Chapter 996: Returning to the Gentleman Alliance

Wang Jianqiang, Mu Lingxi, and Liu Qing'er arrived at the Transmission Array point of the Great Wilderness Immortal Palace.

After a familiar conversation with the Instructor guarding the Transmission Array, they transmitted away.

On the wilderness outside Whirlwind City.

A patch of void suddenly rippled like water, and three figures—one man and two women—stepped out from within.

Wang Jianqiang activated his Fiery Eyes and Golden Gaze to glance toward Whirlwind City; that familiar city caused a flash of nostalgia to cross his face.

He recalled the scenes of friendly exchanges with the City Lord and his son when he first entered this city.

After withdrawing his gaze.

He took out an exquisite Palace Artifact and entered it together with Mu Lingxi and Liu Qing'er.

It had been many years.

Worried that Liu Qing'er might have encountered problems in her cultivation over these years, Wang Jianqiang took the initiative to offer to help her check.

Liu Qing'er, fully displaying her excellent quality of being diligent and motivated, nodded and agreed without a second thought.

This check lasted for twenty days.

Afterward, Wang Jianqiang shifted his target and turned his attention to Mu Lingxi.

He decided to help Mu Lingxi with a check as well.

Then he would check Liu Qing'er again.

Then check Mu Lingxi again.

Very quickly.

Three months passed.

Amidst their diligent cultivation, the three arrived before the mountain gate of the Gentleman Alliance.

A flash of Spirit Light shone on the Palace Artifact, and Wang Jianqiang, Liu Qing'er, and Mu Lingxi flashed out from within.

Wang Jianqiang waved his palm and put away the Palace Artifact.

The three did not deliberately restrain their aura.

The moment they appeared, strands of Spirit Sense spread out from the Junzi Sect one after another.

The next moment.

Beams of Spirit Light flickered continuously in the air, and in the blink of an eye, several peerlessly beautiful figures appeared above the Gentleman Alliance.

The sudden commotion drew the attention of many Disciples within the Gentleman Alliance.

Everyone looked up.

When they saw those peerlessly beautiful figures, their expressions flashed with astonishment, and at the same time, they could not help but feel a bit surprised.

Dong Yue, Lin Lin, Yun Xin, Xing Li, Wang Yu Yao...

These high-level figures, who were rarely seen on ordinary days, had actually appeared all at once!

Opposite them were three figures: one man and two women.

By the looks of it.

Dong Yue and the others had clearly appeared to welcome the arrival of the three.

Among the three.

Everyone was most familiar with Liu Qing'er.

But most people were somewhat unfamiliar with Mu Lingxi and Wang Jianqiang.

This portion of people were all Disciples who had joined the Gentleman Alliance later on.

Of course.

Although the original old Disciples of the Hehuan Sect, Zhengyang Sect, and Wan Jian Sect had suffered heavy losses during the initial war against the invasion from Outside the Realm, they were not wiped out, and a portion of them had survived.

After the Gentleman Alliance was rebuilt, these people were also merged into the Gentleman Alliance.

However, among the current Disciples of the Gentleman Alliance, this group occupied only a very small portion.

They had witnessed the rise of Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi with their own eyes.

Naturally, they were extremely familiar with these two legendary big figures.

"It is Supreme Elder Wang Jianqiang and Supreme Elder Mu Lingxi; they have returned!"

These people looked at Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi, their eyes filled with burning light.

As exclamations erupted from their mouths.

Those Disciples who had joined later were also stunned.

Although they had not seen Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi, they had heard of these two names.

It was rumored that these two originated from the Hehuan Sect, the predecessor of the Gentleman Alliance.

They rose with astonishing momentum and became a batch of the most top-tier prodigies in this world.

Especially Wang Jianqiang.

He had even accomplished several earth-shattering feats and was a supreme existence that all peer Cultivators in this world could look up to!

Thinking of the various rumors regarding Wang Jianqiang.

The gazes everyone cast toward Wang Jianqiang instantly became incomparably burning.

Above the Gentleman Alliance.

Dong Yue and the other high-level members of the Gentleman Alliance looked at Wang Jianqiang, their expressions filled with excitement.

If not for being in the public eye, where they needed to maintain their composure, the women would likely have lost their composure by now.

Even so.

Crystal-clear tears welled up in the eyes of the women one after another.

"They say that a scourge lasts for a thousand years; I didn't really believe it before, but ever since I met you, I truly believe it."

Yan Qingxuan spoke, and as the words left her lips, the women all burst into laughter.

In the days that followed.

The Gentleman Alliance became exceptionally lively.

A piece of thrilling news reached the ears of every Gentleman Alliance Disciple.

The two Supreme Elders of the Gentleman Alliance who had already become legends, Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi, had all returned!

Upon hearing this news, every Gentleman Alliance Disciple could not help but feel a surge of excitement.

Wang Jianqiang, Mu Lingxi.

These two names were too dazzling.

Especially Wang Jianqiang.

His brilliance was no longer limited to the Tianhuo Domain; even looking at this entire world, he was like the bright sun in the sky, looked up to by all his peers.

Being able to have such a dazzling Supreme Elder made every Gentleman Alliance Disciple feel a sense of shared honor.

Just as the entire Gentleman Alliance was filled with discussions about the return of Wang Jianqiang and Mu Lingxi.

Wang Jianqiang, the person involved, was currently busy.

And Dong Yue, Wang Yu Yao, Su Yutong, Xing Li... and the other high-ranking members of the Gentleman Alliance seemed to have agreed on something, as they collectively disappeared.

It was not until two months later that Wang Jianqiang, Mu Lingxi, and the high-ranking members of the Gentleman Alliance reappeared in the public eye.

"Fire Fairy has been taking extra care of the Gentleman Alliance and even volunteered to become a Supreme Elder of the Gentleman Alliance?"

When Wang Jianqiang finished listening to Dong Yue's words, he couldn't help but be stunned.

As far as he knew.

That Fire Fairy was a genuine Great Vehicle Stage combatant.

In front of such a powerhouse, a force like the Gentleman Alliance was like children playing house.

She was actually willing to be a Gentleman Alliance Supreme Elder??

A strange look flashed across Wang Jianqiang's face; his gaze paused on Dong Yue for a moment, then he looked at the other women, "Does that Fire Fairy have some history with one of you?"

The expressions of Dong Yue and the others also became strange, "You don't know Fire Fairy?"

Wang Jianqiang was stunned, "I don't, what's wrong?"

The expressions of Dong Yue and the others became even stranger, "The reason Fire Fairy joined the Gentleman Alliance is not because she has history with any of us, but because she has history with you."

Wang Jianqiang was dumbfounded, "History with me?"

Dong Yue nodded with a half-smile, "Fire Fairy once thought you had fallen and was depressed for a very long time. If it weren't for the fact that the Out-of-Boundary Cultivators hadn't been wiped out and the people who harmed you hadn't died, we even suspected she might have done something desperate because of it."

"Tsk tsk, you're quite something, even a Great Vehicle Stage Cultivator has been charmed by you to this extent."

Wang Jianqiang was completely bewildered.

A Great Vehicle Stage female Cultivator?

Aside from Xiaobai, who had yet to recover her full strength, and Lan Nianbing in his Soul Sea, he had only befriended one, and that was Outside the Realm.

Within the Immortal Abandoned Land, among the female Cultivators he had a decent relationship with, the strongest was Gu Xinran, a Spirit Transformation Stage Perfection level Cultivator.

As for Nian Qinghe, he hadn't befriended her yet, so she didn't count.

Could it be...

Had Xuanyi been keeping secrets from him all along?

That's not right.

Xuanyi's Attribute Panel showed that he was a man, that couldn't be wrong.

Who on earth is it?
