Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 249 - 145: This World Is Eager to Hear the Story of Young Heroes
Ultimately, it was stopped.
But the message somehow got out.
The martial arts world of Jianghu erupted in an uproar.
The tyranny of Dragon Gate was laid bare at that moment without question.
July 26th.
Outside Wangdang Mountain, Xu Guang encountered the Fifth-Grade Zhenren Elder of Dragon Gate again.
Fighting one against six.
Slaughtered three who fled, eventually leaving injured.
...
Chuannan Prefecture.
Jiang Bai looked at the letter in his hand, his expression complex, with a hint of unusual flush.
"Impressive, truly impressive!"
Whether Xu Guang was right or wrong, his combat power and talents emerged undeniably in battle after battle!
Having broken through to the Fifth Grade in just two months, he continuously killed experts of the same level.
Some even from outside called him invincible at the Fifth Grade.
The entirety of Zouchuan Dao seemed to be watching this game of pursuit and being pursued.
Even the stingy Yongzhou, Qing Province, and South Wind Dao had people paying attention.
The whole world seemed to be focused on this matter.
This world is already impatient to hear the story of a prodigy.
People always sympathize with the weak and enjoy stories where the weak overcome the strong.
Because such storylines possess enough tension, enough dramatics, and became timeless classics in the mouth of storytellers.
Of course, as the battles increased, people discovered that it was because Xu Guang’s Great Beast also broke through to the Fifth Grade.
His own combat power was not as powerful as the stories depicted.
Jiang Bai calmed the excitement stirred by these achievements and looked into the distance at Jiang Zi Yun.
He handed the letter in his hand to him.
"Rest assured, he should be fine. Didn’t you say that the Great Beast under him is a Fierce Ghosts Killer? When he enters the Ghostly Land, even if a Dragon Gate Fourth-Grade expert steps in, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to find him."
Jiang Zi Yun remained expressionless, merely looking at the content recorded in the letter for a long time, then letting out a long sigh.
"By the way, you and him, to what extent have you developed?"
Jiang Bai asked in a rare gossiping tone.
"I... don’t know." Jiang Zi Yun shook his head.
Jiang Bai didn’t say much else. The feelings of young men and women have never been so easily articulated clearly.
"You need not worry too much, what you should be worrying about now is yourself."
Jiang Zi Yun raised her head in confusion.
"You used your father’s greatest achievement back in the day to ask the Three Ancestors to step in, making Dragon Gate’s experts above the Fourth Grade refrain from pursuing Xu Guang for three months, but what about you?
Your relationship with Xu Guang will soon come under Dragon Gate’s scrutiny, and without the protection of your father’s achievements, if Dragon Gate decided to make an issue of you..."
After a pause, Jiang Bai seemed indignant on Jiang Zi Yun’s behalf, "If you really had something with him, it wouldn’t matter, but seeing how things are, you haven’t even held hands, and paying such a high price, I feel aggrieved for you."
Jiang Zi Yun remained silent.
Jiang Bai understood her character; she didn’t want to discuss this topic further.
He intended to change the topic, yet suddenly realized that the trending topic throughout Zouchuan Dao was Xu Guang, and any topic he could think of seemed related to Xu Guang.
"But there’s one thing I’m a bit curious about. You said Tang Feng from the Dianyin Sect died, why hasn’t there been any news from the Dianyin Sect?"
"I heard from people on Jiufeng Mountain that the Master Zhiyi of the Dianyin Sect seemed to have the intention of personally killing Xu Guang after Tang Feng’s death, but then, for some unknown reason, he just took people back to Kunlun?"
"Could it be that Xu Guang has connections within the Dianyin Sect?"
Jiang Bai speculated after speaking.
Jiang Zi Yun showed a puzzled expression, slightly shaking her head.
"Alright, that lad’s temperament is much like mine. I reckon that, being hunted, he must be holding a grudge, and when he returns, it’s going to be even more lively!"
...
In the Ten Thousand People Pit Ghostly Land.
Xu Guang took a deep breath of the air tinged with a stench, only feeling that the air here was truly liberating.
There was none of the oppressive atmosphere of the outside world.
He even found the bizarre bloodied and withered trees in front of him adorably fascinating.
"Damn it, Li Qian, can’t you give a brother some prep time?"
