Chapter 45

Chapter 45 God damn Ning Chuan! Gather in Cloud State!As the giant turtle swiftly navigated through the ocean towards Yun State, Bai Xiaohang’s thoughts were consumed by the recent events and the people he sought revenge upon.

“Ning Chuan, you’ve really stirred up a hornet’s nest this time,” Bai Xiaohang muttered, his eyes gleaming with a mixture of determination and frustration. “Do you think you can mess with Thousand Faces Pirate Saint Bai Xiaohang and get away with it?”

Meanwhile, in Cloud State, news of the Heavenly Pride list’s release had shaken the entire cultivation world, and the shocking revelations about various cultivators had set off a storm of discussions and debates.

Ning Chuan, unaware of the turmoil his actions had caused, was still deeply engrossed in his cultivation. He was currently in seclusion within a hidden cave, surrounded by a dense atmosphere of spiritual energy.

Inside the cave, Ning Chuan was undergoing a profound transformation. His body was emitting a brilliant and ethereal light as if he were fusing with the surrounding energy. This was the result of him absorbing the power of the grass-word sword intent and integrating it into his own cultivation.

The grass-word sword intent was a tremendous force, and as Ning Chuan integrated it into his own cultivation, his understanding of sword intent reached new heights. He could feel the power surging within him, making his every movement feel sharper and more precise.

Outside the cave, Yun State was also undergoing significant changes. The news of Ning Chuan’s exploits had spread far and wide, and cultivators from different regions flocked to Yun State to witness the latest Heavenly Pride, the young man who had dared to challenge the status quo.

Among these visitors were the Heavenly Pride representatives themselves, each with their own pride and unique aura. Lu Bing, Shi Hao, Bei Han, and others had arrived in Yun State to meet the legendary Ning Chuan.

In a grand hall, Lu Fei Bookseller, dressed in his scholarly robes, sat at a table with a scroll in front of him. He looked at the gathering of Heavenly Prides and other distinguished guests and began to speak.

“Welcome, esteemed Heavenly Prides and guests, to this momentous occasion. We have all gathered here today to witness the unveiling of the top three Heavenly Prides as determined by the Heavenly Pride list. This list, as we all know, has caused quite a sensation across the Nine Mysterious Realm.”

The atmosphere was charged with anticipation as the Heavenly Prides exchanged glances, waiting for the results to be revealed.

“Without further ado, let us reveal the top three Heavenly Prides,” Lu Fei Bookseller declared. Sᴇaʀᴄh the NʘvᴇlFɪre.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

He slowly unrolled the scroll and revealed the names written on it.

“In third place, we have Swordmaster Lu Bing, a figure known for his peerless swordsmanship and the legacy he carries.”

Applause and admiration filled the hall as Lu Bing nodded with a faint smile.

“In second place, we have Bei Han, Swordsman of an ancient lineage, whose resolve and strength have captured the hearts of many.”

Bei Han’s eyes gleamed with pride and determination as he acknowledged the recognition.

“And now, for the top Heavenly Pride—the one who has created ripples across the realm with his audacious actions—Ning Chuan!”

The announcement sent a shockwave through the room. Eyes turned toward Ning Chuan, who was present among the gathering. The atmosphere was a mix of curiosity, excitement, and curiosity.

Ning Chuan, immersed in his cultivation, was startled by the announcement. He emerged from his seclusion and looked around, realizing that all eyes were on him.

Lu Fei Bookseller smiled warmly and said, “Ning Chuan, your courage and determination have earned you the top position on the Heavenly Pride list. You have challenged conventions and defied expectations. Your name will be remembered throughout history.”

Ning Chuan was taken aback, his heart pounding with a mixture of emotions. He had not expected such an outcome when he had embarked on his journey.

Among the Heavenly Prides, various emotions played across their faces—admiration, curiosity, and even a hint of competitiveness. The gathering represented a convergence of fates, each individual with their own story and path.

As Ning Chuan stood there, the weight of his achievements sinking in, he couldn’t help but think about the challenges that lay ahead. His clash with Bai Xiaohang and the repercussions of his actions had set in motion a series of events that were now reaching a critical juncture.

Little did he know that fate was already setting the stage for a confrontation that would change the course of his journey and the lives of those around him. The clash of fates had begun, and the Nine Mysterious Realm would bear witness to the ensuing storm.
