Chapter 55: Chapter 55: My Qin Family Has Connections!
âGo, go right now! If I donât take revenge, I wonât be able to quell the hatred in my heart!â
Lu Yan gritted his teeth, his gaze fierce and malevolent.
Although the Lu Family in Xuanfeng City couldnât compare to the Qin Family, they were still influential.
Growing up, he had never experienced such humiliation!
âHold on!â
The servant was about to leave, but Qin Yuanfeng stopped him.
Qin Yuanfeng turned to the other servants and said, âYou also go. Keep an eye on his recent activities and see if he has any plans.â
âYes, sir!â
The servants hurried out.
âQin Yuanfeng, why are you investigating this?â Lu Yan asked.
After sipping his tea, Qin Yuanfeng smirked, âLu Yan, surely you donât intend to act recklessly in the city, right? This isnât Xuanfeng City. If anything goes wrong, weâll be in big trouble. We might even end up offending Lingyun Pavilion.â
âThisâŠâ
Lu Yan froze; he had always enjoyed absolute power in Xuanfeng City and hadnât considered this at all.
Qin Yuanfeng said, âRelax. He likely came here for the trials of the Three Great Sects. As long as itâs not Luoxia Sect, Fierce Cloud Sect, or Xuanyuan Sect, my Qin Family has people in place. Killing him will be as simple as flipping a hand!â
A cold glint flashed through Qin Yuanfengâs eyes.
Seeing this, Lady Hua, sitting aside, gently sipped her tea, sighing inwardly.
She knew Qin Yuanfeng well. Despite his high self-regard and calm appearance after being publicly humiliated today, his heart was likely a stormy sea, even fiercer than Lu Yanâsâa fact he simply didnât show.
Not long after, several servants rushed back.
âYoung Master, that boy is staying at Jiangfeng Inn. Also, he asked the innkeeper about tomorrowâs Xuanyuan Sect ferry,â one of the servants reported.
âOh?â
Qin Yuanfeng raised an eyebrow.
Lu Yan, who was next to him, had already burst into peals of laughter, âHaha! It seems heâs heading to Xuanyuan Sect! Truly fortunate for me! This should be a lot of fun!â
âWhat a coincidenceâŠâ
Lady Hua paused for a moment, before shaking her head slightly as though she could already foresee Luo Chengâs tragic fate.
Their group was also going to Xuanyuan Sect for the disciple trials.
At Jiangfeng Inn.
Luo Cheng sent off the elder from Lingyun Pavilion and returned directly to his guest room.
âThis Lingxiao Jade Token is truly remarkable. Next time I see Luo Yao, I must thank her properly.â
Just todayâs transaction alone saved Luo Cheng nearly a million silver notes thanks to the Lingxiao Jade Token!
Lingyun Pavilion being so accommodating to him was likely due to the jade tokenâs influence.
Add to that, Luo Cheng had learned from the elder that the Lingxiao Jade Token was actually a treasure item, containing a storage space.
However, the storage space required Essence Energy to be accessed.
Only martial artists who reached the Third Stage of Tongxuan Realm and could emit Essence Energy externally could utilize it.
Storing away the Lingxiao Jade Token, Luo Cheng drew his Meteor Sword.
âHeavenly Fall First FormâWind Stopping!â
The fierce flash of the sword illuminated the entire room.
Chhh!
A moment later, only then did the sound of air being torn apart reach his ears.
âNot bad!â
Luo Cheng nodded with satisfaction and decided to test the Meteor Swordâs power further. He placed his previous sword on the table and struck again.
Clang!
Sparks flew in all directions, and the long sword forged of fine iron bore a deep gash, nearly breaking in half!
âSuch powerful force. Unfortunately, the speed is significantly slower. It seems I need to quickly improve my strength if I want to wield this sword freely.â
Luo Cheng was highly satisfied with the Meteor Sword, but the only drawback was the lack of fluidity in executing sword techniques.
This was due to the sword being much heavier.
Of course, as his strength advanced, this would no longer be an issue.
Sheathing the Meteor Sword, Luo Cheng sat down on the bed and took out the Yunzang Pill.
âForget it; Iâll make the breakthrough once I reach Xuanyuan Sect.â
Luo Cheng originally intended to make a determined effort to break into the Third Layer of Transcendence Realm.
After some deliberation, he decided against it.
The Xuanyuan Sect ferry would leave early in the morning, and there was little time to spare.
âFor now, Iâll refine these Spiritual Medicines.â
This time, Luo Cheng had purchased as many as eight Three-star Spiritual Medicines, carrying them was quite inconvenient.
He took them out and began refining them one by one.
The next morning, Luo Cheng emerged from his cultivation state.
Overnight, he had refined all eight Three-star Spiritual Medicines, producing ten Three-star Pills.
Additionally, Luo Cheng had consolidated the True Dragon Technique.
Now, the pulsating energy in his dantian began to form angular shapes, resembling a small snake freely swimming within the Essence Energy Vortex in his dantian.
âCondensing Dragon Energyâthe True Dragon Technique is finally initiated. As long as this Dragon Energy undergoes nine transformations to become a True Dragon, that will be the day the True Dragon Technique reaches Great Success!â
Luo Chengâs heart surged with excitement.
Once the True Dragon Technique attained Great Success, he would wield True Dragon Power, with strength exceeding a hundred thousand pounds!
At that point, even Sun Chuanwu, one of the ten top Outer Disciples of Fierce Cloud Sect, wouldnât be able to withstand a single punch!
âTime to head out!â
Glancing at the sky, Luo Cheng got up and prepared to go to the pier.
âHuh!â
The moment he picked up the Meteor Sword, a trace of surprise flickered in Luo Chengâs eyes.
Overnight, he felt as if the Meteor Sword had become slightly lighter.
Luo Cheng surmised it might be due to the True Dragon Technique.
Exhaling lightly, Luo Cheng opened the door and descended the stairs.
âYoung Master, someone inquired about you yesterday,â
While checking out, the waiter who had previously served Luo Cheng spoke in a low voice as a reminder.
âInquired about me?â
Luo Cheng was puzzled. He didnât know anyone in Linjiang City and asked, âWho was it?â
âA man in his thirties. Based on his attire, likely a servant from some household.â
A servantâŠ
Luo Cheng immediately thought of Lu Yan and his group whom he had seen yesterday.
âUnderstood. Hereâs a reward for you!â
Luo Cheng nodded and tossed a piece of silver to the waiter.
âThank you, Young Master!â
The waiter was overjoyed.
Those few taels of silver amounted to several months of his wages.
âThese people are really haunting me like lingering spirits.â
As he walked down the street, a cold glint flashed in Luo Chengâs eyes.
He didnât seek trouble, but he also didnât fear it.
Among them, only Qin Yuanfeng made him slightly wary.
However, with the Meteor Sword combined with the Heavenly Fall Sword Technique, even if Qin Yuanfeng were a Fourth Layer Transcendence Realm Martial Artist, Luo Cheng was confident in holding his own.
Of course, defeating him wouldnât be easy.
Fourth Layer Transcendence Realm Martial Artists had refined their marrow, peeled away impurities, and processed their marrow until it was like frost. They possessed the strength of nine bulls and two tigers, enough to fight off a thousand foesâtruly formidable.
Luo Cheng resolved to break through to the Third Layer of Transcendence Realm as soon as possible.
Only by increasing his cultivation could his overall strength improve.
âSo many experts!â
Approaching the pier, Luo Cheng noticed the increasing number of people around him.
Most of them were teenagers, some only ten years old, clearly coming for the trials of the Three Great Sects.
Luo Cheng observed the crowd, noting that many were Transcendence Realm Martial Artists.
Transcendence Realm Third Layer and Fourth Layer Martial Artists were well-represented.
Many were around his age, and any one of them would likely be a top-tier genius in Qishan City!
âIf you donât explore the world, youâll forever remain a frog at the bottom of the well.â
Luo Cheng felt a swell of emotions.
The pier was a sea of people, at least tens of thousands gathered there, forming a dense mass.
The ferry carrying the Three Great Sects had yet to arrive, so Luo Cheng found an open area to enjoy the scenery.
The river stretched far and wide, its surface a misty expanse disappearing into the horizon.
This river was called the Luoyan River, and it crossed multiple kingdoms of the Eastern Domain. It was said even wild geese couldnât manage to fly straight across without stopping, hence the name.
âThe ferries are here!â
Suddenly, the crowd erupted in excitement.
On the riverâs surface, three massive warships, each towering over several dozen meters, sliced through the waves as they approached.
