"What!? Fifth Stage of the Pure Core Realm!?" Jiang Hong and Lei Ping were dumbfounded. They stared at Feng Chang in shock and disbelief, then hurriedly used their spiritual sense to confirm it. The moment they sensed her cultivation, their eyes lit up with relief and joy.
'Heavens, she really broke through!' Jiang Hong clenched his fists, a wave of relief washing over him. If Feng Chang hadn't advanced, no one would've been able to stop this so-called Number 9 from destroying the sect. The mere thought that the Yang-Yin Sect could have been wiped out under his leadership filled him with dread. Even if no one else blamed him, he would have been consumed by guilt if the sect got destroyed under his watch and would end his life with his own hands.
"Who exactly are you? Why have I never heard of you before?" Number 9 asked cautiously, narrowing his eyes at Feng Chang.
