Starting as The Young Master of A Pharmacy, He Trained Swordsmanship in Seclusion For Twenty Years - Chapter 101
“Has it been two days already?”
Lu Xuan opened his tightly shut eyes, a crimson light flashing within them.
Then, that crimson light quickly faded, revealing his originally deep, dark pupils.
Lu Xuan walked over to the table in the room. On top of it were nine exquisite small wooden boxes.
These exquisite small wooden boxes had all been opened; naturally, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures stored inside had all been refined by Lu Xuan into System Points.
Four medium-grade and five low-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures had already been consumed by Lu Xuan.
Host: Lu Xuan
Realm: Outer Aura Master
Cultivation Techniques: Blazing Flame Blade Art 8/9, Zephyr Step Technique 4/9 (Can Deduce), Indestructible Vajra Body 3/9 (Can Deduce).
Points: 251
Host, please confirm consumption of 90 points to deduce Indestructible Vajra Body.
Host, please confirm consumption of 110 points to deduce Zephyr Step Technique.
Lu Xuan glanced at the Points on the system panel; it had increased by another 180 points.
Two days ago, right after deducing the Blazing Flame Blade Art, he immediately took and consumed five portions of low-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures.
Part of the spiritual energy from these treasures had been absorbed by his body.
The remaining portion of spiritual energy was converted into System Points.
Lu Xuan estimated that one portion of a low-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasure could bring him about 60 System Points.
One portion of a medium-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasure could bring him 300 System Points.
It seemed the spiritual energy contained in a medium-grade treasure was roughly five times that of a low-grade one.
“If only there were more medium-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures.”
“I wonder if I could request some high-grade, or even top-grade, Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures from Tiandu.”
Lu Xuan was considering whether to apply to Tiandu for some high-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures.
If they were top-grade, even better; Lu Xuan certainly wouldn’t mind.
Currently, the medium-grade Heaven and Earth Spiritual Treasures in the prefectural city had been completely used up by Lu Xuan.
Even the low-grade ones only had ten portions left.
If it weren’t for the small quantity and the need to keep some in reserve, Lu Xuan would have really wanted to consume them all to deduce cultivation techniques.
With a thought, Lu Xuan put away the system panel.
He wasn’t in a hurry to deduce the Indestructible Vajra Body hard technique and the Zephyr Step Technique for now.
Now that Lu Xuan had broken through to the Outer Aura Master realm, his body was protected by fierce, peerless Aura energy.
Coupled with the Indestructible Vajra Body hard technique, his defenses had already reached an incredible level.
As for the Zephyr Step Technique, it was sufficient for Lu Xuan at his current stage. It was better to use the System Points to deduce the Blazing Flame Blade Art.
“The Phantom Shadow at the Fengyue Pavilion, a Li-grade supernatural entity.”
“Even Martial Artists at the Blood Refining stage died by its hand. It seems its Yin energy is stronger than that Human-Faced Specter from Dengfeng County.”
The room door was opened by an invisible force. Lu Xuan stepped out slowly.
His hands clasped behind his back, a calm expression on his face, Lu Xuan walked with swift, effortless steps to the courtyard gate and strode out.
At the courtyard entrance, over a dozen guards clad in white Mysterious Bird uniforms stood vigil meticulously.
The moment they saw Lu Xuan, they immediately clasped their hands and bowed in salute.
“Greetings, Lord Envoy!”
These men had all seen Lu Xuan’s true appearance, and with Li Chengfeng’s reminder, they all knew that this young man was temporarily holding authority over the White Path Prefecture city in Lord Envoy Li Chengfeng’s stead for a few months.
“Mm.”
Just as Lu Xuan acknowledged, one of the Mysterious Bird Guards stepped forward and reported to him.
“Lord Envoy, Lord Lin Mu has followed your orders and taken men to blockade that street in the West District.”
“Please follow me, Lord Envoy.”
White Path Prefecture City, West District, Pear Blossom Street.
In a large inn located in the middle of Pear Blossom Street, the main door was wide open. The wooden tables inside had all been stacked against the walls around the perimeter.
Only a massive wooden table remained in the center.
Next to the huge wooden table, there is a wooden chair covered with a thick blanket.
A grey-robed old man lay comfortably on the chair, his eyes slightly closed, his breathing seeming calm and measured.
At that moment, a figure appeared outside the inn, trying to bypass the Mysterious Bird Guards stationed at the door.
But he was intercepted by Lin Mu, who was guarding the entrance.
“You people from the Tianhai Gang are pushing it too far. Allowing Elder Hai to remain here is already a special exception from us Mysterious Bird Guards.”
“Hua Yunfei, you’d better disappear immediately, or I will report all of this to Lord Envoy.”
That figure was none other than the leader of the Tianhai Gang, Hua Yunfei.
Right now, Lin Mu’s face was cold, showing no courtesy to this man known as the leader of the prefectural city’s number one gang.
If that old monster Hua Tianhai, a Martial Artist at the Inner Qi stage, insisted on staying here, Lin Mu could do nothing about it, fine.
But now, Hua Yunfei, a mere Blood Refining stage Martial Artist, actually dared to ignore the warnings of the Mysterious Bird Guards and barge in so arrogantly.
The commotion outside caused the old man lying on the wooden chair to instantly open his eyes. Seeing the familiar face outside the inn door…
“Yunfei?”
In an instant, Lin Mu only felt an overwhelming pressure surge from behind him, pinning him in place.
And without Lin Mu blocking the way,
Hua Yunfei, seeing this, quickly moved past Lin Mu and entered the inn.
Watching Hua Yunfei walk into the inn, Lin Mu’s face turned livid, the color of eggplants, cursing inwardly.
Dammit, that old bastard Hua Tianhai, for a master of the Inner Qi stage to use his power to bully others like this.
If only he wasn’t a match for this old monster, Lin Mu really felt like taking his men and wiping out this Tianhai Gang right then.
“Yunfei, what is it?”
Hua Tianhai still lay flat on the wooden chair. Hua Yunfei hurriedly leaned down, bringing his head close to Hua Tianhai’s ear.
“Father, it seems that Lord Envoy of the Mysterious Bird Guards is not within White Path Prefecture city?”
These words from Hua Yunfei made Hua Tianhai take notice, a gleam flashing in his eyes.
“Such a thing? That old fellow Li Chengfeng was supposed to deal with the Fengyue Pavilion Phantom Shadow himself, wasn’t he?”
“How could he possibly not be in the prefectural city? Yunfei, are you sure it’s him?”
Strange. That old fellow Li Chengfeng gave the order to blockade this area.
That Phantom Shadow at the Fengyue Pavilion is infinitely close to an E-grade supernatural entity.
Only a Martial Artist at the Inner Qi stage can guarantee killing it without fail.
Could it be that those two old guys made a move?
Yu Hong, He Yan.
Among the Mysterious Bird Guards of White Path Prefecture city, these two old fellows are also Inner Qi stage Martial Artists.
One of them, that old guy Yu Hong, is at the same level as me, both at the minor achievement stage of Inner Qi.
“Yes, Father!”
“This is the information sent back by our informants stationed at the city gates.”
“Yesterday, that Lord Envoy, accompanied only by a woman, left through the city gate early in the morning.”
“Oh?”
“That old fellow Li Chengfeng isn’t here?”
Learning that Li Chengfeng was not in the prefectural city, the old man’s face revealed a trace of a smile.
However, before the old man could smile for long, a loud commotion suddenly came from outside the door.
“Lord Envoy!”
