C553 Exit Seclusion
Facing Mu Qiurou, it could be said that it was a piece of cake for him to deal with her. It was as effortless as blowing off dust. However, if he were to face a fierce beast, he might not even be able to defeat it even if it was a peak middle stage super fierce beast. Moreover, in the end, Ling Jian's identity was still too mysterious.
He knew that such a figure did not exist in Huntian City, but it did not mean that other cities did not have such a figure. Ling Jian most likely came from other cities.
Offending a genius from an unknown family for a few low-grade spirit stones was obviously not a wise move.
Therefore, he decisively chose to give up.
Fortunately, he chose to give up at this time and did not have any crooked thoughts. Otherwise, based on Ling Jian's character, perhaps Elder Cang would end up in a miserable state today.
The six demons and Ling Jian's minds were connected. Everything that happened outside... Naturally, it was impossible to hide from Ling Jian. Now, he had come into contact with the situation in the entire Mixed Heaven City. The strongest cultivator in this city was only at the pinnacle of the Heavenly Spirit Path. As long as he wanted to leave... He could leave at any time.
For a moment, the Heavenly Coming Inn's room seemed strangely quiet.
Mu Qiurou and the phantom of the Soaring Sword formed by the Six Demons did not continue to speak, and Cang Lao did not dare to speak carelessly.
However, Mu Qiurou was in an extremely good mood. The appearance of the Six Demons just now had intimidated the experts of the Heavenly Spirit Path. It could be imagined that as their master, Ling Jian's strength had probably made another breakthrough.
This was definitely the best news in the current chaotic Chaotic Sky City.
However, this silence did not last for long. In less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, a crisp sound of a door opening was heard from both sides of the confrontation. The place where the door opened was precisely in front of Ling Jian's heaven-grade room.
At this moment, Ling Jian walked out from his cultivation.
As the door opened, everyone's gazes immediately shot over. Then, they saw Ling Jian, who was dressed in white, with a tall and slender body. He was as straight as a spear shaft, but the aura emitted from his body was not weak at all. He gave off a young pressure that did not belong to him at his age.
Even the Spiritual Energy fluctuations emitted from Cang Lao's body did not have this kind of charm.
This was clearly a manifestation of condensing spiritual energy to the extreme. In this way, the original mystery was covered with a faint veil, making it even more mysterious and unfathomable.
Ling Jian quickly walked to the confrontation between the two parties. There was no change in his gaze, and he clearly knew what had happened earlier.
"Let's go."
He merely glanced indifferently at Cang Lao and the others before saying no more.
Mu Qiurou and the Six Demons followed behind him.
When they passed by Cang Lao and the others, the group of people from the Heavenly Coming Inn dispersed and took the initiative to open up a path for them.
Cang Lao's gaze swept over Ling Jian. Ling Jian's cultivation was completely exposed in his line of sight. If it was only his cultivation, then he wouldn't be afraid at all. However, what he was even more afraid of was Ling Jian's identity.
Just as Ling Jian and the others were about to disappear from their line of sight, suddenly, an ear piercing sound of rushing wind rang out. Cang Lao's expression suddenly changed. Among the group, he was the one with the highest cultivation, so his reaction was also the fastest.
Immediately, he stretched out his hand and grabbed. At the same time, an item appeared before his eyes. After opening his palm again, two low grade spirit stones appeared.
Elder Cang twisted his slightly painful palm. Previously, it seemed like a simple exchange of blows. However, it was actually an extremely obscure exchange of blows. He had never thought that it would happen. The opponent was clearly only at the Earth Spirit Dao, but the spiritual energy that erupted from him... Even he, an expert of the Heaven Spirit Society, was shocked.
Until Ling Jian and the others completely disappeared.
The innkeeper of the Heavenly Coming Inn walked in front of Cang Lao and said with a trembling voice, "Cang Lao, can you tell who this young man is? He shouldn't be a member of our Mixed Heaven City. That ferocious beast of his is really terrifying."
The innkeeper still had a lingering fear in his voice. Previously, he had only secretly glanced at the Six Demons and had already felt an endless pressure. Fortunately, it wasn't a battle between the two of them. Otherwise, he would have died a long time ago.
Cang Lao was silent for a long time when he heard this. Finally, he opened his mouth and said, "He is not a member of the Mixed Heaven City. However, I do not think that fierce beast is the most terrifying. That young man just now was the most dangerous."
A grave expression appeared on Cang Lao's face for the first time. He did not have much contact with Ling Jian earlier. However, in that instant earlier, he could sense that this young man was extraordinary.
"Is it not that fierce beast that is powerful?"
The surrounding people were all confused. Their cultivation bases weren't as powerful as Cang Lao's, but they could also see Ling Jian's age. If Ling Jian was comparable to the peak of the Heavenly Spirit Path at this age, then it might really be unrealistic.
"Forget it. I hope you won't provoke him in the future. When he returns, you'll have to treat him with special treatment."
Cang Lao spoke in a serious manner, and his tone didn't seem like he was joking at all.
Although these were all his unilateral guesses, cultivators sometimes viewed these kinds of illusory things with more importance. At such a young age, their future achievements naturally wouldn't be too low.
After he finished speaking, Cang Lao didn't continue staying. Of course, with his status, he naturally wouldn't stay here forever.
After a moment, everyone dispersed. Those who should return to their posts also returned to their posts. Everything was normal.
...
Time passed quietly again.
Dan Family.
Dan Family Pill Trading Centre.
The current Dan Family Pill Trading Centre was already in a mess.
If it was during normal days, they would naturally not be so furious. After all, this place was the Dan Family Pill Trading Centre. Ordinary people did not have the qualifications to be angry here.
However, it was different today. Everyone was gathered here because of the Pill Competition. Now, because of a young man breaking his promise, they had waited for so long for nothing. They were like monkeys that had been toyed with.
Once they were angry, they pushed Ling Jian to the top of the storm and became the opposite of everyone.
The alchemist who they had always worshiped, Ling Yun, had come. However, because Ling Jian had not appeared, it was impossible for Ling Yun to refine pills for them. Thus, they had lost the right to watch. Among them... Most of them were probably here for Apothecary Ling Yun to showcase his skills.
In Huntian City, Apothecary Ling Yun's reputation was still very high. Even though some of them were not apothecaries, they still wanted to improve their knowledge and horizons through the process of concocting pills.
"Damn it, this little brat is really detestable."
"Damn it! If I catch him, I'll skin him alive!"
