Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled-Chapter 398 - 394: Dongfang Qingcang Arrives

Xia Feng’s expression was somewhat inexplicable, as if he wasn’t quite sure whether this ranking list was based on placement or points.

Next to him, Ximen Chun’s face, which had just been the color of pig liver, had now turned pale.

"How is this possible? My points, I clearly... I’m ninth, this can’t be."

The person next to him glanced at him with some confusion and then noticed that another person nearby didn’t look too pleased either.

"I was originally in tenth place and was supposed to be rewarded with a Middle Grade Secret Treasure, but now I’m out of the top ten, it’s become a Lower Grade Secret Treasure."

Xia Feng’s eyes flickered, as if he had found some kind of pattern.

Being in the top ten certainly adds some bonus, but for someone like him and Xia Tianming, points make the ranking more advantageous.

Ximen Chun was originally ninth, now pushed out of the top ten by two people, it’s likely the Middle Grade Secret Treasure has turned into a Lower Grade one, which is why he looks so upset.

Thinking of this, Xia Feng suddenly turned to look at Tang Yunqi, who was trying to hide himself in a corner.

The eyes of others also turned over, and someone began to mutter uncontrollably.

"This person came in with those two, the points are probably a lot too, right?"

"Could number 4 be this one?"

"I guess not, I heard number 4 is from the Dongfang Clan?"

"This kid is really lucky, getting brought in by these two."

"No kidding. Even though the Four Great Clans target these two, getting such a golden opportunity in the inheritance probably yields a lot."

"As for afterwards, no matter how powerful the Four Great Clans are, they can’t expand their influence over the whole Infinite Divine Domain."

"By then, just find a remote place to hide."

"Exactly, the abilities and cultivation on oneself are truly one’s own, this kid really knows how to exploit opportunities."

But someone expressed some doubt: "But, have you seen this kid before?"

"There are just a few hundred people in the Secret Realm. I roughly glanced over, haven’t seen him."

At this point, everyone understood that this was clearly a fake identity.

A few people exchanged looks, and then quickly dispersed, avoiding further entanglement in this topic.

Still, Tang Yunqi looked a bit helpless; he hadn’t intended to reveal his identity here, so he maneuvered around to stand behind Xia Feng again.

"Ah, buddy, no need to drag me out again?"

Xia Feng raised an eyebrow but said nothing more as another commotion broke out at the door.

Dongfang Qingcang of the Dongfang Clan walked in, surrounded by a group of people.

His face was slightly pale, perhaps exhausted from the earlier battle with the Blood Beast.

After all, not everyone is like Xia Feng and Xia Tianming, who can continuously recover strength within the Dream Realm Pearl.

Dongfang Qingcang truly spent nearly three days pushing himself to the limit.

Especially in the Sea of Secret Realm, Blood Beasts were everywhere, and there was nowhere to rest.

He initially wanted to rush into the Divine Hall of Inheritance early but hesitated as he looked at the ranking on the plum blossom brand on his hand.

Who were those damn numbers 18 and 17, killing faster than him?

Initially, he just wanted to compete with these numbers, but it became real concern.

The points of these two rose much quicker, so their rewards in the Inheritance Secret Realm would certainly surpass his; falling behind once would lead to falling behind repeatedly.

Dongfang Qingcang was not willing to accept such a possibility.

But the rapid increase in numbers left him feeling a bit hopeless.

On the third day of fighting, his consciousness began to blur.

He even almost got sneak-attacked by a Celestial Tier First Layer Martial God level Blood Beast near the Divine Hall of Inheritance due to exhaustion.

If not for the numerous Secret Treasures and family-provided treasures he had, he might have suffered injuries while entering the Divine Hall of Inheritance.

And when Dongfang Qingcang entered the Divine Hall of Inheritance, it wasn’t because he caught up with Xia Feng and Xia Tianming’s points, but because he couldn’t and decided to give up.

He saw that numbers 17 and 18 had stopped accumulating points and figured they must have entered the Divine Hall of Inheritance.

He truly wanted to see what kind of people these two were, capable of overshadowing him, a prodigy.

Upon entering, his gaze locked onto the screen, staring at those glaring numbers and the two people nearby.

Xia Feng seemed indifferent, being stared at wouldn’t cause him any harm, but Xia Tianming returned a sharp gaze.

This made Dongfang Qingcang look even worse.

At their level, one can estimate a person’s age by examining their bone age.

Who was this youngster standing at the front?

In his early twenties, a Profound Tier Seventh Martial God?

Especially as a prodigy of the Dongfang Clan, he naturally knew where these two came from.

The Lower Realm.

Mere mortals from the Lower Realm, able to produce such exceptional talents.

Even surpassing him, a prodigy.

As a direct descendant of the Dongfang Clan, with Heavenly Tier Martial Sovereign cultivation almost from birth, it’s easy to break through to a Martial God during growth.

Even so, Dongfang Qingcang couldn’t quite recall what he was doing at twenty.

Perhaps close to being a Yellow Tier Ninth Martial God? Maybe just breaking into Profound Tier?

In any case, he wasn’t like Xia Feng, stirring trouble everywhere and practically treating the world as an enemy.

In reality, Xia Feng himself didn’t want to oppose the world either.

Wasn’t he also forced out by these people?

If they hadn’t suddenly captured Xia Tianming, Xia Feng wouldn’t be at odds with the Dongfang Clan and the whole Infinite Divine Domain.

Considering the potential hostilities from the Ten Great Divine Domains, he didn’t wish to provoke so many foes.

But if someone slapped him in the face, Xia Feng wouldn’t just swallow his anger.

Their eyes met in the air briefly, both looking somewhat solemn.

Dongfang Qingcang, in contrast to Dongfang Baiyu, didn’t shout; he had a more reserved demeanor, and after glancing at Xia Feng, acted as if he didn’t exist, moving to a stone pillar.

The surrounding people fell silent, unlike earlier when they faced Xia Feng and his grandson, now they were quiet, fearing to disturb Dongfang Qingcang.

With the plum blossom brand on his hand pressed against the Blood Crystal Stone, number 4 began rapidly climbing the screen.
