In addition to Jiang Hua, there were also many young geniuses from a variety of different forces.
There were prodigies from the best righteous and demonic path sects, monsters who had sealed themselves away in the distant past, mysterious practitioners from hidden families and sects, and even ordinary, unremarkable young cultivators who were simply lucky enough to be here.
It couldn't be said that there were a huge number of young practitioners, but there were enough to launch a ranking tournament, and even so there wouldn't be enough places for everyone.
Each force stood apart from the other, and in the shadow of each youth was a powerful expert who could save his disciple at any moment.
After all, skirmishes between the younger generations were inevitable, especially when it came to people from the righteous and demonic paths, because they couldn't stand each other. Unlike the others, who were neutral and indifferent to the rest.
Jiang Hua stood aside from all the forces, near a group of random young practitioners, and listened to what the others were saying.
According to her aunt, this was where the savior of their clan was supposed to be.
In the center of a small oasis, there was a silver-colored door that emitted a golden light.
Many people had tried to open it and enter the unknown space, but no one had succeeded. After that, many people gave up and just waited.
Some people were meditating, while others were just telling various rumors or even the exploits of other people.
At the center of the righteous path was a young man dressed in white. His appearance was first-class, and his cultivation stage was at the first level of Earth Ascension(3), making him their leader.
"Brother Lu, do you think this ruthless demon will come? Although the demonic cult's bastards are here, he's not present, perhaps he's decided to decline this unexpected opportunity?" One of the group of righteous cultivators asked with a slightly different tone of emotion in his voice.
Lu Cheng chuckled slightly and replied:
"Demon? He is not worthy of this title. This trash who oppresses others with only his influence, do you think he would dare to compete with the various geniuses of our righteous path. I heard that he is at the Illusory Ascension(2, while we are at a higher stage. What is the point of him coming and simply dying. I believe that he would not dare to come"
It was obvious that Lu Cheng genuinely hated Su Mingyue for some reason, but it was unclear why.
Although he sounded arrogant and was completely confident, the other forces on the righteous path only sneered in disdain. Especially the practitioners of the demonic path.
Lu Cheng was a genius from the Azure Dragon Sect, and he would turn twenty-one this year, although it seemed impressive.
He could not be compared to Su Mingyue. After all, one was born talented and had the support of his family from an early age, while the other was able to join a demonic cult and even become a holy son just a year after joining.
Moreover, Su Mingyue was almost two years younger than him, and according to rumors, he had already reached the ninth level of Illusory Ascension (2), which was just one step away from entering a new realm.
As for his cruelty, many people were left speechless. Didn't you just kill a weak cultivator a few minutes ago for giving you an unfriendly look?
However, despite what most people thought, no one said anything. It's impossible to insult this person now, otherwise the entire righteous path might think it's a slap in their face.
"Hm, isn't the devil nine-tailed fox clan sealed or is she not from their family?"
Even though Jiang Hua was wearing a black long black hooded robe that completely covered her face, a pair of fluffy black tails occasionally swayed despite their reluctance.
And of course, this scene was noticed by many, including Lu Cheng.
Of course, there were some lucky people who tried to strike up a conversation with her, but everyone who approached her was mercilessly killed before they could take a few steps.
Jiang Hua was the most powerful among them, being at the third level of the Earth Ascension stage(3).
Looking at the people who had died tragically, many gave up on this idea, even if it was a rare opportunity to learn more about this mysterious race.
Lu Cheng knew that she was two levels stronger than him, but he approached her without getting too close or too far away and asked,
"Since when have members of the Nine-Tailed Devil Fox clan come out? Is it because of the legacy of an ancient ancestor?"
Jiang Hua raised her eyes slightly and replied indifferently:
"It's none of your business" Just three words that seemed so cold that many cowardly practitioners shuddered slightly at her tone.
After cursing inwardly, Lu Cheng's smile disappeared, and he said irritably:
"I hope you'll repeat those words in the spatial pocket"
Jiang Hua didn't respond, and Lu Cheng, with the thought that once she entered the silver door, it would become her grave, left her side.
The young practitioners of the righteous path breathed a sigh of relief.
They didn't want Brother Lu to be injured before they even entered the spatial pocket, after all, he was their pillar of support.
"Auntie, are you sure about your assumptions?" Jiang Hua couldn't help but sigh as she watched Lu Cheng walk away.
He was the best among all the prodigies, and Jiang Hua couldn't help but shake her head in disappointment.
How could such a person help them save the clan from imminent destruction?
"I just won't think about it, if she wants to see him then let her…" Jiang Hua was certain that if her aunt said that it was Lu Cheng who should save them, she would refuse at all costs to tie herself to a marriage with such a person.
