Chapter 409 - 85: Senior Brother Luo Cheng, Return to the Sect!

Chapter 409: Chapter 85: Senior Brother Luo Cheng, Return to the Sect!

Witnessing the sheer power of Li Shaofeng’s sword intent.

Luo Cheng’s heart surged with an unprecedented urgency and longing to comprehend sword intent!

Deciding to leave, Luo Cheng stepped forward to bid farewell to the Eldest Prince, Jin Tiandu.

He held a favorable impression of the Eldest Prince, Jin Tiandu.

Neither arrogant nor impatient, he treated others kindly and never displayed the airs of an Eldest Prince, nor did he harbor any prejudice against him for having awakened a Wasted Martial Soul.

It was hard to imagine that this person was in fact brothers with the Eighth Prince, Jin Min.

As they say, dragons give birth to nine sons, each different from the other.

Jin Tiandu appeared apologetic, “Luo Cheng, I’ve been remiss this time. Since you’ve rarely come to the Imperial City, why not stay for a few more days? Let me fulfill my duty as host and arrange a place for you to stay.”

Luo Cheng shook his head, “Another time. I’ve been away from the sect for so long; it’s time to return.”

He worried that if he delayed any longer, his understanding of sword intent might fade.

“Very well then, I’ll visit you personally some other day.”

The Eldest Prince did not persuade him further.

“Farewell.”

Luo Cheng turned and left.

Jin Tiandu gazed at Luo Cheng’s departing figure, speaking meaningfully to Luo Yao, “By choosing him, you’ve pushed him into the eye of the storm; the road ahead for him…”

Luo Yao followed Jin Tiandu’s gaze and smiled sweetly:

“He is destined to tread an extraordinary and thorny path. I’ve merely given him a slight push. How far he will go depends on himself. Let’s wait and see.”

Leaving these words, Luo Yao gracefully departed.

Jin Tiandu, having investigated Luo Cheng’s background, smiled:

“Indeed, one to watch for…”

Due to the recent fierce battle, many young talents had gathered at the entrance of the garden.

Seeing Luo Cheng approach, everyone looked at him with shocked eyes.

As if they were looking at a monster.

When Luo Cheng defeated Xiao Lie and others, it did not cause much of a stir.

It could only be considered as a slightly more formidable Early Stage Awakening Vein Realm Second Layer expert.

Defeating Liu Yifeng was different.

Liu Yifeng was a Third Layer Peak expert in the Awakening Vein Realm, had awakened a Seven-star Martial Soul, and was a disciple of the Extreme Dao Sect, making his combat power three points stronger than those in the same realm!

Even so, Liu Yifeng was strongly beaten by Luo Cheng!

Without any suspense!

Surpassing levels to challenge isn’t frightening; being defeated by a genius is another level altogether!

Moreover, Luo Cheng hadn’t even unleashed his Martial Soul!

At this moment, no one dared to have the slightest contempt for Luo Cheng.

Of course, this only acknowledged Luo Cheng’s current combat strength.

As for his future prospects, not many were optimistic.

As Awakening Vein Realm experts, they understood the importance of Martial Soul quality better.

Two Inner Sect disciples of the Xuanyuan Sect saw Luo Cheng and quickly stood up.

“Senior Brother Luo Cheng!”

“Senior Brother!”

The two cupped their hands in greeting, showing great respect.

Though they were Inner Sect disciples, Luo Cheng was still an Outer Disciple.

Yet on the path of cultivation, the accomplished deserve respect as teachers!

From the recent duel, Luo Cheng’s strength was overwhelming enough to earn the title of Senior Brother without embarrassing them.

Calling him Junior Brother would be too presumptuous!

They couldn’t bring themselves to say it.

Luo Cheng nodded, directly leaving the garden with Luo Yao and A Mu.

“Let’s go back too!”

The two Xuanyuan Sect Inner Sect disciples exchanged glances, also stood up to say their farewells, and quickly left.

Luo Cheng was still alive.

His cultivation had advanced to the Early Stage of Awakening Vein Realm Second Layer!

His combat power was exceptional, defeating Xiao Lie of the Fiery Sun Sect, Liu Yifeng of the Extreme Dao Sect, single-handedly!

Each of these news items was like a bolt from the blue.

The two already sensed how much of a stir these news pieces would cause when they reached the Xuanyuan Sect!

“By the way, I heard that before the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, Luo Cheng and Elder Qin Douyuan made a bet! If Luo Cheng won first place, Elder Qin Douyuan must abolish his cultivation and leave the sect!”

“Now that Luo Cheng is still alive, if he returns to the sect, then Elder Qin Douyuan…”

Xu Yuntao recalled the bet between Luo Cheng and Qin Douyuan.

The other Xuanyuan Sect Inner Sect disciple pondered aloud:

“After all, Qin Douyuan is an Elder; this matter will probably be left unsettled.”

“Really?”

Xu Yuntao pondered.

If he hadn’t seen Luo Cheng, he might have thought so too.

After the events at the banquet, he felt that things would not be so simple!

“Let’s go, hurry back! I have a feeling something significant is going to happen!”

The two quickened their pace.

Luo Cheng and his companions left Yunding Tower, while A Mu went to Lingyun Pavilion to get a carriage.

Luo Cheng having injured Liu Yifeng, Luo Yao didn’t want to deal with Liu Zongzhen further.

The two decided to go to the city gate first.

Walking side by side on the street, Luo Yao glanced at Luo Cheng with her beautiful eyes and chuckled:

“In just over a month, you’ve risen from the Third Layer of the Tongxuan Realm to your current realm, even Liu Yifeng is no longer your match…”

Luo Cheng’s defeating of Liu Yifeng did not shock Luo Yao any less than it did others, perhaps even more so!

After all, she had witnessed Luo Cheng’s rise from obscurity step by step from Qishan City.

“After you won first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, there were rumors that a strong figure from the Ji Family is secretly nurturing you. Is that true?”

Luo Yao’s eyelashes fluttered.

Luo Cheng frowned deeply.

He did not wish to be entangled with the Ji Family in any way.

Luo Yao, perceptive and astute, quickly waved her hand, “Forget it, if you don’t want to say, I won’t ask. Everyone has their own secrets. Anyway, you becoming stronger is a good thing for me.”

“By the way, you asked me to meet you in the Imperial City; what for?”

Luo Cheng let out a sigh of relief.

Luo Yao was not so easy to deceive.

He couldn’t find a suitable reason momentarily.

“I hope you’ll send me back to the Xuanyuan Sect.”

“Hehe, so you want Lingyun Pavilion to take the blame for all this.”

Luo Yao instantly understood Luo Cheng’s intention.

Luo Cheng nodded.

He had escaped the Blood Eagle’s pursuit unscathed and suddenly gained such strength, naturally needing a reasonable explanation.

Why not use the might of Lingyun Pavilion?

Luo Yao smiled brightly, “Actually, the moment I handed you the Identity Token, our fates were intertwined. You don’t need to explain to others anymore. If anyone doubts, just show them the token I gave you.”

Luo Cheng raised an eyebrow at Luo Yao, increasingly finding her enigmatic and inscrutable.

“That token…”

Luo Cheng had just started speaking when Luo Yao shook her head, “You’ll naturally understand these things in the future. Knowing them now won’t benefit you.”

Seeing that Luo Yao didn’t plan to explain, Luo Cheng asked no further questions.

The other party surely had her reasons for not talking.

Rather than dwelling on these matters, it was better to focus on enhancing his strength.

He didn’t want to be unable to withstand even a single sword intent from Li Shaofeng next time they met.

Once outside the city gates, not long after, the ground began to tremble.

Luo Cheng looked in the direction of the sound, his face showing surprise.

A Mu came driving a radiant carriage at full speed.

The two fierce beasts pulling the carriage were leopard-like in size, mighty and majestic, entirely covered in palm-sized iron feathers, exuding an intimidating presence that caused other carriages and horses to steer clear, not daring to approach.

Luo Cheng sensed that the aura of the two fierce beasts far surpassed that of the Sky Wind Goshawks.

“Let’s go!”

Luo Yao stepped onto the carriage.

Luo Cheng followed after.

Roar!

The two fierce beasts let out thunderous roars, pulling the carriage swiftly into the sky, racing towards the Xuanyuan Sect like a gale of wind and lightning!
