Free Web NovelChapter 2068: Chapter 2068: A Heavy Blow!
The people of Tianhe Guild stayed in Mao Ling City for another two days, as there were some follow-up matters to handle after securing first place.
Two days later, the group rode flying beasts back.
Upon arriving at the Tianhe Guild’s headquarters, Mu Yunbai said solemnly:
"Mr. Su, the great kindness you’ve shown to our Tianhe Guild this time, we will never forget. Whether now or in the future, if there’s anything you need, just speak, and our Tianhe Guild will do everything we can without hesitation."
He did not mention any reward, as compared to Su Chen’s contributions, discussing rewards seemed insignificant.
Furthermore, he hoped to have a close relationship with this young man that transcended mere transactions!
"Speaking of which, I actually have two matters that require your guild’s assistance."
Su Chen pondered for a moment and said.
"Please feel free to tell me."
Upon hearing that Su Chen indeed had needs, Mu Yunbai was not troubled but rather delighted!
"There are two matters in total; one is that I hope you can help me find some soul stones, of course, the higher the level, the better."
Su Chen said.
"No problem, although soul stones are very precious, with the capabilities of our guild, we can certainly find some."
Mu Yunbai wasn’t surprised at Su Chen’s request for soul stones.
Given his profound skills in inscriptions, his spiritual power naturally wouldn’t be low, as strong inscription abilities require a foundation of spiritual power.
And soul stones are invaluable treasures for cultivating spiritual power!
"And the second matter?"
Mu Yunbai asked.
"The second matter is that I hope you can help me find some people."
As Su Chen spoke, he took out several portraits from the Cangyue Ring, all of people from the villa, especially those who hadn’t been found yet.
These portraits were prepared by An Ruyan for him, as she had to arrange for various guilds to search for people, so hired a painter to illustrate many based on photos.
Even Ji Ping, Sun Yang, and Yunlong’s portraits were drawn according to Su Chen’s descriptions.
The reason he hadn’t presented them before was that he couldn’t fully trust the Tianhe Guild, but now the situation was entirely different, and trust was possible.
Upon hearing that Su Chen was looking for people, everyone came over to look, and soon they were exchanging bewildered glances.
Because most of the portraits were of women, and each woman was stunningly beautiful!
"Mr. Su, these people are..."
Guan Shao asked with curiosity.
"Most of them are my women, and some are my friends."
Su Chen did not conceal anything and directly said.
Hearing this, everyone wasn’t too surprised, as in Cangxuan Realm, it is very common for men to have multiple women.
It’s just that Mr. Su has slightly more women, and they are extraordinarily beautiful!
But for a genius like Mr. Su, it seems quite normal.
At this moment, Xi Youyou thought nervously:
"So, he has so many beautiful women!"
"Mr. Su, rest assured, I will ensure all branches of the Tianhe Guild pay close attention."
Mu Yunbai said solemnly.
He could feel that these people were very important to Su Chen.
"I appreciate your effort!"
Su Chen cupped his hands and said:
"If there’s nothing else, I shall take my leave."
Now, with the full support of the Tianhe Guild and the Yuntong Commerce Guild, he was confident that the progress of finding people would accelerate considerably.
"Mr. Su, perhaps I should arrange some people to escort you back?"
Mu Yunbai suggested worriedly.
Primarily, he was concerned that the other two guilds might target Su Chen, given that the Spirit Fire alone was enough to make them envious!
Although he knew Su Chen’s inscription skills were extraordinary, he wasn’t sure about his martial arts capabilities!
Others also looked at Su Chen with concern upon hearing this, worried that something might happen to him!
"President Mu, can you protect me for a while, but can you protect me for a lifetime?"
Su Chen smiled and said.
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunbai was speechless.
Indeed, if the opponent is determined to strike, they’ll eventually find an opportunity.
Furthermore, even if arrangements were made for protection, it might not be effective.
"Alright, President Mu, I appreciate your good intentions, but as for those two guilds, wanting to kill me won’t be so easy."
Su Chen said with a smile.
"Alright then, Mr. Su, please take care. If you need any help, just give the order."
Mu Yunbai said solemnly:
"As for the soul stones, I’ll arrange for them to be delivered to the Lingwu Sect."
Su Chen nodded and then departed...
The distance from here to Lingwu Sect isn’t too far, so when he came, he didn’t ride a flying beast.
...
Perhaps because he had been away for some time, returning to the Lingwu Sect made Su Chen feel very warm, a bit like coming home.
However, on the way back to the Inn Pavilion, he heard quite a few people discussing something, namely the Road of Trials, seemingly saying the sect was selecting talents to participate.
Su Chen wasn’t too concerned and simply returned to his pavilion to continue cultivating.
These days, helping the Tianhe Guild take part in the inscription competition had almost halted everything, and now it’s time to seize the opportunity.
As for the next focus, of course, it’s to continue elevating his realm. The Great Supreme Realm Eighth Turn is still too low.
Fortunately, he still had two or three Spirit Crystals unused, thus breaking through to the Creation Realm shouldn’t be a problem.
Originally, his spiritual power shouldn’t be neglected, but he thought about it, and decided to wait until the Tianhe Guild delivered the soul stones, as it would be more efficient.
Apart from these, there’s also the "Thousand Hand Seal" and "Wind Shadow Step"!
Especially Wind Shadow Step, which must be expedited!
When confronting Wu Che last time, his speed wasn’t advantageous!
Once he clarified his next focus, he took a Spirit Crystal and began cultivating again.
After several days, he finally absorbed the two or three Spirit Crystals, and his realm advanced to the Creation Realm Second Turn as desired!
Though anticipated, it was still very gratifying, equivalent to a typical martial artist’s Creation Realm Eight or Nine Turns!
Moreover, he now mastered the third move "Formless and Invisible" of the Dayan Sword Technique and the secret technique "Prison Heavenly Finger" from the Laws Forbidden Tome.
He was quite satisfied with his current strength, so he asked Zi Mei:
"Is my current strength already quite good?"
Zi Mei replied:
"Barely passable!"
Hearing this, Su Chen felt quite hurt, and he couldn’t help but ask:
"Zi Mei, what was your maximum strength like before?"
"Compared to me back then, your current strength is like comparing your current strength to the Meridian Expansion Realm."
Zi Mei said nonchalantly.
However, this statement was a considerable blow to Su Chen, as the gap between his current strength and the Meridian Expansion Realm was not just thousands of times!
