The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 823: Chapter 823: Grand Scene

Green Field County Prince Manor!

”Have you checked everything clearly?” the Prince asked with concealed excitement in his eyes.

”Yes, it has been confirmed. The person suspected to be Hall Master Jing Yan has entered the mansion of Yan Zhuang, the chairman of Green Field Commerce,” nodded the Chief Manager of the Prince Manor.

As soon as Jing Yan and Gao Feng entered Green Field County, the Guard Captain immediately reported the news. The Prince then sent people to investigate and locate where Jing Yan was staying.

Once the intelligence department of the Prince Manor was in motion, it was not difficult to find out where Jing Yan and Gao Feng were going. Moreover, Jing Yan and Gao Feng did not deliberately hide their tracks. They walked all the way to the Yan Family Mansion, and many people on the road had seen them.

”Indeed, if it truly is Lord Jing Yan, we absolutely must not neglect his visit to our Green Field County. Chief Manager, inform the Clan Leaders of all the major families to come to the Prince Manor immediately to meet with me. After they arrive, I will take them to the Yan Family Mansion,” the Prince said with a firm gaze.

With Jing Yan’s arrival, the Prince of Green Field County indeed dared not be negligent.

Even more so, compared to other Hall Masters visiting Green Field County, his welcome had to be more grandiose. As the Prince of such a major county, he was very aware of the special status of Hall Master Jing Yan.

”Yes!” The Chief Manager responded and left.

...

Inside the Yan Family Mansion, at the banquet.

”Xiao Feng, you can’t leave again this time. From now on, you should stay here in Green Field County. Your uncle here has some capabilities. Staying here is much better than wandering around outside,” Gao Hui said to Gao Feng, frowning as she heard Jing Yan was planning to leave Green Field County with Gao Feng.

”Xiao Feng, your aunt is right. You know, I founded Green Field Commerce myself, and now the commerce is doing quite well. If you need cultivation resources, that definitely won’t be a problem. Just ask for as much as you need,” Yan Zhuang also interjected.

Listening to their parents, Yan Qingbi and his siblings showed displeased expressions on their faces. In their view, Gao Feng was ultimately an outsider, and especially now that she was married, she was even less valuable.

”Cousin, what realm is your Martial Arts Cultivation at now? When you left, you were at a higher realm than me. Now, I am already an Innate Peak Martial Artist,” said Yan Qingbi looking at Gao Feng with a condescending attitude.

”Humph, do you even have the face to say that? How much resources did you consume to reach your current Cultivation? If Xiao Feng hadn’t left and had stayed here, she probably would have already stepped into the Dao Spirit Realm!” Yan Zhuang sharply glanced at Yan Qingbi.

Gao Feng pursed her lips and let out a light laugh.

Hearing Gao Feng’s laugh, Yan Qingbi glared, ”Cousin Feng, what are you laughing at?”

”Nothing... nothing!” Gao Feng shook her head, ”But cousin, my Martial Arts Realm is already at the Daoist Master Realm!”

”What did you say?”

”Daoist Master Realm? Are you joking?” Yan Qingbi’s voice rose sharply.

”Haha, Xiao Feng has learned to joke now,” Yan Kuan laughed, slightly stunned.

Hearing Gao Feng claim she was a Daoist Master Realm Martial Artist, they genuinely did not believe it. After all, among the geniuses of the great families in Green Field County, it was almost impossible to find anyone at the Daoist Master Realm at Gao Feng’s age.

Gao Feng, wandering outside for over thirty years, stepping into the Daoist Master Realm?

That was definitely impossible.

Gao Feng’s aunt, Gao Hui, obviously didn’t believe it either, as could be seen from her expression.

”Feng’er is not joking, she truly is a Daoist Master Realm Peak Martial Artist,” Jing Yan said with a smile.

”...” Yan Qingbi and others rolled their eyes.

That really was boasting to the extreme! A peak of the Daoist Master Realm? That’s just one step away from the Dao King Realm, isn’t it?

The Prince of Green Field County is only a Dao King Realm Peak Martial Artist. And how old is the Prince? How old is Gao Feng?

”Then Jing Yan, what realm are you?” Yan Qingbi asked with a sneer, looking at Jing Yan.

She really wanted to see how much these two could exaggerate.

”My Martial Arts Cultivation is not much higher than Feng’er’s,” Jing Yan said with a light, smiling tone.

Jing Yan was at the Saint Realm, the only Saint Realm Martial Artist on the Heavenly Origin Continent to date. Jing Yan did not say it outright, as saying it might lead Yan Qingbi and others to disbelief.

Yan Zhuang frowned, a strange look in his eyes.

Clearly, he also thought that Jing Yan was exaggerating. Previously, he was quite satisfied with Jing Yan, regardless of his identity or background, prominent family or not, that was not what mattered. What was important was that Gao Feng had chosen Jing Yan, and that was enough.

But now, this young man named Jing Yan was making such absurd claims. Yan Zhuang couldn’t help but consider if there was a problem with Jing Yan’s character.

Hearing Jing Yan’s words, Yan Qingbi and Yan Kuan couldn’t help but snicker.

”Master!”

At that moment, Housekeeper Zhai quickly walked in from outside.

”Housekeeper Zhai, what is it?” Yan Zhuang looked at Housekeeper Zhai.

”Master, the Prince has arrived!” Housekeeper Zhai said with an odd expression.

Just now, the guard had told him that the Prince had arrived, and he had been somewhat incredulous. After verifying, he had taken a deep breath to calm his nerves before coming to report to Yan Zhuang.

”The Prince?”

”Our Prince of Green Field County?” Yan Zhuang was stunned, his expression astonished.

Although Yan Zhuang’s Green Field Commerce was sizable within Green Field County, ranking him as a significant figure, even so, he was still leagues below the Prince. Normally, he found it difficult to see the Prince; the difficulty of gaining an audience at the Prince Manor was high, and whether or not he could see the Prince depended on the Prince’s availability and mood.

But what was going on today?

The Prince had actually come to his door!

Gao Hui also stood there stunned, her eyes incredulous as she looked at Yan Zhuang.

Yan Qingbi and Yan Kuan, after a moment of stunned silence, showed excited and exhilarated expressions.

”Please invite him in quickly!” Yan Zhuang immediately called out, then quickly changed his tone, ”No! I should personally go to greet him.”

”And you all, come with me. The Prince is a distinguished guest, and we cannot neglect the proper etiquette!” Yan Zhuang spoke to the others present.

Jing Yan and Gao Feng exchanged a glance and both smiled.

By now, Jing Yan could guess why the Prince of Green Field County had come to Yan’s place—it was probably because he knew he was here. Speaking of which, the Prince coming over meant that Jing Yan definitely didn’t need to go and greet him. However, Jing Yan was too lazy to explain anything to Yan Zhuang and the others, so going along with them didn’t really matter.

The group got up and majestically headed towards the main gate.

The Yan Family Mansion was not large, and in a moment, Jing Yan and the others had reached the front door.

Yan Zhuang suddenly quickened his pace and hurried out of the courtyard gate.

Once outside, the scene before him was once again staggering. There at the front was indeed the Prince of Green Field County, followed by twenty or so people.
