“Even with my current strength, engaging a Heavenly Rank powerhouse might grant me victory, but I fear I won’t escape unscathed. Not to mention, if I face someone even stronger, there’s a risk I could die.” Pei Xuanjing pondered in his mind.
Even though he was fortunate enough to slay a Heavenly Rank powerhouse this time, Pei Xuanjing didn’t grow arrogant but instead became more cautious.
At this moment, he had a rough estimation of his own strength. When confronting a Heavenly Rank powerhouse with their guard down, he could use his Yin Spirit power as a trump card for a decisive kill.
He had already decided that in the future, before he himself broke through to the Heavenly Rank, if he needed to face such powerhouses, he shouldn’t draw out the battle. He should strike decisively and end it quickly.
Like an assassin, killing with a single blow.
If he failed, he would retreat from a distance.
Otherwise, if he got stuck in an endless entanglement, it certainly wouldn’t benefit him.
At this time, it had been a month since Pei Xuanjing had killed Li Tiange and the Heavenly Rank powerhouse.
Though he had killed the Heavenly Rank powerhouse that day, Pei Xuanjing had also suffered considerable injuries. After leaving the battle, he immediately sought out a secret place to begin his healing meditation.
“From now on, there’s no need for training. Maybe it’s time to return to Yunzhong City for secluded cultivation and figure out how to breakthrough.” Pei Xuanjing murmured to himself.
His venture into the Yunzhong Prairie was intended as a training journey for himself. He didn’t expect to encounter a Heavenly Rank powerhouse, saving himself much time.
This encounter allowed Pei Xuanjing to successfully refine his internal and external Gang Qi, taking the final step into the third-tier Gang Qi Realm, flawlessly merging his internal and external Qi into one.
Now, he was standing at the doorstep of the Heavenly Rank. If he could break through the Mysterious Pass, connect with Heaven and Earth, he would truly step into the Heavenly Rank, standing in the highest rank of this world.
As for breaking through the Mysterious Pass to ascend to the Heavenly Rank, Pei Xuanjing saw two paths. After pondering for a while, he chose to focus his energy on secluded cultivation in Yunzhong City, gradually refining his skills.
After all, the other path, while faster, carried a risk of fatal deviation. One careless step could result in complete failure.
In his current situation, Pei Xuanjing naturally wouldn’t freely choose that path.
While Pei Xuanjing was preparing to return to Yunzhong City, he remained unaware of the enormous wave that his actions half a month ago had caused.
Yunzhong City, being the boundary between the Empire and the Prairie, constantly experienced friction. News of fights between the two sides occasionally reached the citizens of Yunzhong County, who had become accustomed to this.
However, this time, no one had expected such a large conflict, with nearly ten thousand of the Da Li cavalry advancing southward, intimidating Yunzhong and seemingly intending to trample the city.
This situation shocked everyone accustomed to the constant friction between the two sides. The attack by the Da Li cavalry had not occurred in nearly a decade.
Though uncertain of the reason, fear was not an option. The County Guard of Yunzhong issued orders, and with the backing of the Black Cloud Knights, they prepared to meet the attack head-on.
The situation was tense, with the clouds of war gathering over Yunzhong City, ready to break out at any moment.
It was at this moment that everyone realized why Da Li had taken such actions.
The leading figure of Da Li’s younger generation, Li Tiange, was dead.
And he was killed by the Pei family’s newly distinguished Young Master Min, on the Prairie.
Upon hearing this news, everybody in Yunzhong County found it hard to believe, assuming it was nonsense.
While they did acknowledge Young Master Min’s talent, being aware of his extraordinary skills and considering him the best of their peers,
They were, like Mr. Pei Laozhu, anticipating next year’s contest in the Capital, hoping Young Master Min would represent the Empire in a duel against Da Li’s prodigy, Li Tiange.
However, no one had seen it coming.
No one had thought that during his training on the Prairie, Young Master Min would encounter Li Tiange and kill him.
This was incredibly shocking to everyone.
Even Mr. Pei Laozhu, who was quite impressed by the news, was lost for words. He had dispatched someone to follow and protect Pei Xuanjing during his training in the Yunzhong Prairie but had been easily shaken off by him.
Just as he was hesitating whether to venture into the Prairie himself to escort Pei Xuanjing, he heard this stunning news. Even though he had a high opinion of Pei Xuanjing, he never expected this result.
The Empire’s Pei Min, at the age of fifteen, defeated Da Li’s top figure of the younger generation, Li Tiange.
This news spread, causing uproar.
However, when they were still shocked, another piece of news was delivered, plunging Yunzhong County into silence.
Not only did Pei Xuanjing defeat Li Tiange in a single move, but he also engaged and killed Li Tiange’s Taoist protector, a Heavenly Rank powerhouse, with his third-tier martial arts strength.
A third – tier martial artist killed a Heavenly Rank martial artist!
This was indeed shocking news.
If they were surprised, but accepting, of Pei Xuanjing’s victory over Li Tiange, This piece of news was simply madness. They all thought Da Li was bluffing.
While a third-tier Gang Qi Realm martial artist could be considered a peak mortal, a hero in the world, and hold a significant position in the army, he was nothing compared to a Heavenly Rank martial artist – they were worlds apart, unfit to be compared to each other.
If a third-tier Gang Qi Realm martial artist could be compared to an eagle soaring in the sky, then a Heavenly Rank martial artist would be like a phoenix flying in the highest heavens. They were fundamentally different, simply incomparable.
Since history has been recorded in this world, there has never been a record of a third-tier Gang Qi Realm martial artist defeating a Heavenly Rank martial artist.
Even the most powerful third-tier Gang Qi Realm martial artist throughout these millenniums, could only hold his ground against a Heavenly Rank martial artist, but there has never been a record of a third-tier Gang Qi martial artist killing a Heavenly Rank martial artist.
However, when the County Guard received a flying eagle letter from the
Imperial Astronomical Observatory, he had no choice but to accept this news.
“Pei family’s Young Master Min from Yunzhong killed Li Tiange in the
Yunzhong Prairie with a single move. Afterward, he fought against Li Tiange’s
Taoist protector. ”
“Young Master Min, only fifteen, used his third- tier Gang Qi Realm power to fight against a Heavenly Rank martial artist and eventually killed him with a terrifying sword technique.”
“Currently, Young Master Min appears to be injured. Promptly bring him back to Yunzhong. Someone will personally escort him to the Capital.’
After reading these messages, the County Guard of Yunzhong’s face turned pale. He had never imagined that it was even possible to kill a Heavenly Rank martial artist at the third-tier Gang Qi Realm.
This was practically unprecedented in history, turning a legend into reality. Such news, when spread, would certainly cause a huge uproar in the world..
