Invincible Over the World
Chapter 156 - 156 156 Zhao Shu and Yu Ming Arrive

156: Chapter 156: Zhao Shu and Yu Ming Arrive 156: Chapter 156: Zhao Shu and Yu Ming Arrive Having returned from Guo Mansion, Huang Xiaolong continued to activate the God Capturing Ring and entered the Ancient Battlefield for cultivation.

Now, Huang Xiaolong mainly focused on cultivating the Asura Technique, and seldom practiced swordsmanship, Asura Ghost Claw, Exquisite Golden Body, Imprisoning God Palm, and other Combat Skills.

For Huang Xiaolong, the most important thing was to achieve a breakthrough in his Fighting Energy to the Innate level.

All these Combat Skills were just supplementary!

Moreover, practicing Combat Skills like the Asura Sword Technique for another year wouldn’t bring much progress.

Once Huang Xiaolong’s Fighting Energy broke through to the Innate level, his strength would transform drastically.

In addition to cultivating the Asura Technique, Huang Xiaolong spent two hours every day practicing battles with Fei Hou and Marshal Hao Tian.

Through practicing against Fei Hou and Marshal Hao Tian, both Innate Experts, Huang Xiaolong made further improvements in his application of Combat Skills.

Nine days passed.

One day, Fei Hou and Marshal Hao Tian approached with faces full of joy and reported to Huang Xiaolong in the courtyard, “Sect Leader, the master says he and Zhao Shu, the Left Envoy, will arrive in one hour!”

“Oh, in one hour!” Huang Xiaolong exclaimed joyfully upon hearing this and took a deep breath, “Let’s go to the Royal City gates!”

Although Huang Xiaolong was the Asura Sect Master, Zhao Shu was a Holy Domain Expert.

It was only natural for Huang Xiaolong to go to the Royal City gates to welcome Zhao Shu.

“Yes, Sect Leader!” Fei Hou and Hao Tian respectfully complied, and hearing that Huang Xiaolong would go out to the Royal City gates to welcome Zhao Shu did not surprise them.

Even someone like Emperor Duanren would show courtesy to a Holy Domain Expert, and Zhao Shu was not an ordinary Early Stage Holy Domain Expert.

Thus, Huang Xiaolong led Fei Hou and Marshal Hao Tian out of Heavenly Mystical Mansion and waited three miles outside the gates of Luotong Royal City for Yu Ming and Zhao Shu to arrive.

The thought of meeting a Holy Domain Expert soon excited Fei Hou and Hao Tian tremendously; their faces were fraught with nervousness.

Although both were Innate Experts with high status within a kingdom, especially Marshal Hao Tian, they were nothing in front of a Holy Domain Expert.

Previously, they would not even have qualified to meet such an expert face-to-face.

Huang Xiaolong and his companions had just arrived when suddenly, two figures appeared on a distant mountain path.

Seeing these two figures, Huang Xiaolong and his companions’ eyes brightened.

One of them was indeed Yu Ming!

Yu Ming followed behind a robust middle-aged man in his fifties, both riding creatures similar to rhinos, but without long tails and their bodies shimmering with a glow like flames.

Despite the distance, Huang Xiaolong and his companions could still feel the terrifying aura emanating from the middle-aged man.

Huang Xiaolong knew that this middle-aged man was Left Envoy Zhao Shu of the Asura Sect!

Although Zhao Shu and Yu Ming’s mounts seemed to move slowly, they advanced rapidly, arriving within a hundred meters of Huang Xiaolong and the others in just a few breaths.

Up close, Huang Xiaolong noticed that Zhao Shu had large, stern eyes resembling those of an iron eagle.

Huang Xiaolong observed Zhao Shu, and Zhao Shu similarly observed him.

From Yu Ming’s briefing and description, he knew that the tall youth who appeared to be around seventeen years old must be the late Old Sect Master’s direct disciple and holder of the Asura Ring, Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong and the others stepped forward.

Yu Ming and Zhao Shu dismounted from their mounts.

“Asura Sect elder Yu Ming pays respects to the Sect Leader!” Coming before Huang Xiaolong, Yu Ming performed a respectful kowtow and said reverently.

And Zhao Shu also stepped forward, bowing slightly, and respectfully said, “Left Envoy Zhao Shu of the Asura Sect greets the Sect Leader!”

In the Asura Sect, all Holy Domain Experts greeting the Sect Leader only needed to bow slightly.

“Left Envoy Zhao Shu, Elder Yu Ming, please rise!” Huang Xiaolong hurried forward, urging them to dispense with the formalities.

At this moment, Fei Hou and Hao Tian also came forward and bowed deeply to Zhao Shu, saying with utmost respect, “Disciples of the Asura Sect, Fei Hou and Hao Tian, greet Left Envoy Zhao Shu!”

Zhao Shu nodded and let the two show their deference.

Only then did Fei Hou and Hao Tian respectfully address Yu Ming as “Master!”

Yu Ming nodded.

The group did not say much more and turned to return to Heavenly Mystical Mansion.

Along the way, Zhao Shu said to Yu Ming, “The two disciples you’ve taken on are not bad.” He could see that both Fei Hou and Hao Tian were much stronger than their peers in various aspects.

Yu Ming quickly responded respectfully, “Zhao Shu is too kind with his praise!”

In fact, Yu Ming had been somewhat surprised himself by the transformation in his disciples, Fei Hou and Hao Tian.

Hearing Zhao Shu’s praise, Fei Hou and Hao Tian felt earnestly fearful and cautious.

At that moment, Hao Tian respectfully said, “Left Envoy, our achievements today are all thanks to the Sect Leader’s cultivation.”

“Oh?” both Zhao Shu and Yu Ming were somewhat surprised.

Huang Xiaolong laughed and said, “I merely imparted a cultivation technique to them.

Their achievements today are the result of their own hard work.”

Although Huang Xiaolong said this, he had indirectly acknowledged what Hao Tian had said.

Zhao Shu and Yu Ming both became curious about the cultivation technique Huang Xiaolong had imparted to Fei Hou and Hao Tian.

It wasn’t long before Huang Xiaolong and his group returned to Heavenly Mystical Mansion.

Upon returning to the mansion and arriving at the hall, they encountered his parents, Huang Peng and Su Yan.

Huang Xiaolong formally introduced the identities of Zhao Shu and Yu Ming to Huang Peng and Su Yan.

Especially Zhao Shu.

Although Yu Ming had visited Heavenly Mystical Mansion before, Huang Peng and others had not met Yu Ming.

Hearing Huang Xiaolong introduce Yu Ming as Fei Hou and Hao Tian’s Master, both Huang Peng and Su Yan were greatly astonished.

Although Huang Xiaolong did not clarify Zhao Shu’s true identity when introducing him, seeing how his son introduced Zhao Shu with even more caution than he had Yu Ming, they were even more astonished.

They quickly addressed them: “Elder Zhao Shu, Elder Yu Ming!”

Since Huang Peng and Su Yan were Huang Xiaolong’s parents, neither Zhao Shu nor Yu Ming dared to be negligent and returned the greeting.

Knowing their son had matters to discuss, Huang Peng and Su Yan left the hall to give them privacy.

Once Huang Peng and Su Yan had left the hall, Huang Xiaolong inquired to Yu Ming about the events of the past few years; Yu Ming should have returned six years ago had there not been any mishaps.

Yu Ming promptly reported the events of the recent years to Huang Xiaolong.

It turned out that when he had left the Snow Continent to rush back to Star Cloud Continent, he encountered a terrifying vortex in a place called the Death Channel Sea and was swept into an unknown space within, trapped there for six years!

Six years later, Yu Ming managed to escape when a spatial rift appeared in that space.

Huang Xiaolong was stunned.

Yu Ming was late by six years due to such an incident?

Soon after, Huang Xiaolong gave a wry smile, unsure whether to call Yu Ming lucky or unlucky.

At first, he had thought Chen Tianqi knew about his affairs and that Yu Ming might have been imprisoned by Chen Tianqi.

Fei Hou and Hao Tian were also stunned to hear that their Master had encountered such an incident.

At that moment, Huang Xiaolong asked Zhao Shu and Yu Ming, “Left Envoy Zhao Shu, Elder Yu Ming, I wonder if you have heard of an exotic treasure called the God Capturing Ring on the Treasure List?”

“The God Capturing Ring!” Both Zhao Shu and Yu Ming were visibly shaken.
