96 Tip of an Iceberg (1/2)

The Lord tier deadly beast's corpse lay shattered in the ground nearby.

Lord Guanjun stood with his hands behind his back in front of the beast, looking at his six disciples, Bei Moi, Yang Qingshan, Nan Gongfan, Feng Hanyue, Zhao Feng,and Zhao Yufei.

The six youths were the elite prodigies of Guanjun Province City, but Lord Guanjun’s attention was mainly focused on Bei Moi.

“A chance?” Zhao Feng’s eyes twinkled, he didn’t know what Lord Guanjun meant?

On the way here, Zhao Feng had seen what had happened between the two, including all the actions. But he couldn’t hear what they were saying.

“Master, what do you mean?” Feng Hanyue asked, unable to conceal his curiosity.

The biggest chance he had to change his destiny was to become Lord Guanjun’s disciple. Awaiting the answer, the others were all anticipating.

“This chance is also your Master’s wish…” Lord Guanjun sighed softly as his eyes looked into the distance with longing, hate, anticipation, and other complex emotions.

Being someone who had absolute power in Guanjun Province City, what could stir so many emotions in him?

Zhao Feng had seen similar emotions that day in the Spiritual Martial Hall. But at that time, Lord Guanjun’s emotions passed by in a flash with only Zhao Feng able to catch it.

He had asked that day why Lord Guanjun searched for so many geniuses?

Lord Guanjun’s reply was to fulfill a wish.

Wish?

What could his wish be? A wish that he couldn’t even achieve and could only rely on the younger generation?

_Teng! Sou! Sou!_

Right at this time, the nearby strong cultivators, including Ye Linyun and General Heng, headed over, but Lord Guanjun lifted his hand and signaled them to leave.

Although Ye Linyun, General Heng and the others were slightly curious, they left without hesitation.

The scene made the six youths realize that Lord Guanjun had something important to say.

“Did any of you see the mysterious hooded figure?” Lord Guanjun seemed to change the topic.

“Yes, disciple here saw him last time in the Sky Cloud Forest…” Zhao Feng immediately answered.

The only ones who had actually seen the hooded figure were Zhao Feng and Bei Moi. Zhao Feng had seen him twice.

“Oh?”

Lord Guanjun looked at Zhao Feng, slightly stunned. “How strong do you think he was?”

“Very strong!” Zhao Feng thought about how the figure had made his moves the two times and his heart couldn’t help but turn cold.

Lord Guanjun smiled, “Do you think that he is stronger than me?”

This…

Zhao Feng diddn’t think that his Master would ask this sort of question. Under the gaze of someone who had reached the Holy Martial Path, Zhao Feng could only answer, “Personally, disciple here thinks that the opponent is at least on par with Master, if not stronger…”

Since he had the mysterious left eye, Zhao Feng was very accurate on how strong someone was. His answer still contained a slight suspicious tone to it.

“Zhao Feng! What are you saying? How dare you look down upon Master and praise the enemy?” Nan Gongfan immediately exclaimed.

The brows of Bei Moi, Yang Qingshan and Feng Hanyue also furrowed, it was obvious that they didn’t believe him.

In the Cloud Country, Lord Guanjun was a legendary figure with supreme power and status. Being disciples of such a person, how could they be not confident?

Only Zhao Yufei believed Zhao Feng, a trust based on something that she couldn’t understand.

Zhao Feng’s reply surprised Lord Guanjun, and the latter couldn’t help but look at him a few more times. This was the first time that he had really inspected this disciple of his.

Nan Gongfan and the others were all shocked, it seemed that Master didn’t seem unhappy. In fact, he seemed to look at Zhao Feng in a new way.

“Say the truth, what do you think?” Lord Guanjun stared at him.

Zhao Feng couldn’t help but remember the stand off between Master and the hooded figure.
