1258 Heavenly Samsara: Chapter 8

Chapter 1258

(Unedited)

…

She did not know why Xin Ja needed to visit that manor, but if he can accompany her to that place, then she would feel relieved and happy.

She actually did not want to see that young master Ban anymore, but she could not always say no to his pestering.

With the recovery of Master Ban, the Ban clan's influence is once again strong in Alesia city. So, even though she is famous, she dares not cross the clan.

But of course, she knew that Xin Ja has a mysterious background and knew that with him by her side, she could not be faced with anything that could trouble her.

"Little Ja… I'm sorry that I wanted to request this from you… It's just that… that young master Ban would not leave me alone… I hate men that collect women like trophies you know that, right?" Qian Yan suddenly said.

Xin Ja just showed a faint smile on his face as they hailed a carriage.

Arriving at the Ban manor, Xin Ja and Qian Yan alighted and were greeted personally by Young Master Ban. When he saw that Xin Ja came with Qian Yan, he showed a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

However, he did not want to show it as he wanted to preserve his gentlemanly image in front of Qian Yan. For these past days, he tried to forget about her, but no matter how hard he tries, he could not.

She would always be in his mind and could not focus on his work.

He even stopped visiting his concubines and main wife because Qian Yan is the one occupying his mind all day long.

He even began painting her image and even created poetry just for her.

One could say that he has fallen head over heels for the young woman.

So when he saw her coming with another guy, he could not help but become furious even though that person is the benefactor of his grandfather.

"Young Master Xin, Miss Qian… Welcome to the Ban family…" he suppressed his agitation and greeted.

Xin Ja could already feel his animosity and could not help but chuckle deep inside his heart. This guy has fallen deeply for Qian Yan, so Xin Ja could not blame the guy for feeling that way. But if he messes with him in any other way, then Xin Ja could say sorry for what will happen next.

No matter what, he would protect his own.

And so, Xin Ja was led inside the manor towards the main hall.

Qian Yan did not hesitate to follow Xin Ja, which made Ban Railong frown deeply. He wanted to lead the beautiful woman towards his own manor and show off, but she seems reluctant to follow him. So he could only grit his teeth and follow behind them.

"Little Ja, look at that… It looks beautiful. That Ban clan is truly one of the strongest clans in the city…" she said while pointing at a set of rock formations.

Upon seeing this, Ban Railong showed a proud smile on his face and then introduced.

"That is the clan's strength testing rock… It is a special formation that creates pressure that would truly test one's true strength. This is considered as the most accurate strength testing procedure…" Ban Railong said proudly.

Xin Ja frowned a bit and became interested, but he did not say anything. However, the eyes of Qian Yan are already brimming with interest.

"Hihi… I think it would be fun to try it out, don't you think so… Little Ja?" she playfully smiled.

She wanted to know the true capability of Xin Ja. With one look, one can only tell that the guy is a 1st level Ki fighter. However, she could not believe such a thing.

This is because… the guy is ridiculously strong for a 1st level Ki fighter.

Suddenly, the eyes of Ban Railong glittered with craftiness.

"If she could see how useless this guy is in his cultivation, maybe she would be attracted to me… who is far stronger…" he thought.

Ban Railong knew that Xin Ja is an expert when it comes to medicine. However, his cultivation is only at the 1st level. So he wanted to show off in front of the woman he likes.

"Junior brother… Why not try it… Maybe, you've got strong after all these years…" Ban Railong called Xin Ja junior referring to himself as a senior and in turn stronger.

Xin Ja wave his hand and wanted to say no, but he was suddenly grabbed by Qian Yan.

When Ban Railong saw the two holding hands while walking towards the strength testing stone formation, he grits his teeth in jealousy. He so wanted to exchange places with the guy Xin Ja and be held by her dainty little hands.

Feeling helpless, Xin Ja was dragged by Qian Yan towards the strength testing stone where a couple of Ban clan members are testing their strength.

The young people would stand in the center of the formation and would begin a series of movements as shown by the Ki flow in the formation. As one follows the Ki flow through their movements, the formation would start directing its force to suppress the person in the middle.

Only when he could not move anymore after exerting everything in his power will he accurately learn of his true strength.

"5th level Ki fighter! Congratulations junior brother!" the person in charge of the assessment greeted as he patted the shoulder of the one who just finished the assessment.

One could see large beads of sweat covering his back and his forehead.

"Alright… Next!" the guy shouted as another clan member walked in the middle of the formation.

When Xin Ja and the group arrive, many immediately recognize Ban Railong and immediately greeted him.

"Greeting Senior Ban!" the junior clan members greeted him in unison.

Ban Railong waved his hand to greet them too.

"Seniors… These are my friends, and they wanted to also join in…" Ban Railong pointed at Xin Ja and Qian Yan.

The man in charge nodded his head but showed a hint of disdain when he noticed that Xin Ja is only at the 1st level.

He could not help but call the guy trash deep in his heart.

But as a guess of the young master of the Ban clan, he dare not show disrespect.

The guy in the middle of the formation began moving with ease. But soon, the indicator pointed at the 5th level and it made his movement sluggish.

This indicates that the pressure is already bearing on him. The guy suddenly used his Ki and his movement caught up with the Ki flow.

But soon, he once again became sluggish and finally stopped. He could not move anymore no matter how hard he tries.

The test is now over.

"You're already at the 6th level too… Congratulations!" the guy in charge patted the guy's shoulder when he walked beside him.

"Do you want to try?" Ban Railong said calmly.

But deep in his heart, he is already laughing at the young man. So what if he is a great doctor? His strength is still weak, so he is still trash.

"Hmm… Why not…" Xin Ja wanted to say no, but he himself is quite curious if his strength would show in this type of test.

In the future, he could prepare himself if he encounters one.

In fact, he could use the Ki masking technique taught to him by Master Wang, but he knew that it is not that reliable at times.

And so, experiencing this kind of test for the first time would be an eye-opener for him, and would enable him to create and polish his Ki masking technique.

And so, Xin Ja walked to the center of the formation and then waited.

"We are ready to start now! Are you ready, junior brother?" Ban Railong asked with a hint of a playful smile on his face.

He has already relayed some hand signals to the person operating the formation. And that guy nodded his head in understanding.

Ban Railong did not want to hurt Xin Ja but only embarrass the guy so that he could show his own strength towards the woman he likes.

With the nod of the guy's head operating the formation, a pressure of a 3rd level suddenly erupted from the formation.

Xin Ja frowned when this happened.

Suddenly Qian Yan noticed that the pressure indicator on the control formation panel in front of the guy showed that the strength level of the pressure is around the 3rd level.

With a person at the strength of 1st level Ki fighter facing the pressure of the 3rd level, she knew that it would cause one to be flattened on the ground.

It might even cause some minor injury to the person taking the test in his internal organs.

Although she has not seen such a test before, she has heard of it in the capital. She knew that with this mistake Xin Ja would surely suffer an injury.

She could not help but blame herself for her willfulness that causes her friend to be hurt.

She also could not help but glare at the despicable guy beside her.
