Upon the solitary boat, the face of the white-clad woman always bore that serene, comfortable smile. Then, her form slowly rose from the boat, and she stepped off of it, her feet landing upon the surface of the lake.
Afterward, she spoke again to Shi Feng, nodding slightly, saying: "Farewell!"
"Mm, farewell!" Shi Feng nodded in response.
Following that, the white-clad woman turned around, her feet walking step by step, gracefully towards the shore.
Shi Feng remained still, still sitting cross-legged upon the lake's surface, his eyes fixated upon the graceful figure in white, watching her grow farther away from him.
At that moment, he didn't know what he was thinking deep in his heart.
"Perhaps it's time for me to face certain matters," Shi Feng muttered to himself.
Then his mind was filled with the image of that celestial figure from the past, that unparalleled, beautiful, fair countenance.
…
"That kid!" In the distant void on the opposite shore of the lake, Shi Feng hadn't yet noticed the three figures currently suspended there.
Not only Shi Feng, but even Jian Ze and Jian Yin hidden in the shadows hadn't noticed.
One figure was a handsome middle-aged man, while the other two were elder men.
It was precisely the Jian Family Patriarch, Jian Yu, along with Fengg and Yun.
Elder Fengg spoke, saying: "It seems that the grandmasters want to use Jian Wan to draw that kid in!"
As Elder Fengg's words fell, Elder Yun said coldly: "Looks like these two still haven't given up until now!"
Jian Yu, having comprehended Heavenly Earth as Sword, had been acknowledged by many Jian Family members who previously doubted him.
Originally, they thought Jian Ze and Jian Yin would have settled, but unexpectedly, these two continued to employ such means.
Even Jian Yu slowly spoke out at this moment: "I originally thought they should have given up. Never expected, my repeated concessions have only made them push further!"
As Jian Yu said these words, suddenly, a fierce killing intent surged from his body.
Sensing the killing intent emanating from Jian Yu, the old faces of Fengg and Yun simultaneously changed, followed by filling with joy.
Years ago, they'd advised Jian Yu to find an opportunity to eliminate those two, to prevent future troubles.
Yet, Jian Yu had always cherished the brotherhood, unwilling to lay a hand on them.
Looks like now, these two have indeed enraged Jian Yu.
Next, Elder Yun spoke again: "Perhaps due to the emergence of this Evil Demon, Jian Ze and Jian Yin wish to place all their hope upon this Evil Demon?"
Some days ago, I even thought that if this kid stayed within the Jian Family, if he continued to grow, perhaps he would become another who comprehends Heavenly Earth as Sword."
"Another to comprehend Heavenly Earth as Sword!" Hearing Elder Yun's words, Fengg couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
Indeed, Elder Yun's words were incredibly astounding.
If that kid really chooses to remain with the Jian Family, if he too comprehends Heavenly Earth as Sword, and thereafter, the Patriarch Jian Yu enters True God Third Heaven, and that kid also enters True God Third Heaven, how formidable would the Jian Family be!
Estimates suggest the entire Small World would respect the Jian Family above all!
Even Jian Yu nodded slowly in agreement with Elder Yun's words: "Actually, if this kid continues to grow, if he cultivates Heavenly Earth as Sword, he really might comprehend it!
And don't forget, this Evil Demon, though now only a Nine-star Demigod, his battle power can be said to be invincible within True God First Heaven!"
"Indeed!" Elder Fengg nodded: "I've heard that a few days ago Jian Lai, Jian Ye, and Jian Ji joined forces to challenge this Evil Demon, and in the end, all were defeated by him! If one day this kid truly succeeds in stepping into the True God Third Heaven Realm, what would such a terrifying existence bring!"
Upon saying this, Fengg's eyes suddenly widened, his face showing shock because of his own words.
"Thus, Jian Ze and Jian Yin, lacking the Patriarch's talent, place all their hopes upon this Evil Demon!" Elder Yun said:
"They wish for Jian Wan to allure this Evil Demon, making him stand by their side, and then cultivate this Evil Demon with all their might, hoping to turn the tide with him!
Those two really play a calculated game!" As Elder Yun spoke, even his tone had turned icy.
And they've already noticed, the face of Patriarch Jian Yu has grown colder and colder.
It's their first time witnessing Jian Yu reveal such an icy visage.
"Jian Feng! Shi Feng!" Jian Yu's mouth murmured the name, his eyes still tightly fixed on the black figure sitting cross-legged upon the lake.
…
The white-clad woman had long left the lake, disappearing from Shi Feng's sight, yet his eyes still quietly stared in her direction of departure, his expression thoughtful.
After a while, Shi Feng's seated form slowly stood up, then also began walking leisurely towards the shore.
Not long after, Shi Feng exited the lake, continuing to walk leisurely along the shore, walking and walking, unwittingly entering a forest where Heavenly Earth Yuan Qi was extraordinarily dense.
"Jian Feng." Just then, a gentle call sounded from Shi Feng's right.
Upon hearing the call, Shi Feng turned his head slowly to look, and it was Jian Ran, the Jian Family's Second Young Lady, who called out to him.
"What a coincidence!" Seeing Jian Ran, Shi Feng nodded to her.
"What coincidence, I knew you were here, so I specifically came to find you." Jian Ran said in response.
"Oh!" Hearing her words, Shi Feng's expression slightly changed, then he asked: "Specifically to find me? Is there something?"
With a quick movement, Jian Ran suddenly appeared beside Shi Feng, "Hey!" she sighed gently saying, "I heard my elder brother, second brother, and elder sister disturbed you at the Flower Viewing Pavilion a few days back. And the result… they were all defeated by you."
"Oh, so those three are your siblings?" Shi Feng spoke with a look of sudden realization on his face.
He was wondering why three geniuses suddenly appeared from the Jian Family, turns out they are the children of Jian Family Patriarch Jian Yu.
The strength of Jian Yu is already formidable, thus giving rise to these three geniuses isn't surprising.
"Indeed!" Answering with these two words, Jian Ran's fair face had already turned slightly red.
She knew the reason those three went to challenge Shi Feng, it was entirely because… of herself…
Because of that rumor currently circulating within the Jian Family.
Thinking of that rumor, staring at the person involved in the rumor right before her.
Jian Ran, after all, is just a young lady…
Then, Shi Feng continued: "Next time you see them, tell them if they wish to provoke me, they should bring more people along.
Hmm… just this morning your elder sister provoked me again, I've already warned her clearly."
