Spirit Through the Heavens

After the initial shock, Shen Yanping and the others immediately showed respectful expressions.    

Although Sovereign Jin's cultivation base was only at the Supreme Stage, his strength was much stronger than Shen Yanping and the others.    

If the Supreme Stage was further divided into different levels, Sovereign Jin's strength should be around the late stage of the Venerable realm, while Shen Yanping and the others were only at the early stage of the Venerable realm.    

The difference between the early stage and the late stage was huge. Therefore, Sovereign Jin was able to defeat everyone on the scene with a single strike, including Lu Feng.    

Lu Feng's strength was not weak, especially after he used the Chop Hong Sword. Although his strength was not comparable to Sovereign Jin's, he should still be able to reach the intermediate stage of the Venerable realm.    

Of course, Luo Long's strength had reached the peak of the Venerable realm at his peak. Therefore, Lu Feng was still far from being able to defeat him.    

"No need for formalities."    

Sovereign Jin nodded as he looked at Shen Yanping and the others.    

"Luo Long, can I talk to you alone?" After Sovereign Jin finished talking to Shen Yanping and the others, he looked at Lu Feng.    

"Of course!" Lu Feng smiled and nodded.    

After saying this to Sovereign Jin, Lu Feng turned to Liu Mu and ordered, "Liu Mu, I will have to trouble you to clean up this place. Sovereign Jin, come with me."    

After saying this, Lu Feng walked towards a direction. Sovereign Jin quickly followed after him.    

This City Lord's Mansion was very big, so Lu Feng quickly brought Sovereign Jin to another hall.    

"Sovereign Jin, do you have anything you want to tell me?" Lu Feng gestured for him to sit down, then he took the lead and sat down.    

Sovereign Jin sat opposite of Lu Feng and showed a serious face.    

"Sovereign Jin, can you not be so serious? It makes me feel uncomfortable all over." Lu Feng saw Sovereign Jin's face and quickly said.    

"Luo Long, don't you know the seriousness of the matter? Why don't you keep hiding it? This way, no one will know that you have returned. But now, you have become the City Lord of Sky Region City. I'm afraid that the entire Hong Realm knows that you will return. " Jin Yan said with a serious expression.    

"Jin Yan, I know everything you said. Don't worry, I'm fine. You don't have to worry about me." Lu Feng said with a smile.    

Seeing that Lu Feng didn't seem to know how dangerous he was right now, Jin Yan continued, "Luo Long, aren't you afraid that Lord Hong will know? It was Lord Hong who told Wu Hao to mess with you. Now, you have returned in such a high-profile manner. If Lord Hong finds out about this, something will definitely happen to you."    

"Lord Hong?"    

Lu Feng couldn't help but sneer when he heard these two words. Then, he gently grabbed with his right hand, and a mask appeared in his hand.    

"This is?"    

Jin Yan saw the mask in Lu Feng's hand, and a puzzled look appeared in his eyes, because this mask was somewhat familiar to him.    

"Jin Yan, look who I am...!"    

Under Jin Yan's curious gaze, Lu Feng put the mask on his face. After that, his appearance and Qi changed completely.    

"Ah!"    

But when Jin Yan saw Lu Feng's appearance, he couldn't help but cry out in shock.    

"Actually, it was Lord Hong who arranged for me to join Strength Sovereign's camp, so there is no need for you to worry about me. If he wanted to mess with me, I wouldn't be standing in front of you right now." Lu Feng said with a smile.    

"What? Lord Hong already knew about your existence. Then why..." Jin Yan did not continue, but Lu Feng knew what he meant.    

"This? I am not sure either, but since he did not want to mess with me, then what's there to be afraid of? Besides... This is the Hong Realm. If he wants to mess with me, I won't be able to escape even if I want to. Otherwise, why would I be forced to reincarnate? " Lu Feng continued.    

Upon hearing this, Jin Yan nodded silently. Indeed, in Hong Realm, Lord Hong was the heavens. Who would dare go against the heavens?    

"Jin Yan, no matter what, thank you for your concern today." Lu Feng looked at the silent Jin Yan and thanked him.    

"There's nothing to thank me for. If you can forgive me for my mistake back then, then I will feel at ease." Jin Yan said.    

"What's there to fuss about? If it wasn't for you... I might have died in Wu Hao's world a long time ago. Besides... Back then, you were under Lord Hong's orders. That wasn't your intention. If Wu Hao hadn't come today, I wouldn't have minded what happened earlier. After all, that was already in the past. " Lu Feng said.    

"Lu Feng, Wu Hao was in the wrong, but he was afraid that you would get even with him after you recovered to your peak strength. This way, you will spare his life for my sake. After all, you have already made him very miserable. His strength is no longer as strong as before. " Jin Yan pleaded on Wu Hao's behalf.    

If it wasn't for the fact that Wu Hao's strength had been greatly reduced, Jin Yan wouldn't have been able to injure him so easily.    

"If it was before, I would have agreed to it, but you saw it just now. He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to kill me. Do you think I can still spare him?" Lu Feng frowned slightly.    

Lu Feng had sympathy, but he did not want to treat Wu Hao with sympathy, because Wu Hao had already lost the right to do so.    

"Then... Are you going to kill him? He was one of Ten Honored Supreme. If you kill him... Will Lord Hong agree? He was afraid of fighting and killing between the strong, because this was weakening the strength of his side." Jin Yan said.    

At this point, Jin Yan paused for a moment, then continued, "In the previous battle between the three worlds, our Hong Realm suffered a crushing defeat after winning three victories and seven defeats. Therefore, Lord Hong will not allow us to kill each other."    

"Three wins and seven losses. This is indeed a bad result. However, if Wu Hao is no longer Ten Honored Supreme, I don't think Lord Hong will care about his life or death." Lu Feng said with a smile.    

"En?"    

Jin Yan was shocked when he heard that, but in the next second, he remembered what Lu Feng meant.    

Ten Honored Supreme was going to participate in the war between the three realms. If they killed each other, it would undoubtedly weaken the strength of Hong Realm, so Lord Hong naturally wouldn't allow it.    

However, if it wasn't for Ten Honored Supreme, Lord Hong wouldn't have cared too much about it. After all, there was still competition in this world, and only through competition could one make progress.    

"Luo Long, don't tell me you want to make a move on Wu Hao in Ten Honored Supreme's ranking." Jin Yan frowned slightly.    

"Hehe, why not? Didn't you say before that his strength is no longer as strong as before? Therefore, his ranking will definitely be higher than the fifth place." Lu Feng said with a smile.    

When Jin Yan saw Lu Feng's serious look, he opened his mouth but didn't say anything.    

Although he didn't want anything to happen to Wu Hao, it was indeed a little too much for Wu Hao to suddenly attack Lu Feng just now. It was reasonable for the latter to seek revenge now.    

"Luo Long, since you want revenge, I won't say anything. However, you can't be careless. After all, you want to compete for Ten Honored Supreme's spot. You have to first stand out from the numerous candidates, Supreme Expert, and obtain the right to challenge him." Jin Yan said.    

Although the rules had changed this time, it was still difficult to stand out from the many candidates.    

"What? Are you still not confident in my strength? Although I haven't recovered to my peak, I still have some confidence in obtaining the right to challenge." Lu Feng raised his brows and said.    

Jin Yan naturally didn't dare to have any doubts about Lu Feng's words. He was Luo Long, a mighty warrior who was comparable to Sword Sovereign in the past.    

Although he had been reborn, the fact that he could reach the Venerable realm step by step proved that he was extraordinary.    

Therefore, there was no doubt that Lu Feng would be able to re-enter the ranks of Ten Honored Supreme. However, if he had just entered the ranks, his strength wouldn't be much higher than Ten Honored Supreme's.    

However, even if he was ranked tenth, he would still be one of Ten Honored Supreme.    

"Luo Long, although Lord Hong hasn't attacked you yet, I'm sure he won't attack you in the future. Perhaps the current you won't arouse any interest in him, but once you return to your peak state... That might be different, so you have to take care of yourself. My suggestion is that you give up your hatred towards Wu Hao. Don't participate in the Venerable Ranking Competition. Just be the City Lord of Sky Region City. " Jin Yan thought for a while and continued to persuade him.    

Although Jin Yan knew very well that once Luo Long decided on something, it would be very difficult to change it, but even so, as a friend, he still hoped that Luo Long would listen to him.    

It wasn't a bad thing to be unable to become one of Ten Honored Supreme's friends. At the very least, he would be able to live a safe and sound life. He wouldn't have to work hard to improve his strength for the sake of the Battle of Three Realms.    

If Jin Yan could choose, he would rather not participate in the ranking competition and not become one of Ten Honored Supreme. Perhaps his current life would be even better.    

However, Jin Yan had no possibility of being reborn, so he could only think about it. However, Lu Feng was different. If he participated in the qualifiers competition again, he would be walking the same path as before.    

Jin Yan did not know why Lord Hong wanted to fight Luo Long back then, but he was pretty sure that once Luo Long had the power at the peak of that year, he might be in trouble again.    

This time, Lord Hong would not give him the chance to do it again.    

"Jin Yan, thank you for caring so much about me, but I have made up my mind. Actually, I didn't decide to participate in the ranking competition because I wanted to take revenge on Wu Hao. I also don't know why. But deep in my heart, I want to participate in the qualifiers competition. I can't stop it no matter what. " Lu Feng explained.    

In fact, Lu Feng was already very satisfied when he thought about it. Even with his current strength, there were hardly any opponents in the entire Hong Realm.    

However, for some reason, Lu Feng really wanted to participate in the ranking competition and become a Venerable again. Could this be an instinctive reaction of Luo Long's soul?    

Although Lu Feng did not know why, he believed that as long as he became one of Ten Honored Supreme, everything would be revealed.
