Chapter 333 - Unprecedentedly Powerful in Human History (1/2)

Within half a month.

Everyone knew about Zhou Xuanji defeating Shi Shenzong. Everyone, from the high officials in the empires to the commoners, were talking about this.

This battle pushed Zhou Xuanji’s reputation to the highest it had ever been.

In the hearts of countless people, he was on par with Yang Di.

The two of them would surely battle!

Soon, news about Fu Hao sneak-attacking Zhou Xuanji also spread among the people.

This matter quickly grew, and a storm of verbal attacks against Yang Di was about to begin.

…

In an old and worn temple, Xian Xianghua was cultivating.

Qin Zheng, the leader of the 36 Demon Leaders, stood beside her.

The other Demon Leaders were seated on their own, and each had disbelief on their faces.

Qin Zheng told them about the battle at Sword Emperor Canyon. Finally, he sighed with amazement, “The Sword Emperor is really growing at an alarming rate. It seems that the Sect Lord will not become the top cultivator again.”

If it were another person, he would not dare to say so. But since it was Zhou Xuanji, he was not afraid that Xian Xianghua would become angry.

Having heard that, Xian Xianghua opened her eyes and said proudly, “That is of course. The man that I choose must be extraordinary. He will surely become the top cultivator in the world, and he will be far more than just being the top in the Northern Wilderness Region.”

The Demon Leaders nodded their heads. They were all in amazement.

That young man was only a little more than fifty years old!

The Thousand-Hands Devil, Qin Gang, stood at the corner and had a complex expression on his face.

He remembered his first encounter with Zhou Xuanji. Back then, he did not expect Zhou Xuanji to become this powerful so quickly at all.

The group continued to sigh.

“What is Diablo doing recently?” Xian Xianghua asked.

After reviving the Ancient Diablo, she did not restrict his freedom.

“Sect Lord, the Former Sect Lord is in the north. He seems to be searching for something,” Qin Zheng replied truthfully. He was also a little confused about this.

After Diablo revived, he did not take over the position as the Sect Lord. He did not even mention it.

Xian Xianghua fell into deep thought.

The north was covered in ice and snow. It was a dangerous place to be, but there was also countless serendipity sealed within.

It seemed that Diablo had his own schemes.

Xian Xianghua instructed, “Continue to keep an eye on him. Also, we must continue to recruit followers. The more, the better. I’m not asking for quality.”

Qin Zheng received his orders before leaving swiftly.

Xian Xianghua’s eyes turned cold as she mumbled, “Fu Hao, humph. I will torture you to death.”

…

Back at Skyfall, Jiang Xue, Lin Changge, Huang Lianxin, and the others gathered around Zhou Xuanji to congratulate him.

The news had already spread to them, which excited them for many days.

After defeating the Sword Saint, how reputed would Zhou Xuanji become?

They did not dare to imagine but looked forward.

On the official opening day of their sect, how many cultivators in the world would come to pay their respect when Zhou Xuanji called?

After congratulating Zhou Xuanji, they expressed their rage against Fu Hao’s actions. They all talked about venting their anger by killing Fu Hao.

Zhou Xuanji shook his head in a smile and only replied with some simple words before he walked to a secluded place to cultivate.

Everyone knew that he must have had some kind of insight during the duel, so they no longer disturbed him.

Daoya Old Man gazed at Zhou Xuanji and fell into deep thought.

Something is wrong with this kid’s aura. Could it be that Fu Hao did something to him?”

He mumbled to himself but did not ask Zhou Xuanji.

He did not want to interrupt Zhou Xuanji’s cultivation.

On the way back, Zhou Xuanji had been thinking about the sword soul.
