King of Assassins
Chapter 582 - 456 Is It Necessary?_2
If he were to become a Nascent Soul in one fell swoop, wouldn't that be awesome? Jiang Lan would have to kneel at his feet immediately. But he couldn't bear to let Jiang Lan kneel. However, there are a few women in the Cloud Mist Sect who are not bad; they could all come together to cultivate the Yin-Yang Dao.
Thinking of the pleasant scene, Shen Ming couldn't help but smile.
Jiang Lan didn't know why Shen Ming was grinning foolishly; she had no interest in focusing on Shen Ming at this time.
She couldn't help but wonder again, with such a good situation, why was Gao Xuan so impulsive? This wasn't like the Gao Xuan she knew.
During the battle against the Snake Demon, Gao Xuan had shown meticulous and profound thinking, which had left a deep impression on her.
Jiang Lan felt that Gao Xuan must have had his calculations, but figures like Feng Xian were significant, and it wasn't her place to speak.
With their vast experience, Feng Xian and the others could see that Jiang Lan had other thoughts. Feng Xian then smiled and asked, "Jiang Lan, what are your thoughts? Speak freely."
Jiang Lan carefully looked at Yun Qingxia, and only after receiving a nod of approval from the Sect Leader did she muster the courage to say, "The Gao Xuan I know does things very skillfully and with a deep mind. Perhaps he's doing this for another purpose."
"You don't understand, do you? Young people might be cautious, but when he gains extraordinary power, he will surely become arrogant..."
Yuan Tong was a bit displeased and cut her off before Jiang Lan could finish.
Jiang Lan remained silent. She understood that it was this group of older cultivators who couldn't accept a young person like Gao Xuan rising so suddenly. They would try their best to trample Gao Xuan and belittle him to balance their own hearts.
As for what Gao Xuan truly was like, that didn't matter to them.
Gui Jiu greatly agreed with Yuan Tong's words: "That's right, young people are just ignorant of the vastness of the heavens and earth, achieving a bit will make them swell. We were the same when we were young."
Feng Xian clapped his hands and laughed heartily: "Exactly. If it were us, we might have been even more arrogant than Gao Xuan. Unfortunately, this boy is too impulsive. If he had more patience and waited until after Li Buyi and Wang Haichan's showdown to emerge, it would have been entirely different!"
By that time, even if Li Buyi won, he would certainly lose most of his combat power. If Gao Xuan then emerged out of nowhere, Li Buyi might have to flee at the mere sight of him.
But now, Gao Xuan just appeared, harshly slapped Wang Haichan's face, and openly declared he would annihilate the Xuanzhen Sect, utterly arrogant to the point of being mindless.
Even Yun Qingxia nodded this time, agreeing that Feng Xian's words made sense, that only in this way could they grasp the situation.
The Sect Leaders had to discuss, and it was even more lively for the other spectators to comment.
However, the majority shared one view: Gao Xuan is just young and ignorant, overly arrogant and cocky, and this time he will undoubtedly be taught a lesson.
At this moment, Li Buyi spoke again: "Gao Xuan, even if you are a disciple of the Five Elements Sect, on what grounds do you boast so arrogantly? Just because of those two Nascent Souls by your side?"
Gao Xuan didn't react much, but the crowd of onlookers couldn't remain calm.
Feng Xian's expression changed, staring intently at Shui Qingbo and Yuanbao on the Water Mirror.
Shui Qingbo still maintained some composure and beautiful intelligence, but Yuanbao was completely like a lively girl, her eyes sparkling, standing beside Gao Xuan, looking left and right, like a curious child seeing everything for the first time.
Are these two girls both Nascent Souls?
Feng Xian's eyes were about to pop out; he couldn't believe it. As a top Golden Core, he knew how difficult it was to break the Core and become a Nascent Soul.
Blasting the Golden Core is easy, but trying to reorganize into a Nascent Soul is a thousand times harder. Which one of these Golden Cores present wasn't eagerly eyeing the Nascent Soul Realm, yet unable to break through?
Granted, Gao Xuan having a fortuitous encounter to achieve Nascent Soul might be understandable, but how did he have two girls become Nascent Souls too?
When did Nascent Souls become as common as cabbages?
Feng Xian couldn't describe his feelings, only three words in his mind: Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Not only Feng Xian, but the other Sect Leaders also looked as if they had seen a ghost. No, even if they saw a real ghost, they wouldn't be this shocked.
After all, the Celestial Ghost Sect are experts in playing with ghosts.
Jiang Lan, on the other hand, didn't feel as deeply; she even had the mind to sneakily observe the expressions of several Sect Leaders.
She sneered inwardly, seeing how big they talked, yet they were the same! When faced with significant matters, they were all scared to the point of being pale...
In Jiang Lan's view, since Gao Xuan had become a Nascent Soul, the two girls following him becoming Nascent Souls was only natural. It wasn't something to be too surprised about.
Most other cultivators felt the same way. Instead, those with higher cultivation could better understand what two more Nascent Soul True Monarchs signified!
When everyone snapped back to reality, their gaze at Gao Xuan and the other two was no longer the same. These were three Nascent Soul True Monarchs!
Though they might not be able to destroy the Xuanzhen Sect, which other sect could stop these few?
At this moment, Wang Haichan showed a cold smile. If he hadn't noticed that these two girls were also Nascent Souls, how could he have held back against Gao Xuan and not even questioned?
At this point, he felt a bit of glee, with Gao Xuan stepping in, saving him from making a move. Despite the strength of the Xuanzhen Sect, even they would have trouble against these three.
However, Wang Haichan was equally unoptimistic about Gao Xuan and his group. The three were too young. The Xuanzhen Sect must have a Divine Artifact protecting the sect. Even if it displayed one or two percent of its power, it wouldn't be something a few inexperienced Nascent Souls could break!
One wrong move, and Gao Xuan and his companions might fall at Xuanzhen Mountain!
Regardless, he could watch from the sidelines. If the Xuanzhen Sect had issues, he could add insult to injury and give the Xuanzhen Sect a hard time.
While Wang Haichan was contemplating, he heard Gao Xuan say, "These two junior sisters of mine have shallow cultivation, are young, and kind-hearted. Such rough work like annihilating a sect, I can handle it alone."
Li Buyi sneered inwardly, the boy opposite was truly arrogantly boundless.
