<h4>Chapter 2210</h4>
<h4>Feng Hanqiu</h4>
Fairy Linglong was utterly bbergasted to discover that the ‘Zhang Xuan’ they were talking about was indeed the same ‘Zhang Xuan’ whom she knew of.
For the entire conversation, those two had been emphasizing again and again how humble and low profile their teacher was, such that she actually believed their words. After all, he was indeed a person who managed to groom so many talented experts without making his name known.
Yet, their teacher was actually... Zhang Xuan!
You said that he keeps a low profile?
Low profile your head!
You said that he is an ordinary God?
Ordinary your head!
There’s hardly any cultivator who doesn’t know of his name after heunched the Beauty Pill and Breakthrough Pill in the Sky of Drifting Specter. Not only so, just a few hours ago, that man came over to the Sky of Linglong and killed one of my Conferred God Kings, devoured my will, and took the Dimension Silencer away with him...
As if that isn’t frightening enough, that man had that person as his tamed beast, and his girlfriend is actually the strongest person in the Firmament!
You call that low profile and ordinary?
Pui!
He is the very antithesis of low profile and ordinary! There is no Celestial God who is more high profile and extraordinary than him!
More importantly...
The reason I asked you for his name is so that I can find him and rally him over to my side. But after that bitter spat between us earlier, how am I supposed to do so now?
Fairy Linglong’s mind began churning nonstop as she tried to figure out what she should do with the current situation.
Even if we didn’t have a conflict with one another earlier, it wouldn’t be easy to bring him over to my side given his tamed beast and girlfriend... Should I just bestow him a conferment for the sake of it? Ah, but it would be better to keep this news under wraps. It wouldn’t be good if the other God Monarchs learned about this matter...
...
Having sessfully left Linglong Royal City without any issues, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.
It was fortunate that Little Chick had stepped forward and protected him earlier, or else he would have been in a really difficult position.
Zhang Xuan was not worried about anyone else making a move on him, especially after what he had done earlier. So, while he made his way over to the Great Discement Teleportation Formation, he nced over at the youngdy behind him and asked, “How did you get here? And how did you get to know Fairy Linglong?”
“After I left the Master Teacher Continent...”
Luo Qiqi began recounting her story.
She had morphed into the Dimension Silencer and broken the dimension barrier. However, in a series of unfortunate events, she had ended up getting caught within a spatial turbulence. In the end, she had been found and saved by Fairy Linglong, who then brought her over to the Firmament.
In the first ce, the Dimension Silencer was an artifact that was from the Firmament but had somehow fallen to the Master Teacher Continent. After returning there, her cultivation had swiftly improved. Within a short month, she had raised her cultivation all the way up to God King realm pinnacle.
Paired with her abilities as the Dimension Silencer, even ordinary Conferred God Kings would find it hard to put up a fight against her.
On the other hand, Zhang Xuan did not expect Luo Qiqi to have met with so many hardships. With a deep sigh, he shared with her how the Luo n had been faring when he returned to the Master Teacher Continent a while back.
“I have really let my n down,” Luo Qiqi mumbled with reddened eyes.
The flow of time in the Firmament was ten thousand times that of the Master Teacher Continent. A month up there was equivalent to ten thousand months beneath, which equated to the passing of around eight hundred years.
Most of her kin were probably aged by now.
After arriving there, she had realized that she could not break the dimension barrier as easily anymore. Most likely, she would not meet her family members again in her lifetime.
Zhang Xuan patted her back quietly in constion for a while before asking, “While you were with Fairy Linglong, did you happen to meet my two direct disciples, Wang Ying and Wei Ruyan?”
“I didn’t meet them personally, but based on what I’ve heard, it seems like they have been cultivating inside Her Sovereignty’s Spacetime Mirror. Their cultivation should be no weaker than mine at the moment,” Luo Qiqi replied.
Hearing that Fairy Linglong had been treating his direct disciples well, Zhang Xuan heaved a sigh of relief.
While chatting a bit about various matters, they finally arrived before the Great Discement Teleportation Formation.
“Do you have the token to use the Great Discement Teleportation Formation?” Zhang Xuan asked.
His token could only allow for the teleportation of him and his tamed beast, so he would not be able to take Luo Qiqi with him. But if they were to attempt to fly over to Spirit Origin Royal City, it would probably take several years before they arrived at their destination.
Luo Qiqi chuckled softly and said, “I don’t need that to travel around...”
The token primarily served to protect cultivators from getting hurt. As the Dimension Silencer, she governed over the spatialws of the world. The spatial turbulence during the teleportation could not hurt her.
In fact, while it would take quite a toll on her to do so, she could already rip space apart and travel freely from one ce to another.
So, the two of them went on to use the Great Discement Teleportation Formation. With a brilliant glow of light, the two of them vanished from the spot, and the next moment, they were already in the Sky of Spirit Origin.
Zhang Xuan quickly turned his gaze over to Luo Qiqi, and fortunately, she was unharmed.
Entering Spirit Origin Royal City, they quickly made their way over to the Inferno Phoenix n.
As soon as Zhang Xuan walked through the entrance, Feng Jiuge, who appeared to have been pacing back and forth waiting for him, rushed up to him anxiously. “Teacher!”
“What’s wrong?’ Zhang Xuan asked with a frown.
“Shortly after you left, we received an announcement saying that the tournament would be brought ahead. I sent you quite a few messages on your Communication Jade Token, but there was no response,” Feng Jiuge said nervously.
The Three Great ns of Spirit Origin Royal City had initially set the time of the tournament roughly an hourter, but ording to the rumors, it seemed like something had happened within Spirit God Pce, causing it to continuously radiate light.
Taking it as a sign that something major was going to happen, the Three Conferred God Kings had decided to bring the tournament ahead to quickly get it over and done with so that they could focus on what that was toe.
In other words...
During the period that Zhang Xuan was away, the person who was to enter Spirit God Pce had already been chosen!
Hearing that the tournament had already concluded, Zhang Xuan could not help but frown. He had already rushed all the way there, but it was still toote in the end.
However, it could not be helped. The Communication Jade Token that he used had limited range, and it would only work if both the sender and receiver were in the same Sky. Given that he had gone all the way to the Sky of Linglong, there was no way he would have been able to receive Feng Jiuge’s message.
He could only hope that his disciple had imed first ce instead. This way, he might still be able to impersonate his disciple and sneak in.
So, he quickly turned to Feng Jiuge and asked, “What ce did you finish?”
“I...” Feng Jiuge’s face reddened. He quickly kneeled onto the floor and kowtowed. “I have let you down! I only managed to ce second in the tournament...”
His teacher had gone through so much trouble to decipher the mysteries ofbat for him, allowing him to even ovee the Nine Phoenix Ster Formation. Yet, in the end, he was still defeated by another in the final round...
“You finished second?” Zhang Xuan was surprised. “Who came first?”
Feng Jiuge had fought practically the strongest experts in the Inferno Phoenix n, and he had managed to defeat them with ease. So, unless his opponent was Zhang Xuan himself, he should have been able to defeat any Celestial Gods.
So, how did he end up cing second?
Were there even stronger experts in the other two ns?
“I am the one who ced first!”
Before Feng Jiuge could respond, a voice suddenly echoed behind them. Following that, several young men walked into the courtyard with widened strides.
The one that was leading the group appeared to be in his thirties, and he had a pair of lofty eyes.
“Teacher, he’s the one who ced first in the tournament. He is an expert from the cier Phoenix n, Feng Hanqiu,” Feng Jiuge exined to his teacher through zhenqi telepathy.
“Feng Hanqiu?” Zhang Xuan frowned. “A God King?”
At first nce, it would appear that there was nothing special about the young man. However, when taking a closer look, one would realize that there was a frightening amount of energy harnessed within his body, reminiscent of a massive snow mountain that had the potential to cause a terrifying avnche.
It was clear that he had already reached the level of a God King.
But was the tournament not intended for Celestial Gods? Why would there be a God King in the tournament as well?
Besides, what was the point of a God King going into Spirit God Pce?
“He made a breakthrough on the spot while fighting against me,” Feng Jiuge said.
Initially, he had still had the upper hand against Feng Hanqiu, but perhaps due to the pressure continuously heaped on him, Feng Hanqiu managed to make a breakthrough on the spot and be a God King. That resulted in a vast difference in their strength, and eventually, Feng Jiuge lost.
Zhang Xuan finally nodded in realization.
While he had imparted hisbat skills to Feng Jiuge, thetter had not managed to grasp the quintessence of them yet. It was inevitable that he would be no match for a real God King.
“I heard that you are the strongest cultivator among the younger generation of the Inferno Phoenix n. Do you dare have a match with me?” Feng Hanqiu asked.
