Xu Ping’an erged from the Hundred Demons Tower and found that many people’s gazes were fixed on him.
Another look at his own ranking, and he imdiately understood.
It seed that he was now thoroughly famous.
After all, obtaining first place in the first round might be luck, but achieving the sa result in the second round proved that he had the strength of at least the top ten.
Xu Ping’an smiled, very satisfied with this trial.
His cultivation had improved considerably this ti.
Thus, he felt a certain confidence in the competition for the five spots.
With his previous strength, he was ultimately lacking.
"Congratulations, Junior Brother Ping’an, on breaking through to the Fifth Rank," Li Qingyi said with a smile as she approached.
"You’re not bad either, having broken through to the Fifth Rank, Third Layer Realm," Xu Ping’an replied with a smile.
Li Qingyi gave a slight smile; she hadn’t broken through inside the tower.
Instead, she had broken through outside, after the trial had ended.
Otherwise, she could have reached a higher rank.
"How about it, do you feel confident now?" Xu Ping’an asked with a smile.
"Not yet, they are all very strong, but there are still three days until the third round. I should have so confidence after three days," Li Qingyi said solemnly.
Xu Ping’an nodded.
Breaking into the top five was indeed quite difficult for Li Qingyi.
"I believe you can do it, but don’t put too much pressure on yourself," Xu Ping’an said.
Li Qingyi nodded.
Just then, Zhou ngyue walked over.
Li Qingyi gave Zhou ngyue a cold glance, her brows furrowing slightly.
"Junior Brother Ping’an, I’m going back to cultivate," Li Qingyi withdrew her gaze, then turned and left, brushing past Zhou ngyue.
Zhou ngyue looked back at Li Qingyi, her expression extrely grave.
Just now, she had felt a strong murderous intent.
If Xu Ping’an hadn’t been there, Li Qingyi might have really tried to kill her.
Thinking about how she once lived in Li Qingyi’s shadow, and now, even though she had beco the Saintess of the Hehuan Sect, it was still the sa, which made Zhou ngyue feel extrely unwilling.
"You don’t need to feel unwilling. To beco strong, she has probably put in more effort than you can imagine. Not all geniuses are born out of thin air," Xu Ping’an noticed Zhou ngyue’s look and said with a cold laugh.
Xu Ping’an was more aware of Li Qingyi’s hard work than anyone else.
Previously, to beco stronger, she had been cultivating day and night.
Now, to keep up with him, she utilized every mont for cultivation.
Therefore, Li Qingyi’s strength wasn’t solely due to her talent, but also her effort and perseverance.
Of course, he knew that Zhou ngyue would not understand this.
"Are you two together now?" Zhou ngyue asked Xu Ping’an.
"Yes, she’s worth protecting," Xu Ping’an affird.
Zhou ngyue heard these words, her eyes expressing complex emotions.
Once upon a ti, she seed to be Xu Ping’an’s wife.
Unfortunately, now all of that was ruined by her own hands.
Regret?
She did indeed feel so regret.
At present, Xu Ping’an was undeniably dazzling.
"Sigh!"
Taking a deep breath, Zhou ngyue suppressed the overwhelming emotions in her heart and said to Xu Ping’an, "I can give you all the Hehuan Sect’s records on the Seven Major Attributes families; can you help activate my bloodline?"
"First, bring the records to . After the Holy Refinent ends, I can give it a try," Xu Ping’an said with a light chuckle.
He had guessed Zhou ngyue’s intentions early on, so he was not surprised.
Based on his understanding of Zhou ngyue, she would surely agree.
"Give it a try? How do I know you’re not deceiving ?" Zhou ngyue asked anxiously.
"If you don’t trust , you can choose not to make this deal with . What do you think, Zhou ngyue?" Xu Ping’an said, continuing to chuckle.
Zhou ngyue’s expression changed, sowhat uncertain of Xu Ping’an’s intentions.
Was this guy really going to help her?
What if she gave him the information and he went back on his word?
After all, there was deep enmity between them.
Xu Ping’an didn’t speak, just watched Zhou ngyue.
"Fine, I will have soone send the information to you tomorrow, but I hope you’re not deceiving ," Zhou ngyue said sternly.
Xu Ping’an sneered with disdain, "Don’t worry, I still have so credibility. Even if you awaken your bloodline, killing you would be no trouble for . The reason I have spared your life until now is not because I have any feelings for you, but because I believe I can kill you anyti I wish."
Upon hearing his words, Zhou ngyue’s face suddenly changed, and a strong surge of anger rose in her eyes.
"Xu Ping’an, I am the Saintess of the Hehuan Sect. If you kill , don’t expect to live," Zhou ngyue imdiately threatened.
Xu Ping’an laughed scornfully, "Do you think I would be afraid?"
The Hehuan Sect?
A sect with just an Eighth Rank strongman, not enough to make him feel afraid.
It was just that the ti to tear off the façade with them had not yet arrived.
"Zhou ngyue, I know you are amazingly talented, but what does your power amount to in the face of absolute strength?" Zhou ngyue said unwillingly.
Indeed, she had the support of her sect behind her; she had not lost yet.
"Then watch closely, the ’absolute strength’ you speak of will soon be nothing in my eyes, Zhou ngyue, you’re still so narrow-minded," Xu Ping’an said with a light laugh.
Zhou ngyue was unwilling but did not retort.
Although she thought Xu Ping’an was being too arrogant, it was not necessarily impossible.
Possibly, Xu Ping’an might indeed one day beco a force that even their sect could not contend with.
Of course, that day might still be a long ti coming.
In the anti, it was not certain whether Xu Ping’an would survive.
"Send the information tomorrow," Xu Ping’an said lazily, leaving without further ado after dropping that remark.
Zhou ngyue clenched her teeth, looking at Xu Ping’an’s retreating figure with intense unwillingness.
And at that mont, a figure stepped out, looking at Zhou ngyue with a sneer, "What a blind eye you have."
Zhou ngyue looked towards the newcor, discovering that she was also a woman of exceptional beauty.
Especially in terms of figure, she was even more voluptuous than herself.
"Who are you?" Zhou ngyue asked coldly.
The woman chuckled softly, looking down with disdain at Zhou ngyue.
"To ask such a question, you truly are an idiot, but I don’t mind telling you, my na is Song Lingxue," Song Lingxue said.
"Song Lingxue? The genius Artifact Refiner of the Refining Alliance, Song Lingxue?" Zhou ngyue exclaid in surprise.
She didn’t expect that the woman before her was the genius Artifact Refiner girl who had a significant reputation in the imperial city recently.
"It seems you know of . Well, the intelligence of the Hehuan Sect isn’t bad, after all, it isn’t just any man you witches can seduce," Song Lingxue said with a light laugh.
"Song Lingxue, we are strangers to each other, why do you keep insulting ?" Zhou ngyue said angrily.
She was already targeted by Li Qingyi today and looked down upon by Xu Ping’an; and now, even a stranger was against her.
This made her extrely uncomfortable.
"Although we are strangers, we aren’t entirely unrelated. As much as I hate to admit it, you were once married to my master for a day, so you could be considered my half-stepmother," Song Lingxue laughed lightly.
"Stepmother?" Zhou ngyue was stunned.
Her pupils constricted imdiately afterward.
Was Song Lingxue Xu Ping’an’s disciple?
And the widely talked-about Song Lingxue had joined the Refiner Master Qin Feng.
Could it be that Qin Feng was Xu Ping’an?
That was impossible, wasn’t it?
At this thought, Zhou ngyue suddenly felt a bit frightened.
If Xu Ping’an were really Qin Feng, then his current status and position might already be able to contend with the entire Hehuan Sect.
Zhou ngyue was completely stunned.
Song Lingxue, however, shook her head in disdain and left.
Truly blind.
