"Senior Brother Chen, Junior Sister Xiaoyan, are you leaving?"
Mu Tian and the others overheard the siblings' conversation and asked.
“Well, Xiaoyan has been out training for a while now, it’s time for her to go back and settle down. Where are you going? I can give you a ride.” Lu Qing nodded.
In fact, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of this evil cultivator, he would have wanted to take Xiaoyan away from that small town.
"Senior Brother Chen can just send us back to Linzhou."
Upon hearing this, Mu Tian and the others felt reluctant to part with him, but they dared not utter a word to persuade him to stay.
Lu Qing's cultivation level was far higher than they imagined; he could easily kill even a Golden Core cultivator.
Such beings are always true to their word.
They were merely at the Lesser Innate Realm, and dared not overstep their bounds.
"Just going back to Linzhou is enough?" Lu Qing was somewhat surprised.
He knew from the jade talisman message that Xiao Yan had given him that these people were not from the Northern Frontier, but had come here simply to travel.
"That's enough. We still have sect training missions to complete, so we'll need to stay in the Northern Frontier for a while longer," Mu Tian quickly said.
"In that case, I'll take you back first."
Lu Qing nodded, his mind stirred slightly, and the flying boat transformed into a streak of light, cutting through the sky and speeding away.
Upon arriving in Linzhou, Lu Qing landed the flying boat on the ground, and Mu Tian and the others disembarked.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Chen."
The group bowed respectfully to Lu Qing.
"It's alright, everyone. Until we meet again," Lu Qing said with a smile.
"Goodbye, Senior Brother Mu, Senior Brother Zhao, Senior Brother Wu, Senior Sister Qin!" Xiao Yan waved to the group.
"Goodbye, Junior Sister Xiaoyan."
Mu Tian and the others replied.
Zhao Feng wanted to say something more, but in the end he couldn't bring himself to speak.
The next moment, the flying boat transformed into a streak of light and soared into the sky.
Zhao Feng stared blankly in the direction the flying boat had gone, his expression dazed.
The three people next to him looked at each other, and finally Mu Tian stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't even think about it. Junior Sister Xiaoyan has too much of a background; she's beyond the reach of us inner disciples of the sect."
"I know." Zhao Feng gave a bitter smile.
Putting aside Xiaoyan's identity, her cultivation level alone was something he could hardly match.
Having reached the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Realm, he also mastered the mysterious and unpredictable flying sword technique, enabling him to easily kill cultivators of the same level.
His strength and foundation far surpass even those of his master.
In his sect, he would be one of the top figures, second only to the sect leader who was a Golden Core cultivator.
Thinking about all this, Zhao Feng felt even more bitter.
Seeing his expression, Mu Tian didn't know what to say, so he patted his shoulder again.
On the contrary, Wu Wenyuan and Qin Wuxue started discussing it.
"Do you think this Senior Brother Chen is actually that person?"
"I think it must be him. Who else could have such supernatural powers, and at such a young age?"
"I never imagined that Junior Sister Xiaoyan would be this man's sister. Legend has it that he was accompanied by a little girl when he was traveling. Could she be Junior Sister Xiaoyan?"
"Yes, we should have realized it sooner! It is said that when that person traveled the world, he was accompanied by a spirit fox and a spirit snake. Isn't that the same two that Junior Sister Xiaoyan was with!"
"You can't blame us for this. Ever since that person became famous, countless people have taken to raising spirit foxes and spirit snakes."
"What are you talking about?" Mu Tian asked, overhearing their conversation.
"We were discussing whether Senior Brother Chen might be the legendary'Supreme One' who is said to be cultivating in seclusion on the Holy Mountain," Qin Wuxue replied.
"What! Why do you think that way..."
Mu Tian was startled, but soon he was stunned.
The various legends about that person in the sect's records flashed through my mind.
And since meeting Xiaoyan's brother, the other party has used all sorts of incredible and unimaginable methods.
Suddenly, it was as if a thunderclap resounded in his mind.
He figured many things out in an instant.
"It really could be that one. No, besides that one, who else in this world could treat a Golden Core Realm cultivator as nothing and kill them so easily!"
Mu Tian suddenly realized.
It's no wonder he was slow to react; he genuinely never imagined that he would one day have any interaction with that person.
After all, that person was widely recognized as the strongest in the world.
Ten years ago, he had the feat of easily killing a Golden Core Realm True Person in front of countless people.
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!
An unparalleled existence that commands utmost reverence from numerous top sects and even several secret realms!
"No wonder Junior Sister Xiaoyan is already a Foundation Establishment Realm expert at such a young age. If she is that person's sister, then everything makes sense." Mu Tian suddenly realized.
"Junior Sister Xiaoyan, she's actually that person's sister...?"
Zhao Feng, who had been lost in thought, listened to their conversation and murmured to himself.
...
"Xiaoyan, what do you think of your friends?"
On the golden flying boat, Lu Qing asked.
"Brother Mu and Sister Qin are both very nice," Xiaoyan replied without hesitation.
"What about Zhao Feng?" Lu Qing continued to ask.
"Senior Brother Zhao?" Xiaoyan tilted her head and thought for a moment. "Senior Brother Zhao usually seems to be quite taciturn. I don't talk to him much. He's a bit of a quiet person."
Looking at the innocence on Xiao Yan's face, Lu Qing suddenly laughed, realizing that his worries were unnecessary.
The little girl is still quite naive; those things are far removed from her life.
With his cultivation level rising again, Lu Qing's speed in piloting the golden flying boat has become even more incredible.
Even if it's a journey from the northern frontier back to Cangzhou, it won't take long.
However, after returning to Cang County, Lu Qing did not go back to Jiuli Village immediately. Instead, he took Xiao Yan and Xiao Li directly to the valley in the Ten Thousand Mountains where the Jade Transformation Cave was located.
"Brother, aren't we supposed to be going back to the village? Why are we here at the Jade Transformation Cave first?"
After getting off the airship, Xiaoyan was a little confused.
Over the past ten years, Lu Qing had already told his master and Xiao Yan about the location of the Jade Transformation Cave.
Sometimes, when she needed to go into seclusion to break through her limits, Xiao Yan would bring Xiao Li and the others here to cultivate for a period of time, so she was very familiar with this place.
"Let's not rush back to the village yet; let's finish other things first."
Lu Qing looked at the valley; he hadn't been here for several years.
The changes in the valley, however, were not significant.
Apart from the fact that the spiritual energy is more concentrated, everything else is about the same as it was a few years ago.
He first went to Li Weitian's grave to pay his respects, and then looked at Xiao Li and Wu Xing.
Xiao Li and Wu Xing couldn't help but tremble.
They sensed a seriousness in Lu Qing's gaze.
"Xiao Li, Wu Xing, you've been at the Foundation Establishment Perfection Realm for quite some time now. Have you recently sensed any opportunity to break through?"
Sure enough, Lu Qing asked a question that sent a chill down their spines.
