Chapter 2760: 2760 **Chapter 2760: My Friend Doesn’t Want to Scare You** 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢 Lu Fengyao’s introduction was very detailed, and Lin Moyu listened attentively. The information he had purchased also contained details about these people, but compared to Lu Fengyao’s introduction, it was not comprehensive enough. Many details about the Lu Feng Merchant Guild were not for sale, and while information is information, people are people. No amount of information could compare to Lu Fengyao’s personal introductions. While Lu Fengyao introduced each person, Lin Moyu observed their expressions, movements, and eyes. This allowed him to get more accurate results, and he could even infer the situation of the forces behind them. Each force’s heirs had their own characteristics, and while there might be some deviations, they were generally consistent. For example, disciples of the Cold Water Holy Land were mostly cold and arrogant. Disciples of the Heavenly Sword Sect often carried a sharp sword aura. More people arrived, but the top ten seats on both sides remained empty, with only Lu Fengyao seated early. According to Lu Fengyao, those people had big egos and would not arrive early. Lu Fengyao had arrived early partly because of Lin Moyu. Lin Moyu understood and appreciated Lu Fengyao’s kindness, keeping it in mind. Finally, a prodigy at the second realm of Dao Sovereign entered the venue. Lu Fengyao’s eyes sharpened, "Finally, a main contender has arrived." The "main contenders" Lu Fengyao referred to were those qualified to compete for the title of the strongest prodigy. Lin Moyu looked at the newcomer’s attire, "This person is from the Myriad Scenery Holy Land." Lu Fengyao said, "His name is Tian Huan, also a Holy Son of the Myriad Scenery Holy Land." The Myriad Scenery Holy Land had more than one Holy Son. The title of the strongest prodigy in the previous Prodigy Gathering was won by the Illusory God Holy Son from the Myriad Scenery Holy Land. However, this time, he was over the age limit and could not participate. Lu Fengyao said, "He ranks just below the Illusory God Holy Son in the Myriad Scenery Holy Land." Lin Moyu asked, "I heard that competition for the Holy Master position in the Myriad Scenery Holy Land is fierce." Lu Fengyao nodded slightly, "Most forces are like this. After the Illusory God Holy Son won the title of the strongest prodigy, he basically secured his qualification to inherit the position of Holy Master." "But some people won’t give up. If Tian Huan wins the title of the strongest prodigy this time, he will also qualify to compete with the Illusory God Holy Son for the Holy Master position." Lin Moyu nodded, "Competition brings motivation; otherwise, it would be stagnant." Lu Fengyao smiled, "You’re right, but not entirely. A top force’s true strength lies in its foundation. Often, the heir is just a figurehead." In her view, a top force’s strength came from its foundation, and the heir was often just a spokesperson. In a force, the real decision-maker might not be the one in the spotlight. Tian Huan took his seat at the right third position, very close to the front. Only five people ranked higher than him. Behind Tian Huan was a peak Heavenly Sovereign, very young and powerful, just a step away from becoming a Dao Sovereign. If he became a Dao Sovereign, he would likely be a prodigy. Lin Moyu guessed that this person was part of Tian Huan’s entourage. If Tian Huan won the title of the strongest prodigy, there would undoubtedly be fierce competition within the Myriad Scenery Holy Land. One by one, more prodigies arrived, each exuding confidence and powerful auras as they entered the venue. Many of the prodigies who had arrived earlier were overshadowed by the newcomers. There were differences even among prodigies. The front seats were gradually filled. Lin Moyu’s eyes narrowed slightly, "I didn’t expect her to come." Lu Fengyao followed Lin Moyu’s gaze, "The current Holy Son of the Cold Water Holy Land, Gu Bichuan. Do you have a grudge against him?" Lin Moyu shook his head, "It’s my first time seeing him. I was referring to the person behind him." Behind Gu Bichuan was a young woman, only at the low-level Heavenly Sovereign realm, making her one of the weaker ones present. Lu Fengyao said, "Her name is Gu Nianshui, a direct descendant of the Gu family, but she doesn’t practice the Gu family’s techniques." Lin Moyu nodded, "She practices the legacy of the Horned Dragon Star Monarch. It’s been years since we last met, and she’s already a Heavenly Sovereign. Her cultivation speed is impressive." Lu Fengyao’s ears twitched slightly, seemingly listening to something. Lin Moyu knew it was Lu Lian providing information about Gu Nianshui. Lu Fengyao said, "In less than a hundred years, she advanced from Supreme to Heavenly Sovereign. Such cultivation speed is indeed astonishing." "The Cold Water Holy Land likely opened a secret vault for her. The Horned Dragon Star Monarch’s legacy requires constant killing to quickly advance." "She’ll probably head to the battlefield soon, where she can cultivate even faster." "If she survives, she’ll have a place among the prodigies in the future." Gu Bichuan took the ninth seat on the left, just one seat away from Lu Fengyao. This generation of heirs from the Cold Water Holy Land wasn’t as strong, lacking the brilliance of Gu Hanyu’s era. After taking his seat, Gu Bichuan looked at Lu Fengyao and smiled, "Long time no see, Fairy Fengyao. I hope you’ve been well." They had met at the previous Prodigy Gathering and knew each other. Lu Fengyao smiled back, "Thank you for your concern, Daoist Bichuan. Do you have any plans for this time?" Gu Bichuan laughed heartily, "My talent is mediocre; I have no plans. I’m just here to show my cousin the world. If not for that, I wouldn’t have come." Though his aura was cold, he spoke warmly. At this moment, Gu Bichuan’s gaze fell on Lin Moyu, "Is this Fairy Fengyao’s relative?" Lu Fengyao said, "He’s my friend." Gu Bichuan said, "Anyone who can be Fairy Fengyao’s friend must be an outstanding talent." Lin Moyu was shrouded in divine light, so Gu Bichuan could only see his cultivation level but not other information. Lu Fengyao said, "My friend doesn’t want to scare you, so he’s using the Divine Light Wood." Gu Bichuan didn’t fully believe it but smiled, "I see. Then please don’t scare me; I’m quite timid." Lin Moyu smiled without speaking, not caring about Gu Bichuan. He was more focused on observing Gu Nianshui. He wondered what Gu Nianshui had experienced over the years. She seemed more composed and exuded a faint killing intent, a trait of the Horned Dragon Star Monarch’s legacy. Gu Nianshui also noticed Lin Moyu. She didn’t greet him, only nodding slightly, as if meeting for the first time. Gu Nianshui hid her emotions well, but Lin Moyu’s spiritual sense detected her battle intent towards him. It wasn’t killing intent but a desire to fight him. Besides that, there was a hint of surprise, as if she hadn’t expected to see him here. Boom! The previously calm lake suddenly erupted with a water column shooting into the sky. Within the water column, a lotus flower bloomed brightly. On the lotus flower stood a beautiful woman, ethereal and divine. She was stunningly beautiful, exuding an otherworldly aura. Just by standing there, she captured most people’s attention. Lu Fengyao whispered, "The current Holy Maiden of the Ancient Lotus Holy Land, regarded as the most outstanding in ten thousand years."
