Chapter 555: Chapter 546 Zi Xiao Entering Saint

Outside the Tianlan Imperial City, the void still carried the booming noises caused by the two fierce individuals.

Inside a grand building in Tianlan Imperial City resounded a young man’s sigh, "Ah! Brother Shi, how have you gotten yourself involved with these two fierce men!"

The voice belonged to Shi Jinsuai, the same youth from the Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Building that Shi Feng had met at sea.

Those two fierce men had been chasing him, and amidst unexpected changes, they had started fighting among themselves. At that moment, Shi Feng spotted a building below in the Tianlan Imperial City. The building’s golden plaque bore the words "Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Building" in splendid characters.

That building was precisely the Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Building where Shi Jinsuai was located. As soon as Shi Feng had seen those words, he had fled into the building, and coincidentally, Shi Jinsuai was also inside.

In an elegant chamber, Shi Feng sat at a table leisurely sipping fragrant tea. His appearance bore no trace of the dishevelment from his recent flight. Upon hearing Shi Jinsuai’s question, Shi Feng replied, "They are two mutants! My relationship with them is somewhat complex, not easily explained in a few words."

After finishing his tea, Shi Feng looked at Shi Jinsuai and said, "This tea is quite good; brew another cup for me."

Hearing this, Shi Jinsuai, who stood by a mahogany window looking at the sky, turned his head and looked at Shi Feng’s relaxed demeanor, his head shaking in a wry smile. Just moments ago, he had seen him fleeing for his life in the sky, yet now he was leisurely sipping tea here.

Shortly after, Shi Jinsuai called softly to someone outside the chamber, "Someone, bring another cup of fine Moon Spring Tea for Young Master Feng!"

"Yes!" A gentle female voice responded from outside.

"Have those two mutants left?" Sensing that their auras had gone far north and were now undetectable, Shi Feng asked Shi Jinsuai.

Turning his head back and glancing once more outside the mahogany window, Shi Jinsuai replied, "That woman was stabbed by that man and then they began to flee. He chased and she ran, they fought and escaped, and now they have left."

Shi Feng had not expected those two mutants to suddenly become so powerful! Such "demons"! Those Ancient Mutant Species, in the times of yore, were beings of the God Realm.

With the Demon Finger and Demon Eye within him, though these two mutants had departed for now, they would inevitably find him again.

Strength, oh strength! His current self was still too weak!

Unconsciously, Shi Feng shook his head again, silently sighing.

Soon, the door of the chamber opened and a fragrance wafted in. A fairly beautiful maid entered carrying a cup of tea, placed it on the table before Shi Feng, bowed slightly to him, and gracefully withdrew to the door which then closed slowly behind her.

With a "whoosh," Shi Jinsuai opened his golden paper fan and, shaking it, walked towards Shi Feng and sat opposite him. Smiling, he said, "Brother Shi, you’ve come to Tianlan Imperial City this time to catch a glimpse of Princess Linglong’s beauty, haven’t you?"

"I am here to participate in the martial arts competition to seek her hand in marriage!" Shi Feng replied.

"Oh?" Upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, Shi Jinsuai’s smile deepened. "So Brother Shi is aiming to win the beautiful bride! Haha!"

Shi Feng then changed the subject, saying with a smile, "However, young brother, you might be disappointed. Winning Princess Linglong and becoming the son-in-law of Tianlan Emperor Lann Yuan and the Prince Consort of the Tianlan Empire is not going to be an easy task."

"Regardless! I must participate in this martial arts competition and I must win this contest, no matter who the opponent is!" Shi Feng declared with determination and seriousness.

Shi Feng had not forgotten his promise to Jin Mo.

Watching Shi Feng’s resolute, serious expression and his unusually determined eyes, for a moment, Shi Jinsuai felt a bit dazed as if the youth could indeed achieve what he had said.

Regaining his composure, Shi Jinsuai shook his head and smiled gently at Shi Feng again, "Apart from that, I have news. For Princess Linglong, Marquis Zi Xiao has been in closed-door training tackling life-and-death challenges until yesterday. He has emerged and entered the One-star Martial Saint Realm! If you want to win this competition, he will be your primary competitor!

That is a supreme Martial Saint!"

"He has advanced!" Hearing Shi Jinsuai’s news, Shi Feng’s brow furrowed. He hadn’t expected that as he had grown stronger, so had his enemies.

Then, with a suddenly cold tone, Shi Feng said to Shi Jinsuai, "No matter what realm he has advanced to, this person, on the martial arts platform, I must slay him!"

Seeing this abrupt change in Shi Feng and hearing his chilling words, Shi Jinsuai felt a premonition, his brow wrinkling slightly as he asked, "Have you already made an enemy of this person?"

Shi Feng nodded slightly at Shi Jinsuai’s question and said, "Indeed, we are enemies!"

Looking at Shi Jinsuai, Shi Feng spoke again, "The martial arts competition is in five days, I shall go into closed-door cultivation here in that time."

Upon hearing Shi Feng’s words, Shi Jinsuai readily agreed, "Between you and me, naturally, there’s no problem." Shi Jinsuai remembered that if it weren’t for Shi Feng, he would have died aboard the Ghost Ship in the East Sea.

Then, Shi Jinsuai added, "Back then on the Ghost Ship, Brother Shi saved my life. During this time, any Cultivation Primordial Stones you need, I can provide!"

"I don’t need the Primordial Stones for now," Shi Feng replied after hearing Shi Jinsuai’s offer, shaking his head slightly. He still had three billion Primordial Stones, which were more than enough.

After pausing for a moment, Shi Feng then said, "I still have over three billion Primordial Stones. See if there are any High Order Pills or Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures here that can enhance cultivation level, Soul Power, or strengthen the physical body. I need those too."

Soul Power, Shi Jinsuai had long known that Shi Feng cultivated it since their encounter on the Ghost Ship. Now with Shi Feng also requesting items to strengthen his physical body, could it be that this man, cultivating the soul, physical body, and Martial Arts together?

In the Tianheng Continent, cultivating all three to Great Success was achieved only by one person before, the strongest under this sky over a decade ago—the Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor, Netherworld!

He too cultivated all three. Isn’t he afraid of biting off more than he can chew?

"I should have some of these items in stock in my Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Building! I’ll have someone compile a list to check," said Shi Jinsuai.
