Ning Fan held the little maid's hand and walked up to the fifth floor step by step. Then, he sat down at the seat next to the window. He did not plan to go to the higher floors. Every floor above the fifth floor had a pressure formation. If one's cultivation base was not strong enough, he would be injured by the pressure.
It was not that Ning Fan's pressure was not strong enough, but Little Stutterer who did not have any cultivation base would not be able to go up.
He was like a sharp sword that pierced through the crowd. Wherever he went, the guests would scatter as if they were trying to avoid an evil star.
Most of these guests were Gold Core Realm cultivators. There were a few Early Nascent Soul Realm cultivators and some of them were Mid Nascent Soul Realm cultivators.
However, none of them dared to reprimand Ning Fan. None of them could maintain their composure under Ning Fan's ferocious aura!
Ning Fan only used his ferocious aura to severely injure Hao Chen who was an Early Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. Perhaps only Spirit Severing Realm demon generals could condense such a ferocious red light.
This man is really powerful!
However, if he is an elite expert among the 700 demon soldiers, how could he be a nobody until now?
"Cough cough … You are Lu Bei?!"
Hao Chen was dressed in red but he coughed out a mouthful of black blood. His eyes flashed with a hint of jealousy.
Apart from jealousy and hatred, there was also disbelief.
He, Hao Chen, was a famous playboy in the Northern Desert City while Lu Bei was the other extreme.
Hao Chen was domineering but he was quite strong. Moreover, his father was the priest in charge of the Awakening Blood Pool in the Northern Desert City.
As for Lu Bei, he only dared to be domineering towards Gold Core Realm juniors. His strength was considered as the weakest among the Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. His family had already declined a long time ago.
In the past, when Lu Bei met Hao Chen in the Northern Desert City, he even had to cup his fists and greet him politely.
Today, why did Lu Bei's temperament change and become so insolent to injure me?!
The most unbelievable thing was that Lu Bei, who was known as the weakest Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, actually had a way to injure me with his ferocious aura!
It was simply absurd but it really happened right in front of me!
He is the biggest trash of the Luo Yun Tribe … Lu Bei?!
Each of the old monsters' expressions changed.
Especially the Nascent Soul Realm old monsters. They finally recalled why they felt that Lu Bei was the one who had lost his reputation before.
One month ago, there was a rumor that Lu Bei had secretly left the Northern Desert, entered the Grassland alone, and killed 71 enemy demons. Initially, no one believed it.
From the looks of it, the rumors were still too weak. This Lu Bei truly had the demonic power of an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. However, his aura was even stronger than that of a peak cultivator!
As expected, rumors could not be trusted!
Lu Bei, who had been ridiculed by the outside world, was actually … a peerless expert!
"Lu Bei?!"
On the seat at the center of the fifth floor, there was a voluptuous woman who was surrounded by many people. She slowly stood up and looked at Ning Fans direction. Her eyes flashed with shame and indignation.
"What's up?"
Ning Fan merely glanced at her indifferently and then shifted his gaze away. He did not have much interest in her.
This woman was dressed in purple. Her breasts were ample, but her waist was slender. Her face was excessively young, but she was playful and adorable. A child's face and large breasts were perfect for her.
However, when she looked at Ning Fan with that adorable face of hers, she was filled with shame and indignation. This shame and indignation seemed to be because Lu Bei had teased and disrespected her many times. As for the details, Ning Fan did not manage to find out much from Lu Bei's fragmented memories.
The only thing he knew was that this woman was Lu Wan 'er, the younger sister of the Northern Desert City Lord, Lu Sheng.
Mid Nascent Soul Realm cultivation base with a bone age of 900 years. This woman's aptitude was not bad. However, Ning Fan did not put her in his eyes.
Even the Early Divine Transformation Realm Demon General Lu Sheng was not a match for him in this Northern Desert City.
"Huh?"
Lu Wan 'er had originally prepared a few' vulgarities' to retort when 'Lu Bei' teased her. However, it turned out that she was rejected by 'Lu Bei' for the first time.
Something's up … This answer was an obvious rejection. This Lu Bei actually did not seem to be interested in me at all …
How is this possible?!
Lu Wan 'er was a little dumbfounded. If she met Lu Bei in the past, he would certainly look at her body with covetous eyes and even tease her …
However, today, Lu Bei was actually not interested in her at all. He did not even show the slightest hint of disrespect.
It was not a disguise!
If he were to disguise himself, there would more or less be some clues. However, Lu Wan 'er, who had seen countless people, realized that the current Lu Bei's bearing was completely different from the past.
"No, it's alright … The Bright Jade Restaurant is my elder brother's restaurant. Previously, it was Young Master Haochen who was rude. However, since Young Master Lu has already taught him a lesson, let's just forget about this matter. Consider it as giving me some face. Alright … As an apology, Wan 'er is willing to invite Young Master Lu over for a drink."
"There's no need for a drink. It's just that I don't want to be disturbed here. I won't pursue this matter further. However, if anyone dares to provoke me again, don't blame me for killing them mercilessly …" Ning Fan just looked at the little stutterer thoughtfully. He did not even turn his head.
Compared to Lu Wan 'er, he was more worried about how he should deal with this little stutterer.
His indifferent words carried a trace of coldness that could not be erased.
Lu Wan 'er could not help but shiver. She gently crossed her arms and felt surprised inwardly.
If it was in the past, she was afraid that this Lu Bei would immediately pester her like a bee that clung to her without paying for its life.
Today, he actually behaved so politely. It's really strange …
"Since Young Master is unwilling, Wan 'er will punish herself by drinking a cup of wine. This matter will end here …"
Lu Wan 'er drank a cup of wine and sat down again. Hao Chen also consumed a pill to slightly suppress his injuries. Then, he returned to his seat. The other guests also returned to their seats.
However, there was no longer a cheerful atmosphere among the demon cultivators. Each of them felt as if they were sitting on pins and needles. As for Hao Chen, he would even cast sidelong glances at Ning Fan from time to time. His eyes were filled with hatred and fear …
Soon, Ning Fan cast Lu Wan 'er and the others to the back of his mind.
He looked at the little stutterer and the little stutterer also looked at him. However, her stomach was growling.
"Are you hungry?" Ning Fan could not help but laugh.
"Mm …" The little stutterer lowered her head. Her face was filled with embarrassment. As a girl, she was so hungry that her stomach was growling …
The waiter of the restaurant ordered the dishes timidly. Not long after, a table full of exquisite delicacies was served.
At first, the little stutterer was still bashful. Later on, she just minded her own business and started eating. She was indeed a heartless little girl. She had some similarities with Mu Weiliang and the female corpse.
Ning Fan remained silent.
Even though he knew that this girl was the female corpse's second soul, he could not bring himself to kill her and seize her soul no matter what.
This girl is obviously a replica of Mu Weiliang … a ten-year-old version …
"Sigh …"
He rubbed the little stutterer's head. Immediately, the little stutterer widened her eyes and raised her head to show her puzzlement.
"Did I do something wrong?"
"No. Just eat …"
Ning Fan smiled bitterly.
I'm thinking whether I should kill you or not … How can I say such words?
Little Stutterer, your name is Xiao Huan. Your surname is Mu. You should be called Mu Xiao Huan. Do you know … Do you know …
Her silly look was comparable to Zhihe's …
The setting sun shone through the window and into the restaurant. The demon lanterns of the Northern Desert City were all lit up.
It has been a long time since I had such a peaceful meal … Ning Fan looked at the little stutterer and a hint of warmth flashed across his heart.
"Master told me to bask in the sun more often. Damn it. I don't even have so little time to bask in the setting sun …"
In this simple warmth, the trace of emotion that Ning Fan's state of mind lacked the most was slowly filled.
His state of mind slowly improved. Eventually, it broke through to the Peak Nascent Soul Realm.
At the moment when his state of mind was about to break through, his eyes flashed but it disappeared in a flash.
That scene did not attract anyone's attention. In other words, there was no one who was foolish enough to provoke Ning Fan after he had revealed his true strength.
Lu Wan 'er was the only one who noticed it.
Her small mouth couldn't help but open in shock and disbelief. She didn't hear a single word of Haochen's flattery and fawning words.
"He actually achieved a breakthrough in his state of mind during a meal!"
Almost immediately, Lu Wan 'er rose to her feet and stared at Ning Fan in disbelief.
This person's state of mind is already at the Peak Nascent Soul Realm. There's no doubt about it!
His demon power is even denser than 1500 units of Peak Nascent Soul Realm. There's no doubt about it either!
However, this person is just at the Early Nascent Soul Realm. There's no doubt about it either!
His magic power is sufficient but his cultivation realm is not sufficient. Naturally, it's because his demon blood has yet to awaken for the second time.
However, with Lu Wan 'er's eyes that had seen countless people, she could only look up to Ning Fan at this moment. How could such an existence fail in the second awakening of his demon blood?!
"It seems like the awakening of the demon blood is controlled by Hao Chen's father. Could it be that this person did something when Lu Bei was awakening his demon blood?!"
That's right. If it wasn't for that, with Ning Fan's monstrous potential, how could he fail to awaken his demon blood if he had the Bloodline Pool?!
As soon as she thought of this possibility, Lu Wan 'er's eyes immediately turned hostile. She looked at Hao Chen and let out a soft snort.
There was actually someone in the Demon City that was ruled by her elder brother who buried a talent like Lu Bei just because of a personal grudge!
When she thought about it again, it seemed to make sense why Lu Bei had such a notorious reputation.
Perhaps it was because Lu Bei failed to awaken his demon blood in the past and he was schemed against by others. He thought that he could not show off his abilities before he improved his strength. That was why he sullied his reputation and acted like a playboy to deceive others. He carried the title of 'the weakest Nascent Soul Realm cultivator' and made everyone look down on him. In fact, he was cultivating diligently in the dark and accumulating his demon power. He was waiting for the day when he had enough strength to awaken his demon blood again and break through to the Peak Nascent Soul Realm!
When she thought of this possibility, Lu Wan 'er suddenly felt that Lu Bei, who had teased her every time they met, did not seem to be so hateful anymore.
He was a man who could endure patiently … Today's eruption was the signal of his rise!
Lu Wan 'er did not know that she was completely wrong. The playboy who had teased her repeatedly was indeed the useless Lu Bei. As for the peerless expert in front of her, he was just a fake Lu Bei who did not have so many twists and turns in his story.
As for Hao Chen, he was trying to please Lu Wan 'er. When he heard her cold snort, he immediately froze.
Hao Chen really did not know which of his words had offended this young lady.
He also did not know that Lu Wan 'er thought that he was an accomplice who caused Lu Bei to fail in his awakening because of various misunderstandings!
"Miss Wan 'er, may I know which of my words have displeased you …?" Hao Chen smiled apologetically. Today, he was really unlucky to have provoked Lu Bei. However, he did not expect that Lu Bei was actually a person who hid his strength well. He could even kill someone with just a hint of malevolence. Although he had provoked Lu Wan 'er, Hao Chen asked himself honestly. His behavior today was especially respectful and cautious. He definitely did not say anything wrong. Why is Lu Wan' er angry?!
There must be a reason!
"I'm sorry. Wan 'er is a little tired. I'll take my leave first. Young Master, please help yourself …"
Lu Wan 'er wiped her lips with a silk handkerchief. Then, she rose to her feet and walked towards Ning Fan with a complicated expression.
"Young Master, are you preparing to awaken your demon veins?!"
"Erm. How did you know …?" Ning Fan was secretly puzzled. Could it be that this lady also knows the Mind Reading Technique? How did she know what I'm planning to do?
No matter how smart Ning Fan is, he certainly would not be able to guess Lu Wan 'er's cliche thoughts.
"Young Master, why haven't you gone yet? Are you afraid that a vile person will harm you?!"
"A vile person?"
Ning Fan's gaze fell upon Hao Chen who was standing opposite him. Coincidentally, his eyes met with Hao Chen's resentful gaze and he could not help but burst into laughter.
This Lu Wan 'er was rather interesting. Hao Chen had treated her to a meal, and she had beaten up Hao Chen. However, in the end, Lu Wan' er had spoken up for her and even called Hao Chen a despicable person.
However, it made sense. From Lu Bei's memories, Ning Fan knew that Haochen's father, Lu Zongyun, was a great demon cultivator. Lu Zongyun's other identity in the Northern Desert City was the Bloodline Pool Priest, responsible for the second awakening of Nascent Soul Realm monsters.
Today, he beat up Haochen, and he didn't know if that Lu Zongyun would take revenge on him.
However, Ning Fan did not put Lu Zongyun in his eyes at all. In the First World, Ning Fan had already killed three hundred demons at Lu Zongyun's level in just one month!
"I'm not afraid of villains. At least, this person isn't worthy of my attention." Ning Fan shook his head.
"Then why hasn't Young Master awakened his bloodline yet …"
"Not enough battle merits!"
Ning Fan smiled faintly as if he was mocking himself, but his smile suddenly turned cold.
In the blink of an eye, a tremendous aura force swept across the entire Ming Yu Tower!
When this aura force arrived, none of the experts of the demon race could sit still anymore. All of them were suppressed to the ground by the aura force.
This aura force is so domineering!
However, when this aura force swept towards Ning Fan and Mu Xiao Huan, it was crushed by Ning Fan with just a flick of his sleeve.
"Lu Bei! You actually remained calm and collected under my aura force! At first, I didn't believe Yao Yuan's words. No wonder he praised you so much. If I didn't see it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe that Lu Bei, who has a bad reputation in my Northern Desert City, is actually an expert who can endure everything! My sister Wan Er's question is also my question. You, Lu Bei, as a member of the demon race, should have the ambition to advance bravely and go against the current. How can you conceal your strength and conceal your identity?! Why didn't you awaken your demon bloodline again?! "
A young man in black armor slowly appeared beside Lu Wan Er.
That domineering aura force was emitted by him!
He was the Demon General of the Northern Desert City, Lu Sheng!
"Battle merits? Alright! I'll give you a chance to obtain battle merits! Today, if you can reach the tenth floor of the Bright Jade Tower and withstand the aura force of a Mid Spirit Severing Realm expert, I'll give you fifty thousand battle merits! After that, I'll give you ten days to kill one person. If you manage to do that, I'll give you another fifty thousand battle merits. A total of one hundred thousand battle merits is enough for you to awaken your demon bloodline once. With your potential, you'll definitely succeed in one try if you don't get tricked by some vile person. However, do you dare to accept this challenge?! "
The young man's eyes lit up. In the Luo Yun Tribe, only a Titled Demon General could make him feel pressured!
However, he actually felt a trace of pressure from Ning Fan's body!
The reason why he gave Ning Fan this challenge was because he didn't want to waste his talent and also to test Ning Fan's true strength.
An ordinary Early Nascent Soul Realm cultivator might not be able to obtain one hundred thousand battle merits even after going through hundreds of battles.
However, the young man had given Ning Fan a great opportunity. He wanted to see if Ning Fan could seize this opportunity!
"Lu Bei, you might be able to reach the tenth floor of the Bright Jade Tower!"
"I can't do it!" Ning Fan said indifferently.
"What?!"
The young man's eyes were filled with disappointment. Could it be that he had overestimated this person?
"If I forcefully reach the tenth floor, this tower will definitely collapse!"
The young man stared at Ning Fan deeply.
This young man's eyesight is indeed extraordinary!
The suppressive force formation of the Bright Jade Tower was extremely unique. The first nine floors were fine, but the tenth floor had a special formation. Only a Titled Demon General could enter. Those below the Mid Spirit Severing Realm would not be able to enter. If someone managed to enter the tower, the formation would be triggered and the tower would collapse!
A Titled Demon General would never allow others to share the same room with him!
Ning Fan was able to see through the ten floors of the tower collapsing formation. Just this eyesight alone showed that this person's Dao of Formation was astonishing!
"What an arrogant young man! This Bright Jade Tower was built using the Moonlight Crystal of the Demon World. Even if it collapses, it can be rebuilt with the moonlight. You don't have to worry! Ever since this tower was built, it has collapsed three times. If you can make it collapse for the fourth time, the fifty thousand battle merits that I promised you will belong to you! "
"If that's the case, I, Lu Bei, accept this challenge … Little girl, don't eat first. Wait until we reach the tenth floor and continue eating!"
Ning Fan held the little stutterer's hand and walked towards the sixth floor.
The black-armored young man's expression changed and reminded him.
"The aura force of this Bright Jade Tower increases according to the number of people. If you bring this mortal girl up the tower, the aura force of the tenth floor will be comparable to a Late Spirit Severing Realm expert. The ninth floor will be comparable to a Mid Spirit Severing Realm expert. You might not even be able to reach the ninth floor … Are you sure you want to bring her up the tower?"
"That's right. I won't feel at ease if I leave the little girl alone!"
Ning Fan took a step forward and stepped on the jade stairs. The moment he took a step forward, the entire Bright Jade Tower trembled violently as if it was trembling in fear!
With the Eastern Ocean Bell on his body, Ning Fan's back at this moment emitted a kind of aura. When his back swayed, almost all the demons at the scene felt like submitting themselves to him!
Under this back view, the black-armored young man's heart trembled as he faced Ning Fan for the first time.
"This young man's back view is a little … a little …"
This back view gave the black-armored young man an extremely familiar feeling.
He gradually recalled that it was during the third awakening of his demon blood. After he kowtowed to the stone statue of the Demon Ancestor, he was bestowed with the 'Ancestral Atavism'. With that power, he completed the third awakening of his bloodline. That was the illusory shadow of the Demon Ancestor that bestowed him the Ancestral Atavism power. Its back view gave off such an oppressive feeling …
"Demon Ancestor!"
The black-armored young man's eyes gradually filled with disbelief. (To be continued.)
