The King of Urban Mercenaries-Chapter 1355 - 1358: Aura

"Why? We’ve paid, we can’t waste half a day’s time!" A tourist said.

The person in charge offered a solution: "How about this, come back this afternoon, and with your ID card, you can get some compensation. Is that acceptable?"

"No way! We have to go!" A tourist was determined to make a fuss. The person in charge nodded and said to the soldiers, "Don’t let anyone in, or else arrest them and detain them for ten days or half a month. And if these people don’t want compensation, then cancel it."

After saying this, the person in charge ignored the tourists and turned to leave. The troublemaking tourists were dumbfounded, and soon felt the anger of the other tourists around them, which quickly turned into complaints.

"Going on a trip and encountering such people, it’s really frustrating. It seems that while our Mo Country is vast and abundant, there’s no shortage of scum."

"Exactly, even promises of compensation don’t satisfy them. If it weren’t for something important, I don’t believe they’d mobilize the army. Since it’s an important national matter, causing a public disturbance shows signs of rebellion. He must be a traitor!"

Soon, that tourist was labeled a traitor and slunk away in shame.

Lin Fei followed Liu Muqing to the top of Man Mountain. Along the way, they saw many tourists coming down, giving them strange looks, but Lin Fei and Liu Muqing seemed oblivious as they reached the summit of Man Mountain.

At the summit of Man Mountain, on Jade Emperor Peak, there was a large courtyard, surrounded by broad open grounds. Liu Muqing said, "Little junior brother, come with me, I’ll take you to a great place."

The two of them arrived at the highest point of Jade Emperor Peak, where a massive boulder that looked like it had fallen from the heavens lay on the eastern side. They climbed onto this huge stone; below was a steep cliff, as if the stone might fall if not careful. Two-thirds of the stone they stood on was hanging over the cliff.

The two approached the edge of the boulder. Liu Muqing let Lin Fei walk ahead, and as Lin Fei neared the edge, Liu Muqing suddenly pushed him over the cliff...

"..." Lin Fei was startled, but he didn’t react, letting his body fall. Just as he was about to fall off, he suddenly felt someone grab his clothes from behind, stopping his descent.

Liu Muqing grabbed him and pulled him back up. Liu Muqing said, "I really didn’t expect it, junior brother, your courage is impressive, not being afraid."

Lin Fei had already cursed Liu Muqing hundreds of times in his heart. Of course he was scared; he couldn’t fly, so he decided not to move. He believed Liu Muqing wouldn’t harm him, and even if he did, not so openly. So panicking wouldn’t help.

As his body plummeted, words wouldn’t save him; the only chance of survival was for the person behind him to pull him back, or else he wouldn’t survive.

"Senior brother, you’re such a prankster. If I didn’t know your actual age, I might treat you like a little brother," Lin Fei said. Though the words were loaded with sarcasm, they sounded perfectly fine.

Liu Muqing didn’t mind, laughed, and said, "Live life to the fullest, play to the fullest; no matter how you see me, I’m still your senior brother, just testing your courage."

Lin Fei laughed and said nothing. He stood atop Man Mountain and on a giant stone, savoring the view of the mountains below him from a height.

"How about it? This Jade Emperor Peak used to be the place where emperors enfeoffed nobles, and many have come here to enjoy the scenery. Where you’re standing now is where emperors once stood," Liu Muqing said.

"Hehe, with your words, senior brother, I really feel a sense of greatness," Lin Fei laughed, watching the sun in the distance, feeling closer to the sky.

"Stay here and ponder for a bit. I used to come here often with senior brother, who seemed to find what he was looking for here. I’ve also gained insights here. I brought you here hoping you’ll find what you seek. I won’t disturb you, I’ll come back for you when the initiation ceremony starts," Liu Muqing said, leaving.

Listening to Liu Muqing, Lin Fei took a deep breath, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and silently felt the Heaven and Earth Qi and what he sought.

What did he want? Lin Fei himself didn’t know. He didn’t know how to find it, but he could quietly feel the aura of the entire Man Mountain.

Lin Fei knew that every view brings different feelings to different people, so he too would have his own feelings. He sat cross-legged to quiet his mind, to more clearly feel that mood, to become more sensitive. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Man Mountain, standing alone among the Five Mountains, Lin Fei soon felt that invisible momentum, an imperial aura perhaps because many emperors had come here to worship before.

Suddenly!

A massive imperial aura rushed into Lin Fei’s mind, distinct from anything else. He felt like a dragon winding around Man Mountain, roaring at Lin Fei as if telling him something.

"Is this my feeling? What I want?" Lin Fei thought. Others couldn’t see it; it was only in his mind, perhaps his imagination.

Yet the aura gradually entered Lin Fei’s body; it was formless, invisible, untraceable. Even master-level individuals couldn’t see it, something only Lin Fei could experience, not even to be called "seeing!" It was a sense, an indescribable thing.

But Lin Fei clearly felt it, touched it, understood that these forces existed, solidified, and entered his body.

Perhaps it didn’t exist, maybe it was nothing, but Lin Fei changed because of these intangible things, things he couldn’t trace.

The change was very noticeable, perhaps what science calls self-hypnosis, but in the extraordinary world of the Ancient Martial Artist, science couldn’t explain it!

Finally, Lin Fei opened his eyes, and at that moment, a powerful force seemed to sleep within him, making him extraordinarily confident!
