Chapter 872: Heaven's Favorite

'So this is the prowess of the man who opened the Mystic Pagoda… He was only a Spirit Master at that time, too…' Senior Nie thought to himself as he watched Yuan play with the six Sect Masters.

Because the Mystic Realm did not show Yuan's movement and actions, nobody but those that were with him knew his potential. This included Senior Nie, who could only imagine Yuan's prowess until today.

"This is absurd… almost comically so…" Sect Master Xiahou suddenly uttered in a dazed voice.

"How can someone like him exist in this world? Why are the heavens allowing this to happen…?"

Hearing her words, Senior Nie responded without looking away from the fight, "This is the heavens' way of messing with us cultivators for wanting to defy them by seeking eternal life. They will occasionally create geniuses that will surpass everyone with ease just to make the others fume with jealousy."

"Of course, if they're feeling extremely bored, they will very, very rarely give birth to monsters that will dominate an entire era, and these monsters are fated to do just that, so there is nothing we can do about it."

"We can beat them, oppress them, mock them, torture them, and even try to kill them, but they will always somehow manage to survive and continue their path of dominance. We call these monsters 'Heaven's Favorite'."

"So you're saying that he's Heaven's Favorite?" Sect Master Xiahou asked.

"I hope so." Senior Nie said with a bittersweet smile on his face.

"Why?" Sect Master Xiahou raised her eyebrows in a puzzled manner.

"Because there actually exists an existence that surpasses even Heaven's Favorite. This kind of existence are independent souls that do not obey any rules— not even those made by the mighty heavens, nor are they affected by fate, so they can essentially do whatever they want while ignoring all rules of this universe."
