Cultivation—Stand above the Heaven Chapter 90

What Wandong said in his toast delighted Wu Daozi to the brim. So did Sun Daobai. Sun said to Xu Wenchuan in amazement, "Senior Xu, Yaoting has changed a lot! He has utterly emerged from his unbridled disposition in the past."

Sun Daobai's sentiment brought Xu Wenchuan a burst of laughter. Xu hastened to respond, "Indeed! Yaoting has finally grown into what a Xu's offspring should be." The senior duke made no secret of his relief and complacence.

Sun Daobai nodded in agreement and added, "You frowned every time when it came to Yaoting in the past, unlike the way you laughed gratified now. " The Sun looked over at Wandong and joked, "Yaoting, your grandpa had always been worrying about you. It's time he felt proud of you now."

Xu Wenchuan hastened to put in a word loudly before Wandong responded, "Daobai, are you aware that you missed out on a spectacle ?"

"Huh?" Sun Daobai hummed in bewilderment. But a tinge of curiosity soon appeared in his countenance. Given that Xu Wenchuan had been around in full, the spectacle must have been earth-shaking.

Xu Wenchuan tossed off another bowl of wine in jubilation. He wiped his mouth and added, "Wu Qiujun just paid a visit."

"He? Wasn't he staying in the Kingdom of Tiezhan (literally means akingdom of" bold and forceful troops)? What was the visit for?" Referring to Wu Qiujun, Sun Daobai knitted his eyebrows forthwith, which implied his aversion against Wu.

Xu Wenchuan uttered a hum and responded, "He came to display his strength."

"Displaying his strength to you? Hahaha...Was he nuts? Are you sure he wasn't asking for humility?" Sun Daobai said with contempt.

Xu Wenchuan let out a sigh and said in a grave tone, "You will never expect that he has attained the ninth-level spiritual energy in his cultivation."

"What?" On hearing that, Sun Daobai let out a startled cry, his face turning pale.

Xu Wenchuan knitted his eyebrows and said, "His cultivation has outstripped mine. The minute we met I took a beating."

"Wu Qiujun should have made such a speedy breakthrough! That was completely unfair! Could it be said that the whole world is gonna go to the dogs?"

"Grandpa, Wu Qiujun must have just accomplished his ninth-level spiritual energy in his cultivation. That was only one level above yours. Not a big deal," Wandong attempted to comfort his Xu Wenchuan.

"Aha, Yaoting, you talked rather big! It seems a master with ninth-level cultivation of spiritual energy is nothing to you," Sun Daobai said with a smile. It was rather weird that Yaoting appeared increasingly pleasant on the eyes for him now, poles apart from what he was like in the past ― Sun Daobai frowned at him every time they met.

Wandong didn't talk big at all. Having witnessed Li Baiyi's awe-inspiring techniques of overturning mountains and seas, Wandong naturally found Wu Qiujun unimpressive. Recalling the deeds of the Radiant God of Bright Spirit, Jade Soul, and Almighty Heavens in the Taoist world, the tenth cultivation of spiritual energy in the tiny secular world was merely nothing in the Taoist world. Even Li Baiyi's power generated from a simple wave could annihilate a dozen of martial masters boasting a tenth cultivation of spiritual energy.

"Haha... Brother Sun, I haven't told you that Wu Qiujun almost took Yaoting as his master on the spot," Xun Wenchuan said with another wave of laughter on recalling that scene. And Wu Daozi smiled as well.

On hearing the unexpected ending, Sun Daobai got baffled again and asked in amazement, "How could that be? Wu Qiujun, with a tenth-level cultivation of spiritual energy, nearly accepted Yaoting as his master?"

Sun Xiaoya went stupefied as well and fixed her eyes on Xu Wenchuan.
