Chapter 254
Unexpectedly.
The effect is so strong?
Especially when looking at Yun Xianque and Fifth Sky, whose strength was originally weaker than hers, their strength directly soared to the Martial Venerable realm. This made her face look as constipated as can be.
She didn't have the qualifications to compete for the top opportunities, so let it be. But the remaining opportunities actually slipped through her fingers in vain.
For a moment.
She regretted it till her guts turned green.
If she had competed for them just now, she would have been the one who broke through to the Martial Venerable realm.
Martial Venerable ah Martial Venerable.
This is a realm where one can walk sideways in Nansha. If she had broken through to Martial Venerable today, she might even directly inherit the position of future sect master of Heavenly Sword Sect!
Thinking of this, she became more and more unwilling. Her gaze was cast and she looked at one of the points of contention.
"Get lost, all of you!"
Peng Xianer's Martial Venerable aura erupted, and the chill from the longsword in her hand was daunting.
Seeing this, several cultivators who were competing showed unwilling expressions on their faces, but seeing Peng Xianer's threatening look, they could only reluctantly swallow their anger and retreat.
Looking at the mud on the ground, Peng Xianer took a deep breath.
Such behavior was impossible for her to even think about before.
But in the face of the opportunity to break through to Martial Venerable, no matter how much she would lose face, she endured it.
Under the veil, she gritted her teeth, grabbed a handful of wet mud and stuffed it into her mouth.
But the next moment, her expression changed drastically.
"Damn it!"
She violently threw away the mud in her hand and flew towards the distant riverbank.
"What's going on?"
Fifth Sky and Yun Xianque looked at each other, and quickly went closer to observe.
"Pfft!"
Suddenly, Fifth Sky couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"What's so funny?" Yun Xianque asked with a confused look on his face.
"Pfft, this, this isn't the soup that the sir spilled, it's urine!" Fifth Sky said with laughter.
Yun Xianque's expression twitched slightly, and then he couldn't help but laughed as well.
Serves her right!
She was pretending at the beginning.
In the time that followed, the cultivators present almost turned the place upside down before stopping.
As for Li Shuhua and others who had broken through, their faces were filled with joy, and the previous contradictions seemed to have been left behind.
"Seniors, with such capabilities, this sir must be a Martial Immortal!" Yun Haotian exclaimed: "It's just that we don't know, why did this sir come to Nansha, what is he trying to do!"
Hearing this.
Everyone fell silent.
This was also what they had guessed.
Such a powerful expert would definitely have a purpose for suddenly coming to Nansha.
Not to mention he had revealed the emperor-grade demonic beast Flood Dragon as soon as he arrived, and he also subtly changed the balance of power in Nansha.
For example, the previously powerful Heavenly Sword Sect would certainly be at the bottom after their breakthrough this time.
"Seniors, I've heard Lu Qingshan from Qingshan Gate in Pingjiang say that this sir is very likely making his next big move, and Nansha is likely an important part of his chessboard. So his coming to Nansha this time must be to lay out something." Yun Xianque said as he walked over.
"If what you say is true, doesn't that make us all just pawns?" Yang Tianyu exclaimed.
"That should be the case."
Yun Xianque nodded and said, "But so what?"
This question made Yang Tianyu click his tongue, and made everyone nod in agreement.
That's right.
So what if they were his pawns?
Shouldn't that be an honor?
Thinking of this, everyone was somewhat excited instead, because being a pawn doesn't necessarily mean something bad. There could be a great opportunity that comes with it!
Watching Yi Feng and the others leave, the group followed them with a tacit understanding.
In addition to being able to pick up opportunities by following them, they might also be able to deduce something from Yi Feng's subsequent actions.
If they could grasp some foresight, it would be a chance to leap over the dragon's gate.
Two days later, after trekking over mountains and crossing waters, Yi Feng's group finally entered the true depths of Nansha from the edge.
"Sirs, the Li Family's residence Jiayi City is just ahead. Why don't you come rest at my family for a few days?" Li Yihan nervously asked.
"That would be great, but wouldn't it be inconvenient?"
Yi Feng asked with a smile.
"How could it be inconvenient? You are being too courteous, sir." Li Yihan quickly said. On the contrary, she was afraid that Yi Feng would not go. After all, if someone like Yi Feng went to her family, it would surely bring great prosperity.
"Then thank you for your kind offer!"
Thinking that this girl was becoming nicer and nicer, Yi Feng readily agreed.
After all, they hadn't gotten a good rest these days, so it would be nice to recuperate properly here.
The group entered Jiayi City.
Jiayi City was neither big nor small, and there were countless cities like this in Nansha.
And in Jiayi City, the Li Family was considered a prestigious family.
Of course, this Li Family was different from Li Shuhua's Li Family, still far from it.
The architecture was quite good.
It had the air of a great family.
"Han'er, you're finally back. Your father missed you to death." At this time, a middle-aged man in luxurious robes came to greet them.
"Father, I'm sorry to have worried you."
Li Yihan said softly. Then she quickly introduced Yi Feng and the others, "Sirs, this is my father, Li Yuan."
Then she said to Li Yuan, "Father, these are Mr. Yi and his friends. They are all my...friends who have taken good care of me along the way."
"Turns out they are Han'er's friends. Please come in, quick."
Li Yuan led Yi Feng's group into the living room and sat down.
"Sir, may I be excused for a moment?"
After entering the hall, Li Yihan asked Yi Feng.
Because after her breakthrough, she hadn't consolidated her cultivation, causing her cultivation to be somewhat unstable. But she didn't dare take any action in front of Yi Feng, so she wanted to resolve the issue with her cultivation.
"Of course."
Yi Feng smiled. He thought this girl was being too polite.
Seeing Yi Feng's smile, Li Yihan lowered her head. Ever since she found out Yi Feng's true identity, she hadn't dared to make eye contact with him.
Before leaving, Li Yihan leaned in close to Li Yuan and solemnly instructed, "Father, I'll be away for a bit. Remember, you must properly receive the sir and his companions, remember, you must!"
"Sir, I'll be going first and come back to accompany you later." After saying that, she bowed to Yi Feng again before hurriedly withdrawing.
Seeing his daughter acting like a young lady, Li Yuan's brows furrowed slightly.
Then he sized up Yi Feng's group again, and his frown deepened.
Except for Yi Feng, none of them looked decent, not to mention he couldn't sense any cultivation from these people.
But recalling his daughter's reminder, he still didn't reveal anything. Instead, he asked, "Gentlemen, I wonder which sect or faction you are from, and what level of cultivation you have attained?"
"Ahaha, Master Li is too courteous. We are unaffiliated commoners." Yi Feng said with a laugh.
"Commoners?"
Li Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly.
He had thought that these people had cultivated some special mystic arts, but didn't expect they were truly commoners.
However, the master did not reveal anything due to his political acumen. Instead, he laughed, "Master Yi, I'm a straightforward person. While my daughter is away, there is something I need to discuss with you."
"Please go ahead, Master Li."
Yi Feng laughed.
After pondering slightly, Li Yuan smiled and said, "As a father, I only want the best for my daughter. And since our Li Family is also a cultivating family, I hope that Master Yi can keep some distance from our Han'er."
"Of course I don't mean to look down on you, it's just that commoners and cultivators are..."
"So Master Yi...you understand what I mean?"
