Heavenly Dao Rankings: I Am Exposed As The Sword God

Panda Novel

“Sect Master’s Lingxu Sword is only ranked eighth! It’s not in the top five!” Countless disciples of the Great Sky Dao Sect gasped.

Their sect master’s sword was the famous sword of the Great Xia Dynasty!

Yet it was only ranked eighth!

Perfected Qiong Feng also frowned. He never imagined that his Lingxu Sword was only ranked eighth.

The Divine Weapon Rankings’ value was getting higher.

“Another greater demon’s divine weapon is on the rankings. It’s in the top ten!”

“Hey, hey, look at that thirteenth place. The Five Elements Sect’s sect master… is dead!”

On the Divine Weapon Rankings, after number nine was announced. The Titanic Crescent Heavy Sword owner, Perfected Yan Ji, his name at the thirteenth place had turned gray.

The word “deceased” appeared after his name.

Upon seeing this change, those watching the rankings were stunned.

This was especially so for the members of the Five Elements Sect on the Dao Seeking Square.

“W-why is the sect master dead? What happened?!” Perfected Jinyang’s expression changed drastically.

He looked at the two words on the Heavenly Dao Rankings in horror—Deceased.

“What happened?” Elder Cang Shan, Elder Qingxuan, and the others from the various large sects looked at each other with their eyes wide-opened.

Why did Perfected Yan Ji of the Five Elements Sect die all of a sudden? What happened to the Five Elements Sect?

Did the heavens punish him for lying?

Everyone was shocked while curious.

“Chen Luo, lead everyone to continue recruiting disciples here. I’m returning to the sect!” Perfected Jinyang felt that something grave must have happened.

Otherwise, why would the sect master suddenly pass away?

…

“My Frozen Water Sword is only ranked tenth?” Zhu Xiaotian’s pupils trembled, and his heart almost froze.

In his memories, his Frozen Water Sword was supposed to rank seventh.

Not only did his ranking not improve in this life, but he also ranked tenth, three whole places behind.

Although he was about to become numb to the blows he had suffered today, Zhu Xiaotian was still unwilling to accept this outcome.

If only his placing was higher, he could have obtained an additional heaven-tier divine power.

Unfortunately, the situation in this life was getting worse. All his plans and expectations had come to nothing.

What was worse was that the mysterious expert was actually Li Yu.

Now that the Heavenly Dao Rankings had been exposed, his and his family’s reputation would suffer a huge blow.

He had really shot himself in the foot this time.

Looking at the disdainful gazes of the surrounding people, he knew that he had really become the laughing stock of countless people.

Zhu Xiaotian pulled the curtains of the carriage. He did not want to look at the Divine Weapon Rankings anymore, nor did he want to meet those people’s gazes.

“Back to the Prime Minister’s estate!” Zhu Xiaotian said in a deep voice.

He lowered his head as if he had lost his soul.

“Giddy up!”

The carriage driver quickly drove the carriage forward.

The Divine Weapon Rankings continued to update its ranking…

Divine Weapon Ranking # 7: Sky Water Sword

Original Owner: Shan Ruoshui

Current Owner: Li Yu

Origin: Qingyun Sect

Reward: Heaven-tier cultivation technique, Virtuous Water Art. Natural Spirit Herb—Sea Soul Grass.

“It’s Li Yu again. Heavens, Li Yu is on the rankings again!”

“Isn’t this Sky Water Sword the cornerstone divine weapon of the Heavenly Water Pavilion? Why is it in Li Yu’s hands?”

“Yeah, wasn’t the Heavenly Water Pavilion destroyed by the demon child?”

“It’s rumored that Shan Ruoshui sacrificed her blood essence and Essence Soul to stimulate the tremendous power of the Sky Water Sword in an attempt to kill the demon child. She failed, and the Sky Water Sword was devoured by the demon child.”

“This should mean that the demon child was killed by Li Yu, so the Sky Water Sword fell into his hands!”

“That might be it. The demon child suddenly disappeared after destroying the Heavenly Water Pavilion. It seems like it has already been killed by Li Yu!”

“My heavens, Li Yu is the guardian angel of my Grand Xia Dynasty. Shi Potian wreaked havoc in his territory, so he killed Shi Potian. The Demon Child appeared and destroyed the Heavenly Water Pavilion, so he killed the Demon Child. The Netherworld Demon Sect colluded with the Wolf King Clan to bring chaos to the Mo Prefecture, and he killed the Wolf King and eliminated the Netherworld Demon Sect! If it wasn’t for him, I really don’t dare to imagine what the current Grand Xia Dynasty would have become!”

“This is what a true hero is made of. He has done so much for our Great Xia Dynasty, but no one knew about it until now!”

“That’s right. If not for the Heavenly Dao Rankings, we probably would not have known that Li Yu had always been silently protecting our Great Xia Dynasty and the commoners of the world!”

“That’s right. I feel that Li Yu put the entire world on his shoulders, all alone! A young man at only 17 years old. His young shoulders have carried a burden that shouldn’t be borne at his age.

“As for those so-called orthodox sects who enjoy the heavy offerings of the Great Xia Dynasty and the respect and support of the commoners, what are they doing? They all spoke of benevolence and morality, but in reality, they only cared about secular benefits. They plot and fight for resources and schemes for the benefits of their sects and how to steal Li Yu’s credit!”

“I find myself tearing up suddenly. Li Yu is so powerful, but he never brags. He did so much for the millions of citizens of our Great Xia Dynasty, but he never left his name behind to be known. He silently gave his all without asking for anything in return. Instead, some hypocritical sects and despicable people seize the chance to take his credit. It really makes me furious for his sake.”

At that moment, countless people were touched. Some even had tears in their eyes.

To them, the Divine Weapon Rankings no longer seem like the ranking for divine weapons.

It was the list of a hero’s legacy!

Every weapon he owned seemed to speak of the sweat and tears Li Yu had rendered for the Great Xia Dynasty and the commoners of the world.

A hero serves the country and its people, and Li Yu perfectly exemplified that saying.

He was a hero, a worthy hero, a great hero who should be respected by all people.

At that moment, everyone looked at Li Yu’s name with reverence.

“Hmph, how could the Five Elements Sect have the cheek to say that their Patriarch killed the Wolf King and destroyed the Netherworld Demon Sect? How shameless!”

“A dignified orthodox sect actually stooped to do such despicable things. It’s really disgusting. I think that Perfected Yan Ji will suffer the wrath of heaven sooner or later!”

“Look, the Five Elements Sect Master is dead!”

“Oh really? Good! Such a shameless person isn’t fit to be the master of a sect. Well deserved!”

“Hmph, looks like karma has arrived. No way did the Heavenly Dao Rankings couldn’t take it anymore and directly kill him, right?”

“Hahaha! Perhaps!”

Outside the Dao Seeking Square, in the carriage. Murong Xingqiao studied the latest ranking and was shocked again.

“You were the one who got rid of the demon child!”

Murong Xingqiao felt she had goosebumps all over her body.

One after the other, she had witnessed the appearance of these rankings and heard about the events that had caused a stir not long ago.

It turned out that the person who had been guarding the Great Xia Dynasty was Li Yu.

The person who had pulled the Great Xia Dynasty back from the brink of disaster time and time again. It was this man in front of her.

“Ah yes.” Li Yu smiled, and he remained carefree as if this matter was not worth mentioning.

How much have you done for the Great Xia Dynasty?

Murong Xingqiao was truly moved.

If not for Li Yu, the current Great Xia Dynasty would probably be in chaos.

It might not even exist anymore.

The greater demon, the demon child, the Wolf King Clan, the Netherworld Demon Sect. These threats had threatened the safety of the Great Xia Dynasty.

They were all eliminated by Li Yu, who had brought peace and stability to the Great Xia Dynasty.

He was the worthy hero of the Great Xia Dynasty.

However, no one knew he had done all of this before the new rankings.

Even Murong Xingqiao had once regarded the Five Elements Sect and the Zhu family as heroes.

Although she was skeptical of Zhu Xiaotian’s words initially, news of the Five Elements Sect spread afterward, and they took out the head of Wolf King Tharman as evidence.

It made her believe it too.

If not for the Heavenly Dao Rankings, she probably would not have known that the actual hero was Li Yu.

It was the peerless prodigy who kept giving her surprises and shocks.

Li Yu had done so much for the Great Xia Dynasty and the commoners. Yet, he had never bragged about it. In fact, he had never even mentioned it to her. What sort of heroic spirit and broad-mindedness was that?

This was a man with an indomitable spirit. He fully deserved to be hailed as a hero.

After thinking till that point, Murong Xingqiao’s eyes glowed even more. There seemed to be a trace of admiration and tenderness in her gaze as well.

It made Li Yu embarrassed!

Fortunately, he knew that Murong Xingqiao was a girl. Otherwise, he probably could not sit still anymore!
