Peerless Taoist

Immediately after, he saw Xu Tiangang's smiling face.    

"Who am I? It turns out that I am the new chief of the National Supervising Department. What? You don't want to sit as the chief anymore? Do you want to go down and get another one? " Qin Lushan coldly snorted.    

Many of the State Supervisors' disciples present revealed furious expressions.    

The previous Chief of the State Supervisors had chosen to go into seclusion because he had failed in his battle with Qin Lushan and his Dao Heart had been damaged.    

Now that Qin Lushan had brought up the past, he was slapping the face of the National Supervisors in front of everyone.    

The smile on Xu Tiangang's face froze and he said coldly, "I know you are ignorant and have never read many books. Since you came from a small place, you naturally did not have such manners."    

This was using Qin Lushan's weakness to mock him.    

Although Qin Lushan ranked third in the combat examination, his theory examination was a complete mess, and he barely passed.    

The main reason was that Qin Lushan rose up too late. He needed to constantly fight to sharpen himself.    

In comparison, Xu Tiangang came from a wealthy and noble family. He had a large number of guards and experts to protect him. He could flip through all kinds of ancient books. If he wanted to train, he would have to train as a sparring partner. He only needed to train with peace of mind, and he didn't need to worry about other aspects at all.    

Qin Lushan asked back, "Great Yu's Great Ancestor has not read many books. Didn't he also end the turmoil of the Middle Ancient Era? Xu Tiangang, what do you mean by bringing this up in front of the imperial palace?"    

Some of the laughing onlookers immediately shut their mouths when they heard the counterattack.    

Emperor Gaozu of the Great Yu Dynasty was only a janitor disciple of a sect in the medieval period. He had a clear and bitter life. In the chaotic situation in the middle ages, it was already very good that someone like him could survive. Not to mention reading.    

Later on, after the rise of Emperor Gaozu, although he had supreme power, he actually didn't read much.    

However, in the Heaven Realm at that time, no one dared to disobey his orders. Even the extremely fierce Human Emperor Sword in ancient times was controlled by him, becoming the legacy of the throne of Great Yu for generations.    

Cold sweat immediately oozed out of Xu Tiangang's forehead. He had thought that Qin Lushan was just a warrior who could be mocked at any time. But he had never imagined that Qin Lushan would have such a counterattack.    

If he admitted it, then he would be mocking the Emperor of Gaozu and committing a great crime of disrespect!    

In the Cultivation Heavens, there were no strict requirements on the words and actions of cultivators. It didn't matter even if they were talking about the Emperor. However, this was the Palace Examination, and there were many examiners and officials around. Most of them were experts who had mastered the cultivation level, and they could hear everything around them. No sound could escape their detection.    

If this fell into the ears of any big shot, it would surely leave a bad impression on them.    

"Nonsense, forget it! I'm too lazy to argue with you!" Xu Tiangang flicked his sleeves and left, not preparing to debate with Qin Lushan.    

The Profound Star Academy's Chief Zhang Baoxiang suddenly laughed loudly and said, "This is called stealing a chicken but failing to gain the rice. You reap what you sow!"    

The people at the side could not help but burst into laughter.    

Xu Tiangang's face immediately flushed red, as if he had been fiercely slapped a few times.    

He stared at Zhang Baoxiang, "What, Qin Lushan's loser actually talked to him?"
