Chapter 219 - Meng Bai's Transformation

Chapter 219: Meng Bai’s Transformation

“What!” Li Chunyang’s shout took everyone in the cavern aback!

Xiao Qingwang, Li Changfeng, Luo Yunshang, Yian, Ji Meng, and the others gaped, their faces petrified in an instant!

In just a little over half a month, he had advanced a major realm!

None of the geniuses, from the past to present, could have such incredible speed!

There were nine levels in a realm, and it took everyone present dozens of years to cultivate from a one-star Great Martial Master to a one-star Martial Lord. Among them, Luo Yunshang was the most gifted, but it took even her several years to advance to a Martial Lord. And that was as she relied on the Shenxiao Temple’s supreme cultivation technique.

But, it took Yunxiao only half a month…

Everyone had an impulse to slam into the wall and commit suicide!

Xiao Qingwang almost burst into tears. During this period, he managed to break through to a two-stars Martial Grandmaster because of a large quantity of Primordial Stones and medicinal pills, and Spirit Qi that was a hundred times richer than outside. He was proud of his achievement, and he thought of showing that off in front of everyone. But, compared to Yunxiao, his rate of progress was rubbish!

He went completely crazy and said angrily, “How do you expect us to survive? How do you expect all the geniuses in the world to survive? Fu*k, at your rate of progress, none of us can survive in this world!”

“Haha! Hahaha!” After standing in a daze for a while, Li Changfeng burst out laughing. “Haha! You are truly my son! Hahaha!”

Li Chunyang’s petrified expression also gradually melted away, replaced by a triumphant look and a big smile.

“Those geniuses in the whole Heavenly Martial Continent are nothing in front of my grandson! Haha! I’m so happy, I’m fuc*ing happy!”

Li Chunyang was in a good mood, and he asked, “Yunxiao, how long do you plan to use to advance to a Martial Sovereign of the Nine Heavens realm?”

Everyone fainted!

Even in all the empires of the South, no one dared to dream of becoming a Martial Sovereign, let alone someone from the state of Tianshui.

Xiao Qingwang was going to rebuke Li Chunyang for daydreaming, but as soon as he saw Yunxiao and sensed the aura of a Martial Lord in him, he immediately shut his mouth. At such a rate…even if he said he planned to advance to a Martial Sovereign in a year, they would somewhat believe him!

‘Heaven, what’s wrong with the world?’ Everyone felt they could not think.

Yunxiao was taken aback by Li Chunyang’s question. He smiled wryly and said, “It’s not so easy to become a Martial Sovereign of the Nine Heavens realm. It is all because of a great fated chance that I managed to advance a major realm this time. There’s no such good fortune again, and I’ll have to advance one level at a time.”

“I see! So, it turns out to be a great fated chance!”

Everyone breathed a little easier and felt relieved. But even so, they still found it hard to accept.

Yunxiao thought for a moment and said, “I can only work hard from now on. Cultivation base cannot be forced, but something to be earned by persistence and hard work. I’ll try my best to make a push for the Nine Heavens realm in two or three years from now.”

Bam! Everyone fainted once again!

Xiao Qingwang felt weak all over, and he struggled to the wall in a corner as he kept banging his head against the rock. A few others followed, and for a moment, everyone began to bang their heads against the wall.

“Damnit!” Xiao Qingwang said bitterly, “If anyone dares to say he is a genius in front of me in the future, I’ll definitely force him to eat shit!”

Paying no more mind to the crowd, Yunxiao went into the depths of the cavern. “I’m going to take a look at Meng Bai, don’t disturb me.”

He traced Meng Bai’s aura and walked a few miles to a cave.

The interior of the cave was severely corroded, filled with a rotting stench.

Meng Bai was fainted in the middle of the cave, surrounded by a cocoon of white silk. It was not very thick, so his face could still be clearly seen.

That surprised Yunxiao. He reached out a finger and touched the cocoon while a tiny green flame immediately appeared and burned a fine silk thread, which turned into a wisp of smoke.

He sniffed and said, “Sure enough, the poison has become a cocoon. This Heaven Earth Venomous Body is really amazing.”

Yunxiao examined Meng Bai’s condition. After finding that he was alright, he smiled and said, “Let me help you speed up a little. I wonder how long this Purple Nine Neonate Flood Dragon’s blood will keep you asleep.”

He took out two large bottles of scarlet blood and directly poured them into the cocoon. Soon, the white threads were all strained red, and a foul smell spread out in the cave.

As soon as the blood came into contact with Meng Bai’s body, they began to sizzle and boil, producing bloody bubbles. The whole cave was filled with a poisonous stench, and it was hard to breathe. However, Yunxiao did not seem to be affected at all. He thought for a moment before leaving the cave.

When he left, he placed down several restrictive spells at the cave entrance, preventing anyone from entering.

In the Divine Realm Tablet, all the natural resources were at his disposal, so the spells he placed down could not be broken even by a Martial Sovereign.

Next, he left the Divine Realm Tablet directly. Duan Yue was still regulating his breath outside at the moment.

Hong Bing had sent men to guard him, so that no one would disturb him. Although Yunxiao had ordered the City Lord Mansion to be rebuilt and the city to be expanded, they were not tasks that could be completed in a day.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in the city. The man also sensed Yunxiao’s glance, and he was stunned. He looked at Yunxiao with shock and extreme disbelief as he froze to the spot.

Yunxiao snorted coldly and said, “Yu Rong, what do you want of me?”

The man was Yu Rong, who followed Ding Ling’er of the Tianyuan Trading Company.

The person who destroyed the Xingyang family was the City Lord of Yanwu, Li Yunxiao. The news swept through every corner of the Firecrow Empire like the wind. When Ding Ling’er received the news, she stood blankly for almost ten minutes, and Yu Rong simply refused to believe it. He had sent his men to find out the truth three times, and they came back with the same result each time. It was only then that he was forced to accept it.

He was here to invite Yunxiao for a chat under Ding Ling’er’s command.

In the past, the task could be carried out by a mere servant, but Ding Ling’er had sent him himself this time here. It was plain that her regard for Yunxiao had been elevated to the highest level.

But, when he saw Yunxiao’s cultivation base, he fell in a trance and was a little unsteady on his feet.

“Ding Ling’er invited me for a chat?” Yunxiao smiled. “My City Lord mansion was destroyed by a bad guy for no reason, and it takes money to rebuild it. I was worried about where to find the money. Even if Miss Ding doesn’t invite me, I planned to visit her as well.”

Yu Rong almost fainted when he heard that, and he said angrily, “I can’t believe you want to cheat money from my trading company again! You are a hungry wolf who can’t get enough to eat!”

Yunxiao stared at him, and his eyes gradually turned cold, piercing Yu Rong’s heart like a sharp blade. It frightened Yu Rong so much that he took a few steps backward and broke out in a cold sweat.

Yu Rong was utterly shocked. ‘Even if this boy is amazingly gifted and has broken through to a Martial Lord, he can’t fill my heart with a chill with just a glance! I’m a genuine eight-stars Martial King!’

Staring at him, Yunxiao said coldly, “It was your Young Miss who lent me the money, not you, idiot! You have no right to point your finger at me! Also, if it weren’t for your stupidity, how could Tianyuan Trading Company have lost twice as much money last time? If you displease me again, ask your Young Miss to come and see me herself. I’ve something else to attend to now, so I won’t accompany you.”

Yunxiao turned and walked away. His commanding attitude left Yu Rong stunned. Suddenly, the latter thought of what Ding Ling’er had told him before he came, and he immediately caught up with Yunxiao as he bowed his head and said, “Young Master Yun, I was wrong. My Young Miss has something important to discuss with you, which will be of great benefit to you as well. Please come with me!”

He uttered those words with great difficulty, and his face flushed with a hint of shame and indignation.

Yunxiao stopped as he turned to him and said, “An eight-stars Martial King is nothing in my eye! If it is not for Ding Ling’er’s sake, do you think an old fool like you can invite me? Ding Ling’er is so clever, how could she send an idiot like you to invite me?”

He shook his head helplessly as he threw out a Bluewolf chariot and stepped inside, speeding in the direction of Tianyuan Trading Company.

Yu Rong was fuming. He could not believe he had just been mercilessly scolded by a mere one-star Martial Lord. Had it not been for the plight of Tianyuan Trading Company, he would have taught Yunxiao a lesson. All he could do now was follow behind the latter with a gloomy face, his eyes burning with rage.

Soon, they arrived in Shangyang. After the Xingyang family’s incident came to light, the major forces were immediately relieved, and they had withdrawn most of their scouts. When Yunxiao entered the city, he did not discover many powerful divine senses.

Due to the gradual decline, the focus of Tianyuan Trading Company had shifted from several other major regions to the South. Although they still had a lot of business elsewhere, they had slowly failed to make ends meet and were losing ground under the fierce attack of other trading companies.

Yunxiao turned around at the door and glanced at Yu Rong, who was following him in silence, as he suddenly said, “You’re not convinced, are you?”

Yu Rong’s nostrils flared, and he said in a voice thick with hatred, “What do you want? I’ve been so humble, so what else do you want? You don’t have to drive me into the corner!”

“Drive you into the corner? Who do you think you are?” Yunxiao sneered, “Old man, don’t take yourself too seriously. I haven’t had a good impression of you since I first met you, because you are not only weak, but also stupid. If you were willing to help me that day, you could at least save your trading company millions of resources. It can be seen that it is your unswerving loyalty that keeps you close to Ding Ling’er.”

Yu Rong could not bear it anymore, and he said furiously, “Who do you think you are to comment on me like that? Hmph! I’m stupid? Do you think you are very clever? Everyone knows you have destroyed the Xingyang family now, and I think your Yanwu will not last for too long!”
