"I never expected you to reach this point; truly a surprise!"
Only members of the Martial Hall and a few high-ranking individuals from the Demon-Subduing Division knew about Shen Changqing's breakthrough to the Immortal Golden Body Realm. The rest knew nothing.
Therefore, Ran An had always assumed that even if Shen Changqing had made some progress, he wouldn't be able to break through that threshold and ascend to the next level so quickly. But looking at him now, it was clear the other party had truly succeeded in breaking through. This development was somewhat beyond his expectations.
However, despite this, he wasn't overly afraid.
So what if Shen Changqing has made a breakthrough? I've done the same. In a battle between equals, I'm confident I'm no weaker than anyone. Even if I'm held up and can't personally attack Fallen Saint Pass, with the eight-million-strong army, we'll definitely break through the gates of Luo'an Prefecture today!
