Chapter 1039 Heavenly Sun Top Three (1/2)
In a short few days, news of the double tower battle for the mystical creatures had spread throughout Hunyuan Heaven.
The outcome of the duel between the two supreme sovereigns left countless people sighing in amazement.
It was also at this time that the preliminary list for the Tianyuan Region’s five Heavenly Sun participants was spread, causing quite a commotion.
The source of the commotion was, of course, an all too familiar name on the list: Zhou Yuan.
...
The Xuanji Region, in a tall building.
Dressed in a wide robe and with a piece of gauze veiling her face, Jiu Gong read the report before her and sighed deeply. “Tch tch, Zhou Yuan really knows how to stir things up. Barely any time has passed since he advanced to the Heavenly Sun stage, and he already dares to lock horns with the advanced Heavenly Sun experts…”
The report contained information about the upcoming mystical creature contest between the Tianyuan Region and the Great Five Alliance. The Tianyuan Region participant list was naturally included, and Zhou Yuan’s name was exceptionally striking.
The servant girl beside Jiu Gong remarked, “Zhou Yuan really doesn’t understand the immensity of the heavens.”
However, Jiu Gong shook her head. She might have had the same view if the name was anyone else’s, but after experiencing the nine regions tournament, she now categorized Zhou Yuan as an extremely dangerous individual. After all, even the invincible Zhao Mushen had fallen to him. Zhou Yuan was basically a monster.
“It’s difficult to make a prediction. Who knows what kind of surprises there will be in this contest.” She slightly puckered her red lips as she tapped the report with her slender finger. “I’m looking forward to it somewhat.”
She also wanted to know if the emperor of their Divine Dwelling generation would still be as dazzling after stepping into the deeper waters—the Heavenly Sun stage.
...
The Wanzu Region, in front of a palace hall.
Zhao Mushen indifferently read the report in his hand. His gaze paused on Zhou Yuan’s name for a long time.
A raspy voice sounded from behind him, containing a strange sound that made one’s Spirit feel a slight piercing pain, “Hehe, he’s much bolder than you. How long has it been since he advanced to the Heavenly Sun stage? To think that he dares to cross hands with advanced Heavenly Sun experts already...”
Zhao Mushen turned his head and saw a man in gaudy clothes. The man was handsome, and he had a pair of eyes that resembled peach blossoms. His clothes were extremely extravagant, and he gave off an irresponsible aura.
He was called Wang Xuanyang. He was once the leader of the Wanzu Region’s Divine Dwelling experts and was now the main pillar of the Wanzu Region’s Heavenly Sun stage. As for the Heavenly Sun List, he ranked second.
Wang Xuanyang smiled and said, “The Great Five Alliance is so useless. They can’t even handle such a weak Tianyuan Region. What a waste of our Wanzu Region’s support.”
Zhao Mushen did not respond, his expression remaining indifferent.
Not minding the lack of response, Wang Xuanyang continued to talk to himself. Soon after, his tone suddenly changed. “You didn’t take Wu Yao and Su Youwei in the nine regions tournament?”
Zhao Mushen glanced at him and coldly said, “Senior brother Xuanyang, I have no interest in them. I only desire their luck and blessing.”
He was well aware of his senior brother’s character. Wang Xuanyang loved beautiful women, and his Genesis Qi leaned towards the yin and yang nature. Several girls had already been destroyed in his hands over the years.
Wang Xuanyang glanced at Zhao Mushen as if looking at an irrational fool. Soon after, Wang Xuanyang smiled. “Since you failed, don’t ask me to give them to you when I get them in the future.”
Zhao Mushen replied, “Senior brother Xuanyuan, Wu Yao and Su Youwei are not to be trifled with.”
A peach blossom fan appeared in Wang Xuanyuan’s hand. Yin-yang light flowed along it as it unfolded, revealing pictures of numerous beautiful girls in various postures. There were two empty spaces at the very center of the fan.
“It just so happens that there are still two empty spaces in my yin-yang peach blossom fan. If I manage to collect them...hehe, there’ll be hope to reach the Nascent Source stage in the future. As for whether or not they’re to be trifled with, that’s your senior brother’s business. Junior brother Zhao, you should spend your time thinking about how to retrieve your lost dignity from Zhou Yuan. After all, your defeat in the nine regions tournament has made our Wanzu Region suffer some backlash.”
He completely ignored Zhao Mushen’s words, slowly fanning himself as he unhurriedly left.
Expressionless, Zhao Mushen watched his senior brother leave as a glimmer of iciness flashed in the depths of his eyes. He inwardly muttered to himself, I will naturally take back what I lost. Moreover...your position shall be mine in the future—no, I will not be number two like you, but number one on the Heavenly Sun List!
...
The Zixiao Region, in an enormous mountain valley.
The valley was verdant with life. A waterfall crashed down from above, creating a loud rumbling that echoed throughout the valley.
A beautiful figure was seated on a boulder overseeing the valley. It was a girl wearing a white dress. A heart-palpitating chill spread around her, and her expression appeared exceptionally cold, making her look very unapproachable.
She was currently looking at the valley in admiration. On a stone platform within the waterfall, she could just barely make out a slender figure silently sitting in a cultivation position.
The girl in white murmured in a soft voice, “Junior sister Youwei’s talent is exceptional. Her accomplishments will one day surpass mine. Oh?”
Her expression suddenly changed while she was watching Su Youwei train. Moments later, she saw a young female disciple rush towards the valley.
The girl in the white dress moved and appeared in front of the female disciple. “What is it?”
The female disciple was taken aback. She hurriedly bowed and said, “Greetings, teacher-aunt Dong Ye!”
The girl in white was called Dong Ye. She was a famous individual not only in the Zixiao Region but also in Hunyuan Heaven, because she was ranked three on the Heavenly Sun List!
“What’s the matter?” Ye Dong nodded in acknowledgment. Her tone remained icy-cold.
The female disciple hesitated for a moment. Her teacher-aunt Dong Ye was known to have a bad temper, and she was very against the opposite sex. However, the disciple did not dare to conceal anything. “I have news to pass to my senior sister Youwei. She asked us to immediately deliver any new information about the Tianyuan Region’s Zhou Yuan.”
“Tianyuan Region, Zhou Yuan?” Dong Ye’s brows immediately furrowed at these words as an unhappy look appeared on her face.
