Chapter 463: We Are Pure Love, After All!

~9 min read 1,790 words

Yes, in the eyes of neutral observers, Ren Yidao's performance could be described as nothing short of stunning.

Despite being a pride of a super sect, he was able to maintain his original intent, neither arrogant nor impetuous.

Not only was he in no rush to show off his own strength, but he also suppressed the other disciples along the way, letting them cultivate their own character as well.

Without strength as a backdrop, his approach would be a clever way to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, not wasting power on unnecessary vanity, and gaining the greatest benefit at the lowest cost.

It wasn't wrong, but it ultimately left the onlookers feeling unsatisfied, as if it weren't quite enough.

But when Ren Yidao displayed his strength—and a crushing strength at that—his behavior of biding his time took on a different interpretation.

He had great determination.

Because he was extremely confident in his own strength, he was in no hurry to strike at the small fry.

Once he did strike, it was sure to be earth-shattering!

And Ren Yidao had indeed achieved that.

After suppressing Jiu Ri, he erupted in one go, performing an astonishing feat that had no predecessor and would likely have no successor.

With just a single move, he sent a thousand experts into a dream simultaneously, holding their lives entirely in his own hands.

How could such terrifying methods not be shocking?

As for easily passing through the Heaven Gate at the end, compared to his previous operations, it was actually less eye-catching.

For these people, they had simply witnessed the birth of a super new star of the Beiming Divine Continent.

Or rather, in the eyes of many, Ren Yidao was already more than just a new star.

A great cultivator with strength at least at the Void Refinement stage—how could he still be a new star?

This was clearly a bright moon that had suddenly appeared in the sky!

At this moment, no one believed the age Ren Yidao had declared to the outside world anymore.

A Void Refinement cultivator under twenty?

What a joke!

Even if you Divine Path Sect want to put on an act, you should at least make it look convincing!

In the eyes of these people, they all regarded Ren Yidao as a trump card that the Divine Path Sect had kept hidden for a long time, specifically to let him sweep the Immortal Sect Grand Competition in one go.

Many could not help but sigh:

"Divine Path Sect, what a great scheme!"

"To think they could hide such a heaven-gifted talent so deeply!"

This Divine Path Sect usually keeps a low profile, but erupts the moment it matters!

But they were not surprised, as this could be considered an old tradition of the Divine Path Sect.

Back then, Sikong Yu also quietly snuck into the Southern Border, and only became known after suppressing all the heroes; before that, outsiders had no idea the Divine Path Sect even had such a disciple.

The Divine Path Sect is truly too sinister!!!

Despicable!

Shameless!

Ren Yidao was unaware of the outsiders' evaluation of the Divine Path Sect; at this moment, he was simply smiling and nodding one by one at those looking at him with a gentle expression.

He didn't need to explain anything to anyone.

As long as one's own strength is sufficient, no matter what one does, others will always find a reasonable and self-consistent explanation for themselves.

There are always great scholars to debate the scriptures for me. JPG

As for now, business hours have begun.

Huhu, I am different from the other autistic children of the Divine Path Sect; I am very well-versed in human nature.

"Hmph."

Jian Xinxin looked at Ren Yidao's posturing and couldn't help but let out a soft snort, muttering under his breath:

"... This guy, acting like a decent person at a time like this."

His behavior, like that of a resentful wife, caused Mei to push his shoulder speechlessly and give him a look.

That's enough out of you, it never ends.

Glared at by Mei, Jian Xinxin could only pout aggrievedly and swallow his complaints into his stomach.

He understood.

He understood it all.

Even if he were to recount all of Ren Yidao's wicked deeds right now, this woman wouldn't listen, and would only blame him for being petty.

The current Mei was still lost and had not fully accepted her past identity.

Overall, although she did not resist acknowledging him, she still felt more like Ren Yidao's senior sister and less like his wife...

Jian Xinxin understood, he clearly understood it all.

But why did he feel his eyes were always wet and his heart was so bitter...

Mei noticed Jian Xinxin's dejected expression, and feeling a pang of sympathy in her heart, she took his hand and said softly:

"Give me some more time."

"Hm?"

Jian Xinxin's heart trembled violently, and he slowly turned his head to look, meeting Mei's eyes.

"Give me some more time, A Jian."

Mei turned her head slightly in an unnatural way, but she did not let go of Jian Xinxin's trembling hand, still gripping it tightly.

"I promise, I won't leave again, I will stay by your side, but, give me some more time."

"... Mm! Take your time, take your time."

At this moment, Jian Xinxin was clearly nodding with a smile, but he couldn't help wanting to cry.

Her palms were a bit cold, different from the past.

Her aura was a bit unfamiliar, also different from the past.

But her heart was still as soft as it was in the past.

Give her some more time; don't be too anxious, and don't frighten her.

You have already lost her once; this time, you absolutely must not lose her again.

"……Hehehehe."

Just as those two were gazing deeply at each other, Ren Yidao smiled and winked at Mei, silently withdrawing the Fox Tail Clone he had hidden on her.

"Mei Jie, this younger brother can only help you up to here; as for what happens next, you'll have to rely on yourself."

Jian Xinxin thought Mei was ignoring him only because of Ren Yidao's warning, but in fact, he was wrong.

It was Mei who had wanted to reveal her identity to him all along, but she had been blocked by Ren Yidao.

Senior sister, do you understand military strategy?

If you don't understand, then follow my lead.

To catch, one must first let go.

Deliberately revealing Mei's aura in front of Jian Xinxin, yet refusing to give him a response, keeping his emotions hanging until the very end before revealing her true self.

Delayed gratification!

He couldn't help them for their whole lives; a few pointers when necessary were enough, and the rest had to depend on them.

Ren Yidao wasn't worried about the feelings between the two of them at all; that affection would eventually lead them to continue moving forward.

And not a little fox strategist hiding in their arms, directing them hand-in-hand!

Furthermore, Ren Yidao silently shook his head at a figure rushing down from the Sword Casting Hut mountain gate, silently preventing her from barging in.

"Imperial Concubine, it's better to leave this time to the two of them first."

He used sound transmission to stop Ran Yeting, who was caught between laughter and tears, and used a calm tone to soothe her unstable emotions.

"Mei Jie won't leave again; there will be plenty of time in the future. Once they are ready, they will definitely explain it to you."

He persuaded her for quite a while before Ran Yeting reluctantly accepted this explanation, but her eyes never moved away from Mei.

"……Since you were in the know, why didn't you tell me beforehand? Did you all deliberately keep it from me?"

"Cough!!!"

Feeling the lethal tone of the Imperial Concubine, Ren Yidao decided to pretend he hadn't heard the question, gave a light cough, and awkwardly changed the subject.

"By the way, since you are here, is Brother Long here too?"

"Hmph, I'll settle the score with you later!"

Ran Yeting let out a cold snort, but she didn't continue to make a scene; the joy of Mei Yongdi "returning from the dead" made her unable to care about being angry, leaving only excitement in her heart.

"His Majesty, heh, went to see the Empress."

"Oh?"

From Ran Yeting's light remark, Ren Yidao tasted many layers of meaning.

These three people didn't come together!

Li Long got caught in the act! (bushi)

Ren Yidao was already too busy on his own end and had no interest in getting involved in the Shura field between these three; Jian Xinxin and this pair's pure love was simpler.

And it had no risks!

It wouldn't cause a fright at every turn……

"No, wait, my side is also pure love!"

Ren Yidao reflected for a moment, then decided not to reflect anymore.

Huhu, I am not wrong!

"I purely love every single one of them! Isn't that pure love enough?"

"This is truly too pure."

How rude, this is pure love we're talking about!

Thinking of this, Ren Yidao remembered his "wings" scattered across the Central Region of Sword Province……

"The two Junior Sisters should be fine; they can protect themselves by joining forces, though I don't know if they will continue to participate in the next round of the competition."

"Shi Xue will probably withdraw, Li Qiushui will definitely continue to participate, and the same goes for Li Fengyao; I don't know why those two fight the moment they meet……"

"Cang Lanlan and Li Yaoyue, those two 'let-go-and-they're-gone' types, disappeared the moment I let them out, but fortunately, I've already arranged their next identities: Li Canglan and Li Yaoyue of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect…… though I have a feeling Yaoyue will be lazy and withdraw. Whatever, as long as Cang Lanlan is obedient, it's fine."

"As for Jing Yueqin, heh, this fellow will nine times out of ten find a place to hide and avoid the limelight, waiting for me to cool down before coming over."

"In short, the first Shura field crisis has been temporarily avoided through a 'divide and conquer' approach. As for what comes next…… we'll talk about it later!"

After a brief moment of thought, Ren Yidao completely set his mind at ease and, like everyone else, looked toward the Sword Casting Hut Sect Master who was preparing to announce the next developments, only to have his gaze meet the Sect Master's eyes as he looked over.

?

Ren Yidao was stunned for a moment, then immediately put on a fanatical expression of respect and admiration, gazing back deeply.

Gongye Dachang: "……"
