"This guy, at such a ti, still can't forget about wooing won!"
Jun Tieshu's face showed a faint smile. As a talent from Firewood Valley, he had a rather good relationship with Song Jianzi and knew a bit about the woman his junior liked.
Although Lv Ya from the Lv Family was just a young lady from a small family in Wuchuan City, her talent was not much inferior to so geniuses from first-class forces. At such a young age, she had already cultivated to the Origin Seeking Realm Early Stage.
Jun Tieshu also knew that Song Jianzi had visited Wuchuan City several tis to see the beauty, but for so reason, despite being a talent from Firewood Valley, Lv Xiaoman never gave a clear response, leaving Song Jianzi quite frustrated.
Regarding this, Jun Tieshu always found it amusing. For talents from first-class forces like them, many won would actively approach them, unlike Song Jianzi who repeatedly faced obstacles with Lv Xiaoman.
This ti, however, Jun Tieshu was quite confident in Song Jianzi, because compared to a few months ago, Song Jianzi had already broken through to the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage.
On this Continent, strength really speaks loudest. Previously, Song Jianzi was only one small realm above Lv Xiaoman, so her hesitation was understandable.
But now, with a two-small realm difference, a young girl from Wuchuan City probably couldn't resist such charisma.
"Hmm?"
However, when Jun Tieshu was about to shift his gaze from Lv Xiaoman back to the place where Wu Tong and the others were unlocking the seal, his peripheral vision suddenly caught a sowhat familiar figure.
"It's him? Why... Why is he here too?"
This glance stirred up a storm in Jun Tieshu's heart, for he would likely never forget that rough-clothed youth who once left him with an unforgettable impression at Xuanyin Cave of Xuanyin Hall.
What Jun Tieshu saw at this mont was naturally Yun Xiao. If before the trip to Xuanyin Hall he felt indifferent about the youth who was only famous at the ridian Refining Master Association, now he truly had a sense of awe.
Jun Tieshu only had the cultivation of the Peak of Seeking Origin Realm, yet at the seventh level of Xuanyin Cave, Yun Xiao single-handedly resisted the coalition forces and even seriously injured half-step Earth Realm Su Jian and Gu Changsheng.
If these feats were not enough to be shocking, Yun Xiao then fought against countless Strange Spirits alone—including a Ninth-Order Low-Level Strange Spirit—ending in a successful escape, which was absolutely astounding.
After the trip to Xuanyin Cave, Jun Tieshu knew he would never be a match for that rough-clothed youth; he had already raised Yun Xiao's danger level higher than that of peerless geniuses like Long Xiwawa and Gu Changsheng.
Moreover, from a certain perspective, Yun Xiao had a life-saving grace toward them, the geniuses. If Yun Xiao hadn't stayed behind to stop the Ninth-Order Strange Spirit, none of the geniuses who entered Xuanyin Cave would have escaped.
Thus, upon seeing Yun Xiao now, Jun Tieshu's mind beca extrely complex, though he wasn't overly worried. After all, there was no deep grudge between Firewood Valley and Yun Xiao, unlike Spirit Fighting Comrce or Killing Heart Sect. He believed Yun Xiao wouldn't trouble him for no reason.
At this point, everyone's attention was on Zhang Daohe and others. Except for Jun Tieshu, who noticed Yun Xiao because of Song Jianzi's movent, figures like Long Xiwawa, Nie Xiaosheng, Zhao Ling, who knew Yun Xiao, didn't realize that soone familiar to them had appeared on the scene.
...
Song Jianzi, one of the top talents in Firewood Valley, with cultivation talent only second to a few top demons like Jun Tieshu, had recently broken through to Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage, making him feel extrely proud.
Once, by chance, when Song Jianzi passed through Wuchuan City, he inadvertently saw Lv Family's young lady, Lv Xiaoman, and imdiately fell into infatuation, even visiting to propose marriage twice.
However, Lv Xiaoman was sowhat peculiar previously. Confident in her beauty, she neither directly agreed to the talents from Firewood Valley nor outright refused, which left Song Jianzi longing and restless.
In such circumstances, Song Jianzi believed that Lv Xiaoman looked down on his Origin Seeking Realm Middle Stage cultivation, so he returned to Firewood Valley to focus on cultivation, finally breaking through to Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage a few months ago.
However, the incident at Yanji Lake occurred shortly after, preventing Song Jianzi from heading to Wuchuan City and instead being taken to Yanji Mountain Range by Elder Wu Tong. He didn't expect to coincidentally et Lv Xiaoman again by Yanji Lake.
"Xiao Man!"
Song Jianzi, walking forward, only had eyes for Lv Xiaoman, completely ignoring Tang Gu and Lv Family Head Lv An beside her, let alone the inconspicuous rough-clothed youth.
To be honest, Song Jianzi had heard Yun Xiao's na so often lately that he was almost tired of it, but he had never truly t the genius whose fa was at its peak. At this mont, how could he have the mind to pay attention to anyone else?
"Brother Song..."
Upon seeing this Firewood Valley genius, Lv Xiaoman's gaze flickered slightly, and after softly responding, she glanced at the coarse-clothed youth beside her.
To be honest, after surviving the ambush from Tiger Roar Manor that night, Lv Xiaoman's mindset had changed, and compared to the genius from Firewood Valley, Yun Xiao beside her was undoubtedly more dazzling.
No matter if Song Jianzi had broken through to the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage, it was only equivalent to the cultivation level of Ren Qian and Pan Lianhu at that ti. anwhile, the sa realm Ren Qian was killed by Yun Xiao with just a kick.
Even if the genius from Firewood Valley was stronger than a loose cultivator like Ren Qian, there was a limit. In Lv Xiaoman's view, Song Jianzi was definitely not a match for Yun Xiao.
Everything fears comparison. Previously, although Lv Xiaoman toyed with the n around her, she knew in her heart she might have to accept Song Jianzi from Firewood Valley. After all, among the young talents, Song Jianzi was already considered one of the best.
However, upon encountering the more radiant Yun Xiao, Lv Xiaoman's heart had already turned toward this coarse-clothed youth, feeling that other geniuses were unimpressive.
Perhaps only the most exceptional talents from the four top forces might contend with Yun Xiao?
But such level of talents would never fancy a re Lv Family lady from Wuchuan City, unlike Song Jianzi, and thus Lv Xiaoman never dared to hope.
"Who is he?"
While Lv Xiaoman glanced at Yun Xiao, Song Jianzi finally noticed this ordinary-looking coarse-clothed youth, feeling a sudden sense of crisis and imdiately asked, sounding stern.
Previously, Song Jianzi had visited Wuchuan City several tis, encountering those young talents interested in Lv Xiaoman, but never felt any threat.
Back then, even with Song Jianzi at the Origin Seeking Realm Middle Stage, the biggest threat to him was Lv Xiaoman's senior, Tang Gu, due to their close brother-sister-like relationship more than any ridian Qi cultivation threat.
Now that Song Jianzi had broken through to the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage, he believed no one posed a threat anymore. Certainly, soone like Su Jian or Gu Changsheng wouldn't compete for Lv Xiaoman, right?
Yet, upon seeing this seemingly harmless coarse-clothed youth, Song Jianzi's heart inexplicably tightened.
Of course, this was mainly due to Lv Xiaoman's attitude. In the past, facing young talents, she had never shown such expressions.
The cautious deanor even when speaking with unfamiliar n highlighted the coarse-clothed youth's high status in Lv Xiaoman's heart, making Song Jianzi's inquiry rather unfriendly.
"Who are you?"
For a youth at the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage, Yun Xiao naturally wasn't too bothered, but due to the hostile tone, his expression didn't improve as he imdiately lifted his head and retorted.
"Star Brother, this is Song Jianzi from Firewood Valley, Brother Song!"
To Song Jianzi's earlier inquiry, Lv Xiaoman didn't respond, but to Yun Xiao's question, she introduced without hesitation, causing Song Jianzi's expression to darken.
"Firewood Valley? Jun Tieshu's junior?"
Hearing this, Yun Xiao slightly startled. Among the Three Valleys, he knew two people: Elder Wu Tong from the Countries Hidden Dragon Conference, and the top talent Jun Tieshu from Firewood Valley he once encountered in Xuanyin Cave.
Yet, not even Jun Tieshu mattered to Yun Xiao, so how could he care about Song Jianzi from the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage? With Yun Xiao's current strength, this guy couldn't withstand a single punch or palm from him.
"You know my senior?"
Song Jianzi had never heard of the na Star, nor associated the youth before him with anyone, but if he knew his senior, he might show so respect on behalf of his senior.
"Hardly know him, just a defeated opponent!"
Yun Xiao lightly shook his head, and as soon as he spoke, not only Song Jianzi but also Lv An and Tang Gu beside them turned pale with disbelief. After all, Jun Tieshu was the number one genius in Firewood Valley, a mighty Peak of Origin Seeking Realm expert.
Jun Tieshu's na in Firewood Valley was far more prominent than Song Jianzi's. If Song Jianzi was only known around Firewood Valley, then Jun Tieshu ranked among the top young talents across the entire Tenglong Continent.
Barely second to the extraordinary talents from the four top forces, if Jun Tieshu had pursued Lv Family's hand, perhaps Lv Xiaoman wouldn't struggle as much and would have joyfully married into Firewood Valley.
