“Great!”
Yang Chen said loudly, “Brother Python, sooner or later you will feel grateful for your wise choice today. I, Yang Chen, won’t say too much about the clichés. In the future, as long as I have a meal to eat, I will never miss out on your share, Golden Claw Python! Alright, someone is coming, Brother Python, please bear with me and enter the Eight Extremities Flowing River Space for now. ”
“The Mustard Seed Space is quite comfortable, it’s not too bad,” Brother Python grumbled twice but didn’t resist, and swiftly entered the Eight Extremities Flowing River Space.
Immediately after, Yang Chen pushed open the door and saw Jin Cheng approaching.
Seeing Yang Chen come out, Jin Cheng said with a smile like a spring breeze, “Brother Yang Chen, your timing is perfect! I was worried that you were meditating and didn’t know how to call you.”
“What important matter does Jin Cheng have?” Yang Chen asked puzzledly.
Jin Cheng chuckled, “Of course it’s important. You know you’ve done a great service for our City Lord’s Mansion. My father received those treasures and was extremely happy. He’s now asking me to call you over so that he can have a look at you in person.”
Jin Cheng was naturally happy.
What does this mean?
His father wants to see Yang Chen, which means his father approves of Yang
Chen.
He wouldn’t mind if his father approved of others, but if his father approved of his friend, it would show that he has a good eye for talent.
When Yang Chen heard Jin Cheng’s father wanting to see him, he was slightly stunned. “Oh, uncle wants to see me, I’m really flattered. How can Yang Chen refuse?”
“Well then, just follow me quickly. Haha, these two days my father has been wondering which talented person killed Huang Chiyang and dealt with Sun Family of Zan City’s prestige.” Jin Cheng led the way joyfully.
It only took the time for a cup of tea, the two arrived at a magnificent, grand hall.
This great hall was built to be majestic and impressive; however, Yang Chen, who had experienced a lot in his previous life, was not surprised. Now, carrying his hands behind his back, he entered the hall composedly alongside Jin Cheng.
Just as he entered the hall, Yang Chen felt an astonishing Qi coming towards him.
“Origin Martial Realm!” Yang Chen was stunned for a moment and quickly protected himself with his True Qi, repelling the oppressive Qi.
“Hmm?”
The owner of that astonishing Qi seemed surprised. He laughed heartily, “Indeed, heroes come out of the young. Is this the Yang Chen, my friend, that you mentioned, Cheng’er?”
“Yes, it is.” Jin Cheng grinned.
Yang Chen then looked towards the source of the voice and saw a middle-aged man wearing extravagant clothes sitting in the center of the hall. The middle-aged man had some similarities with Jin Cheng in appearance, and with the same imposing aura and smile as Jin Cheng, Yang Chen had no difficulty identifying him. This person must be Jin Cheng’s father, Jin Ying.
When he thought of Jin Ying’s Origin Martial Realm cultivation level, Yang Chen couldn’t help but take a few more glances.
Although there were quite a few Origin Martial Realm masters he had seen in his previous life, at that time, Yang Chen had no martial arts cultivation, so the perspective was quite different from now.
He clasped his hands and said, “Junior Yang Chen greets Elder Jin Ying!”
“Not bad, not bad! ” Jin Ying stroked his chin, beaming at Jin Cheng and Yang Chen, “Actually, you resolved the stubborn problem my son had early on, and I should have thanked you then. But you returned to the Great Wilderness, and I had no opportunity. Later, I heard that He Liancheng’s martial arts cultivation had been improved to Half-step Yuan Martial Realm and it was related to you. Haha, I wanted to meet you even more. Unfortunately, you and my son went to participate in the Secret Realm competition.”
At this point, He Liancheng also said, “City Lord, this Brother Yang Chen is truly a man of great talent, and I, He Liancheng, wholeheartedly admire him.”
By saying this, he was hinting to Jin Ying that such talents should be wooed. If they missed the opportunity, it would be too late to try again later.
Jin Ying waved his hand, “Alright, you’ve said this dozens of times, I’ve already remembered it. How could I not see the talent of Young Friend Yang Chen?” He Liancheng’s face turned red, having nothing to say as the City Lord really had this temperament.
At this time, Jin Ying smiled and said, “Yang Chen, I finally got to see you today. As He Liancheng and Jin Cheng said, you are indeed a rare talent at such a young age. Your Protective True Qi can repel my Qi, and you are calm and composed under my aura. Haha, you do have some extraordinary aspects.”
“However…
At this “however”, the guards and Jin Cheng’s hearts tightened.
Did his father have any dissatisfaction with Yang Chen?
Jin Cheng couldn’t figure it out. There was no reason for it.
Jin Ying, seeing that everyone had misunderstood his intentions, laughed and said, “Where have your thoughts wandered? I said ‘however,’ meaning it seems that the information you provided had some errors. Young Friend Yang Chen’s martial arts cultivation is clearly at the Fourth Level of Spirit Martial Realm, but you said it was at the Third Level of Spirit Martial Realm. If this old man didn’t have sharp eyes, wouldn’t I have been confused like you?”
“What!”
“The Fourth Level of Spirit Martial Realm!”
Jin Cheng and He Liancheng’s eyes were filled with shock.
Could it be that when Yang Chen fought MO Shengyun a few days ago, he hid his martial arts cultivation, and his true strength was not at the Third Level of Spirit Martial Realm, but at the Fourth Level of Spirit Martial Realm?
“This…
Yang Chen laughed, “That’s how it is. A few days ago, after cultivating in the Secret Realm, I had some enlightenment and returned to the city. I decided to close up for a while. Unexpectedly, my luck was so good that I managed to break through to the Fourth Level of Spirit Martial Realm in one go. It’s all just a coincidence, not worth mentioning!”
“If you have reached the Fourth Level of Spirit Martial Realm at such a young age and think it’s not worth mentioning, then where can this elder’s face go?” Jin Cheng said bitterly.
At his current age, what level was he at in the Spirit Martial Realm?
Although he had been framed and his martial arts cultivation hadn’t improved for a long time, he couldn’t even compare to Yang Chen when he was at the same age.
Was this kid really a demon?
The more Jin Ying looked at Yang Chen, the more he liked him. Just based on his Spirit Martial Realm Fourth Level cultivation, he was well worth trusting. Additionally, considering his talent, it would be foolish for Jin Ying not to try and win him over.
“Yang Chen, the main reason I called you here today is to thank you for getting the first place for our City Lord’s Mansion in the Secret Realm competition,” Jin Ying said. “The difference between the first and second place may seem like only an hour’s entrance into the Secret Realm, but everyone knows that the gap between them is huge. Without you, our City Lord’s Mansion wouldn’t have had such a rich harvest.”
Yang Chen said, ‘Elder Jin, you’re too kind. Since Jin Cheng and I are friends, there is no need for thanks.”
“Why not? Haha, young friend Yang Chen, there’s no need to be so polite with your uncle. Alright, bring out the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures I carefully selected.” Jin Ying laughed lightly.
These treasures were indeed carefully selected.
He was determined to win over Yang Chen, so how could he be stingy with Yang Chen’s affairs?
