Chapter 454
The arrival of Xu Lingfeng and Li Yi shocked the sects near Green Cloud Immortal Sect.
Two Nascent Souls could change the situation in some sects.
All the major sects started to take action and investigate the relation between the two Nascent Souls and Green Cloud Immortal Sect. The news that Xu Muan was their son spread, and the major sects paid more attention to Xiao Jinting.
At the Peerless Sect.
Nangong Cheng was shocked by the news.
He sighed. “I didn’t expect Xu Muan to have such powerful parents. Xiao Xiaofan inherits their outstanding aptitude.”
Qiao Xiang was stunned. Xu Muan’s parents were Xiao Xiaodong’s grandparents. Since Chen Xu chose Xiao Xiaodong, Qiao Xiang had been competing secretly with Xiao Xiaodong. He suddenly realized that the harder he worked, the bigger the gap between him and Xiao Xiaodong. He felt tired.
“Ancestor, will Green Cloud Immortal Sect expand with these two helpers?” asked Qiao Xiang.
The territories of Peerless Sect bordered with those of Green Cloud Immortal Sect. There was only Nangong Cheng supported Peerless Sect, while Dongcheng Yang, Xiao Jinting, and Chen Lifeng supported Green Cloud Immortal Sect. Now that they had two more Nascent Souls, Peerless Sect would be defeated if Green Cloud Immortal Sect attacked them.
Quite some Nascent Souls died in Cloud Continent these years, which made Qiao Xiang feel threatened. If Nangong Cheng died, he would be doomed.
Nangong Cheng shook his head and said, “I don’t think so. Dongcheng Yang is in charge of the Green Cloud Immortal Sect. He has recruited Xiao Jinting, and he won’t dare to do that again.”
If Dongcheng Yang recruited more Nascent Souls, he might lose his position as the sect head.
“Those two people are not from the Cloud Continent, so they won’t interfere with affairs of our continent. The Xu and Li families were dignified, and they would not covet Green Cloud Immortal Sect. They come here to visit the family.”
Qiao Xiang said suspiciously, “They come all the way to visit them?”
“The birth of Xu Muan meant the connection between the Xu and Li families. After he disappeared, the rift between the families had been growing. Li Yi almost went mad because of his son and almost broke up with Xu Lingfeng. You can imagine how much Xu Muan means to them.”
“It took them a long time to find Xu Muan, who doesn’t want to stay in the Green Continent, and it’s normal that Li Yi and Xu Lingfeng came to stay with him,” said Nangong Cheng.
Qiao Xiang mumbled, “How could Xu Muan have such an identity? Doesn’t he come from the Barbarian Continent?”
Nangong Cheng said sternly, “Xu Muan used to come from a low family, but things are different now. The Xu family in the Green Continent is powerful. Although they keep a low profile, they have a Deity Transformation in the family. We can’t afford to offend them.”
Qiao Xiang was startled. Only the best sects had Deity Transformation cultivators in the Cloud Continent. It surprised him that there was such a master in the Xu family.
“I wonder how Dongcheng Yang feels now.”
Nangong Cheng was envious that Green Cloud Immortal Sect had powerful helpers, but he pitied Dongcheng Yang, who had too many helpers.
…
At Spiritual Medicine Sect.
Guo Ji frowned at the information.
“Mu Yun, you are Xiao Jinting’s friend. Do you think the arrival of Xu Lingfeng and Li Yi will change the situation in the Cloud Continent?” asked Guo Yi worriedly.
Mu Yun glanced at him and said indifferently, “Don’t worry. Xiao Jinting is not interested in expanding his sect. Dongcheng Yang might be interested, but he can’t order those people.”
“I heard that Xu Muan is the son of Xu Lingfeng and Li Yi. Is it true? Xu Lingfeng and Li Yi come from the Green Continent, while Xu Muan comes from the Barbarian Continent. It looks far-fetching,” said Guo Yi, shaking his head.
“Xu Muan should be their son. Otherwise, they would have come a long way here,” said Mu Yun.
“You have a sharp eye,” said Guo Yi admiringly.
Xiao Jinting used to be obscure. When Chen Xu chose Xiao Xiaodong, Guo Yi thought he was impulsive. When Mu Yun grew closer to the Xiao family, Guo Yi thought it was weird of him to care for them.
Mu Yun said, “Nangong Cheng must be having a hard time.”
Guo Yi nodded and said, “Yeah.”
Some of Spiritual Medicine Sect’s territories bordered with Green Cloud Immortal Sect, but Peerless Sect was different, having most of its territories bordering with Green Cloud Immortal Sect. There was only one Nascent Soul in Peerless Sect, and that was Nangong Cheng. If he died, Peerless Sect would have no leader and collapse.
Nangong Cheng held a high expectation for Qiao Xiang, but it would take the latter decades to advance to Nascent Soul.
