The Arrogant Immortal-Chapter 80 - Is There Such a Thing as a Younger

The speed of the Little Flying Boat was faster than they had anticipated.

“Dammit, that Lin Family brat is really loaded, actually owning a new Little Flying Boat from the Rongsheng Trading Company.”

“He must be a favored one at home.”

“Isn’t that obvious?”

“Yeah, with both the seventh-tier Array Plate and the Great Tortoise Shell Little Flying Boat, not to mention the high-tier Defense Jade Token hanging at his waist, only a favored family scion could possess such things.”

“That brat is so brazen and fearless; he probably has a Divine Pattern of a Divinity Transformation sealed within him.”

Exactly!

A favored child in the family wouldn’t venture into the Secret Realm without the protection of a Divinity Transformation’s Spiritual Soul, the elders wouldn’t be at ease.

The disciples of the Minghua Sect thought they had seen through everything.

Even Wu Yu and Gongsun Xue thought so, but they knew that beating someone up without killing them wouldn’t cause too much trouble.

It wasn’t necessary to kill someone to torment them!

Once they got their hands on that kid, they’d make sure he’d beg for life and death in vain!

They couldn’t retrieve the Nine Orifices Heart Lotus, but they were determined to beat him up to vent their frustration; otherwise, they feared they might develop some sort of heart disease from the resentment.

However, that cunning brat took the chance to escape on the Flying Boat!

Wu Yu said coldly, “If we can’t hit him, can’t we hit his elder brother, Lin Wangchen?”

Gongsun Xue, with fury in her eyes, clenched her teeth and seethed, “Perfect, I know where Lin Wangchen is training in a certain body of water…”

The two exchanged a glance.

They thought it was an excellent idea!

Thus, unbeknownst to him, Xie Jiuniang had inadvertently acquired two powerful enemies for Lin Wangchen.

And Lin Wangchen had no idea of the looming disaster from above.

At this moment, having successfully extricated herself, Xie Jiuniang heaved a sigh of relief and thought it was a close call.

Alone, she flew toward the direction of the small island.

Jian Lingyan emerged from the Contract Space and circled around Xie Jiuniang like a child showing off new clothes, vying for attention.

Xie Jiuniang had noticed that, while the Broken Sword remained broken, missing a third of its blade, it had transformed significantly since before her seclusion, exhibiting a glimpse of its extraordinary nature.

“Little Jianjian, what are you twirling around for? You’re making me dizzy,” Xie Jiuniang had no intention of praising this troublemaker.

What she wanted more now was to find a place to carefully check her body, Dantian, Sea of Consciousness, and various other conditions.

Jian Lingyan, failing to impress, felt somewhat dejected, “Didn’t you notice I’m extraordinary now?”

“I noticed, very extraordinary!”

When Jian Lingyan perked up again, Xie Jiuniang’s tone suddenly shifted, speaking solemnly, “I’ve discovered you’re extraordinarily deserving of a beating! If it weren’t for your master’s unparalleled wisdom and shrewdness, this time you would’ve got us killed…”

Jian Lingyan felt guilty.

With a whoosh, it ducked back into the Contract Space and didn’t dare to show itself again.

Xie Jiuniang wasn’t really blaming it; she just didn’t want it to get cocky again.

Ever since it found out she was the Child of Destiny, this devastatingly broken sword actually started to think quite highly of itself.

Xie Jiuniang tapped on the Contract Totem, but there was no response. She tapped again and spoke, “Stop playing dead. Hurry up and find me a safe place. I need to go into seclusion.”

“You have the Great Tortoise Shell; any place will do,” Jian Lingyan replied irritably, her petty master is still that same petty master.

Just hearing her speak was infuriating!

Upon hearing that, Xie Jiuniang thought it made sense and followed up with another question, “Are there any high-tier Demonic Beasts nearby?”

“No,” replied Jian Lingyan.

Xie Jiuniang looked around, saw no islands, and realizing that the nearest deserted island was a day’s flight away, she steered the Little Flying Boat underwater to search for a relatively flat spot to settle.

She threw out the Tortoise Shell and set up the array.

With a high-quality Water-Repelling Pearl, she didn’t need to worry about attacks from ordinary water beasts.

Xie Jiuniang scraped a few glow-emitting stones from the seabed and carried them into the Tortoise Shell, instantly illuminating the pitch-dark space.

The interior had been tidied up by Xie Jiuniang earlier and was very clean. Nevertheless, she cast the Dust Cleansing Technique inside and out over a dozen times.

Xie Jiuniang felt that the Great Tortoise Shell was pretty good, except that the little hole was a major weakness; she would refine a door for it when she had time.

In fact, she could have gone to an Artifact Refining Master to have the Great Tortoise Shell turned into a Magic Artifact, which would then be small and convenient to carry.

The problem was, she currently had no powerful backing and was just a small fry, someone whom anyone could bully. If she were to hand over the Great Tortoise Shell for refining, it would likely be like throwing a meat bun to a dog—gone, never to return.

Xie Jiuniang then moved a large stone to block the entrance and had Jian Lingyan protect her while she cultivated.

Peace and quiet, with no one to disturb her.

She checked her Spiritual Soul first thing.

The Spiritual Soul was stable and had grown significantly; furthermore, her Sea of Consciousness had been successfully established…

Good heavens!

It was more than ten times larger than the Sea of Consciousness she had established during Foundation Establishment in her previous life, and its color was distinctly different from before.

In her previous life, it was deep blue, but now it was silver; the Time Leaf floated above the silver ocean, leisurely and carefree.

Xie Jiuniang was so annoyed she itched for a fight.

Unfortunately, the Time Leaf, unlike the Sword Spirit, had no intelligence of its own and was utterly uncommunicative.

However, the mutation of her Sea of Consciousness was definitely something she couldn’t let others know about. Otherwise, it would be troublesome as others would certainly think of precious treasures.

Next, she observed her Dantian.

There was a vast Spiritual Lake in her Dantian.

Much stronger than in her previous life.

This was the correct way for a Child of Destiny to unfold; in her previous life, she was ignorant and naive—it was truly pitiful.

Following that, Xie Jiuniang began to adapt to the strength of Foundation Establishment, not forgetting to test the duration of her foresight.

What a pleasant surprise!

She could foresee events up to a quarter of an hour!

No longer just increasing by moments. A quarter hour of foresight, even if still limited to affairs concerning herself, could be of great use at critical moments.

For instance, the incident with the mining of Spiritual Marrow…

Then came testing the duration of Time Retrospection—about a day and a half.

She had broken through a major rank, achieving a qualitative leap. The entire process was a bit of a pitfall, but the outcome was very satisfying.

During the days Xie Jiuniang was in closed-door cultivation,

on the other hand, Lin Wangchen’s journey was not going smoothly.

Leading the disciples of Fafeng, they were repeatedly targeted by the people of Minghua Sect, who deliberately raced ahead of them to snatch resources.

Especially Wu Yu and Gongsun Xue of Minghua Sect, like two mad dogs, they clung to him relentlessly, and even clamored for him to make the Lin Family hand over the Nine-Orifice Spiritual Lotus?

The absurd Nine-Orifice Spiritual Lotus!

How could such a thing from legends exist? Even if it did, he had never obtained it, not even seen it, let alone hand it over. He suspected that the pair was just using any old excuse to make trouble.

They seemed to want to anger him several times, hoping to provoke a fight?

If it were just about fighting, Lin Wangchen would not fear it.

But he vaguely sensed something was amiss!

The malice in Wu Yu and Gongsun Xue’s eyes was far too evident.

In the end, he secretly captured a disciple of Minghua Sect and forced a confession.

Finally, he learned the ins and outs of it!

He was so enraged that his handsome face turned dark. Who was the bastard impersonating a member of the Lin Family and even claiming to be his, Lin Wangchen’s, own younger brother?

Did the people of Minghua Sect not have brains? Where would there be such a younger brother who could pit his elder brother like this?

If there were…

He would be the first to strangle him!
