“Those who come to my door without telling me are thieves. Since the thieves have come, as the general of the Demon Suppression Division, how can I let you leave?” Shen Ping said with interest, the aura on his body was instantly released. A terrifying bloodline pressure pressed down like the sky, immediately making it difficult for the group of fourth and fifth rank bloodline practitioners to move.
The leader of the evil sect’s protectors had shock in his eyes. “Y-You’re in the Star Realm?!” His words were filled with disbelief.
It had to be known that Shen Ping was only 16 years old, but he had already reached the Star Rank at this age. Even in the capital, he was a rare genius. After all, there were many fifth-stage geniuses, but it was very difficult to cross the threshold of the Star Rank.
As the bodies of the bloodline practitioners exploded, only three fifth grade bloodline cultivators were left on the battlefield.
“Tell me, who sent you?” Shen Ping asked again. The three Rank-5s looked at each other, and then a strange demonic fire burned in their bodies. His eyes narrowed. “Cult members! Interesting.” Then, he waved it.
The star power immediately swept away all traces in the courtyard and returned to the bedroom. Lian Nishang asked worriedly, “Brother Shen, are you alright?”
“They’re just some petty thieves.” Shen Ping smiled. He sat on the edge of the bed and hugged the girl’s body. “As for you, don’t be frightened.”
Feeling the warmth of his broad palm, Lian Nishang blushed and said, “Brother Shen, I’m not that delicate, although, although…”
“Although?” He teased, his palm slowly extending from her shoulder to the place where the meridians converge, which was where the Yin Qi acupoints were. “Are you still not used to this place?”
Lian Nishang nodded shyly.
Shen Ping did not continue. He also knew that the girl had just become a woman last night. Even a fifth-rank bloodline practitioner would need time to recover from that kind of pain. He took out a bloodline bead refined from a Frigid Snow Mushroom and handed it over. “Take it and cultivate. Your recovery speed will be faster.”
“Okay.” Lian Nishangreplied.
In the next two months, the two of them, who had developed the most intimate relationship, were as close as glue. Although the girl was not as open-minded as Ling Yu’er, just one or two movements, coupled with that mesmerizing door, still made Shen Ping wish he could stop attending court from now on.
In the meantime, he secretly investigated the cult’s attack last time, but he didn’t gain much. Even if he targeted Generals Hong, Chen and Yu, he didn’t make much progress.
In the courtyard, Ling Yu’er tried her best to improve and even showed everything she had to Shen Ping. During this period of time, the latter had not looked for her. This made Ling Yu’er panic. She knew her advantages. If Shen Ping got tired of her one day, she would never be able to improve again.
Four hours later, Ling Yu’er, who was in her prime, was sweating profusely as she lay there weakly. If she had not broken through to Rank 4, she would not have been able to withstand such intense guidance.
“Brother Shen, don’t forget Yu’er when you have Nishang.” She said bitterly. As an experienced person, Ling Yu’er could naturally tell that Lian Nishang had been subdued by Shen Ping recently. She could tell from Lian Nishang’s walking posture and her smiling face.
Shen Ping smiled and said, “Don’t worry, you’re my first girl. How could I forget you? I wanted you to focus on cultivation. Have you refined the blood bead I gave you the last time I came back?”
Only then did Ling Yu’er heave a sigh of relief. “Half of it has been refined. The Wood-type bloodline energy contained in the Blood Bead is extremely huge. I estimate that it will take another half a year to completely absorb it. But by then, Yu’er is confident that she can break through to late-Fourth Rank.”
This speed was very fast.
Shen Ping was not surprised at all. What was refined in the blood bead was a high-grade natural treasure, and it was very pure. If it were anyone else with a bloodline, they would advance very quickly.
“In another half a month, I’m preparing to go to Jizhou City. Are you going with me, or are you staying in Laiyang Prefecture?”
The night before last, through the water-type bloodline he had obtained from Lian Nishang, he had opened thirty acupoints and reached the late Star Rank. The thunder, wood, and water were all at the late Star Rank, allowing his entire bloodline and star power to reach the peak of the Star Rank.
However, with his current understanding of this world’s system, it was still insufficient to break through to the Star Palace Realm. Therefore, he had to read books in the continent’s capital and extend the Star Lifeline Technique to find a way to break through to the Star Palace Realm.
After all, his cultivation path was formed by combining his own body.
Apart from that, every prefecture capital of the Xia Dynasty was the most prosperous and lively place in this world. Laiyang Prefecture was at most a slightly larger place.
All kinds of prodigies were gathered in the state capital. Especially now that the chaotic world had appeared, the state capital would be the focus of the various factions. Shen Ping, who was looking for great opportunities and some treasures, naturally had to join in the fun.
Ling Yu’er replied without hesitation, “Yu’er will be with Brother Shen.”
Shen Ping was very satisfied with her attitude and hugged her in his arms. “What about your parents? Their business can’t do without your care.”
With him holding the fort, Ling Yu’er’s family business could be said to be growing bigger and bigger. Once they left for the state capital, it would be difficult for their business to continue in Laiyang Prefecture. At the very least, it would be difficult for them to purchase those demonic materials at a low price.
“I’ll talk my parents out of it. Brother Shen, don’t worry. My parents will definitely agree.”
