- Chapter 707: Another Dual-Elemental Female Prodigy (1)
Two years later, after Great Xia’s dynasty prosperity for ten years, an internal strife broke out in Sui Province. Although it was quickly suppressed by the dynasty, this suppression lasted for nearly half a year. It completely let the aristocratic families, the Demon God Sect, and many other forces in the provinces see that the dynasty was strong on the outside but weak on the inside. Therefore, in less than two months, the chaos in the provinces intensified. Some provinces even announced that they had broken away from the dynasty’s nominal control.
Moreover, the clans of the Imperial Family also used the name of purifying the monarchy to join forces with the aristocratic families to control the prefectures under their jurisdiction.
In the Shen residence of the Jizhou City, Ling Yu’er squatted at the side and carefully hid under the table to help Shen Ping revive his blood and dispel his bruises. At the table, the Cheng family and the Wu family’s representatives were discussing some matters with Shen Ping.
He felt the tension of the silent meditation. Shen Ping exerted a little force, and the tension intensified. Until there was no more sound in the hall, Ling Yu’er poked her head out. She could not help but say, “Big Brother Shen, we were almost discovered just now. If the two aristocratic families were to find out about Big Brother Shen’s actions, they would probably send a bunch of girls over to serve you.”
Shen Ping pinched her chin and smiled. “Then, do you like it?”
“I like it.” Ling Yu’er sat on Shen Ping. They exercised for a while, and after it ended, Ling Yu’er continued, “The aristocratic families in the city have been visiting us quite frequently these days.”
Shen Ping said casually, “The Imperial Dynasty has completely lost control of the place, so the various aristocratic families in Jizhou are naturally tempted. As the guardian of the Demon Suppression Division and not a member of the aristocratic families, they will naturally try to rope me in.”
“Then which aristocratic family does Brother Shen favor?” Ling Yu’er immediately said, “It’s the Nangong Family, right? That Nangong Yao is indeed a rare genius. I heard that she’s going to represent Jizhou to participate in the prodigy battle in the Imperial City.”
Shen Ping looked at Ling Yu’er and said, “You’re not bad yourself. If you were willing to spend more effort on cultivation, even if you hadn’t broken through to the Star Rank, you could have reached the late-stage of the fifth rank.” In terms of potential, Ling Yu’er, who was born from the reincarnation of an immortal king, was more talented than Lian Nishang. However, due to the influence of her original family, she was more interested in doing business. After breaking through to Rank 4 and becoming a lieutenant, she did not cultivate too diligently. Even so, with Shen Ping’s help, she was already Rank 5.
“I’ll work hard.”
Ling Yu’er started to practice her silent meditation again.
Shen Ping directly carried her back to the bedroom. In just a few days, he had completely subdue her. If not for the fact that he was afraid that the meat would roll up, this girl would not have been convinced.
Lian Nishang, on the other hand, had been focusing on breaking through to the Star Rank for nearly half a year. She was competing with Nangong Yao in her heart, and it was a good thing for her to catch up with Nangong Yao.
“Greetings, Sect Master!”
In the hall, Chen Bin bowed respectfully. In the past two years, he had followed Shen Ping and his strength had improved a lot. It was even faster than before when he believed in the Lizard Sect. This made him even more loyal to Shen Ping from the bottom of his heart.
“How’s it going?” Shen Ping asked as he drank his tea.
Chen Bin smiled and said, “Sect Master, there’s a lead on what you’ve instructed!”
“Oh? Tell me about it.”
Shen Ping was a little interested. All these years, Chen Bin had mainly been looking for girls with outstanding potential. However, most of them were gathered in the Imperial City. Even if he had pure blood beads, it was not easy to rope them in.
“We found a girl with a dual bloodline talent in Jianzhou. When we found her, her bloodline cultivation base was already at the Star Rank.”
Upon hearing this, Shen Ping’s eyes lit up. A dual-element bloodline at the Star Rank. This was definitely more outstanding than Nangong Yao. If she was a Beast Spirit, she might be at the Venerable Sovereign level or at least an Immortal Venerable.
“What bloodline?”
“Metal and earth.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Shen Ping couldn’t help but smile. “Very good, Chen Bin. You did well.” Now, he had lightning, wood, and water attributes. Nangong Yao’s fire attribute could be obtained in a year, and he only lacked metal, earth and wind attributes. Therefore, he was determined to get this girl.
“Sect Master, this matter is a little troublesome.”
Chen Bin quickly told him the inside story. It turned out that the reason why this girl was not discovered by the dynasty was because she had been hiding herself ever since she was a criminal. It was only recently when the various provinces were in chaos that she appeared and joined the Fire Phoenix Sect of the Demon God Sect, wanting to overthrow the Xia Dynasty to take revenge.
“The Fire Phoenix Sect is much stronger than us. That girl is protected by two late-stage Star Rank cultivators, as well as a Star Palace Venerable.”
Shen Ping immediately stood up. “In that case, I’ll make a trip myself.”
In the past two years, his bloodline cultivation had completely stabilized, and his lightning attribute had also advanced to the sixth level of the Star Palace Realm. He had originally planned to go to the sea area again and break through to the Star Platform Emperor Realm with the lightning, wood, and water attributes.
Two months later, Shen Ping and Chen Bin arrived in a hidden stronghold of the Fire Phoenix in Jianzhou City, Xiyue Mountain. Through his bloodline inspection, he found that there were indeed two Star Realm bloodline practitioners in this stronghold. There was also a fire-attribute Star Palace Realm Demon Venerable under the mountain range.
Boom. Thunderclouds rumbled. In an instant, it enveloped the entire Xinyue Mountain.
“Who dares to trespass here?” A great demon rushed out. Before he could finish speaking, he was blasted into pieces by the lightning.
Chen Bin was terrified. This was a great demon, but it couldn’t even hold on for half a breath.
The Fire Demon Venerable underground opened his eyes and looked at the sky. The next moment, he floated in the air. “Who are you? This is the Fire Phoenix Sect’s place!”
