About to turn twenty...
At twenty, Ji Yongye... was only at the late stage of gathering Spiritual Energy, and even then, he was already considered an exceptional talent.
But the Tang Rao in front of him, at twenty, had fought his way up to the forty-fourth floor of the Heavenly Ladder.
Between him and Tang Rao, there wasn't just a gap; damn, it was practically a chasm.
Being able to fight all the way up here ans Tang Rao's strength is not inferior to his.
"Little friend Tang Rao, which Sect do you belong to?" Ji Yongye couldn't help but ask.
No matter what Sect Tang Rao was from, he wouldn't want to ss with that Sect in the future.
Having such a monster here makes one truly despair.
"Sect... I don't belong to any Sect..." Tang Rao shook his head.
This Ji Yongye seems like a decent person, chatting with him is good too, just right for recovering so Spiritual Energy spent in the recent fight against five Foundation Establishnt pinnacle Puppets.
No Sect... No Sect...
These four words exploded and rolled around in Ji Yongye's brain, being wildly trampled by a million rabid teddy bears~~~
"Tang Rao, join my Unrivaled Saber Sect, and I'll make you the Sect Leader." Ji Yongye blurted out.
Tang Rao: "..."
"I'll agree to anything you want," Ji Yongye continued, "as long as you agree, I'll imdiately go to the forty-fifth floor and cripple Mi Fukan, then you can go straight up and take the highest floor."
"You're really willing to do such a thing..." Tang Rao rolled his eyes, this Ji Yongye is shaless.
"I'm only doing this for you; for others, I would definitely maintain my dignity," Ji Yongye shrugged and said.
"Actually... you're a pretty decent person," Tang Rao pursed his lips and said.
"Did you agree?" Ji Yongye asked excitedly.
Tang Rao shook his head.
"You know about the Special Ninth Departnt, right? I'm actually with them, so it's not convenient." Tang Rao didn't want to deceive Ji Yongye. Although the Special Ninth Departnt isn't a Sect, it's still a state agency, if I join another Sect, those old guys in Yan Country might not be happy.
Ji Yongye's mouth hung open; of course, he knew about the Special Ninth Departnt.
But, the Special Ninth Departnt of Yan Country... isn't it notoriously useless?
"Sorry, how about... we just have a fight instead…" Tang Rao said to Ji Yongye.
"No fighting..." Ji Yongye outright declined, "Reaching this level already proves your strength, fighting back and forth is pointless. Better to discuss and strive for the greatest benefits."
Tang Rao's face darkened, so this is how you all play the ga.
"Tang Rao, how about this. My Unrivaled Saber Sect forms a partnership with the Special Ninth Departnt, offering comprehensive support; and you, beco an Honorary Elder of my Unrivaled Saber Sect. That way, the Special Ninth Departnt will likely agree too," Ji Yongye nodded as he spoke.
He clearly understood the Special Ninth Departnt's desire to grow quickly, thus by capturing this point and appealing to Tang Rao, the Special Ninth Departnt probably wouldn't object.
Tang Rao narrowed his eyes.
"You're working this angle, but I'm not really benefiting," Tang Rao pouted, actually just give enough benefits, even if the Special Ninth Departnt doesn't agree, I have ways to make them agree.
"For this Heavenly Ladder, all the Blood Spirit Pills I get will be yours. How about one hundred Blood Spirit Pills a month from my Unrivaled Saber Sect in the future?" Ji Yongye asked.
"How many Blood Spirit Pills can you get in this Heavenly Ladder?" Tang Rao couldn't help but ask.
To be honest, although he knew that climbing the Heavenly Ladder would award Blood Spirit Pills, he wasn't clear on the specific numbers.
"My final level should be around the fortieth floor, and I should be able to get about five thousand Blood Spirit Pills."
Tang Rao: "..."
"Why didn't you say so earlier, I agree." Tang Rao imdiately nodded; five thousand Blood Spirit Pills, what's there to negotiate about when it can be so simple? Why make it so complicated.
"Magnificent!" Ji Yongye was instantly excited, dancing with joy.
"Alright, I'll head to the 45th floor right now. Mi Fukan might be a nice guy, but for you, I'm willing to fight him!" Ji Yongye said as he was about to run to the 45th floor.
Tang Rao thought that Ji Yongye was truly a straightforward person.
"No need, no need, I can go by myself. I'm quite righteous, and performing such despicable acts always make feel uneasy." Tang Rao imdiately held Ji Yongye back and said.
Ji Yongye's eyes lit up even brighter.
"Tang Rao, I didn't expect that not only are you strong, but your character is also amazing." Ji Yongye gave Tang Rao a thumbs up.
Tang Rao chuckled hehehe, confusing Ji Yongye a bit, leaving him feeling inexplicably uneasy.
"Well... I'll go to the 43rd floor first, right, the 45th floor is where Mi Fukan from Luo Sheng Hall, the Evil King, is. This guy is very strong, be careful. Of course, he is actually very compassionate at heart, so you don't need to worry about being in danger." After explaining, Ji Yongye directly left the 44th floor area and moved down to the 43rd floor.
As Ji Yongye moved to the 43rd floor, Tang Rao took over the 44th floor, and the area outside the Heavenly Ladder imdiately went silent.
In an instant, it was as if everyone had forgotten how to speak, turning into mute.
Defeating Ji Yongye was unimaginable.
Everyone was aware of Ji Yongye's strength; the Sect Leader of the Unrivaled Saber Sect, formidable with dual sabers.
Even compared to Ba Wang, he was not to be underestimated.
Terrifying! How frightening!
This Tang Rao, he's defying the heavens!
anwhile, at the position closest to the Heavenly Ladder, Zhao Tianquan eyed the three from the Bai Family, his eyebrows deeply furrowed.
He had taken Bai Jinseng, Bai Ge, and Bai Lengqing under his wing, to increase the likelihood of the Sword Sect roping in Tang Rao, but... Tang Rao was too fierce.
Could such a formidable powerhouse truly be won over by the Sword Sect?
"How is your relationship with Tang Rao?" Zhao Tianquan looked at the three of Bai Jinseng.
"Replying to Sword Demon, Honorary Elder, I am Tang Rao's uncle. I've watched him grow up from a young age, and he and my son Bai Ge have grown up together," Bai Jinseng said with a smile.
"Yeah, yeah, I am quite close to Tang Rao," Bai Ge said too.
Bai Lengqing didn't say anything, just bit her lip.
The Bai father and son duo were shaless, claiming to be close to Tang Rao was nonsense.
"And you?" Zhao Tianquan turned to Bai Lengqing.
"Average." Bai Lengqing replied tersely, as her interactions with Tang Rao were not many; they had mostly interacted during the previous family youth exchange competition, the relationship was neither good nor bad.
Zhao Tianquan nodded, if Bai Jinseng was Tang Rao's uncle, perhaps there was still a chance.
...
On the 45th floor, Tang Rao spent three hours just fighting puppets.
He failed twice and succeeded once.
So twisted—six Foundation Establishnt peak puppets, and they could even cooperate with each other.
Those things were definitely made by humans; although the Despair Nightmare was powerful, it ultimately ca from external Heavenly Demons. External Heavenly Demons wouldn't know such things, they only worshiped killing.
"I wonder if there will be Enlightening Phase puppets later on..." Tang Rao muttered.
It is said that the Enlightening Phase cannot enter here, only Foundation Establishnt can co in. The 45th floor is this fierce, can the upper floors really be handled by Foundation Establishnt?
"Ding ding ding, my na is Tang Rao, would you like to invite to be an Honorary Elder or sothing? Just one word, pay and I'll accept." Arriving on the 45th floor, Tang Rao shouted directly.
In the center of the 45th floor, Mi Fukan looked at Tang Rao, his face full of astonishnt.
