Chapter 103: Bloodthirsty Camp
Bang!
As air billows caused by this punch rolled, he showed a kind of dominant momentum of sweeping away all the enemies.
Lin Xun squinted his eyes suddenly, however, the old man beside him had reached out his hand and flicked in the air shortly before Lin took action.
The valiant boy was violently thrown far away, like a cannonball being fired, and smashed on the wall of the cabin, which wobbled the entire boat.
Seeing this, even Lin Xun seemed to feel the ache, but to Lin’s surprise, the valiant boy stood up quickly as if nothing had happened to him. Raising his head to glare at the old man, the boy said angrily, “It is inglorious to bully the weak.”
The old man smiled faintly, “Has your father not told you only the weak complain about being inferior in strength.”
Being dumbfounded, the valiant boy bitterly snorted, and chose to ignore the old man. He turned his eyes to Lin Xun, and gritted his teeth, “You little liar! I’ll deal with you after the geezer leaves!”
At the moment, Lin Xun eventually remembered who the young boy was. On the day he stepped into the Donglin Martial Practice Hall for the first time to test his spiritual energy, and when he left, he run into the young boy surrounded by a group of Blood Guards.
The young boy asked Lin Xun about his cultivation at the time, as if he had already gotten to know Lin Xun very well. What impressed Lin Xun in particular was that the boy was only 13 years old, though he appeared to be valiant and mature.
But what made Lin Xun feel confused was why the boy accused him of being a liar and looked so angry the moment the boy met him.
“You just said that it was inglorious to the weak. But don’t you think you have gone overboard to fight against me without any reasons.”
Lin Xun said calmly, “I remember you mentioned that you have reached the Gang Spirit Realm as early as four years ago, but I have only reached the sixth level of Martial Realm, so you are just bulling the weak.”
The old man glanced at Lin Xun with a hint of surprise, and it seemed that he hadn’t thought Lin Xun could know the boy actually.
The face of the valiant boy darkened. Seeming to have recalled something, the boy was furious, “You are a liar! You have actually reached the eighth level of the Martial Realm. At this point, you still dare to deceive me. Do you think I am an idiot?”
Boom!
The young boy jumped up and rushed at Lin Xun, with his figure moving like a reckless dragon.
But the old man waved his hand, and the boy was violently knocked into the air again and fell hard on the ground. Seeming to see stars dancing before his eyes, the boy got even more furious. He picked himself up and shouted, “Geezer! Why do you shield such a hateful liar?”
The old man sighed, “Are you sure he has reached the eighth level in the Martial Realm?”
The valiant boy said in a rage, “When the liar tested his spiritual energy in the Donglin Martial Practice Hall a few days ago, I saw with my own eyes the number on the Spirit Testing Stone was 4,900 Jun. Could it be false?”
The old man was in a trance, and with his eyes looking a little bit strange, he looked at Lin Xun. “Is it true?” he asked.
Now Lin Xun understood why the valiant boy called him a liar. He nodded, “Yes, it’s true.”
The valiant boy became complacent immediately, “What? Do you feel too guilty and have to admit it?”
Thinking for a moment, the old man sighed slightly, “He didn’t lie to you.”
The old man suddenly realized that he had just noticed Lin Xun’s aptitude was not remarkable, and his cultivation was just OK among his peers, but he hadn’t imagined that this average boy on the sixth level of Martial Realm could own the formidable spiritual energy which could match that of an overmatch on the eighth level in Martial Realm.”
Just for this point, the ordinary people couldn’t make it.
“If my Lady know this, will she change her mind?” the old man thought for a moment, and then negated it, since he was quite sure that no matter how excellent Lin Xun was, nothing could change the Lady’s decision of taking Shia Zhi away.
“You didn’t lie to me?”
With his eyes wide open, realizing something suddenly, the valiant boy shouted, “So you mean that with the cultivation of the sixth level in the Martial Realm, he actually has the mighty spiritual energy of the eighth level?”
Lin Xun thought in his heart that this boy was not that stupid.
“Sorry, I have misunderstood you before. But no discord, no concord! I will buy you a drink, so I hope you don’t mind.” The valiant boy marched over to Lin Xun and said in a low voice.
Even though the boy was apologizing, he still gave you a feeling of being reasonable and self-confident.
It didn’t matter, but what made Lin Xun feel surprised was that the valiant boy was adaptable to circumstances and apologized directly the moment he knew he was wrong. Righteous and straightforward, the boy was much better than those who had been pestering Lin endlessly.
Moreover, Lin Xun had guessed faintly that with a group of Blood Guards surrounding him, the boy was definitely not ordinary. With a special identity, the boy was still willing to apologize to Lin frankly, which showed he was really different from other aristocratic boys.
“It is meaningless for me to haggle over it anymore, so it is not bad to let you owe me a drink.” Lin Xun shrugged his shoulders.
“Hha, you are interesting,” the valiant boy laughed loudly, “I’m Ning Meng. Those familiar guys call me Meng, and you can also call me that.”
Lin Xun spoke without thinking, “I’m Lin Xun.”
Ning Meng replied enthusiastically, “Lin Xun, after arriving at the Bloodthirsty Camp, we’ll be the trainees of the same session, and we’ll spend the whole year together. You are nice, and I like you. You’re capable, even though weaker than me. However, you must have something special to be able to take part in the training of the Bloodthirsty Camp. Turn to me if you get into any trouble…”
Lin Xun couldn’t find a chance to cut in. Talking on and on, Ning Meng was such a chatterbox.
But Lin Xun didn’t mind Ning’s verbose talking. From Ning’s words, he finally knew that the destination of this trip was a place called the Bloodthirsty Camp and they came there for some kind of cruel training.
So was it what the old man called “a chance”?
Lin Xun thought silently.
The treasure boat was an old one clearly. With its flying speed not quick, the boat bumped all the way, just like an oxcart dashing around madly on a muddy road, which was quite uncomfortable to sit in.
The man sailing the treasure boat was a middle-aged man with whiskers. Drinking alcohol all the way, the man was drunk, which made Lin Xun worry about what if an accident happened. At such a great height, let alone practitioners of the Martial Realm, even those of the Gang Spirit Realm couldn’t survive if there was something wrong with the boat.
In fact, a treasure boat was a valuable spiritual tool, with its entire body carved with a spiritual tattoo formation, and the source of its spiritual energy was a spiritual furnace.
The spiritual furnace was the core part of a treasure boat, with a pure spiritual crystal burning in it to provide spiritual energy constantly for the spiritual tattoo formation carved on the boat to enable it to fly.
Of course, once the spiritual crystal burned out, it must be replaced with a new one.
The so-called spiritual crystal was a kind of crystal which contained amazing spiritual Qi. In general, the spiritual crystal would be cut into the size of the same standard. It was not rare, but valuable, and a palm-sized one was worth 10 imperial silver coins.
A treasure boat like this had to store at least a hundred spiritual crystals to ensure it could fly for a long distance.
It was worth mentioning that spiritual crystal had wide functions, which could not only provide spiritual Qi for the spiritual tattoo formation, but satisfy the need of a practitioner for cultivation. Besides, spiritual crystal had immeasurable functions in the aspects of spiritual land, puppet, spiritual medicine refining, and transportation, so it was regarded as a kind of very important resource.
After a whole stick of incense burned out, the chatty Ning Meng was interrupted by the old man, which finally enabled Lin Xun to enjoy some quiet time.
Ning Meng seemed to know the old man wanted to say something to Lin Xun, so he got up, smoothed the back of his robe, and walked into the operating room of the treasure boat to have a drink and chat with the middle-aged man with whiskers.
The boy was clearly good at dealing with people, being bold and neglecting trivial matters, so it was easy for him to make friends with others.
“I’ll leave after two hours, so if you have any questions, you can ask me, and I’ll answer as long as I can.” The old man sat there, looking amiable and gentle.
Lin Xun said bitterly, “You won’t say anything about Shia Zhi, right?”
The old man nodded, “Sorry, I can do nothing for you about it.”
Lin Xun took a deep breath, and said seriously, “I just want to know how could you find Shia Zhi. With your identities, you shouldn’t have appeared in the Donglin Town.”
The old man smiled meaningfully, “You doubt someone betrayed you.”
Lin Xun responded frankly, “Yes.”
The old man thought for a moment, and said seriously, “You are wrong. Nobody informed against you. The Lady could find the little girl just because of an invisible sense.”
Lin Xun frowned and listened with patience.
“It is not something taboo or secret, so it’s OK to tell you something related. About a month ago, our Lady got the news that the place where her old friend lived suffered something unexpected, so we set off immediately to head for the depth of Three Thousand Mountains. However, we got there, only finding that the place had been destroyed and was in ruins, with no clues left.
With the expression of recalling on his gentle face, the old man said in a low voice, “We searched in the Three Thousand Mountains for a long time but found nothing. According to the Lady’s deduction, it had been too late when we arrived…”
With a big shock in the heart, Lin Xun thought of the mine prison which had been destroyed, as well as Master Lu who had brought him up.
Could it be said that the place Liulan Ji’nian and the old man had been looking for was…
“You seem to be emotional.”
With the voice of the old man ringing in his ears suddenly, Lin Xun got stiff all over.
With a hint of bitterness on his face, Lin Xun said, “To tell you the truth, my hometown, the Feiyun Village, is located in the Three Thousand Mountains, so I feel sad and nostalgic for the moment.
“Ah,” the old man asked no more.
Lin Xun felt relieved in the heart. Before he became strong enough, he would never tell anything about the mine prison to anybody, whether the other side held good intentions or not!
Because too many things were involved, not only Master Lu, but also Lin Xun’s own antecedents and enemies!
The old man continued, “Of course, what I have said has nothing to do with you. Only when the Lady and I were on the way back, she suddenly felt something, and told us there was a lucky chance which she had been looking for a long time in Donglin Town. You have known the following things. The little girl beside you is just the lucky chance that our Lady has been looking for.”
It sounded mysterious, but Lin Xun knew when a practitioner reached a certain terrifying level, he could sense many fantastic and unpredictable things someway.
However, the behavior of taking Shia Zhi away still made Lin Xun feel unpleasant. Although he could understand, it was hard for him to let it go emotionally.
But the old man’s words, by chance, enabled Lin Xun to find a hope which he had been struggling to seek, but failed to get for a long time.
