Hongguang Immortal Sovereign stared at Li Yun in shock.
He could sense that when Li Yun spoke those words, he radiated an immense confidence.
There was not the slightest trace of forced bravado in that confidence.
That confidence came from strength.
Clearly, Li Yun possessed unparalleled faith in his own power.
"Could it be... that during those ten years in the Chaotic Void, he truly obtained some tremendous opportunity, allowing his strength to reach the peak of the Immortal Sovereign realm as well?"
Hongguang Immortal Sovereign found it utterly unbelievable.
Nor could he quite believe it.
He himself had advanced to the Immortal Sovereign realm countless years ago and had visited the Chaotic Void more than a few times, yet even now he had only barely reached the rank of Seventh Grade Immortal Sovereign.
As for Li Yun, he had seen it clearly.
Ten years ago, Li Yun had only barely attained Immortal Sovereign-level combat power. The reason he had been able to fight above his level and defeat Hurricane Immortal Sovereign was entirely because he had struck first, shattering Hurricane Immortal Sovereign's defensive immortal armor and injuring him.
In a mere ten years.
For Li Yun to rise from the level of barely possessing Immortal Sovereign-level combat power to the peak of the Immortal Sovereign realm was far too impossible.
Under normal circumstances, such a thing simply could not happen.
But no matter how unwilling he was to believe it, there was nothing he could do.
He had already taken the initiative to beg to join Li Yun's ranks. How could he possibly withdraw and leave now?
What if Li Yun thought he had been toying with him and, in a fit of rage, suppressed and killed him? Wouldn't that be the end of him?
