Chapter 117 – Inner Depths Of The Ghostly Mountain Range
“Fatty, I’m giving you ten months to break into the Profound Grandmaster realm. Ten months later, we will meet up at the imperial Heavenly Sword City.”
At the city gates.
Luo Tian said this with a serious look in his eyes.
To a martial cultivator, ten months of time was not very long and wanting to gain a few levels in that time was already quite hard. Feng Lei was only at the Profound Master 2nd rank and was considered 108,000 miles away from the Profound Grandmaster realm.
For some martial cultivators, they may not even break through into the Profound Grandmaster realm their entire lives.
The martial path was not something hard work alone was enough. One needed talent and also fortunate encounters to succeed.
Luo Tian wanted to meet up at the imperial Heavenly Sword City in ten months time because he wanted to rescue An Chunchun’s mother.
This was an S-rank quest so he had to complete it no matter what.
There was 10,000 favorability points involved!
It’s not that he was planning to do whatever he wanted with An Chunchun; Luo Tian was wondering if An Chunchun’s mother would… She was nonetheless a matured woman of the fox demon clan, a woman that could take your life in bed.
The perverted evil fire in Luo Tian unconsciously flared up.
Moreover…
Ignoring the fact it was a quest, this was something Luo Tian had promised An Chunchun to her face so he had to accomplish it no matter the difficulty.
Because those two made a pinky promise!
And what did 10,000 favorability points entitled him to exactly?
Was it as simple as looking favorably towards a person?
Luo Tian felt it cannot be as simple as that. He had a feeling that the system’s reward seem to be hiding some deeper secret, and it might even trigger some special circumstances.
Feng Lei nodded in a serious manner and replied: “Don’t worry boss, I won’t let you down. But where are you going boss? Can’t I follow you there?”
He had protected Luo Tian since he was born and had never left his side in these dozen plus years.
Those two were even closer than biological brothers!
Luo Tian faintly smiled and said: “I need to find ways to break through and so do you.”
Level up!
He urgently wanted to level up! Luo Tian’s desire to become stronger had grown even larger!
Three years later, he had to surpass Murong Wanjian! He wanted Murong Wanjian stomped below his foot! This was his oath!
This was Luo Tian’s plan even though he had no clue how high Murong Wanjian’s cultivation level was.
Feng Lei wanted to argue some more but held himself back. He started grinning foolishly before nodding his head in a serious manner.
He wanted to follow Luo Tian.
But he felt his cultivation wasn’t enough to follow in the footsteps of Luo Tian. He had to desperately catch up and maybe step into the Profound Grandmaster 5th rank in ten months time!
Luo Tian crouched down and pinched An Chunchun’s exquisite cheeks, “Chunchun, you need to obediently wait here for my return. Once I come back, I will bring you to find your mother.”
An Chunchun cutely nodded and said: “Big brother, I will be obedient and await your return.”
Luo Tian smiled before turning towards Song Yannan. He brought out a spatial plaque and said: “Elder brother Song, I will place Chunchun and the Luo family in your care. Inside the spatial plaque are some things for the Luo family, so just do what you deem fit with it.”
Song Yannan took it and became shocked when he glanced inside – they were all xuan stones! “Don’t worry; I will take care of everything here.”
After giving out instructions, Luo Tian swept his eyes past the rest of the Luo family in a determined manner. He then turned around strode away without looking back.
He didn’t dare to look back.
He was afraid he would start crying.
Luo Tian was a rather sentimental person at times.
He had already experienced this type of parting before, and it was something very difficult for him to endure.
Of course…
After parting would mean a reunion later.
———–
Time flowed on.
A month had passed by in a blink of an eye.
At the inner depths of the Ghostly Mountain Range, on top of a tree with dense foliage – a pair of eyes that looked similar to a wild beast was staring at a location without blinking.
Silently waiting.
It was similar to how a cheetah would stare quietly at its prey.
Following the line of sight of those eyes, there were two huge demonic beasts battling each other about fifty meters away.
The scene of their battle was extremely cruel.
Those two demonic beasts fighting looked like two wrestlers having a death match, except the strength of them two were probably over ten thousand times more powerful than a typical wrestler.
“BOOM~!”
