The difference between mastering the transformation of internal force and the ordinary warrior realm was so great that even all the chief true disciples of the two large sects combined could not compare to him.

With the difference in their cultivation levels, they would be defeated one by one. There was no point in interacting with each other.

“When my disciple comes, I’ll bring him to you for some guidance. Don’t worry and just show him your moves. Even if he’s injured, I won’t blame anyone,” Zhou Xuesheng pretended not to see anything and suggested.

“…”

Cheng Shikun and Su Xuyang felt a little faint and were left speechless.

Chen Yiming had killed mutant beasts of the same level around the sea of flowers, so his combat strength was extraordinary.

Although he was young and had only mastered the transformation of his internal force for a short time, Cheng Shikun and Su Xuyang were not confident that they could achieve such a result.

Talent was often unreasonable, making the older generation feel dejected.

If they really wanted to spar, Cheng Shikun and Su Xuyang would be the first to back down, afraid that they would be taken advantage of.

Seeing this, Zhou Xuesheng who was madly showing off his disciple shook his head and quickly stood up to leave.

Initially, he only planned to disrupt the alliance between the Kunshan Sect and the Jiyang Sect. However, as he spoke, he somehow went off track.

Thinking about how almost all the sect masters who could threaten Chen Yiming had been sent to the otherworld, he couldn’t help but show off his disciples to further increase the reputation of the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

…

At the Peninsula Hotel, the elevator door opened and Chen Yiming walked out.

With his outstanding achievements in killing mutant beasts, he was naturally also invited by the city guardian, Lin Qianfan.

After resting in the presidential suite for a while, he prepared to head to the bamboo forest villa for the tea party.

Wan Ya held Chen Yiming’s arm with one hand and walked awkwardly. It was as if she needed Chen Yiming as a support. Otherwise, she might fall.

She had changed into a casual sleeveless dress. The skirt reached her knees, making her legs look longer and her figure more outstanding. Then, she tied a black ribbon around her neck.

She had light makeup on, but it still could not hide her blush.

Her bold outfit and shy appearance made her look like a newlywed.

Chen Yiming felt refreshed.

Wan Ya came from a warrior clan, so her intelligence was still high. Although she was in a relationship, the last line of defense was still there. Chen Yiming had already sent people to investigate her past.

Unlike the masked man, Chen Yiming still had to maintain a positive image on the surface. This would help him move towards a higher level.

Because of Chen Yiming, the Chen clan would definitely become an influential martial arts clan in the future.

This way, if Wan Ya’s innocence was ruined before she entered the Chen clan, even if she was related to Wan Rong, she would become a stain on Chen Yiming’s reputation in the future. It would be easy for others to make a fuss about it.

It was different from how relaxed Chen Yiming felt.

Gu Chen, who was still waiting on the sofa in the hotel lobby, was stunned. His gaze stopped on Wan Ya.

The way his girlfriend walked, the way she dressed, and the expression on her face told him without a doubt what had happened between the two of them up there.

The vows they had exchanged, the promises they had made in the past, the strong trust between them, were all shattered like a mirror.

Wan Ya had once sworn that she would save her most precious moment for their wedding night, but…

“Things have to end eventually.”

Chen Yiming glanced at him and gestured.

Against a small fry like Gu Chen, if Chen Yiming made a move now, he would easily be accused of bullying the weak. It wasn’t worth it.

When Wan Ya heard this, her heart almost jumped out of her chest. Then, she took a deep breath and nodded before walking towards Gu Chen.

At this moment, Gu Chen came back to his senses. He looked like he was crying and smiling at the same time, and his heart felt like it had been stabbed by someone.

This was the sorrow of the weak. They could only watch helplessly as everything happened, not daring to do anything to stop it.

“…You’re a good person, but we’re not compatible.”

Wan Ya deliberated for a moment before saying just one line.

She did not explain any further. Everything was clear without her having to say any more.

Wan Ya, who had turned her back on her past, quickly returned to Chen Yiming’s side.

The two of them walked out of the Peninsula Hotel and headed straight for the bamboo forest villa.

Gu Chen, who seemed to have lost his soul, could only watch as the two of them slowly disappeared at the end of the street.

The decline of the Kunshan Sect had caused him to lose his greatest backing. Furthermore, he was not as skilled as others. Before he could make a comeback, their child might have already grown up.

…

In the living room of the villa, a tea party was going on.

The city guardian, Lin Qianfan, had a head of white hair and his face was red. He sat at the head of the table.

He was dressed in a simple long robe and had a pair of bright eyes. Just by appearing there, he gave off an imposing aura.

This was the aura of a superior. He had been in charge of a large city with more than 10 million people for many years. Even if he restrained his aura, no one could ignore his existence.

Each of them received information about the areas they were assigned to from Lin Qianfan.

The task assigned to them was mainly to eliminate the giant steel-spear spiders that had appeared.

The atmosphere was very relaxed. Everyone had already received the news that the spider emperors had completely disappeared.

This way, before the spider emperors returned, it would only be a matter of time before the spiders were wiped out from the southern cities with the support of the factions from the entire province.

At this moment, on a wall in the hall, a huge LCD screen displayed the areas that the guests were responsible for.

“What!”

Those who could attend the tea party were at least at the level of the court heads and peak masters of the various large sects, and the leaders of the medium-sized factions. All of them were famous figures in Jiangnan province.

However, at this moment, most of them gasped.

The LCD screen displayed a map of the cities in the south of Jiangnan province. The map was red in color and was divided into areas by black lines.

To everyone’s surprise, an area about ten times the size of the other areas that was the most eye-catching had the name “Chen Yiming” on it.

It was common knowledge that the size of the area each person was responsible for roughly reflected their combat abilities in the eyes of the higher-ups in Jiangnan province.

In other words, to a certain extent, by openly announcing the true combat strength of everyone present, one could tell at a glance what level they were at.

“How embarrassing.”

The leaders of the medium-sized factions were extremely ashamed. After practicing martial arts for so many years, they could not compare to a young man who was not even 20 years old.

“I’m not the only one who can’t do it. The others can’t either.”

Then, he took a second look at the court heads and peak masters of the large sects. These people instantly regained their lost confidence.

Soon, the crowd started to discuss in low voices.

The content of the discussion was the area that the Kunshan Sect was in charge of.

The Kunshan Sect’s Cheng Shikun was not only in charge of an extremely small area, which was about the same as the leader of a medium-sized faction, but also far away from the area Chen Yiming was in charge of.

One was in the west, and the other was in the east.

The meaning behind this was obvious. Firstly, they wanted to protect Cheng Shikun from the Kunshan Sect. Secondly, they wanted to tell the Myriad Phenomena Sect that they should prioritize the overall situation and not use any underhanded tricks.

Cheng Shikun’s face was filled with embarrassment. He wished he could just leave.

The Kunshan Sect was a large sect that was well-known in Jiangnan province just a month ago. No matter where they went, they attracted a lot of attention.

Now, they had actually fallen to such a state.

This tea party revealed the weakness of the Kunshan Sect to all the factions in Jiangnan province.

On the other hand, Zhou Xuesheng sat upright with a calm expression, enjoying the envious gazes of the crowd.

No matter what, teaching for a day was still teaching. Even if he as the master had contributed very little to the glory his disciple had achieved, he would still bask in the glory.

After all, why was it his disciple who had been so successful and not someone else’s disciple?
