2024-10-29 19:42:56"It's so stupid, he paid the price himself."
"I would have left this location if it were up to me. How shameful."
"It was the guard who struck himself. Give him a taste of what it's like to date someone who isn't susceptible to bullying, like that girl."
"That idiot guard humiliated the Morning Star City Treasure House Hall."
But that chick is just too mean. Sent the exploding charm exactly like that."
"It is not flawed in any way. The same thing would be done if it were me."
The second level of Noble Dish Restaurant, which is crowded with followers of many sects, was filled with a low cacophony of whispering voices.
"Please stop!" Interrupting, Ruan Ceng leaped like a bird to * his bouncer. Following that, he moved slightly backward to avoid getting too close to Yi Zan and Yuan Fen. Presumably from being shocked by an earlier explosion that resulted in his injuries, the guard appeared nearly asleep. But the majority of people in the room believed he would pass out from humiliation.
"You idiot, don't pass out! "Enough to damage the Treasure Hall's reputation," Ruan Ceng said to the guard.
"Lecture. Ruan Ceng is my name. "Hello, I'm from Morning Star City's Treasure Hall," Ruan Ceng stated.
"If you want, may I know who Young Lady and Young Master are?" Ruan Ceng bowed his head, but his voice was demanding as he asked Yuan Fen and Yi Zan to provide a clear explanation. Nobody in Morning Star City dared to disagree with the Treasure Hall's Young Master.
"I am Yuan Fen," Yuan Fen said in a polite reply.
My name is Zuo Yi Zan. Yi Zan responded courteously, "We from the Cloud Sword Sect are having a great time on vacation in Morning Star City. Still, his countenance conveyed hatred for the earlier incident.
Ruan Ceng looked at Yi Zan's uniform robe and inquired again after giving it some thought.
"Miss Zuo Yi Zan is from Green Peak in Cloud Sword Sect, right?" Looking into Ruan Ceng while being polite about it.
I do indeed hail from Green Peak. And my grandfather is Lord Green Peak," Yi Zan comfortingly answered. Still, it was obvious that Ruan Ceng's persistent queries were getting on his nerves.
Ruan Ceng was shocked and tried to disguise it by acting modestly. Aolito is not acquainted with or cognizant of Master Yi, the Cloud Sword Sect's Symbol Master. There were only two Symbol Masters in the Morning Star City area: the Green Peak Master of the Cloud Sword Sect and the elder in the Treasure Hall.
"So this is Green Peak's Miss Zuo. I apologize if my men's previous rudeness caused you both to feel uncomfortable. Ruan Ceng replied in a patronizing manner, "Please give Master Yi my warm greetings; we at the Morning Star City Treasure Hall greatly respect him."
"Please see our treasure hall, Miss Zuo, if you are willing. We provide a large selection of excellent products. Ruan Ceng continued, "I hope Miss finds something appropriate among our belongings.
"It goes without saying that we will visit Morning Star City's Treasure Hall. We anticipate seeing some excellent work. Yi Zan looked at the guard, who appeared to be in pain, and replied, "As long as your men don't interfere."
"All right, all right... We are awaiting the arrival of Bro. Yuan Fen and Miss Zuo in Morning Star City's Treasure Hall. Ruan Ceng bowed and said, "I'm leaving now. I'm leaving the second floor of the Noble Dish Restaurant. My guard follows. I can hear him whimpering in pain."
"Brother worker, didn't you see that the young man named Ruan Ceng has a half-step cultivation level towards the Spirit Condensation Realm?" Yi Zan spoke to Yuan Fen in hushes.
"He will travel from the Mortal Realm to the Spirit Condensation Realm at such a young age. For his age, he is a genius. Yuan Fen remarked, "I'm sure the Treasure Hall must have spent a lot of money on him.
"Luckily, he didn't interfere, so we're still fine," stated Yi Zan.
"And now, let's go to the Hall of Treasures to look," he continued. Yuan Fen simply gave a nod of agreement. It was a lesson that the incident just now taught him. Sometimes taking decisive action is required to earn respect. There are many different types of martial arts practitioners in the world, and being powerful entails becoming noticed. The more determined he was to transcend the Mortal Realm, 5.
The two then merged into the busy Morning Star City after leaving the Noble Dish Restaurant. After wondering around and asking the locals for information, they came to a magnificent, opulent building.
"Whoa! I have never seen a structure this size and level of luxury," Yuan Fen remarked with admiration.
The two kids appeared to be country hicks who had just had their first sight at the opulent structure. Yi Zan's expression was dazzling, filled with appreciation, while Yuan Fen attempted to hide her joy by maintaining a straight expression. This Yuan Fen trembled in his heart. "Only once did I step into such a luxurious building!"
Pulling Yuan Fen's hand, Yi Zan said, "Come on, let's go in."
While all eyes were fixed glaringly on the two toddlers, Yi Zan exuded confidence. They resembled dirt in between precious stones.

Admiration engulfed the two as soon as they entered the Hall of Treasures. Many medical elements draw interest, including plants, roots, medicines, talismans, and more. For the purpose of fighting and improving cultivation, these objects were vital to growers. In addition, there are numerous other medicinal plants and tablets. There were a lot of excited people in the Treasure Hall's ground level exhibition hall.Abruptly, a voice welcomed them from a 20-year-old girl with a charming face and rather formfitting attire.Dear ladies and gentlemen, what herbs or mustika are you in need of? "Ayin is here to assist," the girl remarked as she walked over to Yi Zan and Yuan Fen.Yi Zan muttered to Yuan Fen, "Hmm, this guardian girl's cultivation has even reached Mortal Realm 5."It's incredible, Morning Star City's Treasure Hall. Yi Zan said once more, "The latent strength behind the trading hall like this should not be treated lightly."I only glanced at it. Something still piques my attent
Swordbound Chronicles The Auction Begins.
On the 2nd floor, a 40-year-old man appeared wearing fancy clothes. He was Manager Luo of the Hall of Treasures. He arrived with an elder - Master Ye, the Symbol Master of the Hall of Treasures. Master Ye's job was to appraise amulets, inscriptions, or spirit objects that used symbols. Master Ye's presence will verify all objects related to the Symbol Master.Yuan Fen and Yi Zan greeted Manager Luo and Master Ye while Ayin introduced the two children to them."May I see what items you will sell, young man?" Manager Luo said to Yuan Fen and Yi Zan.Without hesitation, Yuan Fen showed the three types of talismans he had made, all according to the Techniques taught by Yi Zan. Of the three talismans, there was a healing talisman, a teleportation talisman, and a 50-meter teleportation talisman.Manager Luo frowned as he saw it was a 2nd-grade talisman made by a 2nd-grade Symbol Master of a Seal Master. However, there was a very strong mental power coming from the three talismans. He carefu
Swordbound Chronicles Grass Herbs at Auction.
"We are opening this Light Cyperus Grass Herb for only 50 Demi grade Energy Stones. Each bid is a multiple of 10 energy stones," Ruan Ceng concluded for the herbal grass auction price.Restlessly, Yuan Fen complained softly and resignedly, thus attracting Yi Zan's attention."Big brother worker, do you need this grass? I saw you become agitated when the herbs started to be auctioned off," Yi Zan whispered to Yuan Fen.Meanwhile, bids began to be heard from the bidders in the room."60 energy stones!""Give it to me! 70 energy stones." It was time for the high-priced bargaining to begin in the room.Yuan Fen replied limply, "Actually, this Light Cyperus Grass is one of the ingredients for a potion that will help me break through the Mortal Realm 5 realm in no time. I already have the Yellow Phylanthus. And it still requires 2 more ingredients, where one of those auctioned herbs is the missing ingredient for my later potion," Yuan Fen said to Yi Zan."In that case, let me bid on that he

After the auction, the two children headed to the lobby on the 2nd floor to complete the administration of buying and selling auction items.At that moment, Manager Luo was seen serving customers. Yuan Fen and Yi Zan patiently waited for their turn to be served.Suddenly, "Miss Zuo and Brother Wang, we meet here again," Ruan Ceng said in greeting.The two children turned and looked at the young master. "I heard that the three types of talismans auctioned off earlier belonged to you. Perfect quality items," Ruan Ceng added with praise."Thank you for helping us, Bro Ruan Ceng. We're delighted with the price we got," Yuan Fen said with a smile.Ruan Ceng offered a favour, "Actually, what are your plans next? If you want to take a tour of our Treasure Hall, I'd be happy to help,"Excited!"I want to buy a sword to practice with. But the prices of items in this place are quite high. So, I must choose one that suits my financial capabilities," Yuan Fen said.He pondered for a while, then s
Swordbound Chronicles The Assassin - Part 1
Outside Morning Star City, as the sky emitted an orange color as evening approached, two teenage boys, Yuan Fen and Yi Zan, stood waiting for the arrival of the Winged Horse.Meanwhile, all the Cloud Sword Sect students had left the Magical Beast transport area, and the surroundings had become extremely quiet. The Beast Tamers had also left the place and returned to Morning Star City.Not caring about the time showing that it was approaching evening, the two children were chatting annoyingly with each other. Yuan Fen blushed when Yi Zan teased her with all the combat items she had just bought at the Treasure Hall."Worker brother... I'm afraid that when you become a symbol master, your daily life will be filled with hard work to make talismans and then sell them to buy items that enhance your appearance. Truly, you are a super teenager," Yi Zan teased."Hahaha... let me be a dandy; the most important thing is that I can be strong," Yuan Fen retorted.The two laughed at each other's jo

At that crucial moment, the hitman began to threaten. His voice sounded low, making the blu dull dim."Then, you must die this instant," the assassin snapped as he levitated towards Yuan Fen and Yi Zan.While Yi Zan was about to give up his life, Yuan Fen suddenly released a sound with potent mental energy. The effect seemed to affect the assassin's movements."Shut up and don't move," a potent mental energy aura hit the assassin. It was as if an invisible force enveloped him, so his hovering movement stopped mid-air. He stood still and froze.Immediately, the male assassin panicked. From the gleam in his eyes, it could be seen that he was trying to rebel and exert himself to escape from the overflow of mental energy that enveloped him.Slowly, Yuan Fen walked up to the increasingly panicked and silent assassin."Aren't you in the middle of a vast ocean right now? Look carefully; huge waves are crashing over you, and you are helplessly tossed about in this ocean. And most importantly,
Swordbound Chronicles The Sound of Coughing at the Edge of the Fairy Forest.
It was a rather cloudy day in the Cloud Sword Sect Mountain Range. The air was really cold as autumn would soon change to Snow season. Everyone was busy preparing for the coming winter. Preparations included gathering firewood for the cold weather and stocking up on food and other durable materials that would be needed during the winter.In one of the Cloud Sword Sect's worker disciple huts, Yuan Fen was still vigorously striving in his cultivation process to reach the Five Mortal Realm. Currently, he was feeling extremely frustrated as there were no signs that he would manage to break through the defenses blocking his cultivation progress."Do I really have to return to the Fairy Cliff Forest?" lamented Yuan Fen.After thinking for a while, he felt that going to the Fairy Cliff Forest was the only way to reach the Five Mortal Realm in the near future. Moreover, the recruitment day of the Sect Outer Court Students would arrive in 2 weeks."It's likely that the only way is to search fo

"A lonely night with a dead moon illuminated Yuan Fen, who stood alone in the forest. Suddenly, he felt startled, hearing a whisper in his ear. Confused, he turned around and exclaimed, 'Who is it...?'But there was no answer. The forest remained as silent as before.'Did I hear that voice talking about the 5 Sword Kings' Sword Technique and War Chant?' Yuan Fen felt confused. Could this be the chant that Fengyin used to sing? Impossible.Saluting and apologizing, he spoke to those who might be observing him within the forest. Yuan Fen was sure something greater was behind these events, that had been observing his steps on the Fairy Cliff.'What do I know, this forest is the result of a treaty between humans and the Xianren race?' he thought. 'The battle and the song I sang must have interfered.'Suddenly, a coughing sound was heard. The shadow of a person began to appear from within the forest. The man was very handsome, but his appearance was unfamiliar and strange. His hair was a m

He deliberately emphasized "Demon Race Clan" so the ascetic would be scared upon hearing his clan's big name. So far, their Demon Race Clan had dominated the West, so any practitioner in the Western region would think a hundred times before crossing people associated with their clan.However, Mao Ren Hao was surprised that the young ascetic wasn't startled at all; instead, he just smiled blandly. The ascetic, like other wise men, said..."It is not good for a man to kill his baby—his flesh and blood. You must repent because your actions will anger even the demons in hell." His face had the serene look of a saint.Mao Ren Hao was shocked. In his entire life, this was the first time a simple person had given him advice and considered his actions wrong. All this time, everything he did was according to the instructions of his Demon Clan ancestor. No one dared to blame his ancestor—the current Supreme Leader of their Clan.With a face filled with anger, Mao Ren Hao stood up straight. With

Tuiiitt!The sound of a flute rang out, sinking deep into the heart as if breaking the silence.The birds of the forest flew around chaotically, disturbed by the rhythm of the flute, which was becoming increasingly oppressive by the day. The girl's face paled as if the sound of the flute had sucked her blood out. Without hesitation, she immediately handed over her baby to the ascetic man. A sword was drawn, gleaming like silver in the moonlight."The rhythm of death," the girl hissed hoarsely, full of fear.Soon, the flute's sound turned low and became silent. A single figure stood floating halfway up the willow tree, staring coldly at the girl. Its cold aura seemed to pierce through her bones."M-Mao Ren Hao..." the girl's voice stuttered, choked with fear.In front of her, hovering with a cold gaze, was a man wearing an all-black tunic, with hair as black as ink and an ordinary appearance but a powerful aura. He was quite young—around 30 years old—yet so young that he could play the

Suma Fen became highly grateful. Cultivating in this Red Realm, apart from cutting down on time, he felt as if he had been bestowed with the incomparable gift of the Scarlet Rose.The passage of so much time had also changed the young man's appearance. Although his age seemed unchanged—like two months of growth—the growth of his hair, beard, and mustache had visibly adorned his youthful face.As a result, aside from his more mature demeanor, at first glance, one would hardly recognize him as Suma Fen with that mustache and beard. He even looked like a noble—a hermit."Twenty years in this Red Frontier World, my dantian has been in turmoil. Soon, the stronghold of my dantian will be breached; the half-immortal world is in sight," the young man thought.

Unlike Elves, who only need to die and then sail to the afterlife, you need to know that when Elves reach the Enchanted Land, they will not retain the cultivation they had when they died. Everything will start from zero: a new body, a new mind, and a new cultivation..." Suma Fen took careful note of this explanation. Only now did he truly understand what an immortal was and its benefits."That's why I accepted the job as a guard, living in a world where time has come to a standstill," the Guard explained. "Then, the Judges and Angels of Wonderland, who took pity on my condition—not immortal but also nothing—offered me a job as a Guardian in this Border world, guarding the bodies of thousands of practitioners who died when they failed to break through to become Immortal.""Here, my age seems to have come to a standstill due to the miraculous actions of the Angels and Judges of Wonderland.

With a look of disbelief, Suma Fen replied, "I—this... well, it's impossible. You can't be that old, right?" His hand gripped the Black Immortal Sword even tighter.The old man replied flatly, "I am over twenty thousand years old." Although Suma Fen wore a shocked expression, the old man did not care about the change on the young man's face. In reality, the words of being twenty thousand years old hit Suma Fen hard.He continued, "This place is called the 'Border.' I should have killed you when I found you in this forbidden place. But since you are the heir of the two sword kings and considering my friendship with them in the past, I decided not to take your life.""You can live here accompanying me with those thousands of coffins over there," he pointed at the rows of coffins with his eyes."Is there no way out of here?" asked Suma Fen frantically."No! There is no way out of here. You will be here forever. Maybe I'll even consider you my successor, as a 'Guardian'! Guardian is my na

Following the creaking sound that broke the silence of the red world, a figure stood in front of the door. It was a tall, slender man, perhaps barely over six feet tall. This man was probably seventy years old, but he guessed he was over five hundred.The man's face was pretty ordinary—not handsome, but not ugly, either. His white hair was left down, with a little mustache and white beard adorning his flat face.The clothes he wore were made of expensive satin fabric, which was made of layers of all-white color, almost matching his pale skin and face, which was as pale as the moon. That face looked cold and expressionless.Despite having had countless encounters with various humans and other races over the years, the youngster was taken by surprise by the cold appearance before him. Without realizing it, his legs reflexively moved backward."Who are you? And what brings you to this Rose Castle?" a voice echoed in Suma Fen's mind, but he didn't see the person in front of him open his m

...ARC 8. The struggle for the title of supreme...Suma Fen awoke from his sleep on a dry land filled with rocks and hills. As far as the eye could see, everything looked like a dry, reddish-colored expanse of rocky soil, carrying a terrifying aura. This world was absurd, lonely, and dimly lit, with not a single living thing to be found.The only natural lights in this strange world were the moonlight, which looked full like a full moon, and the twinkling stars in the distance. He looked up and gazed at the clear sky—without moving clouds like in the human world. As for the air? Of course, under such circumstances, everything felt cold there. Perhaps it was due to the influence of the moon's energy.(Later, he would finally discover that in this world—this red world has never experienced daylight.)"Am I dead?" he thought.However, when he checked his entire body condition, he started by trying to flow energy from his dantian and then throughout his meridians, "Everything is fine.

The wind was blowing very hard inside the portal room. Hair and all floating objects fluttered in the storm."Keep holding on to each other; don't separate!" shouted Suma Fen.He tightened his grip on the Phoenix's neck while Atid tightly held the Elephant's neck, and the Elephant's trunk wrapped securely around the Phoenix's legs."How long will it take us to move through this portal?" shouted Atid."No more than an hour," Suma Fen replied."Perhaps in about a heartbeat, we will land at the opening portal in the western region of the Silver Continent.""Alright!" replied Atid with satisfaction.Meanwhile...While engrossed in their shouting match, none of them realized that a small explosion had occurred at the very front of the time tunnel, creating sparks.The Phoenix was the first creature to notice the sparks.

The jet of water that came out of the snout of Ryu, the water dragon, instantly froze and turned into sharp, long ice crystals like swords.There were more than five thousand menacing flying swords—locked and ready to roast Bai Chan Cheng into frozen meat."Dead! I'm dead!" Bai Chan Cheng resigned himself and closed his eyes.The flute-like voice of the Elf once again sounded melodious, "Enough! Stop it!"Bai Chan Cheng opened his eyes slowly. He saw the thousands of ice swords standing still. Then they melted and fell to the sand in the form of liquid. Bai Chan Cheng broke out in a cold sweat, with grain after grain dripping down his forehead.After a while, everything became quiet. Slowly, Bai Chan Cheng said, "Lord Baron Wei, please tell me your terms. I will inform our emperor."The Elf remained silent with an expressionless face. Then he said, "Tell your Emperor.
