Chapter 730 - 645: Genius Girl
Su Jiangjing and Zhang Zeyun nodded repeatedly in agreement.
"Then, boss, should we just give up on the matter of Flame Island?"
Su Jiangjing’s eyes flickered, and he asked in a whisper.
"No!"
Situ Chong said in a deep voice, "What we aim for is not just this secret bid, but the entire Fire Cloud Sect and Flame Island."
Ten years ago, they proposed multiple times to Yueyun Sect to purchase Flame Island.
Yueyun Sect always politely refused.
Their Fierce Tiger Island is also a subordinate power of Yueyun Sect.
The three island masters, all of whom are from a background as loose cultivators, are more ruthless than the other.
They struggled through numerous hardships and dangers to finally condense their True Pills.
After they pledged allegiance to Yueyun Sect,
on the surface, they appeared to be righteous cultivators.
On Fierce Tiger Island, there are industries like spirit fields and spiritual ore, and trade circulation with the mainland.
In reality, they have always been the fence for nearby pirate cultivators.
Occasionally, they collaborate with pirate cultivators to rob merchant ships.
As the black gloves of Yueyun Sect, the three from Fierce Tiger Island have also done quite a few dirty deeds.
All three have family members.
They originally wanted to relocate some of their people and leave Fierce Tiger Island, to wash their identities clean.
Originally, they saw Flame Island as their springboard and transit point.
In their plan, they would gradually move some of their family to Yueyun Immortal City.
After all, no one wanted their descendants to always be pirate cultivators.
"But, since this Intelligence Jade Scroll was sent, the message on it..."
Su Jiangjing asked.
"We are not the only ones who received this Intelligence Jade Scroll!"
Situ Chong snorted coldly, a fierce light in his eyes.
"When the opportunity comes, we will naturally take action!"
"A mere secret bid of a hundred thousand Spirit Stones, I don’t even care for it!"
"In a few days, I will break through. Once I reach the late stage of the True Pill, that old Ming Shen will be no threat!"
Upon hearing this, Su Jiangjing and Zhang Zeyun both stood up to bow and congratulate.
"Congratulations, big brother, may your path be bright. We wish you success soon!"
Situ Chong walked out of the hall of gathering.
The two brothers followed closely behind.
The three simultaneously looked in the direction of Flame Island.
...
Two months later.
The issue of Yang Huofeng’s Foundation Establishment on Flame Island spread everywhere.
There are no walls in the world that the wind can’t pass through.
Moreover, the Fire Cloud Sect had long been infiltrated to the point of resembling a sieve.
Eventually, even the edict of Ming Shen True Master was useless.
In every nook and cranny of Yueyun Immortal City, stories of Yang Huofeng were circulating.
This also gradually raised the reputation of the Fire Cloud Sect.
The morale of the disciples of the Fire Cloud Sect finally showed some improvement.
After all, being able to discover a genius girl is a testament to prowess itself.
Moreover, if Yang Huofeng can grow strong and achieve Core Formation,
the entire Fire Cloud Sect will surely rise in fame and have a resurgence.
As for Shen Haoming, as Yang Huofeng’s senior brother and a Perfected Golden Core disciple, his name also gradually became well-known.
Shen Xuan remained oblivious to all this.
He was always cultivating quietly.
In the inner layer of the cave mansion, a large Spirit Locking Array was set up.
As the Spirit Vein was not up to standard, he consumed upper-grade water Spirit Stones to compensate.
For daily cultivation alone, tens of thousands of Spirit Stones were consumed each month.
Shen Xuan had the means for this.
As for the Fire Technique, it was much simpler.
He just had to proceed step by step and refine the True Master Primordial Fire’s Golden Core.
Soon, more and more cultivation influences came to Flame Island to pay their respects.
Ming Shen True Master was terribly busy.
Some people, openly and in secret, tested Ming Shen True Master, wishing to meet Yang Huofeng.
All were tactfully refused by Ming Shen True Master for various reasons.
Yang Huofeng achieving Foundation Establishment at sixteen was simply too incredible.
The younger the age, the greater the potential, and the higher the future chance of forming a Core.
The story became more and more mythical as it spread.
The Fire Cloud Sect did not come out to refute the rumors.
This solidified the matter of Yang Huofeng achieving Foundation Establishment at sixteen.
Some sect families even proposed marriage alliances.
This left Ming Shen True Master in a mix of emotions.
Several days later.
With Shen Xuan’s permission, Yang Huofeng was allowed to leave the cave mansion.
Her activity was restricted to within Scarlet Dawn Peak.
Still, she was not permitted to leave the peak, much less the island.
Shen Xuan taught her techniques to conceal aura, such as [Concealing Breath], [Invisibility], [Thousand Transformations].
After joining the sect, Yang Huofeng disguised herself as a middle stage Qi Cultivation girl.
Shen Xuan observed.
Maintaining a distance of three meters, she could deceive Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators.
If she wanted to be as capable as him, she would have to work hard.
During this time, Yang Huofeng tested the power of her Scarlet Cloud Primordial Fire.
Having just reached Foundation Establishment, her Scarlet Cloud Primordial Fire had already fused into her spiritual power.
When unleashed, it was enough to burn and wound middle stage Foundation Establishment cultivators.
This meant that Yang Huofeng’s combat strength could already surpass a minor realm.
Shen Xuan felt a storm brewing in his heart.
This genius girl was simply too strong!
