C1163 Zhang Lingyu of the God of Palm Faction.
The Lovers Inn.
As one of the eight great ancestors, the Lovers Inn was owned by one of the eight great ancestors. Although it was not a well-known establishment in the Blood Sea City, its reputation was not weak.
However, because the price of the Lovers Inn was very high, ordinary cultivators were unable to stay here.
If the entire Blood Sea City was considered a large city, then the Lovers Inn was the largest restaurant.
For some people with high status, it was very easy for them to enter the Lovers Inn.
However, for most ordinary people, their status and spending level limited their entry into the Lovers Inn.
However, for Ling Jian, the Lovers Inn's price was not within his range of tolerance.
When he left the Sky Forest Domain and headed to the Blood Sea City, Fairy Yin Huan had already given him many high-grade spirit stones.
Although he had only taken away a portion, it was more than enough.
At the very least, it was more than enough for him to spend these high-grade spirit stones in the Lovers Inn.
After Ling Jian entered the Lovers Inn, he immediately sized up the entire place.
There were not many people on the first floor of the restaurant. There was only one person sitting in a corner.
It was a very young woman. She had disguised herself as a man. Although she could hide from most cultivators, Jing Bian knew that she was a woman when he first saw her.
He had to admit that this cultivator’s disguise was very brilliant. Ordinary cultivators would not be able to tell that he was a man disguised as a woman.
However, to Ling Jian, this was nothing. He could sense the clues in an instant.
After all, this woman was very beautiful. Although she was disguised as a man, she was still very beautiful even when wearing a man’s clothes. Her delicate facial features, fair skin, and lively eyes were like a work of art.
If a beautiful woman’s score was 50 points, then this beautiful woman’s score was definitely above 95 points. Her beauty was not inferior to Fairy Yin Huan’s.
Apart from this, Ling Jian’s own Spiritual Sense was too powerful.
After all, although his cultivation was only at the intermediate-stage of the Sage Realm, his Spiritual Sense was so powerful that even some cultivators at the early-stage of the Sage Spirit Realm could not compare to him.
Therefore, under such a powerful spiritual consciousness, any disguise of the woman would be quickly discovered.
“Ling Jian, it seems that you have also seen through it. This is a female cultivator disguised as a male.” Wan Jie’s voice sounded in Ling Jian’s mind.
His voice carried a smile. “Although this little girl’s cultivation has already reached the late stage of the Saint Realm, do you know that her age is only around 150 years old? Her talent is still very good.”
Hearing this, Ling Jian couldn’t help but nod his head.
To be able to reach the late stage of the Saint Realm at 150 years old, this kind of talent was indeed very stunning.
Although this kind of talent couldn’t be compared to him, it was definitely outstanding among his peers.
At this time, as Ling Jian’s gaze was cast onto this woman, this woman also sensed it. Originally, she was looking at the scenery outside, but she also looked towards Ling Jian’s direction.
In an instant, their gazes met.
However, to Ling Jian, he didn’t feel anything. His heart was incomparably calm, but on the other side, that woman glared at Ling Jian fiercely, and then couldn’t help but snort coldly. It was as though she was warning Ling Jian.
“Eh, interesting.”
However, just as he was looking at Ling Jian, he suddenly let out a surprised sound, as if he had sensed something that interested him.
“I never thought that she was actually quite capable. She has already reached the middle stage of the Saint Realm at the age of 100.”
Zhang Linyu glanced at Ling Jian with interest. He had never thought that Ling Jian’s cultivation would be so strong. Although he looked to be less than 100 years old, his cultivation was only at the early stage of the Saint Realm. However, he had never thought that Ling Jian’s cultivation had actually reached the middle stage of the Saint Realm.
Moreover, at that time, he had reached the fourth place on the Zhongtian Ranking.
However, because he had broken through to the middle stage of the Saint Realm, he was already 100 years old at that time, so he was unable to continue to remain on the Zhongtian Ranking.
Now, however, he saw that Ling Jian’s cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Saint Realm, and he was less than 100 years old. Didn’t that mean that Ling Jian’s cultivation talent was countless times stronger than his?
“Now, besides the sixth and eighth place on the Zhongtian Ranking, the rest of the top ten are all people from my Blood Sea Sect.”
“Only two of the top ten have reached the middle stage of the Saint Realm. The rest are all at the late stage of the Saint Realm. I never thought that I would actually meet such an existence here. Who is he other than those two?”
Zhang Lingyu looked at Ling Jian, and the more he looked at Ling Jian, the more curious he became.
Even though he had left the Middle Heaven Ranking, he was still very concerned about the changes in the ranking.
Nalan Yanran was the existence that could break the records of the entire Middle Heaven Ranking, and a person who had passed the heavenly lightning was naturally not to be underestimated.
Moreover, there was another cultivator who was at the intermediate stage of the Saint Realm.
He was the strongest of the eight great ancestors of the Blood Sea Sect, and his name was Huang Aotian.
Huang Aotian was ranked second on the Middle Heaven Ranking. Even though he had not passed the nine bolts of heavenly lightning like Nalan Yanran had, he had also passed eight bolts of heavenly lightning.
He was the only one who had reached the intermediate stage of the Saint Realm on the Middle Heaven Ranking before Nalan Yanran had appeared.
Even though he had been suppressed by Nalan Yanran’s appearance, his reputation was still very tyrannical on the Middle Heaven Ranking.
However, one of them was the personal disciple of the Blood Saint Ling, the sect master of the Blood Sea Sect, while the other was the grandson of the strongest ancestor of the eight great ancestors. He had lived in the Blood Sea Sect since he was young, so his cultivation had been able to break through to the intermediate stage of the Saint Realm so quickly. He was even able to suppress many people who had reached the late stage of the Saint Realm on the ranking.
What exactly did this kid in front of him experience? How did he reach such an achievement? He could be compared to Nalan Yanran and Huang Aotian.
Ling Jian was also not clear about himself at this time. He was just looked at twice. However, Zhang Linyu had already thought of so many things in his heart.
Ling Jian quickly walked to the front desk of the hotel and said, “Prepare a good room for me.”
“Young Master, are you staying here? How long are you staying for?” The manager of the hotel was an old man who had reached the initial stage of the Saint Realm. Although his cultivation was not very high, he was more than enough to be a manager of a hotel.
“Three days,” Ling Jian said indifferently.
“Okay. One hundred and fifty high-grade spirit stones per day here. If it’s three days, then it’s four hundred and fifty high-grade spirit stones,” the manager said with a smile.
After the manager said this, Ling Jian did not hesitate. He slapped the Heavenly Spirit Sack on his waist with his hands, and four hundred and fifty high-grade spirit stones were immediately taken out.
The manager of the Lovers’ Inn took the four hundred and fifty high-grade spirit stones with a smile and was ready to find a servant to take Ling Jian to the upper room.
However, at this time, something suddenly happened.
“Wait, wait.”
A furious voice came from outside the Lovers’ Inn. Before the voice completely faded, a group of Saint Realm cultivators rushed in aggressively from the entrance of the Lovers’ Inn.
These cultivators were led by three cultivators who had reached the late stage of the Saint Realm. After entering the restaurant, their eyes swept across the entire restaurant before locking onto Ling Jian.
“Brat, did you kill me? Someone from the Myriad Fist Emperor’s lineage.” One of the three cultivators who were leading the group of cultivators immediately asked after seeing Ling Jian.
The cultivators behind him all locked onto Ling Jian at the same time. It was as if they would attack and kill Ling Jian if Ling Jian admitted to it.
In a corner of the restaurant, Zhang Linyu was still sizing Ling Jian up. However, his expression changed slightly after hearing this.
He did not expect Ling Jian to kill someone from the Myriad Spring Emperor’s lineage.
He was quite bold.
“It’s me.” Ling Jian did not hide anything. He glanced at the group of cultivators at the Saint Realm before nodding his head and admitting it.
“It’s really you, kid.” The cultivator at the late stage of the Saint Realm became even colder after hearing this.
He glanced at Ling Jian with an unfriendly expression. In the next moment, he suddenly turned around and said, “Kill him.”
“Yes.”
Behind the three old men of the late stage of the Saint Realm, the cultivators of the Myriad Fists Emperor’s lineage who had followed behind them all replied in unison. Immediately, numerous shocking and fierce auras were emitted from their bodies, causing the entire first floor of the restaurant to be occupied by this wild and violent Spiritual Energy aura.
One must know that other than the parts, there were still some decorations on the first floor of the restaurant.
There were other decorations in the first floor, and they were also resting there.
However, the Myriad Spring Huang’s lineage did not pay attention to them. Their gazes were all locked onto Ling Jian, and a great battle was about to erupt.
“My lords, this place is the territory of our restaurant. This little brother is even a distinguished guest of our restaurant. It is not appropriate for you to attack here, right?” The manager of the restaurant spoke. His gaze looked at the three leading people of the Myriad Spring Huang’s lineage. Although his own cultivation was merely at the initial stage of the Saint Realm, he did not show any fear.
As for the reason, it was also very simple and very confident. This was because he was a member of the Divine Master’s lineage.
“Esteemed guest, do you really think that we are blind? He has just entered the restaurant, yet you guys are saying that he is an esteemed guest. Then, we have just entered the restaurant as well. Why are you saying that he is not an esteemed guest?” One of the elders spoke coldly when he heard the manager of the restaurant.
“It is true that he has just entered the restaurant. However, he has already paid the deposit in advance. Therefore, he is not an esteemed guest even though you guys have not paid the deposit yet. On the other hand, he is an esteemed guest of our restaurant.” The manager of the restaurant spoke in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. Meanwhile, he spoke in a very confident manner.
Not only that, the manager of the restaurant had also taken out all the high-grade spirit stones that he had withdrawn earlier and placed them before the eyes of the people of the Ten Thousand Fists Emperor Sect. He was shaking them around. It was obvious that he was doing something proper.
When the manager of the restaurant acted in this manner, the cultivators of the Ten Thousand Fists Empire revealed hesitant expressions.
Similarly, they were very clear about the identity of the owner of the restaurant. He was a member of the Master God Sect.
If this was half a year ago, perhaps the people of the Ten Thousand Fists Empire would not have felt any fear when they faced the people of the Spirit God Sect.
But now, Wan Quan Huang was already dead, while the ancestor of the God of Palm Fist Sect was still cultivating in the Blood Sea Sect.
Although the current Fist Emperor’s bloodline was still one of the eight great bloodlines of the Blood Sea Sect, it had fallen a lot compared to the past.
“Humph, this kid actually killed a member of my Fist Emperor’s bloodline. No matter what, he has to give us an explanation. Otherwise, we can only kill him.” After a moment of silence, the people of the Fist Emperor’s bloodline were hesitant, but they didn’t shrink back in the end. Instead, they directly stated their final intention.
After all, they didn’t come to cause trouble on their own initiative, but because Ling Jian had already killed a member of the Fist Emperor’s bloodline. Therefore, in such a situation, it would be a reason to cause trouble in the Lovers Inn.
Moreover, if they didn’t deal with this matter, they might make the other eight great bloodlines look down on them even more.
At that time, the situation of the entire Fist Emperor’s bloodline might become very worrying.
“You.”
At this moment, the boss of the Lovers Inn finally felt boundless fury. Although he wanted to stop them, his own cultivation was only at the initial stage of the Saint Realm, so he could only grit his teeth and roar.
“Don’t bother with him. Let’s attack.” One of the three elders spoke. He waved his hand and charged at Ling Jian.
Ling Jian was calm. He stood there calmly. The people from the Myriad Fist Emperor’s faction attacked him. His eyes were cold. He was about to attack.
However, before Ling Jian could attack, he felt an invisible force appearing in front of him. It exploded not far away.
The force was not strong, but it still exploded in front of him.1
The cultivators from the Myriad Spring Emperor’s faction did not expect someone to intervene at this moment. They were caught off guard and were hit by the force.
“Who is it?” The Myriad Fist Emperor’s faction was furious. They gritted their teeth and said, “How dare you attack the people from my Myriad Fist Emperor’s faction?”
“What? Do you think your Myriad Fist Emperor’s faction is powerful?” A clear voice came from the cultivator.
Zhang Lingyu also slowly stood up from his seat in the corner. After which, he slowly walked towards Ling Jian’s position.
The owner of the Lianyang Tavern saw Zhang Lingyu walking out and was prepared to hurriedly bow to Zhang Lingyu. However, his body suddenly paused. This was because he had also recalled the words that Zhang Lingyu had said to him earlier.
The owner merely nodded towards Zhang Lingyu’s position. After which, he did not continue speaking. Instead, he quietly observed the situation.
“Brat, who are you?”
Moreover, almost at the same time that Zhang Lingyu moved, the Wan Quan Huang faction’s members all shot their gazes onto Zhang Lingyu. It was as though tens of thousands of long swords were being prepared to be shot at him.
Zhang Lingyu’s gaze swept over the Wan Quan Huang faction’s cultivators one by one. However, he did not directly reply. Instead, he smiled faintly and said, “Your Wan Quan Huang faction is really bold. You actually dare to make a move in the territory of my God Hand faction. Don’t you know how to write the word ‘death’?”
