Chapter 1532: Chapter 943: Entering the Game, Part 3

The differences between one who opens their orifices and another are vastly different.

“Su Meng?”

Tao Yu raised his eyebrows, unexpectedly encountering the lone ranger he had originally intended to capture.

“Did he cooperate with the Six Gates?”

“The Six Gates often invite people from the Jianghu for assistance; this is quite normal.”

Lan Ke explained, knowing that the young master Hong and Green Bird before him had only recently begun their journey in the Jianghu, and might not be familiar with such common knowledge.

“Oh, I hope I’ll have a chance to meet him.”

Tao Yu nodded, without committing himself.

This guy has advanced so quickly without a sect; perhaps he’s secretly joined the Six Gates, becoming a hound of the court.

“Who knows, he might even be a reincarnator, doing side jobs for the Six Paths.”

Having encountered three reincarnators just yesterday, Tao Yu was momentarily unsure about the actual proportion of reincarnators in this world.

Is it really that high…?

…

By evening, Xingyun Manor was already brightly lit and decorated. Many young heroes who were journeying had gathered nearby, whispering as if eager to catch a glimpse of stars.

“I heard that besides the few young heroes invited by He Jiu, there are also some local veterans and heroes.”

“Both the Crown Prince and Prince Jin will be there.”

“I really want to go in and take a look.”

“Look, that’s the ’Mad Blade’ Su Meng! Without the support of a sect, he’s come this far, truly a role model for us all.”

“Ah, look at that lady, she’s so beautiful.”

“Lecher, don’t be so rude, but… she really is gorgeous.”

“The young hero beside her is also very handsome. I know the one accompanying them, it’s ’Sword in Hand’ Lan Ke, a long-time Nine Orifices expert, formerly on the Human List. His current strength probably rivals the top ten on the list.”

“Are these two younger ones he’s brought in?”

“…”

No matter the whispers outside, inside Xingyun Manor it remained peaceful and harmonious.

Though he brought two people in, Lan Ke was scrutinized by Xingyun Manor’s servant, yet they didn’t say much, allowing their entry smoothly.

“Usually, this wouldn’t be so conspicuous, but with Elder Gong and Director Xiong… sigh~”

After bringing them in, Lan Ke appeared a bit embarrassed.

Although invited as a former Human List expert, bringing two extras to the scene made for a noticeable entourage, second only to the Crown Prince and Prince Jin.

It’s like attending a wedding banquet, gifting a hundred in festive tokens, yet bringing two or three people to cover your returns.

But since he had already promised, he could only brace himself and proceed.

“No worries, I’m just here to see and learn.”

Although seated in a more secluded area, Tao Yu was indifferent, curiously looking around.

He had learned from Sikong Tu about a way to instantly achieve an Outer Realm breakthrough called ’Step into Heaven.’

Normally it requires reaching the half-step Outer Realm and then patiently polishing to break through, but some exceptionally talented entities could choose to forcefully break through from Nine Orifices, relying on profound accumulation to instantly advance to the Outer Realm.

Such a method not only ensures a solid foundation but also allows for rapid subsequent breakthroughs in the Outer Realm.

Originally, Tao Yu wondered what this Human List top warrior intended. Now seeing it, he instantly understood; it was likely a challenge to other Human List talents, even combining their forces to pressure for breakthroughs.

Meanwhile, Tao Yu’s gaze settled on a robust, yet handsome, sword-carrying man.

Carrying both sword and saber, in tight outfit, though not as daunting as initially estimated, he exuded a solid cross-training aura.

Moreover…

He also bore the trace of the Six Paths, with a hint of cultivation from the Yuxu vein…

A reincarnator…

“So he is the Mad Blade Su Meng?”

“Indeed…”

——

“Hmm?”

Meng Qi was also observing the newcomers, especially since he had previously worked with Lan Ke when hunting down the old Zhongtou, and now noticed Tao Yu keenly observing him.

The two following Lan Ke were remarkably attractive, each carrying a unique charm different from the ordinary.

As the rapidly advancing, highly sought-after sixth on the Human List, Meng Qi was accustomed to attention from others.

However, for some reason, under this gaze, an inner voice brought him a slight sense of unease.

Having chosen Yuanshi Tianzun at the Immortal Trace, and possessing the Primordial Gold Seal and Jade Void Divine Calculation, though not as calculating as the great mystic Wang, Meng Qi wouldn’t ignore his instincts.

These two likely harbor some issues…

However, soon after, the arrived Prince Jin, Zhao Yi, approached Meng Qi with a smile.

“Young Hero Su, you saved my life once without claiming credit or seeking gains. Truly the embodiment of a hero’s spirit.”

“Prince Jin is too kind.”

Meng Qi sensed the dissatisfaction and jealousy from some invited noble family scions but paid them no mind.

Not being envied is a sign of mediocrity, and besides a few, these noble family scions haven’t been sharpened by the Jianghu and indeed mostly lack aptitude.

Now Meng Qi subtly felt a transformation, far different from when he first crossed over.

“I heard Young Hero Su slew a bloodsucking demon. Can you tell us more about it?”

“I was previously invited by the Six Gates to help encircle some troublemaking cultists. Coincidentally, I encountered one I could handle. I heard an Outer Realm devil also appeared, but I was merely lucky.”
