Chapter 15: Chapter 15 He's Still Just a Kid!
Stone Country Imperial City.
Martial Arts Academy.
Boom!
Suddenly, astonishing energy fluctuations erupted from within a courtyard.
When the fluctuations dissipated,
the face of an elder with a hooked nose suddenly revealed a touch of joy.
"So quickly advancing to the Fourth Level of Spirit Transformation Realm, truly an anomaly-level genius!"
In his sight, the one who had just broken through was none other than Su Qingxue!
He had only brought Su Qingxue to the Martial Arts Academy a few days ago.
And yet, Su Qingxue had already made another breakthrough in her cultivation.
Such speed was unrivaled even within this Martial Arts Academy!
On Su Qingxue's figure, he seemed to glimpse a rising new star slowly ascending!
Su Qingxue bowed her hands to Elder Song, "It's all thanks to Elder Song's excellent guidance!"
This Imperial Capital Martial Arts Academy was indeed a Cultivation Sacred Land!
Upon entering the academy, she received abundant cultivation resources that directly enabled her to break through to the Fourth Level of Spirit Transformation Realm!
If she could continue improving at this pace, Su Qingxue believed it wouldn't be long before she far surpassed Lin Yi!
The time of revenge was not far off!
Just then,
a menial worker from the Martial Arts Academy walked in, greeted Su Qingxue with a fist and palm salute, and said, "Miss Su, your letter!"
"It's been sent from Qing City!"
Su Qingxue's eyebrows raised slightly, "It must be from my father."
Taking the letter from the worker's hands, Su Qingxue immediately opened it.
But the next moment,
her face turned utterly gloomy in an instant!
"What's happened?"
Seeing Su Qingxue's expression was amiss, Elder Song immediately asked.
"Lin Yi, he killed my father and wiped out my entire Su Family!"
Su Qingxue gritted her teeth as she spoke.
"What?!"
Elder Song's face underwent a drastic change.
Su Wushi, a practitioner at the Fourth Level of Spirit Transformation Realm, had actually been killed by that youngster Lin Yi?
Could it be that this boy's strength had advanced again?
What a terrifying youngster!
Suppressing the shock in his heart, Elder Song spoke solemnly, "Qingxue, Lin Yi has lost his Dantian; he will never reach the Grandmaster Realm in his lifetime!"
"This boy purposefully choosing this time to kill your father and destroy your Su Family is to enrage you, to take advantage of the time before you have fully grown to eliminate you!"
"A small impatience spoils a great plan; you must not falter at this time."
Su Qingxue nodded.
But her beautiful eyes still flickered with a deep flame of hatred.
"Lin Yi, I, Su Qingxue, hereby make a bitter vow, I will rend you into pieces in the future, or else let divine retribution befall me!"
Seeing Su Qingxue take a venomous oath on the spot,
Elder Song breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Su Qingxue could withstand this momentary rage, with her talent, she would reach the Grandmaster Realm within a year.
Then, wouldn't killing a Spirit Transformation Realm youngster like Lin Yi be a piece of cake?
...
After leaving Qing City,
Lin Yi, along with his sister Lin Ning, rode in a carriage heading straight toward Imperial City.
Only after leaving Qing City did Lin Yi realize just how vast the Eastern Domain was!
To reach Stone Country Imperial City, even if they traveled non-stop, it would likely take a month's time.
However, although Lin Yi desired to arrive at the Imperial City at the earliest, he was not in such a hurry.
During the day, they traveled, and at night, they rested.
On the third day, as evening approached,
Lin Yi, accompanied by Lin Ning, arrived at the Jinzhou Territory.
Just as Lin Yi was driving the carriage, drawing near to a nearby town, suddenly, an agitated voice came from ahead!
"Brat, where do you think you're going?!"
"Dammit, once I catch you, I'm going to skin you alive!"
Lin Yi's gaze followed the voice and saw a chubby boy, around fourteen or fifteen years old, appearing near his carriage.
This mischievous lad was dressed in extravagant clothes and wore a valuable pendant around his neck, clearly born to a remarkable background.
"Hey, stop the carriage!"
"Help young master escape the pursuers, and I'll reward you with one hundred gold coins!"
No sooner had the boy finished speaking than he jumped onto Lin Yi's carriage without waiting for approval.
At this moment, a dozen figures appeared behind the carriage.
These men were obviously after the mischievous boy, each one looking fierce and menacing; one could tell they were not the forgiving type just by looking at them.
Among them, a one-eyed man immediately shouted at Lin Yi, "Boy, who are you?"
"Dare to meddle in the Black Dragon Group's affairs?!"
Before Lin Yi could speak, the mischievous boy had already shouted at Lin Yi, "Big brother! My good big brother, you finally came to rescue me!"
"Leave these pursuers to you!"
With that, the boy tried to squeeze into the carriage.
"Who's your big brother? Scram!"
Unexpectedly, Lin Yi kicked out, sending the mischievous lad flying off the carriage!
With a cry of pain, the boy tumbled over, face down in the dirt.
"Asshole, what are you doing?!"
The boy picked himself up from the ground, staring at Lin Yi, trembling with anger.
"Got a problem? Go find your family, don't go around recognizing random people as big brother!"
Lin Yi cast a cold glance at the mischievous lad, then gave a cupped fist salute to the one-eyed man and the others, "I'm just passing through; your business has nothing to do with me."
Actually, Lin Yi wouldn't have minded helping, but the boy's attitude was problematic, offering a meager reward of one hundred gold coins and acting bossy. In the end, he even tried to use Lin Yi as a human shield?
After this series of mischievous actions, Lin Yi was completely offended.
Seeing that Lin Yi had no intention of getting involved, the one-eyed man and his followers eased up, then turned to the boy with a ferocious look, "Brat, now I want to see who can save you!"
"Tie up this little fatty and bring him back to our stronghold. I'm going to force him to drink a kilo of dung!"
The boy's face turned pale and he retorted coldly, "Who dares to touch me?!"
"I am from the Golden State Zhao Family!"
"You think a small group of bandits can capture me? Don't you want to live?"
The one-eyed man and the others were taken aback when they heard this.
The Zhao family was the most prominent family in Golden State City, which, unlike the chaotic situation in Qing City, dominated Golden State City entirely!
Moreover, being a major city of Shi Country, the weight of the Zhao family, as Golden State City's lead family, naturally couldn't be compared to that of the Lin Family being the top family in Qing City.
At that moment!
A series of hoofbeats suddenly came from the distance.
"Who dares to touch my brother!"
"I'll kill him!"
A dozen fully armed warriors in plate armor were charging over, and at the lead was a spirited woman in combat attire, her expression revealing a touch of ferocity.
"The Zhao Family Witch, Zhao Yu Yan!"
Upon hearing the name Zhao Yu Yan, the one-eyed man's face immediately showed a look of terror, sweat breaking out on his forehead.
Who in the vicinity of Golden State did not know about the Zhao Family Witch Zhao Yu Yan?
They had never dreamed that this mischievous boy would be the brother of this Witch, Zhao Yu Yan!
"Miss Zhao!"
The one-eyed man immediately cowered, "It's not that we intended to provoke the Zhao family, it's truly because this—no, this young master was too naughty, he actually went and urinated in our water bags..."
"So what?"
"He's just a child!"
Zhao Yu Yan's brief remark left the one-eyed man and his followers with no retort.
"Just a child who made a little mistake, and you actually want to put him to death?"
