Tang Jun looked at Lei Jie and asked casually, “How are you, big brother Lei?”
Two equally heroic and valiant youths were just standing there facing each other. Even though they were slowly growing up and puberty was watching its magic on them and they were no longer looked that alike as they did when they were younger, their features were still rather similar and anybody could tell with one look that the connection between the two of them ran deep.
Lei Jie glanced at Tang Jun before him and his gaze grew solemn. “Sixth brother Tang…”
Because of their age ranking, Tang Jun and Lei Lie were respectively addressed as “sixth brother Tang” and “big brother Lei.”
One could tell how differently they were treated simply by their difference in titles.
The different in reputation between the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ Tian Cang Master and the Lei Family’s Azure Thunder Master compared to their childhood lives had been completely turned around.
Tang Jun, the Tian Cang Master, was Xiao Yan’s First Disciple and Xiao Yan was also Lin Feng’s First Disciple. He was the most outstanding successor to the Inferno Precipice and was one of the most phenomenal individuals in the entire second generation of disciples from the Celestial Sect of Wonders.
He formed the Natural Supreme Spiritual Altar and formed the Natural Supreme Crucible, formed the heteromorphic purple pill as well. He shocked the world buy giving birth to his own Holy Light of Creation after reaching the nascent soul stage, shocking the entire world.
When he was in the aurous core advanced stage, he had replicated his own master’s glorious track record, similar to the others of the previous generation. He had killed a nascent soul advanced stage grandmaster in a one-on-one battle to the death.
His performance was equally exceptional during the War of the Two Worlds. Other nascent soul stage cultivators and even some immortal soul stage cultivators were thoroughly impressed.
He was typically firm and touch to the outside world and to his enemies, but he had always been rather friendly and kind to the other members of his sect. He was respected not only within the Inferno Precipice, but also amongst the entire younger generation of disciples of the Celestial Sect of Wonders. He was also professional in his dealings with other powers and other sects.
Even though the amount of time that had passed since the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ first days were limited, many people in the human world of cultivation were already starting to speculate.
After Xiao Yan and Zhu Yi, if leadership of the Celestial Sect of Wonders reached their second generation of disciples, then the two people most likely to take over as sect leader was the Inferno Precipice’s Tang Jun or the Heavenly Temple’s Yang Tie.
Dao Yuting and Lin Tong were higher in mastery while Zhou Yuncong and Han Yang shared Tang Jun’s otherworldly reputation and standards. However, Dao Yuting, Lin Tong, Zhou Yuncong were not ideal choices to become sect leader due to their unsuitable personalities as long as there weren’t any drastic unforeseen circumstances. This also applied to the others like Huang Zhenting and Ying Luozha.
Both Han Yang and Liu Xiafeng weren’t interested at all and withdrew from the nomination long ago.
The rest of them – Li Xingfei, Zhao Huan, Tan Yunqing – could all be considered phenomenal talents of their age and their reputations had already shaken the entire Divine Lands. They were leaders in their own right, but they were ultimately not as popular as Tang Jun or Yang Tie.
Tang Jun was firm and tough and never lost control. Yang Tie was steady and calm without losing his sharpness, and there was still a giant question mark over who would be the chosen one in the end.
Still, if there were no other dark horses or if the two of them managed to survive till the end, they were the two most likely to take over as sect leader from the Celestial Sect of Wonders’ second generation of disciples.
Lei Jie had taken the world by storm over the years as well. During the Spiritual Conference of Kunlun Mountains, he had severed Great Void Sect’s Chen Xingyu’s arm and that ended Chen Xingyu’s previous reputation of being an exceptional prodigy.
Lei Jie hadn’t slumped after the Kunlun Mountains. He worked hard on his cultivation, and his level of mastery had risen exponentially along with his prowess while his reputation skyrocketed again after a tiny period of decline to a level much greater than before.
The powerful youngsters in the Divine Lands of this generation, those that weren’t overshadowed by the extraordinary prodigies from the Celestial Sect of Wonders or the Great Void Sect, were few and far between while Lei Jie was the cream of the crop amongst this list.
However, Lei Jie appeared dull and colorless next to Tang Jun’s glory and splendor.
It wasn’t because he wasn’t outstanding enough – it was simply because Tang Jun was just too powerful.
Tang Jun was perceived as Lei Jie’s singular blemish in his perfect life and Tang Jun lived in a different world from himself. The fact that Tang Jun had overtaken him today was intense mockery for the arrogant and proud Lei Jie.
Tang Jun watched Lei Jie with a pair of placid eyes and he didn’t seem like he was trying to boast or flaunt his successes.
Tang Jun had the same incredible exhilaration and immense pride in his toils and sufferings over the years and his unstoppable rise to power. However, he didn’t wallow in his own successes and reminded himself time and time again not to let himself go and not to indulge, and that he had to continue on to accomplish greater things.
He didn’t reject sensations of elation or euphoria, and neither did he feel like he was overly proud and had already accomplished his dreams. He didn’t think these were negative emotions and following the passage of time and his rise in power, these feelings gradually grew dull and plain.
Therefore, he faced Lei Jie before him with a cool and composed mentality.
However, this didn’t mean that he had forgotten everything that happened before. Favors had to be returned and vengeances had to be settled, this was the way Tang Jun had always done things.
“Big brother Lei – you have always hated and despised me because of our father. The Lei Family also became angry with me as a result, and some people had also given me trouble and humiliated me, probably with your permission or even with your prodding.”
“If
