Chapter 94: Chapter 89 Kong Nian’s Surprise _1

Translator: 549690339

Walking in the marketplace of the Outer Court, Jiang Yuan, fearing too much trouble from Shu Xiaoxiao, had asked her to wear a veil.

To hide her incredibly beautiful face. This way, she was much less of a magnet to the passersby around them!

Watching the bustling crowd, Jiang Yuan felt somewhat taken aback.

It felt as though he had entered a worldly marketplace, full of vibrancy, with numerous vendors along the streets.

He had been at the Supreme Mystery Sect for almost two months now, but this was his first time visiting the Outer Court’s marketplace.

Shu Xiaoxiao said, “Young Master, up ahead is the Biyu Pavilion. This restaurant has the most famous wine in the market, the Biyu Spring Tea.

If you want good wine, this restaurant is the go-to choice.”

All along the way, she was adeptly introducing Jiang Yuan to the marketplace.

Since Jiang Yuan had been cultivating at home in the past, she was in charge of purchasing all types of materials, making her exceptionally familiar with the layout of the marketplace.

Watching the effortlessly conversational Shu Xiaoxiao, Jiang Yuan had a multitude of feelings.

He hadn’t expected the once unimpressive little girl to have grown so brilliantly.

Because of her, he was spared a lot of trouble.

In that case, it really was his good fortune.

After a while, Shu Xiaoxiao said, “Master, we’re here!” Jiang Yuan looked up at the signboard in front of him.

Biyu Pavilion.

The place was bustling; standing outside, he could hear the raucous noise from the hall, and people were continuously coming in and going out. Jiang Yuan lifted his foot to go in, “Let’s go in and see how the taste is!”

As soon as they entered the hall.

An alert waiter immediately stepped forward to greet them.

“Ah, this way to the second floor, sir!”

Looking at his gaze, Jiang Yuan curiously asked, “Do you know me?”

“Sir, you must be joking! How could we not know you if we are operating in the Outer Court?! Us commoners, if we offend you unknowingly, even death would be in vain.”

Jiang Yuan nodded, heading upstairs.

He had a sense of enlightenment about the lowest rung of people in the marketplace.

They were also pitiful!

Even though they earned more, they were still ordinary people, low in status.

They might be holding on to hope in their hearts, the hope to cross the boundary between the ordinary and the extraordinary.

Therefore, they chose to stay here and were reluctant to leave.

Throughout his journey, virtually everyone he met like this waiter had cultivation.

This waiter in front of him, probably not yet thirty, was already a martial artist at the Blood Refining stage.

If he were in the outside world, he would also be like a heaven genius, high and mighty, a local hero.

But here, he could only be a lackey.

Nevertheless, it was precisely because he was here that he could reach the Blood Refining stage.

After all, the land where the Supreme Mystery Sect was located was full of spiritual energy.

They were nourished by spiritual energy year after year, and even the food they consumed was infused with spiritual energy.

Under such subtle influences, the progress of body forging naturally outpaced that in the outside world.

Once Jiang Yuan hardly sat down, the waiter said, “Please have a look, sir!”

He handed the menu in his hand to Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan glanced at it, “A pot of Biyu Spring Tea, and one of each specialty!”

“Great! Please wait a moment, sir!”

The waiter was instantly delighted and walked towards the shopkeeper.

Such a generous order, he would also get a little commission, and he would be able to buy more medicinal herbs to assist in blood renewal.

One step closer to transcendence, how could he not be happy.

Watching the joyfully departing waiter, Jiang Yuan laughed. Then he said to Shu Xiaoxiao, “Xiaoxiao, you should sit down too!”

“Master, I’m fine standing!”

“Sit!”

She timidly sat down by his side.

After a while.

Thump! Thump! Thump!

The waiter quickly came upstairs with a tray, which had a pot of wine and a few wine glasses on it.

“Sir! The Biyu Spring Tea is here, the dishes will take a little moment.”

After he put down the tray, Jiang Yuan gestured, and the waiter quickly got the hint and went downstairs.

After Shu Xiaoxiao poured Jiang Yuan a glass of wine, she looked at him expectantly.

“You should also pour yourself a glass to taste,” Jiang Yuan said.

“Okay!”

Shu Xiaoxiao quickly filled a glass for herself, closed her eyes and drank it in one gulp.

After a couple of moments, her cheeks blushed.

“Good wine!” she exclaimed.

Jiang Yuan laughed and shook his head, “What do you know about good wine!”

After saying this, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip. It was smooth and akin to nectar, with a fresh bamboo aroma.

Then a cool sensation went down the throat, straight to the heart.

After a couple of moments, it transformed into a flame that traveled upward. “Indeed, it is good wine!” Jiang Yuan exclaimed.

In his mind, he made up his mind to buy it.

Even though the price was a bit steep for him, ten lower-grade spiritual stones per jar, it was worth it.

Soon, after both were full and satisfied, they heard someone behind them, “Thump! Thump! Thump!” going upstairs.

Once seated, they said, “Sigh! This Lin Hao died unexpectedly in the wilderness; how are we supposed to investigate this?”

“Exactly! We don’t have the ancient divine weapon that Senior Brother Xiao has, which can trace back to the events that transpired.”

“Even if we did, we don’t know how much time has passed. Who would spend so much vital blood on this, the last time Senior Brother Xiao sacrificed the ancient divine weapon to rewind the scene, the amount of vital blood consumed made him spend hundreds of lower-grade spiritual stones to purchase spirit medicine. It took him a month to recover!”

“Ah! Let’s not talk about it anymore, let’s drink first! How are we supposed to investigate based on that measly clue! Just drag it out!”

Hearing the conversation behind him, Jiang Yuan seemed thoughtful.

It seems the news of Lin Hao’s death already reached the Supreme Mystery Sect.

However, there’s no reason to worry about this matter. He had deliberately waited for Lin Hao to make a surprise attack. He only counterattacked when the tip of Lin Hao’s knife was half-an-inch from him.

Even if Xiao Ruochen were to use an ancient divine weapon to backtrack the events, he would have acted in self-defense and there isn’t any reason to penalize him.

Having these thoughts, Jiang Yuan went downstairs, his footsteps echoing on the wooden stairs.

One of the men looked back and noticed him.

“Hey, isn’t this Jiang Yuan from the Outer Court? I heard his Surging Wave Palm has reached great success and a single strike badly injured Sun Cheng! Do you think it was he who left the trace?”

“What are you thinking! The Surging Wave Palm with great success couldn’t be that powerful. Paying attention to him isn’t as important as paying more attention to Inner Court disciples. He hasn’t been in the sect for very long”

“You’re right!” The man nodded: “That kind of power could only be produced by someone who’s reached the Meridian Opening Realm level five or higher, has perfected the Surging Wave Palm or has gone beyond perfection!”

The person beside him shook his head: “Perfection or beyond, that’s unlikely! I have never heard about a disciple of this generation of the Supreme Mystery

Sect having such an exceptional comprehension, capable mastering a Surging Wave Palm beyond perfection!”

First floor.

Jiang Yuan packed up a pitcher of Biyu Spring Tea and then headed towards

Heaven Lead Peak.

Heaven Lead Peak.

One of the Seven Great Peaks of Supreme Mystery Sect.

A prodigious heaven genius had emerged from here before. His fame spread throughout the Eastern Region and he once ranked in the Supreme Gold List. Because of his rise, Heaven Lead Peak reached a new height, ranking first among the Seven Great Peaks.

Thus, it was named Heaven Lead Peak.

Unfortunately, he fell like a comet at the height of his fame.

“Stop!”

Just as Jiang Yuan reached the foot of Heaven Lead Peak, he was stopped by two people.

One fat and one thin, both were Outer Court disciples and had received a sect mission to guard the Mountain Gate.

They collected quite a number of achievement points every day. In Supreme Mystery Sect, every 100 achievement points could be exchanged for a low-grade spiritual stone.

Jiang Yuan said: “Please inform the Peak Master that an Outer Court Disciple, Jiang Yuan, is here to visit him.”

One of the thin guys chuckled: “Jiang Yuan, huh? I know you! But if you think

I’m going to ask Peak Master for you, you’re mistaken!”

“These days, there are at least eighty or hundred people like you who think that because Heaven Lead Peak is currently in decline, if you can get an appointment with the Peak Master, you can join Heaven Lead Peak early!”

The other chubby guy added: “Yeah! You have no idea how high the standards of the Peak Master are! He prefers quality over quantity!”

Jiang Yuan said impassively: “If you report it, you will know. Whether he sees me or not, it’s his decision, not something you guys can determine.”

“No way!” The two men shook their heads and smiled: “Preventing the night rat from disturbing the Old Master is our duty!”

Meanwhile.

At the top of Heaven Lead Peak.

Kong Nian, who was meditating, slowly opened his eyes.

“Strange, why do I suddenly feel a sense of spiritual connection?”

Then he swept his divine sense across, covering the entire Heaven Lead Peak.

“Jiang Yuan, it’s him!” Kong Nian’s face lit up with joy, and he immediately got up.

“Could it be that he’s changed his mind and wants to ask me for guidance?”

The next moment, he frowned.

How dare these two stop Jiang Yuan from coming up the mountain?

Didn’t my previous instructions get passed on to the ones guarding the mountain path?

Forget it, now’s not the time to dwell on it.

With a slight shift in his thoughts, the cloud mist at the foot of the mountain suddenly converged to form a human shape.

“You two are quite bold, daring to stop Jiang Yuan from coming up the mountain. Hasn’t anyone told you to let Jiang Yuan pass as soon as you see him?”

The two men, one fat and one thin, fell to their knees in fright.

“We apologize, Chief! We really didn’t know!”

“Forget it! Let him pass quickly. If you dare to interrupt him next time, I won’t let you off lightly!”

As the words fell, the cloud mist dissipated.

The two men wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads with lingering fear and then apologized with a smile: “Brother Jiang, please! We did not know the situation just now, don’t take it to heart!”

Jiang Yuan nodded, and continued to climb up the mountain path with Shu Xiaoxiao.

On both sides of the mountain path, strange patterns occasionally flashed, appearing on tree trunks or rocks.

These patterns were the array patterns left behind by various traps.

If someone were to stray from the path and attempt to trespass from other places.

Various deadly traps would spring up in the forest in an instant, turning it into an extremely dangerous place where even a great cultivator could be gravely wounded, if not killed.

After Jiang Yuan had gone far.

The chubby guy said, “So, Jiang Yuan has long since latched onto the great thigh of the Peak Master. Unlike us, we’re still struggling in the Outer Court!”

The thin guy also said, “Yeah! It’s so enviable! We guard the gate every day but he doesn’t bat an eye, but as soon as Jiang Yuan arrives at the foot of the mountain, he alerts the Old Master. What an attention!”

The two men looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

On the other side.

Kong Nian was somewhat excited and paced back and forth twice. Ever since he last saw Jiang Yuan, he has been somewhat obsessed.

For someone at his stage, a jade that touched his heart was a once-in-a-thousand-year opportunity.

A good master is hard to find, but a good disciple, especially a suitable successor, is even harder to find!

The talent Jiang Yuan showed completely aligns with his path.

For others, they only value the Divine Soul Path.

But he’s different, he values physical body’s talent more than the Divine Soul Pnth

Over the years, his research on Body Path has yielded fruitful results.

Now, he cultivates both his physical body and divine soul. He can’t say about other things, but in the territory of the Qianyuan Kingdom,

among existences of the same realm as him, he dares to proclaim himself invincible.

The self-confidence comes from a cultivation technique he created himself. A body refining technique!

Now his body refining technique is already producing results. He dares to catch treasure-level divine weapons with his bare hands.

Sensing that Jiang Yuan has reached halfway up the mountain, he calmed down, then raised his hand and waved.

In a pavilion, tea automatically appeared, steaming hot..
