Chapter 36: Hundred Sword Mountain’s Second Prodigy and Second Beauty!

"Yeah, Junior Sister Wei is so beautiful, nothing can happen to her!"

Wang Jiu nodded in agreement.

Many Disciples were very jealous that Li Xuanfeng could get so close to Wei Qingyan.

However, after Li Xuanfeng's cultivation at the Peak of the ninth level of the Spirit Aperture Realm was detected at the True Martial Hall, even if people were jealous, they didn't dare say anything openly.

"Speaking of which, I think the arrival of the Peak Masters is mostly related to Junior Sister Wei, and definitely has nothing to do with Li Xuanfeng!"

Ding Xian said.

Although Li Xuanfeng's display of the Peak of the ninth level of the Spirit Aperture Realm six days ago had shocked him, that kind of talent wasn't considered top-tier.

Those with truly top-tier talent had already made a Breakthrough to the Qi Cyclone Realm and were promoted to Inner Sect Disciples!

But Wei Qingyan was different.

She was the first-place finisher in this batch of new Disciples' assessment!

The first-place finisher of every batch could still maintain their Prodigy style after entering the inner Sect.

Wei Qingyan's talent was definitely above Li Xuanfeng's, belonging to that top-tier group.

So Ding Xian felt that even if the Peak Masters came for someone, it couldn't possibly be Li Xuanfeng; it was likely Wei Qingyan.

"Junior Sister Wei has high talent and might have some amazing background, which is why she alerted the Peak Masters!"

Wang Jiu thought for a moment and said.

They didn't know the truth and could only make guesses based on some hearsay.

…

Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan's residences were not far apart, just across a mountain Peak.

Including the Sect Leader, there were seven Peak Masters in Hundred Sword Mountain.

Now, the six Peak Masters besides the Sect Leader had all arrived here.

They stood in the air, and with a casual sweep of their Divine Sense, they knew that neither Li Xuanfeng nor Wei Qingyan had returned.

"看来我们还是来早了！"

A tall, burly man with a face full of stubble, who looked like he possessed an explosive sense of power, said.

This person was one of the seven Peaks' Masters, the Peak Master of Sword Casting Peak.

"If you think you're early, you can go back. It'll be one less competitor!"

A man who was constantly playing with a long sword said.

This person was one of the seven Peaks' Masters, the Peak Master of Sword Severing Peak.

"Sigh, if the Sect Leader hadn't spoken up, why would we be waiting here? We would have intercepted them on the way long ago!"

The Peak Master of Sword Washing Peak was a woman, and she couldn't help but sigh when mentioning this.

After Deacon Sun returned to the Sect yesterday, he immediately reported the matter of Fan Jie.

Originally, such a matter wouldn't have been enough to alarm the Peak Masters; the Law Enforcement Elder could have handled it.

But Deacon Sun specifically emphasized the matter of Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan.

Realizing that the two might be peerless Prodigies, the Law Enforcement Elder reported the matter to the Peak Masters and the Sect Leader.

As the few people who truly stood at the very top of Hundred Sword Mountain, the Peak Masters immediately realized that the two possessed some kind of powerful Physique.

With the Peak Masters' experience, they knew that after a Physique's self-obscuration and sudden Awakening, one's Realm would advance by leaps and bounds.

After a meeting and discussion, analysis and supplementation from all sides, and understanding the basic information of Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan joining Hundred Sword Mountain.

They finally deduced that neither Li Xuanfeng nor Wei Qingyan were ordinary Prodigies!

Instead, they were super Prodigies capable of influencing the rise and fall of the Sect!

So everyone was very excited and had the intention of taking them as Disciples.

The weak want to take the strong as their Master, and the strong naturally want to take Geniuses as their Disciples!

Although Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan had not yet returned, the Peak Masters' thoughts were surprisingly consistent—intercept the two midway and take them as Disciples!

It was a case of first come, first served; those who were quick would get them, and those who were slow would miss out.

They were all Peak Masters. If whoever found the two first and proposed the matter of taking them as Disciples, Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan probably wouldn't have the heart to refuse.

They could easily pick up two peerless Geniuses as Disciples; this was a huge stroke of good fortune!

Unfortunately, their thoughts were seen through by the Sect Leader, who did not allow such a thing to happen.

She said everyone must compete fairly. They wanted to take Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan as Disciples, but the two might not necessarily want to choose them as their Master!

After Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan returned, the matter of taking them as Disciples would be discussed!

That was why several Peak Masters had descended upon the outer Sect.

They came here to wait for Li Xuanfeng and Wei Qingyan's return.

"What fair competition? I think the Sect Leader just wants to take them as Disciples herself!"

The Peak Master of Elegant Sword Peak gave a cold smile.

"Hehe, does that even need to be said? The Sect Leader is in a long-term secluded cultivation this time and can't get away for a while. She even used an Incarnation to hold the meeting with us!"

"If she ran outside Hundred Sword Mountain to snatch Disciples with us, her Incarnation probably wouldn't have much of an advantage. That's why she calls it waiting for their return to compete fairly for Disciples!"

The Peak Master of Sword Washing Peak also followed with a cold laugh.

"Sigh~ what can be done? Do you want to make an enemy of the Sect Leader?"

The tall, powerful-looking Peak Master of Sword Casting Peak couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

As soon as he said this, all the Peak Masters froze.

If anyone dared to intercept the two midway and forcibly take them as Disciples, they would be making an enemy of her!

These words were spoken by the Sect Leader herself.

Knowing how terrifying the Sect Leader was, the Peak Masters did not take her words as a joke.

If they really did that, after the Sect Leader came out of seclusion, they would probably inevitably receive a few sword strikes!

Perhaps many Disciples didn't know how terrifying their Sect Leader was, but the Peak Masters knew very well.

The Sect Leader's strength was unfathomable, perhaps the strongest person in the history of Hundred Sword Mountain. If she really acted, the other six Peak Masters combined probably wouldn't be enough to fight her!

The Peak Masters then fell into silence and didn't mention the matter again.

Swish!

A streak of light suddenly flew from the distance.

The newcomer was dressed in black, with a graceful figure and silver hair that was crystal clear, fluttering lightly in the wind.

With a fine nose, red lips, willow-leaf eyebrows, and eyes that were clear and bright, like black gemstones or radiating like gems.

With her appearance, the brilliance of this world seemed to become a bit brighter.

"Wow! It's Fairy Luo!"

"It's actually True Disciple Luo!"

"Is that True Disciple Luo? So beautiful!"

"I didn't expect I'd also have the chance to see True Disciple Luo's Fairy-like face!"

"It's worth it, it's worth it. To see Fairy Luo, even if I'm sent down the mountain in the future, it'll be worth it!"

"I'm different. After seeing True Disciple Luo, I want to stay in Hundred Sword Mountain even more!"

"First it was the Peak Masters, and now it's True Disciple Luo. What on earth is happening in our outer Sect?"

"Who cares what it is? A Fairy has descended to the mortal world. Hurry up and take a few more looks; there might not be a chance to see her in the future!"

…

"So beautiful. In our outer Sect, only Wei Qingyan can compete with her in appearance, right?"

"Whether it's True Disciple Luo or Junior Sister Wei, both are extremely beautiful, just with different styles!"

In the crowd, Wang Jiu and Ding Xian's eyes lit up.

As soon as this woman appeared, she caused countless Outer Sect Disciples to cry out in surprise.

"Luo Li greets the Peak Masters!"

Under the excited and fanatical gazes of countless Outer Sect Disciples, the silver-haired girl in black flew to where the Peak Masters were and gave a simple bow.

"True Disciple Luo is too polite!"

Several Peak Masters immediately smiled.

This silver-haired beauty before them was the Sect Leader's only Personal Disciple, the second Prodigy and second beauty of Hundred Sword Mountain—Luo Li!

Many Disciples of Hundred Sword Mountain might not have seen her in person, but they must have heard her name!

Countless male Disciples would never forget her after seeing Luo Li for the first time, lamenting that there could be such a beautiful woman in the world.

Because of this, Luo Li gained another nickname—Fairy Luo!

Luo Li's talent was Prodigious, her status noble, and her appearance was even more impeccable.

It was normal for her appearance to cause excitement and fanaticism among the Outer Sect Disciples; she often attracted a crowd of fanatical fans when she appeared publicly in the inner Sect.

"What brings True Disciple Luo here?"

The Peak Master of Sword Washing Peak looked at Luo Li and asked, and the other Peak Masters also cast their gazes over.

"To accept Disciples on behalf of my Master!"

Luo Li said with a shallow smile.

"Oh~"

Several Peak Masters immediately breathed a sigh of relief and showed smiles one after another.

The Sect Leader couldn't get away, so she sent her own Disciple to accept Disciples on her behalf. In terms of competition, she was Innately a step weaker than the Peak Masters!

As long as the Sect Leader didn't participate in the competition herself, their hopes would be greater!

A moment later.

Another commotion came from the crowd of Outer Sect Disciples.

Even though Luo Li and the Peak Masters were far away, with their strength, they sensed the movement immediately and cast their gazes over.

They saw a pair of handsome man and beautiful woman riding two mounts.

The mounts seemed to have wind under their feet, carrying them forward briskly, and soon arrived at the area where many Outer Sect Disciples had gathered.

"So lively?"

Li Xuanfeng looked at the Outer Sect Disciples gathered in groups on this mountain Peak and that, and said in surprise.
