Chapter 526: Chapter 374: Who Are the Top Three?

Immediately following, another ranking emerged on the Qingyun List.

Name: Can Rong

Affiliated Force: Secret Forces

Rank: Six

...

Name: Xia Feng

Affiliated Force: Myriad Realms Epoch

Rank: Five

Two rankings were announced in succession.

"Can Rong, it’s not surprising that someone from the Secret Forces made it into the top ten, but Xia Feng only fifth? Isn’t that a bit of a joke?"

"Right, wasn’t Xia Feng unbeaten during the era of the Saint Emperor, except for being suppressed by the Liquor Sword Immortal? Why only fifth?"

The people from All Heavens were abuzz with discussion.

They didn’t pay much attention to Can Rong.

But Xia Feng’s ranking truly caught them by surprise.

After all, they were still hoping Xia Feng would win first place in the Saint King’s List.

Being fifth was indeed disappointing and left many puzzled.

They also wondered who the top four could be.

Could it be that the Liquor Sword Immortal had reincarnated?

But that would only take up one spot!

When the ranking appeared, the Secret Forces also stirred up a wave of discussion.

Within the Secret Forces, besides those traitorous powerhouses, many were nurtured from a young age by the Secret Forces, which fostered a strong sense of belonging.

And Can Rong was one of those beings nurtured by the Secret Forces from a young age.

However, he had never displayed strong abilities, not standing out at all.

Even more so, no one had a close relationship with him.

Suddenly being listed sixth on the list stunned many.

After all, even the Child of Origin was only ranked ninth!

While everyone was pointing fingers and speculating about Can Rong’s cultivation, a powerful presence suddenly appeared.

It was actually the astral body of the Master of the Tower of Time, drawing amazement and envy from many beings.

Everyone knew that Can Rong’s presence on the list had actually alarmed the Master of the Tower of Time to come in person.

With a wave of his hand, the Master of the Tower of Time made Can Rong appear.

There he was, a youth wrapped in twilight, appearing gentle and refined.

Many who saw him had an illusion of being unable to look directly at him.

Such a person should shine brightly and be the focus of everyone’s attention.

Yet, he remained so obscure.

They even questioned themselves why they had not noticed such a being before.

Then, the Master of the Tower of Time and Can Rong vanished from sight.

"Can Rong, could he actually be someone the Master himself has been nurturing behind the scenes?"

Wang Bing frowned slightly in the shadows.

Apparently, even she, a Supreme, was unaware of Can Rong’s existence.

Moreover, since the Master of the Tower of Time had been acting a bit odd recently, Wang Bing had been quietly keeping an eye on him.

She always felt something was... off about him?

However, just then, a voice suddenly reached her ears.

"Wang Bing, what... are you doing?"

The voice startled Wang Bing deeply.

She was a Supreme, and her strength was among the top in the Epoch.

There were only a handful who could appear so suddenly at her side without a sound.

"Master!" Wang Bing turned around, and the Master of the Tower of Time had appeared behind her without her notice.

"Wang Bing, do you have any doubts?" asked the Master of the Tower of Time.

"Master, who exactly is Can Rong? Why has he never had any fame?" Wang Bing asked, stabilizing her emotions.

At the same time, her thoughts were racing.

The Master of the Tower of Time might appear amiable.

But Wang Bing had personally witnessed the Master striking down a Supreme.

If she exhibited any improper behavior, she feared the Master might take action against her.

"Can Rong is my disciple... actually, he is one of my disciples!" said the Master of the Tower of Time.

"I had once sought a vessel, and Can Rong was also once a candidate for the vessel but was later rejected. He has been cultivating here ever since. Now that the Qingyun List has been released, I wanted to place him on the list, hoping he could meet the Chaotic Martial Ancestor."

"Unfortunately, sixth place is too low. I fear he won’t meet the Chaotic Martial Ancestor."

"Now, do you have any more questions?"

"No more!" Wang Bing promptly replied.

She was somewhat surprised that the Master had explained so thoroughly to her.

Although she was also a member of the Tower of Time, she seldom heard the Master speak so much.

Moreover, the Master’s explanation was logical and well-founded.

She assumed there would be no deception over this matter.

"The Calamity of Oblivion is about to descend, and we all must follow our lord to the legendary Realm of the True Path!" As the Master of the Tower of Time finished speaking, his figure vanished on the spot.

The so-called Realm of the True Path is also what everyone in the Secret Forces aspires to.

Rumors say that there, there are no calamities.

There, one can get closer to the Great Path, touch the Great Path, and increase the chances of achieving enlightenment.

Rumors say that there, Supremes are just ordinary residents, and the Great Path is commonplace.

To this place, all members of the Secret Forces aspire and look forward to their lord leading them there.

And the lord had also said, as long as all Epochs are completely destroyed and sacrificed, they would be qualified to follow.

Now, after striving through so many Epochs, seeing the Realm of the True Path just ahead, the members of the Secret Forces would only grow more insane!

After the Master of the Tower of Time left, Wang Bing also didn’t linger any longer.

At this moment, within the core of the Secret Forces.

Before the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning stood a person.

This person was clad in an earthy yellow cloak.

Just like the Master of the Tower of Time, his true face seemed unseeable.

"My lord, I have thoroughly investigated the matter of time. He has no suspicion and is unlikely to betray." The person’s voice was slightly hoarse.

Despite his respectful demeanor before the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning.

Within the Secret Forces, he also held high authority.
