Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law-Chapter 370: Jiang Feng’s Little Trick

"What terrifying energy," Yu Xin said with an utterly shocked expression after she finished absorbing it.

In just this short while, how many layers had her cultivation broken through?

"There’s still a lot of energy left on this Stone Knife. We’ve absorbed less than one thousandth of it. After you break through to the Seventh Rank, you can absorb the rest," Xu Ping’an said.

"You don’t want the Stone Knife?" Yu Xin asked in surprise.

It seemed that Xu Ping’an intended to give her the Stone Knife.

However, Xu Ping’an shook his head, "My spleen has already evolved, and absorbing more of this power won’t be very effective for me. It will be more useful to you. Combined with the Earth Spirit Pearl, it’s enough for you to cultivate to the Ninth Rank, and if you can break through to the Tenth Rank, perhaps you could use it as a vessel."

"But…" Yu Xin was utterly astonished.

Xu Ping’an was actually giving such a precious item to her?

Such a treasure was coveted by Ninth Rank Experts, let alone someone at the Seventh Rank.

And yet, Xu Ping’an was giving it to her so decisively, which was simply unbelievable to her.

Xu Ping’an, however, was not looking at Yu Xin anymore but at the Array Plate before him.

"Come out," suddenly Xu Ping’an bellowed, his palm swiftly reaching towards a spot on the Array Plate.

Yu Xin wore a puzzled face, but in the next moment, she revealed a surprised expression.

The place where Xu Ping’an’s hand reached was empty, but as his True Yuan palm was about to hit, a small earthy-yellow dragon suddenly burst out from the void, rapidly fleeing, attempting to escape the Array Plate.

"Is this... a dragon?" Yu Xin’s face was filled with horror.

Xu Ping’an also looked at the small dragon, his face showing astonishment as he exclaimed, "It’s not a real dragon, it’s a dragon shape formed by an Earth Dragon Vein."

Earth Dragon Vein?

Yu Xin’s face was one of shock.

The Earth Dragon Vein was a legendary treasure; such an item was not something one could possess lightly, even a great power having it would ensure their legacy for a thousand years unabated.

And to think that this small earthy-yellow dragon was the legendary Earth Dragon Vein.

Xu Ping’an had not expected to find an Earth Dragon Vein here either.

For Cultivators of the Earth Attribute, the Earth Dragon Vein was an incredibly precious treasure.

If one could obtain the Earth Dragon Vein, then it would be like gaining a cultivation accelerator for a Cultivator of the Earth Attribute.

The speed of cultivation could increase tenfold, or even a hundredfold.

However, this Earth Dragon Vein seemed to be just a rudimentary form and didn’t possess much Earth power yet.

But to Xu Ping’an, it was still a rare treasure, and if it were to grow in the future, it would become an extremely terrifying treasure.

Xu Ping’an immediately continued to reach for the small earthy-yellow dragon.

The little dragon kept fleeing; it was very fast.

Luckily, it couldn’t escape the range of the Array Plate; otherwise, once it burrowed underground, Xu Ping’an would have had no chance of catching it.

"I refuse to believe I can’t catch you," Xu Ping’an declared and immediately unleashed Thunder Imperial Nine Heavens, bringing his speed to its utmost limit.

The small earthy-yellow dragon kept dodging, and Xu Ping’an kept making moves, his speed skyrocketing.

One man, one dragon—continuously flitting around within the bounds of the Array Plate.

It had to be said, the speed of this small earthy-yellow dragon was very fast, already reaching the speed of an Eighth Rank.

"Hmph, thinking of escaping is impossible," Xu Ping’an said, and with a flash, he directly conjured two doppelgangers.

The little dragon was clearly startled, not expecting Xu Ping’an to be capable of creating duplicates.

Although these duplicates didn’t have great Attack Power, the small earthy-yellow dragon equally had no Attack Power.

So catching the little dragon was still feasible.

Finally, under the pincer attack of the three duplicates, the little dragon was eventually caught by Xu Ping’an.

The little dragon kept struggling in Xu Ping’an’s hand, but he had no intention of letting it go.

At last, the little dragon seemed to give up struggling, suddenly burrowing into Xu Ping’an’s body and eventually settling down in his spleen, refusing to come out again.

"Huh?" This turn of events left Xu Ping’an somewhat baffled.

The little dragon taking over his spleen—what did this mean?

Was it planning on using his body as its territory?

Xu Ping’an tried to command the little dragon this time, but the little dragon didn’t move at all. Left with no choice, Xu Ping’an had to give up.

"Forget it, let it be for now, I’ll find a way to tame you in the future," Xu Ping’an said.

This earthy yellow little dragon was not a real demon beast, but essentially a type of earth energy.

Yu Xin also looked surprised. The earth dragon vein entered Xu Ping’an’s body?

"Are you alright?" Yu Xin asked.

"I’m fine, but for now, I don’t know whether it entering my body is good or bad," Xu Ping’an said with a wry smile.

Yu Xin nodded, "Still, you should be careful."

"Let’s go, the treasures here have probably all been taken. If I’m not wrong, the people from the Heavenly Spirit Realm who came here were probably after this earth dragon vein," Xu Ping’an said.

Yu Xin nodded.

Although the stone knife was precious, it was still somewhat inferior compared to the earth dragon vein.

Once the earth dragon vein grew, it could support an entire sect.

"The commotion just now wasn’t small, it must have attracted quite a number of people. I’m afraid that the Seventh Prince of the Great Flame Immortal Dynasty won’t let this go so easily," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

Yu Xin nodded, she could see that the Seventh Prince clearly intended to reap the benefits without any effort.

How could he let them go?

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

Just then, the sound of objects tearing through the air could be heard.

Jiang Feng, leading a group of people, was rapidly approaching.

Xu Ping’an’s eyes narrowed. Can’t hold back anymore, huh?

Too bad for these guys, they’re too late.

If they had arrived a bit earlier, Xu Ping’an might have been in some trouble.

Now that the treasures were already taken by them, it was impossible for these people to make them spit it out.

"Huh?" Jiang Feng appeared in front of Xu Ping’an and the others.

When he saw Yu Xin and Xu Ping’an, a look of surprise crossed his face.

It’s not Bai Chen?

Looking at the corpses of Qin Jingjing and Huang Yue next to him, he seemed to understand something.

"Are you Bai Chen or someone else?" Jiang Feng asked.

Xu Ping’an suddenly laughed when he heard this.

"My name is Xu Ping’an, I was not known as Bai Chen before," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

"Xu Ping’an?" The name seemed familiar, and a Seventh Rank Ninth Layer Realm youth behind Jiang Feng said in surprise.

Jiang Feng’s eyes narrowed as he scrutinized Xu Ping’an and said, "So you are Xu Ping’an?"

"You know me?" Xu Ping’an was somewhat surprised.

He didn’t expect that Jiang Feng in front of him actually knew of him.

"I’ve heard your name. Now I finally understand why you asked me about Su Chan. You must be the ’dear friend’ she mentioned, right?" Jiang Feng sneered, looking at Xu Ping’an with a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"Oh? Auntie mentioned me?" Xu Ping’an was surprised, but not shocked in his heart.

"Haha, your name is well-known in the Great Flame Immortal Dynasty’s imperial city by now. That wretch Su Chan has publicly declared you her man, refusing all proposals. I don’t know how many young talents in the imperial city want to kill you," Jiang Feng said with a cold sneer.

Wretch?

Xu Ping’an’s eyes narrowed, a deep chill flashing through them.

This Jiang Feng really was no good, calling his own aunt a wretch.

Seeing the murderous intent in Xu Ping’an’s eyes, Jiang Feng’s face remained unconcerned and he continued, "Angry, am I wrong? She is a wretch by nature. Whether she is my father’s daughter is still uncertain. Even if she is, she’s the child of my father and some lowly woman. The key point is that you call her auntie and yet you’re involved with her. Such an incestuous affair, if she’s not a wretch what is she?"

"You’re seeking death," Xu Ping’an’s eyes were filled with intense killing intent.

"Haha, come on and kill me then. I want to see what abilities you have that make that wretch think so highly of you," Jiang Feng mocked.

Xu Ping’an’s eyes narrowed slightly and he took a deep breath before coldly saying, "You’re trying to provoke me so I lose my reason and flush out the information about the treasures here from my mouth, aren’t you? Your little trick is a bit too crude. Acting like this will only get you killed faster."

Hearing this, Jiang Feng’s eyes narrowed suddenly, not expecting Xu Ping’an to see through his ploy.
