Chapter 1094: Chapter 8: The Azure Cloud Sect Disciples Filled with Regret

”Dead! Wang Zhanlong is actually dead!”

Exclamations of shock rang out one after another, with many people staring in astonishment at the events unfolding before them, disbelief written all over their faces.

Wang Zhanlong!

A formidable figure who could overpower even Great Elder level experts over a decade ago; how powerful had he become after all these years?

And yet, he was slain by Lin Feng.

Many speculated about Lin Feng’s strength, guessing he might be capable of challenging Huangfu Qingtian.

In just a few years, Lin Feng had remarkably enhanced his cultivation.

Years ago, when Lin Feng agreed to a ten-year life-and-death duel with Huangfu Qingtian, no one believed he could become Huangfu Qingtian’s match. But now it seemed Lin Feng not only could stand against Huangfu Qingtian, he might even defeat or kill him, considering there’s still five years until their life-and-death duel.

In these five years, Lin Feng could very well surpass him.

...

Amidst countless reverent gazes, Lin Feng returned to the Supreme Peak.

”Let’s go, join the Supreme Peak...” Many people flocked to the Supreme Peak.

Originally, due to Lin Feng’s ten-year life-and-death feud with Huangfu Qingtian, no one expected much of Lin Feng, so his recruitment for the Supreme Peak drew no interest initially.

Now, having slain Wang Zhanlong and made a name for himself, naturally, many were eager to pledge to him.

Liu Ge and Ma Yong stopped everyone. Liu Ge said, ”Please withdraw; our Supreme Peak doesn’t recruit anyone.”

”Liu Ge, you, merely a general disciple at Supreme Peak, have the right to stop us? We wish to see Senior Brother Lin; we’re all genuinely here to pledge our loyalty.” An Inner Sect elite disciple sneered.

Immediately, many responded, clearly intending to rush into the Supreme Peak to seek Lin Feng.

Liu Ge’s expression suddenly darkened as he said, ”Where were you when Supreme Peak was recruiting earlier? You all avoided it like the plague, and now, seeing Senior Brother Lin’s powerful cultivation, you’re rushing to join? It’s too late.”

”Presumptuous! How dare a mere general disciple from Supreme Peak speak so insolently to us? Who gave you such courage?” A cold voice came from Liu Jidong, an Inner Sect elite disciple ranked fifth on the Mountain River List, just a step away from entering the Yin Yang Realm.

Liu Jidong had his reasons for reprimanding Liu Ge so harshly.

Liu Ge had been in the Inner Sect for years with mediocre talent and cultivation, with little potential.

In the sect, where strength is paramount, it was perfectly normal for Liu Jidong to reprimand Liu Ge.

Liu Ge’s expression suddenly became grim as he glaringly looked towards Liu Jidong, whom he recognized well.

To be exact, there was some sort of relation between the two.

In their grandfather’s generation, Liu Ge’s family worked for Liu Jidong’s family. When Liu Ge’s grandfather was in his forties, he saved some money, ventured out, and set up a bricklayer’s shop, which gradually prospered.

In reality, Liu Ge and Liu Jidong were of the same clan, but there was no blood relation anymore.

Liu Jidong was a favored son of heaven, while Liu Ge had mediocre talent.

Although from the same place, be it family background, talent, or future prospects, Liu Ge was worlds apart from Liu Jidong.

Previously, Liu Ge suffered much under Liu Jidong but bore it silently, knowing he couldn’t afford to offend Liu Jidong.

Seeing Liu Jidong again arrogantly reprimanding him brought out Liu Ge’s temper. In the past, powerless with just mediocre talent, he’d swallow his pride. But now, as someone in the Yin Yang Realm, how could he continue to endure silently?

Surrounding disciples watched Liu Ge with mocking and scornful eyes, eagerly waiting to see him humiliated.

But at that moment, a terrifying aura erupted from Liu Ge’s body.

Liu Ge’s mana surged forth as he stepped towards Liu Jidong, saying coldly, ”Liu Jidong, who do you think you are to shout in my presence? Do you think I won’t dare to put you in your place?”

”Mana, you, you, you’ve broken through to the Yin Yang Realm...!” Liu Jidong exclaimed in disbelief, trembling all over.

The onlooking disciples were equally stunned.

Liu Ge, with such meager talent, breaking through to the Yin Yang Realm was beyond belief, causing an upheaval within them, their minds unable to settle.

”Kneel and apologize!”

Liu Ge commanded coldly.

With a thud.

How could Liu Jidong dare not kneel?

If Liu Ge were still the useless Liu Ge of the past, speaking to him like this, he could have slapped him dead with one hand.

But now Liu Ge was a Yin Yang Realm cultivator, high and mighty. If he dared defy Liu Ge now, who would speak for him if Liu Ge slapped him dead?

In the face of absolute strength, no status mattered.

Being fifth on the Mountain River List? A rising star? A sect genius?

None of it mattered; Liu Ge was a Yin Yang Realm powerhouse, and regular disciples held no status before someone at the Yin Yang Realm.

”I was wrong, Senior Brother Liu, considering we originated from the same place and the same clan, please just forgive me.” Liu Jidong pleaded with despairs in his voice.

At this point, Ma Yong chimed in, ”Liu Ge, let’s leave it at that. No need to quarrel with them any further.”

Liu Ge nodded. He had thought witnessing the once haughty Liu Jidong kneeling and begging would bring satisfaction, but seeing Jidong on his knees, he felt nothing. It was at that moment Liu Ge realized he was no longer the talentless Liu Ge of the past.

Once someone he had to look up to, Liu Jidong was no longer on the same level as him.

Cultivation determines one’s perspective.

Feeling disenchanted, Liu Ge waved dismissively, saying, ”You can leave; I’m not interested in pursuing this any further.”

Liu Jidong, feeling as if granted amnesty, expressed heartfelt gratitude before hurriedly leaving, no longer daring to stay.

”Supreme Peak doesn’t allow unauthorized entry; anyone daring to trespass won’t be spared,” Ma Yong coldly declared.

Then he left with Liu Ge.

”Even a talentless Liu Ge has broken into the Yin Yang Realm; just now Liu Ge and Ma Yong, it seemed that Ma Yong was taking the lead. Could it be that Ma Yong is also in the Yin Yang Realm?”

”There are only seven people on Supreme Peak. Usually, it’s Ma Yong and Liu Ge handling routine tasks, indicating their status is lowest among them. Does that mean everyone on Supreme Peak surpassed the Yin Yang Realm?”

”My God, that’s really possible. They must have received many cultivation resources from Senior Brother Lin to break through; otherwise, it would have been impossible.”

Many discussed enviously, filled with remorse, questioning why they hadn’t joined Supreme Peak when they had the chance.

The disciples who regretted their choices the most were those who originally went to practice in the Ancient Barbarian Mine with Lin Feng. Back then, when Lin Feng had Wang Hu invite them to join Supreme Peak, only Mo Yuning, Wu Xiu’er, Liu Ge, and Ma Yong joined. The rest declined due to doubts about Lin Feng’s future with his ten-year duel with Huangfu Qingtian. But now, seeing even the talentless Liu Ge achieving the Yin Yang Realm after joining Supreme Peak, one by one, they lamented with regret.

If they had joined Supreme Peak back then, wouldn’t they also possess the power of the Yin Yang Realm now?

But the world doesn’t sell regret medicine; no matter how remorseful or regretful they are, the opportunity to join Supreme Peak has passed.
