Chapter 993: His State Of Mind Is Unparalleled Thr

Whoosh!

A single sentence caused both of them to widen their eyes in shock. Bai Piaopiao's heart was even more turbulent, and she was utterly stunned, her beautiful face pale with disbelief!

The truth was actually like this!

It turned out that her full-force attack had been blocked not because her foundation was unstable and she couldn't unleash the full power of a Saint, but because Yi Feng himself was already at the Saint level!

Watching Su Jie's unprecedented solemn expression, Bai Piaopiao was so shocked that she lightly covered her red lips with her hand.

This was the first time she had ever seen Su Jie so serious, even speaking directly to a man with such gravity. Hearing Su Jie's words now, all her doubts were resolved. Seeing Yi Feng unharmed and possessing such immense power, tears welled up in Bai Piaopiao's eyes.

Complex emotions intertwined, and Bai Piaopiao and Su Jie almost simultaneously turned their attention to Yi Feng!

But Yi Feng was only growing more confused.

"No way..."

Before he could finish speaking.

Su Jie interrupted, leaving no room for further argument!

"There's no need to hide your cultivation level anymore. This sword strike of mine contains the supreme Dao of Sword Intent. Even an ordinary Saint would struggle to withstand it. If you weren't at the Saint level, you would have turned to ashes by now."

Her deep voice resonated, making the surroundings so quiet you could hear a pin drop!

The brief shock was like a tidal wave, surging endlessly in the hearts of the three, and it made Bai Piaopiao even more moved. She finally relaxed completely, letting out a long sigh of relief.

"Phew... This is really great. So your cultivation is already so advanced, even Sister Su praises you. That Gu Qingcheng is definitely no match for you. It seems there's no need to worry anymore!"

"Indeed, with his cultivation, Gu Qingcheng is no match for him."

Watching the two women speak with certainty, their faces gradually breaking into smiles, Yi Feng was utterly dumbfounded.

The sky had fallen!

He was actually a Saint? This couldn't be a joke, right?

All this time, he had never considered such a possibility. Even just now, he had thought it was because Bai Piaopiao's foundation was unstable and that turtle shell had played a role. He never imagined that he was already at the Saint level!

This...!

Countless alpacas galloped through Yi Feng's mind, an endless, uncountable herd!

No wonder all his attempts to die had failed. So many people he had thought were overrated, even the Sect Master of the Moon Viewing Sect, who seemed like a complete fraud, were actually no match for him. The truth was that he had been underestimating his own strength all along!

Damn it!

Faced with this fact that brought joy to everyone, Yi Feng couldn't help but want to unleash a torrent of curses!

A Saint, already at the pinnacle of cultivation, and able to face Su Jie without defeat, must be ridiculously strong. With such cultivation, how could he possibly die? Even if he searched the entire Nine Realms, there probably wouldn't be anyone who could harm him, right?

This was an impossible task, a false proposition!

The damn system was playing him!

Recalling all his efforts over this period, Yi Feng felt an overwhelming sense of desolation. Regret and helplessness echoed in his heart, and he couldn't help but want to kill and then violate the system!

Everything felt like a fleeting cloud. Yi Feng suddenly felt an immense loneliness, completely sinking into self-isolation.

"Miss Bai, Miss Su, thank you so much for today. I feel a bit tired and will take my leave to rest. I'll thank you properly tomorrow..."

With a cupped fist salute, Yi Feng left in desolation.

He was tired.

Truly tired. That damn death-seeking system could just go to hell...

His sudden farewell left Bai Piaopiao and Su Jie stunned. Before they could react, Yi Feng had already left, his lonely figure stretching long under the moonlight, so desolate and heart-wrenching.

Bai Piaopiao, not understanding what had happened, could only send a message to her servants to take good care of him.

Watching Yi Feng leave, her heart was in turmoil. She didn't know what had gone wrong. In her anxiety, she could only hand over various holy medicines to Su Jie for her injuries.

Returning to her residence.

Only after Su Jie had finished healing did Bai Piaopiao sit down beside her, nervously asking, "Sister Su, what exactly happened? Why did Yi Feng seem so desolate? Did I do something wrong...?"

Su Jie was also drawn into deep thought by this question. With her experience as a top-tier cultivator, she found it hard to fully understand Yi Feng. After pondering for a long time, she still had no answer.

It wasn't until she recalled the origin of this incident that Su Jie's eyes showed a strange light, gradually gaining some understanding, and then she sighed softly in admiration.

"It's not your fault."

"Yi Feng's desolation comes from his own lofty aspirations. It's like how I once felt, a kind of loneliness at the peak."

"Loneliness at the peak?" Bai Piaopiao listened intently, her beautiful face showing confusion.

Seeing her friend's puzzled expression, Su Jie nodded seriously.

"Yes, loneliness at the peak."

"Think about it. With Yi Feng's cultivation and realm, how many in the world can compare? An ordinary person with such achievements would probably boast everywhere, but he remains incredibly low-key, neither arrogant nor impatient, and wholeheartedly pursues the supreme Dao. That's why even I had never heard of his name before."

"To reach the supreme realm, he is willing to abandon everything and start anew. Such a Dao heart is unparalleled through the ages. A person like this is truly exceptional and would never stop at merely being a Saint."

"No wonder you took a liking to him. Now I finally understand. He is indeed strong."

"Your judgment is not wrong!"

Bai Piaopiao listened, her face showing dawning comprehension. As she pondered, her eyes sparkled with admiration.

Yi Feng's temperament and character were both things she admired, but she hadn't realized that Yi Feng was so outstanding, even surpassing her. He had already cast aside the thoughts of the common people. Such a man, unable to find death and missing opportunities, would naturally feel desolate.

Listening to Su Jie's analysis, another top-tier expert, Bai Piaopiao finally understood the reason. As she grew even more fond of Yi Feng, she also secretly resolved to work even harder.

Seeing her friend's respectful gaze, she couldn't help but feel gratified and spoke up.

"Yes, in my heart..."

"He is the best!!!"

The words slipped out, but her cheeks flushed red. Bai Piaopiao didn't dare to praise him further, afraid her friend would tease her, but her heart was racing uncontrollably.

But she didn't know that Su Jie wouldn't mind at all.

Recalling that sword strike earlier, which had dissipated like mud sinking into the sea, Su Jie's long-dormant competitive spirit was ignited. Her eyes were filled with the fighting spirit of a top-tier expert as she gently stroked her holy sword, feeling its seemingly unwilling hum...

Su Jie turned back seriously, voicing her thoughts.

"Such a strong individual is rare. For thousands of years, I've been struggling to advance my sword Dao. I intend to have Yi Feng help me train. Would you be willing to help me invite him?"

Bai Piaopiao looked up in surprise, not expecting this.

"Could it be that you're reluctant?"

The casual question was calm, as if discussing some treasure, but it made Bai Piaopiao's ears turn red, and she stammered in defense.

"Wh-what! He's not mine or anything, why would I be reluctant? If you want to train, just ask him..."

With that.

Bai Piaopiao didn't dare to look up again, afraid her unusual expression would be noticed. But her heart was filled with sweetness, as if Yi Feng's recognition by Su Jie brought her immense joy.

Her flushed cheeks spoke louder than any words, soothing all her worries. The two women talked late into the night, their eyes filled with growing anticipation.

Unbeknownst to them.

Outside the window, the sun rose in the east.

A maddened roar exploded through the air, drowning out the faint light of dawn!

"Wretched woman! This Saint will tear you to pieces!!!"
