Chapter 272 Emperor Shitian and Xiao 3 Xiao
After Zhu Yuyan and Fan Qinghui's two groups left, Lian Xing's beautiful eyes turned slightly, looking at Zhang Sanniang beside her, and said softly, "Sanniang, in my opinion, Fan Qinghui is not someone who will give up easily. I'm sure she will rack her brains to come up with other ways to force you to make a deal with her."
Hearing this, Zhang Sanniang's lips curled up slightly, and she let out a sweet laugh. "Humph, as the saying goes, if an enemy comes, we must fight him; if a flood comes, we must block it with earth. Besides, with Lin Tian here to help me, why should I be afraid of Fan Qinghui?"
After saying that, Zhang Sanniang glanced at Lin Tian intentionally or unintentionally, and a hint of tenderness flashed in her eyes.
In response to Zhang Sanniang's behavior, Lin Tian did not refute her, but just responded with a slightly helpless smile.
He knew in his heart that Zhang Sanniang was deliberately showing her dependence on him in front of everyone.
At this moment, Zhang Sanniang changed the subject and said in a gentle voice, "Alright, let's not discuss this matter any further for now. Look everyone, the fourth place on the Strongest Ranking will be announced on the sky curtain!"
As soon as Zhang Sanniang finished speaking, a dazzling golden light suddenly shone from the sky. In an instant, an enormous, shimmering golden character slowly emerged!
[The fourth place on the Strongest List is Emperor Shitian, the leader of Tianmen. His strength and cultivation have reached the perfect realm of a land immortal.]
At the same time, Emperor Shitian, who was in the extremely cold land, looked up at the ranking displayed on the sky. His face instantly became gloomy and his eyes were burning with rage.
"How can this be absurd! My sect leader's strength is unparalleled in the world, how can he only be ranked fourth? This is simply ridiculous!"
Indra roared with gritted teeth, and his voice exploded like thunder in the ice and snow.
As an ancient warrior who has survived for more than two thousand years, Emperor Shitian naturally has extremely firm self-confidence in his heart.
After all, over the long years, even if there were people who were stronger than himself, they had long since disappeared in the long river of time.
What's more, apart from the mysterious tribulation survivor a few days ago, there doesn't seem to be any extremely shocking and powerful figures emerging in this world in the past few hundred years.
After distributing the rewards to Emperor Shitian, Tiandao's solemn voice rang out again, resounding like a mighty bell throughout the entire Martial Arts World: "Next, I will announce the second place winner of the Strongest List—Twelve Frightened Laughs and Three Smiles! His strength and cultivation have already reached the Half-Step Hedao Realm!"
As Xiao Sanxiao's astonishing strength and cultivation were made public, the entire martial arts world was instantly plunged into an uproar and heated discussion.
People were whispering to each other, and exclamations of surprise were heard one after another.
"Half a step to the Hedao realm? Could it be that above the legendary realm of immortals on land is this Hedao realm?" Someone muttered to himself in astonishment.
"In that case, the Half-Step Hedao Realm can only be ranked third. Then, don't the top two strong men have already entered the Hedao Realm?" Another person couldn't help but take a breath, unable to hide his inner shock.
"In my opinion, the thrilling tribulation scene a few days ago must have been the work of one of them. Moreover, that thunder tribulation must have been a terrifying heavenly tribulation belonging to the Hedao realm!" What's more, some people boldly asserted based on their own speculation.
All of a sudden, all kinds of speculations and discussions surged in like a tide, making the originally peaceful martial arts world suddenly become turbulent and bustling.
In that quaint inn, sunlight streamed through the window onto the wooden tabletop.
Zhang Sanniang stared at Lin Tian opposite her with her beautiful eyes and asked softly, "Lin Tian, do you know who Emperor Shitian and Xiao Sanxiao are?" Her voice was crisp and pleasant, but there was a hint of curiosity that was hard to conceal.
As soon as he finished speaking, Lian Xing and Yao Yue, who were sitting beside him, turned their eyes to Lin Tian at the same time, and their eyes also showed strong interest.
Obviously, they knew very little about these two mysterious figures.
Lin Tian just nodded slightly, indicating that he knew about this.
Then, he opened his lips and began to tell various legends about Emperor Shitian and Xiao Sanxiao.
From their astonishing martial arts skills to their legendary experiences over the long years, Lin Tian told the stories as if they were happening right before his eyes.
As Lin Tian's narration deepened, the expressions on the three women's faces became increasingly fascinating. Upon hearing that Emperor Shitian had actually lived for over two thousand years, and that Xiao Sanxiao had lived for over four thousand years, the three of them could not help but look at each other in amazement, their hearts welling up with deep shock.
Zhang Sanniang was the first to break the silence, unable to help but sigh, "Two thousand years, four thousand years! I can't believe that in this world we live in, there are people who can live so long! This is simply a miracle beyond comprehension."
Lian Xing also echoed, "Yes, what's even more incredible is that there are magical beasts in the world that can help people achieve immortality! If such a magical creature could really be found, who knows what kind of earth-shaking waves it would cause."
After saying that, she shook her head slightly, as if she was still immersed in the huge shock brought by what she had just heard.
However, at this time, Yao Yue did not express her feelings as much as the other two girls.
Her cold and beautiful eyes stared straight at Lin Tian, and she suddenly asked, "Lin Tian, in my opinion, with your skills and knowledge, you must have already entered the realm of Hedao, right?" As soon as these words came out, all the Lianxing present were stunned.
Faced with Yao Yue's direct question, Lin Tian just smiled slightly, neither admitting nor denying.
Behind his unfathomable smile, it seemed as if endless secrets were hidden, making it increasingly difficult for others to grasp the extent of his true strength.
Just when the people in the Martial Arts World were still immersed in the previous round of heated discussions about the Strongest List, a dazzling light suddenly flashed across the sky, as if foreshadowing that major changes were about to take place.
Everyone looked up and saw that the originally calm list of strong people began to flash with golden light. As the light gradually converged, new rankings and information slowly emerged.
"Look! The strong list has been updated again!" I don't know who shouted this sentence first, and it immediately attracted everyone's attention.
When the light completely dissipated, everyone finally saw the latest list of the strongest.
The second-place name suddenly caught my eye—Zhang Sanfeng, the head of the Wudang Sect! And behind his name was a clear indication of his astonishing cultivation strength: the Hedao realm!
For a moment, the entire martial arts world seemed to have been paused, and the originally noisy crowd instantly became silent.
Everyone stared with wide eyes, looking at the shining name on the sky in disbelief.
Zhang Sanfeng? Surprisingly, this legendary martial arts master occupied the second place on the Strongest List!
However, after a brief silence, the scene seemed to explode, and a wave of discussion broke out that was more intense and more turbulent than before.
"Zhang Sanfeng has actually reached the Hedao realm? This is too incredible!" Someone couldn't help but exclaimed.
"Yes, I've always heard that his martial arts skills are unfathomable, but I didn't expect him to reach such a high level!" another person echoed.
"I'm afraid the world will be reshuffled now..." someone else said worriedly.
Various sounds came one after another, interweaving together to form a noisy ocean.
Some people expressed their admiration and respect for Zhang Sanfeng's strength, believing that he deserved the title; some speculated how the masters of other sects would react after hearing the news; some even began to think about how to climb up the mighty Wudang Sect.
In short, because of Zhang Sanfeng's appearance on the list and the powerful strength he demonstrated, the entire martial arts world fell into unprecedented sensation and excitement.
This debate about the strong is destined to become an enduring topic and spread throughout the world.
