Chapter 354: Chapter 229 Are You Having an Affair!_3

Nearly choked to death by Jiang Feng’s blunt words.

Looking at Jiang Feng’s innocent yet earnest face, she suddenly realized that they were not on the same level; he saw things very differently from her and had the right to speak such words.

Both she and Lu Luo started cultivating from a young age, and after over twenty years of arduous practice, they had only reached the Core Formation Stage, and that was largely due to the tremendous opportunity provided by Liu Tangxi. Even so, breaking through Core Formation to condense a Nascent Soul would likely take them several more decades.

The path of cultivation became increasingly challenging the further one went—from Top-grade Core Formation to Nascent Soul, she might actually need nearly a decade, and as for reaching Divinity Transformation, that would take at least a century to consider.

And that’s only if your comprehension and talent are sufficient; otherwise, you could spend your whole life without any hope of progressing. So for them, advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage and becoming a pillar of the community was already a dream.

To step into the Divinity Transformation Stage and seek revenge to revive their family’s glory was quite literally a dream; the two sisters only dared to think so in their sleep.

But Jiang Feng was different.

For Jiang Feng, reaching Divinity Transformation was merely a small step on his long journey on the Immortal Path.

It might sound a bit exaggerated, and even somewhat pretentious, but it was the truth. Starting from scratch, in just two years, he made progress that matched their sisters’ twenty years of effort, and his strength was even a level ahead.

When she heard that Jiang Feng had been gravely injured on his recent journey, due to a life-and-death battle with a Nascent Soul Stage demon cultivator, even executing his opponent on the spot, her mind went blank—she simply couldn’t believe her ears.

With Jiang Feng’s talent and capabilities, she had no doubt that within five years, Young Master Jiang would definitely condense a Nascent Soul. A goal that would take them hundreds of years or perhaps even a lifetime to achieve seemed like it might only take him about a decade.

He truly had the right to question.

"Um, Young Master Jiang, not all forces are as strong as our Purple Cloud Palace. We are... considered one of the top three major sects in the entire Central Plains, claiming to be the first is not an exaggeration."

She answered with a wry smile, truly understanding the phrase ’the rich never understand the poor’, feeling awkward and wanting to scratch her head, but then he realized he was currently incapacitated and couldn’t even lift his arm.

As if seeing Jiang Feng’s embarrassment, Su Yi gently reached out and scratched Jiang Feng’s head with a smile. After spending day and night together for two years, she knew this young fellow all too well.

"In our Demon Race territory, there are many humans. You might think that the entire Demon Race consists of various demon beasts and animals, but in fact, the opposite is true. Those with noble status and positions within the Demon Race territory are all human, or rather, they are demons who have undergone Transformation.

"Especially someone like you, Young Master, with a handsome appearance and strength, walking in the streets of the Demon Race cities would be dazzling, attracting countless women’s hearts. The golden-haired bonze you encountered this time didn’t have a pure bloodline."

"I heard Mr. Yan mention that despite having condensed a Nascent Soul, he still isn’t fully humanoid, and I also heard from him that Lu Luo was quite harsh with her words, full of mockery about lineage, to the extent that even he couldn’t bear to listen."

With a sly grin.

This rascal Yan Fengchun didn’t focus on important matters but remembered the low-quality insult and brought it up. Seeing Jiang Feng smile so happily, her beautiful eyes couldn’t help but narrow into crescents as she patiently explained.

"Within the Demon Race territory, only those with pure bloodlines and strong cultivation can fully transform into human form. According to legend, when the first deity appeared in the world, it was in human form. For all creatures, the ultimate goal and result of their cultivation is to become human."

"Having spent some time with Lu Luo, you should have felt that aside from the demon aura cultivated, she is no different from ordinary people in other aspects. This is a testament to the excellence of her bloodline. Even if she were to walk down the streets of the Demon Race, people would probably trip over themselves to flatter her."

"That’s why such direct descendants are naturally taken care of by the Clan Leader Xin Yue. Moreover, since Xin Yue looked after her for a while when she was young, although they are not mother and daughter, she is considered her own child to some extent..."

Hearing this, Jiang Feng’s expression immediately became peculiar.

"No wonder you said you were sorry to me, apologizing the moment you came in. So it’s not that you were sneaking around with an outside man but because you told your Clan Leader about this, huh?"
