Chapter 1292: Chapter 287: Chong Er Makes the Rankings (Part 3)

In Gu Xingwan’s commanding eyes, a trace of shock suddenly appeared. However, she quickly reacted, ready to strike down the Sword Momentum ahead of time. Although her Sword Momentum had not reached its peak, it was still stronger compared to Li Hao’s hasty move!

Just as her wrist was about to rise, time seemed to slow down by a beat. She watched helplessly as her body seemed not to have caught up with her consciousness. At that moment, her hand had not lifted yet, and Li Hao’s fingers were clenched together, a tiny condensed sword aura at his fingertips.

It was precisely the Green Heaven Immortal Technique casually cast earlier.

At this moment, just like before, it lightly swept before her eyes, brushing past a strand of hair beside her cheek. Then, his fingers pinched, and his body suddenly disappeared, returning to his original place.

All this happened in an instant. As Gu Xingwan’s wrist rose, she already saw Li Hao standing in front of Gu Changming, holding the strand of hair from beside her cheek between his fingertips, gesturing with a raised hand.

Gu Xingwan stood in place, stunned.

The sword aura she raised flickered like a bright moon but refused to unleash. The surrounding temperature seemed frozen but slowly melted away, and the powerful Sword Momentum gradually weakened until it slowly dissipated…

By the arched bridge, only the sound of flowing water remained, silent and still.

Not only was Gu Xingwan in a daze, but a gleam also flashed in Gu Changming’s eyes as he deeply observed the young man beside him.

In the recent engagement, compared to Gu Xingwan’s grand momentum, Li Hao’s move was extremely decisive, yet its intricacy was somewhat terrifying.

Aside from the Space Origin, he had also mastered considerable Time Origin power.

The strongest two powers of the Nine Orders combined in one; his granddaughter’s defeat was not unjustified.

“You…”

After a while, Gu Xingwan finally came to her senses. This time, her gaze at Li Hao had completely changed.

She had lost; she couldn’t believe she had lost, and so utterly at that.

If it were a life-or-death struggle, her head would have already been severed.

Although she could Blood Rebirth, reaching this Realm meant that the power contained within the attack was by no means simple, capable of completely limiting regeneration and even severely damaging the Primordial Spirit!

Li Hao lifted the hair he held with his fingertips and then puckered his lips and blew, watching the hair drift forward before gently falling on the bluestone slab. He turned to Gu Changming and said:

“Elder Gu, if there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”

Gu Changming snapped back to reality and quickly said, “Stay and have a meal with us?”

“A meal?”

Li Hao slightly raised his brow, his about-to-step foot paused in mid-air.

Gu Xingwan had come to her senses. She watched the young man, appearing so relaxed and casual, with a complicated expression. Although she still had some cards left unplayed, and her Heavenly Eye wasn’t yet opened, nonetheless, a loss is a loss.

Just as she was about to open her mouth to inquire about the Immortal Technique Li Hao had just used, a dazzling light suddenly shone down from above.

She saw a vast silhouette stretching across an unknown distance, like a painting unfolding—it was the Immortal Rankings!

This Immortal Rankings list, like golden waves, spread across the sky. Countless people throughout the city looked up in astonishment.

The appearance of the Immortal Rankings indicated someone had ascended.

However, given that the fierce battle had just ended, with Immortal achievements likely just calculated, someone ascending was not surprising.

“I wonder who it is, another notable figure ascends the Immortal Rankings this time.”

“Look, the golden light is splitting in the middle. This is a newcomer!”

“Who is it, ranked as high as in the fifties on their first entry into the Immortal Rankings?!”

Countless people across the city halted, looking up in shock.

Gu Xingwan also looked up. She had also slain an Ancient Demon on the frontier, but Gu Changming, worried for her safety, did not let her go to the front lines. However, she had hunted down many Ancient Demons, especially with Gu Changming using his authority to have the Immortal Army pass on information about solitary Ancient Demons, giving her the relatively safe opportunity for solo hunts and practical combat experience, thereby accumulating significant Immortal achievements.

She was also ranked within the top 100 of the Immortal Rankings, positioned at 95, with more than five hundred thousand Immortal achievements!

Now, as the golden light faded, she suddenly saw that the name presented was remarkably simple in stroke.

Chong Er!
