The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 161: The People Blocking the Entrance of the Jing Family
Chapter 161: Chapter 161: The People Blocking the Entrance of the Jing Family
"Whoosh!"
In the wilderness, a cyan figure dashed as fast as lightning!
The cyan figure was none other than Jing Yan, who had returned to Donglin City from Duyang City. It had been nearly twenty days since he bid farewell to Liu Xiaoyue. Donglin City was now faintly visible in his sight.
During this journey, Jing Yan sometimes used the Sky Wings to speed up his travel, but he wasn’t in a hurry. Whenever he used up a lot of Primordial Energy, he would find a place to use Top-grade Spirit Stones to recuperate.
When he killed Gao Yan, at the Mayor Mansion of Gao Yan, Jing Yan obtained several Top-grade Spirit Stones. In the Duyang City Lord Mansion, Jing Yan stayed for more than ten days, and during this time, besides healing, he also exchanged for a large number of Top-grade Spirit Stones at Duyang’s First Business Building.
Because of his relationship with the City Lord, and since the Business Building was also a property of the City Lord Mansion, his 10,000 Spirit Stones could be exchanged for three Top-grade Spirit Stones there—much more economical than buying at the Treasure Pavilion in Donglin’s First Building. The Top-grade Spirit Stones in the Treasure Pavilion were worth four thousand ordinary spiritual stones.
Jing Yan had over two hundred thousand ordinary spiritual stones on him, and he had taken out a huge amount of a hundred thousand to buy Top-grade Spirit Stones, purchasing a total of thirty Top-grade Spirit Stones.
Thus, Jing Yan didn’t have to worry about running out of Top-grade Spirit Stones for a while.
In these nearly twenty days, his Cultivation had also climbed steadily, gradually approaching the pinnacle of the Early Innate Realm. With this rate of cultivation, it would not take long for Jing Yan to attempt to advance to the Innate Middle Stage realm.
"Donglin City!" After the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Jing Yan arrived at the city gate, where he paused for a moment just outside.
This departure from Donglin City had lasted two to three months. Before leaving, Jing Yan still had a Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven Cultivation, but after leaving, he had already become a strong practitioner of the Innate Realm.
"Whoosh!"
After entering the city, Jing Yan’s figure flickered, rapidly approaching the Jing Family Mansion in the west district.
"Hmm?" As he raced quickly, Jing Yan’s brow furrowed.
That’s because he could hear some discussions about the Jing Family.
"This time, the Jing Family has really lost face! If this continues, the third largest family in Donglin City may change."
"Yeah... It’s unbelievable that the Jing Family disciples have no backbone at all, and even when people block their doorway, they still dare not show their faces."
"Hmph, the Jing Family? Laughable indeed. If it weren’t for the Old Clan Leader Jing Tian leading the Jing Family to rise and push the Cai Family out of the third family position, what right would the Jing Family have to become the third largest family in Donglin City?"
"Watch, maybe this time, the Cai Family can take the opportunity to become the third family again!" fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
"..."
Jing Yan raced along the spacious streets, his speed so fast that weaker Martial Artists couldn’t see him at all, while even the stronger ones could only catch a blurry afterimage.
Thus, none of the discussing Martial Artists recognized that the person who had just passed by was Jing Yan of the Jing Family.
Of course, these Martial Artists might have heard of the name Jing Yan but might not be able to recognize him.
"What’s going on? Someone is blocking the Jing Family’s door?" Hearing the discussions, Jing Yan’s brow raised slightly. Who was so bold to dare block the door of the Jing Family?
The Jing Family, after all, was still considered the third largest family in Donglin City, and even the first-ranked Zhao Family wouldn’t act so recklessly, would they?
"Could it be that the Zhao Family, unable to kill me, acts out of resentment and uses this method to vent their anger?" Jing Yan chuckled coldly, a chill emerging in his heart.
Zhao Family, let’s see how long you can keep jumping around.
Jing Yan sped up again, like a bolt of lightning heading towards the family mansion in the west district.
Before the Jing Family Mansion, several figures stood on a temporarily erected fighting stage, their faces full of smiles as they looked towards the direction of the main gate of the Jing Family Mansion.
There were several uniformed guards, shouting loudly.
"Is there really no one in the Jing Family brave enough to come out?"
"Hahaha! The Jing Family disciples, every last one of them is trash, turtles cowering in their shells!"
"A big family like Donglin City’s third, and they don’t have a single man with guts? How does such a family deserve the title of the third family?"
The guards were spewing out foul language, deliberately using their Primordial Energy to make their voices reach further. Not only could those inside the Jing Family Mansion hear them, but also the Martial Artists on the nearby streets.
Many idle Martial Artists were also watching from a distance, pointing and talking, most with smiles on their faces, evidently enjoying the spectacle.
The figures on the stage were all rather young, squinting their eyes and looking quite at ease. One even waved a folding fan in his hand.
"The Jing Family, nothing to speak of, huh! Haha, I thought a city’s third-ranked family would have a strong foundation. Now it seems they’re just a bunch of trash!" A man dressed in a white robe, fan in hand, was full of mockery in his speech.
"Brother Suo Wen is absolutely right, these young members of the Jing Family are all worthless, not one of them worth mentioning. Hahaha, we’ve set up this fighting stage here for ten days, right? Other than on the first day, when some arrogant fool dared to come out and shout a few words, and after we beat him until he was crippled, no one has dared to come out since," a man dressed in a black robe said, taking over the conversation.
This man in black was recognized by many as Zhao Yifeng, a talented young Martial Artist of the Zhao Family, and also a practitioner of the Innate Realm. Of course, to call him young was relative; he was over thirty years old already, and he was also a student at one of the Three Major Academies, Divine Wind Academy.
Zhao Yifeng spoke with respect to the man in white, clearly holding him in high regard.
"Brother Suo Wen, you’re from Divine Wind Academy, so you should know about a guy called Jing Yan from the Jing Family. This guy has also entered Divine Wind Academy, but was later expelled. He’s somewhat peculiar. After being expelled, many thought he would completely fall and become an utter waste, but unexpectedly, he rose again not long after. Recently, in the Jing Family’s clan competition, with his Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven Cultivation, he actually defeated Jing Tianlong from the Jing Family. Jing Tianlong is a student of Red Lotus Academy and quite strong," a man dressed in a dark red robe added, laughing a bit.
"Oh, I know of this Jing Yan. When he entered Divine Wind Academy, wasn’t he only sixteen? He was one of the youngest to enter Divine Wind Academy in recent decades. At that time, many in Divine Wind Academy had high hopes for him. Who would’ve thought his realm would keep falling, haha, this guy is just a waste, not worth mentioning," Suo Wen, dressed in a white robe, said with a corner of his mouth curled in a cold sneer, full of scorn.
