"I am about to have a nervous breakdown over the word 'danger'."
An Jing remained unmoved by Fuxie’s grave tone. It wasn’t that he didn’t care about life-or-death crises, but the absurdity of it all struck him as so funny that he let out a laugh. "I’ve faced so many life-or-death crises that even if I am marked by Heavenly Dao, I have to exhaust every ounce of my strength and achieve a breakthrough in the heat of battle just to survive. You say what’s ahead will be dangerous—but has there ever been a moment on this journey that wasn't?"
"Let me deduce what’s coming based on my experience: if nothing goes wrong, shortly after I take this piece of Taixu Star Crystal, I’ll be swept into a major event. This event will undoubtedly involve many of the people competing in the Four Cities Tournament—it could be over rare treasures or precious Dao Court secrets. Among them, there will certainly be some from the younger generation I’ve kept an eye on. They might challenge me, or we might have to join forces against the spirit-beast puppets guarding the treasures. To earn the chance to subdue them later, I’ll have to defeat them—or the puppets—and demonstrate my power and spirit."
