Who Cares About Childhood Sweethearts When They Can Become Immortals?

Chapter 168 Confession

Previously, when Xiao Qionggui burst out the spiritual pressure of the Foundation Building Third Layer, Xu Ji could faintly sense a sense of disobedience from his body through the high spiritual energy affinity. It seemed that Xiao Qionggui had already burst out the spiritual pressure with all his strength. , but Xu Ji could vaguely sense that the spiritual energy in his body was somewhat restrained.

Moreover, Xu Ji's method of suppressing spiritual energy on Xiao Qionggui also felt vaguely familiar. It happened to be exactly the same as the secret art of mortal transformation that he had recently practiced to Basic Accomplishment. Therefore, it was not difficult to guess that Xiao Qionggui also practiced the secret art of mortal transformation. He is also hiding his own strength.

After realizing this, Xu Ji was keenly aware that the two brothers Xiao Qiongfeng and Xiao Qionggui might not be as close as the rumors said, and Xiao Qionggui might not be so willing to become Xiao Qiongfeng like the rumors. The right-hand man who took over as the head of the Xiao family.

Although Xiao Qionggui's face was ashen, he still did not choose to reveal his hidden strength when he was defeated, so the angry look on his face now may not be his disguise in front of Xiao Qiongfeng. After all, there are always people who have no intention of being overjoyed. It makes people more relaxed.

Xu Ji smiled faintly. If Xiao Qionggui really planned to become Xiao Qiongfeng's enemy, then he might not be able to join forces with him. Even if he defeated Xiao Qionggui in front of everyone and embarrassed him, so what, as long as he If the interests are sufficient, even life-and-death enemies may not be unable to join forces.

If Xiao Qionggui really wanted to seek the head of the Xiao family, I am afraid there is no need to contact Xu Ji. Xiao Qionggui himself would find an opportunity to contact Xu Ji to find an ally for himself.

"It's just that... I can realize that Xiao Qionggui is hiding his strength through his high spiritual energy affinity and the practice of the secret art of mortal transformation. Then, is there anyone with high spiritual energy affinity in this Immortal Spirit Dao Temple who also realizes that he is also there? Hidden strength? It seems that the Basic Accomplishment-level secret technique of mortal transformation is still a bit unreliable. After returning home, cultivating it to the extreme level may have better concealment performance."

Xu Ji thought in his mind that although his high spiritual energy affinity was a talent he acquired after practicing Myriad Dao Art to the extreme, no one should be able to practice Myriad Dao Art to the extreme except himself who has the proficiency panel. environment to obtain this talent of high spiritual energy affinity.

However, if someone is born with a higher affinity for spiritual energy than ordinary people, and this person happens to have practiced the secret art of mortal transformation and notices something strange about himself, then wouldn't his previous forgery be completely in vain? In this way, the Basic Accomplishment-level secret technique of mortal transformation is naturally no longer sufficient.

"Junior Xu Ji, since the ordinary Foundation Building Third Layer can no longer bring too much pressure to you, how about letting the seniors give you some guidance? After all, if you can't encounter pressure, you won't be able to gain much from the competition." Look. Looking at Xu Ji who was still in the ring, Xiao Qionggui said with a smile, as if he was not the one who had the conflict with Xu Ji just now, but he was just a close senior who was thinking about his juniors.

Xu Ji smiled faintly and was about to speak when she heard a familiar rough voice from outside the venue.

"Xiao Qiongfeng, if you want to compete, how about competing with me? How about letting me give you some advice?"

Everyone couldn't help but look back after hearing the words, and found that the person who spoke was none other than Hong Heavenly Origin, the president of the Zhudao organization, and standing next to Hong Heavenly Origin, who came to the Lunfa Hall with him, was the deputy director of the Zhudao organization. President, An Ke.

“Hong Heavenly Origin…”

Looking at Hong Heavenly Origin who came to the Lunfa Hall to stand up for Xu Ji, Xiao Qiongfeng couldn't help but have a flash of solemnity on his face. Even if he had already crossed the ninth bridge of the Foundation Building, even if he could fight on the battlefield outside the territory with a single The enemy killed three Nine-Star Mystic Masters who were comparable to the Foundation Building Ninth Layer monks three times in a row, but Xiao Qiongfeng still knew that if he faced Hong Heavenly Origin, he would be defeated miserably.

Although Hong Heavenly Origin is only Foundation Building Ninth Layer, which is higher than First Layer compared to Xiao Qiongfeng, Hong Heavenly Origin is ranked sixth among the 72 Foundation Building Ninth Layer monks of Immortal Spirit Dao Temple, and his strength is Immortal Spirit Dao Temple Sixth, there are only five people who can beat him. His strength is considered to be the top Foundation Building monk in the entire Immortal Alliance.

If he were also at the Foundation Building Ninth Layer, Xiao Qiongfeng would be confident that he could compete with Hong Heavenly Origin. But now that he is only at the Foundation Building Eighth Layer, if he wants to leapfrog the competition, he might as well just go to sleep. Even if he is a genius, But isn’t Hong Heavenly Origin a genius who can place sixth in the Immortal Spirit Dao Temple?

When talents and talents are similar, realm is the only criterion for measuring combat power. Even if the difference is only a small realm, if you face Hong Heavenly Origin, you will be defeated miserably, and there is no other possibility.

The surrounding onlookers spontaneously made way for Hong Heavenly Origin. They originally came to watch the excitement. Now that the excitement is getting more and more popular, they naturally become happier the more they watch. How can Hong Heavenly Origin be prevented from entering?

"Xiao Qiongfeng, how about I give you some advice?" Hong Heavenly Origin brought An Ke to the ring and stood opposite Xiao Qiongfeng. Hong Heavenly Origin looked at Xiao Qiongfeng with a half-smile but not a smile, with a sharp look in his eyes. The light flashed.

"Hong Heavenly Origin, are you going to stand up for Xu Ji? What's the business of you here?" The smile on Xiao Qiongfeng's face faded, his eyes were slightly narrowed, and there was a little haze in his narrow eyes.

"Xu Ji is the person I organized one by one. He is my brother. If you embarrass my brother, you are embarrassing me. It is natural and reasonable for me to stand up for him." Hong Heavenly Origin said matter-of-factly, "Of course there are people who extend their claws too far. When they grow a little longer, they extend into the Zhudao organization, and as the president of the Zhudao organization, I naturally need to be responsible for cutting off these extended claws."

When Xu Ji heard this, he understood in his heart that Hong Heavenly Origin stood up for him this time, probably because his previous mission in the Zhudao organization was leaked. Xiao Qiongfeng contacted someone within the Zhudao organization and obtained the information. He intercepted his own mission by receiving information about the mission. Although this method did not violate the rules of the Immortal Spirit Dao Temple or the laws of the Immortal Alliance, this method broke the rules of the organization.

The very existence of the organization is to stabilize the network of people within the organization, but now a traitor has appeared in this network, leaking information about people within the organization to outsiders. If this cannot be properly handled, how can everyone in the organization do it? Trust each other, and if you can't even trust each other, how can you maintain the network of connections in the organization?

In this way, Hong Heavenly Origin, as the president of the organization, has no choice but to take action, and must take action. This is an explanation for Xu Ji and the rest of the organization.

Xiao Qiongfeng was slightly silent. Although he knew that his previous actions were a bit taboo, he had never guessed that Hong Heavenly Origin valued Xu Ji so much and was willing to stand up for him and embarrass him. Therefore, his current situation is somewhat of a dilemma. .

"What do you think?" After a long silence, Xiao Qiongfeng spoke. He didn't understand the matter, so he had to take a step back.

"who?"

Hong Heavenly Origin simply uttered one word, but Xiao Qiongfeng understood what Hong Heavenly Origin meant. What Hong Heavenly Origin wanted was to tell him who leaked the information about Xu Ji's mission to him.

But how can Xiao Qiongfeng tell Hong Heavenly Origin who leaked the information about Xu Ji's reception?

"Impossible." Xiao Qiongfeng refused simply. If he really told Hong Heavenly Origin the news, maybe he could easily pass Hong Heavenly Origin, but his reputation would be ruined. How can such a person induce others to serve him?

If I really tell Hong Heavenly Origin this news, I am afraid that I will have more trouble in the future if I want to take over as the head of the Xiao family.

Hong Heavenly Origin chuckled twice when he heard this. He did not look at Xiao Qiongfeng, but turned to Xu Ji and said: "Xu Ji, how about you come down here first and let your brother Hong use it?"

"I'm done. If Brother Hong wants to use it, of course he can." Xu Ji was slightly startled when he heard this, then responded with a grin and walked out of the ring, handing the ring to Hong Heavenly Origin.

After Hong Heavenly Origin patted Xu Ji's shoulder, he stepped into the void. It seemed like he just took a step, but it seemed to distort the space. After one step fell, he appeared on the ring.

When this scene fell in Xu Ji's eyes, Xu Ji's pupils shrank slightly. Generally speaking, only Gold Core Perfected Being Realm monks can achieve short-distance teleportation across space, but Hong Heavenly Origin's move cannot be regarded as teleportation. But this method of moving space so close to the end of the world is probably close to Gold Core Perfected Being.

Xu Ji recalled that when Wan Chaosheng pulled her to join the Zhudao organization, Hong Heavenly Origin was only one step away from condensing the Gold Core and breaking through to Gold Core Perfected Being. She originally thought that this was just Wan Chaosheng's boast, but Now it seems that this statement is not false.

After boarding the ring, Hong Heavenly Origin stood with his hands behind his back, stared at Xiao Qiongfeng indifferently, and said in a cold voice: "Then you can come on stage and have a show with me. The strong man will be able to stand upright and see if he has a show. Who is stronger and who is weaker between you and me? Let’s have a battle to see whether I am upright or you are despicable.”

Xu Ji, who had just stepped off the stage, twitched the corner of his mouth slightly, as if something was wrong, but it didn't seem like there was anything wrong.

Seeing this, Xiao Qiongfeng hesitated slightly, but returned to normal in an instant. He snorted coldly and stepped onto the ring. At this point, unless he was willing to tell Hong the Heavenly Origin of the person who had previously leaked information about Xu Ji's mission, otherwise Hong Heavenly Origin will definitely not give up easily. Since there is no way to retreat, why bother to retreat again?

Xiao Qiongfeng has now reached the limit in the Foundation Building Eighth Layer. He is only limited by the bottleneck and cannot break through to the Foundation Building Ninth Layer. If he wants to work hard to break through the bottleneck, it may take a year and a half, but if he can use it The pressure of playing Hong Heavenly Origin this time may not allow him to break through to the Foundation Building Ninth Layer in one fell swoop.

The spectators outside the arena couldn't help but get even more excited when they saw Xiao Qiongfeng actually step into the ring. They quickly started calling friends to join in the fun. This was different from the small fights in the early days of Foundation Building. Eighth Layer's Xiao Qiongfeng and Foundation Building Ninth Layer's Hong Heavenly Origin, these two can already be regarded as the first-class combat power of the students in the Taoist Academy.

If we can gain even a little bit of insight from the fight between these two people, it would be of great benefit to the monks who are in the early stages of Foundation Building and those who are in the middle stage of Foundation Building.
