Chapter 508: Good root, good fruits

Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu had their face solemn, looking at him coldly.
âDo you think itâs interesting?â Shuang Yu Zhu snorted. âIf the perverts like you werenât as many as fishes in the river, how could we have to endure so many troubles like that? We donât rely on other people, but only this poor land to cultivate. Itâs unavoidable that the strong warriors have laid their eyes on us. Why you, a junior, want to laugh at us, too?â
Shi Yan felt embarrassed, âAh, I didnât mean that. I just said casually.â
âIn the world where the stronger is the king, women are always falling into the disadvantaged situation. The Ice Jade technique weâre cultivating has some special requirements. We have to stay virgin, and we canât use our beauty as a weapon. This stirs up many men. Since the very beginning, weâve been walking on a rough cultivation path.â
Bing Qing Tong sighed, her eyes complicated. She shook her head and told him reluctantly. âI know your manners arenât bad. Otherwise, you wouldnât just simply ask for the Cold Chalcedony. My sisters, the second and the third, arenât bad. They just want to compete with me. They were discontented when our mother ordained me as the Master of the Ice Emperor City. In fact, my second and third sisters are miserable. Weâre all orphans. Without our adoptive mother, we would have ended up in some brothelâŠâ
Having heard her share their life experiences, Shi Yan became more embarrassed. He didnât know what to say to save this situation.
âOur fate isnât as good as yours. You have a good teacher and a strong background. Your road of cultivation is clear. Your master has wiped off all the obstacles for you.â As Bing Qing Tong assumed that he was the disciple of some old monsters, so she was talking with a bitter tone that revealed her envy.
âIâm always on my own. Itâs just my fate is a bit better.â Shi Yan beamed a wry smile. Obviously, Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu didnât believe him. They pouted their lips but didnât say anything.
From their point of views, if it werenât because of the strong background Shi Yan had, with only his efforts, he could have never entered the Sky Realm, let alone having the Ice Cold Flame and the Earth Flame at the same time. Even if Shi Yan explained to them, they would think that he had concealed something about his master.
Shi Yan didnât explain further.
âMothers, you donât want to wash up?â Bing Wei said tenderly, coming forward from the lake. Her phoenix eyes squinted, observing Shi Yan with curiosity.
When they were in the snow mountain range, she thought that Shi Yan was just a random guy who had strong powers. Unexpectedly, after they had returned to the Ice Emperor City City, she got to know from her mother that this man had the Ice Cold Flame and another type of hot heaven flame. This scared her a lot, as she realized that there was a layer of mystery covering him.
In fact, these women from the Ice Emperor City City didnât contact people from outside. Their friends were all female. Young men with extraordinary features like Shi Yan rarely appeared in the Ice Emperor City City.
Thus, these young ladies were eyeing Shi Yan with surprise.
âNo need, you guys should restore your energies, and we shall leave soon. Donât waste time here,â Bing Qing Tong shouted. Bing Wei tucked her tongue out, but didnât come forward anymore. She then sat by the lake, closing her eyes to meditate.
âQiang-jie, is that man from the Endless Sea?â Shuang Yu Zhuâs daughter, Shuang Zi muttered, looking at Shi Yan from afar. âI think he isnât a barbarian. His build isnât bad, strong and majestic. A man like him should have some fame in the Pure Land or the Radiant God Cult, right?â
âHe said he came from the Endless Sea,â Bing Qiang snorted inside. âBut we canât believe his words. He has the Ning familyâs Devouring Gold Silkworm. I heard that Ning Ze was killed inside the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist. I doubt that this man had done the murder. Hey, I also heard that thereâs an old monster in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist. Perhaps heâs the line disciple of that old man.â
Shuang Ziâs eyes brightened as she nodded gently, âSure it is. Hmm, Ning Ze, the pervert got killed. Excellent! I heard that Ning Ze longed for marrying Ai Ya. Itâs unexpected that he met a tragic event. This man is tough, indeed.â
The other girls around heard that Shi Yan might have killed Ning Ze, so they all showed their interest in the story, sneaking looks at Shi Yan and discussing boisterously in low tones. However, right at this moment, Bing Qing Tongâs countenance changed. She shot up from her seat, looking at a precipitous mountain which had many green big trees.
âDa-jie?â Shuang Yu Zhu also stood up quietly.
âA strong warriorâs over there,â Bing Qing Tong said with a serious face.
âIs that him?â Shuang Yu Zhu felt chilled. She turned to the other girls. âAll stay alert!â
âNo, not himâŠâ Bing Qing Tong shook her head. âThird Sister and Second Sister arenât here. I can sense the aura of the Banner family of the White Emperor City City. That isnât a Third Sky of Spirit Realm warrior. He has only the Second Sky of Spirit Realm cultivation base. He should be one of the Banners.â
Shuang Yu Zhu relaxed her tense nerves on hearing that, âThe Banner family in the White Emperor City is also a strong force. I heard that the head of the Banners and the City Master of the War Emperor City are sworn brothers. The Banners and we belong to the Fighting Union. He wonât trouble us. If heâs from the Banner family, we donât need to hurry.â
âHere he comes,â Bing Qing Tong contemplated and then closed her eyes. Abruptly, she let out a breath and then beamed a faint smile. âShould be Bei Si of the Banners. Although this guyâs arrogant, he knows the rules and respects justice. Iâve met him sometimes. It shouldnât be a problem.â
âItâs a bit strange. This Banner family has two strong warriors for each generation. Bei Di and Bei Si are one pair, and Lao Li and Lao Lun form the other pair.â Shuang Yu Zhu wore a cheerful smile. âBei Di is the head of the house, and Bei Siâs the same. The latest successors of the Banners are Lao Li and Lao Lun. The Banner familyâs Combined Assault Technique is famous in the Fighting Union. Once that pair of brothers joins hands, their power is tremendous. I think their Combined Assault Technique has something special. In each generation, thereâre always two brothers with the same abilities in all aspects.â
Shi Yan shook his head and couldnât hold his smile. This world was small enough. He didnât expect that he would meet the members of Lao Li and Lao Lunâs family soon after he had visited the Divine Great Land.
When they split up in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist, these two brothers asked him to visit them so as they could host him well. The two brothers had appreciated him a lot. Without Shi Yanâs protection, they would have died inside the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist.
While Shi Yan was still thinking, a sturdy middle-aged man that looked similar to the Lao brothers appeared from behind the mountain. He walked in the void, taking each step toward Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu. He mocked, âOh, is it the City Master of the Ice Emperor City? How are you doing? Having troubles again?â
Seemed like it wasnât the first time the Ice Emperor City had encountered this kind of danger. Even the strong warriors of the White Emperor City knew it.
Bing Qing Tong didnât deny, and just gave him a forced smile, âThereâs a Third Sky of Spirit Realm warrior about to visit our city. I know I can hardly resist that sort of force. I only can bring my girls to avoid the trouble. Bei Si, are you here to check the mine?â
âYeah,â Bei Siâs eyes glared at Bing Qing Tongâs body. He couldnât help but frown. âA Third Sky of Sky Realm warrior. Haha, the trouble you have this time isnât small. I think you guys should go now. Such a high-level warrior chasing after you, if you donât go with all of your force, once he finds you, you should be dead or badly hurt.â
Apparently, Bei Si didnât intend to help them. He had no relationship with Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu, and his realm was just the Second Sky of Spirit Realm. He understood well that he could only lose his face fighting against a Third Sky of Spirit Realm warrior. Thus, he had to decide that way.
Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu had hoped that he would help them since they were from the same Fighting Union. But looking at Bei Siâs manners, the two women grimaced inside as they knew that they couldnât force the other. They should only count on themselves.
Right at that moment, Shi Yan suddenly stepped forward, smiled and clasped his fist to greet Bei Si. Bei Si was surprised, looking at him unknowingly. âKid, who are you?â
âPrecursor Bei Si, are Lao Li and Lao Lun doing well?â Shi Yan asked naturally.
âYou know my nephews?â Bei Si was astounded, his face strange. He then shifted his look to the young man.
âIâm Shi Yan. Have Lao Li and Lao Lun ever mentioned me?â
Bei Si was shaken. Divine light shot out from his eyes as he said excitedly. âAre you that Shi Yan? The one who saved my two nephews in the Dark Magnetic Noxious Mist?â
âHaha, besides the ones who were involved in it, who could know it clearly?â
âHaha, not bad. Youâre Shi Yan.â Bei Si laughed cheerily. âCome with me to the Banners. Iâm going to hold a welcome feast for you. My two nephews always talk about you. Theyâre afraid that you dislike our family and donât want to be the Bannersâ guest.â Bei Si was really warm.
Bing Qing Tong, Shuang Yu Zhu, and the others girls were dumbfounded.
Bei Si was arrogant. He didnât even put the City Master of the White Emperor City in his eyes, and had never been that warm and polite to anyone. This kid had just arrived here, but why did Bei Si get stirred up on listening to him?
âAh, Iâm going with the Ice Emperor Cityâs City Master. We have some problems to deal with. After that, Iâll visit the Banner family.â Shi Yan shook his head, giving the other a denying smile.
âTroubles?â Bei Si was bewildered for a while before he could react. âThat Third Sky of Spirit Realm warrior has something to do with you?â
âDonât get involved with the Ice Emperor Cityâs business. Letâs go to the Banners with me. Even if heâs a Third Sky of Spirit Realm warrior, when our brothers join hands, we arenât afraid of him. Let the Banners take care of it!â Bei Si was hesitant for a short while before he spoke up frankly without furrowing his brows.
Shi Yanâs eyes brightened.

Bei Si and his nephews were frank and straightforward. They belonged to the kind of people that would repay the favor even if they had to encounter the stronger enemy. This surprised Shi Yan.
Bing Qing Tong and Shuang Yu Zhu appeared dazed.
A Third Sky of Spirit Realm warrior wasnât a joke. Even if the Banner brothers joined hands, they couldnât gain the upper hand. For a young man whom he had never met before, this guy could use all his strength and resources. What noble position did that kid Shi Yan have? Was it worth the Banners to lend him a hand?
âPrecursor Bei Si, youâre too polite. I can handle it. You guys donât need to worry about me,â Shi Yan cracked a smile. After he had uttered, everybody was dumbstruck, looking at him as if they were observing a monster.
Unprecedented arroganceâŠ
