“Whoosh whoosh!”
At the Eternal Sect, a strong advancement aura rose in the inner courtyard.
“Creak!”
Li Qingyang pushed open the door and walked out, looking much more spirited overall.
“Good, very good.”
Jun Changxiao sat in the main hall, smiling: “You didn’t waste all those spirit stones this seat gave you. You reached peak Wuwang faster than expected.”
At this moment, there were still two months left until the epic mission settlement.
Li Qingyang advanced to peak Wuwang after Ye Xingchen, also because he entered the Lingyan Pavilion and obtained a Divine-grade spiritual root.
“Congratulations, Second Senior Brother!”
Li Fei, Tian Qi, and the others congratulated him one after another.
Li Qingyang said: “You all must work hard too. Strive to break through to peak Wuwang within two months. Don’t let the Sect Master down!”
As the General Manager of Internal Affairs, he was very competent and dedicated.
“Mm!”
Everyone nodded, their faces full of confidence.
The Sect Master had given so many natural spirit stones, plus various martial path facilities to assist them. Breaking through to peak Wuwang in two months was completely without difficulty.
“Go, go, let’s go to the Spirit Gathering Array to cultivate. Let’s try to catch up with Second Senior Brother and Junior Brother Ye as soon as possible!” Li Fei, Tian Qi, and the others were stimulated by Li Qingyang’s breakthrough and became even more dedicated to cultivation.
“Hahaha!”
“Hahahaha!”
Just as they reached the outer courtyard, unbridled laughter came from the Spirit Beast Hall.
“Swish!”
Hall Master Zi landed in the training field, suddenly clenching both hands tightly!
Boom—
His entire outfit burst apart. His purple hair danced under the released aura. He looked incredibly arrogant!
“This King…”
Demon King Zilin’s eyes burned with passion: “Finally recovered to my strength from before being sealed!”
During this period, going from three meals a day to one really aggrieved him, so he could only focus his mind on recovery. He finally achieved his wish and reached the level he had before being sealed.
In the main hall.
Jun Changxiao propped up his cheek: “In other words, if they wanted to seal you again, they’d need at least five Wusheng?”
“Five?”
“Hmph, that was before!”
Demon King Zilin flicked a strand of hair in front of his forehead, saying proudly: “Now they’d need at least one more!”
Jun Changxiao nearly fell off his chair.
I thought you were really impressive, but you’re just one more than before? You have the nerve to brag about that!
“If that’s the case.”
Jun Changxiao said: “Can you now take on five Wusheng by yourself?”
“No problem.”
His strength probably recovered, so Demon King Zilin kept acting very proud. His nose was practically raised to the sky, standing shoulder to shoulder with the sun.
…
In the dining hall.
Hall Master Zi, who had been so arrogant just moments ago, was now disregarding his status and wolfing down delicious food.
A month of punishment had just ended today.
So he could not only have three meals a day, but could also get seconds!
Only by possessing it again could one learn to cherish it.
After finishing one bowl of rice, Hall Master Zi even licked the bowl clean, then gave a thumbs up: “Dudu, your cooking skills are getting better and better!”
Liu Wanshi sat beside him, saying with concern: “Eating only one meal a day for this month, Hall Master Zi’s face has lost so much weight.”
As the sect’s gold medal chef, what she cared about most was fellow disciples going hungry or losing weight.
She was especially worried that Senior Brother Su wasn’t eating well at the Taixuan Holy Sect, so she decided that whenever he found time to come back, she must give him a good nutritional boost.
“Sigh.”
Demon King Zilin sighed: “It’s my fault for not completing the assigned task properly.”
At this moment, if he knew that his accidental blunder actually helped Su Xiaomo gain higher recognition at the Taixuan Holy Sect, he would definitely flip the table directly, then go find the Sect Master to have a good argument about why he still had to be punished with two meals reduced to one!
“It’s okay.”
Liu Wanshi smiled: “You’ll be back to normal in a few days.”
“Mm mm.”
Demon King Zilin placed the empty bowl aside, grinning: “Give me another bowl of fried rice.”
Sigh.
A Demon King had fallen to this state—how lamentable.
Old Bull came over, smiling gleefully: “Give me a bowl too.”
Alright.
They’ve all changed.
…
“This Demon King from the upper realm who recovered to his pre-sealed strength is my absolute助力 for entering the planar battlefield to seek revenge.” Jun Changxiao sat in the study thinking.
Being suppressed by an Earth-tier expert was an unforgettable hatred. He wouldn’t forget.
Moreover, the system kept bringing it up daily.
Old Ding.
Hundred Hills Great King.
Now adding Demon King Zilin.
Jun Changxiao was full of confidence in his revenge, and also full of confidence in his second entry to the planar battlefield to cause massive chaos.
Of course.
He was also very much looking forward to it.
Settling two missions together—just how many contribution points and how many rewards would that give!
“Damn it.”
“Can’t wait any longer!”
The more he thought about it, the more restless Jun Changxiao became.
“Sect Master.”
Li Luoqiu said: “Xiaomo sent word that he’s registered for the outer sect disciple assessment being held by the Taixuan Holy Sect in one month.”
“Looks like he found the right timing.” Jun Changxiao smiled.
For the past month, Su Xiaomo had been led by Xia Shuiyun doing tasks. The difficulty was quite high, and the rewards were very generous, accumulating capital for him to cultivate and grow stronger.
“A disciple named He Zongying from the outer sect came to cause trouble before. The two made an agreement to battle, settling the score at the outer sect assessment.” Li Luoqiu said.
Jun Changxiao said: “Daring to provoke a disciple this seat personally trained—he really doesn’t know how the word ‘death’ is written.”
Regarding the battle agreement between Su Xiaomo and He Zongying, there was also widespread discussion in the Taixuan Holy Sect’s outer sect, but most supported the latter, after all he entered earlier and was also the disciple most likely to become an inner sect member.
“Creak!”
The door was pushed open!
Sun Yingquan rushed in quickly, roaring: “Junior Brother Su, is your brain kicked by a donkey? You actually agreed to He Zongying’s battle agreement!”
“Uh…”
Su Xiaomo paused his cultivation, scratching his head: “He kept humiliating me. I couldn’t hold back and agreed.”
“You, oh you!”
Sun Yingquan plopped down and said: “How about this—I’ll have my father step forward and cancel this battle agreement!”
He was thinking of Su Xiaomo, after all He Zongying’s strength was very strong.
“Since I agreed, I have to fight.”
“Moreover.”
Su Xiaomo’s expression suddenly became serious: “I also want to use my strength to tell others that although I, Su Dog Sheng, am of humble status, I’m not necessarily a soft persimmon!”
Sun Yingquan’s expression was shocked.
The resolute look in his junior brother’s eyes reminded him of the scene at the Yunling Mountains when he faced the powerful spirit beast without yielding.
“Alright.”
“I understand.”
Sun Yingquan stood up, patting his shoulder to encourage him: “No matter how much the outside world doubts you, Senior Brother will always stand on your side, cheering you on!”
“Thank you!” Su Xiaomo smiled.
Sun Yingquan lightly punched his chest with his fist, pretending to be angry: “If you say thank you again, I’ll beat you up.”
“Hehe.”
Su Xiaomo grinned foolishly.
“Here.”
Sun Yingquan handed over a spatial ring: “Inside are 100 natural spirit stones. They’re what Senior Brother saved by eating and spending frugally. Take them for cultivation. When the time comes, you must knock that guy flat on the ground!”
“This is too precious, I…”
Su Xiaomo’s eyes met Sun Yingquan’s. Without another word, he accepted it and vowed earnestly: “I won’t let Senior Brother down. At the outer sect assessment, I’ll definitely defeat He Zongying!”
Decided.
Not for his own undercover career.
Just for Sun Yingquan’s act of giving help in time of need, he must win the competition!
He Zongying!
Taixuan Holy Sect disciples!
Once I, Su Xiaomo, get serious, none of you can stop me!
