"What? Pang Yi really broke through?" Chao Jue cried out in shock.
"Hmph, the Ten Thousand Demons Hall is far better informed than your Heavenly Demon Hall. What's so surprising about Pang Yi reaching the ninth stage? Without that level of internal power, how could he leave both of us utterly outmatched?" Lou Feishang said.
Lou Feishang wanted nothing more than to cleave Chao Jue to death with a single saber stroke. He was still raising doubts at a time like this-couldn't he see the threat the young man opposite them posed to them both?
If they couldn't capture his attention, he would probably attack right away.
"The ninth stage?" Huang Xiao murmured.
"Do you think Pang Yi's ninth stage is so ordinary?" Lou Feishang said. "Although Pang Yi hasn't mastered the ninth stage to completion yet, he's already begun trying to refine his true qi. How could an ordinary ninth-stage practitioner compare to that power? And while you do indeed have ninth-stage internal power, your Heavenly Demon True Qi hasn't been refined. There's absolutely no way you could be Pang Yi's match."
"Oh? Is that so?" Huang Xiao asked, raising an eyebrow.
Huang Xiao had his own assessment of Lou Feishang's words.
He knew Lou Feishang was trying to buy time, but he didn't particularly mind. If he could learn something about Pang Yi, he wanted to hear it, even if some of it might be untrue.
Still, Huang Xiao felt that what Lou Feishang had just said was probably credible.
Even without Lou Feishang saying so, Huang Xiao had already suspected that Pang Yi possessed ninth-stage internal power. Otherwise, he couldn't possibly have left both Chao Jue and Lou Feishang utterly outmatched.
Now, judging by Lou Feishang's words, Pang Yi probably hadn't mastered the ninth stage to completion
