It wasn’t only Meng Shurong. Even the other Divine Lieutenants were stunned by this piece of news.
“God grade genius? That Li Moying is actually a god grade genius??”
“You’re joking, right? How many thousands of years has it been since the birth of a god grade genius in God Realm?”
“Cloudy Qilin Clan actually has a god grade genius? This… this is simply unbelievable!”
“No wonder he could kill Sky Devil Rui Ze. So… he’s actually a god grade genius! I heard that heaven grade geniuses in front of them are considered as a joke…”
Everyone was stunned by the news about “Cloudy Qilin Clan having a god grade genius”, so they started to talk about it excitedly.
No one noticed that Jing Shaoyuan’s expression was becoming uglier by the minute after listening to their conversation. The jealous and hateful glint in his eyes was undisguised!
He thought, “I knew it! I knew that this is the reaction that everyone would have after hearing that Li Moying is a god grade genius!”
“These people have already forgotten that I’m the cream of the crop among the heaven grade geniuses, and can only remember that there is a god grade genius!”
That was why Jing Shaoyuan hesitated right from the beginning if he should spill the beans about Li Moying’s status.
But this matter couldn’t be kept under wraps so Jing Shaoyuan chose to speak the truth eventually.
Hearing everyone heaping praises on Li Moying, whom they had never met, Jing Shaoyuan finally couldn’t bear to continue listening to them any longer.
He coughed heavily, took a step forward towards Meng Shurong, and said loudly, “Everyone, please keep silent for a moment and hear me out.”
The Divine Lieutenants stopped their discussions and turned their gazes onto him.
Jing Shaoyuan said, “Everyone, please don’t misunderstand. Although Li Moying is a god grade genius, he has only ascended from the Lower Realm for slightly over a year. His cultivation is merely in the Heart Profound Realm early-phase. Besides that, he doesn’t have time to master Cloudy Qilin Clan’s secret skills at all. So his ability isn’t like what all of you have imagined.”
“In reality, I have just crossed hands with him over a month ago. His ability is almost on par with me!”
Speaking to this point, he paused and turned towards Meng Shurong.
“Divine General Sir, This Subordinate thinks that based on Li Moying’s ability, even if he coordinated with Jun Sihan, the two of them are unlikely able to kill Sky Devil Rui Ze. The news on this war communique… is likely an error!”
Jing Shaoyuan didn’t say this just to belittle Li Moying.
He indeed felt that even if Li Moying and Jun Sihan combined their forces, they would be able to fight a Sky Devil early-phase practitioner, and they would lose.
As for killing Rui Ze, who was in Sky Devil mid-phase peak state, that was absolutely impossible.
Hearing Jing Shaoyuan’s words, those Divine Lieutenants who were originally excited also started to calm down.
Towards Jing Shaoyuan’s analysis, Meng Shurong firmly believed him without any doubt. So he couldn’t help but frown.
“According to what you say, something indeed seems off! No matter how high a Heart Profound Realm early-phase practitioner’s innate talent is, there is still a limit to his ability. He can’t possibly compete with a Sky Devil, even if Young Master Jun is around… indeed… but it’s stated very clearly on the war communique, and Li Yukun’s spiritual imprint is on it!”
Jing Shaoyuan had already formed an idea in his mind. “The frontline’s stronghold had been surrounded by the demon tribe for such a long time. Who would know what really happened? Although the war communique has Divine Lieutenant’s spiritual imprint on it, that doesn’t represent that he’s the one who wrote it!”
