The matter of the chief disciple of the Eighth Summit, Hong Jing, who was at the sixth level of the Divine Sea Realm, being killed by an unknown ordinary disciple with one punch, had caused a huge uproar in the Empyrean Sword Sect.
Everyone was guessing who this ordinary disciple was.
In the end, after many investigations, they discovered that this disciple from the Eighth Summit called Shen Ran had actually been promoted from a servant disciple.
Before this, he was an ordinary disciple of the Ninth Summit.
He was only demoted to a servant because he failed the talent test.
Unexpectedly, he had just become an ordinary disciple again and did such a shocking thing!
Many people wondered if Shen Ran had obtained some extremely huge opportunity.
That was why he had the strength he had today.
And the Eighth Summit Elder, Luo Qifeng, who had personally promoted him, might know the full truth.
Therefore, many people visited him, one after another, wanting to learn the facts from him.
Luo Qifeng looked equally baffled.
He did not expect Shen Ran to do such a ferocious thing after becoming an ordinary disciple.
Luo Qifeng had promoted Shen Ran from a servant disciple to an official disciple because the latter had saved him.
He did not care if the other party had obtained some fortuitous encounter or had unlimited potential.
Speaking of being saved by Shen Ran, it was an embarrassing matter that Luo Qifeng did not want to mention in his life.
Therefore, in the face of countless visitors, Luo Qifeng chose to stay behind closed doors.
Of course, he did not know what was going on with Shen Ran's strange increase in strength.
However, Luo Qifeng still enjoyed the evaluation from the outside world, that he had the acumen to scout talent.
He was prepared to find time to ask Shen Ran what was going on.
…
…
"How can this be! How can this be!"
At the Ninth Summit, Wan Ziling listened to the rumors about Shen Ran and seemed abnormally anxious.
She couldn't figure it out.
Why did a person with ordinary talent, comprehension, temperament, background, and foundation now become so eye-catching?!
He killed the First Senior Brother of the Eighth Summit, who was at the sixth level of the Sea Realm, with a single punch?
Half a month ago, he was only at the sixth level of Qi Refinement. How could his strength be so terrifying in just half a month?
"Could it be that… Shen Ran accidentally obtained a huge opportunity?"
Wan Ziling frowned.
"Mother, if you hadn't demoted Ran, he would still be a disciple of the Ninth Summit."
Wan Qingqing looked unusually disappointed.
Wan Ziling glanced fiercely at her daughter, who didn't understand the atmosphere. "I wonder what kind of opportunity he had. He's already so powerful when he just entered the Eighth Summit."
But so what!
No matter how strong he was now, could he be stronger than Wang Qingxuan? In the past, he was weak and Wang Dao Seed did not notice him.
Now, Shen Ran's name was known by everyone in the Empyrean Sword Sect.
"Perhaps one day, Wang Qingxuan will remember the grudge between the two of them and settle it with him!"
"That's right!" Hearing her mother's words, Wan Qingqing came to a realization. "I have to remind Ran to pay more attention to Wang Qingxuan!"
With that, Wan Qingqing ran out the door.
"Where are you going? Stop right there!"
Wan Ziling followed her out angrily.
…
…
"Your Highness, I've already checked the list. On the day Qian Shu and Zhong You met with an accident, Shen Ran also entered the Grand Myriad Mountains!"
On the second main peak, Wang Qingxuan's residence.
Listening to his subordinate's report, Wang Qingxuan gritted his teeth. "Previously, when I saw that he was only at the sixth level of Qi Refinement, I eliminated him as a suspect. I didn't expect…
In just half a month, he was able to advance from the sixth level of Qi Refinement to the sixth level of the Divine Sea Realm.
That Shen Ran must have obtained some great opportunity.
Now that I think about it, Qian Shu and Zhong You might have fallen into the hands of Shen Ran, who obtained the opportunity."
"Bang!"
Wang Qingxuan suddenly exerted strength and crushed the hard wooden armrest.
"Bring that Shen Ran back for me!"
"Your Highness Dao Seed, you must not! Shen Ran has been in the limelight these few days. If you suddenly touch him, you might be investigated by the sect
After you suddenly killed the suspects on a large scale, the sect has been paying more attention to you.
If your identity is exposed, it won't be worth it!"
His subordinate quickly advised him.
"Then how do you think we should deal with him?" Wang Qingxuan's gaze was cold and filled with killing intent.
The subordinate braced himself against the pressure and said, "Shen Ran is naturally a hidden danger and can't be left alone. However, when he's still in the sect, it's easy for the sect to suspect if we touch him.
However, as a disciple of the Empyrean Sword Sect, he has to leave the sect every month to complete a sect mission.
When that happens, the risk will be minimal. It won't be too late to strike then."
Wang Qingxuan was silent for a moment before he finally said slowly, "Alright, we'll do as you say."
"Send someone to keep an eye on that Shen Ran. As long as he dares to take half a step out of the sect, I'll tear him to pieces!"
"Yes!"
Wang Qingxuan's subordinate kowtowed heavily.
…
…
At the same time, in an ordinary disciple's residence on the Sixth Summit.
An ordinary disciple named Chen Beixuan slowly opened his eyes.
"I, the Reincarnation Emperor, Chen Beixuan, have finally returned to 10,000 years ago!"
