As he said that, Yun Ting glanced at Beiming Xue from the corner of his eye, as though he wanted to prove that he was not afraid of Su Zimo at all.
However, Beiming Xue lowered her gaze and ignored him.
Yun Ting coughed gently and puffed out his chest, saying proudly, “Brother Su, if you don’t believe me, we’ll head to a secret place to fight another day. You can do whatever you want and we’ll fight to our hearts’ content without holding back!”
“Another day?”
Su Zimo smiled without saying anything.
He believed that given Yun Ting’s pride, he would not be afraid of him just because he had lost to him twice.
But now, the difference between the two of them was even greater than back at the Divine Firmament Immortal Meet!
Yun Ting had indeed improved in the Sword Dao.
However, his Dao Fruit condensed the profoundness of high-grade cultivation techniques of immortals, Buddhas, fiends and demons. It even contained Dharmic Daos of a few Taboo Mystic Cla.s.sics and he attracted the Nine of Nine Heavenly Tribulation before advancing to the Perfected One realm.
Even without using blood qi, the body of a Grade 12 Creation Green Lotus could take on a Nine Tribulations Pure Yang Spirit Treasure head-on!
To be precise, his Green Lotus True Body was a Nine Tribulations Pure Yang Spirit Treasure in itself.
Furthermore, he was now in mastery of a few quasi-peerless divine powers.
Right now, Su Zimo might only need to use 50% of his strength to suppress Yun Ting!
After he met with the calamity this time round, he made a trip to the Death’s Door and Yellow Springs Road of the Netherworld and revived in the Emperor’s Tomb. His gains were way too great!
Until now, he had yet to fully digest and absorb everything.
Currently, he had already removed the two curses in his body and was refining the energy that he had absorbed from the Emperor’s Tomb.
The energy was significant enough. Once he refined it all, he would be able to break through and advance another level to reach the Celestial Being Perfected One realm!
The gap between him and Yun Ting would only increase.
Back then, Su Zimo even regarded Yun Ting as his greatest opponent.
But now, his ambitions were much greater. He was aiming for the ten thousand races and trichiliocosm, looking down on both past and present!
“What’s wrong?”
When Yun Ting saw that Su Zimo was only smiling without saying anything, he could not help but raise his brows and ask provocatively, “Are you afraid?”
Su Zimo smiled gently. “If you want to find an opponent to sharpen your Sword Dao, there’s indeed a suitable person who is beside me right now.”
“Who?”
Yun Ting asked.
Su Zimo looked at Beiming Xue who was not far away.
“Her?”
Yun Ting could not believe it.
Beiming Xue’s talent in the Sword Dao was indeed not bad. However, she cultivated that Martial Dao and was trapped in the Heaven Essence realm. She could not even condense a Dao Fruit and was of no threat to him at all.
There was a huge gap between the two of them!
Su Zimo said, “Beiming is my eldest disciple. Of course, I’m not talking about now. When she becomes a Perfected Immortal, you guys can spar.”
“That’s ridiculous!”
Yun Ting rolled his eyes. “Among those of the same cultivation realm, apart from you, who else can be my match?”
“Furthermore, Su Zimo, you’re looking down on me way too much! Although I view you as my greatest opponent, you’re trying to send me away with a mere disciple of yours! I-I…”
Before Yun Ting could finish, he suddenly felt a chill.
Not far away, Beiming Xue was looking at him with a calm expression and a cold gaze.
“I, I…”
Yun Ting hesitated for a moment and smiled awkwardly. “Junior Sister Beiming, it’s naturally not that I look down on you. However, our cultivation realms are different now and we can’t spar.”
“If you have any questions about the Sword Dao later on, you can look for me. Su Zimo definitely can’t compare to me in terms of the Sword Dao!”
Beiming Xue clenched her fists slowly and remained silent. She merely looked at Yun Ting deeply before getting up and walking out.
“Junior Sister Beiming, where are you going?”
Yun Ting asked instinctively.
Beiming Xue had an indifferent expression and left the cave abode without even looking at Yun Ting.
“Um…”
Yun Ting turned back to look at Su Zimo and asked, “Did Junior Sister Beiming get angry? I didn’t even say anything?”
Su Zimo smiled. “She’s always been like this. It might not be targeted at you.”
“In that case, where is she going?”
Yun Ting asked again.
Su Zimo said in a deep voice, “Probably to cultivate.”
Actually, he could vaguely guess some of Beiming Xue’s thoughts.
Beiming Xue probably wanted to cultivate faster and strive to advance to the True Martial realm as soon as possible to condense the True Martial Dao Body to fight Yun Ting.
For some unknown reason, Su Zimo could vaguely sense that Beiming Xue seemed to be extremely hostile towards Yun Ting.
This should be the first time the two of them met. Although Yun Ting was a little talkative, he should not have offended Beiming Xue in any way.
“Perhaps I’m imagining things.”
Su Zimo shook his head.
Right then, Yun Ting suddenly leaned over and rubbed his palms with a hesitant expression. “Brother Su, does your eldest disciple have a Dao companion?”
“No.”
Su Zimo looked at the infatuated and sheepish Yun Ting with a fake smile. It was clear that he had seen through Yun Ting’s thoughts.
Sensing Su Zimo’s gaze, Yun Ting knew that he could not hide it and no longer beat the bush. “Brother Su, I’ve long seen through things between you and my sister. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely support you guys with all my might!”
“I’ve been obsessed with the Sword Dao all these years and have never had a Dao companion. Your eldest disciple is single as well. Why don’t you help matchmake us?”
At that point, Yun Ting seemed to have suddenly thought of something and added hurriedly, “However, there’s one thing. The seniority between the two of us can’t change even after I become Dao companions with her!”
“What are you thinking? There’s nothing between me and Yun Zhu.”
Su Zimo was exasperated. “As for what you said, it depends on Beiming’s feelings. I won’t interfere with her.”
“That’s nothing.”
Yun Ting said, “You’re her master. It’s easy for you to arrange a marriage for her.”
When Su Zimo heard that, he said sternly, “No matter who it is, be it her master or parents, no one can decide her fate and life!”
“Beiming isn’t a three-year-old child. She has her own choice.”
In the ideology of Yun Ting and most of the others, they were still bound to the familial ties of letting parents make decisions for them.
However, Su Zimo’s growth experience was different from others.
He was unwilling to impose his will on others.
When Yun Ting saw how serious Su Zimo was, he changed his words and asked, “In that case, you won’t stop me from courting her?”
Su Zimo nodded.
Yun Ting beamed. “That’s simple. If Junior Sister Beiming enters the Perfected One realm, she can come spar with me.”
Yun Ting suddenly changed his mind and agreed.
In his opinion, when the two of them fought, he would subdue Beiming Xue with the supreme Sword Dao and reveal his peerless bearing. How could she not fall for him at that time?
It did not matter even if Beiming Xue refused to admit defeat for the first time.
If she was indignant, she would look for him to fight a second or third time.
As time pa.s.sed, the two of them would interact with one another for longer and longer. How could he not stand a chance by then?
If Beiming Xue was still uninterested in him at that time…
He would release his ultimate move and challenge Su Zimo.
As long as he defeated Su Zimo, it would be enough to shock Beiming Xue immensely!
