News about a spike of Qi that made Bloody Guard and Murim Alliance on guard spread in the capital. Leo was able to hear it as soon as he stepped inside, dressed like a normal man.
Many martial artists gathered together and discussed the news, their voices loud and clear.
"Which hidden master decided to come out and make a mess?"
"That energy... That's 9 Star energy, right?"
"And of the lightning element at that. Did the Murim Alliance Leader manage to break through after so long?!"
"That's possible! After all, he was on the verge of breaking through before. Now, he's probably a true powerhouse!"
The crowd was full of gossip, and the topic was hard to miss. However, Leo wasn't interested. He walked past them, knowing full well who they were talking about.
