Gu Nan watched the Demon Lords figure gradually disappear, but he didnt give chase.

The Demon Lord actually had a higher cultivation, but he lost because Gu Nan could see through all his attacks. Still, it would still be pretty difficult for Gu Nan to truly kill him.

In any case, Radiant Tower would be acting as the vanguard in the future. Why would he need to fight the Demon Lord to the death right now?

The most efficient method is to wait and collect the heads of demonic path experts in the future war.

As soon as the Demon Lord retreated, the remaining demonic path small fries could no longer stir up any waves. In a moment, Gu Nan had slaughtered them all.

Yan Xiaoxiao began to instruct people to clean up the manor and repair the destroyed structures.

Teacher, was that the Demon Lord just now? Yan Xiaoxiao came to Gu Nans side and asked with some difficulty.

Gu Nans fight with the Demon Lord wasnt hidden from prying eyes. In addition, the Demon Lords conspicuous appearance made it easy for people to recognize him.

Thats right.

Yan Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and cupped her hands. Congratulations to Teacher for stepping into the Infinitesimal Stage as soon as he entered Prodigious Realm!

The so-called Infinitesimal Stage referred to one of the smaller stages within Prodigious Realm.

There were three stages in between the Prodigious Realm and Void Cutter Realm: Origin, Infinitesimal, and Domain. Based on Gu Nans understanding, these stages actually correspond with the first three levels of ones core skill.

With the Shadow Earring, his core skill was already Level 2, so he didnt fall into a disadvantage even when he fought the Demon Lordsomeone publicly known to be at the Infinitesimal Stage. Thus, Yan Xiaoxiao believed that Gu Nans cultivation was also at that stage.

Not really. Gu Nan shook his head. Only my understanding of my innate ability reached Infinitesimal Stage; my actual cultivation hasnt caught up yet.

Yan Xiaoxiao almost couldnt help rolling her eyes. Its way more terrifying that your comprehension of innate ability exceeds your actual cultivation, okay!?

But she suddenly fell silent just then.

Gu Nan looked at her and asked with a slight smile, What? Do you believe theres hope for your revenge now?

Yan Xiaoxiao still didnt speak. Her usual smile gradually disappeared, replaced by the expression of the Polis Witch who had taken countless lives when she first appeared.

Gu Nan understood Yan Xiaoxiao very well.

This girl was a natural-born killer. The hatred of seeing her entire family slaughtered made her mature quickly, but it also made her walk down an extreme and obstinate path.

Although shed put down her hatred for the time being per his persuasion, it didnt mean that she ever forgot her hatred.

She put away the sword she used in the beginning and never unsheathed it again, not even when she was in a life and death situation just now. This meant that she was still trying her best to restrain herself.

She wanted to use her deep-seated hatred to nurse the vengeful sword in her heart. The day the longsword is unsheathed once more will be the day she achieves her Dao.

Go get revenge, Gu Nan said lightly.

Yan Xiaoxiao looked at him in a daze. I thought Teacher would persuade me to be patient and wait until the sword in my heart has formed completely. I didnt expect

If you cant even take revenge to your hearts content, then whats the point of practicing martial arts? Gu Nan patted her head and smiled. Never forget what made you first walk down this path.

With Gu Nans voice, Yan Xiaoxiao seemed to return to that mansion a long time ago. She recalled the scene of blood splashing everywhere and the trembling from the depths of her soul.

Many bystanders were observing the battle at Azure Dragon Halls headquarters, so it was impossible to hide the outcome.

The Demon Lord privately went to the South Central Region and tried to capture the emerging force Azure Dragon Hall in one go, but in the end, he retreated after suffering injuriessuch news began to spread all over the world.

With the rumors growing more and more exaggerated, some places even claimed that the Demon Lord had suffered fatal injuries and was on the verge of death, and the downfall of the demonic path was just around the corner.

A meeting was taking place in the middle of the continent, inside Radiant Towers main headquarters in this world.

Its simply absurd! That Demon Lord is already an expert in the Infinitesimal Stage. Hes one of the strongest people among the natives. How can anyone injure him so easily?

An old man whose face was full of wrinkles slammed his hand down on the table. He didnt believe the rumors at all.

Together with him, a total of eleven people were sitting around a huge round table, discussing the incident. They all had different expressions.

But this matter really is truethe Demon Lord retreated. A woman in blue sitting across from the old man said leisurely, According to our information, the person who fought the Demon Lord is at least at the Infinitesimal Stage.

The old man looked gloomy. He knew he couldnt refute the hard evidence right in front of him, so he asked instead, Then you guys tell me: just where did such an expert pop out from? Dont tell me that this world still contains a secret that we at Radiant Tower havent discovered yet?

The elderly mans last sentence made everyones expressions sink.

The reason Radiant Tower put so much effort and time into their preparations for this world wasnt simply just to complete the mission.

After they dealt with the hostile reincarnators, this place would become a plane that would provide Radiant Tower with resources, allowing for a stable supply of various materials and human resources.

If this world still had undiscovered secrets and even hidden forces, then this matter really would require great attention.

Everyone, one of the women spoke up while everyone was still deep in thought, I think I might know that persons identity.

What?!

Is that true?

Tang Xuan, have you received information from other channels? Is it reliable?

A series of questions rang out, and Tang Xuan smiled wryly. She gently pushed forward the documents in her hands. I dont know if you remember that a genius once appeared in our branch office

As she spoke, the documents were distributed to everyone.

After reading Tang Xuans information, all the Prodigious Realm cultivators frowned.

What Tang Xuan showed them was Gu Nans past involvement with Yan Xiaoxiao.

Radiant Towers high-ranking members all knew that Gu Nan taught Yan Xiaoxiao in the past. Even the Demon Lord could find this information, let alone Radiant Tower.

It was also well-known that Yan Xiaoxiao was the Polis Witch and the Hall Master of Azure Dragon Hall.

So the mysterious person is Gu Nan, who has recently advanced to Prodigious Realm. A young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes shook his head with a bitter smile. I did believe that he could advance to the next realm, but I didnt expect him to be so fast.

This young man, Yue Chenxing, once oversaw Radiant Towers operations in the southern region. He saw Gu Nans amazing accomplishments back then and greatly admired his talent.

Its a pity that hes no longer one of us. Another person nearby sighed softly. Otherwise our mission will be much easier.

The crowd also sighed helplessly.

Even among the people present, over half were still in Prodigious Realms first stageOrigin Stage. If an Infinitesimal Stage expert suddenly appeared, then the combat power on their side would rise exponentially.

Radiant Tower didnt forbid members from leaving, so no one could say anything about Gu Nans departure. They could only lament that he left at a bad time.

Just when the meeting room became quiet, a middle-aged man with an elegant temperament knocked on the table and opened his mouth.

Even if Gu Nan is no longer one of ours, that doesnt mean we cant bring him to our side. The middle-aged man looked calm and collected, as if nothing could move him. The fact that he fought the Demon Lord already revealed many things, including his allegiance.

Everyones eyes suddenly brightened. They merely felt regret at letting a good talent go but failed to think of this.

Even if he was no longer in Radiant Tower, he could still be a comrade-in-arms!

That middle-aged man stood up slowly. Everyone, the final decisive battle has come. Its time to start the war between Prodigious Realm cultivators.
