I will become the Demon Immortal known to the whole world-Chapter 54 - Leiduan Mountain
Chapter 54: Chapter 54 Leiduan Mountain
Chapter 54 -54 Leiduan Mountain
Time swiftly passed by, and four days had gone, it was now early morning.
Liang Hui was practicing his boxing technique in the courtyard, with the sound of thunderous explosions following each punch and kick.
Suddenly, he glanced towards the door and saw a young girl dressed in goose-yellow brocade, curiously observing him.
Their gazes met, and the girl’s lively eyes involuntarily drooped.
“Who’s there?”
“Senior, my name is Huang Ying, my mother sent me to deliver the weapon we prepared for you.”
Under her naive speech,
Two servants dressed as great men were carrying a bronze spear together, causing the ground to tremble slightly with every step they took.
At the same time, two maids were also present, one holding a silver longbow and the other carrying a set of silver armor.
“Senior, please check if they are suitable for you. If not, there’s still time to exchange them.”
Liang Hui, without hesitation, reached out and grasped the spear that the two great men had brought before him.
It didn’t feel as rough and cold as he had imagined, but rather smooth and warm, like a warm jade.
Flexing his arm, the bronze spear instantly left the grasp of the two men.
Then, he thrust it forward abruptly!
Boom!
At this moment, the ground shook, and the entire courtyard trembled.
“Great spear!”
Liang Hui stood with the spear in hand and with great detail caressed its shaft.
At this point, Huang Ying too regained her composure and quickly echoed, “This spear is forged from Green Rock Jade, exceptional in both toughness and sharpness. Most importantly, Green Rock Jade poses almost no hindrance to Inner Strength.”
Upon hearing this, Liang Hui infused his own Inner Strength into it and, indeed, felt no impedance.
“Does this spear have a name?”
“The weapon is a gift to the senior, so it is only right for the senior to name it.”
“Then it shall be called ‘Green Glaze Spear’!”
He planted the spear into the ground and took the silver longbow from the maid next to him.
His fingers lightly touched the bowstring, pulling it back!
The bow was drawn into a full moon.
He felt the power emanating from the bow, and gave a slight nod of approval.
Though it was a bit less powerful than he desired, it was still far superior to the bow he currently owned.
Only after that did he turn his attention to the last maid, who was cradling the silver armor.
“I don’t recall asking for such armor, Miss Huang Ying.”
The tone of Liang Hui’s voice unconsciously softened by a few degrees, for he could still clearly distinguish good from bad.
“Senior has fought and risked life for our family. It’s only natural that we do our utmost to ensure your safety,” said Huang Ying as she stepped forward and stopped a few meters in front of Liang Hui, her expression earnest.
“Madam Huang has been thoughtful,” Liang Hui replied as he took the silver armor and tested its hardness to his satisfaction.
“Senior, why not try it on and see if it fits?”
“Very well!”
Soon, a tall figure clad in silver armor, with a silver bow on his back and a long spear in hand, appeared in the courtyard.
Huang Ying looked at the mask with a hint of regret in her eyes.
At that moment, her curiosity about the man behind the mask reached an all-time high.
Suddenly, Liang Hui’s hand reached for the mask on his face.
If his so-called ‘true’ face could put the Huang family at ease, then their hearts might also settle some.
He considered it a fair exchange and a way to soothe in return for their sincerity.
The black iron mask was slowly removed,
Revealing upward-slanting thick eyebrows which stood above his eyes like two swords, eyes bright and large, as clear and spirited as stars.
The young man was handsome and stood holding the spear, giving off an aura of strength that seemed capable of suppressing everything in all directions.
His gaze swept around, and no one dared to meet his eyes.
“The mask is a bit dirty, do you have a piece of brocade cloth?” The young man turned to a maid by his side and spoke softly.
“Senior, I have just the thing,” said Huang Ying, offering a piece of brocade cloth before the maid could reply.
“Thank you,” he said.
Having received the brocaded cloth, he casually began to wipe his mask.
By his side, Huang Ying, while sizing up the youth that was completely different from the scions of the major clans, initiated conversation:
“Should I still address you as my senior?”
“Just call me Tai Yi.”
Huang Yao chuckled lightly, looking at the armor on the young man.
“Brother Tai Yi, the armor seems to fit you very well.”
“Indeed, it fits well. You all have taken great care.”
“Then, in three days, I shall entrust my daughter’s safety to you.”
“Hmm.”
Liang Hui put the mask back on his face.
Huang Ying also left the place, accompanied by her servants.
…
Half a day later.
In Leiji City, within the main branch of the Huang Family, the backyard.
Madam Huang was seated on a grandmaster’s chair, with Huang Ying holding her hand.
She recounted everything that happened half a day earlier to her mother without any reservation.
“Mother, what do you think his intention is? Is it some kind of seduction tactic?”
“However, his temperament is so unique; he’s nothing like big brother or the other scions of major families that I have met, it’s as if…”
“As if a ferocious, man-eating tiger compared to a domestic cat,” Madam Huang said softly, her eyes deep and thoughtful.
After a pause, she caressed her daughter’s palm, “He is an extremely intelligent and frightening person who always makes the best choices at the most appropriate times.”
“Therefore, I am not worried about your safety on the journey to Thunder Flame Secret Realm.”
“What worries me is your foolish and arrogant brother! If it wasn’t for the thousand-year-old agreement among the three great families, I certainly wouldn’t allow him to participate in this secret realm exploration.”
A trace of helplessness crossed Madam Huang’s expression.
“Actually, brother is not weak at all! He’s quite strong,” Huang Ying weakly retorted.
“Not weak! Quite strong!”
A hint of disdain appeared on Madam Huang’s face—she knew very well what level her own son was at.
“Tai Yi, within ten breaths, dispatches five Martial Artists of the same level as easily as slicing vegetables—that is strength!”
“Jin Family Eldest Young Master, alone, traverses a million miles of mountains and rivers and survives—that is also strength!”
“And him? He wins against a servant within dozens of moves?”
For a moment, Huang Ying had nothing to say.
After a while, she slowly spoke up, “How about letting big brother go with Tai Yi, and I with another person?”
“No need, you should go with Tai Yi. I’m worried that Tai Yi might just slaughter your brother outright, and then we would have an enemy instead,” Madam Huang’s eyes flickered with a thought, but she concealed it quickly.
…
Of course, Liang Hui was unaware of the events that occurred within the Huang Residence, as he continued to focus all his energy on his training.
The last three days passed in a flash.
Dressed in silver armor, carrying a silver bow, and holding a long spear, he leaned against the wall, his eyes closed in wait.
His consciousness delved into his mind, gauging the progress of his seven days of training.
(Bone Refining 59.98%)
Bone Refining would not impede him for many more days.
Only when he sensed movement in the courtyard did Liang Hui open his eyes.
A boat emanating pale yellow radiance descended from the sky and came to a halt one meter above the ground.

“Brother Tai Yi, aboard the ship!” The naive voice came from a woman wearing light yellow armor.
Thump!
With a light leap, Liang Hui was on the ship, nodding at Madam Huang, who stood at the forefront.
He consciously moved to Huang Ying’s side and began to scrutinize the other people on the ship.
There were about twenty individuals, nine from the Huang Family and over ten others dressed differently.
“Brother Tai Yi, our destination for this journey is Leiduan Mountain, three thousand li north of Leiji City,” said Huang Ying.
“That’s where we need to enter the secret realm.”
