Chapter 465 - 141: Are You Looking for Me?

Chapter 465: Chapter 141: Are You Looking for Me?

Luo Cheng had just walked out of the courtyard gate when he looked up and saw Luo Yao and A Mu.

Luo Yao was wearing a gauzy dress, her delicate shoulders exposed, her two arms as fair as lotus roots, rivaling the frost and snow, radiating a captivating glossy sheen. She was alluring beyond words, her every movement enchanting.

Luo Cheng felt a flash of amazement in his heart and said, “Good morning, Sister Luo Yao.”

Luo Yao responded with a smile, “Leaving so early?”

“I haven’t been back for a while. Plus, so much has happened.”

If not for wanting to practice the Heavenly Fall Sword Technique, Luo Cheng would have left overnight yesterday.

Luo Yao nodded and took out two wooden boxes, saying:

“Inside these are the Spirit Pills and Soul Crystals you need. The pills that can nourish essence, energy, and spirit inside the pavilion are scarce, only forty-three in total.”

“As for the remaining Essence Energy Pills, I’ve exchanged them for Soul Crystals—all seventy-seven Four-star Primary Soul Crystals and eleven Four-star Intermediate Soul Crystals. The prices were calculated at a sixty percent discount based on the pavilion’s rates. You can check.”

Luo Cheng opened the wooden boxes, glanced at them casually, and felt a bit surprised.

Even at a sixty percent discount, these items were undoubtedly worth significantly more than thirty thousand Essence Energy Pills.

Spirit Pills that nourish essence, energy, and spirit are priceless; each pill’s value often reaches three million taels, with higher-quality ones even exceeding five million taels!

The forty-three Spirit Pills, most of which were Awakening God Pills, were Four-star Top-grade Spiritual Medicine!

Four-star Soul Crystals weren’t cheap either.

The lowest quality Four-star Primary Soul Crystals were worth over two million taels.

After a rough calculation, Luo Cheng estimated that these items were truly worth close to seventy thousand Essence Energy Pills!

Even at sixty percent, the total exceeded forty thousand pills, equating to four hundred million taels!

Without being overly ceremonious, Luo Cheng waved his hand and directly stored the wooden boxes, saying:

“Thank you, Sister Luo Yao! I will definitely give you a satisfying return.”

Luo Yao laughed softly, her shoulders shaking from mirth, “The way you say that makes me sound like a scheming merchant forcing you to buy.”

After some casual conversation, Luo Cheng bade farewell and left.

As she watched Luo Cheng’s departing figure, A Mu couldn’t help but say:

“Miss, should we follow him to check? The opponent has a Sixth Layer Peak Awakening Vein Realm master, and so many others…”

“No need to worry.”

Luo Yao gently shook her head and pointed toward the Practice Field.

“Look!”

A Mu turned to look, her gaze instantly freezing.

Within the Practice Field, the Training Post representing the extreme defense of the Middle Stage of Awakening Vein Realm bore a massive sword mark, nearly splitting it apart!

“This… What a terrifying sword strike! Even a Sixth Layer Peak Awakening Vein Realm master would struggle to withstand that!”

“He is only at the Third Layer Peak Awakening Vein Realm; how can his strength be this immense? Even forty percent of Sword Intent shouldn’t amplify like this!”

A Mu’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“Indeed, a mere forty percent of Sword Intent couldn’t yield such enhancements, yet he accomplished it.”

Even Luo Yao was astonished.

She realized she had underestimated him after all.

“A Mu, do you think he can make it onto the Domain List?”

“I… I don’t know… But if he manages to make it, and achieves a good rank, Miss, you’ll secure your place in the family and won’t need to suffer under the Eldest Miss’s glare anymore…”

Previously, A Mu thought it impossible for Luo Cheng to make it onto the Domain List.

But this sword strike had shaken her belief.

Suddenly recalling something, A Mu chuckled:

“Miss, if Luo Cheng does make it onto the Domain List, what about the promise you made?”

“What promise? Hmm? You little imp, are you teasing me now!”

…

Outside of Linjiang City, Luo Cheng mounted the Flame Jade Lion and sped toward Qishan City.

Buzz!

Luo Cheng released his Soul Power as he traveled at a steady pace, enveloping an area of several kilometers around him.

Recently, he had made significant advancements in his Soul Power.

Especially after practicing in the Washing Body Pond, his golden Sea of Consciousness had expanded by a full thirty or forty percent!

Luo Cheng suspected this was related to his absorption of the Sword King’s Will.

With his Soul Power enhanced, his Perception improved dramatically, extending to its limit, encompassing seven or eight kilometers within his senses, and he could maintain it for a period of time.

Hmm? They’ve arrived!

Without turning his head, Luo Cheng distinctly sensed three powerful presences concealed within the cloud layers several kilometers away, tightly trailing him.

A green-dressed woman, a black-clad youth, and a gray-robed elder.

The same three individuals who had followed him upon entering Linjiang City.

“Huh, weren’t there supposed to be five disciples? Why are there only two? And the Sixth Layer Peak Awakening Vein Realm master isn’t here either.”

Luo Cheng slightly furrowed his brows.

Luo Yao’s intelligence was unlikely to have been mistaken.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Cheng decided not to act hastily; it was better to bide his time to avoid alerting the enemy.

The Flame Jade Lion galloped swiftly, closing the distance from Linjiang City to about one or two hundred kilometers. Ahead lay a stretch of mountains.

“They still haven’t shown themselves?”

Luo Cheng initially thought the remaining three disciples would soon appear so he could deal with them all in one go.

Unexpectedly, the adversaries remained hidden.

Meanwhile, the three figures behind him seemed in no hurry to strike.

“Fine, I’ll deal with you first and interrogate you later!”

Without further hesitation, Luo Cheng tugged the reins to accelerate toward a mountain hollow.

Above the skies.

Three figures lurked amidst the clouds, flickering in and out of sight.

Their distance from Luo Cheng remained within several kilometers.

At this range, Luo Cheng’s perception couldn’t reach them yet, so they were safe from detection.

The black-clad youth gazed down at Luo Cheng’s figure, licking his lips:

“Senior Sister, let me go and finish him off!”

The green-dressed woman, Yuan Lin, lightly shook her head: “Be patient. In half an hour, we should rendezvous with Senior Brother and the others. Then, you can kill him however you like.”

The black-clad youth scoffed disdainfully:

“He’s just an Awakening Vein Realm Early Stage cultivator. Do we really need to make such a big deal of it? Senior Brother always exaggerates things.”

Elder Sun, only at the Fourth Layer of Awakening Vein Realm, also agreed:

“Kill him now, and we can return to report sooner.”

Yuan Lin was about to reply.

Suddenly.

Her expression changed dramatically.

“Where’s the person!”

Below was a mountain hollow.

She had just seen Luo Cheng ride into the hollow, his figure temporarily obscured by the mountains.

In the blink of an eye, he had vanished!

Only the Flame Jade Lion remained, drinking water by a pond.

“Where’d that brat go!”

The black-clad youth and Elder Sun’s expressions also shifted dramatically.

Yuan Lin frowned: “Quickly, look for him!”

“Hmph, if we had just killed him earlier, we wouldn’t be dealing with such trouble now!” The black-clad youth couldn’t help but complain.

At that moment.

A cold voice sounded from behind the trio.

“Are you looking for me?”

Hearing this, the three of them felt their hearts jolt and quickly turned around.

Behind them.

A young man in green robes stood atop the clouds, a Treasure Sword at his waist, swaying with the wind, his face bearing a faint smile.

“Luo Cheng!”

Yuan Lin’s eyes widened in shock.

She had only lost sight of Luo Cheng for a breath or two, yet he had somehow appeared behind them!

Luo Cheng calmly gazed at the three, saying:

“Weren’t five disciples of Xiao Lie sent to avenge him? Why are there only you two? Where are the other three? Call them out so I can send you all on your way together.”

“What!”

At this, the trio was deeply shaken.

“Hahahahaha…”

The black-clad youth couldn’t help but laugh wildly: “Who do you think you are? Facing death, you’re still putting on an act! Killing you doesn’t even require Senior Brother or Senior Sister—it’s child’s play for me alone!”

“Senior Sister! Let me finish him!”

The black-clad youth laughed arrogantly.

“Junior Brother Wang, wait!”

Yuan Lin felt unsettled.

Luo Cheng knew they were coming to hunt him down, yet he dared to reveal himself voluntarily!

However, the black-clad youth had already charged forward.

“Remember, the one killing you is me, Wang…”

The black-clad youth’s Essence Energy surged, his laughter fierce as he prepared to strike.

Suddenly, a sword light illuminated the sky.

Splurt!

Blood glimmered as the black-clad youth’s words abruptly stopped, his face frozen in shock.

He was staring at his own back!

And it was rapidly distancing itself!
