Chapter 756

~11 min read 2,180 words

Perhaps for some people, the true identity of the Fusion God School Master was already known, but ninety-nine percent of the human race in the Imperial Capital were completely unaware of this matter.

After all, the special rules of the Imperial Academy meant that the outside identities of those within were protected.

And the two words "Candlelight," within the Imperial Capital region, had also been known to few people, until the incident in Fenghai County occurred, and it spread through the entire human race like a storm.

Since then, the Human Emperor's decree had made the Candlelight wanted throughout the entire human race, causing the name of the Candlelight to spread completely.

Thus, in the cognition of the vast majority of cultivators, the Candlelight represented chaos, represented evil, represented disaster, and especially the bloody performances within this organization made those who paid attention to it shocked.

And as the protagonist of the Fenghai County change, Bai Xiaozhuo, the various rumors that happened to him made his identity in the hearts of the masses become the representative figure of the Candlelight.

So, after Xu Qing's words were spoken, it was like a thunderclap exploding in the heavens and earth, roaring through the entire Grand Void, echoing in all directions of the Imperial Capital.

"Candlelight?"

"How is this possible!"

"The Fusion God School Master is that Bai Xiaozhuo?"

Sounds of uproar erupted uncontrollably from the mouths of every student in the Imperial Academy, especially the students of the Fusion God School, whose minds were echoing with violent roars.

They could not believe it, so their first reaction was that this matter was absurd; if not for the momentum and status Xu Qing had accumulated earlier, and the scene of the Emperor Sword slaying the Imperial Prince, I am afraid that someone would definitely have stood up and scolded him at this moment.

But regardless, this sentence of Xu Qing's still caused the students of the Fusion God School to have their hearts shaken, and the Fusion God high-level members on the black Dao platform in mid-air had their faces behind their masks changing one after another.

They also did not believe it, so one gaze after another gathered from all directions, dispersed from the various forces of the Imperial Capital, and all landed on the Fusion God School Master in the sky.

The Fusion God School Master's gaze was calm, looking toward Xu Qing.

Xu Qing stood there, also looking at the Fusion God School Master.

"Back then, I received the grace of your teaching and clarification as Governor of Fenghai County, and my heart was at peace."

Xu Qing spoke lightly; a similar scene, a similar moment, the same two people, but with different identities.

"Now, just like back then, Governor, we meet again."

"And the cultivators of the Candlelight do not bother to lie, paying attention to everything being reasonable."

"I have said these words in Fenghai County, but you were insincere at that time."

Xu Qing was composed, his eyes without ripples.

The Fusion God School Master's gaze was profound, his heart complex with sighs, and he did not say a word.

Xu Qing shook his head.

"Governor, do you still remember the words I said back then? If today's Fusion God matter is your bloody performance, then I still think this time is very poor."

"What is poor is not the performance, but you as a person, violating your inner principles, not worthy of being called Candlelight."

"So, today, are you going to be insincere again?"

"Governor, please correct me."

Xu Qing's voice echoed.

The Fusion God School Master closed his eyes, raised his right hand, placed it on his mask, paused for a moment, and then slowly took it off, revealing his true face.

It was precisely Bai Xiaozhuo from Xu Qing's memory.

One gaze after another gathered instantly, countless minds were lifted, and the entire Imperial Academy became quiet because of this.

But for cultivators, appearance in many cases cannot be used as a basis; aura is the key, but the current Bai Xiaozhuo, his aura was completely different from when he was in Fenghai County.

So, he could actually refute it.

But Xu Qing's words, just like back then, were heart-piercing with every word.

"Xu Qing, we meet again."

Bai Xiaozhuo, who had taken off his mask, looked calm and spoke softly.

"This time, I didn't let you down, did I? I am Bai Xiaozhuo, Governor of Fenghai County of the Purple-Green Upper Kingdom, Bai Xiaozhuo!"

Bai Xiaozhuo's voice echoed, and that sense of calmness made him full of an indescribable momentum at this moment, and also stirred up a heaven-shaking storm in the Imperial Academy and the Imperial Capital.

Sounds of uproar erupted heaven-shakingly in the Imperial Academy, all the students felt their hearts roaring, shock appeared in their eyes, and as for those Fusion God students, they were trembling one after another.

All trust, when faced with a personal admission, collapsed instantly, and what followed was bewilderment, churning, and anger.

The Master of the Fusion God School was actually the Candlelight, who was like a street rat that everyone shouted to beat!

It was Bai Xiaozhuo who had stirred up the Fenghai County change, causing countless human beings to die!

The subversion brought by this information filled the hearts of the students of the Imperial Academy, and the Fusion God high-level members on the black Dao platform in mid-air had their minds turned upside down at this moment.

They could not believe it, and were even more unwilling to believe it, but the facts were already before their eyes.

At the same time, a greater storm was also erupting in the Imperial Capital outside the Imperial Academy, and the various forces were moved one after another; regardless, on the surface, the Candlelight and Bai Xiaozhuo could not exist in the world.

Thus, one aura after another locked on from all directions, and the heavens and earth of the entire Imperial Academy became heavy to the extreme.

Countless gazes, countless divine senses, all locked onto the sky, and killing intent followed, the midwinter descending.

The Head of the Imperial Academy, his aged body as usual, but his eyes were profound; he waved his hand, and immediately the Imperial Academy land rumbled, the protective array dispersed from the Dao altar below, covering the four directions and protecting all the students.

But Bai Xiaozhuo seemed to no longer care about these things; he looked at Xu Qing, and his hoarse voice echoed.

"In Fenghai County, it was you who stood out alone."

"Today, it is still you who stood out alone."

"Xu Qing, are you sad? Is this the human race you wanted?"

"Your Emperor Sword should not be able to move for me; what does this explain? Don't you understand?"

Xu Qing shook his head.

"It's too complicated, I don't want to ponder it."

"I only know that when I stood out in Fenghai County, it was because there was an old man I respected very much; he died in battle, but he still lives in my heart."

"As for today, Governor, you misunderstood."

"I stood out only because I want you to die."

Xu Qing's tone was calm.

"Just that simple?" The Governor smiled and asked the same question as back then.

"Otherwise?" Xu Qing's expression was as usual, and the method of speaking was also the same as back then.

"I thought you would say a lot this time." The Governor smiled.

"There wasn't last time, and there won't be this time."

After Xu Qing finished speaking, his body retreated a few steps, actually falling from mid-air, returning to the Heterodox Immortal School's white Dao platform, and sitting cross-legged.

He no longer paid any attention to Bai Xiaozhuo in mid-air.

He had already finished what he needed to do, uncovering the identity of the Fusion God School Master, so next... he no longer needed to take action forcibly.

Because, in the face of righteousness, regardless of stance, one cannot choose to ignore it; the subsequent matters would be handled by the Human Emperor himself.

After all, this is not Fenghai County; this is the Imperial Capital.

The facts were indeed so.

The Human Emperor raised his head at this moment, his gaze landing on Bai Xiaozhuo, his majestic voice descending upon the heavens and earth.

"Head of the Imperial Academy, capture the fugitive Bai Xiaozhuo!"

The aged Head of the Imperial Academy heard this, his hunched body straightened slowly, his full head of white hair instantly turned black, and the wrinkles on his face disappeared in an instant, the whole person transforming from an old man into a middle-aged man.

His body also emitted cracking sounds, becoming incomparably tall, and the aura on his body erupted like a furnace, continuously unfolding, his eyes having a thousand marks, countless shadows behind him, the sky changing color, and an illusory world appearing blurred on his left shoulder, heaven-shaking and earth-shattering.

It was precisely the Great Perfection of Void Returning!

There was even more imperial bloodline rising on his body, forming a golden dragon in the illusory world, rushing out, circling in the sky, and roaring toward Bai Xiaozhuo, rushing away.

The Head of the Imperial Academy also took a step; under this step, the heavens and earth seemed to reverse, countless rules and laws changed according to his will, and even more shadows of the sun, moon, and stars emerged, as if the stars were shifting, capable of opening the heavens and earth.

Bai Xiaozhuo was silent, his gaze withdrew from Xu Qing, looking toward the sky; no one knew what he was thinking or what he was looking at, and the aura on his body also surged at this moment.

Alien quality dispersed, divine origin ascended, emanating a combat power fluctuation the same as the Head of the Imperial Academy.

But his combat power did not come from his cultivation base, but from this divine nature.

At this moment, he raised his left hand and pressed it toward the golden dragon, and as his right hand waved, the alien quality in the surroundings formed a divine shadow, suppressing toward the Head of the Imperial Academy who was walking over.

The sound of roaring exploded in the sky immediately.

Both sides fought together in the blink of an eye, causing the Imperial Academy space to tremble, the sky to dim, as if the end of the world had arrived, a violent wind sweeping through, howling in all directions.

Every touch between them was like heavenly thunder, roaring through everything.

That was the confrontation between rules and divinity, the bombardment between laws and divine origin, and even more so the duel between Immortal cultivation and God cultivation.

Xu Qing looked up, watching all this calmly.

Bai Xiaozhuo was stronger than he was in Fenghai County.

"He should not stop here; his puppet technique has not yet been displayed, and the core of the Fusion God has not yet been revealed."

As Xu Qing muttered in his heart, the sky shook, a vast shadow manifested, like the hand of a God covering the sky, pressing toward the Head of the Imperial Academy.

The Head of the Imperial Academy had no expression, the world on his left shoulder rose violently, emanating dazzling light, overlapping with it, and confronting it strongly.

As the sound was heaven-shaking, Bai Xiaozhuo's expression was as usual; he raised his hand and waved, and immediately five vortexes appeared in the void behind him, and five puppet bodies stepped out from within.

It was impossible to tell if they were human, because their bodies were all pieced together from divine materials, emanating divine origin power, making the alien quality here even richer.

And each one, after appearing, emanated the combat power of the fourth stage of Void Returning, and there were also illusory worlds appearing on their bodies, but those were worlds of death; and looking closely, one could see different divine statues standing in their worlds of death.

After appearing, they went toward the Head of the Imperial Academy with a momentum of certain death.

But the Imperial Academy, as one of the important places of the Imperial Capital, naturally did not have only the Head as a strong person; in an instant, seven or eight figures moved over from all directions.

These people were all masters of some schools; the moment they appeared, they joined the battlefield, making the Imperial Academy land tremble even more.

Fortunately, the Imperial Academy space was considered stable, and the array protection was thorough, so the students here were not in any major trouble, but there were still some whose corners of their mouths behind their masks were overflowing with blood.

At the same time, within the projection of the Imperial Palace in the distance, a Heavenly King sitting under the Human Emperor turned his head to gaze at the Human Emperor.

The Human Emperor was calm, without words.

That Heavenly King withdrew his gaze, only watching the battlefield and not taking action.

Xu Qing was also watching.
