8 Doubt
At Peach Blossom Ridge, Jun Jueshang had been by Wanyan Qianhua’s side. There was also Wanyan Shisan there. When they heard a commotion in the sky, the three of them looked up in surprise.
“This thunder sounds unusual. It looks like someone has advanced.” Wanyan Shisan mused, rubbing his chin and looking up at the sky for a moment before asking Jun Jueshang, “What do you think?”
“The thunder sounded three times, with great fluctuations. Only a Divine King Strong Exponent could cause this to happen. So, the person who advanced must have broken through to the Divine King level.” Jun Jueshang stated calmly as he poured hot tea for Wanyan Qianhua.
Wanyan Qianhua’s brow furrowed slightly as she heard this, “Another Divine King Exponent? That’s fine if they’re on our side. But if they’re on Skylink Monarch’s side, I’m afraid there will be more trouble.”
“When did Divine King Strong Exponents emerge so easily? First, there was Xuanyuan Mo Ze, then Feng Jiu, and now someone whose loyalty we don’t know,” Wanyan Shisan said to the two of them. “If Feng Jiu doesn’t show up soon, I might go to Feng Manor to find out what she’s planning.”
But as he was talking, Wanyan Qianhua looked up at the sky, smiled and said, “Uncle Shisan, I don’t think you’ll need to go. Look, here they are!”
Jun Jueshang and Wanyan Shisan followed her gaze and saw two figures, one red and one white, flying on swords. In a blink of an eye, they descended and stood before them.
“It looks like you’ve also noticed the commotion. I was going to talk to you about this, but you’re faster than I thought,” Wanyan Shisan said with a chuckle as he looked from Feng Jiu to Mo Chen. “Tsk, tsk, I guess that’s not you! This might indeed be troublesome.”
He had assumed that the man who reached the rank of Divine King would be Mo Chen, but it became apparent that he was not.
“I am still a long way from reaching the Divine King level,” Mo Chen smiled gently, his gaze passing over those few people.
“So, we’ll have to rely on you,” Feng Jiu said with a smile as she walked over to take a seat.
Wanyan Shisan raised an eyebrow in surprise as he heard this. “How so?”
“I’d like you to investigate who has reached the Divine King level,” Feng Jiu paused, “After giving it much thought, you’re the most suitable for this task.”
“You want me to use my soul-controlling ability to investigate this, right?” Wanyan Shisan rubbed his chin. “Indeed, if someone from the righteous path reached the Divine King level, we’d find out as soon as we asked. But if you want to gather information about those few enemies of yours, I’m the only one who’s best suited to go.”
He looked at her, contemplating, “But what if I miss your wedding banquet because of this?”
“There’s still half a month left,” Feng Jiu chuckled. If you hurry, you might be able to return for the wedding. If you really can’t make it, I will invite you separately later and share my collection. What do you think?”
“Hahahaha, fine! It’s a deal!” Wanyan Shisan laughed heartily, “Now, tell me, who do you think is the most likely to become the new Divine King Exponent? It will give me a direction so I won’t have to search randomly.”
After a brief pause, Feng Jiu answered, “The master of the World Annihilation Black Lotus.”
