Heavenly Spirit Realm.
Cloud Phoenix Palace.
Lu Changsheng sat at the round table.
On the round table, there was a fragrant and delicious fish soup.
Why is Lu Changsheng here?
Naturally, she craved Hong Ying's fish soup.
Inside the Cottage.
The soup made with Hong Ying is absolutely delicious.
Therefore, every time I cook, the soup is made by Hong Ying...
Hong Ying watched Lu Changsheng slowly sip his soup and said with a smile, "Master, my cooking skills haven't deteriorated, have they?"
If outsiders were to see the Empress of the Cloud Phoenix Empire, who rules the Heavenly Spirit Realm, wearing a simple apron, smiling at a man, and even cooking soup for him...
You'll probably be shocked...
However, the Imperial Advisor and the Nine Heavens Division members standing to the side were already used to it...
Only in front of this man, whose strength was beyond words.
That is, Hong Ying's master.
Only their king would show such an expression.
That's how you become like a little girl...
Upon hearing Hong Ying's question...
Lu Changsheng pursed his lips and said, "My skills have declined slightly. I added too many spices, which masked the natural flavor of the fish."
Even when you're cultivating your skills or managing state affairs, don't forget to practice cooking!
Imperial Advisor:...
Nine Heavens Division:...
I'm already being kind by making you soup, why are you making so many demands?
However, their empress didn't complain at all. Instead, she smiled and said, "Okay, I understand. I will practice every day from now on."
Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng nodded vigorously. "This child is teachable."
And so.
The Imperial Advisor and the Nine Heavens Division were even more speechless...
At this moment.
Hong Ying said, "By the way, I heard that Master has taken on a new disciple?"
This news was naturally given to him by his senior brother, Ye Qiubai.
Although they are far apart.
It has crossed countless boundaries.
However, there was still information exchange between the fellow disciples.
This is also thanks to the sound-transmitting jade pendant made by Lu Changsheng.
It seems that spatial distance can be ignored.
To transmit information over wireless distances.
After taking a sip of soup, Lu Changsheng smiled and nodded, saying, "Your new junior brother is much better than you all."
Hong Ying asked with a smile, "Oh? How is it so powerful that it has earned such praise from Master?"
There were five of them, fellow disciples.
But Lu Changsheng rarely praised them.
Such undisguised praise for someone.
This is the first time.
Lu Changsheng explained, "Your new junior brother has truly grasped the essence of cultivation!"
"Know what you can and cannot do."
Even when it comes to doing something, we are extremely cautious!
"Besides, his ability to remove traces is top-notch! I didn't even need to teach him these things!"
"On the contrary..."
Lu Changsheng glanced at Hong Ying with disdain and said, "Look at you two, I can't teach you no matter how I try!"
Hong Ying smiled bitterly.
It seems he's a junior brother whose personality is very similar to his master's.
However...
"But?"
"What I appreciate most about your new junior brother is his ability to conceal his true strength."
Hong Ying became interested and said with an "Oh," "So, this junior brother's true cultivation level is actually quite high?"
I don't know if it's tall or not.
Lu Changsheng smiled and said, "Even when facing me, he still didn't reveal his true cultivation level. He used many methods to conceal his true strength."
"Look at him, he should learn from his junior brother!"
So it is said that...
Hong Ying was genuinely interested in meeting this new junior brother.
After finishing the matter in the Heavenly Spirit Realm.
Hong Ying then entrusted the affairs of the Cloud Phoenix Empire to the Imperial Advisor.
You can then venture into the Boundless Realm on your own.
At the same time.
Boundless Realm.
Within the Boundary Mountain.
The evil general was slightly out of breath, and his originally black pupils were now filled with furious red!
Looking at Mu Fusheng before him, he asked, "Why do you still possess an escape talisman?"
Mu Fusheng shrugged and said, "I don't recall saying I'd run out of escape talismans, did I?"
Evil General:...
That seems to be correct.
Why didn't you just use it directly?
This human is so cunning!
Suddenly.
Xie Jiang calmed down and thought about what Mu Fusheng had done before.
Looking back on all his previous actions.
The evil general understood, and looked at Mu Fusheng coldly, saying, "Insect, you think you can hold me back?"
Mu Fusheng smiled but remained silent.
He should have noticed by now, after all this time.
If they can't even detect this...
They wouldn't deserve to be in their current position.
"But do you think that by holding me back, they can win?"
"You're underestimating our Evil Race."
Mu Fusheng laughed and said, "What they do over there is none of my business. What I need to care about is you."
"Heh, you think you can take that?"
The Evil Race sneered, "We'll deal with you later."
After saying that, Xie Jiang came to his senses and prepared to return to where Mu Qingqing and the others were!
But.
This moment.
Behind the evil general, an overwhelming aura spread throughout the Boundary Mountain!
Sensing this aura, the evil general suddenly turned around.
An expression of disbelief crossed his eyes!
This aura belongs to someone at the Early-Stage Spirit Division Realm among humans!
And the one emanating this aura was none other than...
There was no one else around!
It was Mu Fusheng!
The evil general narrowed his eyes, looking at the smiling Mu Fusheng, and said, "You've been hiding your cultivation level?"
Mu Fusheng said, "Who says you can't hide your cultivation level?"
"However, with my current level of cultivation, I should still be able to hold you off, right?"
Previously, their cultivation level was not revealed.
It's because even if he revealed his strength at the Early-Stage Spirit Division Realm.
They were no match for this Extraterrestrial Evil Race.
It should be noted that a demon general-level Evil Race is stronger than an ordinary Late-Stage Spirit Division Realm expert.
This revealed that he was at the Early-Stage Spirit Division Realm.
They could only barely put up a fight.
Once you reach the Spirit Division Realm, even crossing a minor realm becomes extremely difficult!
What's more, there are several?
so.
They used tactics to stall for so long.
Now, by displaying the strength of the Early-Stage Spirit Division Realm, they continue to delay.
This is the only way to maximize the time spent delaying!
That's where you can perform much better!
The evil general remained noncommittal.
This cunning human, even at the Late-Stage Emperor Realm, was able to hold him off for so long.
Moreover, he has already displayed the strength of the Early-Stage Spirit Division Realm.
"But even if you manage to hold me back, what can you do?"
"Most of the Spirit Division Realm over there are in the middle stage."
"At the same time, one person is missing."
"With such a disparity in strength, how can we possibly fight?"
Mu Fusheng disappeared from the spot.
The next moment, he appeared before the Evil Race and threw a punch!
"I told you, that's none of my business. My job is to stall you."
The evil general sneered, "Finally, you're not relying on external forces anymore? But without external forces, how will you defend against my attacks!"
After speaking, he threw a punch as well!
But at this very moment...
Mu Fusheng's lips curled slightly.
The fist opened instantly!
Turn your fist into a palm!
And in the palm of his hand, there was a rune crackling with lightning...
