Shun Long was stunned for a moment after seeing this kingdom-toppling beauty turning around and smiling at him and Liu Mei, while causing many young men from the Holy sect to feel envy in their hearts in the process.
After all, nearly every single one of the male disciples who had already passed the test, had already thought that they could happily take Xie Xingyi as their servant if she happened to fail her own test.
And yet, their hopes were quickly ruined since not only did Shun Long seem to have a relationship with that white-robed, terrifying goddess of death, but even this stunningly beautiful girl ended up taking the initiative to smile at him.
Even some young men from the Holy sect who had already decided to court Xie Xingyi felt dejected when they saw this scene, but most of them didn't choose to give up.
After all, unlike the white-robed Liu Mei, Xie Xingyi didn't seem to have any relationship with Shun Long. Besides, no matter how abnormal Shun Long was, inside the Holy sect, they wouldn't have to restrict their cultivation to the peak of rank 3 in the Nascent Soul!
Regardless if it was in terms of strength or status, most of these outer disciples felt that they were definitely stronger than a peak rank 1 Nascent Soul cultivator from the Night star continent like Shun Long.
Of course, Shun Long was completely oblivious to the thoughts of the people around him, as he turned to look at Liu Mei next to him and asked in a curious tone
''Mei'er, do you know her?''
Liu Mei looked at Shun Long with her enchanting black eyes hidden behind her white veil, before she nodded her head a moment later and continued with that same radiant smile on her face
''Long-ge should also know her. After all, her elder sister is madam Xie Rong.''
Just like Liu Mei when she had first found out about Xie Xingyi's identity, Shun Long was also stunned when he heard this.
Although Xie Xingyi did indeed resemble Xie Rong greatly and Shun Long had already guessed that the 2 of them were most likely related one way or another, he hadn't expected that this girl was actually Xie Rong's younger sister.
With that same smile on her face, Liu Mei then didn't hide anything, as she started to explain to Shun Long how she had met Xie Xingyi in the third test, and what the 2 of them had been through together in the past 25 days.
At the same time, standing at the center of the arena, Xie Xingyi looked at the young man from the Holy sect opposite to her and smiled lightly as she said
''Senior, let's start.''
Without waiting for a response, Xie Xingyi's body was quickly covered with a black aura, before she suddenly disappeared from the arena under the astounded eyes of the yellow-robed young man in front of her.
The young man from the Holy sect didn't even have a chance to attack, before he saw the gorgeous blonde-haired young woman vanish instantly!
Of course, as an experienced outer disciple of the Holy sect, he wouldn't just sit there and do nothing when he was placed in a dangerous situation.
Although he couldn't see where Xie Xingyi was, as a Nascent Soul stage cultivator, he definitely wouldn't lose so easily against an opponent he can't locate.
Closing his eyes, he immediately activated his soul sense and spread it around him, trying to find out where Xie Xingyi disappeared to.
At the same time, the white-robed Dao Emperor, Cao Ling, stared at the scene at the center of the arena with a deep look in his eyes, before he mumbled to himself in a quiet voice
''This girl was actually born with the Vanishing Shadows unique physique!''
Although Cao Ling's voice wasn't loud, the long-haired Dao King standing next to him clearly heard this, as he then stared at the scene in the arena with an incredulous look in his eyes.
Elder Zhuan already knew, that the white-robed Dao Emperor next to him was extremely knowledgeable regarding the countless unique physiques under the heavens. Since he said that the green-robed young woman was born with the Vanishing Shadows unique physique, it was most likely to be true.
Even though Elder Zhuan didn't know exactly how high-level of a physique the Vanishing Shadows physique really was, but to be able to garner Cao Ling's attention, its level was definitely not low!
At the same time, the yellow-robed young man from the Holy sect was still standing at the center of the arena with his eyes closed, as he tried to locate Xie Xingyi using his soul sense!
Finally, a few moments later, he could sense something akin to a formless shadow circling around him at a very quick speed, almost as if that thing had burrowed itself inside the ground.
With a smirk on his face, the young man from the Holy sect took a step forward and said
''There you are!''
With extremely swift movements, the yellow-robed young man then took out a long, light yellow-colored spear from his spatial ring, and infused his qi inside it before he turned around and slammed it downwards on the ground behind him.
At that moment, the entire arena started to rumble, before the nearly invisible shadow that had suddenly appeared behind him was struck by the yellow-colored spear's tip.
And yet, a radiant smile actually appeared on Liu Mei's face when she saw this scene, as she continued to quietly stare at the nearly invisible shadow without any anxiousness in her eyes.
At that moment, under everyone's shocked gazes, the black shadow-like figure actually ignored the yellow-colored spear that had struck it, as it quickly reformed itself, revealing the silhouette of a stunning blonde-haired young woman dressed in green robes.
Holding a silver dagger in her left hand, Xie Xingyi grabbed the spear's handle that was slammed on the ground, before she moved forward, ready to stab the yellow-robed young man of the Holy sect!
At that moment, the yellow-robed young man's eyes suddenly widened, and seeing the small, silver dagger that was moving towards his chest, he decisively abandoned his spear as he stepped forward, opening up the distance between himself and Xie Xingyi.
And yet, at that moment, Xie Xingyi's lips curved up in a mesmerizing smile before she said in a low voice
''Creeping Shadows!''
