Chapter 234 Portrait

Although he didn't know Luo Fei's background, he did know a thing or two about the people around him.

Apart from the woman who always stayed by his side, there was no other special person by his side.

However, in his memory, Luo Fei didn't seem like the kind of person who would joke about these things.

Luo Fei put down her cup, looked up at Jiang Xun, leaned back in her chair, and smiled slightly. "If you knew everything, wouldn't the Underworld be in chaos?"

He then changed the subject, saying, "However, I have a portrait of my sister here. You'll know whether she is right or not once you see her."

With that, he raised his hand and a scroll appeared in his palm. He tossed it upwards, and the scroll flew towards Jiang Xun's face.

Jiang Xun caught the scroll, his eyes darkening. He gripped the scroll tighter and tighter, and after a moment of silence, he opened it. With just one glance, he could tell that the person in the painting was indeed Yueyue.

His expression hardened, his aura suddenly turned cold, and his gaze fell on Luo Fei. "Tell me, who is she to you?"

When Luo Fei saw Jiang Xun's expression, he raised an eyebrow, and his initial guess of 5 points became 10 points. That female cultivator must be his sister.

He scoffed, "Why should I tell you?"

As a man himself, he naturally saw that Jiang Xun clearly harbored ill intentions towards his sister.

Unfortunately, he was not good enough for his sister.

Jiang Xun stared at the people below with deep eyes for a few moments, then suddenly laughed, stood up abruptly, and strode out of the hall. "Since you won't talk, then see the guests out."

However, just as he was about to step out of the palace gate, a voice rang out behind him, "If I said that she was my sister, would you believe me?"

Jiang Xun paused, turned around and looked at him with a cold smile, "Don't you know how old you are? Do I have to remind you?"

Luo Fei was slightly taken aback; he was indeed much older than his sister.

Back then, his sister was the first blood relative he saw after hatching, but now he probably only has his sister left in the world.

Jiang Xun narrowed his long, narrow eyes and carefully examined Luo Fei. Seeing that Luo Fei's expression seemed genuine, he suddenly felt a strange emotion.

Could it be that Yueyue really is this guy's older sister?

But how could that be? Luo Fei is probably even older than him.

This idea was immediately rejected by Jiang Xun.

Yueyue is the daughter of the sect leader of the Tianxuan Sect in the cultivation world. Her bone age is obvious and cannot be faked. She could not possibly be this guy's sister.

Then there's only one possibility left: the "sister" that Luo Fei called out wasn't the "sister" he was thinking of.

Just like back when he was still Jiang Huai Xun, he called Yueyue Senior Sister.

Jiang Xun's eyes grew colder as he thought about it, and anger rose in his heart. How could Luo Fei be so blatant as to covet his people and even come to him to demand them back? Had he gone mad?

"Luo Fei, are you sure you want to say these things on my territory?"

Luo Fei was a little puzzled, but he didn't show it on his face. He just wanted to confirm if that person was his sister, so why did Jiang Xun look like he wanted to kill someone?

Could it be that he really has inappropriate feelings for his sister and mistakenly sees her as a rival in love?

If that's the case, he should test this man's sincerity for his sister's sake, lest she be deceived and lose her heart by a man outside because of her young age and lack of worldly experience.

Thinking of this, Luo Fei immediately looked at him provocatively, "What, you want to fight me? But if you do that, aren't you afraid that your sister will hate you even more if she finds out?"

The moment these words were spoken, the atmosphere around them turned cold, and a sense of impending doom filled the air!

"Luo Fei, you're shameless!"

"At such an advanced age, you're calling someone who's only recently started cultivating 'sister'?"

Luo Fei smiled faintly and straightened his clothes. "But she's willing for me to call her 'sister.' Jiang Xun, that's none of your business."

"She likes to hear it, so I will call her that."

"Jiang Xun, your sister wouldn't treat you like that, would she?"

The murderous intent permeating the air intensified.

Just as Jiang Xun's temples were throbbing and he couldn't help but take action, a hurried voice suddenly came from outside the palace, "Your Majesty, there is movement down there, but we are not sure what it is."

Jiang Xun's expression changed. He was about to tear through space to go to the Ninth Level of Hell when he caught a glimpse of the anxious look on Luo Fei's face. He paused, then took out a formation he had finally managed to obtain and threw it at Luo Fei.

He will protect Yueyue; she doesn't need anyone else to interfere, especially not this shameless guy.

Luo Fei was momentarily stunned upon hearing Lu Fuyue's news. Before he could react, Jiang Xun had already tricked him. In particular, the formation in front of him was no ordinary formation. It would probably take a lot of time to break it with just his cultivation level.

His expression immediately turned cold. Looking in the direction the man had left, he gritted his teeth and said, "Jiang Xun, release me now!"

However, the other party only left behind the words, "Stay put, you don't need to worry about my people," before tearing through space and leaving.

On the other side.

The lowest level of the nine levels of hell.

A large amount of ghostly energy transformed into spiritual energy, which was gradually compressed into drops of spiritual liquid within Lu Fuyue's dantian, reaching its maximum saturation point.

It's time for a breakthrough.

Lu Fuyue sat cross-legged on the stone bed, her eyes tightly closed. She slowly circulated her cultivation technique through its final major cycle, then guided her spiritual energy as if it were a sharp arrow, hurtling towards the barrier of the late-stage Nascent Soul realm. With a bang, it seemed as if something had cracked open, then surged in and finally filled the space.

His aura suddenly surged, reaching the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Then, in no time at all, the spiritual energy within his dantian reached its maximum saturation.

Lu Fuyue pressed on, transforming her spiritual energy into arrows once more, piercing through the barrier of the Nascent Soul stage. Time and again, her spiritual energy continuously went from depleted to full and saturated, and her aura steadily increased.

In the blink of an eye, he reached the peak of the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. However, the surging spiritual energy within his body did not stop and continued to rise, eventually stopping at the peak of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

Once everything had calmed down, Lu Fuyue slowly opened her eyes. She first used her cultivation technique to check her internal strength and, finding no instability in her foundation, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
