The Genius System Without Equal

The frightening clash of the two opposing sword energies had hardly dissipated, yet the two fighters were already fighting once again in midair.

CLANG! CLANG! CLANG!

Powered by the might of their respective owners, the two magnificent blades came into contact hundreds of times in just four to five breaths. Each clash resounded like a clap of thunder and waves of high energy blasted in all directions, shattering the surrounding space. Tornados began to form everywhere, and rocks and dust swirled in the air.

The people of Light Clan with ordinary cultivation levels were unable to even spot where Xiao Luo and King of Blades were fighting. But they undoubtedly felt the presence of an intense battle from the overpowering force of energy waves discharged in the air.

"This fight is incredibly frightening. The amount of energy being generated by both fighters is unprecedented. Look! It is even causing space to crack. But, I have no doubt, if my master were here, the fighting would be equally intense!" Duck Emperor exclaimed. But inwardly, he was in shock. He used to think his master, the God of Chaos, was the most powerful martial artist. But after meeting Xiao Luo, he completely changed his opinion.

Ghost was not looking at the ongoing fight in the sky. Instead, she kept her eyes on the King of Blades' designated assistant. He was dressed in a black robe and she could only see his eyes. She was looking at him because he had been staring at her all the while, and it made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

[Holy Temple]

Su Li held onto Su Xiaobei's hand. She lifted her head and stared out to a distant point high in the sky. She was observing the battle between Xiao Luo and the King of Blades, but her flawless, pretty face did not reveal what she saw.

"Mummy, the sky looks strange."

Su Xiaobei's lovely round eyes scanned the sky and she was curious. It looked like the sky was being torn apart one moment, but immediately recovered the next instant. It bore no resemblance to the sky she was used to seeing.

Su Li squeezed her hand reassuringly, and replied, "People are fighting over there."

"Oh."

Su Xiaobei glanced at her mother and nodded her head, as she continued playing with the small ball in her hand. Then her bright eyes suddenly lit up, and she asked, "Is Daddy there?"

Su Li looked at her daughter and was rather surprised by her question. She did not understand how Su Xiaobei could feel her father's presence. Was it her sixth sense?

"Do you miss him?"

Su Li did not reply to her daughter's question. Instead, she answered her question with a question of her own.

Su Xiaobei nodded her head and answered, "Mm, I do. Daddy, Mummy, and Beibei have to be together forever."

Be together forever?

Her answer stunned Su Li. She shook her head slightly and smiled bitterly. She had no words of comfort for Su Xiaobei.

[The Courtyard]

Buildings on all four sides surrounded the courtyard. Birds were chirping, and one could smell the fragrance of the flowers. It was quiet there and was the perfect place for one to engage in self-cultivation.

At that moment, a party from the Original World walked into the courtyard as they left their respective rooms. They stared at the sky with surprise and curiosity as the thunderous sound continued booming away. They were none other than Zhang Dashan, Chai Zhiying, Shen Qingyan, Su Canye, Su's mother, Tang Ren, and Xiao Ruyi.

"Damn it. What in the world is going on here? Is the sky going to collapse?" asked Zhang Dashan with furrowed eyebrows.

Chai Zhiying turned to him and scowled, "Hey, stop making such inauspicious remarks! Otherwise, I am going to pull your ears!"

"What is wrong with you, Wife? We are in the presence of so many people. Can you not show me a bit of respect? Learn to give me some face."

Zhang Dashan felt wronged and stepped over to Su Canye's side, and said, "Lil' Ye, what do you think?"

"I think this is bullsh*t. I nearly lost my mind when I was told my sister is the Holy Lord of this world. Then we find out that the people here can fly around in the air. If I had a weaker mind, I would have believed I had entered a world of fantasy," Su Canye said.

Everyone agreed with what he said. They were living comfortable lives in the Original World when suddenly Su Li brought them there. She told them it was to protect them from a coming catastrophe. Arcana Land was just like a fantasy world, and their view of the world as they knew it, turned upside down. They saw so many strange things that they have never seen before, such as the weird creatures from and the different techniques the people here used to fly. They saw a Sky City that weighed billions of tons floating in the air without crashing to the ground.

Everything there felt so magical and unbelievable—it had taken them some time to digest it all. To this group from the Original World, everything still felt like a dream. They could still feel pain when they pinched themselves, or they would have been convinced this was nothing but a dream.

"Wait, don't tell me my brother is here?" Xiao Ruyi whispered.

Xiao Luo? Lao Xiao? Brother-in-law?

It jolted all of them when they heard Xiao Ruyi. It was certainly possible, and the chances of it being true were high.

"F*ck, why did I not think of it? Lao Xiao is undoubtedly also here in Arcana Land. I am sure he is here to look for Goddess Su. He has been missing a long time. I mean, just look at the calendar—it's about time he shows up," Zhang Dashan said.

"It makes sense… Yes, it makes sense. I think my Brother-in-law is here. He must be here!" Su Canye said, beaming with excitement.

"But if Brother is here, then why are they fighting?" asked Tang Ren. Puzzled, he looked at Xiao Ruyi and the rest of the group as he raised the question.

The question made all of them wonder what was going on.

Shen Qingyan's pretty face looked anguished as she responded, "Because Li can only maintain her current cultivation level by cutting off the love thread. If she is in love, her cultivation level is going to be affected. If that happens and when the Great Archenemy from the prophecy appears, she cannot protect the thousands of beings here in Arcana Land."

"How can this be true? It is like a scene from a soap opera. How can this be happening?" Zhang Dashan said with a frown.

Su Canye found it ridiculous as well, and said, "That is right. It makes little sense to sacrifice my Brother-in-law so that my sister can protect everyone."

The more they spoke, the more anxious they were. Thoughts of the prophecy and what it would do to Xiao Luo were unnerving.

Cutting off the love thread?

The most efficient method would be to have Xiao Luo…

All of them shuddered and could not bring themselves to imagine any further.

"This will not do. I must have a word with Goddess Su. Lao Xiao has devoted himself to her. She cannot do this to him," said Zhang Dashan. He dashed toward the exit of the courtyard.

The rest turned and followed him toward the exit.

But when they arrived at the exit of the courtyard, two Light Clan guards stopped them and told them they could not leave for the time being.

"What is going on? We are all guests invited by your Holy Lord. Are you putting us under house arrest?" Zhang Dashan shouted, visibly upset.

"We are not putting you under house arrest. But the current situation demands it. Please stay in the courtyard. It is not our decision but an order from the Holy Lord," said one guard.

"Stop messing with me. I must see Goddess Su!" Zhang Dashan shouted, trying to push his way through.

But he quickly realized he was just an ordinary person with no cultivation. No matter how strong he was, he could not overcome someone with cultivation. The two guards used their True Inner Force to push him back, causing him to fall onto the ground.

"How dare you beat my man up! I am going to crush you!"

Chai Zhiying was furious and dashed forward. But the Light Clan guards stopped her in the same way.

No matter how much the group wanted to leave the courtyard, there was nothing they could do at all. In the end, they could only turn back.

"If anything happens to my brother, I will not let that woman off!" Xiao Ruyi hissed as she gritted her teeth. No matter how strong her opponents were, she would fight them till the end if they dared to hurt her brother.

"It will not happen. My sister is not that cruel. Don't worry, it will not happen," replied Su Canye. He shook his head, refusing to believe that his sister, Su Li, would put Xiao Luo in harm's way.
