Indeed, the geniuses from the four regions—East, West, South, and Center—were too weak.
Having these few was already quite good.
After that, the two headed towards the nearest city.
The two chatted while flying.
"Young Master Ling, did you also receive the inheritance?"
The Void Body Refining Technique is an Emperor Secret Technique.
She thought that one could only obtain this technique through inheritance.
She had also seen some people.
But almost none of them could obtain this technique.
At best, they could improve a level in cultivation or obtain the Emperor Spirit Technique.
Ling Chen shook his head and said, "I just passed a test to obtain this secret technique."
"Then it seems Young Master is quite lucky!"
Jiang Xiaoman smiled slightly.
The inheritance she received was the complete inheritance of the Void Emperor.
Many things she couldn’t use at the moment.
What she could use were the Emperor Spirit Technique and the Void Body Refining Technique.
And between the two, the Void Body Refining Technique was the most precious.
"What is my luck compared to yours?"
Ling Chen smiled and said, "Miss Jiang’s fortune is truly extraordinary!"
Jiang Xiaoman not only improved her cultivation but also obtained the Emperor Secret Technique.
It was even more complete than Ling Wu’s inheritance.
Jiang Xiaoman chuckled but didn’t say much.
She did not explicitly mention her relationship with the Void Emperor.
After all, the inheritance of the Void Emperor would be something even those peak powerhouses outside would envy.
Even the Lord Governor was very envious.
Originally, it was not easy for her to explain.
However, with Ling Wu also having received an inheritance, it made things somewhat easier.
Two hours later, the two of them entered a city.
They found a place, and five people appeared.
Now, both Ling Wu and Jiang Xiaoman were Eleven-Star Sovereigns.
While Ling Chen, Liu Ruyun, and Ouyang Jie were Nine-Star Sovereigns.
Back then, Ling Wu was the weakest in strength.
Jiang Xiaoman was on par with the others.
But now, Jiang Xiaoman and Ling Wu instead became the strongest.
They were both at the pinnacle of the ninth level of the World Realm as Sovereigns!
Even though Ling Chen, Liu Ruyun, and Ouyang Jie had similar cultivation levels,
these two still held Ling Chen in awe.
Because Ling Chen’s strength was far from being so simple on the surface.
The appearance of Ling Chen’s group naturally drew the attention of the Qing City geniuses.
The matter of Qin Jian from the Qin Family, one of the Eight Great Families, had already spread among the Qing City geniuses.
Being robbed of an Emperor Realm treasure was not only a humiliation to the Qin Family but also a disgrace to the Eight Great Families.
Moreover, Li Yunxiao, a genius from the Li Family, one of the Twelve Families, was killed.
This was even more of a slap in the face to Qing City!
Recently, they had been sending people everywhere to inquire about Ling Chen’s whereabouts.
Unfortunately, they had not been able to find Ling Chen.
"Young Master Gongye, Ling Chen has appeared in our city."
At a star-watching tower, a cultivator reported to Gongye Liangcai.
Gongye Liangcai, the top genius of the Gongye Family, one of the Eight Great Families in Qing City.
He was also an Eleven-Star Sovereign.
"It’s really like finding something where it’s been all along, this guy really delivered himself to us!"
Gongye Liangcai opened his eyes, a hint of killing intent flashing in them.
After a while, Gongye Liangcai said coldly, "Quickly inform the other three young masters!"
Besides him, there were precisely three other Sovereigns of the same rank in this city.
They were all descendants of the Eight Great Families.
Not long after, three figures landed on the star-watching tower.
"Ling Chen really showed up?"
Qin Jian said with a face full of surprise.
Having his Emperor Realm treasure robbed by Ling Chen was the greatest humiliation of his life and his blemish.
If he did not wash away this disgrace, it would definitely affect his path of cultivation.
So, he joined hands with the other descendants of the Seven Great Families to seek justice for himself and for Qing City.
Gongye Liangcai said, "Not long ago, they came during the night."
"They came during the night, wasn’t that because they were injured?"
Han Xiu smiled slightly.
The strong night wind would surely injure Ling Chen.
Convenient for them to act.
Han Xiu, too, was a genius from the Han Family, one of the Eight Great Families.
Lu Xuefeng from the Lu Family said, "Mr. Han, taking advantage of others’ weaknesses is not the style of our Eight Great Families! I think we should give them some time to recover before we act."
Qin Jian said, "You all just need to block off Ling Wu. I will handle Ling Chen myself!"
As he spoke, a chilling intent erupted from his eyes.
"Hmm, let’s head over first to encircle Ling Chen and the others. If this kid escapes, who knows when we will find him again!"
Gongye Liangcai said.
Then, the group moved towards where Ling Chen was.
Soon, Qin Jian sensed the familiar aura of Ling Chen.
Qin Jian appeared first.
Dozens of geniuses appeared consecutively, sealing off the surrounding space.
The commotion naturally drew the attention of Ling Chen’s group.
"Ling Chen, long time no see!"
Qin Jian stared at Ling Chen, a cold voice resounding.
"I wondered who it was, turns out it was you!"
Ling Chen smiled slightly.
"Do not be arrogant!"
Qin Jian, full of anger, scolded.
Ling Chen’s indifferent tone only fueled his rage.
This clearly showed contempt for him!
"Kid, daring to rob the treasure of our Qing City genius, you’ve got some nerve!"
Gongye Liangcai said coldly.
Han Xiu and Lu Xuefeng also looked unfriendly.
Ling Chen stared at Gongye Liangcai and said.
He didn’t know this person.
However, sensing the aura around him, he could guess he was also a descendant of the Eight Great Families.
"Qing City, Gongye Liangcai!"
Gongye Liangcai arrogantly said.
Ling Chen shook his head and said, "Liangcai? I think you’re more of a dead wood!"
This guy was being disrespectful, so he naturally had no reason to be polite.
Moreover, with so many of them around, it was obvious they intended to make a move on them.
"Kid, you’re courting death!"
Gongye Liangcai flew into a rage.
Ling Chen actually dared to mock his name; this was simply seeking his own death. Latest content publıshed on novel•fire.net
"Brother Gongye, let’s not waste words with this kid. You all help me block Ling Wu, and I will personally deal with him!"
Qin Jian said coldly.
Our side with four Eleven-Star Sovereigns, dozens of Ten-Star Sovereigns.
Only five people on their side.
Only one Eleven-Star Sovereign.
We’re completely overwhelming them!
There’s no need to waste words.
"Indeed, talking with those about to die is just a waste of time anyway?"
As he spoke, Gongye Liangcai, Lu Xuefeng, and Han Xiu began to approach Ling Wu.
Facing three Eleven-Star Sovereigns, Ling Wu stood no chance of resisting.
"What do you intend to do?"
At this time, Jiang Xiaoman took Liu Ruyun and Ouyang Jie and looked toward the three of them.
Gongye Liangcai only then focused on Jiang Xiaoman.
Gongye Liangcai and the other two’s expressions changed.
Because they discovered that this woman was also an Eleven-Star Sovereign?
Anyone who could advance to an Eleven-Star Sovereign was someone of notable fame.
First, there appeared a Ling Wu, and now suddenly a woman?
Qin Jian also noticed.
He looked incredulous.
This Ling Chen really had a way with women, didn’t he?
Another Eleven-Star Sovereign stood up for him?
