If one fails their breakthrough, they would enter the Semi-Saint rank and would be unable to cultivate anymore . However, with the help of a pill, a cultivator could emerge from the Semi-Saint rank! The only thing was, pills like these were very valuable . They were very hard to find even ten thousand years ago .
Gu Ruoyun never thought that she would find this pill formula in the ruins . . .
The fire spiritual beast's eyes were filled with excitement . He stretched out his trembling claws and accepted the pill before swallowing it . A powerful force then erupted from his body with a bang, spreading throughout the Ancient Divine Pagoda .
A Martial Saint!
I can finally break through to the Martial Saint rank!
The fire spiritual beast was so excited that he could not speak . He stared gratefully at Gu Ruoyun as his eyes filled with admiration .
"It seems that this pill really can help a Semi-Saint to breakthrough . " Gu Ruoyun thought for a moment before she said, "Now, you better consolidate the powers you've obtained after your breakthrough . Your powers are a little unstable because you had used a pill to promote yourself to become a Martial Saint . You'll need a few days to consolidate it . "
The fire spiritual beast quickly nodded his head, clearly still overjoyed .
Gu Ruoyun took one last look at the fire spiritual beast before she left the Ancient Divine Pagoda . . .
. . .
At Wind City .
This was the only way into Wind Valley .
A flash of red robes appeared in Wind City . There was a grim air on the man's handsome features . His straight brows were slanted towards his temples and the corner of his thin lips contained a cold firmness . He then walked into Wind City without further hesitation .
Once he stepped into the city, he was spotted by the guards who were at the gate . They immediately rushed to inform Feng Xiaoxiao .
"Is this true?"
Feng Xiaoxiao instantly rose to her feet . Her eyes were filled with excitement as her delicate, pretty, and dignified face flushed red . "Is Grand Lord Hong Lian really here?"
"Reporting to Eldest Lady, we have indeed spotted Grand Lord Hong Lian's arrival . That's why we've come back here to inform you . "
The guard joined his fists as he replied with reverence .
"Alright, you can leave . " Feng Xiaoxiao waved her hand as she held back the excitement in her heart . She then said, "Also, find out the name of the guest house that Grand Lord Hong Lian is staying in . I will go look for him shortly after this . . . "
"Yes, Eldest Lady . "
After receiving his orders, the guard excused himself .
In a room at the guest house, the red-robed man was sitting with his legs crossed in meditation . A gentle breeze drifted into the room which made his red robes flutter in the wind .
Knock, knock, knock!
Someone knocked on the door and the red-robed man slowly opened his eyes . A peculiar light then flashed in his grim gaze .
"Who is it?"
His voice was low and hoarse but its impact was like a hammer, slamming fiercely into the woman's heart even though she was outside the door .
The woman's heart shivered as she stretched her hand out towards the room's door and gently pushed the door open . At that moment, the face which had haunted her thoughts day and night appeared within her sights .
It's him!
Grand Lord Hong Lian was indeed the man she had met before . However, she never thought that man would be him . Otherwise, she would have gone to the Red Lotus Territory to look for him .
"Grand Lord Hong Lian . " She took a deep breath and tried to restrain her rapidly beating heart . She then walked towards the red-robed man with a comforting smile on her pretty and dignified face . "I am the Eldest Lady of Wind Valley, Feng Xiaoxiao . I've come here specially to welcome you, Grand Lord Hong Lian . I hope you don't mind, Grand Lord Hong Lian . "
