“I’m willing! I’m willing! I’m willing!” The moment Wang Fei Xuan’s words left her mouth, Liu Jian quickly replied as though he was afraid that he would lose the chance of cooperating with Wang Fei Xuan and Ling Tian if he was late to reply.

What a joke!

He had everything to gain and nothing to lose by entering the Saint Martial Secret Zone together with Wang Fei Xuan and Ling Tian. Unless his head had been kicked by a donkey, he would not reject this request at all.

“Since you’re willing, then it’s confirmed. However, there’s still one more thing you need to do,” Wang Fei Xuan nodded indifferently as she looked at Liu Jian and said, “You should know Ren Fei from the Sky Hurdle Mansion, right?”

“Yes, I do.” Liu Jian quickly nodded. At the same time, he looked at Wang Fei Xuan with a baffled expression. He thought to himself, ‘Don’t tell this Young Miss actually wants me to teach Ren Fei a lesson to prove my loyalty as a condition to join her and Ling Tian?’

He had also heard of the matter of Ren Fei pursuing Wang Fei Xuan in the past. He did not think Ren Fei would be successful, and he was proven right. It was just like he had expected, Ren Fei and those who had pursued Wang Fei Xuan were all beaten to a pulp by her.

Upon hearing Wang Fei Xuan mentioning Ren Fei, his first thought was this Young Miss must have been dissatisfied with only beating him into a pulp previously and wanted him to beat him up again.

‘Ren Fei, I’m sorry.’ Liu Jian quickly made up his mind. In order to cooperate with Wang Fei Xuan and Ling Tian, he would turn against and offend Ren Fei.

However, the words that left Wang Fei Xuan’s mouth next stunned him immediately. He realized he had misunderstood her intention.

“Go look for Ren Fei, and ask him if he’s willing to join our group of three as well. If he’s willing, ask him to prepare himself and compete for the spot to enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone. If he can’t even earn a spot, he’s not qualified to join forces with us. If he’s unwilling, bring him to Ling Tian so he can refuse Ling Tian directly,” Wang Fei Xuan said.

“Ask Ren Fei to join us as well?” Liu Jian frowned. Ren Fei’s strength was even worse than his.

To be honest, if Wang Fei Xuan did not come looking for him today, he would not have considered Ren Fei even if he was considering joining forces with other people. He was considering those Saint Stage geniuses who were on par or even more powerful than him. Naturally, those Saint Stage geniuses who were more powerful than him might not necessarily want to cooperate with him as well.

After all, benefits were everywhere in the Saint Martial Secret Zone so nobody would be willing to work with somebody weaker and let those weaker than them partake in their gains.

It was precisely because of this, that when Wang Fei Xuan came to look for him to join forces, he was beside himself with joy.

“What? We didn’t even look down on you, and you’re looking down on Ren Fei?” When Wang Fei Xuan saw Liu Jian frowned, how could she possibly not know what he was thinking? An expression of disdain appeared on her face.

Liu Jian felt a little guilty when she heard her words.

Indeed.

With Wang Fei Xuan and Ling Tian’s strength, they did not even look down on him. What right did he have to look down on Ren Fei?

“Miss Fei Xuan,” Liu Jian took a deep breath and finally asked after seemingly mustering up all his courage, “With yours and Ling Tian’s strength, both of you will definitely make a clean sweep of everything if you cooperate. Why would two of you join forces with Ren Fei and me? Moreover, bringing us along might even hinder both your progress. Can you please tell me why?”

As one of the two most powerful people among the younger generations in the Raging Wave Mansion, Liu Jian was, naturally, not an idiot. Ling Tian and Wang Fei Xuan were not bringing them along out of the goodness of their hearts, there must be a reason behind it.

He really wanted to know the reason. However, he did not think Wang Fei Xuan and Ling Tian wanted to harm them either. Based on Wang Fei Xuan and Ling Tian’s strength, they did not have to go to such great lengths if they wanted to harm them.

“I’m not the reason. If it’s up to me, I wouldn’t be working with two excess baggage.” Wang Fei Xuan was a straightforward woman. Her words were very blunt.

Liu Jian did not get mad either. Instead, he merely smiled wryly. “Then, in this case, the reason must be Ling Tian… May I ask Miss Fei Xuan if Ling Tian told you the reason?”

“He didn’t go into details, but he said he owes some favors to your seniors. Due to this reason, he wants to repay them by using this opportunity when we enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone. You two are really lucky. With him on your side, perhaps, both of you might even encounter high-grade Divine Ability Relic in the Saint Martial Secret Zone,” Wang Fei Xuan replied nonchalantly.

“Don’t forget the thing I asked you to do.” After leaving behind this message, she left after passing on the task of inviting Ren Fei into their group to Liu Jian.

Naturally, Liu Jian did not dare to dally with the task that had been given to him by Wang Fei Xuan. He instantly went to find Ren Fei and told him about joining forces with Wang Fei Xuan and Ling Tian.

“Miss Fei Xuan came to look for us to join forces?” When Ren Fei heard Liu Jian’s words, his eyes brightened immediately. He smiled so widely that his eyes could hardly be seen as he said, “Seems like Miss Fei Xuan still thinks about the old times. As it turns out, my efforts in pursuing her are not in vain. With Miss Fei Xuan’s care toward me, it seems like she has me in her heart. Maybe if I was a little more persistent previously, she might already be my woman. However, it doesn’t seem like it’s too late now. Since she looked for me to join forces, then it must mean she’s interested in me. Perhaps, if I put in more effort, I’ll be able to pierce through the last layer of her defense and make her mine,” Ren Fei muttered to himself. His eyes were as bright as the stars in the sky.

His voice was so loud that Liu Jian could not help overhearing his words, causing the corner of his lips to twitch.

This fellow was just too conceited, right?

However, in order to avoid infuriating Wang Fei Xuan and missing the opportunity of joining forces with them, Liu Jian could not help but say, “Ren Fei, please don’t think too much. The reason we’re asked to join forces is not Miss Fei Xuan’s wish. According to her words, she had no intention of bringing us two excess baggage along at all.”

“It’s not Miss Fei Xuan’s wish?” Liu Jian’s words were akin to a pail of cold water that was splashed on Ren Fei, causing him to wake up from his dream immediately. “… I-It’s that Ling Tian’s wish? But I don’t know him.”

“I don’t know him either.” Liu Jian smiled wryly. “However, according to Miss Fei Xuan, it seems like he owes our seniors a favor. Due to this reason, he plans to repay the favor when we enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone…”

“I see…” Ren Fei finally understood. “In this case, this is a good thing. With Ling Tian’s prowess, if we cooperate with him, we’ll definitely obtain a Divine Ability Relic that’s not too bad.”

“Indeed.” Liu Jian expressed his agreement.

Time continued to pass by quietly.

Perhaps, it was due to Ren Fei and Liu Jian’s joining forces with them that pressured Wang Fei Xuan. She actually successfully broke through to the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage before the day to compete for a spot to enter the Saint Martial Secret Zone arrived.

After she had broken through to the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage, her confidence was, naturally, greatly boosted.

Even in the entire Mystical Sky Mansion, there were only a few people who were at the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage below the age of forty. Currently, she was also on that list. Due to this reason, she could not help but feel a little proud.

“Ling fellow, I’ve just made a breakthrough so let’s have a friendly match.” After making a breakthrough, Wang Fei Xuan immediately went to look for Duan Ling Tian.

“You’ve made a breakthrough?” Duan Ling Tian was also slightly surprised over Wang Fei Xuan’s breakthrough. He already knew she was an Early Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator before this. A Martial Cultivator at the Early Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator who was below the age of forty. Moreover, she was a female cultivator. This could be considered rare.

However, Wang Fei Xuan had made another breakthrough?

Duan Ling Tian had to admit that among all the young females he had seen, Wang Fei Xuan was only inferior to Ke’er’s sister.

“If I don’t make a breakthrough, I’m really afraid that two excess baggage might drag us down!” Wang Fei Xuan snorted

“Looks like you still don’t believe in me.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head and smiled before asking again, “Are you sure you want to have a friendly match with me?”

“Of course! I also want to know how wide is the gap between us now that I’ve made a breakthrough.” Wang Fei Xuan nodded eagerly.

“Come then.” Duan Ling Tian nodded and welcomed Wang Fei Xuan’s attack with a calm expression.

Wang Fei Xuan was not modest as she made the first move. After her Territory had consolidated, typhoon-like attacks charged at Duan Ling Tian as it covered the sky. It was as though she intended to defeat him in one blow.

Faced with Wang Fei Xuan’s attack, Duan Ling Tian smiled indifferently as he mobilized the Sun True Origin inside his body in movement that was neither hurried nor slow.

Soon after, Sun True Origin appeared on the surface of his body before transforming into faint golden sword rays that revolved around him as they flew swiftly. This was a defensive technique cast using Duan Ling Tian’s Sun True Origin, the Sovereign Heart Sword, and the defensive martial tactic, Colossal Arrow Bell, that he had cultivated previously.

Naturally, the defensive technique he was using now was much more powerful than the plain Colossal Arrow Bell.

He had intentionally chosen a name for this defensive technique —

Colossal Sword Bell!

It sounded the same phonetically but it was a completely different word.

(T/N: The word “arrow 箭” and “sword 剑” are two different words that have the same pronunciation and tone in Mandarin)

As he stood there, his body emanated a faint golden light as golden sword rays revolved around him as they continued flying swiftly, looking like streaks of golden amulets from afar. They formed a layer of powerful defensive light shield that seemed to be able to defend against everything.

Finally, Wang Fei Xuan’s overwhelming attack landed on Duan Ling Tian.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

…

Wang Fei Xuan was an Intermediate Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator currently. Her attacks slashed through the sky and caused a series of explosions in the air.

Her attacks crashed onto the golden light shield on the surface of Duan Ling Tian’s body violently like a typhoon.

Crack!

At this moment Wang Fei Xuan gave a delicate shout. Her attack turned even more intense.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

…

Meanwhile, the golden light shield on Duan Ling Tian’s body surface began to tremble as well.

However, upon closer inspection, one would see that the streaks of golden rays that were flying rapidly were still flying in their original trajectories despite the trembling earlier. Moreover, their speed did not seem to be affected at all.
