novelA Man With The Title Of Number One Expert In The World
| ← Ch.0410 | Ch.0412 → |
In modern society, a news story that was on the Internet a month ago would seem as if it was from the last century.
Not to mention the news that appeared six months ago.
Half a year had been enough for many people to forget things. Lu Xuan, who caused a sensation half a year ago, would at least not take the initiative to cause a disturbance.
Outside Yunxuan Villa, a well-dressed Ming Yueyao appeared at the foot of the mountain, followed by a girl of around 13 to 14 years old. She was dressed somewhat similar to Ming Yueyao, as the area between her eyebrows was similar. She looked just like a girl version of Ming Yueyao.
As she grew older, Ming Yueyao had become more and more attractive as a mature woman. Meanwhile, that girl grew to be a young version of Ming Yueyao.
"Sister, who are we visiting today?" The girl said curiously.
She knew of Ming Yueyao's status within the current cultivation circles. She was the Deputy Chief of the Special Task Force, representing the face of the country.
She could even be on an equal footing with the Sectmasters of Maoshan Sect, Celestial Master Taoists, WuTang Clan, and many others.
She was the most promising person in her family.
When it came to this person, however, Ming Yueyao had a rare serious expression on her face with a touch of respect; such a sight was unprecedented.
Ming Yueyao said after a short pause, "He is my benefactor. Had it not been for him, I wouldn't have come this far!"
Her eyes turned towards Yunxuan Villa that was surrounded by clouds and mist!
She felt that the situation was growing more unfathomable. Although Yunxuan Villa had not really done anything during the past six months, ordinary people had almost forgotten about its existence. However, high-leveled cultivators like her would never forget about this villa.
Moreover, her gratitude toward Lu Xuan was genuine. Back then, she was only the Deputy Chief of the Special Task Force branch at the Min Province with average strength. However, her cultivation had been greatly increased thanks to Lu Xuan's instruction. That allowed her to establish her position in the Special Task Force.
Even though she had only improved by one step, everyone was making progress every day in today's world. If she was ahead by one step, then she would continue to stay ahead.
It was not easy for latecomers to catch up to the forerunners.
Except for a few people, almost everyone active in the upsurge of the cultivation circle had pretty much already emerged in the early years nowadays.
Even though she was only one step ahead, she could occupy more resources for cultivation by having more strength and powerful relationships with various people.
This was the so-called "one step ahead"; it meant always staying ahead.
Additionally, their talents would not be worse than those of newcomers. As long as they were ahead, it was almost impossible for the newcomers to catch up.
She had also been one of the people who was falling behind. Lu Xuan took her into the top group, which allowed her to take the lead step by step. She surpassed many of her colleagues and became the Deputy Chief of the Special Task Force, second only to the Chief.
Her position in the Special Task Force granted her immense power. She could even talk and laugh together with the Sectmasters of all major sects and clans, sitting on an equal footing with them.
"Who is he? Is he that amazing?" The young girl asked.
"Lu Xuan is a man known as the number-one expert in the world!" Ming Yueyao said slowly.
"Number one in the world? Is he better than brother-in-law?" The young girl said curiously.
"Mmhmm!"
Ming Yueyao nodded and said, "Your brother-in-law's strength is indeed very powerful, but I'm afraid it's nothing compared to Lu Xuan!"
When Ming Yueyao had married Dragon a few months ago, they became an enviable legendary couple.
The girl opened her lips slightly and looked at Ming Yueyao in disbelief. To her, the strongest man in the world was her brother-in-law, Dragon, the person in command of the Special Task Force.
The Special Task Force was an expert organization, one of the greatest cultivation forces in the world. In such an environment, however, it was almost recognized that the strongest person was the Chief Dragon.
To her surprise, her sister now said that the strongest was not Dragon, but another man named Lu Xuan.
It made her feel even more incredible!
Could there be someone stronger than her brother-in-law?
Suddenly, the clouds were slowly lined up, and the figure of a woman came out. Ming Yueyao also recognized her. It was Ding Zhuxuan, a disciple of Zhang Hongyang, who was now one of the 12 military governors of Heavenly Palace.
Zhang Hongyang's two disciples, Ding Zhuxuan and Shi Danze, had dealt with their Special Task Force several times and could be regarded as acquaintances.
"So strong!"
Ming Yueyao glanced at Ding Zhuxuan and immediately sensed the fluctuation of Spiritual Aether on her. She was at least in the second tier of the Divine Treasure Realm.
This kind of strength was almost on par with hers.
Even so, she was second only to Chief Dragon in the Special Task Force. On the other hand, Ding Zhuxuan was just an ordinary disciple within the Yunxuan Villa despite having a high level of cultivation.
At that moment, Ming Yueyao thought of a piece of news that said Yunxuan Villa and Heavenly Palace had the same setup, but there were still some differences. Yunxuan Villa was under the command of Lu Xuan, being the central place of his own people.
Although the Heavenly Palace was also established by Lu Xuan, many people were sent by various sects and clans to train in rotation. They could only be counted as half of his own people.
Even the Special Task Force had sent people to the Heavenly Palace to receive rotational training!
Yunxuan Villa would also take turns to send disciples to the Heavenly Palace to take various tasks to hone themselves. The disciples in Yunxuan Villa were allowed to be hired by outsiders.
However, very few disciples of Yunxuan Villa were willing to accept the tasks. It was said that the cultivation environment in Yunxuan Villa was better than ever before.
Going out to be hired and accepting tasks would only waste their cultivating time. Unless it was their turn, they were not willing to go out of the mountain at all.
This Yunxuan Villa essentially became a stronghold for men and women consumed by the concept of cultivation.
In the beginning, Ming Yueyao had scoffed that even if the core disciples were treated well, they might not be treated as well as ordinary disciples. When she looked at Ding Zhuxuan's cultivation, however, she only thought that the rumors may be true.
"Chief Ming, please come with me!"
Ding Zhuxuan said before turning around and going into the thick fog.
Ming Yueyao hurriedly took the girl behind her to follow, as she did not dare to have the slightest delay. Outsiders could consider Yunxuan Villa, a protective formation of this mountain, as famous.
As far as their Special Task Force knew, at least 30 groups of assassins and thieves from all over the world had broken into the villa during that period.
Most of them were here for the legendary Divine Tree of Enlightenment.
However, none of them were able to break through the formation. They all died within the formation, and their bodies were thrown out.
She also knew that this formation was dangerous; one wrong step may cost her her life.
Through the layers of thick fog, she was faced with almost liquefied and extremely rich spirit qi. It was like the legendary Blessed Enclave.
