Chapter 64 - Ji Meng Breaks Through (1/2)
At the moment when the four golden characters appeared, Jia Rong felt as if his eyes were pierced by tens of millions of golden needles. At the same time, a force that made his soul tremble rushed directly into his mind and burst into full bloom.
Puke!
He screamed and felt his head crack as he coughed up another mouthful of blood. Then, after hearing a deafening rumble ring out in his mind, he fell to the ground in pain and lost consciousness.
Yunxiao’s eyes returned to normal. He examined Jia Rong, then took out a gold needle and inserted it into Jia Rong’s head.
“AHHH!”
Jia Rong screamed again and suddenly jumped up from the ground.
Yunxiao kicked him and scolded, “You are as weak as a woman, fainting from such a mild pain! How are you going to follow me in the future?”
Jia Rong held his head in his hands with grievance and cried out, “Young Master Yun, I…how miserable my life is! Just now I had a chance to break through to the second tier again, and I was on the verge of success. But…your friend, Lu Yao, she is really my bane!”
“Second tier? Aren’t you already second tier?” Yunxiao snorted.
“Ah?”
Jia Rong froze for a moment, then found that his mind was extremely clear, and there was a freshness flowing in his soul that he had never felt before. He jumped up in an instant and blurted out in horror, “Ah? Ha, ha, haha! Second tier, second tier…This is really the second tier! Haha! I’ve really advanced to the second tier! Oh, heavens, I’m not dreaming, am I? Young Master Yun, please hit me, hit me hard, see if I’m dreaming!”
Bam!
Yunxiao punched Jia Rong in the chest and sent him crashing to the floor. The floor paved with diamond rock instantly cracked with thousands of lines. Meanwhile, Jia Rong’s eyeballs bulged as he opened his mouth and coughed out another mouthful of blood.
He felt a sharp pain as all the bones in his chest were broken. While putting back the bones in pain, he struggled to his feet and said with a sad face, “Young Master Yun, although I asked you to hit me, you didn’t have to be so brutal, did you?” Suddenly, his sad face froze and he said in shock, “Young Master Yun, your…your strength?”
Yunxiao sighed, “It took me so many Thousand Birds pills to break through and become a six-stars warrior. It seems that the pill has no more effect on my body, as it can hardly stimulate my potential further. But fortunately, I have also broken through to the realm of second-tier alchemists.”
Through cultivating the Tyrant Body Tempering Technique, his physical strength was far beyond that of ordinary warriors, so the stimulation of Thousand Birds pills to his flesh and meridians was getting weaker and weaker.
He took out the alchemist’s badge and toyed with it in his hand as he said, “I’m finally worthy of this badge now.”
Jia Rong stood with a blank face for a moment before crying out, “Heavens, this is bullsh*t! Young Master Yun, you weren’t even a warrior when I first met you, were you? And you weren’t even an alchemist, right? You were nothing at that time, but it didn’t take long for you to become a six-stars warrior and second-tier alchemist! I…My heart can’t take this blow!”
Yunxiao said coldly, “Then I’ll help you change to a new heart.”
Jia Rong trembled with fear and jumped to the side. His chest was still feeling a sharp pain, and he was covered in blood, looking extremely sorry.
“Young Master Yun, Young Master Yun, do you hear me? There is something urgent going on in your family. Master Liang asked me to call you out of your seclusion.” Lu Yao’s voice rang out again.
Yunxiao went to the long table and glanced at the few kinds of pills placed on it, then reached out a hand and put them all away. After that, he performed several incantation gestures, and the door of the refining room slowly opened.
At the moment the door was opened, he saw Lu Yao’s slim figure bolt backward and hide in a corner, as if she was worried that the people inside the room would suddenly attack her.
Yunxiao said with a wry smile, “Am I such a crass man? No matter what happens, I won’t attack a beautiful girl.”
Lu Yao blushed and said hastily, “Young Master Yun, something bad happened! Your father is besieged in Kunjin by an army from Baizhan, who have cut off all news. Duke Jingguo is so furious that he is going to lead the army to the rescue, so he told us to call you out of your seclusion and ask you to go back to preside over your family affairs!”
“An army from Baizhan is besieging Kunjin?” Yunxiao’s pupils constricted and his face grew cold. “I’ve only been in seclusion for a dozen days, and these people are turning things upside down. It seems they’re all tired of living. If that is the case, I don’t mind teaching them a lesson.”
He headed for the exit without looking back. Jia Rong followed hurriedly, completely forgetting that he had not changed into a clean suit.
Although Yunxiao said those words in a flat tone, they gave Lu Yao a chill. She shook her head slightly. ‘I’m not qualified to intervene in these matters. I’d better do my duty as a waitress.’ However, in her heart, she wished that nothing would happen to Yunxiao.
She went into the refining room, intending to clean and tidy it. But as soon as she walked in and took a look, she was totally stunned. “Heavens! What happened here!” Everything in the room was in tatters. Not only was the array destroyed, but the walls and floors were all cracked into countless lines, as if they were about to collapse at any time.
This was the best refining room in the association!
“Master Liang! Master Liang!” After she collected her wits, she hurried to Liang Wenyu’s office…
