"Whoosh!"
At this moment, a powerful aura emerged in the grand hall where the four were gathered.
Feeling this aura, everyone stared fiercely at Jian Hengtian to one side.
"Jian Hengtian, you..."
Liu Gu suddenly stood up and glared at Jian Hengtian.
"You actually, you're actually about to break through again. What exactly is going on?"
Li Canghai was also filled with incredulity.
"Didn't you just break through a few days ago? Could it be that you suppressed it again after a few days ago?"
Yun Tiankong said in surprise. However, he soon noticed something wrong and exclaimed, "A few days ago you broke through the eighth rank. Now your aura is about to break through the ninth rank!"
"Crack!"
As soon as Yun Tianlong said this, the atmosphere in the hall almost exploded. Three pairs of eyes stared intently at Jian Hengtian, making him feel uneasy.
Jian Hengtian's face was ugly.
He thought to himself that this was not good, he was about to be unable to suppress his cultivation realm again.
"Uh... Hehe, yes, I'm about to break through the ninth rank." He said awkwardly, not daring to meet their gazes.
If they knew that Jian Hengtian was taking advantage of the opportunity alone while being aware of the auspicious sign, these three would probably violently beat him up.
"You're actually breaking through the ninth rank again. What exactly is going on with you?"
"That's right, in just a few days you've broken through consecutively. What are you hiding from us?"
"You can say you're a once-in-ten-thousand-years genius, but how can you, an old guy halfway into the dirt, break through a whole realm in just a few days? Speak, what exactly is going on?"
The three stared at Jian Hengtian and frequently shouted questions. They were on the verge of drawing their swords. If Jian Hengtian didn't give an explanation, they would resort to violence.
"I said, I obtained the legacy of my sect's senior, the Sword Emperor."
Jian Hengtian rolled his eyes and quickly explained.
"Humph, your senior was only a tenth rank Martial Emperor at most, just an ordinary immortal. How could his legacy be so amazing that you, someone who took hundreds of years to go from the sixth rank to the seventh rank, managed to break through from the seventh rank Martial Emperor to the ninth rank Martial Emperor in just a few days?" Liu Gu retorted sharply.
"That's right, don't treat us like fools."
Yun Tianlong chimed in at the side.
"Alas, but have you considered how many years he had attained the immortal realm for?"
Jian Hengtian rolled his eyes and shamelessly boasted, "It was only because the path to immortality was cut off back then that a peerless genius like him was limited. Otherwise, he would have become a Heavenly Immortal or even a Golden Immortal long ago."
Hearing this, the three exchanged glances.
"It is possible. After all, the Sword Emperor was known as the number one genius in the North Sea in the past hundred thousand years." Yun Tianlong guessed.
Only after Yun Tianlong said this did they nod in agreement.
Indeed.
Jian Hengtian had always been with them, so there was nothing they didn't know.
For him to break through consecutively like this, this was probably the only plausible explanation.
"Sorry for suspecting you."
"Congratulations. Go ahead and break through."
"Right, hurry up and break through. In the future when you're the strongest, you'll have to help us out with things."
The three immediately changed their attitudes and congratulated Jian Hengtian.
However, their tones were filled with thick jealousy and envy.
Why didn't any of their sects have such an amazing ancestor?
How annoying!
That day.
A streak of light flashed across the sky.
Zhu Shiguang of the prestigious Qingniu Sect descended from the sky and arrived outside Yi Feng and Wu's courtyard.
Now with these two ordinary people, his Qingniu Sect just happened to have a hundred members, enough for him to deal with the sect's membership inspection in a month.
It was only because he, the esteemed sect leader, had personally come down the mountain to wait in Bai'er City, that he managed to lure these two seemingly outsider dumbasses!
But before the sect inspection, he must placate these two ordinary people and absolutely cannot let them run away!
Thus, Sect Leader Zhu personally came to visit today.
When Zhu Shiguang landed, Wu immediately ran out and cheerfully shouted, "Greetings, Master!"
"Wu, what are you doing here?" Zhu Shiguang asked in a deep voice with his hands behind his back.
"Reporting to Master, I'm here learning chess from Junior Brother Yi Feng." Wu said merrily, "Junior Brother Yi Feng is so amazing at chess!"
"Very good."
Zhu Shiguang smiled. This would help him keep these two ordinary people here better.
Zhu Shiguang walked into the small courtyard with the bearing of a superior.
"Sect leader."
Yi Feng stood up and cupped his fists.
"Mm."
Zhu Shiguang waved his hand. His face was full of majesty as he said, "How has it been staying here?"
"It's been great."
Yi Feng smiled.
"Good, good. But there's only you two ordinary people in the entire sect. You two need to get along well." Zhu Shiguang admonished majestically.
"Please be assured, sect leader. We get along very well." Yi Feng looked at Wu Chang'an beside him and asked with a smile, "Right, Brother Wu Tao?"
Seeing this, Wu Chang'an, who was curled up in the corner of the bed, shuddered and quickly nodded his head.
"Yes, yes, very good."
But after saying this, he almost cried.
Staying together with Yi Feng day and night these past few days, he felt like he was going crazy.
The pressure of death loomed over him at all times, greatly draining his mind and spirit. At this moment, his complexion was pale, his hair disheveled. He looked as if he had just gotten out of a brutal torture in prison.
world slacker. But a genius female disciple just had to get clingy, insisting that he take her as a disciple. Not only that, she was always making advances on him, thoroughly disrupting his peaceful slacker life...
n] Top-tier player Zhou Yi died and was reborn into the body of a hopeless simp who shared his name. His first love callously dumped him for a rich heir, his childhood sweetheart saw him as an embarrassment, the ice-cold campus beauty looked down on him—every woman he ever loved treated him like a pathetic doormat. But later, his ex came crawling back in tears: "Yi, I was wrong. Please take me back." His childhood sweetheart became hopelessly devoted: "Yi, just one more glance from you is all I ask." The aloof campus belle blushed as she handed him a love letter: "Zhou Yi, I was blind before. Will you accept my feelings?" To all of them, Zhou Yi just smiled. "Sorry, too late. I’m done with love." Oh, and he also gained a system—every time he earned a woman’s affection, his looks improved and his bank account grew. Soon, he became the nation’s most eligible bachelor, with socialites and heiresses begging for his attention...
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
