Over here, Shangguan Ji and others were shocked at the rapid progress of Yan Chuan's cultivation.
Meanwhile, Fu Huan was puzzled by Yan Chuan's low cultivation realm—
"Innate Second Layer?"
"This person couldn't possibly pose a threat to Fu Manduo."
"But he has a junior apprentice whose strength is unknown, and there's also the Iron-Armed Monkey King who is newly Innate."
"Could the two of them and a beast possibly surround and kill Fu Manduo?"
Fu Huan thought for a moment, still feeling it was impossible.
But there was something suspicious—
He had investigated all the way along the Kongsang River, took a detour in Nanyue Lake but couldn't find Yan Chuan's junior apprentice Chen Ze, nor the recently Dao-proven Iron-Armed Monkey King.
One person, one monkey, vanished into thin air.
There was definitely something strange about this.
As for Yan Chuan, who openly remained—
"Really unrelated?"
"Could he be hiding his strength?"
"Or could it be—"
