"A Ninth Rank Superior Grade Rebirth Pellet?" Yan Zhenling exclaimed in shock.

```

```

She hadn’t expected this woman to actually offer such a treasure for exchange.

```

```

"Yes, a Ninth Rank Superior Grade Rebirth Pellet. With this pill, your talent, appearance, and body will all greatly improve, and it can even preserve your youthfulness forever. For you, having this pill would absolutely elevate your status within the Wind Radiance Sect to another level," the woman said coldly, her tone carrying a hint of mocking laughter.

```

```

Yan Zhenling’s face changed in an instant.

```

```

At this moment, she felt no excitement, but rather a sense of humiliation as if she had been insulted.

```

```

The woman’s implication was simple: that Yan Zhenling had relied on her body to climb the ranks, and that the Rebirth Pellet would allow her to please those in the Wind Radiance Sect with an even better figure.

```

```

For her, whether she made a breakthrough to the Ninth Rank or not didn’t matter much.

```

```

Yan Zhenling bit her red lips tightly, her face turning deathly pale without a trace of color.

```

```

"I won’t exchange," Yan Zhenling responded coldly.

```

```

"Think it over. Breaking through to the Ninth Rank won’t do you much good within the Wind Radiance Sect, and it might even invoke your master’s jealousy. It will only be detrimental to you. However, if you take the Rebirth Pellet, you’ll fit in like a fish in water..." the woman continued, but was interrupted by a roar before she could finish.

```

```

"Get lost! I said no exchange; can’t you understand human speech?" the roar bellowed.

```

```

The roar wasn’t from Yan Zhenling but from Xu Ping’an.

```

```

The words of the woman before him were simply too grating for Xu Ping’an to bear any longer.

```

```

What does ’fit in like a fish in water’ mean?

```

```

This woman wasn’t here to trade treasures, but to strike at the heart with killing intent.

```

```

Hearing Xu Ping’an’s roar, the woman immediately became annoyed and glared at Xu Ping’an, barking, "Who do you think you are? When is it your turn to speak? Yan Zhenling, is this the kind of discipline your Wind Radiance Sect disciples have?"

```

```

Hearing this, Xu Ping’an couldn’t help but laugh.

```

```

This woman thought he was a disciple of the Wind Radiance Sect?

```

```

It made sense; on the surface, his cultivation was only at the First Layer Realm of the Seventh Rank, and Tang Qingyu beside him was at the Third Layer Realm of the Seventh Rank.

```

```

It was normal for the woman to assume they were disciples of the Wind Radiance Sect.

```

```

But the attitude in which the woman spoke was very displeasing to Xu Ping’an.

```

```

"My lord," Yan Zhenling seemed to want to say something but was stopped by Xu Ping’an.

```

```

"Take the Xuanqing Vine Heart and open the Heavenly Gate; I’ll handle the rest," Xu Ping’an said as he stepped forward, his aura billowing, and in an instant, he appeared opposite the woman.

```

```

The woman furrowed her brows and looked toward Yan Zhenling.

```

```

She saw that the latter had indeed started to take the Xuanqing Vine Heart and was immediately alarmed, darting towards Yan Zhenling.

```

```

"You dare to snatch my things? Do you think I don’t exist?" Xu Ping’an let out a cold laugh.

```

```

In a flash, he appeared in front of the woman.

```

```

He swung his hand and instantly sent the woman flying.

```

```

The woman hadn’t even seen Xu Ping’an’s movements before she was already flung away.

```

```

Yan Zhenling too was dumbstruck.

```

```

She had long known that Xu Ping’an was powerful, but she hadn’t expected that his strength was this formidable.

```

```

Even the direct disciples of the Emerald Pond Holy Palace were no match for him?

```

```

Thinking this, Yan Zhenling did not hesitate and immediately swallowed the Xuanqing Vine Heart.

```

```

The power of the Xuanqing Vine Heart surged through her body.

```

```

Yan Zhenling immediately employed the techniques from "Wind Control Nine Heavens" to strike at the Heavenly Gate.

```

```

The Heavenly Gate is the portal that connects the Pill Sea and the Niwan Palace, so it can directly assault the Pill Sea.

```

```

But to break through in one go was impossible; she had to try time after time.

```

```

Seeing Yan Zhenling wholeheartedly attempting to break through the Heavenly Gate, Xu Ping’an felt reassured. He transmitted a message to Qingyi to protect Yan Zhenling, allowing him to engage in battle without worry.

```

```

"You’re courting death," the woman charged back, her hair disheveled, looking a bit of a mess.

```

```

The previous cool and proud Immortal Qi was gone.

```

```

The woman’s sword came slashing, the light of the blade piercing the sky.

```

```

This sword contained an extremely powerful True Yuan fluctuation, the Sword Qi sharp enough to cut through the sun, moon, and stars.

```

```

Xu Ping’an, however, simply uttered softly and punched out, directly shattering the Sword Radiance.

```

```

Then came another punch, with Fist Force layered on top, a total of sixty layers, incredibly domineering and fierce.

```

```

"What?" The woman was shocked and hastily defended.

```

```

But Xu Ping’an’s fist was too fast.

```

```

It smashed right into her True Elemental Shield.

```

```

"Bang!"

```

```

The True Elemental Shield was shattered by Xu Ping’an’s punch.

```

"Pfft!"

The woman spat out a mouthful of fresh blood and, transformed into a streak of light, she flew backward, crashing harshly into the Heavenly Dao Lake in the distance.

Xu Ping’an stood proudly mid-air, with hands clasped behind his back, like an invincible War God.

His white robe fluttered, and his aura was robust and vigorous.

Tang Qingyu watched, utterly fascinated.

What a domineering man, truly unmatched in the world.

Now she truly understood why Li Qingyi was so completely obedient to Xu Ping’an.

He really was handsome!

The woman emerged from the lake, clasping her chest, with fresh blood on the corner of her mouth, looking extremely bedraggled.

"You... who exactly are you?" the woman asked Xu Ping’an, her face filled with terror.

She couldn’t beat someone at the Seventh Rank of the First Layer Realm?

How was that possible?

"Xu Ping’an," Xu Ping’an responded indifferently.

Upon hearing this, the woman’s pupils instantly constricted.

"So, you are Xu Ping’an. No wonder you made it onto the Talent Rankings. At Seventh Rank First Layer Realm, to possess such combat power, it seems the Wind and Cloud Pavilion has underestimated you," the woman said in surprise.

"The Talent Rankings? So soon?" Xu Ping’an was taken aback.

He knew about the Wind and Cloud Pavilion, a very mysterious force.

Fond of collecting information from all over the world, they earned a vast fortune by selling intelligence.

And the most noteworthy thing about this force was that it issued five major rankings.

Xu Ping’an had thought that his name wouldn’t appear on any of these rankings for the time being.

But unexpectedly, he had made it onto the list so soon.

"What rank am I?" Xu Ping’an asked curiously.

"Ninety-eighth," the woman did not respond.

"Only ninety-eighth?" Xu Ping’an laughed.

It seemed the woman was right; the Wind and Cloud Pavilion really did underestimate him.

According to his own assessment, with his talent and strength, breaking into the top fifty should have been no problem.

"Do you have the list? Let me have a look," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

After a moment’s hesitation, the woman threw a golden ranking list over to him.

Xu Ping’an caught the list and glanced at it, immediately breaking into laughter.

Shangguan Lingyu ranked at number 68?

Besides, there were two familiar names on the list: one was Yu Xianlan, and the other was Tang Xinyue.

Yu Xianlan was ranked at number 72 on the Talent List, while Tang Xinyue was at number 75.

"Tang Xinyue is understandable, but both Shangguan Lingyu and Yu Xianlan’s rankings are so low. It seems this era truly abounds with geniuses," Xu Ping’an said with a laugh.

He didn’t doubt the authority of the Wind and Cloud Pavilion’s list; the Pavilion was second to none when it comes to intelligence.

The ranking list might have some discrepancies, but it was largely accurate.

Anyone who made it onto the list was indeed an extremely rare genius.

Talents like Song Kaitian, who had no place on the list, were excluded.

Not to mention others, even this woman before him, obviously highly talented, was still far from making the list.

The Talent List was ranked according to a comprehensive score based on strength, cultivation, age, talent, and many other factors.

In short, the higher the ranking, the stronger one might not necessarily be, but the greater the potential.

"Xu Ping’an, I was wrong to underestimate you before. Today, I’ve come to understand my own gap compared to the Talent List. My name is Duan Sirong. I’ve heard you’re a Loose Cultivor; would you be willing to join us at the Sacred Jade Hall?" Duan Sirong asked politely.

Her attitude was completely different from before.

And for no other reason than Xu Ping’an had shown his exceptional strength.

Being able to make it onto the Talent List, her pride meant nothing in front of Xu Ping’an, easily shattered with a single blow.

"I’m not interested," Xu Ping’an responded coldly.

"In that case, I won’t impose any further," Duan Sirong said, frowning slightly, no longer trying to persuade him.

She understood that geniuses on the Talent List weren’t something she could recruit, especially since she had made a poor impression on Xu Ping’an from the start.

"Xu Ping’an, do you dare to fight?"

Yet as Duan Sirong was preparing to leave, a loud and resonating voice echoed throughout Heavenly Dao Mountain.

Two figures were seen walking on air, the leader in a silver robe exuding an astonishing aura.
