Chapter 398: Ying Jia, Winner? [1]

Translator: AstralGhost Editor: Kurisu

This was an independent space, located in the depths of the city’s main government, not known to outsiders.

According to legends, the Lin Clan old ancestor had contributed heavily and attained great merits, and a powerful expert at the Transcendent realm had personally acted, using the supreme materials the Lin Clan provided to create a secret realm!

The secret realm was not large, only around 20 li wide. Within the secret realm, a peach tree about a dozen meters tall stood. The strange thing about this peach tree was that there wasn’t even a single piece of leaf on the tree. There were only a rare few fist-sized peaches on them. If one looked properly, it was possible to see numerous different faces flash across it, chilling one’s bones!

Hua Yun looked at the people beside him for a moment and suddenly gasped aloud.

“That’s the Tu Clan’s grand elder!”

“That’s the Tong Family’s young master!”

Every face that appeared would cause Hua Yun to shout with surprise. The city was not very large, but it was not small, either. Any family or clan that had some position were remembered by everyone.

This was especially the so for the clans stronger than their own—if they couldn’t remember the faces of the more important people, it would be disastrous if they offended a powerful figure accidentally!

But it was precisely because of this that Hua Yun felt even more shocked. The powerful experts, and important members of powers that his own clan needed to be wary of or that they usually could only look up to, were obviously in a bad state right now.

Hua Yun looked at the prison-like cell that he was in and mumbled to himself, “What kind of place is this?”

“Ge-ji!”

A sound rang out as the main door opened and a cleanly shaved man walked over.

Hua Yun sat where he was and did not lie down and pretend that he was still unconscious. Without a special technique to mask his vitals, it was impossible to hide from a cultivator.

“Yi? Someone’s actually awake so quickly? How weird!”

A few people following behind the man looked over and when they saw that Hua Yun was awake, their interest was aroused.

One had to know that Yua Yun was not the only person here. There were even three Golden Core experts. Everyone was still under the effects of the Dazing Powder, but the first one to recover from it was actually Hua Yun.

“Lord City Leader!” Hua Yun exclaimed with surprise. No matter what, he hadn’t expected that the person who walked in would be the City Leader.

At this moment, many thoughts flooded into Hua Yun’s head. He finally understood why the killer was never found for the clan extermination incidences in the city!

“So this was how it is…”

Hua Yun laughed bitterly to himself. This was the meaning of a robber acting like a cop. As a city leader, how could he catch himself?

“Hur hur, you’re pretty smart.”

Lin Qingyun smiled lightly. Not a single trace of aura could be found on his body, and he seemed just like a regular person.

“Let me see what’s so special about you.”

“She!”

Lin Qingyun walked forward and beckoned for someone to open the metallic door. Then with a casual grab, Hua Yun was pulled helplessly towards Lin Qingyun.

“AH!”

A strange light flashed in Lin Qingyun’s eyes, and the area 10 meters around him turned into a separate space. Hua Yun’s face twisted with pain and he screamed in an extremely wretched manner!

“Hm? Interesting, haha! The heavens are on my side, it’s actually the Green Wood Treasure Body!”

Lin Qingyun’s face brightened with joy and a strange smile appeared on his face as he looked at Hua Yun. The way he looked at Hua Yun was not like how one looked like a living person. Rather, it was like he was looking at a rare treasure pill!

Hua Yun sat on the ground, gasping heavily for air.

“Leave him alive, and use the best resources to nurture him. Let him break through to the Golden Dan stage as soon as possible!” Lin Qingyun instructed an old man behind him.

You Ye paused for a moment and asked, “Patriach, wouldn’t this be too much of a waste of resources?”

“Haha, you’re wrong! This person is the biggest piece of resource! As long as he breaks through to the Golden Dan realm and we refine him into fertilizer for the divine tree, it’ll definitely produce a heavenly fruit! At that time, I might even be able to reach the half step Yuanying stage in one move!”

“This old servant understands.”

You Ye nodded his head. The reason he asked was because the amount of resources required to raise a weakling who wasn’t even at the Foundation Establishment realm all the way to the Golden Dan stage in a short time was simply too enormous. Even for the City Lord Manor, it was not a small expenditure.

But since the City Lord had already decided, You Ye could only follow as he was commanded. This was also one of the reasons why You Ye was so trusted by Lin Qingyun.

“Hm? What kind of place is this? Who dares to imprison this young master here!”

A youngster woke up groggily and shook his head. As soon as he awoke, he started to curse freely.

Ying Jia gnashed his teeth and shouted, “Yi? Uncle, I’m Ying Jia! Hurry up and let me out! Damned crooks, how dare you kidnap me!”

“Hur hur, dear nephew, it’s obvious that you’re not the winner this time. I’m the winner!” [1]

Lin Qingyun looked over and suddenly burst out in laughter.

This name was pretty good, but it’s a pity that the person the name was given to was the complete opposite of a winner. Although the Ying Family’s power was not to be underestimated and could be ranked among the top 5 in the city, the position of such a useless young master was not very high. There were many people in the Ying Family who could not bear his existence!

Lin Qingyun was also prepared to move against the Ying Family sooner or later. He wanted to create some chaos first, which was why he sent a Golden Dan expert to capture Ying Jia.

An old man beside him had also awoken. He looked at Ying Jia with disdain and scolded, “Idiot, you still can’t see it? This Lord City Leader before us is the real mastermind behind the scene!”

“Impudent! What status do you have and what status does this one have?! Do you believe that this young noble will bring some people over and exterminate your clan?!”

Ying Jia still seemed to be unclear about his current situation, and was still behaving in an arrogant manner.

A girl dressed in light green robes walked in and said, “Father, the fruit is almost ripe.”

“Xian Xian, what’s going on? Quickly tell Uncle to let me out!” Ying Jia said hurriedly. No matter how dumb he was, he could also sense that something was wrong at this point.

“Do you love me? Would you like to be with me forever, never parting?”

Lin Xian smiled innocently, and her tone was charming, like a young girl confessing her love to her childhood boyfriend.

“I want to! Of course I’m willing!”

Ying Jia’s fat faced was wreathed in smiles and he nodded his head enthusiastically, resembling a hen pecking at corn on the ground.

“Hur hur, father, can you leave him to me?”

Lin Xian smiled cutely and looked at Lin Qingyun.

“Of course.”

Lin Qingyun smiled. He’d guessed what his daughter wanted to do.

“Big Brother, let’s go.”

Lin Xian walked over and tugged at Ying Jia’s hand innocently. Her voice was light like a fairy, and very soothing to the ear.

Just the term “big brother” was enough to make the pig-faced Ying Jia drool with excitement.

Lin Qingyun was not the least bit worried as he watched the two leave. Ying Jia’s strength had been sealed long ago, and no matter what, his daughter was still a Foundation Establishment primary stage expert. Even if Ying Jia’s cultivation had not been sealed, it was impossible for him to be a match for Lin Xian with his weak cultivation.

Yng Jia was a well-known silkpants. His cultivation was only at the sixth level of Qi refining. But if it came to playing with women, even Lin Qingyun, this Golden Dan expert, would have to bow his head in submission.

“Xian Xian, where are you taking me?”

Ying Jia had asked this many times along the way, but Lin Xian always dodged the question. Soon, Ying Jia reached the center of the secret realm. A tall tree about a dozen meters high with a trunk thick enough for five to six people to wrap their arms around appeared before them.

Ying Jia walked a few rounds around the tree and muttered to himself, “What tree is this? How come it’s so ugly?” Ying Jia stopped and asked, “Xian Xian, did you bring me here to see this tree?”

“Hehe, this tree is a divine tree. If it used humans as fertilizer, it can create spirit fruits that can greatly increase a person’s cultivation! Big Brother, since you like me so much and want to be with me, why don’t you turn into a spirit fruit and let me eat you?”

Lin Xian’s voice sounded out beside Ying Jia’s ears, like a woman whispering to her lover.
