Chapter 132
"This Li Rulong... his cultivation grows thicker and more profound by the day. Could he be on the verge of breaking through to late-stage Dao Foundation? How is he advancing so quickly?"
"Could transforming into the demon race bring such benefits? No, that cannot be right. He now cultivates the [Bi Moon] path, and with the Azure Bird Tribe sweeping southward and sowing chaos across the land, it perfectly matches the [Bi Moon] imagery... his rapid progress in attainment makes sense after all..."
Fang Qing chatted casually with Qingling while secretly observing Li Rulong, unable to hide a trace of envy in his heart.
Qingling, for her part, was rather curious how Fang Qing had suddenly risen to become the foremost among the Five Bright Ones.
Unfortunately, Fang Qing kept steering the conversation elsewhere, leaving the woman inwardly frustrated. She possessed a Dao Foundation ability to peer into the hearts of others, yet when used against this particular Bright One it always felt as if she were staring at flowers through mist.
After several more rounds of verbal sparring, Princess Qingling finally lost patience and spoke directly. "My Azure Bird Tribe is marching south while your White Bone Dao advances eastward. The timing is perfect, and we can watch each other's backs. This is a mutually beneficial alliance."
"Princess, your kindness is deeply appreciated. This poor monk will certainly report it to my master. However, the master is currently in secluded cultivation, so we cannot overstep our bounds..."
Fang Qing had no desire to get involved in the brutal immortal cultivation war and continued to deflect with polite excuses.
"Very well..."
