Chapter 12: Senior Li’s Supreme Game

Chapter 12: Senior Li’s Supreme Game

Mu Qianning was somewhat puzzled; before she could speak, Yu Qishui already smiled and said:

"This is Mu Qianning, the Saintess of the Lihuo Sect, her cultivation level is modest, which may seem laughable to the Princess.”

He paused for a moment and continued,

“As for Qian Ning’s master, it’s inconvenient to elaborate on that, and I hope the Princess can forgive me.”

Strictly speaking, Mu Qianning’s master was Wei Yushan, but her cultivation was actually granted by the generosity of Senior Li.

Since Senior Li didn’t formally take Qian Ning as a disciple, he naturally dared not overstep.

Upon hearing this, Fire Spirit’s beautiful eyes flashed with complexity.

Is this what you call a modest cultivation level?

Isn’t this just infuriatingly ridiculous?

After all, she is the Princess of the Fire Country. From a young age, she had unlimited cultivation resources; everything she wanted—be it pills or spiritual essences—was abundant. Moreover, all her teachers are of the Hollow Void Level!

She has only reached the Nascent Soul Eighth Layer, yet in the entire Fire Country, she is absolutely among the top of her peers. Nevertheless, in this remote Southern Territory, there is someone even stronger than her, nearly breaking into Soul Divide?

She felt truly thwarted.

This could definitely be considered the supreme talent of the Fire Country.

At the same time, a thought stirred in her heart.

Yu Qishui just mentioned that it’s inconvenient to disclose Mu Qianning’s master. If her master were anyone present here, what would be the harm in saying so? Could it be that behind the Lihuo Sect, there is a powerful figure?

Perhaps that’s the confidence behind the Lihuo Sect’s audacity to stand up against the Fiery Mountain?

She faintly felt that she had grasped onto something.

"Princess, please, this way to the great hall!”

Wei Yushan gestured with his hand.

Soon after, inside the great hall.

Yu Qishui, Wei Yushan, and the others, sat opposite Fire Spirit.

"May I ask the reason for the Princess’s long journey here?”

Wei Yushan inquired.

Fire Spirit replied,

“Before discussing that, I want to ask—does your sect indeed have a remarkable figure behind the scenes?”

Upon hearing this, the faces of Yu Qishui, Wei Yushan, and the others turned solemn.

This Princess of the Fire Country, how astute she is.

"Even though your Imperial Family is powerful, it is merely a Transcendent Power. In the grand scheme of Senior Li, I fear it is nothing but a mere pawn!” thought they to themselves.

Wei Yushan indifferently responded,

“What relation does this have to the purpose of your visit, Princess?”

Hmph, thinking to inquire about Senior Li? The Royal Family might not be qualified for that.

Fire Spirit smiled slightly and said,

Wei Yushan was also murmuring, saying,

“Perhaps, the reason Senior Li set up this game is to spare the common people from a great disaster?”

Mu Qianning, too, was taken aback for a moment, but then her gaze showed a resolute expression.

She believed that, even in the face of an Evil God, as long as Senior Li was there, surely no turmoil could arise.

After a long while, Yu Qishui and the others gradually regained their composure.

"Although Evil Gods are terrifying, the Princess can rest assured about the strength of that existence!”

Wei Yushan eventually spoke to Fire Spirit.

Fire Spirit couldn’t help but feel amazed in her heart.

Even Evil Gods, the Lihuo Sect can view them so indifferently?

Could it be that behind Lihuo Sect, there really is a Supreme Level figure?

One should know that an Evil God is what a failing Supreme Being becomes while attempting the last step. To speak such words, one must be at least a Supreme Being, and not just any Supreme Being, but one among the elite!

But, in the entire Southern Territory of the Xuantian Realm, Supreme Level powers are few and far between!

The living Supreme Beings exist only in legends, perhaps two or three at most.

Could one of them be standing behind Lihuo Sect?

It’s unimaginable!

"Alright, since you all have this confidence, then I might as well tell you another piece of news.”

Fire Spirit then continued,

“The first thing an Evil God wants to do when descending to a place is slaughter all the living beings there!”

"Because, having touched the Immortal Path, they will be detected by this world. Only by destroying all living beings, creating a Blood Domain, can the Evil God arrive.”

"According to the information we’ve obtained, that Evil God is very likely to descend in this domain in the near future!”

Yu Qishui and the others were greatly alarmed.

Did this mean that in the near future, not only the Southern Fire Country but also the entire Fire Country... would be annihilated?

"If Senior Li’s game is indeed to await the coming of the Evil God, then this news is also very important to him.”

Wei Yushan spoke to Yu Qishui.

Yu Qishui nodded and said,

“This is of great significance, it’s beyond our capability to involve ourselves. What we need to do is tell Senior Li this news!”

Fire Spirit’s heart stirred, so that existence surnamed Li? In the Southern Territory of the Xuantian Realm, which Supreme Being has the surname Li?

She stood up and said,

“May I join you to meet this Senior? Perhaps I can also provide some valuable information for him!”

She was becoming more and more curious about that being!

Yu Qishui thought for a moment and then said,

“Good!”
