Hehuan Sect, a magnificent and splendid place.
Tang Qing, who had been assessed as having bronze-level aptitude, stood in front of a man with a fawning expression on his face.
This man is Tang Qing's older brother, named Tang Yan. He is a prominent figure in the Hehuan Sect, possessing a silver-level aptitude and holding a high position within the sect.
He was also the murderer Mengying mentioned who killed her sister.
Tang Yan gives off an overall effeminate and seductive vibe, quite different from normal men.
However, his cultivation level is not low. He was already at the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm before he was even thirty years old. He can indeed be called a prodigy.
Tang Yan stared coldly at Tang Qing, "Speak, what do you want?"
Tang Qing smiled and said, "Brother, I have good news to share with you."
Tang Yan glanced at him. "Just say what you have to say. Don't beat around the bush. I know what you're thinking. Who have you got your eye on?"
Tang Qing wasn't embarrassed at being seen through. "Brother, you've been in seclusion lately. You probably don't know about the few geniuses who have emerged outside, do you?"
Tang Yan raised an eyebrow. "Tell me about it."
Tang Qing recounted in detail, "As you know, I recently went to test my aptitude, and the results weren't ideal, but I witnessed a somewhat dreamlike scene. There were four people: one with silver aptitude, one with gold aptitude, one with purple aptitude of unknown origin, and one whose result was completely unknown."
Tang Yan was startled. "Purple? Are you sure?"
Tang Qing nodded firmly, "I saw it with my own eyes."
Tang Yan immediately became interested, "Is it a boy or a girl?"
Tang Qing's lips curled up. He understood his brother's thoughts. "The one in silver and the one in purple are both women."
Tang Yan asked with a hint of hope, "Oh, what's its origin?"
Tang Qing didn't hide anything, "They are from the Heavenly Sword Sect."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yan glared at him fiercely, "Do you want to die? You dare to touch the people of the Heavenly Sword Sect?"
Tang Qing didn't take it seriously. "Brother, you've dealt with people of equal power before, and you've always gotten away with it."
Tang Yan ignored him.
Seeing this, Tang Qing continued to encourage them, "Those few are not core disciples, but merely guest elders."
Tang Yan shook his head again, "No, it's fine if it's another force, but the Heavenly Sword Sect is too troublesome."
Tang Qing refused to give up.
"Brother, let's wait until they're far away from the Heavenly Sword Sect. We'll do it without anyone noticing. Who will know?"
You can have the purple one; I only need the silver one.
Haven't you always aimed to be like Yan Yong of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect? I heard he's already reached the Nascent Soul stage and is preparing to break through to the Divine Transformation stage, while you're still stuck in the mid-Nascent Soul stage. This is a great opportunity for you.
Yan Yong has gold-level talent, and you only have silver-level talent. How can you possibly catch up with him at this rate? This is an opportunity given to you by fate; don't let it slip away.
Tang Yan was itching to try it after hearing what Tang Qing said; Yan Yong was indeed his target.
They are not much different in age, and are often compared by their elders.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Tang Yan lived in Yan Yong's shadow.
Tang Yan fell silent, pondering whether to take action—the risk was high, but the reward was great.
Tang Qing saw that he was thinking and did not dare to interrupt him.
After a moment, Tang Yan asked, "What are their cultivation levels?"
Tang Qing was delighted. "Of the three of them, the tallest is the woman with the purple fruit. The other two are at the early stage of the Golden Core realm, so they are not a threat."
"And the last one?"
"There's also that kid whose aptitude I don't know. He looks about seventeen or eighteen years old. I estimate he's at most a Golden Core cultivator. He's nothing to worry about."
Just then, a figure flew in; it was Feng Ji.
Feng Ji laughed and said, "Qing'er is here too. I hope I didn't disturb you two brothers."
Tang Qing chuckled, "I won't disturb you. Mr. Feng, you two can talk first. I'll take my leave now."
Tang Yan looked at Feng Ji with some surprise, "Mr. Feng, is something the matter?"
Feng Ji nodded. "There is something I'd like to discuss with you."
"Oh, what is it that requires your assistance?"
"Tang Qing told you about testing the stone tablet, right?"
"I just said that."
"That's good. What are your thoughts on those people?"
Tang Yan thought for a moment, "It won't have much of an impact in the short term, but it's a potential problem in the long term. Yan Yong's case has already served as a warning."
Feng Ji nodded approvingly, "That's right, the sect leader and I think so too."
"What does the sect leader mean?"
"Hehe, having Yan Yong is already a big problem, it's impossible to let these people grow up peacefully."
The sect leader means this is a test for you. You are the most promising candidate to become the next sect leader, and it's time for you to achieve something.
These are all young people, and their cultivation levels are not high, so it's just right for you to make a move.
"Don't worry, I'll be right behind you to protect you. If necessary, the sect leader will also intervene."
Tang Yan was overjoyed. He had been itching to make a move after hearing Tang Qing's story, and he would have done so if he hadn't been worried about the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Now, with the sect leader's instructions and Feng Ji's support, he is acting with complete impunity.
"Tang Yan will certainly live up to the sect leader's expectations."
Feng Ji offered a word of caution, "They're in Tianjiao City right now. It's best not to make a move there; it'll cause a lot of trouble."
Tang Yan confidently agreed, "Don't worry, Mr. Feng, I will handle this perfectly."
...
Tianjiao Tower.
Qin Feng and the others returned to Tianjiao Tower.
Yin Tiantian asked, "Junior brother, what do we do now?"
Qin Feng remained calm. "Didn't I say that we don't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of it? If someone tries to cause trouble, we'll deal with it."
Then he said to Shen Mengying, "You still need to talk to Elder Shen about the Fengqing Sect matter. Even if there is no evidence, you should be mentally prepared."
