Currently, the Sun was hanging high in the sky, shedding down an infinite amount of light that was warm and bright.
Everyone here, however, felt like they had fallen into a bottomless abyss. Cold and dark.
Merely by standing there, the terrifying light from the knife disappeared. Merely by using two fingers, he broke the hard black knife. Just how capable did he have to be to achieve this?
Without a doubt, this kind of impact was intense, and it directly shocked everyone.
Leng Feng, in particular, was shocked to the extreme. He couldn't even breathe properly.
He stared at the silhouette in white. Other than awe, there was only shock on his face.
Only after a long while did he recollect himself and make a statement that silenced the entire place.
"Advanced … advanced stage of the completion level?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone came to a sudden realization. Then, the entire place boiled over.
"Unbelievable. It's only been 10 years since the last Competition of the Four Paths and Master Xian has already reached the advanced stage of the completion level?"
"Far too powerful. I thought Leng Feng reaching the intermediate stage of the completion level in 10 years was already shocking enough. I cannot believe Master Xian is even more insane than him! "
"He's not just fierce, he's a freak. From the peak of the foundational level to the advanced stage of the completion level, he only used 10 years. This is far too unbelievable. "
Everyone exclaimed in shock. Their voices were full of shock.
Not even in their dreams did they think Ling Xian's cultivation speed would be this fast. He was even faster than Leng Feng!
"I told you, you are no opponent of mine."
Ling Xian glared at Leng Feng, "I also told you, you are asking to be humiliated. But you don't believe me."
"Defeated … defeated again …"
Leng Feng's face was white and his eyes were dim. It was as if he had lost his soul.
Ever since he lost to Ling Xian, he had been training nonstop. His goal was to avenge himself. Yet before his eyes, not only did he not avenge himself, he once again became a laughing stock!
This meant the 17 years of hard work he put in was negated by Ling Xian after one move. The belief he held for 17 years was also crushed by Ling Xian after one move.
Therefore, how could he not lose his soul?
"Why, why."
Seeing Leng Feng's lifeless eyes, Ling Xian softly sighed. He didn't hate this person and he didn't want to hurt Leng Feng.
To him, Leng Feng was merely an insignificant passerby. Therefore, he had never taken Leng Feng seriously.
However, this person just had to pester him. Now that he was in such a state, who could he blame?
"I have no enmity with you, so I won't kill you."
Ling Xian spoke softly, "I think you know who is at fault here. Therefore, I advise you to take care of yourself."
"I can't blame you. I was the one who couldn't accept it."
Leng Feng snapped back to reality and couldn't help but laugh bitterly, "Not even in my dreams did I think that the gap between us would be so huge. It was like this 17 years ago, and it's like this 17 years later."
"The gap …"
Ling Xian shook his head softly, thinking that if he were to display his undefeatable realm of the completion level, I wonder how shocked all of you would be.
"Not just in terms of cultivation, but also in terms of combat ability. It's so huge that I can only look up to him." Leng Feng bitterly smiled. The hatred in his heart slowly disappeared and was replaced by despair.
The despair of being unable to catch up.
At this, Ling Xian softly sighed. He didn't want to see a Heaven's Favorite like Leng Feng to continue like this. Therefore, he softly opened his mouth and said something that reignited Leng Feng's hope.
"The path to cultivation is long and full of obstacles. Falling behind doesn't mean eternal failure. Temporary success doesn't mean eternal glory."
At those words, everyone fell into deep thought and chewed on what he said.
Leng Feng, on the other hand, suddenly lifted his head. His eyes exploded with light and hope reignited.
Because of the meaning behind this statement, and because this statement was made by the person he swore to surpass.
"I understand now!"
Leng Feng's expression was determined. The way he looked at Ling Xian was no longer hateful, nor was there any resentment. All he had was the determination to catch up to Ling Xian for the rest of his life!
"Xian Ling, I will definitely catch up to you and defeat you fair and square!"
"Very good."
Ling Xian revealed a faint smile. He turned around and walked forward, leaving behind only one statement that echoed.
"I will be waiting for you up ahead."
…..
After leaving the Shang Qing Sect, Ling Xian headed straight to Dong Fang Bi's palace.
This person was his only friend in the Shang Qing Sect. Therefore, after he returned, he had to go see him.
Sadly, he didn't get to see Dong Fang Bi. Instead, he got to see his granddaughter, Dong Fang Yu.
Whether it was because of Master Xian's shocking identity or because of many other reasons. This time, Dong Fang Yu didn't reveal her usual cold expression. Instead, she revealed a rare smile.
"You are back."
The corner of Dong Fang Yu's lips curled up. Her gentle manner made her look like a wife who has finally waited for her husband to return home.
Ling Xian froze where he stood, suspecting that Dong Fang Yu was possessed by a ghost. Or else why would the so-called Devil of the East reveal such a gentle look?
"What is it? Are you surprised to see me?" Dong Fang Yu smiled gently and walked towards Ling Xian.
This made him step back three steps, "Wait, don't come over. I need to make sure you aren't possessed."
Hearing this, Dong Fang Yu's fists tightened and her face turned green for a second. Very quickly, however, she smiled again. Her gentleness could melt anyone.
"Master Xian, you are joking. Gentleness is my real personality."
"Who are you lying to? I don't know you that well. But I don't think I've been wrong about your personality."
Ling Xian chuckled. Seeing Dong Fang Yu's gentle steps, he quickly extended a hand, gesturing for her not to come closer.
This made Dong Fang Yu's face flash with anger. Veins popped out on her arms. Very quickly, however, she took in two deep breaths and returned to her flower-like smile.
She looked like a well-bred young lady from a respectable family.
However, Ling Xian, who knew her personality very well, wasn't going to be fooled by her appearance. The reason why Dong Fang Yu was acting so strangely was something he could guess.
Therefore, after saying that, he turned around and left.
If this was the usually cold Dong Fang Yu, then so be it. He would treat her coldly as well. But now that it was Dongfang Yu who was smiling like a flower and had a gentle expression on her face, he couldn't handle it.
"Whatever. Since Elder Dong Fang isn't here, then I will come another day."
After throwing down that statement, Ling Xian turned around and disappeared before Dong Fang Yu's eyes.
This made her stomp her feet in anger. Her true nature was exposed.
"Damn you, Xian Ling! I, Dong Fang Yu, have never been so gentle to anyone in my entire life. How dare you not appreciate it! "
Ling Xian, who was outside the palace, heard this and bitterly chuckled, "So this is the true nature of the Devil of the East."
Then, he shifted his gaze towards the Volcano of Demons and mumbled to himself, "Since Dong Fang Bi isn't here, then I will head to the Volcano of Demons and save that mysterious man."
