Chapter 12 - Understanding The Situation
The Blazing Dragon Sect, Sighing Cult, Supreme Poison Sect, Gracious Sword Sect, Ling Clan, Gao Clan, Xin Royal Clan, Alchemy Sect, Devil Sect, Xie Clan, Dong Clan, Mo Clan….
This stretch of the region had turned into a chaotic battlefield for dozens of major aristocratic clans and hundreds of smaller ones that spread across the Lower Heavens!
Several young experts had risen to fame, and had revealed their outstanding talent amidst this endless fighting over resources!
Sighing Cult\'s Eldest Young Master Wang Ming had triumphantly advanced to the Eighth Level of Qi Condensation Realm. He had become the undisputed number one expert in the younger generation of the Lower Heavens! Moreover, he had done it in secrecy. He was said to have taken some unusual path, and this path had been very effective.
Gao Clan\'s Young Clan Lord – Gao Xuan – had led his clan\'s forces to fight in one place after another… everywhere from north to south. He himself had smoothly broken through to the Sixth Level of Qi Condensation Realm. He possessed sword cultivation. This also proved that his strength ought to be above everyone else. Therefore, he shared the number one spot with Wang Ming.
Xin Royal Clan\'s First Prince Xin Xue Feng and Fourth Prince Xin Xue Ming had stepped into the Qi Condensation Realm as well; that too at the same time. Xin Xue Ming had become extremely clever with his schemes. His plans were foolproof, and he knew innumerable variations of every stratagem. His schemes gave him fame and acknowledgement of the crowd.
Though not confirmed, there were rumours that these four have already gotten hold of a Token. Hence, their sects and clans gave them the highest possible security. Ye Tian Yun thought of all the major and minor characters who would soon play a huge part in the upcoming future and the formation of God\'s Legion.
The lanterns had already been lit by the time this entire \'newsgathering stunt\' ended. A huge influx of information had flooded Ye Tian Yun\'s brain. His brain was temporarily in such a state that it seemed as if it had been abruptly filled to the brim. In fact, his mind had gone blank for a moment.
After organizing his thoughts, he raised his head and asked, "What\'s with the Gracious Sword Sect? I heard they would take in new disciples."
"Well, actually you\'re not up to date regarding this matter too, Gracious Sword Sect\'s entrance exam is already over for about two months now. You will have to wait for two more years to have your kids participate in it." A man sitting in the corner replied to him, he had assumed that Ye Tian Yun most likely asked about this because he wanted his son or daughter to be a part of the Gracious Sword Sect.
"To be frank, if you visit the Gracious Sword Sect yourself, they won\'t hesitate to take your children in. Considering your aura, you are at least a Peak Qi Condensation Realm cultivator." Another man continued soon after.
\'The hell? This idiot can\'t even distinguish between Half Saint and Qi Condensation!\' Ye Tian Yun wanted to ask where did this idiot come from? But he somehow managed to get hold of himself and got up, and walked outside as he said, "Well, you have said it right. Friends, thank you for your time, this Liu Ming shall take his leave."
It was already dark outside. And, there was no lack of safe lodging places here. However, he unexpectedly didn\'t wish to stay here.
He chose the mountain forest instead!
The spirit energy was at its peak in the mountain forest during the night time. Hence, this was the most suitable time and place for cultivation. On the contrary, it was obviously somewhat noisy inside the inn, and he couldn\'t cultivate.
Ye Tian Yun didn\'t wish to waste his precious cultivation time. And how was he going to cultivate? Of Course by hunting spirit beasts!
He had just come out of the restaurant when he discovered that someone was tailing him. Ye Tian Yun curled his lip and sneered. He swaggered away from the intersection and confidently walked along the main road.
Rustle Rustle Rustle…
Suddenly, the sound of fluttering sleeves reverberated along with an eccentric voice, "Hey, you over there! God of Wealth! Where are you heading to? Please don\'t go ha ha ha…"
Ye Tian Yun halted his footsteps. He was then surrounded by 7 or 8 people in the blink of an eye. These people were led by the two individuals whom Ye Tian Yun had driven out of the restaurant earlier in the day.
"Old bastard, you seem to have a lot of spiritual stones. You are quite extravagant ah." A slim guy looked at Ye Tian Yun with a sinister expression in his eyes, "You\'ve dared to mess with us brothers. You seem like you\'re quite eager to die!"
Ye Tian Yun gave him a cold glance, "Cut the crap. What do you want? Say it at once. This Young Master\'s time is precious. I don\'t have time for your pointless chit-chat."
The crowd separated at this time, and a big guy came out, "Young Master? Ha-ha, an old foggy dares to call himself crown prince and dares to be so rude and unreasonable in front of my Xin Royal Clan? Which Lower Heaven\'s power do you come from?"
Ye Tian Yun\'s pupils contracted as he slowly asked, "A Qi Stabilization Realm Expert?"
That big fellow coldly snorted. His imposing aura made him seem like an insufferably arrogant person. He shouted, "What\'s wrong? Are you scared? Old dog, hand over your belongings. Then, grovel before me, and beg for mercy. I might leave your corpse intact if you do that!"
His body shook a little and released a sharp and eerie aura that filled the air. His dense aura began to condense and slowly formed a crown above his head.
"You\'re planning to kill me, aren\'t you?" Ye Tian Yun asked in the most modest manner possible.
"Why? Do you wish to live?" The Qi Stabilization Realm Expert of the Xin Royal Clan was clearly at the Second of Qi Stabilization Level. So, he was obviously giving some ridiculing looks to the middle-aged man who stood in front of him. The man before him was already in his grasp as far as he was concerned. So, why not tease him a little and have some fun?
"That\'s good." Ye Tian Yun smiled a little, "I was worrying… that there\'s no reason to kill you guys." He raised his head, "It takes a lot of time and effort for parents to raise their children. It\'s not an easy task, you know.. So, I first look for a valid reason every time I am about to kill someone! Congratulations to you guys… for giving me a reason to kill."
