be a guest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang returned to Li Huo Peak!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In the end, I still have to rely on myself!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had originally thought the Myriad Treasures Pavilion would be a good backer, but he hadn't expected that before they had even started, the Myriad Treasures Pavilion would want to use him to curry favor with Li Chuyang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he had foolishly gone with Fang Xinghai to apologize and bow his head to Li Chuyang, then whether they wanted to kill or beat him would just be a matter of a word. The only pity was that he would have to find a new channel for obtaining resources in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Forces, huh. It’s too hard for a bumpkin to get ahead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he had reached Marrow Cleansing Great Completion, in front of some forces, he was still that bumpkin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang’s gaze was cold and sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No rush. I am immortal and remain at my peak forever. Sooner or later, I will settle the score.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His emotions quickly calmed down, and he took out the Li Huo Art to continue contemplating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This year’s outer sect competition had already begun. Xu Qing hadn't registered, and Xu Yang couldn't be bothered to watch.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few days later, the competition ended. The top three were a few names he hadn't heard of, but it was said that this outer sect competition had been fought very tragically, with some even being beaten into cripples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason was that no Marrow Cleansing experts had appeared, so everyone thought they had a chance at the top three, and everyone fought for their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chirp!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This day, Xu Yang was contemplating the Li Huo Art in the courtyard when a sharp eagle cry suddenly rang in his ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up and saw Lu Tianchen’s giant eagle mount flying from Beast King Peak toward Li Huo Peak, like a black cloud. On the eagle’s back, Lu Tianchen could vaguely be seen standing with his hands behind his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the giant eagle arrived above Li Huo Peak, and Lu Tianchen’s loud voice came from the eagle’s back: \"Huoyun, Tie Fu, Gongshu, it’s time to go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, the figures of the three Li Huo Peak elders, Huoyun, Tie Fu, and Gongshu, shot into the sky and landed on the giant eagle’s back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant eagle let out a sharp cry, flapped its wings, and charged into the clouds, disappearing into the horizon with Lu Tianchen and the three elders in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s time to go. Go to do what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang pondered, discovering that the entire Li Huo Peak was in an uproar. All the disciples walked out from where they lived, guessing what Elder Huoyun and the three had gone to do with Lu Tianchen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They should be going to deal with the Blood Lotus Sect’s stronghold.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after, Xu Yang heard this guess from Gao Lin. Elder Huoyun and the three were suspected to have gone to deal with the Blood Lotus Sect’s stronghold with Lu Tianchen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, this was Gao Lin’s guess, and it was unknown whether it was true or false.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Yang, however, became vigilant. Elder Huoyun was his greatest backer. Now that Elder Huoyun had left the Purple Sun Sect, it meant his backer was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But although he was vigilant, he couldn't change anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The day after Elder Huoyun and the three left with Lu Tianchen, his courtyard gate was knocked on.\u003C\u002Fp>",1538,"2026-06-16T12:17:43.130Z","2026-06-16T12:23:15.380Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","9093a7d451fa2809bcb355a642b58a28f616c12c3ef4195098590060fab95980","starting-with-the-diamond-exercise-to-achieve-sa-chapter-363","starting-with-the-diamond-exercise-to-achieve-sa-chapter-361",410,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fstarting-with-the-diamond-exercise-to-achieve-sa-cover.jpg"]
