Dual Cultivation: A Carefree Journey Through Another World, the Empress Falls into My Hands

Hearing Chu Yunfan's words, Zhang San felt both excited and ashamed.

What's exciting is that even though Chu Yunfan's cultivation has greatly increased, he hasn't forgotten their friendship and has given him such a precious gift.

As for the shame, it was naturally because Zhang San felt that his cultivation was too slow and that he was holding Chu Yunfan back.

Chu Yunfan, of course, noticed the change in Zhang San's expression, and immediately spoke up to comfort him:

"Zhang San, you don't need to overthink it."

The reason my cultivation level has improved so quickly is not only due to talent, but also largely due to opportunities and luck.

Your cultivation speed is already quite fast!

Chu Yunfan was absolutely right. Zhang San was able to raise his cultivation level from the fifth stage of the initial Martial Realm to the late stage of the Martial Master Realm in just over a year.

This speed is already much faster than many cultivation geniuses outside.

It's just that there are too many geniuses in the Qingyun Sword Sect, and everyone is so fast, so it's hard to tell.

Hearing Chu Yunfan's words of comfort, Zhang San quickly understood this point and replied solemnly:

"Brother Chu, I understand everything you're saying!"

Don't worry, I will definitely work harder in my training from now on and I will never hold you back again!

Hearing Zhang San's answer, Chu Yunfan nodded in satisfaction, and then said:

“Cultivation is useless if you just stay in the sect and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.”

You have to go out and explore more to encounter opportunities!

"Yes, Zhang San understands!"

Zhang San nodded vigorously, then a look of doubt appeared on his face as he asked:

"By the way, Brother Chu, don't you have a grudge against Wang Tianba?"

Why did you tell him that you had broken through to the late stage of the Martial Grandmaster realm?

"This way, you've exposed your strength, making it easier for him to deal with you."

Upon hearing Zhang San's question, Chu Yunfan did not answer directly, but instead chuckled softly:

"Hmph! I'd rather he were the one to deal with me!"

To be honest, at first, Chu Yunfan subconsciously thought that he could not kill Wang Tianba himself due to the restrictions of the sect rules.

Therefore, he never thought of doing that; he always wanted to use others to get rid of Wang Tianba.

However, just before Chu Yunfan went to find Zhang San, he suddenly remembered something.

That is, within the Qingyun Sword Sect, if there are irreconcilable conflicts among disciples, they can apply for a life-or-death battle.

In a life-or-death battle, Chu Yunfan could kill Wang Tianba without any hesitation.

However, when Chu Yunfan thought of this...

His cultivation level has reached the late stage of Martial Grandmaster.

As far as he knew, Wang Tianba was only at the mid-stage of the Martial Sect realm.

According to the rules of the Qingyun Sword Sect, disciples with higher cultivation levels cannot issue life-or-death challenges to disciples with lower cultivation levels; the reverse is true.

Therefore, Chu Yunfan had no choice but to come up with this idea.

That was to pass on the news of his breakthrough to the late stage of the Martial Grandmaster realm to Wang Tianba.

In this way, Wang Tianba will definitely be shocked by his amazing cultivation speed.

Because when he first joined the sect, he was just a nobody at the third stage of the Martial Initial Realm, while Wang Tianba was a powerful expert at the early stage of the Martial Grandmaster Realm.

However, more than a year later, he actually surpassed Wang Tianba and was the first to raise his cultivation to the late stage of Martial Sect.

If this trend continues, the gap in cultivation level between Wang Tianba and him will only widen over time.

Until one day, a single sentence from him could decide Wang Tianba's life or death.

At that point, Wang Tianba would have no choice but to die.

Wang Tianba has only one way to get out of this situation.

That means striking first and eliminating Chu Yunfan.

However, the Wang family has been destroyed, and the Heavenly Slaughter Organization has given up on assassinating Chu Yunfan.

Not only that, the assassins from the Heavenly Slaughter Organization were also keeping watch outside the Azure Cloud Sword Sect at all times, waiting for Wang Tianba to appear so they could take his head.

Therefore, under these circumstances, Wang Tianba had only one option if he wanted to eliminate Chu Yunfan.

That is to take advantage of the fact that Chu Yunfan has just broken through and is not yet proficient in his own strength and martial arts skills, and launch a life-or-death battle against Chu Yunfan.

However, Chu Yunfan kept all of this to himself and naturally wouldn't say it out loud.

Even Zhang San cannot be told, lest it be leaked.

Therefore, although Chu Yunfan still saw Zhang San with a puzzled expression, he did not continue to explain, but simply instructed:

"I can't say why I did this."

In short, just do as I say and get things done.

You don't need to worry about the rest!

Upon hearing Chu Yunfan's answer, Zhang San was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't ask any further questions. Instead, he nodded and assured him:

"Brother Chu, you can rest assured that this matter is in my hands!"

"There's no time to lose, I'll get right to it. Farewell, Brother Chu!"

After saying this, Zhang San bowed to Chu Yunfan and walked out of the cave.

To be honest, although Zhang San's talent for cultivation was not as good as Chu Yunfan's, his ability to make friends and gather information was first-rate.

Chu Yunfan was well aware of this, which is why he entrusted the matter to Zhang San with complete peace of mind, while he himself stayed in the cave to await a reply.

Of course, Chu Yunfan wasn't idle in the cave. He sat cross-legged, his consciousness gradually sinking into his mind. He then found the Wind Sword Intent that he had just mastered and began to familiarize himself with its wonderful uses.

Meanwhile, under Zhang San's manipulation, Wang Tianba, who was desperately cultivating in preparation for avenging the Wang family, soon received news that Chu Yunfan had broken through to the late stage of the Martial Grandmaster realm.

As a result, he was so frightened during his cultivation that he almost went into a state of demonic possession.

"Just what kind of monster is this kid?"

The Heavenly Killing Organization failed to kill him in several assassination attempts; instead, he grew stronger and stronger.

If this continues, won't I be completely at his mercy from now on?

At this moment, Wang Tianba completely forgot about avenging the Wang family, and he couldn't even concentrate on cultivation. His mind was filled with the scene of Chu Yunfan's cultivation level rising rapidly and then annihilating him.

"No, this can't go on. This menace, Chu Yunfan, must be dealt with as soon as possible!"

A fierce glint flashed in Wang Tianba's eyes, and he walked out of the cave and arrived at the location of the Inner Sect's Enforcement Hall.

"Disciple Wang Tianba has a blood feud with Chu Yunfan, a disciple of Tianji Peak, and hereby requests to fight him to the death!"

Wang Tianba's resolute voice echoed in the silent Hall of Law Enforcement.

Soon, a response came.

"After confirmation by the Enforcement Hall, Chu Yunfan has reached the late stage of the Martial Sect realm and is authorized to initiate a life-or-death battle."

The contract for the life-or-death battle has been delivered to Chu Yunfan's cave by the Enforcement Hall. Please wait a moment!

A life-or-death battle is not something Wang Tianba can decide alone; Chu Yunfan's consent is also required.

That's why the Enforcement Hall gave that answer.
