Watching the two leave, Luo Jun frowned slightly.
With his exceptional hearing, he had caught every word of their conversation. If nothing unexpected happened, they had come to collect fragments of the Elemental Gemstone and the Saliva of the Three-Headed Giant Dog. The one who had sent them was Grand President Wan Guiyuan of the Yuan Cultivation Society.
But Luo Jun truly could not guess what Wan Guiyuan wanted those two items for. Even if history was correcting itself, it still had to make logical sense, didn't it? Yet beyond that, there was another piece of key information!
Ling Xin had reached the Peak?!
Although Ling Xin had always been considered the strongest below the Peak, to be honest, Luo Jun felt that she had benefited greatly from the Demon-Breaking Golden Edge. That ability was simply too domineering in battle, allowing her to defeat many Cultivators whose foundations were steadier and cultivation deeper than hers. But purely in terms of realm, even with good luck, Ling Xin would need a short time to complete the seventh levels of both Body Refinement and Foundation Establishment. Just reaching perfection in the Heart Refining Realm would probably take several more years, and opportunities to break through to the Peak were rare to begin with. Luo Jun had estimated that, under the most optimistic circumstances, she could reach the Peak at twenty-five!
If she truly achieved that, she would absolutely be first-rate even among Peak Experts, only somewhat inferior to a freakishly gifted talent like Ling Yao.
But from what those two had said, Ling Xin was already at the Peak? She was not even twenty... Well, calculating from her birthday, Ling Xin seemed to be a few months younger than him. She should not even be nineteen yet!
A Peak Expert at eighteen...
