Chapter 826: Drunk and Outdone
The East Sea Demon Emperor maintained a courteous demeanor.
Noticing two young disciples following behind him.
The male disciple was handsome and elegant, exuding the aura of Ninth Layer of Core Formation.
She recognized him and revealed a look of approval:
"I remember you're called Xiang Zhenyuan, right?"
"Not seen for two years, already cultivated to the Peak of Core Formation, quite impressive."
Xiang Zhenyuan looked at the beautiful Sea Demon Emperor before him, of the same age as himself and his companions.
Slightly reserved, he quickly said, "I'm grateful the East Sea Demon Emperor still remembers the younger generation."
"Two years ago, I was fortunate to use your palace's Washing Spirit Pool to break through the Jiedan Eighth Layer, which led to today."
The East Sea Demon Emperor nodded slightly.
Then looked at another seventeen-year-old girl with Jiedan Eighth Layer cultivation.
She had a slender figure, commendable appearance, and well-applied makeup.
There was a slight arrogance in her eyes.
"Isn't she the phenomenal new disciple that Master Wei once mentioned?"
"Reaching Jiedan Eighth Layer at seventeen, truly remarkable."
"Much stronger than my East Sea Demon Clan."
The East Sea Demon Emperor generously praised.
Such a young Jiedan Eighth Layer is among the top in Taicang State.
Wei Wuji waved his hand: "Gui Fengyin, won't you come and meet the East Sea Demon Emperor?"
Gui Fengyin stepped forward, politely bowing.
In front of the famous East Sea Demon Emperor, how could she dare to have an arrogant heart?
Moreover, it was indeed as rumored.
She truly is beautiful, this East Sea Demon Emperor.
Timeless beauty, unmatched power at the summit of the current era.
She has become the dream of all women.
No wonder the master always holds her in his heart.
Such an ageless, undefeated stunning Demon Emperor, who wouldn't like her?
If she were a man, she would be just as interested.
Wei Wuji took pride in Gui Fengyin, saying: "Fengyin is considered one of my recent generations' most outstanding disciples in the Void Space Realm."
"It's a pity she's a female disciple; otherwise, she'd very likely be on the Dharma Seal Vajra's transformative list."
Xiang Zhenyuan felt a sense of envy internally.
His talent was also excellent.
Ranked well within the Void Space Realm.
Yet he hadn't caught the eye of the Dharma Seal Vajra.
Unable to ascend to that legendary transformative list.
The East Sea Demon Emperor nodded with a smile: "Quite a fine young lady."
But internally, he disagreed slightly.
Even if Gui Fengyin were a male disciple, it's unlikely she would make the transformative list.
In Taicang State, there are many supposed prodigies even more famous than Gui Fengyin.
Yet only a few make it onto the transformative list pointed out by Dharma Seal Vajra.
His transformative list isn't decided by outsiders assuming who should definitely make it.
Without his personal nomination, it counts for nothing.
Likely those words, somewhat overly optimistic.
Huh?
Wait a minute!
Speaking of which, didn't Jiang Fan get onto the Dharma Seal Vajra's transformative list?
Previously, she didn't have a direct impression of this.
Compared to Gui Fengyin before her.
Just realized Jiang Fan's astonishing talent.
Seventeen-year-old Jiedan Eighth Layer might not even make the transformative list.
Yet Jiang Fan did!
"Is this little guy's weight so high?"
The East Sea Demon Emperor couldn't help but mutter.
"What are you saying?"
Wei Wuji asked in surprise.
Why is the East Sea Demon Emperor speaking to him while thinking about someone else?
Little guy?
Who could that be?
"Oh, no one."
The East Sea Demon Emperor snapped back to reality.
Naturally, she wouldn't reveal Jiang Fan's background to avoid unnecessary trouble for him.
Her gaze returned to Gui Fengyin, she asked:
"Master Wei, is your trip here for this little disciple to use the Washing Spirit Pool?"
Wei Wuji waved his hand: "Not for such a small matter to trouble you?"
He said seriously: "The Hell Beast has activated the Connecting Sky Black Pillar, and the Void Space Realm is already aware."
"I was dispatched by the continent to investigate."
"Passing through East Sea, I thought to pay you a visit."
"By the way, if it's convenient, let my little disciple use the Washing Spirit Pool."
The East Sea Demon Emperor directly ignored his second-to-last sentence.
Nodded and said: "Using the Washing Spirit Pool can be arranged…"
Suddenly.
She remembered Jiang Fan was still in the Washing Spirit Pool.
Hopefully, there won't be any conflicts, right?
But thinking of Jiang Fan as a gentleman, she said:
"It's possible."
"However, there's someone already practicing in the Washing Spirit Pool."
"When Fengyin uses it, try to keep a distance from him to avoid mutual interference."
Gui Fengyin repeatedly nodded: "The younger generation surely understands."
She was worried about others disturbing her.
As such a prodigy, every opportunity to cultivate is extremely valuable.
Not allowing it to be wasted.
Someone else?
Wei Wuji felt a thread of surprise but didn't take it seriously.
Perhaps it's a meritorious member of the Demon Race.
"Zhenyuan, accompany Fengyin together and go."
"If there's mutual interference, stop immediately to prevent any misunderstanding."
Xiang Zhenyuan cupped his fists: "Yes, Master."
The East Sea Demon Emperor instructed a Demon King to lead the two of them ahead.
Then said: "Master Wei, let's chat in the living room."
"I was nearby when the Connecting Sky Black Pillar appeared."
"If the Void Space Realm wants to know something, perhaps I can answer some."
Wei Wuji was very surprised.
"You were on the scene that day?"
"Well then, saves a trip to the continent."
The East Sea Demon Emperor gently nodded.
But internally couldn't help but grumble: "Old Dream's long legs were really worth it."
"I just returned to the East Sea, hardly settled down, and she already took the news to Taicang State."
"Pity those long legs, gone to her wretched husband."
Spirit Pond.
At this moment, Jiang Fan was entirely unconscious.
Fortunately, before getting tipsy, he entered the cultivation state.
The roots of the Void Ancient Tree continuously absorbed the Spiritual Energy from the Spirit Pond.
His body was filled with Spiritual Power, faintly reaching the critical point.
About to break through to Jiedan Eighth Layer.
"There really is someone."
Gui Fengyin stood by the pond, vaguely seeing the figure in the pink mist, and softly muttered.
Xiang Zhenyuan pressed his hand down, saying: "Do not be disrespectful."
Then immediately cupped his hands and said: "Brother, we're borrowing the Spirit Pond for cultivation."
"Sorry to disturb."
The other party remained motionless.
Xiang Zhenyuan's clasped fists slowly lowered in slight embarrassment.
Gui Fengyin snorted lightly: "Quite arrogant indeed."
"My senior brother spoke and he's ignoring him."
Xiang Zhenyuan said: "Forget it; their territory, you say fewer words."
"Hurry up and cultivate."
"The Spiritual Energy in this Spirit Pond is very abundant, enough for you to break through to Ninth Layer of Core Formation."
Gui Fengyin nodded.
Immediately entered the Spirit Pond and quickly felt the abundant Spiritual Energy.
Happily closed her eyes, operated the mental method to absorb the Spiritual Energy into her body.
But as soon as she began absorbing, she noticed something was off.
The Spiritual Energy in the pond was all converging toward that figure.
It was like a hole at the bottom of the pond.
All the Spiritual Energy flowed towards him.
"Odd, what mental method is this, so domineering?"
Gui Fengyin was slightly discontent.
If in the Taicang State, someone stronger than herself, that would be fine.
But being overshadowed by someone in the East Sea, that's embarrassing.
"Competing in mental methods?"
"Haha, my Void Space Realm's mental methods rank in the top ten in the Outer Realm Divine Sect."
"Still afraid of comparison?"
