...
On the other side.
Lake Heart Island.
Jiang Ning stood by the lakeshore, facing the lake wind, his heart sinking into deep contemplation.
Scenes from today surfaced one after another in his mind.
Yu Jiuxiao... Emperor Yu's bloodline... Emperor Body...
He had already experienced Yu Jiuxiao's strength.
Nine Tripod Divine Body, Emperor Blood Inheritance—his strength was not weak at all; in fact, among the many experts Jiang Ning had seen, he ranked in the top few.
Stronger by a margin than those so‑called "second under heaven."
From this alone, Jiang Ning saw the power of the Upper Three Days.
Those "second under heaven" were in truth all slightly inferior to Yu Jiuxiao.
And according to what Yu Jiuxiao said, within the Nine Heavens, he couldn't even enter the top three of his generation.
Even with the advantage of the Nine Tripod Divine Body in the outside world, he only dared claim a top‑three ranking.
