"I am Situ Ling. Senior, thank you for giving me a new lease of life...
"I will never forget this for the rest of my life!"
The deep and powerful shout caused Ji Changfeng and the others to be dumbfounded.
The scene in front of them...
It was completely out of their expectations.
"This, this, this... What is going on?"
"The young master of the Huangji Dao Sect... Not only is he getting more and more satisfied after being beaten... He is now... so grateful to Senior Xiao?"
"Am I hallucinating or am I hallucinating?"
It was as if they had been struck by lightning.
All of them trembled as they stood there stiffly. Their eyeballs almost fell to the ground.
"Did I hear wrongly? I can't have heard wrongly! "
"If that's the case..."
They could not help but look at each other.
An unbelievable thought appeared in everyone's mind.
"He did not reach an agreement with the Huangji Dao Sect, but he subdued the young master?"
This sudden thought was too inconceivable.
The young master of the Huangji Dao Sect was a proud person...
How could he be grateful to the enemy after suffering a crushing defeat?
But...
The scene in front of them was so real!
"Too damn awesome..."
No one knew who it was.
He suddenly muttered in a low voice.
"It's not really guidance. In the end, it's just a good karma."
In the air, Chen Xiao shook his head calmly.
To be able to use the pressure to comprehend a cultivation technique in such a short period of time...
Situ Ling's comprehension did not disappoint him.
"To Senior, it might just be a good karma, but to me, it is the same as giving me a new lease of life."
Hearing this, Situ Ling's expression was solemn as he cupped his fists and said word by word.
In Situ Ling's original opinion...
There were only two possible outcomes for this trip of his — —
Or, for the sake of becoming more powerful, he would choose the flawed Ultimate Emperor Sutra and reach the Primordial Soul stage.
In the end, he would become part of the Huangji Dao Sect's infamy, just like his ancestors.
Two, he would use his own cultivation technique to reach the Nascent Soul stage. However, his advantage in strength would be reduced because of this, and he might even be replaced one day!
Fortunately...
He met Chen Xiao!
"Now that I've entered the Primordial Soul Realm, my strength is not the slightest bit weaker than when I was cultivating the Ultimate Emperor Sutra. Moreover, because my mind is clear and pure, my true strength now might be even greater than I imagined."
Situ Ling was slightly excited.
As for the sword-hugging youth who had died, he did not feel much grief.
Rather than being a Senior Brother, the other party looked more like someone who was monitoring him!
It seemed that the fact that he had secretly changed his cultivation method had aroused the suspicion of some of the higher-ups in the sect. That was why they had sent a Celestial Bridge realm cultivator to follow him while he was breaking through to the Primordial Soul realm.
Nominally, it was for protection.
In reality, it was surveillance!
"At the end of the day, you and Gu Chenfeng have your own strengths."
Chen Xiao was still holding his hands behind his back, his expression emotionless as he said, "Gu Chenfeng's strength lies in his bloodline, while yours lies in your ability to comprehend. Maybe before the Divine Realm, the bloodline talent is stronger, but the higher the realm, the more important the comprehension is. "
These words were not empty words.
In his previous life, Chen Xiao had seen many examples.
In the beginning, he relied on his bloodline talent to advance by leaps and bounds in a short period of time …
But after he encountered the shackles of his bloodline, he was trapped in the same realm for hundreds or even thousands of years.
In fact.
According to the memories of Chen Xiao's previous life …
When the demon disaster descended, Gu Chenfeng's cultivation had barely reached the pinnacle of the Celestial Bridge realm.
At that time, Situ Ling was already at the Cosmos Bridge realm!
"Thank you for your guidance, Elder."
Situ Ling bowed once more to express his gratitude.
Then, he carefully rose to his feet and said sincerely, "Apart from breaking through to the Primordial Soul realm, I came to the merchant guild for another matter. It's about the merchant guild at the Corroding Dragon River …"
"Oh, the merchant guild?"
Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows.
Then, a faint smile appeared on his face, "Don't tell me that the person behind the He Clan's Thousand Mountain Merchant Guild is one of your people?"
"Er … It's indeed one of my people …"
Situ Ling was instantly stunned.
After a few breaths of time, he said in a daze, "Senior Xiao … Which force … do you belong to?"
It wasn't until now that Situ Ling remembered …
He didn't even know where Chen Xiao came from!
"I don't belong to any force."
Chen Xiao narrowed his eyes and said leisurely, "But for the time being, I'll be staying at the Ji Clan's Aurora Merchant Guild."
"Ji Clan … Aurora Merchant Guild!"
The moment he heard these two terms, Situ Ling's entire body suddenly trembled.
Although he didn't know much about what his senior brother had been doing before he came to the Star Source Bamboo Sea, he still knew a little!
For example.
The enemy that the He Clan's Thousand Mountain Merchant Guild was currently facing …
It was the Ji Clan's Aurora Merchant Guild!
If it weren't for Chen Xiao, he wouldn't care about the outcome of the battle between the He Clan and the Ji Clan.
Under the rule of the Extreme Emperor Dao Sect, there were countless forces of various sizes.
The rise and fall of such forces, as well as the change of power, were extremely common.
But now that Chen Xiao was involved …
The meaning was completely different!
"You … you're really at the Aurora Merchant Guild?"
Situ Ling was completely dumbfounded.
"Do I need to tease you about something like this?" Chen Xiao nodded.
"Then when I return, I'll immediately inform the others to cut off all contact with the Thousand Mountain Merchant Guild!" Situ Ling hurriedly patted his chest and guaranteed, "As long as I'm still in the merchant alliance, no one can touch the Aurora Merchant Guild!"
"Alright, you're innocent if you don't know."
Chen Xiao shook his head with a smile. "If I blamed you, I would've killed you long ago. Why would I need to wait until now? The reason why I brought this up is to let you think carefully about how you're going to explain everything to the merchant alliance when you return to the Extreme Emperor Dao Sect. "
"I understand."
Situ Ling's heart finally trembled.
The breakthrough in his cultivation technique was no longer his biggest problem.
What he really needed to consider now was how to give a perfect explanation after returning to the Extreme Emperor Dao Sect, so that no one would discover any flaws.
After all.
Someone was able to tamper with the inheritance of cultivation techniques, making it so that no one in the Extreme Emperor Dao Sect would ever discover the truth …
The strength of the mastermind must be extremely terrifying.
It was even possible that he was still paying attention to the Extreme Emperor Dao Sect. Once he showed any abnormalities, he might be targeted by the mastermind!
"It's good that you know what to do."
At this point.
Chen Xiao finally waved his hand and descended from mid-air.
"Senior Xiao!"
Ji Changfeng and the others hurriedly came up and looked at Situ Ling anxiously. "What exactly is this …"
"President Ji."
Situ Ling suddenly bowed slightly and revealed a smile.
"From today onwards, the Extreme Emperor Dao Sect and the Aurora Merchant Guild will be in a friendly partnership."
"Friendly partnership?"
Ji Changfeng instantly choked, not daring to believe his ears.
For a moment, he couldn't say a word.
