Luo Xiu really didn't have the energy to waste on Ma Muyang's nonsense, so he directly ignored him and walked straight towards Luo Xier in the line.
Seeing Luo Xiu approaching, Luo Xier quickly made room for him to join the line.
She puffed her cheeks slightly and said via Divine Sense Communication, "What have you been up to these days? I thought you weren't going to co."
Luo Xiu smiled and replied via Divine Sense, "If I didn't co, what would happen to your championship?"
Luo Xier snorted cutely, muttering, "Even without you, with my strength... plus the power of this damned parrot, winning the championship is not impossible."
At this mont, Lao Ba on her shoulder flapped its wings and said to Luo Xiu in a very serious tone, "Disappearing without a trace whenever you like, you better not be so naughty next ti!"
Luo Xiu glanced at Lao Ba and asked via Divine Sense, "So, what have you been up to during this ti?"
"Hmph!"
Luo Xier looked indignant, "Talking about it makes mad, this stupid bird is just a big glutton, it's nearly eaten all my savings away!"
Hearing this, Lao Ba decisively turned its head to look elsewhere, pretending it didn't hear anything.
Only then did Luo Xiu realize that Lao Ba had grown much fatter compared to the last ti they t.
At this mont, Luo Xier suddenly raised her head proudly towards Luo Xiu, her face full of arrogance, "Bai Haoran, let tell you, through my efforts these days, this Miss is now in the Dao Jade Fourth Realm!"
"Is that so? You're quite impressive."
"Hey, why do you sound so perfunctory? Can't you even pretend to be a bit shocked?"
"..."
During their Divine Sense conversation, Luo Xiu suddenly frowned, looking at the giant turtle floating in the air far outside the arena.
Sitting on the broad back of the giant turtle was a sedan, and through the lightly fluttering transparent curtain at the front of the sedan, Luo Xiu saw a familiar face.
Even with her appearance changed, she was still so beautiful.
That cold and noble deanor seemingly made all n in the world bow their heads.
"Xi Yue... Could she be here to watch the sword tournant as well?"
Luo Xiu lightly frowned, pondering silently.
At this mont, he also felt discomfort in his heart, as if being pricked by needles.
It was like sothing he loved dearly had been lost, only to be regained with difficulty, yet now he found that soone else had picked it up, and he couldn't take it back.
In the sedan on the turtle's back, Lin Xiyue was held in the arms of the short and fat Li Ruiting.
The two were inseparable, incredibly intimate, like a pair of newlywed couples deeply in love.
As Luo Xiu looked at Lin Xiyue, Lin Xiyue also turned her gaze towards Luo Xiu.
Their eyes, thus, t across the vast distance.
...
"So, he is Bai Haoran."
In the sedan.
Lin Xiyue withdrew her gaze, murmuring softly.
Li Ruiting, embracing her slim waist, asked, "Why, are you interested in him?"
Lin Xiyue shook her head gently, not speaking.
She just rembered that night, the mysterious young man who appeared at the Lake Pavilion, and the gentle and familiar look in his eyes.
Li Ruiting laughed, "But to be honest, this Bai Haoran was able to walk out of the Sword Forest in less than an hour, and even caught the attention of the Highland Sword God himself to take him as a disciple. I am quite looking forward to see what he will display in the sword tournant."
Lin Xiyue looked aningfully at this man who was not Li Ruiting, asking, "Could it be that Sister is also interested in him?"
Li Ruiting said, "A talent like this, bringing him into our Shen Luo Comrce Guild would be a great thing, wouldn't it?"
Lin Xiyue was expressionless, "It's just a pity that he's already caught the eye of the Highland Sword God. As a comrce guild that does business, how can we compete with the Highland Sword God to recruit people?"
"That's true, so we should just peacefully focus on making money and avoid creating trouble."
"..."
On the high stage.
Luo Xiu withdrew his gaze from the distant sedan, trying to calm the stabbing pain in his heart.
Beside him, Luo Xier noticed Luo Xiu's gaze and said softly, "The person in that sedan is Miss Lin from the Shen Luo Comrce Guild."
Luo Xiu collected his thoughts and asked, "Do you know her?"
"Yes, I even shared a table and had a al with her."
Luo Xiu wasn't surprised by this, as he knew Luo Xier's true identity.
The Little Princess of the Heaven Azure Empire, having a al with a guild president, is nothing out of the ordinary.
"Her na is Lin Wansuo, and she's very beautiful. Besides the Empress and the Holy Maiden, and that fierce woman in the Sky Mastiff Knights, plus this Miss, there's no other beauties in the Lingtian Plateau comparable to her."
Hearing this, Luo Xiu just smiled without speaking.
Lao Ba couldn't help but mock, "For the won you ntioned, Old Ba here agrees. But what does this have to do with you? Can't we have so dignity?"
Luo Xier glared fiercely at Lao Ba, then looked at Luo Xiu with a mysterious face, "Should I introduce Lin Wansuo to you? With your talent and power, you're rightly suited for such a top-tier beauty."
"Alas, but unfortunately, she's already married to Lord Li, and they are a loving couple, so even if I introduce you, it's pointless."
Luo Xiu gently shook his head, not wanting to bother with her.
At this ti, the "Vast Heaven Scroll" suddenly radiated a magnificent light, emanating an indescribable mysterious aura.
It was activated by four hidden White Emperor Strong Ones working together to open this small world.
The young prodigies had already prepared, and upon seeing this, they quickly moved towards the scroll.
Luo Xier glanced at Luo Xiu's profile, "Let's go in too."
Luo Xiu said weakly, "Pull up."
He was so tired that he couldn't even muster the will to fly.
Luo Xier rolled her eyes, "What did you do last night to get this exhausted?"
She grabbed his arm and led him towards the scroll high above.
The scroll was like a space portal; anyone close to it would be absorbed into it, entering the small world contained within the scroll.
That small world was nad "Wanzhang Dongtian"!
Just as they were about to fly into the scroll, Luo Xiu suddenly asked Luo Xier to stop, then turned to scan the young prodigies following them, his eyes filled with extre disdain.
Before he could speak, Lao Ba, who had a good rapport with him, flew onto his shoulder and screeched in its annoying voice, "My children, screw your granddads, your dad is waiting inside, if you dare, co honor your dad!"
Hearing this, the prodigies were stunned, then all glanced at Luo Xiu, filled with the urge to flay Luo Xiu and Lao Ba alive.
At this mont, Luo Xiu smiled calmly and said, "All you trash seated here, why not just forfeit, to avoid wasting ti?"
Hearing Luo Xiu's words, Luo Xier's face turned pale with fright.
She had been guessing why Luo Xiu suddenly stopped, never expecting that it was to provoke publicly.
"Bai Haoran, are you crazy?!"
Luo Xier, filled with urgency, hurriedly pulled Luo Xiu into the scroll to enter Wanzhang Dongtian.
At this mont.
The young prodigies who hadn't entered Wanzhang Dongtian yet were furious, staring fiercely at the spot where Luo Xiu had just vanished.
"Damn, that bastard is too arrogant!"
"Provoking us publicly, does he want to die?!"
"Dear fellow Daoists, once we enter Wanzhang Dongtian, let's take him down together!"
"Alright! It's settled!"
"..."
anwhile.
Summit of Heavenly Plains.
In the Saintess Palace.
Luo Qingxian watched the real-ti scene through the light curtain with a peculiar expression.
The reckless behavior of "Bai Haoran" earlier seed brainless, but those who understood knew he was purposely attracting hostility.
Could it be that he really had such confidence in his own strength?
Moreover, Luo Qingxian also felt that the black bird and this Bai Haoran bore a strong resemblance to the one person and one bird she once knew in the Divine Oracle Cave Heaven.
