"How could this be? Why is she so certain? Fallen geniuses are countless every year..." Fu Feng still couldn't accept Si Tutu's claim, after all, it was indeed too astonishing.

"Since I've said it, naturally there is a basis for it, but that basis... I really can't tell you," Si Tutu said, recalling the scene her master had shown her a few days ago in her mind.

"I have crossed the endless starry skies to come here, with the sole purpose of killing you!"

The domineering young man, wielding a long spear, possessed an aura of unrivaled power.

Si Tutu trembled all over with just one glance at that scene, then felt an impulse to have a headache to the point of nearly undergoing Dao Conversion. It was as if an overpowering killing intent... was emanating from that scene. A mere wisp of it could have made Si Tutu's soul scatter!

It was only because her master intervened at the critical moment that she was able to watch the entire scene from beginning to end.

In that scene, the young man was incredibly powerful, so much so that it was utterly unbelievable, forcefully shocking to the extreme.

Si Tutu could tell that the person was truly young and not one of those old weird creatures who had lived for thousands or tens of thousands of years but looked young.

Someone that young, yet his combat power was something Si Tutu couldn't even begin to imagine in her wildest fantasies!

In the end, her master told her, that person was a young supreme.

Si Tutu was almost on the verge of collapsing, frightened!

When she was watching that scene, she had guessed that the young man must be incredibly strong. But she could never have imagined that he would be a young supreme.

"Could it be that in this world, there are still supremes?" Si Tutu asked her master, the mysterious young girl.

Her master smiled and said, "Of course, there are, and not a few. However, this young supreme does not belong to this world!"

Si Tutu was truly scared stiff, also astounded. Anyway, she remained in a daze for a long time before she came back to her senses. At this time, she thought of another question.

Because in the end, the terrifying young supreme... still perished!

It was said that the person who caused the young supreme's downfall was not Chu Mo, but rather the more mysterious and powerful Buddhist sect... Numerous great Buddhas chanted sutras together and transformed the young supreme's Dharmakaya.

But in the battles before that, when the young supreme lowered his realm to the same level as Chu Mo's, he could only fight evenly matched with Chu Mo!

Si Tutu even had a feeling that if the young supreme continued to fight in that manner, he might not be a match for Chu Mo!

The impact of this result on Si Tutu's innermost depths was far more intense and countless times stronger than knowing that the mysterious young man was a young supreme from Beyond Heaven, so intense that it was unparalleled!

Chu Mo... was he truly powerful to such an extent?

In the past, because his cultivation realm was too low, he could not display too much fighting power. To anyone, just about any Great Luo Jinxian or higher-level cultivator could suppress Chu Mo effortlessly.

Therefore, Si Tutu had not noticed what Chu Mo's true combat power meant for cultivators of the same realm. Now she understood that Chu Mo actually had power on par with a young supreme!

And he did not come off as inferior at all!

This revelation shocked Si Tutu greatly, and at the same time, she finally made a long-hesitating decision, which led to her returning to the Immortal Realm this time. Otherwise, at this moment, she still would have been in the Fantasy Divine Realm.

"So what do you mean?" Fu Feng looked at Si Tutu.

"What I mean is, even if he only grows to become a supreme, brother, following him, you wouldn't bring shame upon yourself," Si Tutu said to Fu Feng with a serious expression.

Fu Feng did not know about the awe-inspiring scene Si Tutu had witnessed, but he subconsciously was willing to believe Si Tutu.

Because he knew, Si Tutu would never harm him!

But for Fu Feng to make such a decision, it really was a supremely difficult choice.

After all, he was a top-tier great cultivator at the Flying Ascension stage in the Immortal Realm. To those powerful cultivators in the Heavenly Realm, the Flying Ascendant stage might not seem like much. But in the Immortal Realm, the Flying Ascension stage... was equivalent to being among the ones standing at the pinnacle.

And Chu Mo, up until now, no matter how famous he was in the Realm of Illusory Gods, regardless of how many great deeds he had performed, was ultimately still a cultivator at the Spirit Refining stage.

For a cultivator at the Flying Ascension stage to become a follower of a Spirit Refining stage cultivator, if such a thing were to spread, it's feared no one would believe it. Even many would laugh their teeth off, thinking only a madman would do such a thing.

Fu Feng certainly hadn't gone mad; he was very rational, even far more so than the average person. Therefore, what lay before him now were two choices.

The first was to decline Si Tutu's proposal and pretend as if the matter had never happened. In doing so, he wouldn't have to worry about anyone laughing at him. He just needed to wait a while, find the right opportunity, get ready, and then ascend to the Heavenly Realm. He could then leave all the current disturbances far behind.

What does it have to do with me, whatever you turn the world into?

This meant staying out of the fray. It was also, under normal circumstances, the choice Fu Feng should make.

The second was to agree to Si Tutu's offer and become a follower of a Spirit Refining stage cultivator. Then, once this matter spread, he would have to endure countless laughter, sarcasm, and incomprehension, bearing many peculiar gazes that likely wouldn't ease for a long time.

Even if he ascended to the Heavenly Realm, nothing would change, because he was sure to ascend before Chu Mo!

But that wasn't all. If he got entangled with Chu Mo, then the grudges from the upheaval of the Daoist Sect in the Immortal Realm would certainly be counted as partly his. The ancestors of the Daoist Sect who were already in the Heavenly Realm would surely hate this traitor to death!

Then there were Chu Mo's openly known enemies in the Heavenly Realm... thinking about those forces, Fu Feng felt a toothache coming on. Because any single one of them could easily crush him into dust!

After such analysis, it seemed he had no reason at all to choose the second path. Yet, somehow, Fu Feng didn't know why, but deep inside, he faintly felt... that Si Tutu's assessments of Chu Mo could completely become reality!

If... one day, Chu Mo truly grew into a supreme power like that, then, by that time, anyone by his side would, without a doubt... become famously known throughout the world!

For Fu Feng, who was keen on fame and fortune, this was simply a fatal temptation.

He really was tempted!

"Fu Feng, I've never felt that there's anything wrong with being keen on fame and fortune. As long as one isn't the kind of true recluse who is disengaged from the world, who else could escape the lure of fame and fortune? There's a saying in the mundane world that I think makes a lot of sense," Si Tutu looked at Fu Feng, "'Learn martial arts well, and sell it to the royal Wang Family!'"

Fu Feng softly said, "There's another saying, 'A good bird chooses a tree to nest in.'"

"Exactly!" Si Tutu looked at Fu Feng, "So?"

"So... are you sure they'll definitely want me if I agree?" Fu Feng began to feel uncertain after really making that decision.

A faint smile appeared on Si Tutu's face, "No matter what, that guy and I... do share some bonds. I believe he will agree. Otherwise, why would he go through the trouble of establishing the Piaomiao Palace in the Spirit Realm?"

"But how come I heard that after he established the Piaomiao Palace, he completely ignored everything?" Although Fu Feng couldn't enter the Realm of Illusory Gods, this didn't mean he was completely unaware of the information circulating on the message boards. Because the Fu Family had many bloodline juniors who could enter the Realm of Illusory Gods. Naturally, some of them were on good terms with him.

"It's not that he ignored everything, but that he didn't want his own causes to bring trouble to his group of friends," explained Si Tutu.

Fu Feng took a deep breath, "It seems he's a decent person!"
