Chapter 623 (2/2)

‘But this is nothing. To this world where there is extraordinary strength, little plots and schemes aren’t the crux.’ Lan Yue saw the First Prince’s calm expression and also thought of the possibility of this being his clone.

‘But if this isn’t his clone but his true body, then it’d be even more terrifying.’ Lan Yue looked at the First Prince who was being extremely calm, and she suddenly felt a shiver run up her spine. ‘To have attained the Divine level after cultivating for several decades and then for his powers to be drawn out by his hated foe, condemning him into an ordinary person… This is like plunging down from the clouds into a muddy swamp.

‘If an ordinary Conferred Knight were to encounter such events, their mental state would be affected, and they could even lose their mind and become crazy. However, the First Prince… if this is really his true body, then his mind is really too terrifying. For him to be cultivating in such a mental state… He will be able to pass through all obstacles without any troubles at all.

‘If he were to return and redo his cultivation with such a mindset, he may achieve even more than before. Moreover, he still has his experience and hasn’t lost them.’

The First Prince looked at Fang Xingjian very calmly and continued, “Why? Can it be that you’re going to kill me? Are you worried about my talent and mentality, so you want to wipe me out right now?”

Fang Xingjian shook his head with an indifferent expression as chaos flashed in his eyes. “There’s no need for you to agitate me. I said that I’ll leave you a way out, and that’s what I’ll do.

“If you can’t accept this defeat and wish to return to cultivate, you can go ahead. If you can cultivate to the extent that you can challenge me again, then I surely will anticipate it greatly.

“I only hope that next time, you can take a few more attacks from me. Don’t be like this time, gathering a bunch of useless people and only giving me disappointment.”

The First Prince’s eyelids drooped down, and his tone grew increasingly indiscernible, “Don’t worry, Fang Xingjian. I won’t disappoint you next time.” After saying that, he turned to leave. He headed out, taking one step at a time, just like an ordinary person. Wherever he passed by, the crowd would open up a path.

Although he had lost his powers and become an ordinary person, the aura he exuded grew increasingly unfathomable. Moreover, he still had the remnants of his prestige, and there was no one who would dare to obstruct his path.

Lan Yue walked up to Fang Xingjian and asked, “Sir, you’re going to let him off just like that? Aren’t you afraid that he’ll be back to seek revenge after he has achieved success in his cultivation?

“Having been through such a tremendous change, the First Prince’s will has received the best tempering. Right now, his mental state is even more unfathomable than before. Moreover, he still has his cultivation experience and might really be able to cultivate back to the Divine level.”

“It’s useless,” Fang Xingjian said with a hint of loneliness in his tone. “If you fall behind by one step, you’ll be lagging behind forever. With the changes occurring to the world right now, it will already be too late by the time he catches up and returns to the Divine level.”

Then he turned to look at this beauty of the Mingyue Mountain and said, pondering, “Your Master has been crippled by me. You don’t hate me for that?”

“I wouldn’t dare,” Lan Yue said in a soft and pitiful voice while acting like a docile lady who was about to weep, “Your sword arts are of a world-shaking level, and I’m merely a weak lady. What else can I do but submit to fate?”

However, Fang Xingjian looked at the people from the Full Moon Shrine, who were walking over slowly, and said nonchalantly, “The other members of your sect don’t think the same.”

The several hundred members of the Full Moon Shrine slowly surrounded them. Their eyes were filled with vengeance, terror, anxiety, and many other emotions.

Fang Xingjian had dealt a crushing defeat to the Full Moon Shrine’s pillar—the Blue Sacred Moonlight—and was clenching her in his fist. How could they not harbor feelings of hatred and the desire to seek revenge?

However, Fang Xingjian’s display of strength was too astonishing.

In such a situation, if someone were to agitate them slightly, they would likely go crazy and risk their lives. It would turn out to be another huge massacre.
