“It has been a long time since both the master and disciple ranked among the top fifty in the Qilin Ranking.”
“The talent from the Ancient Feng Family actually lost.”
“The future looks promising for this master and disciple pair from the Holy Land of Tai Hua.”
A group of cultivators whispered among themselves.
Dugu Aotian’s battle gained fame and also brought honor to his master, Lu Changsheng, and the Holy Land of Tai Hua.
In contrast, the Ancient Feng Family’s second genius, Feng Chen, faced defeat, cast out by Lu Changsheng’s activation of the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda.
Feng Chen suffered grievous injuries, with a sword mark from the Yuan Tu Slaughter Sword still evident across his chest.
If Dugu Aotian had not just recently entered the Quasi-Emperor realm, Feng Chen might have been killed.
“Brother, it is my incompetence…”
Feng Chen, pressing on his incessantly bleeding wound, was overwhelmed by shame.
Feng Mu said nothing but simply flicked his finger, and an Elixir Pill fell into Feng Chen’s hand.
Upon consuming the Elixir Pill, the terrifying gash on Feng Chen’s chest healed rapidly, and his vitality began to recover.
“A sixteenth grade Immortal Pill!”
“The Ancient Feng Family really does have deep pockets, casually using a sixteenth grade Immortal Pill without even blinking an eye.”
With the Ancient Feng Family’s wealth, Feng Chen quickly recovered from his injuries.
But he still lost.
Because Dugu Aotian was ranked ahead of him, Feng Chen’s position in the Qilin Ranking fell by one place.
The victory or defeat of Feng Chen alone was secondary, the most crucial part was that he represented the face of the Feng Family.
Having lost to Dugu Aotian, the Feng Family also suffered shame.
“Brother, help me take revenge, our Feng Family cannot lose to them.”
Feng Chen’s eyes were filled with resentment.
Knowing he was no match for Dugu Aotian, he hoped his brother Feng Mu could defeat Dugu Aotian’s master and thus display the Ancient Feng Family’s strength to the world. Continue reading at My Virtual Library Empire
Feng Chen’s easy defeat by Dugu Aotian gave outsiders the impression that the Ancient Feng Family was nothing special.
Feng Mu, ranked second on the Qilin Ranking, was a monstrous talent, second to none except that one person whose status was extremely special. Without that person, Feng Mu would be the most monstrous talent of this era.
Feng Chen believed that none on the Qilin Ranking could match his brother. As long as his brother made a move, he could definitely defeat Lu Changsheng and restore the Ancient Feng Family’s honor.
However, Feng Mu shook his head, “Now is not the right time. They dared to offend our Ancient Feng Family; I plan to challenge this person again at the Yaochi Convention, humiliating their master-disciple duo in front of everyone.”
“Brilliant idea.”
Feng Chen initially thought Feng Mu had no intention of avenging him, but after hearing his brother’s plan, his eyes lit up.
Once the Yaochi Convention starts, all the strong practitioners from the Immortal Realm that come to celebrate the Holy Mother of Yaochi’s longevity will gather together. Then, Feng Mu can publicly challenge Lu Changsheng during the Convention. Given the face of the Holy Mother of Yaochi, Lu Changsheng will certainly have no choice but to accept.
Defeating Lu Changsheng in front of thousands of immortals would firmly establish the Supreme status of their Ancient Feng Family.
Feng Mu was supposed to be the preeminent proud son of this era, if only he hadn’t met that person.
Now, another Lu Changsheng has emerged to challenge his status. Feng Mu intended to use Lu Changsheng as a stepping stone to showcase the Ancient Feng Family’s foremost talent to the world.
Lu Changsheng retrieved the Heavenly Earth Mystical Yellow Exquisite Pagoda and exchanged gazes with Feng Mu.
Both being monstrous talents in the top ten of the Qilin Ranking, an invisible clash of auras was already taking place.
The bright eyes of the Holy Maiden of Taishi fixated on Lu Changsheng, her attention fully concentrated on him.
This Holy Son of Tai Hua, not well-known previously, was said to be Lin Xuantong’s directly recruited disciple from the outside world, a genius ascended from one of the three thousand minor worlds.
For the Holy Maiden of Taishi, Lu Changsheng was a complete enigma, and even her eyes couldn’t penetrate his true nature.
The Holy Maiden of Taishi herself ranked third on the Qilin Ranking and was a peer genius of Feng Mu and Lu Changsheng.
“It seems Feng Mu intends to challenge Lu Changsheng at the Yaochi Convention.”
The Holy Maiden of Taishi discerned the competition brewing between Feng Mu and Lu Changsheng.
Both were contemporary prodigies, proud and ambitious, not willing to miss this opportunity to spar.
Only by trampling over the geniuses of the same era could one reach the pinnacle and authenticate the Great Dao.
“Strange, why haven’t the disciples from the Guanghan Palace arrived yet?”
Lu Changsheng suddenly turned his head to survey the numerous cultivators in the audience but did not spot any disciples from Guanghan Palace.
It was rumored that Guanghan Palace had a grudge with Yaochi, so perhaps Guanghan Palace would not send representatives to attend the Yaochi Convention or allow Xia Ningxue to be here.
“Ignoring me?”
Feng Mu noticed that Lu Changsheng quickly diverted his attention, as if searching for other people in the crowd, and frowned.
Feng Mu was the strongest genius here, yet it seemed Lu Changsheng didn’t care in the slightest.
“Wait till the Yaochi Convention starts, then you’ll suffer.”
Feng Mu murmured to himself, leading Feng Chen and the other disciples of the Feng Family away.
“This Dugu Aotian has good potential. After leaving the Demon Realm, he managed to cultivate to such a state, his talent is no less than that person’s.”
“That Demon Sword of his, its origins are probably not simple. Could it have been given to him by that person?”
Lin Xuantong, Liu Yue’er, Liu Mufeng, Feng Qing’er, and a few others knew the background of Dugu Aotian. His displayed potential surprised them.
The ancient Demon Soldiers “Yuan Tu Slaughter Sword” that Dugu Aotian possessed sent chills down their spines.
Should Dugu Aotian fully grow, his strength might even surpass theirs.
After the match between Dugu Aotian and Feng Chen, the crowd was disappointed that Lu Changsheng and Feng Mu did not have a contest over their disagreement.
After all, it was a rare chance to witness a competition between unparalleled geniuses who were among the top ten of the Qilin Ranking.
