Vermilion Bird said softly, "No rush."
He just watched the woman on the ground.
A few seconds later.
The woman on the ground with the wooden sword slowly raised her head, her gaze swept layer by layer past the Source Tower, eventually settling on a certain "middle" level, coincidentally—
This was precisely the level where Vermilion Bird was.
Vermilion Bird knew that, even for the Titled, it wasn’t possible to see through the illusion cast by the Dual Gods.
The "eye contact" between the two was most likely a coincidence caused by the woman tilting her head back and trying to see the farthest distance she could.
But so things happen precisely because of an unforeseeable bit of chance.
...
...
"You’ve been standing below for a long ti, why don’t you co in and have a try?"
Lu Nanjin stood silently for a mont.
A young man walked out slowly from the Source Tower.
He pointed to the high tower behind him, speaking politely and courteously, "Young lady, your strength is impressive. You might have the qualifications to join the Dual Gods Sect and experience its blessed light."
So people, although polite... emit a chilling aura from their core that can be felt even from a hundred ters away.
This person wasn’t truly being courteous with her.
"Sorry, I didn’t co here because I’m interested in the Dual Gods’ blessed light..."
Lu Nanjin replied in a tone that seed equally polite, yet was cold.
She squinted her eyes, gazing at the magic robe worn by this young man, counting the stars engraved on it.
The maximum number of stars on the Source Tower’s Star Envoy is ten.
This man.
Ten stars.
Outside the Source Tower, many Transcendents were coming and going.
Several Transcendents cast curious looks toward the two, and Lu Nanjin could sense that the gaze they held for the young man carried a hint of "awe."
Was this young man a significant figure at the Source Tower?
"Understood."
Vermilion Bird nodded, "You ca here looking for a fight."
"Standing in front of the tower, I always felt puzzled, as if sothing was missing." Lu Nanjin nodded and said, "Now I understand. You’re right. I must be here to fight. I want to find soone formidable enough to spar with."
Vermilion Bird also nodded, "Though the higher-ups instructed us not to cause trouble or any fatalities... since you are challenging , I can’t be blad for what’s to co."
"Whoosh!"
The next mont, Vermilion Bird waved his sleeve, and a crimson fire surge instantly enveloped an area of hundreds of ters... He expanded his domain, obscuring all the onlookers outside from seeing them.
Fire surged fiercely, blazing waves erupted.
The ground they stood on turned into a molten hell in an instant.
"Lu Nanjin."
Vermilion Bird uttered the person’s na in front of him and asked faintly, "Why don’t you just stay obediently in Da Du? Why co to the Source Tower? Do you think you can do sothing here?"
"You know my na, huh." Lu Nanjin chuckled softly.
Her palm had already quietly rested on the handle of her wooden sword.
"You’re not an unknown nobody."
Vermilion Bird smiled, every word from his last sentence paused, "More importantly... the Angel Envoy Qin Ye, who died in Da Du, was my senior brother."
At the ntion of Qin Ye’s na, both moved in unison, their coordination impeccable.
Vermilion Bird’s five fingers flared out, casually fanning, unleashing a skyward sea of fire.
anwhile, Lu Nanjin lunged forward, unleashing her blade. A blade light that had been forged millions of tis finally unsheathed. Instantly, Lan Qie shot through the heavens like a long rainbow, slicing through the raging sea of fire!
Inside the domain, the fire tide shattered, blade light burst everywhere.
Outside the domain, below the Source Tower, everything returned to a state of calm. People ca and went, surrounded by mist.
As if nothing had ever happened.
