"Sword Immortal Lu!"
"Lu Qingfeng is here too."
The cultivation masters immediately recognized the man in the long black robe, and surprise stirred among them.
What surprised them was-
Why had Sword Immortal Lu taken so long to arrive?
And how did he dare make such an arrogant declaration as, "Now that you're here, you won't be leaving"?
Lu Qingfeng, the peerless sword immortal of the Infinite Heaven lineage, had been renowned throughout the world for centuries. He had achieved the Five-Pass Breakthrough in just sixty years-a breathtaking genius rarely seen in a millennium. Yet Sword Immortal Lu seemed uncertain of surviving his tribulation and ascending, and over the years, he had gradually faded from public view.
But mortal-world inheritances only reached as far as the Five-Pass Breakthrough. Without guidance from an Upper Realm inheritance, what was the point of remaining in the mortal world?
However powerful Sword Immortal Lu was, he was still only an Earthly Immortal at the pinnacle of the mortal world. Even killing top-tier Outer Demons such as Taotie and Kui Ox would be difficult for him. The gulf between him and a Demonic Fiend of the Outer Path like the Fortune-Teller was greater still. How could he dare make such a reckless claim?
For a moment, neither the masters of the Fifth Heavenly Pass nor the Earthly Immortals who had achieved the Five-Pass Breakthrough could understand.
Unless... Sword Immortal Lu also had a calligraphy scroll like that?
"Lu Qingfeng?"
Xiao Sui gazed at Lu Qingfeng from afar, her brow furrowing slightly.
She had sent Lu Qingfeng a Voice Transmission Talisman long ago. Given the speed at which a peerless sword immortal could fly on his sword, he should have arrived quickly as long as he was within the country. Why had he only appeared now?
