Chapter 456: 【360】Bestowing the Imperial Sword! (4K Seeking monthly votes, recommendations, and genuine support)_1
Jiang’s Family Back Mountain.
Pei Jinye quietly lay in the bathtub, letting his body soak in the herb-infused hot water, continuously consolidating the Vitality in his body.
It was now half past ten at night.
Everything that had happened during the day had come to an end.
The old master of the Qin family was a wise man.
He who is kind doesn’t engage in commerce; he who is righteous doesn’t hoard wealth.
The man was shrewd but also had courage.
Two million was thrown away without a second thought, without any proof of debt; in other words, even if Pei Jinye took the money and didn’t acknowledge the gratitude owned to the Qin family, they had nowhere to bring their grievances.
Pei Jinye had no need to make enemies everywhere.
Disabling the man in front of that old gentleman had already expressed his attitude, and the last two boxes of money also reflected the old gentleman’s reluctance to make an enemy.
The Qin family was currently at odds with Sky God International.
On the surface, as a large corporation, Sky God International naturally did not fear the local influence of a small place like the Qin family.
But Pei Jinye had already figured out that it was precisely because of Sky God International’s arrogance that it was facing successive losses.
Sky God was in a hurry, which is why they turned to the officials in Da Peng City to exert pressure, seeking to use them as a knife to kill by proxy.
It was precisely because the attitude of the officials in Da Peng City was somewhat ambiguous for the time being that Pei Jinye dared to take the money.
As for the Gene Fluid mentioned by the old master of the Qin family, Pei Jinye was unwilling to wade into those murky waters.
“My god! I ran so hard, my legs are about to break.”
“Isn’t it? I haven’t run like this in years, and I’m almost weary to death.”
The audience gradually arrived at the Martial Arts Arena, some ran all the way to grab the best viewing spots, panting with exhaustion.
“Why hasn’t sister arrived yet?”
Lin Jinlei, seeing the increasing crowd of spectators, was a bit frantic.
“If sister said she would come, she will definitely come. Don’t worry.”
Lin Yixuan had absolute faith in his sister, his obsidian-like eyes shining brightly.
“Maybe Master was held up?”
Shitou’s small eyes shone brightly, hinting, “The County Exam is near, someone is tutoring with the Imperial Sword, even Master may not be able to leave easily.”
“What nonsense are you spouting now!”
Wang Meng glared at him irritably.
“Here she comes!”
Lin Yixuan’s gaze brightened suddenly, looking up at the sky.
“Chirp.”
At the same time, the giant eagle let out a long cry, and dove down from the sky.
“Look, it’s the giant eagle!”
“There is someone on the eagle!”
“Is it a little girl?”
“Isn’t it, isn’t that the Duke of Zhen’s Eldest Miss?”
“My god, she’s flying straight down from the sky, isn’t she going to fall off the eagle’s back?”
“Oh, I can’t stand it, I’m so nervous, my heart is about to give out.”
Hearing the eagle’s cry, the Martial Arts Arena was suddenly boiling with excitement.
The crowd gathered in front of the arena was extremely shocked and then extremely frightened.
All of them, anxiously looking up at the sky, felt their hearts beat violently as the giant eagle approached the ground.
“Another little girl?”
“What the hell are they up to?”
The Spirit Stones shattered into powder and were Devoured under the phantom of the Blood Lotus. Accompanied by the rising steam from the medicinal bath, they continuously flowed into Pei Jinye’s body.
Feeling a sensation of fullness and boiling inside his body, Pei Jinye held his breath, increasingly intensifying his effort.
“Bang!”
The bathtub shook violently.
The wave of heat radiating from Pei Jinye’s body instantly evaporated all the medicinal liquid.
Pei Jinye had not yet come back to his senses.
He was caught in some profound state.
Pei Jinye felt as though he had only paused for a moment, but when he opened his eyes, the time had already advanced to one o’clock in the morning.
A substantial amount of Spiritual Energy accumulated in his body had been consumed, signaling that his second deep cultivation session was about to begin.
After changing into a fresh set of clothes.
Pei Jinye, taking the appearance of Jiang Qingcang, used Flash Escape to appear in the Western Mine.
…
“Family Head.”
Jiang Xinrun stopped practicing and quickly appeared in front of Pei Jinye.
“Has your Sword Intent made a breakthrough?” Pei Jinye raised an eyebrow, immediately perceiving the uncontrollable Sword Intent emanating from Jiang Xinrun.
“I owe it all to the Family Head’s guidance.” Jiang Xinrun couldn’t hide the joy in his heart. He was not a genius when it came to swordsmanship, and after many years of arduous practice, he could never grasp the essence.
However, the Family Head’s guidance had given him a clear breakthrough, like parting the clouds to see the blue sky.
Pei Jinye said no more and looked around the forested mountains, feeling the Spiritual Energy slowly escaping from underground. He frowned slightly.
At this rate, it wouldn’t be long before even the extensive use of talismans to control the atmosphere here would not be able to achieve a complete Seal.
For the Transcendent with perception abilities, this place was like a lighthouse in the dark, hard not to attract the attention of others.
“How much longer will it take for the transport to be completed?”
“At least half a month, and that’s with the brethren of Space Series working day and night.” Just as Jiang Xinrun was speaking, he heard a disturbance in the nearby woods.
“Don’t worry about it, speed up the work. I’ll go have a look,” Pei Jinye left these words behind and took his Avatar with him as he left.
Jiang Xinrun stood in place, watching him go.
He couldn’t help but take an extra glance at the black-robed masked person.
…
…
The uninvited guest was not a human being but a young Greasy Tiger that had just come of age.
Pei Jinye activated his beast taming Ability and took it down directly.
The Greasy Tiger clearly did not expect things to turn out this way; it thought it could make the mountains echo with its roar, but instead, it found itself acknowledging a new master in the blink of an eye.
Perplexed, it lifted its head to look.
A piece of Big Spirit Flesh was thrown its way.
The Greasy Tiger instinctively caught it with a swing of its head, its mind couldn’t form a single thought before it indulged in the delicacy.
After gobbling it down in a few bites.
It lifted its head, sniffing Pei Jinye’s scent from time to time, looking at him with pitiful eyes, appearing somewhat silly and adorable.
Pei Jinye didn’t speak, he simply extended his hand.
The Greasy Tiger, large enough to reach Pei Jinye’s shoulder, hesitated for a moment, not understanding why it felt such a strong sense of closeness so suddenly.
Perhaps for the sake of that piece of Spirit Meat… it hesitated briefly but couldn’t resist approaching and nestled its head against him.
Pei Jinye smoothed its fur.
“I’ll leave this place in your care for now, and I’ll find you some company,” he said.
…
Jiang Xinrun had waited for half an hour, gazing in the direction where Pei Jinye had left.
He had clearly heard that tiger’s roar.
Although he knew of the Family Head’s strength, he couldn’t help but worry.
The forests here were deeper than those in Da Peng City, and he felt relieved that the vein was not located deeper in the mountains; otherwise, who knows what trouble could arise come nightfall.
The ground suddenly began to tremble.
Concern flashed across Jiang Xinrun’s face.
Even the Death Warriors of Jiang Family beside him looked alarmed.
However, just as everyone rushed out ready to defend, they saw the Family Head sitting atop a seven-meter tall mighty elephant, followed by at least forty or more fierce beasts exuding powerful auras.
“Hiss…”
Even Jiang Xinrun couldn’t help but inhale sharply.
Pei Jinye jumped down from the elephant, with the mysterious robed figure following beside him.
