"The peak of the Tianyuan realm! I thought that I had a rough idea of his strength, but I didn't expect that I still underestimated this little friend Yang. No! Now, I'm afraid I have to call him Senior Yang."
Chu Xiao looked through the files in front of him, his face full of shock.
On it, there are detailed records of yesterday's competition at the "Asking Immortals Conference".
He originally thought that Yang Mu could perform well in the "Ask the Immortal Conference", but if he wanted to enter the top ten, it would take at least another five years to wait for the next "Ask the Immortal Conference".
Who would have thought that when I opened the first page, I would see the three characters "Yang Mutian" among the top ten names!
After being stunned for a short time, he quickly checked the detailed competition record about Yang Mutian. After reading it, he felt a little lost for a while.
"The disciples of Evil Buddha defeated Qiu Feng, and Yang Mutian defeated the disciples of Evil Buddha! In this way, his strength is one of the best among cultivators at the peak of Tianyuan Realm. In short, his strength...
Far above me?"
When Chu Xiao realized this, he seemed to turn into a stone sculpture, and the room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After a while, he called an old man.
"You go outside to inquire about the news and find out where this Yang Mutian comes from!"
He believed that Yang Mutian's performance at the "Asking Immortals Conference" must have attracted the attention of many forces.
Including the intelligence agency of Biyou Palace, they must be investigating Yang Mutian's origins.
Unless Yang Mutian jumped out of the stone, his background will soon be clearly investigated.
The old man said "yes" and turned to leave.
Half an hour passed, and the old man came back quickly.
"Is there news so soon?"
Chu Xiao smiled, and his thoughts were as expected. Once Mu Xiu appeared in the forest, Yang Mutian's identity and origin would be clearly investigated.
"Report to the elders, now, many forces, including our Biyou Palace, are investigating the origin of Yang Mutian, but so far, no specific information has been found!"
The old man said quickly.
Chu Xiao's expression darkened: "Since we haven't found out through the investigation, why are you running back in such a hurry? Go and continue to inquire!"
The old man said hurriedly: "Young man has just received some sensational news and is anxious to report it to you."
"Sensational?"
When Chu Xiao heard this, he said disdainfully: "Humph! It's a shame that you're still working under me and making a fuss all day long. Tell me what's going on!"
The old man said: "Just a few hours ago, Yang Mutian competed with Zuo Qiuyang in Xuanwu City——"
"Wait! Zuo Qiu Yang? Which Zuo Qiu Yang! It's impossible. Is it the one from Sihai Pavilion?"
Chu Xiao interrupted the old man.
He naturally knew everything about Zuo Qiuyang.
After all, his son had offended Zuo Qiuyang and had to be released.
The old man hurriedly said: "It's Zuo Qiuyang, the young master of Sihai Pavilion!"
"Why would Yang Mutian compete with him? What grudges are there between them? What kind of competition is this? It's just Zuo Qiuyang who is bullying others!" Chu Xiao said angrily.
The old man said: "Zuo Qiuyang was defeated at the hands of Yang Mutian!"
"Nonsense! Yang Mutian will naturally be defeated by Zuo Qiuyang. It's impossible... Uh, wait! Tell me, who will be defeated by whom?"
Chu Xiao's expression was shocked and his eyes were round.
The old man said: "It was Zuo Qiuyang who lost to Yang Mutian! Moreover, it is said that Yang Mutian defeated Zuo Qiuyang with just one move! Now, there are even rumors outside that Yang Mutian is a strong man in the Snake Dragon Realm.
Now everyone is saying that there is no need to continue this session of the Immortal Questioning Conference. Yang Mutian must be the first!"
As if he was worried about being interrupted again, he told all the information he had learned at once.
Seeing Chu Xiao stunned on the spot, the old man stopped talking and secretly thought to himself that he had the same expression just now when he learned the news.
"Is this news...serious?"
Chu Xiao swallowed, his voice hesitant.
"I've already checked it out, it's absolutely true! Now, the news has spread throughout Lingshan Island, no, it should be said, throughout Penglai Island!" The old man looked sure.
Chu Xiao took a deep breath and tried to calm down his overwhelming mood.
"Fortunately, I showed my kindness to him before, and there was no conflict! But, how is it possible that a strong man of this level suddenly appears? Moreover, we still can't find out his origin! Is it possible..."
Chu Xiao thought of something and his eyes lit up, "Is it from the outside world?"
The next second, he shook his head and laughed at himself:
"Impossible! I'm afraid a guy from the outside world can't even defeat the ordinary people on Penglai Island. How is it possible that he can be a cultivator of this level?"
………
Xianzi Tower.
"Sister Qianwu! Open the door! Sister Qianwu, open the door quickly!"
Just as Yu Qianwu was about to blow out the candles and fall asleep, there was a rapid knock on the door.
She suddenly felt a headache, rubbed her temples, and walked over to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, the pretty girl with a round head squeezed in immediately.
"Didn't I tell you that I'm feeling a little uncomfortable today and want to rest early? If you really don't change your noisy temper, you're going to suffer sooner or later in the future!"
Yu Qianwu pinched the fat cheeks of the girl with a round head and pretended to be angry.
"No! I...I heard a very important news and wanted to tell you, sister. I didn't mean to disturb your rest!"
The girl with a round head quickly begged for mercy.
Yu Qianwu said: "What news? Tell me! If it's not important, I will let you, little girl, have a better memory today."
"It's about Zuo Qiuyang! He——"
The ball-headed girl spoke quickly. When Yu Qianwu heard the name "Zuo Qiuyang", she felt a splitting headache and interrupted:
"Don't say it! I don't want to hear any news about him."
"No! It's Zuo Qiuyang—"
"That's enough! You really don't know the rules anymore!"
Yu Qianwu's expression was gloomy and her voice was stern.
To her, Zuoqiu Yang was like a cage that trapped her.
She tried to escape again and again, but failed again and again. Each time, she ended up with a feeling of despair in her heart.
She knew that she would never be able to escape Zuo Qiuyang's control in her entire life.
Let the name Zuo Qiuyang not appear in her ears as much as possible, so that she will not feel so depressed just now.
Although this behavior was like a turtle that only knew how to escape, she really had no other choice.
The ball-headed girl was too frightened to speak, her eye circles were red, and big tears were falling down.
Yu Qianwu smiled bitterly and wiped her tears: "Did Zuo Qiuyang break through to the snake-dragon realm?"
The ball-headed girl hurriedly shook her head: "No. He was competing with others in Xuanwu City, and was defeated by them! The key is, I heard that the opponent only used one move!
I...I thought, sister, you would be happy when you heard the news, so I wanted to tell you..."
"Compete with others? Get defeated?"
Yu Qianwu became interested, "Xuanwu City, that seems to be the place where the 'Asking Immortals Conference' is held, right? Who did he lose to? It should be a certain older snake dragon realm expert?"
"It's Yang Mutian!" the girl with a round head said excitedly.
"Yang Mutian, this name sounds a bit familiar." Yu Qianwu frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
The ball-headed girl quickly said: "That's the guy who sold the pill recipe to you last time, sister! That guy Yang Mutian who said he wanted me to be his maid!"
When she talked about it later, she looked a little shy.
Yu Qianwu's pupils shrank, her face full of disbelief: "Are you not mistaken?"
"Of course I'm not mistaken. The story about Yang Mutian has already spread throughout Penglai Island!"
The girl with a round head was full of excitement and quickly told all the news she heard.
From how Yang Mu shined in the "Ask the Immortal Conference" and entered the top ten, he later faced off against Zuo Qiuyang, and then showed off his power, toying with Zuo Qiuyang to applause, and finally defeated him with one move.
Yu Qianwu listened.
Compared with the facts, the news passed down by word of mouth has obviously been verbally processed in many places and has become much more exaggerated.
But the final result was not different at all!
Yang Mutian entered the top ten of Lingshan Island's "Asking Immortals Conference" and even defeated Zuo Qiuyang with just one move. This is an ironclad fact!
When the ball-headed girl finished speaking, Yu Qianwu's face changed. Soon, she didn't know what she thought of, and her eyes shone like stars.
"I'm going to find him! Let's go find him now. We must find him!"
