Chapter 1679: Unbelievable! Lady Yu Actually Called Him "Little Friend"
Lin Moyu cupped his hands and bowed to Lady Yu, "Junior greets Lady Yu." Lin
Lady Yu chuckled softly, "Little friend Lin is still so polite. Once this matter is over, let's meet again another day."
After saying this, Lady Yu took light steps and gracefully left, her fragrance lingering in the air.
At this moment, there was still more than a day before the secret realm would truly open. The area of the secret realm had not yet completely stabilized, and the energy inside was slowly recovering.
Once the energy fully stabilizes, the secret realm will open.
A few minutes after Lady Yu left, everyone finally came back to their senses.
All eyes were once again focused on Lin Moyu. Lady Yu had just called Lin Moyu "little friend." This was practically addressing him as an equal. What kind of status did Lady Yu have to address Lin Moyu as an equal?
Especially the members of the Yu family, each one looked at Lin Moyu in disbelief.
They couldn't understand why their ancestor would address a God King as an equal.
No matter how talented this God King was, he was still just a God King.
What kind of existence was Lady Yu? If others didn't know, the Yu family certainly did.
She was an existence that surpassed the God Sovereign level.
This matter was too fantastical for them to accept.
Lin Moyu became even more mysterious in everyone's eyes.
Previously, Xiao Sheng and the Qingjian Daoist had called Lin Moyu their brother, which was within their understanding.
That was mutual admiration between geniuses, and Lin Moyu would eventually become a God Sovereign.
But Lady Yu calling him "little friend" completely overturned their understanding.
Especially those God Sovereigns who vaguely knew Lady Yu's level, their shock was far greater than others.
What kind of noble existence was Lady Yu? She wouldn't even greet a peak God Sovereign.
Among the Yu family members who had just knelt before her, several were God Sovereigns.
In Lady Yu's eyes, God Sovereigns were nothing, let alone a God King, who might not even be considered a shrimp.
"Who exactly is Lin Moyu, and why does Lady Yu address him as an equal?"
"It can't be his cultivation level. Could it be because of Lin Moyu's talent?"
"Is it because of his talent in clearing secret realms? If that's the case, it makes sense. As far as I know, the great figures are very concerned about clearing secret realms."
"Yes, I've heard that too. The great figures seem to be looking for something, and those things are hidden in the secret realms."
"It seems Lin Moyu caught the attention of the great figures because of his ability to clear secret realms." The God Sovereigns finally found a reason that made sense to them.
Unlike the God Kings, even though the God Sovereigns were shocked, they didn't show it.
Years of experience had made the God Sovereigns more composed.
Most God Sovereigns generally had families.
Usually, they were the heads of their families, accustomed to making decisions, and naturally wouldn't show their emotions like young people.
Xiao Sheng gave a thumbs up, "Brother Lin, I don't admire anyone else, but I admire you!"
The Qingjian Daoist also raised his wine gourd, "I feel like I'm riding on your coattails."
Lin Moyu laughed, "I was just lucky."
Xiao Sheng didn't believe Lin Moyu's words, "Then tell me what kind of luck it was. Don't tell me you didn't know that was Lady Yu."
Lin Moyu recounted the private commission task from Lady Yu in detail.
He mentioned the world that belonged only to the soul.
Xiao Sheng and the Qingjian Daoist were stunned. They were familiar with the Vermilion Bird battlefield but had never heard of such a place.
Xiao Sheng asked, "Are there many such hidden areas?"
Lin Moyu said he didn't know, "It was Senior Zhu who took me there. I don't know if there are other hidden areas."
The Qingjian Daoist said, "Lady Yu must have seen Brother Lin's potential."
Xiao Sheng nodded in agreement, "Indeed, especially Brother Lin's potential in clearing secret realms. It's truly unmatched."
Lin Moyu smiled, "You two brothers, please stop flattering me. If you keep this up, I'll be too embarrassed to show my face."
The Qingjian Daoist waved his hand, "It's not flattery; it's a fact."
"If you want to hear flattery, just listen to those people outside."
Indeed, among the God Sovereigns and God Kings present, three out of every five sentences were about Lin Moyu.
Lin Moyu felt a bit helpless. He couldn't control what people said.
At this moment, Luo Feiyu cautiously asked, "Senior, what level is Lady Yu?"
Xiao Sheng glanced at him, "You're from the Luo family of the Wine God, right?"
Luo Feiyu nodded, "Yes, senior, do you know my grandfather?"
Xiao Sheng said in a low voice, "An elder in my family once knew the Wine God. As for Lady Yu's identity, you can ask your grandfather when you go back. He knows, but whether he'll tell you is another matter."
Luo Feiyu didn't ask further. He was sensible enough to know that if it weren't for Lin Moyu, Xiao Sheng wouldn't even talk to him.
Xiao Sheng's arrogance was well-known.
The Qingjian Daoist chuckled, "Curiosity is a good thing. Just remember that Lady Yu is an existence that surpasses the God Sovereign level, a true top powerhouse of our human race. That's all you need to know."
Luo Feiyu nodded vigorously, remembering the Qingjian Daoist's words.
At this moment, Lin Moyu's gaze went past the Qingjian Daoist, looking behind him.
The Qingjian Daoist also seemed to sense something.
Mu Xiang, carrying a fragrant breeze, flew over.
She stopped ten meters away from them and slowly bowed to the Qingjian Daoist, "Disciple of the 3762nd generation of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Mu Xiang, greets Uncle Qingjian."
The Qingjian Daoist was also from the Heavenly Sword Sect, a fellow disciple of Mu Xiang but of an older generation.
Mu Xiang first saluted him, then saluted Lin Moyu and the others.
The entire process was very proper, without a single flaw.
The Qingjian Daoist asked, "What is it?"
Mu Xiang seemed to know the Qingjian Daoist's personality and didn't beat around the bush, "I want to follow Uncle Qingjian and learn the way of the Qingjian."
Mu Xiang stood straight, carrying a long sword on her back. Unlike other cultivators who usually put their swords away and only took them out when needed, Mu Xiang always carried her sword on her back, without a scabbard.
A sharp long sword continuously emitted a fierce sword aura.
This is a true sword cultivator.
Although they also mastered laws, they relied more on their own swordsmanship.
They had a law that outsiders didn't understand, the Sword Heart Law.
Even in some special areas, without external power, true sword cultivators could still display astonishing combat power.
The Qingjian Daoist was such a person, and so was Mu Xiang.
The Qingjian Daoist looked at Mu Xiang, "You know I'm looking for a successor?"
"Yes."
"Do you know my requirements for a successor are very strict?"
"I want to try."
The Qingjian Daoist looked Mu Xiang up and down.
Mu Xiang was very beautiful, with a graceful figure, but her gentle face exuded the sharpness of a sword.
The Qingjian Daoist looked at her for a few seconds, "After the secret realm ends, come find me at the sect."
"Yes, Uncle!" Mu Xiang was overjoyed and bowed before leaving.
Xiao Sheng curiously asked, "Brother Qingjian, I see this girl is about to become a God Sovereign. Why does she want to be your successor?"
The Qingjian Daoist shook his head, "Not my successor, but the successor of the Qingjian way."
"It's a bit complicated, involving some matters within our sect. Let's not talk about it."
