The Strongest Dandy in the City-Chapter 1222 - 1215: Seizing the Opportunity

Ancient Martial World.

Within the grand hall of Cloud Soaring Palace.

A young man in his twenties sat in the chair at the very center of the grand hall. Clad in a white robe, his skin remarkably fair, his features handsome; however, an aura of gentle, unassuming delicacy permeated his presence. This young man, by the name of Liu Wuyuan, was the Young Master of White Snow Villa in the Earth Profound Realm, having reached the pinnacle of the fifth layer of the Spirit Communication Realm.

To the left and right of Liu Wuyuan stood an old man respectively. The elder on the left, garbed in grey, was named Qiu Yunshan. He was the Great Elder of White Snow Villa, with a cultivation that had reached the middle stage of the fourth layer of the Ocean Gathering Realm. Standing on the right, the elder in black was named Quan Muyan, the second Elder of White Snow Villa, his cultivation level having reached the initial stage of the third layer of the Ocean Gathering Realm.

These three individuals were the mysterious powerhouses behind both Cloud Soaring Palace and Earth Demon Hall. A middle-aged man in his forties walked respectfully into the grand hall. This man’s strength was at the peak of the Sky-Breaking Realm. He was an Elder from another sect who had personally witnessed Ye Chenfeng dealing with Li Dongtian and the others around Land of Trial. Moreover, Ye Chenfeng wasn’t particularly polite to them, so the middle-aged man immediately decided to report to Cloud Soaring Palace, and see if there was a chance for him to connect with these mysterious strongmen.

After entering the grand hall, the man became nervously tense and said, "The Sect Leaders of Cloud Soaring Palace and Earth Demon Hall were killed by a lad named Ye Chenfeng, I am here to..."

Before the middle-aged man could finish his sentence, Liu Wuyuan, sitting on the chair, revealed an impatient look. With a light swipe of his right index finger towards the man, the voice from the man’s throat abruptly ceased. A line of blood appeared on his neck, slowly widening until the middle-aged man’s head tumbled to the ground, his warm blood gushing forth. Only after that did the impatient look on Liu Wuyuan’s face slowly fade, replaced by a satisfied smile at the corner of his mouth.

Qiu Yunshan and Quan Muyan, standing by Liu Wuyuan’s side, didn’t show the slightest change in expression, as if Liu Wuyuan had merely squashed an insignificant ant.

Liu Wuyuan, looking at the Big Dipper star pattern on the back of his hand, said, "What a bunch of trash, people from the Lower Planes are nothing but garbage. Were it not for my own opportunity, I wouldn’t bother dealing with such trash. It’s just as well that the people from Cloud Soaring Palace and Earth Demon Hall are dead; after all, I’ve already discovered the place where my opportunity will arise."

Two years prior, Liu Wuyuan had by chance entered a mysterious ancient cave. Ever since he emerged with a Big Dipper star pattern on the back of his hand, he had been having the same dream every night. Over time, Liu Wuyuan understood that this dream was a massive opportunity. If he could seize it, not only would his strength soar dramatically, but his aptitude would improve, elevating him to the ranks of a true genius.

A month ago, when the Heaven-reaching Sea connected to the Ancient Martial World, Liu Wuyuan confirmed that his great opportunity originated from the Lower Plane’s Ancient Martial World. Hence, Liu Wuyuan, along with the Great Elder and the second Elder, hastened to the Ancient Martial World. With the help of Cloud Soaring Palace and Earth Demon Hall, he quickly located the place where his opportunity would appear.

The Elixir Pills given to Li Dongtian and Mo Wusha were actually quite ordinary, such that in the Earth Profound Realm, no one would bother to take them. Although these pills could allow someone in the Primordial Heaven Realm to leap directly to the Peak of the Transcendent Realm, after consuming them, the user’s strength would be unable to advance further for the rest of their life.

Liu Wuyuan, carrying an aura of gentleness, rose from his chair and declared, "In two days, the time for my opportunity will come. We could almost set off for Swamp of Death now. As long as I can secure this opportunity, I, Liu Wuyuan, will lead White Snow Villa to rise within the Earth Profound Realm."

"Let us extend our congratulations to the Young Master in advance. The Valley Master is also holding very high expectations for the Young Master, which is why he has allowed the two of us to accompany the Young Master to the Ancient Martial World," said the Great Elder respectfully.

Before Liu Wuyuan and his party set out for the Swamp of Death, Ye Chenfeng had also emerged from the Illusory Realm. The White Shadow Person, Wu Fengxian, and the Black Shadow Person, Jiang Yuntian, had described to Ye Chenfeng the appearance of the place where the great opportunity was said to appear. However, neither Wu Fengxian nor Jiang Yuntian knew the name of this place. After hearing their description, Ye Chenfeng had no leads in his mind, so he recounted the information from Wu Fengxian and Jiang Yuntian to Sun Boyi and the others from the Suns.

After listening to Ye Chenfeng’s account, Sun Boyi and the people of the Suns shook their heads. However, after pondering for a moment, Lie Yan, the Valley Master of Red Flame Valley, spoke, "Brother Ye, after hearing your description, I think the place you’re talking about is very likely the Swamp of Death."

"Entering the Swamp of Death is extremely dangerous even for the Sky-Breaking Realm experts. However, with Brother Ye’s strength, it shouldn’t be a big problem. Brother Ye, why do you want to go to the Swamp of Death? It’s almost a two-day journey from here. If you do want to go, I can accompany you since you do not know the way," he said.

When Ye Chenfeng heard that it would take almost two days to reach the Swamp of Death from here, his expression immediately became anxious. Wasn’t the great opportunity going to appear in two nights? He must set off for the Swamp of Death immediately. Since he indeed did not know the way, all he could do was let Lie Yan lead the way. As for the others, at the request of Ye Chenfeng, they had to stay in the cave.

......

Two days later.

The sky slowly darkened.

After two days of non-stop travel, Ye Chenfeng and Lie Yan arrived at the edge of a forest. Lie Yan said, "Brother Ye, the Swamp of Death is inside this forest. You... "

Ye Chenfeng suddenly interrupted Lie Yan, quickly pulled him behind a huge boulder in the distance, and asked Lie Yan to conceal his presence. As Lie Yan wondered why, three figures emerged from the Swamp of Death—it was Liu Wuyuan, Qiu Yunshan, and Quan Muyan!

Upon seeing them, Lie Yan’s face changed dramatically, and he whispered, "Brother Ye, these three are powerhouses backed by Cloud Soaring Palace and Earth Demon Hall. I’ve seen them from afar before. How come they are also here in the Swamp of Death?"

Hearing Lie Yan’s words, Ye Chenfeng frowned even more tightly. Just at that moment, Jiang Yuntian’s slightly somber voice echoed in Ye Chenfeng’s mind, "Kid, it seems you have some bad luck! These three are definitely from the Earth Profound Realm. One of them is at the Peak of the Spirit Communication Realm’s Fifth Layer, another at the Initial Stage of the Ocean Gathering Realm’s Third Layer, and the last one at the Middle Stage of the Ocean Gathering Realm’s Fourth Layer. If you confront them head-on, you wouldn’t even be enough to fill the gaps between their teeth."

Wu Fengxian’s voice followed soon after, "Little guy, people from the Earth Profound Realm wouldn’t come here for no reason. It seems they also know about the great opportunity happening here tonight. Now, if you want to seize this great opportunity, you’ll have to snatch it from their hands."

The Peak of the Spirit Communication Realm’s Fifth Layer? Plus two Ocean Gathering Realm experts?

To snatch the opportunity from the hands of Liu Wuyuan and the other two put enormous pressure on Ye Chenfeng. However, did he have any other choice now? He had no alternative.

Perhaps sensing the pressure in Ye Chenfeng’s emotions, Wu Fengxian continued, "Kid, actually, the situation isn’t as bad as you think. Just relax a little; this opportunity won’t be so easily obtained. Maybe these three could even be of help to you! Besides, with us two here, your chances of acquiring this great opportunity are over ninety percent."

"Right, kid, I was just joking with you before. Initially, your chances of getting this opportunity were only fifty percent, but with these three, your chances are now well over ninety percent," laughed Jiang Yuntian.
