Chapter 69 Turquoise Family!
Long Chen rushed to the stables to check, and lo and behold, the Black Scaled Dragon Horse was lying on the ground with blood flowing out of his mouth. It looked at Long Chen weakly.
He could tell that it had sustained a severe internal injury and was on the brink of death.
Long Chen’s eyes slowly reddened when he saw his beloved horse suffering in pain. “Huang Xiang ...”
He clenched his fist tight, veins bulging from his arm. The people who had rushed out of the hotel with him shivered in fear when they saw him like this.
When Long Chen saw the Black Scaled Dragon Horse struggling at the end of its life, the memory of Yang Lingqing giving it to him surfaced in his mind.
The girl had risked her life in the Desolate Mountains for a full night just to get him this horse, returning in a disheveled state at sunrise. Long Chen had taken great care of it these few days, afraid it would get hurt, but now ...
An intense killing intent rose within him when he thought of Huang Xiang’s cold smirk. This is the first gift Lingqing has ever given me. Other than the dragon jade Father gave me, this is the most important gift I’ve ever received. But ...
He was filled with guilt when he thought of the silly girl, Lingqing.
Lingqing, I’m sorry I wasn’t able to care for the gift you gave me. But I will take my revenge ... Please visit fr𝐞𝐞w𝒏.𝒸𝑜𝔪 website to read fastest update
He looked up in the direction of Yuanling City, his gaze slowly sharpening into a dagger-like glare. Huang Xiang, I didn’t want to kill you at first, but you were the one looking for death! So don’t you blame me!
Long Chen approached the Black Scaled Dragon Horse. It was in great pain. Long Chen didn’t want it to die, but he gently slammed his palm and ended its life instantly so it wouldn’t suffer anymore.
Looking at the horse he had bonded with over the past few days, he shook his head and sighed. He turned around and grabbed the hotel busboy, instructing sternly, “I will give you three hundred spirit jades. You will take my horse out of the city and bury it well. I will return to Yuanyang City again. If I find that my horse wasn’t buried well, I will come for your head!”
When the busboy saw Long Chen’s fierce glare, his legs shook in fear and he replied hurriedly, “I ... I will definitely give it a good resting place!”
Three hundred spirit jades were enough to bury the Black Scaled Dragon Horse ten times over.
After giving his instructions, Long Chen did not stay in Yuanyang City. He left to chase after Huang Xiang’s entourage, who was coincidentally also heading to Yuanling City!
“Hey, are you planning to kill them on the way there?”
Long Chen sneered. “Don’t worry, I won’t be brash. I won’t attack if I’m not confident I can kill him. I don’t know where the Lingwu family is, so with Huang Xiang here, it’ll save me a lot of time from making mistakes!”
The fact that the Lingwu family could control such a large piece of land so securely meant that they were very powerful! Entering the Lingwu family will be very beneficial to me.
Long Chen familiarized himself with Yuanling City while trailing far behind Huang Xiang.
At this moment, Huang Xiang was sitting in Hotel Hongxing. It was far larger than the hotel in Yuanyang City, but it was only considered a low-tier hotel in Yuanling City.
Huang Xiang was enjoying delicious Yuanling City cuisine when he turned to ask Old Liu, who was standing in a reverent posture, “Old Liu, what do you think the brat will do now?”
The butler immediately replied, “What else can he do? One look and I can tell the brat doesn’t have much money. He'll definitely cry his eyes out for a while after suddenly losing a horse like that. Haha, whose fault is it that he’s so stupid? Our young master was already kind enough to give him two divine jades, but he was stupid and ungrateful. It was appropriate for you to teach him a lesson!”
Huang Xiang was delighted with the answer, nodding away. “You all may return to Huangyun City after I enter the Lingwu family. You have served me well throughout this journey. When you return, Father will reward you all well.”
“Yes, yes!” Old Liu lost his calm when he thought about the reward and said emotionally, “Once you enter the Lingwu family and achieve great results, we all will be able to rest easy. Right, I heard that the eldest young master has already attained a high position in the Lingwu family and his cultivation has progressed very quickly. He’s already reached the mid Human Core Realm, right?”
Huang Xiang nodded. “Elder Brother’s talent is almost equal to mine. Once I reach his age, I will also be able to reach the mid Human Core Realm, or maybe even surpass him and reach the Complete Human Core Realm!”
“We’re all extremely in awe of your talent, young master!”
Long Chen smirked as he watched Huang Xiang basking in his subordinate’s flattery. You can laugh now, but just wait until the Lingwu family’s qualifiers begin. I’ll make you lose terribly!
Huang Xiang then said, “Elder Brother is in the Turquoise family, one of the Lingwu family’s external families. Coincidentally, the Turquoise Sun Hall of the Turquoise family is now recruiting new members, which is why Father sent me here. Since Elder Brother is in the Turquoise Sun Hall, my entry into the Lingwu family is basically guaranteed!”
“There’s usually about fifty people participating in the Turquoise Sun Hall’s qualifying event, with a one in ten chance of entering. It’s going to be a piece of cake for you, Young Master!”
One in ten?
Long Chen’s brows furrowed slightly, but then he quickly relaxed. If Huang Xiang isn’t worried, then I’ve got even less to worry about! But he has an elder brother in the Turquoise Sun Hall who’s at the Incomplete Human Core Realm. If I don’t enter the Human Core Realm myself, I won’t be able to kill Huang Xiang and avenge my Black Scaled Dragon Horse!
A gentleman had to bide his time when taking revenge. Long Chen understood this concept well.
Huang Xiang soon finished his meal and said, “Yuanling City has two large inner cities called Lingwu City and Yuandi City. We’ll head to Lingwu City now. It’s almost time for the qualifying round, so we need to hurry. I don’t want Elder Brother to scold me! I haven’t met him in years, and I hear that his temper has gotten much worse!”
The group quickly left for the legendary Lingwu City.
Long Chen hurriedly followed them. “It doesn’t seem like the qualifying round will take place in Lingwu City. Only when we pass the qualifying round and formally become true Lingwu family members can we enter Lingwu City. What a proud moment that would be! I, Huang Xiang, have finally gotten my chance to shine! Here’s to the Turquoise family!”
The Turquoise family? I heard that the Lingwu family has four inner families and nine outer families. The Turquoise family must be one of the outer families!
