History's Strongest Senior Brother c1-1474

  “No matter if it’s a big or small matter, someone has to do it either way. Those that can settle these matters would be considered terrific,” said Yan Zhaoge with a chuckle.

  Xu Fei laughed, “As expected, there’s no need for me to praise you. You’re already praising yourself.”

  After laughing, his expression turned serious, and he softly asked, “Zhaoge, are we about to face the Nine Underworlds to settle our grudges soon?”

  “I can’t be too sure about the specific time. Although this is pretty frustrating, our opponent holds the upper hand.” Yan Zhaoge’s expression turned serious as well, “However, it is indeed happening soon. No matter if it’s me, Yunsheng, or the Astro Sovereign, we hold the same viewpoint.”

  Xu Fei nodded silently. He took a leather bag from his waist and pulled out the cork. The fragrance of wine started spreading everywhere.

  He raised his head to chug it a few times. Then, he casually passed it to Yan Zhaoge.

  Yan Zhaoge was already used to such a situation. After receiving the leather bag, he chugged it a few times before returning it to Xu Fei.

  After receiving the leather bag, Xu Fei drank all the remaining wine and breathed out a long breath.

  The few hints of gloominess on his face disappeared. He then smiled and said, “Originally, we could only await our fate. Yet, they merely hold the upper hand against us now. We’ve already improved a lot, and we could even possibly win against them.”

  “The current chance is fifty-fifty. However, since our opponents hold the upper hand, we should work to tackle their weakness.” After walking a few steps, Yan Zhaoge slowed down his footsteps and finally stopped. He stood on the spot, contemplated for a while, and finally said, “Actually, we could even stir up some troubles first…”

  Xu Fei stopped and looked towards Yan Zhaoge, “But that requires us to locate the Astro Sovereign’s disciple – Senior Chu, right?”

  “Yeah, that’s right.” Yan Zhaoge nodded, “Which is why I said our enemies had the upper hand. We’re lacking in this particular section.”

  “If we can locate Senior Chu’s whereabouts before our opponents make their move, the upper-hand advantage would be neutralized. When that time arrives, the Nine Underworlds wouldn’t be the only side capable of taking the initiative.”

  Yan Zhaoge stroked his palm and sighed.

  “Could Senior Chu have already fallen into the hands of the Nine Underworlds? Could it be, other than the Water Devil coveting for the Astro Sovereign’s physique, why the Water Devil remained quiet was because he was waiting for the Earth Devil to complete his preparations? Is he planning to work together with the Earth Devil?” asked Xu Fei.

  Yan Zhaoge slowly replied, “It’s not impossible.”

  Yan Di and Chen Xuanzong had ventured outside together. Although they had yet to return, communication with them had never been broken off before.

  Of course, to conceal the Awakened Sky Hall location, even if the two sides contact each other, the contents were kept extremely simple and hidden.

  Currently, they were still working hard to locate Chu Lili and Jie Mingkong.

  As of the moment, no great news had been reported. However, they had obtained some notable gains.

  Such rewards made one’s mentality tremble with excitement.

  However, when such a news was being spread around when the two’s relations were about to experience an outburst, people had to remain cautious. They had to be wary of falling into their opponent’s trap.

  “The opposing faction is also planning on expanding their advantages and succeed in one swoop.” Yan Zhaoge laughed.

  Even if Yan Zhaoge and the others could snatch back the upper hand, the possibility of them winning remained at fifty.

  Of course, no matter if it was Yan Zhaoge or Xu Fei, they were individuals filled with heroism. Even if they had some worries in their hearts, their fighting spirits were much higher.

  “Just like how the Grand Master taught us, we should do our best before resorting to fate. Doing everything through your efforts is much more important than relying on fate alone.” Xu Fei’s eyes were glittering.

  Yan Zhaoge also smiled and said, “By doing our best, only would we be able to face our fate calmly. As such, we should do our best and fight against the Nine Underworlds Great Devils that have existed since the dawn of time.”

  The two looked at each other and smiled. They raised their fists, bumped their fists together, and continued striding forward.

  Previously, Xu Fei had mentioned that he had some sect affairs to settle. While some words were indeed inappropriate to mention in front of Shi Jun, he was indeed busy with the sect’s official affairs.

  “Among your peers, barely anyone is capable of shouldering your burdens. There are many matters that you have to take care of by yourself.” Yan Zhaoge sighed.

  Xu Fei smiled and said, “I’m not someone that does everything. If my peer is capable of being independent, I won’t be stingy in giving them authorities and allowing them to do whatever they willed.”

  Among the Broad Creed Mountain’s third-generation outstanding characters, Yan Zhaoge’s condition was special so that he could be excused.

  As for the others, Feng Yunsheng was also considered someone special. However, even if she never entered the Nine Underworlds in the past, she was neither proficient nor interested in handling the sect’s affairs.

  Although Sikong Qing was managing the Martial Inheritance Hall, she had always been passionate about martial arts and held an indifferent attitude towards other matters even until now. Handling the Martial Inheritance Hall was already pushing her to her limits. There was no way for her to be independent or take over Xu Fei’s position to handle the Assignment Hall.

  After passing the assessment, Xia Guang would then inherit the Disciplinary Hall’s first seat position. Although he wasn’t as grumpy as he was during his youth period, his fierce and upright attitude had never changed. As such, he couldn’t handle any sorts of mistakes at all. While there wasn’t any problem in him presiding over the Disciplinary Hall, he wouldn’t be capable of handling the grand scheme of things.

  Most importantly, his reputation within the sect was far inferior compared to Fang Zhun and Xu Fei.

  Of course, with the increment in experience and age, whether Xia Guang would improve was still uncertain.

  However, as of now, among the disciples of his peers, he had already become Xu Fei’s left and right-hand man.

  Whether he was to preside over the sect or to remain independent outside, there wouldn’t be any problems.

  Frankly speaking, while the Disciplinary Hall and the Martial Inheritance Hall’s requirements included the martial art practitioner’s cultivation, it didn’t matter within the Assignment Hall, which included taking care of matters related to the sect’s internal affairs.

  After all, people like Yan Di, Fang Zhun, or Xu Fei, who were well-versed in literary and martial arts, were considered scarce.

  Of course, this included the individual’s age and their ability to cope with unpredictable situations. A perfect balance had to be weighed out.

  For the middle-lower level staff, the Assignment Hall could actively settle their positions. However, in the higher level, especially the Assignment Hall’s first seat position, they still had to be mindful.

  “In the past, junior apprentice-brother Xia had never forgotten about two things. One was to take revenge, while the latter was to find his relatives.” Yan Zhaoge said, “The Three Foot Mountain had been annihilated since long ago, and he already got his revenge. However, he never managed to locate his relatives.”

  Xu Fei nodded, “Although we’ve moved away from the World beyond Worlds, we continued contacting the other sects that remained within the World beyond Worlds and asked them to find his relatives. Yet, nothing worth mentioning had been reported back to us. From t
he looks of it now…”

  He didn’t complete his sentence. Naturally, Yan Zhaoge understood what he implied and let out a sigh.

  “During the past few years, although junior apprentice-brother Xia had never given up, he must’ve already prepared himself mentally and stabilized his emotions.” Xu Fei decided to stop mentioning such a sorrowful matter. He then changed the topic and said, “He possesses the Thunderbolt Blood and is imbued with an extreme amount of yang. If he rashly rushes forward, he would easily come across a bottleneck. As long as he’s able to stabilize his emotions, his improvements would experience a drastic increase.”

  “Although he fell behind his junior apprentice-brother, he’s starting to catch up once again.”

  The junior apprentice-brother that Xu Fei mentioned was naturally Han Long’er – Ying Longtu.

  Now, Han Long’er’s had matured a lot. He wasn’t as naive as he was during his childhood days.

  Yet, his personality was still considered pure and innocent.

  “With the Big Dipper Body, when Han Long’er reaches the Seeing Divinity stage, he wouldn’t slowly train his acupoints one by one. Instead, all thirty-six of his acupoints would see the divinity in one go. Once one of his acupoints succeeded, all thirty-six others would see divinity as well.” Yan Zhaoge smiled and said, “Truly makes one jealous beyond comprehension.”

  History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 1412 - A Load Off the Mind

  Ying Longtu’s Big Dipper Body was also referred to as the Thirty Six Acupoints True Dragon Body, or the Big Dipper Dragon Body.

  His physique at birth resembles that of dragons, and his tranquil thoughts connect with divinities. Not only was his body and vitality vigorous, but his mentality was also extraordinarily sharp. It was a rare Early Heaven physique that contained exceptional mentality and soul. In fact, such exceptionally was even presented unto his perception.

  Although Ying Longtu was a little slow-witted and naive, those were merely under normal circumstances. When learning martial arts, even his perception was extremely outstanding.

  Body Refinement and Martial Scholar level martial art practitioners prioritized refining their vitality during the Inner Aura and Outer Aura stage.

  As a result, Ying Longtu improved speedily in this stage. No one could even compare to him. While others required accumulation time to overcome their hurdles, his Early Heaven advantage allowed him to break through the hurdles in an instant.

  After that, Han Long’er would still be endowed with a unique advantage – his cultivation speed would even far surpass others. Of course, it wouldn’t be as swift as he previously was.

  However, after this, he would welcome another sky-high growth.

  That moment would be when he breaks through the void and finally sees a divinity.

  To the past Ying Longtu and the Broad Creed Mountain, who were still within the Eight Extremities World, such a feat would be deemed unattainable.

  Before this, no martial art practitioner had achieved the Seeing Divinity Martial Saint Realm and ascended to the World beyond Worlds using their capabilities.

  The only exception was the Sacred Sun Clan’s previous clan master – Zhang Chao. Later on, it was proved that the Radiant Light Sect only lacked a few steps before descending to the Eight Extremities World.

  Of course, as time passed, the current Ying Longtu and Broad Creed Mountain weren’t comparable to their past self any longer.

  The former Han Long’er had already ascended to the Martial Saint Realm. Moreover, he broke through the void and managed to attain seeing divinity.

  When his first acupoint realized seeing divinity, all other thirty-six acupoints would realize seeing divinity as well, due to his Big Dipper Body.

  After slightly stabilizing his cultivation, his sturdy foundations enabled him to rush towards the Martial Saint Fifth Level, thus achieving the Mid Seeing Divinity Realm.

  In fact, Ying Longtu had even surpassed Xia Guang and Sikong Qing in terms of speed.

  After this improvement, Ying Longtu’s speed of progress returned to normal. Although he was still faster than average, he held no advantage over Xia Guang and Sikong Qing.

  The higher one’s cultivation was the more time required for a breakthrough to happen. Afterward, Xia Guang and Sikong Qing slowly caught up to him.

  In terms of proficiency in martial arts, other than Yan Zhaoge and Feng Yunsheng, who were considered as anomalies, Han Long’er, Xu Fei, Sikong Qing, and Xia Guang were all regarded as the Broad Creed Mountain’s third generation disciples’ leading figure. In the Sky beyond Skies, they were referred to as the East Mountain’s Four Prodigies.

  When comparing their age with their current cultivation, they would be deemed extremely young individuals in possession of high potential and a bright future.

  Of course, compared to Feng Yunsheng and Sikong Qing, Han Long’er was even more inefficient when handling the sect’s internal affairs.

  “There are some decent individuals among the fourth generation disciples. You ought to develop them at a young age, senior apprentice-brother Xu.” Yan Zhaoge smiled and said, “Little Jun’s attitude resembles junior apprentice-brother Xia more. Currently, while he’s capable of managing himself, he requires more training if he were to shoulder the sect’s responsibility.”

  Xu Fei also laughed along, “Indeed, there are quite a number of outstanding youth.”

  Even within the World beyond Worlds, the Broad Creed Mountain already possessed sufficient charisma, which managed to attract all sorts of outstanding talents.

  Now that the Broad Creed Mountain was in the Sky beyond Skies, they wouldn’t have to worry about their source of talents anymore. They had to be stricter than usual.

  As the two continued their journey, Xu Fei’s disciple came to report his wife’s arrival.

  Xu Fei’s wife was the Eight Extremities World’s Turbid Wave Pavilion’s successor – Xie Youchan.

  She was also familiar with Yan Zhaoge in the past.

  Xie Youchan was an independent woman. Albeit having a soft front, she was an iron fist in a velvet glove.

  After Broad Creed Mountain gained a foothold in World beyond Worlds’ Southeastern Yang Heaven Territory’s Royal Reed Sea, they started leading their successors towards the World beyond Worlds.

  Compared to the lower realms like the Eight Extremities World or the Vast Ocean World, martial art practitioners would undoubtedly enjoy much higher benefits.

  Xu Fei and Shi Jun had also went towards the World beyond Worlds.

  After the Broad Creed Mountain’s situation was secured within the World beyond Worlds, Xu Fei returned to the Eight Extremities Worlds to meet up with Xie Youchan once again.

  However, Xie Youchan hoped to break through the Seeing Divinity Level and ascend to the World beyond Worlds with her capabilities, instead of relying on Xu Fei.

  Later, after the World beyond Worlds was separated, the Eight Extremities Worlds and various other lower realms were brought along as well.

  At that time, the Broad Creed Mountain’s weight within the Eight Extremities Worlds became completely different.

  Even if the Broad Creed Mountain’s ancestral property remained by the Eight Extremities Worlds, even if they allowed other sects to co-exist together within the Eight Extremities Worlds, the way the Turbid Wave Pavilion, the Jade Sea City, and the Infinite Boundless Mountain viewed their neighbor had changed entirely.

  Even when the Broad Creed Mountain established their sect in the World beyond Worlds and even took over the Eastern Vast Heaven Territory to go against the Kunlun Mountain, the shock brought about to the Eight Extremities Worlds wasn’t that severe.

  From a certain point of view, the way the current Turbid Wave Pavillion and other sects view the Broad Creed Mountain resembled how the mortal realm looked up to the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm before the Great Calamity.

  With this, the way the Turbid Wave Pavillion and other sect’s disciples’ state of mind would naturally cha
nge.

  When the two were in a different position, the way they considered a problem would naturally change as well.

  Similarly, Xie Youchan didn’t have to persist any longer. She never hoped to obtain anything from Xu Fei, nor did she have to tend the treads of relationship for the Turbid Wave Pavillion any longer. As her background started to lose its position to a certain degree, everything else didn’t matter anymore. After all, the matter only involved her now.

  At such a moment, loving each other was much more critical.

  A warm smile appeared on Xu Fei’s face, “She came out of seclusion? Judging by the time, she should be coming out around this time.”

  Currently, his position and cultivation were sufficient for him to establish his own dao arena.

  However, as he was still handling the sect’s affairs, Xi Fei had remained by the Broad Creed Mountain most of the time. Of course, his original residence was preserved as well.

  Just like Xue Chuqing, Xie Youchan wasn’t a Broad Creed successor after all. Usually, she would remain by Xu Fei’s dao arena to cultivate peacefully. After exiting seclusion, she would reunite with Xu Fei for a few days.

  “It’s not like you’re chasing a deadline. Just go ahead and have a nice talk with her.” Yan Zhaoge smiled and said, “I won’t be pestering you two for now. I’ll come and visit next time.”

  Xu Fei laughed and shook his head, “We’re both of old age already. You’re exaggerating things.”

  The two continued walking forward and separated from each other later on. Yan Zhaoge went ahead to greet Yu Ye, while Xu Fei went to the Assignment Hall to settle some matters on hand with the intent of returning to his residence earlier.

  Within the residence, a woman was drinking tea alone.

  The woman had a tall figure, and her facial structure merely had an above-average score. However, she had an aura of heartiness around her.

  She was Xie Youchan.

  “Seems like your results this time are quite decent.” Xu Fei smiled while walking to her side. Xie Youchan then poured some tea into the teacup prepared beforehand.
