Chapter 145: #145 - Fire

Ignoring her wrist, she frowned, her dark eyebrows furrowed as she stared intently at Chu Zhiyuan, finding it hard to comprehend, "How could it be so fast!"

This speed already far exceeded his cultivation level, she snorted, "You must have reached the third heaven, right?"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled, "Breaking through to the third heaven of the tower, coincidentally, Princess, you did it yesterday morning, and I did it last night, also spurred on by the princess, thus making a desperate attempt, and finally succeeding by luck... I really have to thank you!" He truly felt fortunate.

"You really won?"

"He actually really won!"...

The discussions on the plaza gradually rose, becoming louder and louder, the silence of the plaza instantly transforming into the bustling atmosphere of Phoenix Avenue within the city. Everyone found it hard to believe.

If they had thought in advance that Chu Zhiyuan would win, they wouldn't have been so pleasantly surprised.

Previously, they had been filled with despair, feeling that Chu Zhiyuan would undoubtedly lose this time, which is why they now felt such surprise and excitement.

Bai Ning霜 excitedly grabbed Chu Yi's hand on one side and Xiao Ruoling's hand on the other, discovering that Chu Yi was indifferent, while Xiao Ruoling's hand was tightly clenched. "He really won!" Bai Ning霜 muttered, her eyes already moist.

"Mother, what's so special about this?" Chu Yi said nonchalantly, "Big brother was always going to win."

"This victory was very difficult!" Bai Ning霜 chided, "You stay in the manor all day long and don't go out, you don't know the situation outside, everyone thought your big brother was going to lose." "How could big brother possibly lose?" Chu Yi didn't think so.

In her eyes, Chu Zhiyuan could not be defeated.

Unless he didn't take action, otherwise, once he did, he would definitely win.

Bai Ning霜 was too lazy to talk to Chu Yi any further, turning her head to look at Xiao Ruoling, "Ruoling, this time it was really close!"

"It was very close." Xiao Ruoling nodded gently, "The Ninth Princess is extremely powerful, but this time she met the heir."

"She is powerful, but Yuan'er is even more powerful!" Bai Ning霜 beamed, feeling that Xiao Ruoling was the most eloquent, her words were so pleasing to the ear.

Cheng Tianfeng stared blankly at Chu Zhiyuan and Li Hongzhao on the stage, muttering, "Worthy of being Chu Zhiyuan!... His progress is so fast... like a demon, like a demon!" Mo Chunyu's expression was solemn.

The victory this time was not due to Chu Zhiyuan's cultivation level, nor his swordsmanship, but his speed. He must have practiced some kind of extraordinary technique to achieve such incredible speed.

Swift as a phantom, impossible to defend against.

If it were only by relying on his cultivation level, only relying on his swordsmanship, although his sword momentum was also fast and his power was also strong, it would have been impossible to win so easily. He won with an almost crushing momentum.

What kind of extraordinary technique did he practice? This was what he was truly concerned about.

As for the victory or defeat, he didn't care much about it, victory or defeat had nothing to do with Great Zhen. Cheng Tianfeng sighed, "How can I catch up!"

He had already mustered his fighting spirit, his ambition rekindled, feeling that with his own talent and comprehension, as long as he didn't compare himself to Chu Zhiyuan, he would still be the best in the world, unmatched by anyone. Now, seeing Chu Zhiyuan enter the Grandmaster realm as easily as walking on flat ground, crossing the Grandmaster realm as easily as splitting bamboo, as easily as drinking water.

He couldn't help but sigh, he really was a monster.

There was really no need for a normal person like himself to compare himself to him.

Mo Chunyu looked at Cheng Tianfeng and said calmly, "There's no need to chase after him, he is the heir of Great Jing, you only need to become the number one person in Great Zhen." "That's right..." Cheng Tianfeng murmured, "He is the heir of Great Jing, I am the heir of Great Zhen, we don't interfere with each other."

Mo Chunyu said, "Moreover, his rapid progress may not be a good thing, it may be a hasty pursuit of quick success, and his foundation must be unstable."

Cheng Tianfeng's spirits lifted, and he slowly said, "What Uncle Master said makes sense!... His foundation is unstable, he can't enter the Great Grandmaster realm, as long as I become a Great Grandmaster!" A smile appeared on his lips, "Great Jing suffered a terrible defeat this time, I estimate that there is no possibility of making peace with the Great Meng."

Mo Chunyu nodded.

Great Jing valued face and would never negotiate peace with Great Meng under such circumstances. If they were to negotiate peace, they would have to defeat the Stepping Cloud Iron Cavalry first and take back the lost military towns.

But losing military towns was easy, and wanting to take them back was not so easy. Even if King Ying personally led the troops, it might not succeed. At that time, the alliance between Great Jing and Great Zhen would be even closer, attacking from both sides, forcing Great Meng to stop the war and be honest. "Uncle Master, let's go back."

"Yes, let's go."

Cheng Tianfeng and Mo Chunyu took a deep look at Chu Zhiyuan on the stage and turned to leave. As they left, the knights in white robes and white sabers followed.

At this time, only a very small number of people left, most of them stayed in the square, immersed in discussions and excited praises. Venting their excitement and high spirits, as if Great Jing had won a great victory.

Chu Zhiyuan looked at Li Hongzhao, "Is Your Highness alright?"

Li Hongzhao snorted, "Xiao Zhiyuan, you are really ruthless, you don't know how to cherish women at all, you rude and smelly man!" Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Your Highness is not a weak woman, but a female phoenix, then I will take my leave, we will meet again!"

After he said that, he floated down from the high platform and landed beside Chu Minghou and the others. Bai Ning霜 carefully looked him up and down, "Are you injured?"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I'm unscathed... Mother, we should go back, Father-in-law, Father, let's go." "Yes, it's time to go back." Chu Minghou nodded.

He looked at the surrounding situation, seeing people approaching, thankfully there were guards, otherwise someone would have rushed over by now.

"Your victory this time is crucial, Heir."

Chu Zhiyuan and Xiao Youping sat in the front hall, drinking tea and chatting idly.

They met in front of the Qing Prince's residence. Xiao Ruoling hadn't married yet and was embarrassed to always visit the Qing Prince's residence, so Chu Zhiyuan sent their family back to the Anguo Duke's residence. Chu Zhiyuan said, "I won by luck."

"It doesn't look like you won by luck at all, the difference seems to be very large instead."

"Actually, it's not as big as it seems. The Phoenix Cry Soaring Heavens Art that Li Hongzhao cultivates is very strange. If it were a life-and-death battle, it would be hard to say." He could sense that Li Hongzhao had not used her full strength.

Her recovery speed from injuries was astonishing.

Being injured was the same as not being injured, like the injuries on her shoulder and back, which would basically affect her movements. But she was unaffected, as if her body had no pain nerves.

The reality of Ultra-Sense Insight was that her body rapidly repaired after being injured, accumulating the power that he had attacked into her body and converting it into her own power, which would make her stronger and stronger. This was likely the marvel of the Phoenix Cry Soaring Heavens Art.

The so-called Phoenix Sword Sect, phoenix nirvana, rebirth from the ashes, and looking at Li Hongzhao's sword light and gaze, it should be a state of rebirth from the ashes. This was likely to keep her in a state of resurrection.

If he hadn't practiced the Imperial Heaven and Earth Sutra, he wouldn't have believed this, and he wouldn't have thought of this, he would have found it incredible. If it was really as he expected, Li Hongzhao was extremely terrifying.

Now her cultivation level was not considered strong, but if she became stronger in the future, once she was on the battlefield, or fighting with others, she would become an immortal body. Once that happened, she would be fearless and extremely terrifying.
