Ye Chen didn't wake up until the evening. His iron-like skin didn't wrinkle after being soaked in the hot water, instead, he looked even more energetic.
After changing into a clean set of clothes, Ye Chen walked out of the room and went downstairs.
"Sir, let me show you to a private room."
There were many waiters in this restaurant. This one wasn't the one Ye Chen had seen before, but he wasn't stupid. He knew that people who could afford expensive rooms would definitely be able to afford a private room. After all, a night in Jin Hua Restaurant cost fifty taels of gold, which was equivalent to five hundred taels of silver.
"Hmm." Ye Chen nodded. He was indeed hungry.
Jin Hua Restaurant had five floors. The fourth and fifth floors were guest rooms, the third and second floors were private rooms, and only the first floor was the main hall, which could accommodate many people.
At the door of the sixth private room on the third floor.
The waiter pushed the door open, bowed and said, "This is the best private room of our restaurant, please come in."
Walking in, Ye Chen took a quick glance at the private room. The environment of the private room was very good, it could even be called luxurious. On the east side of the room, there was a huge window, from which he could see the street outside. However, this wasn't too strange for him. He quickly turned his eyes back and said, "Bring us all the specialties of your restaurant, and three pots of good wine, the stronger the better."
"Alright, please wait a moment."
After the door was closed, Ye Chen sat on a leather chair in front of the table.
After watching the street for a while, Ye Chen felt bored, so he took out a sheathed longsword from his storage ring.
Clang!
He pulled out the sword, and a cold sword light shone. As the sword light faded away, one could see the long and thin lines on the body of the sword, which looked like coiling dragons.
"The Dragon Spring Sword, the best sword produced by the Sky Cloud Martial School. It's indeed one grade higher than the Hidden Cloud Sword."
Holding the sword, Ye Chen slashed at the air.
Puff!
Without using any Zhen Qi, the air was cut open by the sharp edge of the sword. The process was very smooth, without any hindrance.
Putting the sword back into its sheath, Ye Chen thought to himself, 'The Dragon Spring Sword is basically the best weapon an ordinary warrior can make, but I wonder how to make a graded treasure, and how to store those special energies in it, so that it can increase a warrior's attacking power.'
Great weapons were not something that normal martial institutions could make, even rank 7 martial institutions could not do it. Most of the great weapons in the Windy Nation came from the outside world, or were found in some ruins. If one wanted to make one themselves, it would be extremely hard, even harder than reaching the Astral Reaching Realm. At least there was still a way to reach the Astral Reaching Realm, but no one knew how to make great weapons.
The Hidden Cloud Sword had been destroyed, and Ji Hao couldn't find a suitable low-rank sword for the time being. Fortunately, the Dragon Spring Sword was not bad. Except for the fact that it couldn't release sword Qi by itself, it was much harder than the Hidden Cloud Sword. Therefore, Ji Hao should be able to use it for a period of time. Of course, if he had the chance, he would still buy a low-rank sword.
A series of knocks came from the door. Ye Chen put the Dragon Spring Sword back into his storage ring.
Creak!
Four waiters walked in with dishes in their hands. The leading waiter smiled and said, "Dear guest, our Gale City is located in the Great Devil Grassland. There are countless demonic beasts here, and the most special dishes are the demonic beasts' recipes. Please try it, it's definitely fresher and more tender than ordinary meat."
"I've heard about this before, can you introduce some dishes to me?"
"Alright, this dish is called Phoenix Spreading Wings, it's made from the wings of a rank 3 demonic beast, Red Smelting Bird, cooked through eighteen steps. This dish is called Old Tree Blooming, it's made from the gallbladder of a rank 2 demonic beast, Iron Guts Snake … Step by Step, it's made from the meat of a bamboo snake, mountain snow, it's made from a rank 3 demonic beast …"
The waiter seemed to have practiced this before. He listed all the dishes on the table in one breath, without pausing in the middle, and finished everything in one go.
Ye Chen tasted one of the dishes and found that it tasted surprisingly good. What's more, the Yuan Qi contained in the meat hadn't completely dissipated. For ordinary people, it was definitely a great tonic.
"Alright, you can leave now."
Ye Chen poured himself a glass of wine and waved his hand to let them leave.
Perhaps it was a habit, but while eating, Ye Chen subconsciously spread out his soul power, covering the surrounding five hundred meters.
Eh!
Ye Chen furrowed his brows.
In the private room next door.
"Captain, didn't we agree to pay when the person arrives? Why do we still need to monitor him? " There were two people sitting at the table, and the one who spoke was the captain of the guards at the city gate. However, he had changed out of his soldier's armor and put on a warrior's uniform.
The captain, who was also wearing a warrior's uniform, said, "That person's strength is even higher than the lieutenant, we can't provoke him. Forget it, let's continue to monitor him. Anyway, we've endured for so many days, we don't have to worry about one or two days. When the time comes, we'll have one hundred thousand gold and one hundred low-rank spirit stones.
"I'm not afraid of getting tired, I'm afraid that the other party won't pay."
"That shouldn't be possible! I think he has a high status, that gold and spirit stones are nothing to him. "
"I hope so."
The two of them kept their voices low, they thought that they could hide it from the others, but little did they know that all of this had already fallen into Ye Chen's senses.
"It seems that I'm the target? The Multiple Mountain Martial School is too far away from here, so it's not possible. It's probably the Purple Sun Martial School! " Back in the Heavenly Dream Ancient Region, Ouyang Lie and Ouyang Ming were determined to kill them, and Ye Chen believed that the Purple Sun Martial School's leaders were involved.
Ye Chen's expression remained unchanged, he kept eating and drinking, as if nothing had happened.
After dinner, Ye Chen went back to the guest room on the fourth floor to rest.
Late at night.
The silhouette sat on the bed with his legs crossed and slowly let out a breath.
The sixth level of the [Great Mystery Art] had been achieved.
At this moment, the Pure Jun Zhen Qi inside Ye Chen's body had disappeared, and was replaced by the purer and greater Great Mystery Qi.
The Zhen Qi spiral formed by the Great Mystery Zhen Qi was ten percent larger than the Pure Jun Zhen Qi spiral. It had a light blue color, and was extremely pure. It looked like the airflow formed by a light blue crystal. It was lively yet steady, and it was pure yet lethal.
"My cultivation hasn't improved, but my power has improved. I wonder what will the seventh level of the [Great Mystery Art] be like." Ye Chen didn't feel sleepy at all, he walked out of the bed.
"Yes, yes, yes …"
What made him a bit speechless was that moaning sounds came from the room next to his. Even though he had never experienced it before, he knew what the other party was doing.
"Sleep early! I'll leave tomorrow morning. "
With a bitter smile, Ye Chen tried his best to suppress his boiling blood, and went back to bed.
…
"What? He just came yesterday, and he's leaving today?"
In a private room of a restaurant, Zhu Lieyang's eyebrows twitched as he said in a low voice.
The captain lowered his head and said, "Yes, he paid for the room not long ago, and left the Great Jin Hua Restaurant, heading towards the East City Gate."
"Damn you! Can't I kill you again this time?"
Zhu Lieyang felt that he had nowhere to vent his anger, so he pressed his palm on the Purple Vibrating Wood table next to him. Without making any sound, the wooden table was burned into nothingness, not even a speck of dust was left behind. The captain was so scared that he didn't even dare to breathe, fearing that Zhu Lieyang would slap him into ashes.
After a long while, Zhu Lieyang calmed down, took out a small box from his storage ring, stood up and said, "There are ten thousand gold and ten low-rank soul stones in here."
After saying that, he lifted his foot and was about to leave.
The captain froze for a second, then forced a smile and said, "Sir, didn't we agree on one hundred thousand gold and one hundred low-rank soul stones?"
"You still dare to ask for gold and low-rank soul stones? Do you believe that I won't kill you with one slap?"
Zhu Lieyang's cold voice came.
"Don't, don't!" The captain had never been so frustrated before, but in front of Zhu Lieyang, he had to endure it no matter how frustrated he was. He thought to himself, 'It looks like you don't have the confidence to kill that guy. Alright, I hope you get killed by him.
Walking out of the restaurant, Zhu Lieyang rushed towards the east city gate as fast as the wind.
'Ye Chen, I will never let you get away this time. I will follow you for now. When the few leaders of the Hunting Hall arrive, it will be your death day.'
Last time, Zhu Lieyang was severely injured by a demonic beast in the Silent Hills. He had to rest for three months to fully recover, but when he fully recovered, he learned that Ye Chen had severely injured the Multiple Mountain Martial School's Head Elder, who was a peak-level mid Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist, with a single sword attack.
This was definitely a heavy blow to him, because he was only a peak-level early Clasping Yuan Realm martial artist, he was no longer a match for Ye Chen. Otherwise, he would have gone after Ye Chen by himself long ago, instead of sending people to keep an eye on him and wait for the Hunting Hall's leader to arrive.
However, the leader of the Hunting Hall still needed half a day to arrive, so he didn't have much time left.
Walking out of the east city gate, Zhu Lieyang activated his flying art and flew as fast as lightning.
Soon, Zhu Lieyang saw the back of a young man, who was wearing a bamboo hat.
Unhurriedly moving forward, Ye Chen released his soul power to its limit. He could sense everything within a radius of one thousand meters.
'Eh? He's here! '
Without turning his head around, Ye Chen had already pictured the young man's face in his mind with only his soul power. It was a man with a scar on his face. He seemed to have seen this young man before during the inner disciple ranking competition. Back then, this young man was an invited guest, sitting together with other famous martial artists.
Without slowing down, Ye Chen flew towards a less populated area.
'Something's wrong. Does he know that I am following him?' Zhu Lieyang's eyelids twitched. Before, he dared to follow Ye Chen directly because there were a lot of Clasping Yuan Realm martial artists, which made it less noticeable. But now, within a radius of a few miles, there was no one else.
Right at this moment, Ye Chen turned around and looked at him with a faint smile on his face.
'Run!'
Without thinking about anything else, Zhu Lieyang activated his Zhen Qi to its limit, turned around and prepared to run.
"You can't get away!"
Unknowingly, another Ye Chen had appeared behind Zhu Lieyang, blocking his way.
'What's going on?'
Zhu Lieyang turned around and saw that the previous Ye Chen had disappeared along with the wind. It was actually a Zhen Qi silhouette, not the real Ye Chen.
"What do you want?" Zhu Lieyang tried to stay calm.
Stroking his storage ring, Ye Chen said blandly, "If I'm not wrong, your identity as a martial artist is just a disguise. Your real identity is an elder of the Purple Sun Martial School, am I right?"
In rank 7 institutions, martial artists who had reached the Clasping Yuan Realm were qualified to become outer elders. Of course, if one was a disciple before, one could temporarily not become an outer elder. Once one's cultivation reached a certain level, one could directly become an inner elder and hold a part of the power of the school.
"Don't joke around, I'm just a martial artist."
Ye Chen sneered, and the Dragon Spring Sword appeared in his hand.
