Chapter 246: Chapter 246: Arriving at Jiuzhou Chapter 246: Chapter 246: Arriving at Jiuzhou In the Seventh Layer of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, Feng Wuchen was immersing himself in comprehending the Soul Extinction Sword Technique.

Ling Xiaoxiao was cultivating by his side; neither one was disturbing the other.

Feng Wuchen had just broken through to the Tianyuan Realm and wanted to enhance his combat abilities. The only way to improve in the short term was to grasp the essence of the Soul Extinction Sword Technique.

The distance to breaking through to the Second Layer of the Tianyuan Realm was still very far for Feng Wuchen; it was simply impossible in the short term.

While comprehending, Feng Wuchen was also waiting for Ling Xiaoxiao to break through the Tianyuan Realm. Once she did, they would immediately rush to the Jiuzhou Burial Spirit Valley.

The greatest threat to Feng Wuchen now was Murong Tian, whose strength was terrifying. Facing Murong Tian, Feng Wuchen had little confidence.

The Soul Extinction Sword Technique was Feng Wuchen’s strongest card at the moment. The deeper his comprehension, the more powerful the technique he could deploy, and he intended to reserve it for facing Murong Tian.

…

In the Xiao family of Jiuzhou.

Xiao Qingshan had returned to the Xiao family; he had already reported the events to the Family Head Xiao Tianchen. Feng Wuchen’s arrogance had infuriated them.

“Refuse a pardon? Humph! Does this brat really think he’s so capable? He doesn’t even take our Xiao family seriously!” an elder said darkly and angrily.

“Ungrateful! Without the support of the Xiao family, I’d like to see how they’ll die!” another elder raged.

Glancing at Xiao Tianchen’s expression at the main seat, Xiao Qingshan added fuel to the fire: “Father, you don’t know how arrogant Feng Wuchen is. He even said you’re not worthy to be his grandfather, cursed you to die sooner, and claimed our Xiao family has no right to meddle in their affairs.”

Xiao Tianchen’s face darkened as he demanded angrily, “Did he really say that?”

“Are there any falsehoods? That brat, relying on his little capabilities, simply doesn’t consider our Xiao family a matter at all,” Xiao Qingshan said through clenched teeth, “Father, in my opinion, we might as well eliminate that boy so he won’t be able to take revenge on our Xiao family!”

“Impermissible!” the chief elder immediately objected.

“Humph! What a fine son Qingqing has raised!” Xiao Tianchen said furiously, with an extremely ugly look on his old face.

“Really throwing away the face given! If it weren’t for the fact that Feng Wuchen is an Artifact Refiner and an Alchemist, we wouldn’t even bother with him!” a top-ranking officer remarked disdainfully.

“Qingqing said she would come back for father’s grand birthday celebration, but she would be returning as a member of the Feng family!” Xiao Qingshan added.

“Family Head, do not be angry. Actually, to speak the truth, you indeed don’t deserve to be Feng Wuchen’s grandfather. You have never gone to see him in eighteen years. You don’t even know what he looks like. It is no wonder that Feng Wuchen would repudiate you like that. I’ve long advised you, Family Head, but you just wouldn’t listen,” the chief elder spoke slowly.

Xiao Tianchen snorted angrily, “The fault is not with me. It is Qingqing who brought this upon herself, ignoring my advice and insisting on following Feng Zhengxiong.”

“Feng Wuchen’s reputation is already spreading throughout Jiuzhou. As a Fifth Grade Thought-Forming Instrumentation Artifact Refiner, you, Family Head, should be very clear what that represents. Moreover, he is also a Fourth Rank Alchemist. Such a genius is unparalleled in Jiuzhou. If our relationship with Feng Wuchen turns sour, it will be incredibly detrimental to our Xiao family,” the elder warned with gravity.

At this point, the elder’s gaze turned towards Xiao Qingshan and he rebuked, “Qingshan, you were too impulsive. Feng Wuchen is young and brash, responds to soft approaches but not hard ones. Now, instead of easing the relationship, you’ve made it even worse.”

“I…” Xiao Qingshan faltered, and though frustrated, dared not talk back.

“Chief Elder, do we really have to bow down to them?” another elder protested vehemently.

“Bow down?” The elder shook his head, “You are aware of the revered status of a Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner. Not to mention, he’s a Fifth Grade Thought-Forming Instrumentation Artifact Refiner. The current Feng family is not what it used to be. Do not underestimate the summoning power of a Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner. Feng Wuchen’s status is indeed higher than that of our Xiao family.”

Hearing this, the people of the Xiao family fell silent, very clear on the formidable status of a Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner.

It was because they recognized the extraordinary status of a Fifth Grade Artifact Refiner that the Xiao family had decided to pardon Xiao Qingqing, aiming to improve the relations between the two families.

However, the Xiao family had greatly underestimated Feng Wuchen’s integrity.

“I’m afraid even if we lower our heads, Feng Wuchen might not be willing to serve us,” Xiao Tianchen said gravely. Whether he regretted not acknowledging such a fearsome grandson, only Xiao Tianchen knew.

Who would have thought that a minor Feng family could produce such a formidable genius?

Who would have imagined that the third young master of the Feng family could soar to the heavens and become the strongest presence in the four great empires?

As time quickly passed, half a month went by, and Ling Xiaoxiao, emerging from her cultivation, had successfully broken through to the First Layer of the Tianyuan Realm as naturally as water flowing into a channel.

Half a month had passed in the outside world, but Ling Xiaoxiao had cultivated for the equivalent of a month on the Seventh Layer of the Nine Layers Qiankun Tower, having more than enough time to break through.

“Phew! Finally, I’ve broken through smoothly!” Ling Xiaoxiao exhaled a breath rife with impurities, said with a delighted smile, her fearsome aura soaring wildly, robust and majestic.

Feng Wuchen, standing by her side, said with a joyous smile, “With such a solid foundation, breaking through was as natural as a river flowing into a channel.”

With Ling Xiaoxiao’s terrifying talent, breaking through the Tianyuan Realm was completely stress-free.

The dreadful aura emanating from Ling Xiaoxiao was absolutely spine-chilling.

Ling Xiaoxiao said with a happy laugh, “All thanks to big brother Feng’s tower, along with the many celestial treasures.”

“While we have the time, let’s first solidify the realm of the Tianyuan,” Feng Wuchen continued with a smile.

“Wow! Such a powerful Sword Qi. It seems big brother Feng’s comprehension of the Soul Extinction Sword Technique is getting deeper!” Ling Xiaoxiao exclaimed in admiration, her pretty face lighting up with a sweet smile.

Feng Wuchen nodded and smiled, “The first move of the Soul Extinction Sword Technique should be fully comprehended by now. It took quite some time, but the power has at least doubled!”

Feng Wuchen’s eyes were filled with confidence. Having mastered the first move of the Soul Extinction Sword Technique, he was absolutely certain he could take on Murong Tian. Even if his power was not a match for Murong Tian, the might of this sword technique could surely suppress Murong Tian.

“Xiao Xiao, make the most of our time. In three days, we’re heading to Jiuzhou!” Feng Wuchen continued.

Ling Xiaoxiao stuck out her pink tongue and laughed, “Wherever Feng Brother goes, Xiao Xiao will follow.”

Ling Xiaoxiao had a terrifying barrier to protect her; thus, she was fearless wherever she went.

There were five more days until Xiao Tianchen’s grand seventieth birthday.

Three days later, Feng Wuchen, Ling Xiaoxiao, and Xiao Qingqing set off for Jiuzhou together.

With Xiao Tianchen’s grand seventieth birthday in just two more days, Feng Wuchen’s speed was more than sufficient to make it in time.

Feng Wuchen was hesitant to let Xiao Qingqing go to the Xiao family on her own and initially did not want to go, but now he had no choice but to attend. He couldn’t just let his own mother be bullied by others, could he?

As for Liu Qingyang and the others, they stayed behind to cultivate at the Feng household. Whenever there was time, they had to seize every second for cultivation. Facing such crisis, improving their cultivation was of utmost importance.

This time they were facing the major powers of Jiuzhou, whose strengths were terrifying; any one of them could easily annihilate the Tai Xu Sect.

To Feng Wuchen, Jiuzhou was tantamount to a dragon’s den and a tiger’s lair; this trip was surely fraught with life-threatening danger.

Even if it was a dragon’s den and a tiger’s lair, Feng Wuchen still had to go!

Upon reaching Jiuzhou, it took Feng Wuchen and his companions only half a day.

Feng Wuchen was still quite unfamiliar with Jiuzhou; this was his first visit.

Jiuzhou was Feng Wuchen’s first step towards conquering the Mainland.

If it was the first step, then he must not shrink back!

Under Ling Xiaoxiao’s guidance, Feng Wuchen and the other two found a tavern in Tianfeng City, the closest city to the Xiao family to settle down in. Despite being away from Jiuzhou for over a decade, Xiao Qingqing was still familiar with it.

Just as they entered the tavern, the trio of Feng Wuchen drew the attention of everyone inside. Ling Xiaoxiao’s beauty attracted the gazes of many men.

“Have you heard? The Yanhuo Empire has unveiled an Artifact Refiner capable of ‘Thought-Forming Instrumentation’ at the Fifth Grade, and he’s still very young, the Grand Commander of the Yanhuo Empire!”

“That’s right! I’ve heard too. He’s the number one genius of the Yanhuo Empire! His name is Feng Wuchen, I heard he’s just eighteen this year. The news has just spread to our Jiuzhou, lots of strong individuals are heading to the Yanhuo Empire, hoping to enlist his help with Artifact Refining!”

“Now he’s considered the strongest existence amongst the four great empires, and he’s not outshone even when compared to the geniuses of our Jiuzhou.”

Inside the tavern, just as Feng Wuchen and his company sat down, they overheard the next table discussing Feng Wuchen’s exploits.

“Feng Brother, your fame has even spread to Jiuzhou,” Ling Xiaoxiao said, covering her mouth and laughing softly.

Xiao Qingqing smiled slightly, “With such a big commotion in the four great empires, it’s natural that it couldn’t be concealed. It’s quite normal for it to reach Jiuzhou, especially when our Chen Er is so impressive.”

Feng Wuchen smiled silently.

If only those few knew that Feng Wuchen was seated right at the next table, who knows what expressions they would have.

After a hearty meal, a man walked into the tavern and directly approached Feng Wuchen’s table.

The person was none other than He Mo.

Feng Wuchen was not at all surprised by He Mo’s appearance. He Mo smiled faintly, “Feng Wuchen, I didn’t think you’d actually dare to come to Jiuzhou.”

Feng Wuchen glanced at He Mo and said coldly, “Why wouldn’t I dare?”

He Mo sneered, “I’ve heard that there are quite a few people in Jiuzhou who want to kill you.”

“Quite a few? Do tell,” Feng Wuchen was actually interested, having heard this from Xiao Qingshan as well.

“That I don’t know,” He Mo laughed, “Come on, follow me to the Zangling Valley. The Valley Master is waiting for you. The timing is just right; tomorrow the Valley Master is also going to the Xiao family’s celebration.”

“What a coincidence, we are also going to the Xiao family’s celebration. Since that’s the case, why don’t we wait another two days? Your Valley Master shouldn’t be in a hurry,” Feng Wuchen said indifferently.

“Feng Wuchen, don’t you play tricks. This is Jiuzhou, not the Yanhuo Empire, and don’t forget your father is in our hands!” He Mo pressed his voice and warned sternly.

“Bang!”

Without another word, Feng Wuchen quickly reached out and grabbed He Mo by the neck, causing a loud bang as he pressed He Mo onto the table, startling everyone in the tavern and drawing all eyes to them.

“Threaten me again, believe it or not, I’ll kill you right now?” Feng Wuchen asked icily.

“You wouldn’t dare—the Valley Master will never let you off!” He Mo shouted in panic, not expecting Feng Wuchen to be so audacious even in Jiuzhou!

“Oh? Is that so? Well, I’ll just kill you now!” Feng Wuchen said frostily, grasping He Mo’s neck and tossing him out of the tavern like garbage.

Feng Wuchen’s strength was formidable; He Mo turned into a dark streak as he was flung out, crashing through several pavilion buildings.
