Chapter 238: Falling God Peak's Grandmaster
"How old is this Eighth Prince?" Sikong Xuan asked casually.
The hundred-man captain who had brought the message thought for a moment, then said hesitantly, "Roughly... twenty."
At those words, the white-haired Sikong Xuan could not help but frown.
And at that moment, another golden flame rose from the direction of Hundred Refinements City, lighting up the distant sky with sudden brilliance.
Sikong Xuan looked up, and a look of bewilderment and surprise surfaced in his clouded eyes, saying, "According to what Qiwen wrote, the Eighth Prince defeated Hundred Refinements Peak's Peak Master Zheng Yunfeng in a single move. And that was only a short while ago. Who from Falling God Peak has been taken down now?"
Yet how could the hundred-man captain before him answer such a question? He too was staring blankly at the brilliant golden light in the sky.
To be honest, while the story of the false prince had long since spread through every prefecture, the acknowledgment of this Eighth Prince had happened only recently, and those with limited access to news might not have heard of it at all.
He himself had learned of it from overhearing colleagues chatting. And yet this prince, who had existed without any presence or footing in anyone's awareness, had gone alone to Hundred Refinements City and had taken down a Peak Master in a single move, one who had apparently been a headache even for the Commander.
At that moment he simply felt as though none of it was real, as though he were dreaming.
