The older, more experienced elders could more calmly take in the news. But the fear wasn't any less prevalent.
One of them murmured, "Could this prowess be? Actually nearing half-step divine lord god?! Heavens...how can such a youngster even exist?"
"That's... perhaps he-" The elder next to him suddenly stopped talking.
His eyes glinted as a certain sensation permeated his Spiritual Sea. His face soon twisted into a maze of confusion. "Wha-what? Is this really true?"
It wasn't just him. Specific other elders began to dawn expressions of confusion.
At this time, safe within Lin Xiang's aura barrier, Song An sighed with vague relief. She had already witnessed a glimpse of Lin Xiang's prowess before. But this went far beyond any expectations.
"Hopefully, our great elders can make it in time...for Zheng and the Tian faction's sake. A bloody rampage might start otherwise."
