Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

”Young brother, what’s the good of joining their Fierce Tiger Team? Why not join the ’Black Panther Team’? Your survival ability will be at least increased by fifty percent!”

As Yun Xiao turned his head, a short and stout man hurried over, and the words he said instantly made the face of the Fierce Tiger Team’s leader darken.

”Song Monkey, are you looking for trouble again?”

The leader of the Fierce Tiger Team was burly and muscular, with a rather hot temper, and seemed to have some grudge with the short and stout man called ”Song Monkey,” as he immediately shouted angrily.

Hearing the rather impolite tone of the Fierce Tiger Team’s leader, a few people behind Song Monkey immediately surrounded them, but just by looking at their physique, they were far from comparable to the Fierce Tiger Team.

The Fierce Tiger Team, led by their robust leader, was quite burly, while the so-called Black Panther Team, including Song Monkey, consisted of all short and lean individuals.

However, in Yun Xiao’s eyes, appearances are never deceiving, and not necessarily the stronger-looking guys are more formidable.

Moreover, from the names of the two teams, Yun Xiao could tell what they were skilled in, and there was definitely some friction due to their constant recruitment and team formation.

”Qi Hu, don’t think just because of your foolish strength that our Black Panther Team will fear you. If you have the guts, why not duel me? Dare you?”

The Black Panther Team’s leader, Song Monkey, though he looked fine and detailed, seemed to have a temper not much different from the Fierce Tiger Team’s leader, Qi Hu, as a disagreement quickly escalated to a challenge of a ”duel.”

”Qi Hu, Song Monkey, are you causing trouble in Wuchuan City again?”

Just when the situation was tense, a somewhat low voice suddenly came over, causing Yun Xiao to turn his head, while Qi Hu and Song Monkey, who were aggressive just moments ago, suddenly changed their expressions, and their aura was instantly restrained.

”Haha, we were just competing for a newcomer, Family Head Lv misunderstood!”

Song Monkey changed his expression quickly, and after the anger faded from his face, he wore a smile, his tone carrying a hint of flattery, making Yun Xiao wonder what kind of person this so-called Family Head Lv was.

Yun Xiao had some understanding of Wuchuan City before, knowing that it was within the range of Yanji Lake, a no-man’s-land.

Wuchuan City, connecting to Xuanyin Hall in the east, Wuyan Palace in the west, and the formidable power of Demons Mountain to the north, was not a place where the three major forces wanted to have too fierce conflicts.

Over time, Wuchuan City became a haven for independent practitioners or desperados, where those who could stand firm were all ruthless individuals.

Given the attitude of Qi Hu and Song Monkey, who almost fought at any disagreement, it was a glimpse of Wuchuan City, but the presence of Family Head Lv, instantly subdued these two hot-tempered individuals, indicating that he was definitely a dominant figure in Wuchuan City.

However, Yun Xiao was merely curious. With Family Head Lv’s Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage cultivation, he was not impressed and considered whether to hide his identity and join these teams heading to Yanji Lake.

After all, Yun Xiao knew about the four pieces of Wuyan Cloth, which were known in Extreme Yin City, not only by the few in Wuyan Palace, but perhaps others also got the news.

Even though this place was very far from Extreme Yin City, with ordinary cultivators intending to go to Yanji Lake for treasures, there’s no reason Wuyan Palace wouldn’t notice their ancestral land.

Hiding among these ordinary small teams could conceal his identity, and those who had only heard his name might not recognize him at first glance.

”Song Monkey, Qi Hu, I’m warning you. Don’t cause any trouble under my watch, or you won’t be leaving Wuchuan City!”

This Family Head Lv didn’t seem to be a benevolent leader. His next words left the two speechless, with no further attempts to recruit Yun Xiao, and they sullenly retreated to the street sides.

However, occasional glances of hostility suggested that their resentment did not dissipate due to Family Head Lv’s words.

”Young brother, wait a moment!”

Just as Yun Xiao shook his head helplessly and was about to head deeper into Wuchuan City, Family Head Lv suddenly spoke up, making him turn back in surprise.

”Is there something?”

Regarding a practitioner at the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage, Yun Xiao didn’t have any worries. If the other party wanted to cause trouble, he didn’t mind adding another corpse to Wuchuan City, as it was already chaotic.

”I am Lv An, the Family Head of the Lv Family. In this Wuchuan City, I have some influence. I see young brother alone, I wonder if you have any interest in joining our Lv Family’s treasure hunting team heading to Yanji Lake?”

Lv Family Head Lv An’s eyes flashed with a trace of brilliance, but he concealed it well, and the next words he spoke made Yun Xiao’s expression become somewhat strange.

It’s important to know that under Yun Xiao’s deliberate suppression, his current cultivation level was only the Peak of Qi Seeking Realm, even inferior to some ordinary members of the Fierce Tiger Team or Black Panther Team over there.

Since this Lv Family Head could subdue those two, it indicated that his family’s power was quite considerable in Wuchuan City. Normally, why would he be interested in a young man who is only at the Peak of Qi Seeking Realm?

”Young brother, joining our Lv Family is certainly much better than joining those two guys’ teams. I guarantee, as long as you truly contribute, you can choose whichever treasure our Lv Family obtains at that time, how about it?”

Seeing the other person hesitating, Lv An continued speaking a bunch of words to entice, and the last sentence made Qi Hu and Song Houzi, who hadn’t gone far, have a brightened expression, considering whether to join Lv Family’s treasure hunting team directly.

It’s just that even if these two wanted to join, Lv An might not necessarily let them. Perhaps it was only this strange young man in front of him that he felt an unusual sensation from, prompting such deliberate solicitation.

”I wonder what the Family Head sees in me? Is it my cultivation at the Peak of Qi Seeking Realm?”

Yun Xiao replied nonchalantly, yet at this moment he asked back rhetorically, though he wasn’t overly concerned about this Lv An at the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage, he didn’t wish to provoke too much trouble in this chaotic city of Wuchuan.

”Hehe, young brother, you don’t have to pretend in front of me. Your cultivation at the Peak of Qi Seeking Realm might fool those two idiots, but you can’t deceive this Family Head!”

Upon hearing Yun Xiao’s words, Lv An’s face revealed a ”you know, I know” expression, and what he said indeed caused Yun Xiao to be slightly surprised, thinking could this guy at the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage actually sense his true cultivation?

”I guess young brother should have already broken through to the Early Stage of Origin Seeking Realm?”

Lv An suddenly leaned over, his voice pressed very low, seemingly fearing others might hear. Upon hearing this, Yun Xiao instantly realized, secretly thinking indeed, he was overthinking.

But speaking of it, if Lv An could sense Yun Xiao’s cultivation at the Half-step Earth Realm, he probably wouldn’t have this attitude as a superior. In this Wuchuan City, whoever has the bigger fist can claim dominance.

Half-step Earth Realm, that would almost make one the overlord of Wuchuan City, as there are no branches of the Spirit Fighting Commerce or the Meridian Refining Master Guild here, nor are there other top-tier or first-class forces stationed.

Even Lv An, at the Origin Seeking Realm Late Stage, could establish a family to dominate the eastern area of Wuchuan City, which shows that this chaotic city’s level isn’t that high.

Lv An believed he saw through Yun Xiao’s strength, thus aroused a shred of interest, after all, such a young boy can cultivate Meridian Qi to the Early Stage of Origin Seeking Realm, which is already an extraordinary talent, comparable to some geniuses of first-class forces.

As back when Yun Xiao encountered Li Qingran the Five Thunder Child of Sky Thunder Valley, he only reached the level of Half-step Origin Seeking Realm. Lv An wanted to take this opportunity through the expedition to Yanji Lake to recruit this talented young man into the Lv Family, so perhaps they could occupy more territory in Wuchuan City.

Yet Lv An didn’t know, this crudely dressed young man before him had caused chaos throughout the four super forces on Tenglong Continent, far from being an ordinary genius as imagined.

If Lv An knew this boy he aimed to recruit had once offended massive entities like Spirit Fighting Commerce and Wuyan Palace, how would he react? Would he slap himself on the face?

”Tsk, tsk, Lv Family Head’s gaze is indeed uncommon!”

Yun Xiao’s eyes flashed with a smile as he raised his thumb and praised, then nodded, saying: ”Since the Lv Family Head invites so warmly, Brother Xingchen finds it hard to refuse graciousness.”

”So young brother is named Xingchen, indeed a good name!”

Gattling a positive reply, Lv An felt quite pleased, being lifted by compliments, he reluctantly praised the name Xingchen, of which there were at least hundreds on Tenglong Continent.

”Hehe, Xingchen, a name unused for long, will it resound again on Tenglong Continent this time?”

Yun Xiao’s eyes revealed a trace of heroic spirit, meanwhile, in the depths of his mind emerged a vision of a black-dressed graceful woman holding a Jinghong Umbrella, as if engraved into his very soul, lingering eternally.

”Brother Xingchen, come with me, let me introduce you to some friends of similar age!”

As Yun Xiao was musing sentimentally, Lv An’s voice sounded again. Having decided to join Lv An’s team for now, he said no more, proceeding to follow the Lv Family Head towards a nearby place.

At that place, already stood a dozen people, ranging from old to young, upon seeing Lv An approach, their expressions were first respectful, but soon their gazes turned to the crudely dressed young man beside him.
