"Xia Mang?"
Jian Wushuang couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Ever since he had arrived in Tang of the East, he had heard the name of the eldest son in Xia Family more than once.
The
so-called number one genius in Eternal World, number one in Eternal
Realm, the youngest eternal realm in the history of Eternal World, and
so on…
However, Jian Wushuang had been doubtful of the so-called number one genius, number one in Eternal Realm.
"If we were to fight one-on-one, he would definitely lose!" Jian Wushuang said in a low voice.
"Oh, so confident?" Di Jing looked at Jian Wushuang in surprise.
He
didn't know that Jian Wushuang was said to possess the fighting power
of one in the seventh step of Eternal Realm even before breakthrough.
"Number One in Eternal Realm in Eternal World, he is just a joke in front of me," Jian Wushuang's gaze was cold.
Then,
King of Venomous Worms in his body spoke, "Jian Wushuang, you are an
inverse cultivator. Once you had reached Eternal Realm, it will just be
like a Dao Master of an ordinary cultivator. Plus, you have the
bloodline of Ancient G.o.d. On top of that, you have extraordinary
encounters and many skills. You would be playing the bully if you were
to compare to the so-called number one in Eternal Realm in this world!"
"Bully?" Jian Wushuang chuckled quietly.
"As
you have no problem with betrothal presents and power, it will be much
easier. You only have to surpa.s.s Xia Mang in the son-in-law recruitment
a.s.sembly. All forces and experts will be watching. Although Emperor Leng
is brutal, he shouldn't go against the rules he set," Di Jing smiled.
"Of course, you have to prepare for the best and for the worst."
"If
you were to lose to Xia Mang on the son-in-law recruitment a.s.sembly, or
if Emperor Leng goes against his own rules, we will have to fight
against Emperor Leng and Xia Family head-on," Di Jing's expression
became cold. "Back then, master lost to Emperor Leng and he had no
choice but to leave Tang of the East. However, although master left, he
never gave up. All these years, he has been storing up strength. Until
now, although the acc.u.mulated power wasn't enough to match evenly with
Emperor Leng or Xia Family, he stands a chance to fight a war!"
"Stand
a chance to fight a war?" Xue Lingtian looked shocked and complimented,
"We of Void Temple knew long ago that Emperor Xiao had been
acc.u.mulating power. We never expected that the power that Xiao
acc.u.mulated over such a short period of time has reached such a level.
Tsk tsk. He lives up to his name, Emperor Xiao, the second place among
the four Emperors."
Jian Wushuang was stunned at the comment.
Emperor Xiao was on the second place among the four Emperors?!
"Senior
Di Jing, I never understood. Why would Emperor Xiao and Emperor Leng,
who were a couple, suddenly have a falling out? And, Emperor Xiao is so
powerful, why would he lose at the hands of Emperor Leng back then?"
Jian Wushuang asked.
Among the four Emperors, Emperor Qing was
widely acknowledged as the strongest. Hence, he naturally was in first
place. As for Emperor Xiao, he was in the second place, he was
definitely stronger than Emperor Leng by one notch. Why would he lose?
"I
am not sure why master fell out with Emperor Leng back then. Master
never told me either. As for why master lost, it was because Emperor
Leng had a helping hand. An impressive helping hand," Di Jing said.
"Who?" Jian Wushuang asked.
"National Master" Di Jing said.
Jian Wushuang understood then.
When
he had been in Blood Eagle Guard, he had also heard that there was an
impressive National Master in Tang of the East who had great skills.
Just like the Divine Sea and Blood Eagle Armor, they were both from the hands of the National Master.
"Oh yeah, Jian Wushuang, as you are joining the son-in-law recruitment a.s.sembly, do you have a recommendation?" Di Jing asked.
"Recommendation?" Jian Wushuang was confused.
"Not
everyone can join son-in-law recruitment a.s.semble. You, of course, need
to have a recommendation and the person who gives it to you has to have
enough say to let Tang of the East treat him politely," Di Jing
explained.
Jian Wushaung looked to his senior, Xue Lingtian, subconsciously.
Xue Lingtian, as one of the eighteen masters of Void Temple, held a high position too.
"Don't
look at your senior. His position has power but Void Temple is aloof.
They never get involved in any fight among forces in Eternal World. The
son-in-law recruitment a.s.sembly is possibly the fight between Emperor
Leng and master, so your senior is not in an appropriate position to get
involved," Di Jing said.
Xue Lingtian shrugged helplessly too.
"If you have no recommender, master invited one for you," Di Jing said.
"Who is it?" Jian Wushuang asked.
"Alchemy
Master… Huo Qiong," Di Jing said, "The Alchemy Master is widely
recognized as the number one elixir master in Eternal World. He is in
eminent position in Eternal World. There are many experts who once
looked for him to refine elixirs and owe him a favor. Although he is
alone, as long as he orders, there will be a bunch of Dao Masters
swarming in to work for him. He alone represents a fierce force."
"Besides, this Alchemy Master is the master of your brother here."
"Huh?" Jian Wushuang's eyes shone and he immediately looked at w.a.n.g Yuan.
"Haha,
third brother, don't worry about it. Master replied to me long ago that
he agreed to give you a recommendation. After all, you offered him
quite a number of good things. He was rather delighted," w.a.n.g Yuan
smiled.
"I see. Your Master is the number one elixir master in
Eternal World. No wonder your elixir refining skills could improve so
greatly," Jian Wushuang complemented as he said, "Thank Alchemy Master
on my behalf."
"No problem," w.a.n.g Yuan waved.
"Alright, I
have told you everything I need to. Three years later, the son-in-law
recruitment a.s.sembly will take place. You have three years' time to
prepare. Three years later, don't let master and his eldest daughter
down," Di Jing exhorted.
"Mm," Jian Wushuang nodded solemnly.
Very
soon, Di Jing and Leng Ruxue had left but Xue Lingtian wasn't in a
hurry to leave. He took Jian Wushuang to a secluded void.
"Junior,
the son-in-law recruitment a.s.sembly three years later, I will come
personally. However, due to my position, I can't be your recommendation.
However, if there were to be any accident at the a.s.sembly, I will still
appear as an individual to lend you a helping hand," Xue Lingtian said
in a serious tone.
"Thank you, Senior," Jian Wushuang expressed his grat.i.tude.
"I
came here today to ask about the son-in-law recruitment a.s.sembly, but
there's one more thing," Xue Lingtian waved and took out a scroll
painting that seemed to be turning yellow.
"This is?"
Jian Wushuang looked at the scroll painting in shock.
"I returned to Firmament Territory and I saw the master. This scroll painting... master entrusted me to bring it to you."
Xue
Lingtian said, "Master said that he would give us three treasures that
we could use when we leave Firmament Territory to wander. He gave it to
you. However, he gave you two previously and this is the third one!"
