Chapter 310: Upgrade
He immediately said subconsciously: “There’s no way he can win.”
Su Jingzhen’s words were quite calm, as if he was stating a fact.
As he spoke, his gaze was fixed on Luo Yuebai, as if he was making a promise to her.
[Emotional Connection +6]
[Remaining usable points: 137]
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Yuebai’s eyes finally showed a hint of emotional change.
At the same time, a line of golden text appeared in front of Su Jingzhen.
Seeing the emotional connection points arrive, Su Jingzhen’s heart suddenly relaxed.He knew that Luo Yuebai was not too angry with him.
In other words, Luo Yuebai might have already put last night’s incident behind her.
Su Jingzhen immediately said, “In a year, our Linjiang City Evil Moon Sect will definitely make Qingzhou’s territory tremble. I guarantee that the next sect leader position will definitely belong to Yuebai.”
As he spoke, Su Jingzhen’s tone was still extremely serious.
This sentence was his promise to Luo Yuebai and Shen Yifeng.
In his opinion, with his golden finger, he had already reached the fourth layer of Flesh Body Golden Embryo.
In a year, it shouldn’t be difficult to take down Zou Zeyu.
[Emotional Connection with Luo Yuebai reached: Mutual Appreciation!
Reward points: 50
Level bonus: 3 times
Cultivation bonus: 3 times]
[Remaining usable points: 187]
At this time, another line of golden text appeared in front of Su Jingzhen.
Su Jingzhen’s heart suddenly became excited.
His emotional connection with Luo Yuebai had finally reached the third level.
He had guessed that this would happen when he returned to Clear Wind Mountain.
At this time, he unexpectedly learned about the Evil Moon Sect’s Holy Saint, and even if it wasn’t for the emotional connection points, he wouldn’t let Luo Yuebai lose.
However, even though his emotional connection with Luo Yuebai had increased, Luo Yuebai still didn’t pay attention to him.
Although his heart was slightly moved, his face remained expressionless.
Shen Yifeng, who was standing beside them, became even more certain that the relationship between the two had already surpassed his understanding.
He didn’t point it out, but his gaze towards Su Jingzhen was filled with a sense of comfort.
Both Luo Yuebai and Shen Yifeng were influential figures in the Evil Moon Sect and even in the entire Qingzhou territory.
So, if someone else were to say such big words in front of them, they would probably both sneer at them.
But at this time, whether it was Luo Yuebai or Shen Yifeng, they would both subconsciously value Su Jingzhen’s words.
After all, from the day the Huayang branch sect fell, they had witnessed Su Jingzhen’s miraculous rise step by step.
Shen Yifeng then said, “Now, Zou Zeyu hasn’t even started to act yet.
And our Linjiang branch sect has just begun to take off, so it’s still too early to talk about victory or defeat.
However, I have great confidence in you two.
What we need to do now is to continue to investigate which city he has chosen as his base.
Our Linjiang City is absorbing resources from the Yunmeng City territory, but if he really sets up his base in a small city near Holy City, they will be absorbing resources from Holy City.
Although both are super-large cities, Qingzhou’s Holy City is still stronger than Yunmeng City and other super-large cities.
This is an undisputed fact.
So, you two need to work hard for the next year.
Now that we have a connection with the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, we need to grasp this resource.
The Treasure Gathering Pavilion may be able to provide great assistance to you, Yuebai.”
“Hmph!”
However, when Shen Yifeng mentioned the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, Luo Yuebai couldn’t help but snort in disdain.
She suddenly remembered the treatment she received at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
“I understand.
I have some things to take care of, so I won’t bother you, Third Grandfather.”
Luo Yuebai said this in a cold tone, and then ignored Shen Yifeng and Su Jingzhen.
She had come to inform Shen Yifeng of this matter, and now that her goal was achieved, she didn’t need to stay any longer.
Of course, in her heart, she just didn’t want to, or rather, couldn’t face Su Jingzhen directly.
The pavilion was left with only Shen Yifeng and Su Jingzhen.
“Is there something you’re not telling me, Su Jingzhen? You and Yuebai have been acting strange these past two days.
I feel like you two are hiding something from this old man?”
Shen Yifeng asked, his eyes narrowing slightly.
As Shen Yifeng spoke, a hint of curiosity appeared in his eyes.
No matter what level of cultivator, everyone has a curious heart.
Shen Yifeng was no exception.
Su Jingzhen, of course, knew that Shen Yifeng, as a cunning old man, had already guessed some things.
But he didn’t say anything explicitly.
Instead, he said, “Whatever you imagine, that’s what it is.
Now, Master, please tell me more about Zou Zeyu.”
As soon as he heard the name, Su Jingzhen had already considered Zou Zeyu as his competitor.
Or rather, his short-term competitor.
As the saying goes, “Know yourself, know your enemy, and you will win every battle.” For someone who would eventually face him, Su Jingzhen naturally wanted to understand him better.
Shen Yifeng, of course, wouldn’t refuse this request.
As if recalling the past, he said, “Zou Zeyu successfully awakened his spiritual roots at the age of 12, with a single attribute of earth gold spiritual roots.
His attacking power was extremely strong, and after cultivating for a year, he reached the 9th layer of the Qi-refining Stage at the age of 13.
At 14, he entered the Foundation Establishment stage and was designated as the Chief Holy Son!
After Foundation Establishment, his cultivation speed slowed down, but that was probably just him being cautious.
His goal was to thoroughly solidify his foundation.
However, at the age of 18, with his Foundation Establishment cultivation, he was able to fight against Early Golden Core cultivators without losing.”
As Shen Yifeng spoke about this Holy Son, he was filled with admiration.
Even though he, Shen Yifeng, was currently at the mid-Nascent Soul stage and might soon break through to the late Nascent Soul stage, he knew that he was nothing compared to Zou Zeyu.
“He and Yuebai are the strongest geniuses in the Evil Moon Sect in recent years.
They are known as the twin stars of the Evil Moon Sect.
The sect master of the Evil Moon Sect fell in the outer domain decades ago, and the position has been vacant for decades, simply because no one was qualified to inherit it.
Until Zou Zeyu and Yuebai rose to prominence.
And in a year, whether it’s Yuebai or Zou Zeyu, the Evil Moon Sect will inevitably have to choose a new sect master.”
As Shen Yifeng spoke, his gaze turned serious.
“Kid, if Zou Zeyu wins in the end, then the condition he proposes to Yuebai will definitely be that Yuebai marry him.
This would be a perfect union for the young generation of the Evil Moon Sect.
Moreover, the Elder Council, the true power center of the Evil Moon Sect, is extremely supportive and eager for this to happen.
How about it, kid? Do you still have the same ambition and confidence as before?”
