I Became the Devil Queen's Heart Demon novel Chapter 1149

Zi Lianji stood quietly to the side, his head lowered, with a somewhat somber expression, lost in thought.

"Sigh..."

Zi Wenzhong saw this and secretly sighed.

As a father, no one understood his son better than he did.

Zi Lianji managed to reach the third position on the Cloud Top Ranking; his talent was indisputable, among the top tier in Jiu Zhou. The key was, he was diligent, training day and night without rest. Even the Sect Leader once said personally: "In less than two cycles, Lianji should become the foremost in Martial Arts."

But he ended up encountering the freak, Chen Mo.

In the Cangyun Mountain Secret Realm, Chen Mo transcended a major realm and severely wounded him with one strike, shattering his pride and self-respect along with it.

Furthermore, the Fairy Qingxuan, whom he had admired for a long time, also fell into Chen Mo's embrace, causing Zi Lianji's Dao Heart to break, nearly leaving him unable to recover until Huo Wuya and Zi Wenzhong took turns counseling him out of the gloom.

Since then, Zi Lianji set his life's goal to defeat Chen Mo.

Yet, within just a few short months, Chen Mo broke through to the Third-Level of Celestial Human Realm, becoming the youngest Grandmaster of the Great Yuan!

At the same time, he also absorbed the extreme Sword Intent of the Sword Washing Pool and consolidated his Dao Seal, just one step away from the Second-Level!

It's undeniable that they were no longer on the same level anymore. Even if Zi Lianji had a miraculous fortune, it would be difficult to even see Chen Mo's back!

However, Zi Wenzhong naturally couldn't voice these thoughts. What Zi Lianji needed most now was confidence.

He put down his teacup, cleared his throat, and said, "Lianji, you don't need to think too much. The Sect Master gave Chen Mo the true understanding of Martial Arts merely to deal with Consort Yu."

"That is the Ultimate Venerable's insights; how could it be so easily comprehended?"

"Chen Mo cannot stay on Martial Saint Mountain forever. Now, you're just one step away from breaking through to the Third Grade, and with the Sect Master's personal guidance, you might surpass Chen Mo in the future... Cough, cough, at least in terms of Martial Arts attainment, you definitely won't lose to him!"

Hearing this, Zi Lianji's expression softened a bit, nodding, "I will work hard, not to surpass others, but to be stronger than the self of yesterday."

Zi Wenzhong smiled with satisfaction, "With this thought, your father is at ease."

Zi Lianji inquired, "Father, have you been feeling better?"

"Minor injuries, nothing serious," Zi Wenzhong waved his hand.

He was first charred inside and out by Chen Mo, then sent flying with a resentful palm strike from the Daoist Venerable, which did hurt his muscles and bones somewhat, but fortunately, it didn't harm his foundation; he would recover after some rest.

Though, thanks to the Sect Master's mediation, the matters were cleared up and the conflicts resolved, but thinking of being trampled in front of many disciples by a young boy did leave him a bit sullen.

"Hmph, I just underestimated him."

"If there was a next time, I would make sure he pays dearly..."

At that moment, a commotion suddenly came from outside.

Zi Wenzhong, perceiving something, furrowed his brows and flash-stepped out of the main hall.

Zi Lianji realized and hurriedly followed along.

The disciples gathered on the square, all looking up towards Lingxiao Peak.

"Look over there, is that a heavenly phenomenon?"

"Why is there someone there, looks like... Mr. Chen?"

A mass of dark clouds lay over the peak, and against that gloomy backdrop, a tall figure hovered in mid-air, his robes billowing noisily.

"Chen Mo?" Zi Wenzhong's figure materialized, and upon seeing this scene, his brow furrowed, "What kind of trick is this kid up to now?"

Just then, Chen Mo suddenly moved.

His figure twisted, raising his right hand, slowly punching towards the direction of Qiyun Peak.

?!

In Zi Wenzhong's heart, a sense of alarm suddenly surged!

His keen Spiritual Sense allowed him to react immediately, without any hesitation, his sleeve billowed, and the Dharma Image unfolded, transforming into a light shield that enveloped the above.

Boom!

The next moment, it was as if thunder roared beside their ears!

An invisible force instantly tore through the light shield, without losing momentum, blasting Zi Wenzhong himself away!

Simultaneously, below, Qiyun Peak trembled violently, like thunder bounding through ten thousand valleys, reverberating loudly in the ears, and the thousand-zhang-high peak that soared into the clouds was severed at the waist, its rocky face ripping apart, toppling backward!

On the square, people swayed uncontrollably, unable to stand, expressions filled with horror.

"I must have seen wrong... Did Mr. Chen really shatter Qiyun Peak with a single punch?!"

"Run, run quickly!"

Someone regained their wits, attempting to fly and flee for their lives, but the fierce wind generated by the punch bore down on them, pinning them securely to the ground, leaving them to plummet together with the collapsing mountain mass!
