Chapter 811: Chapter 812 Grandpa, What Happened?
In the void, the light flickered.
The round Starry Sky Battlefield reopened, and Xiong Ba was pulled back into the Starry Sky Arena.
“What the fuck…”
Seeing the familiar scene before him, Xiong Ba was scared out of his wits. At this moment, he regretted everything. Why did he have to show off? He’d taught the opponent everything about how to use the Starry Sky Battlefield, and now they were using his own teachings against him to force a duel. This truly was digging his own grave!
“Brother Xiong Ba, how does it feel now? Have you finally climbed out of the well to glimpse the full picture of the world?”
Li Xiaobai said with a faint smile.
“Junior brother, we’re all from the same sect; there’s no need to be so ruthless, right?”
“The Sword Sect has always embraced friendly competition, to stop at the right time and never to harm life.”
“As long as you let me go today, brother, I will avoid you in the future and will never trouble you again!”
With a forced smile on his face, fear filled Xiong Ba’s eyes. Trapped within the arena, he was unable to receive outside help. If he were beaten to death, no one would come to his rescue. His only hope now was that Li Xiaobai might show him mercy.
“Brother, when you were about to cripple me just now, you didn’t hesitate at all. How come you’ve lost your nerve? I will only strike once. If you can take it without dying, we’ll consider today’s incident over,” said Li Xiaobai, drawing his longsword and raising it high above his head.
“Demon head, do you really want to do this? This is the sect, and you want to kill me in front of so many fellow sect brothers and sisters. Have you considered the consequences?”

“I am an external member of the Enforcement Team; if you kill me, the Enforcement Team won’t let you off!”
Xiong Ba’s eyes shifted, his face a picture of panic and desperation.
“Brother, take those words as your last. You can die now,” Li Xiaobai said indifferently. His sword motioned through the air, and a stream of black Sword Intent swept through like a wild wind, passing over Xiong Ba’s body and instantly reducing him to a pile of black ash.
With this strike, he utilized the Demon Sealing Sword Evocation, intending to test the strength of the Starry Sky Battlefield. The Sword Intent, undiminished in its momentum, slashed against the circular barrier of the Starry Sky Battlefield, creating a slight ripple before being dissolved by an invisible force.
As expected, how could a small world constructed by the Heavenly Dao possibly be breached?
In the void, a large pile of Immortal Stones, Magic Treasures, medicinal pills, and miraculous medicines burst forth, all of them from Xiong Ba’s Dantian collection.
Li Xiaobai unapologetically gathered all the resources into his possession.
The onlookers from the outside world were dumbstruck. Had they seen correctly? A genius disciple highly regarded by the sect was taken down in one move by this newcomer?
It completely shattered their worldview!
“From now on, this place shall be called Li Xiaobai Square!”
“Li Xiaobai is the man!”
Li Xiaobai let out a long howl toward the sky, and a crimson light twinkled in the void. The Sin Value above his head increased by another fifty thousand, reaching a total of one hundred and sixty thousand.
Above in the sky, the List of Villains materialized once again, and Li Xiaobai’s rank moved up slightly, but it still lingered at the very bottom among a small number, hardly noticeable. Unlike the Human Immortal Ranking List, the List of Villains had a total of one hundred thousand cultivators listed on it.
The densely packed names made it dizzying to look at. Li Xiaobai tried to find the name of Wu Chengjue among them but before he could examine it closely, the list disappeared.
“Boy, you really dared to kill someone, and right in front of me!” fumed Chen Jiannan, ready to suppress Li Xiaobai. Many cultivators at the Earth Immortal Realm were also becoming restless. They felt a sense of crisis because if this mere Human Immortal was already so strong, what would happen if one day he reached the Earth Immortal Realm? Would they still have it good?
As soon as Elder Chen gave the order, they would immediately join forces to attack and chop this arrogant newcomer into pieces, regardless of the consequences.
As for the sect’s punishment, they’d let Elder Chen take the fall.
But at that moment, a streak of light flickered in the void, and an elder figure slowly emerged.
“Stop all of you! Sect Disciples of the Sword Sect, bullying others with your power, causing trouble without reason, what kind of behavior is this? If outsiders were to see this, it would bring shame to our Sword Sect!”
“I am here on behalf of the Sect Master’s command, and this matter ends now!”
“Li Xiaobai, you have brazenly killed a Sect Disciple, which is a loss for the Sword Sect. The Sect Master orders you to enter the top fifty of the Human Immortal Ranking List within a month to redeem the sect’s reputation by making amends for your wrongdoings, otherwise you will face severe punishment. Do you have any objections?”
The speaker was none other than Elder Sun, who was now acting as peacemaker once again.
“No objections.”
Li Xiaobai nodded and said, listening to the other party’s intention, it seemed that the Sect Master was on his side.
“Elder Chen, your behavior of personal vendetta is far too obvious. You will be fined three months’ wages, do you have any objections?”
Elder Sun looked at Elder Chen and said slowly.
“No.”
Elder Chen’s face turned red with humiliation. It was bad enough that he had used his power to bully others, but the most embarrassing thing was that he hadn’t been able to suppress this junior, and now he was being punished in public, which was a severe blow to his dignity.
“Since neither of you have objections, then you may disperse.”
“Another piece of advice, after all, this is the domain of the Sword Sect, and here everything must follow the rules. In the future, I do not wish to see disciples within the sect using sparring as a pretext to kill their opponents!”
“If you’ve understood, then you may go.”
Elder Sun said indifferently, his sharp gaze sweeping over each disciple present, fully aware of the little schemes in their hearts.
“Wait, since Elder Sun is here, I’d like to challenge one more person, Elder Sun. Would you bear witness to this?”
Li Xiaobai spoke up.
“Hmm?”
“Whom do you wish to challenge now?”
Elder Sun asked with a frown. Why can’t this new disciple just give people a break?
“Elder Chen has deep prejudices against me, often taking opportunities to suppress me. I believe that to solve a problem, one must tackle it at its root.”
“Elder Chen, since our grudge began because of Chen Yuan, it should also end because of him. Today, I will put an end to long-standing resentments with a smile, erasing enmity with laughter!”
“I, Li Xiaobai, challenge Sect Disciple Chen Yuan. I call upon the Heavenly Dao to open a Starry Sky Battlefield!”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Li Xiaobai stood with his hands behind his back and spoke lightly.
To avoid this old man picking on him in the future, today he intended to deal with Chen Yuan right in front of him, making sure he was thoroughly subdued.
“You scoundrel, what are you doing!”
“Dare to touch a single hair on my grandson and see what happens!”
Elder Chen’s complexion changed drastically in an instant, poised as if he was ready to fight Li Xiaobai to the death. The last genius who entered the Starry Sky Battlefield with him had been turned to ash; what good could come to Chen Yuan if he entered?
“Don’t worry. I wouldn’t dare forget what Elder Sun said just now. I only intend to have a friendly sparring with him and won’t hurt him,” Li Xiaobai said with a light smile.
On the Starry Sky Arena, a figure appeared out of nowhere. It was none other than Chen Yuan.
At that moment, he was utterly bewildered. He had been cultivating at home and never expected that when he opened his eyes, he would be somewhere else entirely. The surroundings changed, with stars shifting and galaxies swirling, which made one’s head spin.
Looking around, he saw many familiar faces. The moment he made eye contact with Li Xiaobai, his body involuntarily trembled, and he quickly looked at Elder Chen not far away, his speech faltering.
“Grandfather, Elder Sun, what has happened?”
