Murong Xiao Xiao did not reply to Li Yuan's question. However, her next action told Li Yuan the answer.
Whoosh!
Murong Xiao Xiao's figure flashed like a gust of wind. She landed firmly on one of the two stone platforms that was second only to the tallest one.
From then on, the two stone platforms that were second only to the tallest one were occupied.
Apart from Murong Xiao Xiao, Ling Jueyun, who was the first to move, also occupied one.
"This …"
Li Yuan was dumbfounded when he saw Murong Xiao Xiao's actions. He did not expect such an outcome. "Xiao Xiao, you … you don't intend to go to the tallest stone platform?"
When Li Yuan finished speaking, he subconsciously raised his head and looked at the stone platform at a higher point.
The stone platform was a hundred meters away in the air. There was no one on it at all.
"Hmm?"
As soon as Li Yuan finished speaking, he saw a figure flying toward him.
A purple figure rose into the air unhurriedly. In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the highest point of the stone platform.
When the figure appeared, Li Yuan's expression changed completely. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes. "It's him!"
"It's him! He's not even a hundred years old, how … how dare he occupy that stone platform? "
At this moment, Wang Xian, who was next to Li Yuan, also saw the young man in purple on the tallest stone platform. Wasn't that the young man who was so close to Murong Xiao Xiao?
"Xiao Xiao, you … you gave that stone platform to him?"
In the next moment, Li Yuan looked at Murong Xiao Xiao in disbelief.
In his opinion, Murong Xiao Xiao was the only one who had the right to go to that stone platform. However, someone else had gone up there. Moreover, Murong Xiao Xiao might have given it to that person. Li Yuan was so angry that his face twitched slightly.
However, Murong Xiao Xiao ignored Li Yuan's question. She closed her eyes as the aqua blue energy surrounded her body. It was as though she was immersed in a blue ocean.
Murong Xiao Xiao was beautiful to begin with. Her face looked even more enchanting under the aqua blue energy.
If it was any other time, Li Yuan would have calmed down and admired this scene. However, he was not in the mood at all.
Seeing that Murong Xiao Xiao was ignoring him, Li Yuan's twitching face twitched even more. It became somewhat distorted and sinister.
Bang!
Li Yuan kicked the air. In the next moment, he shot toward the tallest stone platform at lightning speed. It was also the stone platform that Duan Lingtian was standing on.
"This is going to be interesting!"
"That purple-clad young man … Even Murong Xiao took the initiative to talk to him. He's obviously not an ordinary person."
"Perhaps, he's stronger than Murong Xiao? Otherwise, why didn't Murong Xiao Xiao compete with him for the stone platform? "
"That's not necessarily … Maybe Murong Xiao's who is? No matter how I look at it, he's a pretty boy toy boy. "
"Most importantly, this purple-clad young man doesn't seem to be a hundred years old!"
"He's …"
"He's! Heavens! He wasn't even a hundred years old, so how did he end up here? His innate talent is too monstrous! "
"I'm not even 100 years old. I haven't even become an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, let alone comprehending a profundity. Where did this purple-clad young man come from? How is he so monstrous? "
"No matter how monstrous he is, he's not even 100 years old. There's no way he's a match for Li Yuan!"
"That might not be the case. After all, even Murong Xiao Xiao had to take the initiative to befriend him. Moreover, she wouldn't bring out her memories of the Celestial Lord Temple. It's only possible that Murong Xiao Xiao is willing to take care of him after they leave the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm."
"That's not necessarily true. Perhaps, he has a powerful background. Perhaps, he's related to the Murong Clan. That's why Murong Xiao Xiao is willing to take care of him."
…
When the others saw Li Yuan flying toward Duan Lingtian who was sitting on the highest stone platform, they turned to look at Duan Lingtian.
"He's going to the highest stone platform?"
Meanwhile, the four people who had just recovered from the shock of witnessing Duan Lingtian killing Sima Chun and Dongfang Jin Lun with a single move also noticed Duan Lingtian's movements.
"It seems like Murong Xiao Xiao has no intention of competing with him …"
"Earlier, Murong Xiao Xiao had interacted with him so she must be aware of his strength. It seems like Murong Xiao Xiao is trying to befriend him because he's stronger than her! "
"Ou Ya came here with him. Moreover, Murong Xiao Xiao and Ou Ya are best friends. Ou Ya must have told Murong Xiao Xiao about what she saw."
"I agree. Ou Ya must have witnessed the purple-clad young man killing Sima Chun and Dongfang Jin Lun with her own eyes."
"However, I still find it hard to believe that he's capable of killing Sima Chun and Dongfang Jin Lun with a single move."
"It's obvious Li Yuan intends to compete with Duan Lingtian for the highest stone platform. We'll soon find out if he's strong enough to kill Sima Chun and Dongfang Jin Lun."
"Li Yuan is even stronger than Sima Chun and Dongfang Jin Lun! Apart from comprehending the Fire Elemental Profundity, the Fire Elemental Profundity, he has also comprehended the Explosion Profundity! "
"The Explosion Profundity is the strongest offensive profundity in the law of fire. With this profundity, Li Yuan's strength is more than enough to defeat Sima Chun and Dongfang Jin Lun."
…
The four of them discussed among themselves. It was clear they were very familiar with Li Yuan's strength.
"However, Murong Xiao Xiao is the only one who can counter Li Yuan. Not only has she comprehended the law of water, but her attainment in the law of water is even higher than Li Yuan's attainment in the law of fire!"
"I'm really curious … Is this purple-clad young man really strong enough to kill Sima Chun and Dongfang Jin Lun like he said?"
…
Their gazes followed Li Yuan all the way until Li Yuan reached the highest stone platform in the abyss. He stood in the void beside the stone platform.
"Get lost, brat!"
Li Yuan stood in the air and stared coldly at Duan Ling Tian who was sitting cross-legged on the stone platform as he scolded sternly.
Duan Lingtian had noticed Li Yuan's presence when he arrived at the stone platform.
His face darkened when he heard Li Yuan's reprimand.
"I'll give you a chance … Get out of my sight right now. Otherwise, you can stay in the Celestial Lord Temple and the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm forever! "
Duan Ling Tian glanced at Li Yuan coldly. His voice was icy cold, giving off a feeling as though he was in a world of ice and snow.
Whoosh!
Duan Ling Tian's voice was not soft. His words were clearly heard by everyone in the gorge. Most of them burst into an uproar.
Naturally, there were also some who were not surprised by Li Yuan's words.
For example, Xue Jing Yu, Ou Ya, and the others who were on Duan Lingtian's side had witnessed Duan Lingtian killing Dongfang Jin Lun with a single strike. Naturally, they did not doubt Li Yuan's strength.
Perhaps, Li Yuan was slightly stronger than Dongfang Jin Lun, but not by much.
In fact, if Li Yuan fought Dongfang Jin Lun, he might not be able to defeat Dongfang Jin Lun even if he had the upper hand.
Sometimes, even if one's strength was similar, it did not mean one would win.
"Hm?"
When Wang Xian heard Duan Ling Tian's words, he instinctively thought Duan Ling Tian was seeking death. He was standing near the stone platform on the second level.
However, when he glanced at Ou Ya who was standing nearby, he discovered she was calm. It was as though she was not affected by the purple-clad young man's words at all.
It was as though it was only natural for her to do so.
'Could it be …'
When Wang Xian recalled how Murong Xiao Xiao and Ou Ya had expressed their goodwill to Duan Ling Tian not long after they had reunited, a thought that made him break out in cold sweat appeared in his mind.
'Could it be … Could it be that Duan Lingtian is stronger than Ou Ya and Murong Xiao Xiao?
Could it be that Murong Xiao Xiao is trying to curry favor with Duan Lingtian in the hopes that he'll let her have a share of the benefits in the future?
"I remember … After the voice left behind by the Southern Heaven Celestial Lord introduced the Time Canyon, Murong Xiao Xiao stopped trying to curry favor with Duan Ling Tian like a plaster."
Perhaps, her change of heart is due to the fact that this is the last stop in the Celestial Lord Temple. Even if she tries to curry favor with Duan Lingtian, it's useless. '
When Wang Xian thought about this, he was even more certain his guess was correct. He could not help but gasp.
After taking a deep breath, Wang Xian instinctively wanted to remind Li Yuan of this.
However, just as he was about to send a Voice Transmission to Duan Ling Tian, Li Yuan who was hovering in the air near the only stone platform on the first level suddenly charged toward Duan Ling Tian with flames blazing all over his body.
Swoosh!
Swoosh!
…
The burning man swept across the sky as though a huge fire was burning the sky. The air seemed to be scorched, and a faint burnt smell could be smelled.
"Idiot!"
The voice came from one of the two stone platforms on the second level. It was Ling Jue Yun. He looked up at the sky and said calmly, "That's right, Young Master Xiao."
Naturally, he was referring to Li Yuan.
In Li Yuan's opinion, apart from him, anyone who dared to attack Duan Lingtian would be seeking death!
Duan Lingtian who possessed a Divine Weapon was like a peerless God of Death in the Celestial Lord Temple. He could kill anyone he wanted!
"Hm?"
Ling Jueyun's words caught Murong Xiao Xiao's attention. She looked at him curiously.
"He's not even 100 years old?"
At the same time, she discovered the grey-clad young man was not even 100 years old, just like Duan Lingtian.
"He seems to have come to the Time Canyon with Duan Lingtian and Sister Ou Ya."
Murong Xiao Xiao's memory was not bad.
As soon as Murong Xiao Xiao thought about this …
Swoosh!
