"Shen Xiu, you finally came." The young man spoke.
Shen Xiu raised his head and looked at the young man, momentarily stunned. Then he smiled. "I never expected you to be waiting for me here. I thought you would be atop Heavenly Mountain Snow Peak."
"Heavenly Mountain Snow Peak is not somewhere you can go. I've been waiting for you for a month." The young man spoke indifferently, with a trace of displeasure in his tone.
"A month?" Shen Xiu was somewhat surprised, but soon understood. After all, he himself had spent a month in the Royal City. That was no short amount of time, and the fact that this young man had waited for him for an entire month left Shen Xiu rather shaken.
Shen Xiu swept his gaze over the young man before him and discovered that his cultivation had reached the ninth level of Qi Refining, and it was no weak ninth level at that.
Shen Xiu's cultivation was only at the seventh level of Body Tempering. Compared to the young man before him, the gap was simply far too great.
However, Shen Xiu did not give up. He believed that so long as he was given sufficient opportunities, he would definitely be able to catch up to this young man. By then, he might even be able to kill him in return.
"Enough nonsense. Since you're here, let's make a trip to Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect." The young man looked at Shen Xiu and spoke blandly.
Shen Xiu nodded.
Then, Shen Xiu followed the young man toward the mountain gate of Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect.
Along the way, Shen Xiu continually observed the surrounding scenery. Heavenly Mountain Sword Sect truly was extraordinary. The entire mountain peak was like a sharp blade, piercing the heavens.
All around
