Chapter 4629
4629 Xue Qing Zhu
‘Congratulations to Xue Qing Zhu, a level-six supreme powerhouse from the Outer Boundary. Now that she has overcome the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation, she’s poised to become the sixth level-seven supreme powerhouse after the historical gap, surpassing Saints and World supreme powerhouses!’
‘Congratulations to Xue Qing Zhu from the Outer Boundary. After overcoming the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation, she has broken through and become the sixth level-seven supreme powerhouse after the historical gap, surpassing Saints and World supreme powerhouses!’
100 years after the Primordial World’s Agu Li overcame the Fatal Heavenly Tribulation and became a level-seven supreme powerhouse, another person finally managed to break through and entered the realm of level-seven supreme powerhouses. This person was from the Outer Boundary, and the second person from the Outer Boundary to become a level-seven supreme powerhouse.
...Needless to say, there was a huge uproar in the Outer Boundary.
“Hahaha! There’s finally another level-seven supreme powerhouse in the Outer Boundary!”
“That’s right! Previously, four out of five level-seven supreme powerhouses were from the Myriad Worlds. Only one was from the Outer Boundary. For this reason, cultivators from the Myriad Worlds have been acting very arrogantly toward us in recent years! Based on the way they spoke, you’d think that they themselves were level-seven supreme powerhouses!”
“Ha! Our Outer Boundary had a deep foundation. Sooner or later, we’ll catch up to and surpass the Myriad Worlds.”
“Xue Qing Zhu? The Seventh City Governor of Jin Dynasty’s Thirteen Cities in the Sacred Wind Realm?”
“That’s her. She went missing in recent years, and I almost forgot about her. She’s truly a monstrous genius…”
“Indeed. In the past, she was once known as the youngest Saint in the Outer Boundary.”
The 13 Cities of the Jin Dynasty was a saint-rank force. As its name suggested, the force was a combination of 13 cities. The 13 cities were spread far and wide, and each city was governed by a powerful City Governor. Initially, the cities were all allies. Later on, under the initiative of a few City Governors, all of them became sworn brothers and sisters and officially combined the cities into one force.
Previously, in the 13 Cities of the Jin Dynasty, the Grand City Governor, the Second City Governor, and the Seventh City Governor were Saints. Among the three, the Seventh City Governor was the youngest, and she inherited the position from her predecessor.
Before inheriting the position, she had to address the other City Governors respectfully. However, after inheriting her position, she addressed them as ‘brother’ or ‘sister’. This had long been decided when the original City Governors became sworn brothers and sisters. Their rankings were decided based on the order they became sworn siblings.
…
In Jade Bamboo City.
A burst of hearty laughter rang from outside the city before a booming voice said, “Congratulations, Seventh Sister!”
Following that, a tall and burly figure appeared in the sky above the City Governor’s Mansion in the east of the city. It belonged to a bearded middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.
Several figures flew up into the sky one after another and greeted the newcomer respectfully.
“Greetings, Grand City Governor!”
“Why are you here? Where’s your City Governor??” the bearded middle-aged man asked, puzzled.
‘Is Seventh Sister not back yet? That must be it. Otherwise, she would have come out and greeted me. Does this mean she’s injured?’
A hint of worry flashed in the bearded middle-aged man’s eyes when he thought about this.
Among the group of people, an old woman stepped forward and replied, “Grand City Governor, our City Governor just sent a message saying she has something to do in the Myriad Worlds and that she’ll be back later.”
The group of people was demi Saints of Jade Bamboo City, and they were only second to Xue Qing Zhu in the city. They would usually help her handle all affairs of the city when she was in closed-door cultivation.
“She went to the Myriad Worlds?”
The bearded middle-aged man frowned. He could not figure out why Xue Qing Zhu went to the Myriad Worlds. He wondered if she went there to find someone to spar with after her breakthrough. After all, the two sword cultivators who broke through first and became level-seven supreme powerhouses were in the God Defying World.
Xue Qing Zhu was also a sword cultivator and was acknowledged as the strongest sword cultivator in the 13 Cities of the Jin Dynasty. She naturally cultivated the Sword Dao.
At this moment, another burst of laughter rang in the air.
“Seventh Sister, congratulations! I didn’t expect you to break through ahead of me and Big Brother! Even if Big Brother and I join forces now, we won’t be able to defeat you!”
The laughter sounded like it belonged to a child. However, the figure that appeared in the sky above the City Governor’s Mansion in Jade Bamboo City belonged to a girl who looked about 13 or fourteen years old. Her hair was braided into two pigtails. Her features were delicate.
When the girl flew over, she saw the bearded middle-aged man, and a smile appeared on her face immediately.
“Big Brother, you came earlier than I did!”
Meanwhile, when the group of demi Saints saw the girl, a hint of fear could be seen in their eyes when they greeted her. It was as though they were more afraid of her than the bearded middle-aged man.
“Greetings, Second City Governor!”
“Second Sister,” the bearded middle-aged man nodded and said, “We came here in vain. Seventh Sister has gone to the Myriad Worlds.”
“She went to the Myriad Worlds?” the girl asked, puzzled, “Why did Seventh Sister go to the Myriad Worlds?”
After listening to the bearded middle-aged man’s speculation, the girl’s eyes lit up.
“Second Sister went to the God Defying World? That’s the World with two level-seven supreme powerhouses, right?”
“Second Sister, don’t tell you want to go there as well?”
The bearded middle-aged man knew the girl very well, after all. It was not difficult for him to guess her thoughts.
Needless to say, despite her appearance, the girl was not young. She was at least old enough to be Xue Qing Zhu’s ancestor. However, she was young at heart, and she took on the appearance of a young girl.
The bearded middle-aged man knew better than to talk about age in front of the girl. He knew that she disliked being told that she was old. In heart, she was forever a young girl!
…
In the God Defying World.
Duan Ling Tian was stunned when he received the message from Xiao Mu Bai.
“Xue Qing Zhu from the Outer Boundary, who just became a level-seven supreme powerhouse, wants to spar with me and master and compare our Sword Dao?”
Duan Ling Tian did not expect the other party to come so soon after her breakthrough. Moreover, he also just found out that she was a sword cultivator.
After a while, Duan Ling Tian said to Xiao Mu Bai, “Lord Xiao, I have no interest in sparring with her. Perhaps you can speak to my master.”
If Duan Ling Tian was just an ordinary level-seven supreme powerhouse, he would be glad to spar with someone in the same cultivation realm as him. After all, it was an opportunity for him to learn and improve. However, if he sparred with Xue Qing Zhu now, it would be akin to bullying her. After all, his Sword Dao had risen to the eighth stage after he studied the memories of the Void Elder.
