Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

"No wonder the Demon Sect has been suppressed by you for so many years, but what you're doing is quite impolite."

Tao Yu's face, originally wearing a trace of a smile, now gradually faded away.

Having finally found his target, and with the progress going smoothly, this little wench had to meddle.

That was too much!

"I must ask you not to blame Feixuan for being overly suspicious, since with the young age you appear to be..."

But before Shi Feixuan could finish her seemingly sincere explanation, Tao Yu directly interrupted her.

"Frog in the well, presumptuously arrogant, you, in your youth, are able to contend with the senior masters of the jianghu. Could it be that you are also some old monster? I've heard that the Yin Gui Faction elder Wen Cai Ting is also tender and beautiful; couldn't you have also engaged in that harvesting act?"

Tao Yu had no filter – or, to put it another way, his filter for Shi Feixuan was skewed negative.

The other party slapped a label on his head outright; it wouldn't be polite to not return the favor.

However, it was undeniable that Shi Feixuan, chosen to represent the Mercy Temple, had also reached the realm second only to Sword Heart Enlightenment.

She was quite steady in her mental state control and did not become annoyed by Tao Yu's words.

Instead, she calmly replied,

"Feixuan has misunderstood, you've taught me a lesson, for which I can't prove my innocence."

This response somewhat raised Tao Yu's eyebrows; he viewed her in a new light.

She was indeed not easy to handle, as expected from a successor trained by the Mercy Temple.

At this moment, it was Song Shi Dao who stepped in to smooth things over, saying

"It turns out Miss Qin Chuan is none other than Miss Shi, may I ask if Miss Shi has any advice?"

Tao Yu deviated a bit in his address, causing Song Shi Dao to follow suit subconsciously.

Shi Feixuan, whose alias was exposed, didn't seem embarrassed and continued with her inquiry into the Way of the Sovereign.

If this were earlier, Song Shi Dao might have given a serious reply, but having just received the news of Fu Junniang's death and contemplating living in seclusion, his response was now extremely detached and transcendent.

Although that matched Shi Feixuan's perception, it was definitely not adequate for someone aspiring to be the sovereign of all under heaven.

"In that case, Feixuan will take her leave first."

Shi Feixuan did not linger any further.

"Miss Shi, please wait a moment."

Tao Yu then spoke, retaining her; Shi Feixuan paused but could not ignore Tao Yu's words.

From the moment Tao Yu spoke up, she knew that not stopping might lead to an unpleasant outcome.

"Please speak, Brother Tao."

"I'm younger than you, don't call me old."

Tao Yu first corrected her address, causing Shi Feixuan's ethereal temperament to be momentarily taken aback, but she quickly regained her composure and replied,

"Young Master Tao."

"Ah, that's better. You should be choosing an Emperor, and I think my brother here has the makings of an Emperor. Aren't you going to ask him?"

Tao Yu pushed Kou Zhong forward.

By now, Kou Zhong had thoughts and began making attempts, but unbeknownst to outsiders.

Following the original trajectory, Shi Feixuan would have eventually approached Kou Zhong, but it seemed like a mere formality—a gesture to maintain a semblance of fairness.

In fact, in the original trajectory, after having placed her bet on Li Shimin, that query was purely for the sake of her own conscience and peace of mind.

But this time, with a problem arising with Li Shimin, it was not easy to say.

And Tao Yu wanted her to provide an answer right now.

Not to mention, Kou Zhong, after being pushed forward by Tao Yu, was actually feeling his heart race.

However, Kou Zhong still had a joking and smiling face as he said,

"Don't, don't, don't; Fairy Shi, don't listen to his bluster.

"Right now, I'm just getting started and still clueless about how to govern a country well. I would only end up speechless to your queries, and it would be awkward for both of us."

Kou Zhong was extremely quick-witted; he knew nothing of the art of governance, all of it was being improvised on the spot.

But his response caused both Shi Feixuan and Song Shi Dao to pause momentarily, regardless, it indicated that Kou Zhong truly had such aspirations!

"Since that's the case, Brother Kou, why not choose your own wise lord to assist in unifying the world and relieving the people's suffering?"

In Shi Feixuan's current view, Kou Zhong was still the little Karami, but she could not dismiss the matter involving the Treasure House of Yang Gong or Tao Yu's subsequent push for Kou Zhong!

If Kou Zhong could bring along Tao Yu and the Treasure House of Yang Gong to support the wise lord she chose, it would undoubtedly add wings to a tiger.

"He said he didn't want to answer; you may leave now, and remember to close the door."

But before Kou Zhong could even open his mouth to speak, Tao Yu waved his hand, indicating it was time for everyone to leave.

This left Shi Feixuan feeling a suffocation she rarely experienced, along with a hint of annoyance and grievance.

You dictate when I can ask, and you also dictate when I can't; seems like you're calling all the shots!

However, looking up at Tao Yu's inscrutable eyes, Shi Feixuan still heaved a sigh.

"Feixuan, this is goodbye."

Having said this, he truly closed the door and leapt away, vanishing without a trace...

And it was only after she had left that the few people in the room looked at Tao Yu with expressions of bemusement.

Who was that just now?

That was Shi Feixuan, who currently represents the righteous path in selecting a sovereign for the world!

Her swordsmanship is unmatched!

So how did she just become someone you can call upon and dismiss at will in your presence?

Directly shattered to pieces on the spot.

So it turns out this fairy from Mercy Temple is just an ordinary person — it's just that her martial arts are a bit better.

But it seems...

That Brother Tao Yu's martial arts are even higher?!

This caused several people, including Song Shidao, to be shocked.

And Xu Shiji was utterly stunned.

When he first found out it was Shi Feixuan, he was actually quite pleased, even contemplating calling for help.

He had heard rumors about Shi Feixuan too!

If one were to just listen to the rumors, Shi Feixuan might even be comparable to a Grandmaster-level expert, highly esteemed beyond belief.

But then, the performance of this fairy completely dumbfounded him.

Is that it?

This young representative of the path of righteousness seems unable to hold down this man!

If she can't handle him, could I really be rescued even if I managed to enlist the help of the Vagabond Sect's experts?

Although as a high-ranking member of the Vagabond Sect, he knew there were many experts who had come, the force he had gathered here was also not to be underestimated...

What bullshit Mercy Temple, what Fairy Master, all undeserved reputation! Undeserved reputation indeed!!

"Hey, Brother Tao, come, come, have a drink to moisten your throat," said Kou Zhong.

Kou Zhong tore off his mask, revealing a heroic face lit up like a blossoming chrysanthemum.

Since Tao Yu appeared younger than him, he felt it was inappropriate to address him as 'kid,' so he directly settled on Brother Tao.

From that episode, Xu Ziling, Kou Zhong, and Ba Fenghan were able to confirm that Tao Yu indeed had very sincere intentions!

Being able to make a person like Shi Feixuan bow her head meant his martial arts must be above that of the three men. Not to mention teaming up, none of them would be his match in a one-on-one fight.

If such a person were really an enemy and suddenly made a move from the shadows, it would cost them a layer of skin.

But the man had sought them out openly and directly, presenting them with a gift.

To the two scamps who had grown up on the streets, they could fully sense the sincerity in this gesture.

And previously, to vouch for Kou Zhong, he had even directly confronted that Fairy Master.

Perhaps his strength was even greater than Shi Feixuan's, but sitting behind Shi Feixuan, there's a mountain of support.

The nearest was the 'Hermit' Ning Daoqi, slightly further away was Liao Kong of Jingnian Zen Monastery, and behind them all, the entire Buddhist Sect and the path of righteousness!

It could be said that even if his strength could suppress Shi Feixuan and make her compromise, such an action was like making a formidable enemy, extremely disadvantageous.

Even Empress Yin and the Evil King would probably get a headache encountering such a lineup.

"Hurry up and do whatever needs to be done; once we're through, I'll send you two off, so you can visit your mother's grave. You didn't come here just to watch a show, did you?" Explore stories at empire

Tao Yu said, finding Kou Zhong's fawning behavior somewhat amusing.

His words also reminded the three, and then Xu Ziling spoke up.

"We are here to capture Shangguan Long."

Tao Yu was taken aback upon hearing this, then fell into contemplation.

Seeing Tao Yu deep in thought, no one in the room dared to speak, wanting to hear his esteemed opinion.

"Who is Shangguan Long? Why do you want to capture him..."

After a moment of silence, Tao Yu blinked, as if to say 'Who's that extra? I don't know him...'
