They couldn't even last a single exchange?
Were Chi Jiuyu and that tea seller really that weak?
The thought flashed through Zhao Ruohan's mind, only for her to reject it herself a moment later.
Impossible!
She didn't know about that tea seller, but Chi Jiuyu was absolutely not weak.
The two of them had fought not long ago!
Without using their innate divine abilities, Zhao Ruohan had even been slightly inferior.
Then there was only one possibility...
"So my father... had been going easy on me all along?"
You finally figured it out!
"Yeah, yeah! When I went to bring Martial Uncle out of seclusion before, I fought him at the same realm too. I couldn't even withstand a single sword strike!"
Since she had already admitted to being instantly defeated in one exchange, there was nothing she couldn't say about failing to withstand one sword strike.
"..." Zhao Ruohan fell silent for two seconds. "Is he really... that powerful?"
At the same realm, he defeated Chi Jiuyu with a single sword...
"Of course it's true. Do I look like the kind of person who lies whenever she feels like it?"
"..."
Indeed, given Chi Jiuyu's personality, she would not lie about something like this merely for the sake of face.
"But why?"
If things were truly as they said, then the gap was simply too outrageous.
Whether it was Zhao Ruohan, Chi Jiuyu, or that tea seller, all of them were among the most gifted, and the inheritances they cultivated were all of the supreme grade.
Whether cultivation techniques and scriptures or divine abilities and methods, they had been improved generation after generation and continually optimized. By all reason, they should far surpass those of the past.
Even if there were differences, they should not have been so vast
