Chapter 557: Chapter 548: It’s Best for Mo Xiaoyao to Come! (4th Update)

Shi Jinsuai, upon mentioning these four treasures to Shi Feng, noticed that Shi Feng’s gaze had begun to fixate on the table. Seeing Shi Feng thus, Shi Jinsuai’s golden hand fan flicked open with a "whoosh." He fanned himself and chuckled at Shi Feng, "Brother Shi, what do you think of these items? Are you satisfied?"

Hearing Shi Jinsuai’s words, Shi Feng looked up slightly and gazed at the smiling Shi Jinsuai. He nodded subtly and responded calmly, "Not bad."

"Ha-ha!" Watching Shi Feng’s composed demeanor and hearing his calm voice, Shi Jinsuai laughed out loud, "To say they’re ’not bad’ is an understatement! These four items, even if my Ten Thousand Treasures Merchant Building set the price at a hundred billion Primordial Stones, it wouldn’t be too much. But since Brother Shi needs them, and you said you had just over thirty billion Primordial Stones left, I will cover the remaining cost."

"Then I thank you!" Shi Feng expressed his gratitude toward Shi Jinsuai, who was not wrong—collectively, these items could indeed fetch a price of a hundred billion Primordial Stones. These treasures, priceless and rare, might even fetch a higher price if auctioned.

When Shi Feng thanked him, Shi Jinsuai shook his head and said, "There’s no need for thanks between brothers, especially when you’ve saved my life on numerous occasions. It would feel rather strange."

"Regardless, I’ve taken note of this matter. If you ever need anything in the future, just crush this Jade Scroll. No matter where you are, I will surely come to you at the first opportunity." As he spoke, Shi Feng handed Shi Jinsuai a Jade Scroll bearing his own Soul Mark.

"Very well, if I need Brother Shi’s help in the future, I will not hesitate to seek you." Shi Jinsuai smiled as he took the Jade Scroll from Shi Feng’s hand.

After storing the Jade Scroll in his Storage Ring, Shi Jinsuai continued, "In five days’ time, the martial arts competition will take place, and there are so many Martial Artists coming to Tianlan Imperial City that if we were to take turns, who knows when it would end. The Emperor of Tianlan Empire, Lann Yuan, has decreed the construction of a hundred arenas. The battles will be conducted simultaneously in an elimination format. Only the final victor shall have the honor of becoming the Prince Consort to Princess Linglong, the greatest beauty of Tianlan Empire. Today is the day for registering for the competition, and I don’t think you have much time left. I’ll have someone register on your behalf shortly."

After listening to Shi Jinsuai, Shi Feng nodded and said, "Alright, I appreciate it." He then added, "Next, I will need a bucket of medicinal liquid. I have listed the ingredients in this Jade Scroll. These herbs should be easy for you to find."

With that said, Shi Feng handed over another Jade Scroll, inscribed with his Soul Thought, to Shi Jinsuai.

Shi Jinsuai took the Jade Scroll, pressed it to his forehead to read Shi Feng’s thoughts, and after finishing, he nodded and said, "There’s no problem. I can get this done for you very soon."

"Good!" Shi Feng nodded. The herbs he had listed in the Jade Scroll for Shi Jinsuai were lower-grade materials meant to strengthen the physical body. Shi Feng intended to use these herbs as auxiliary ingredients, with the primary ingredient being the Eighth Grade Saint Blood Flesh Grass.

Once he could fully absorb the medicinal properties of the Blood Flesh Grass, Shi Feng was confident that he could enhance his physical body’s strength from the level of a Four-star Martial Sovereign to the Power of Martial Sect!

"Someone!" Shortly afterward, Shi Jinsuai called out softly. Then, the same fairly beautiful maid as before opened the door of the elegant private room and stepped inside.

With graceful steps, she walked to Shi Jinsuai’s side, bowed slightly, and softly said, "Yes, my lord!"

Subsequently, Shi Jinsuai passed the Jade Scroll, which was engraved with the medicinal ingredients Shi Feng needed, to the maid and said, "Have someone prepare a tub of medicinal bath based on the ingredients listed on this Jade Scroll and bring it to this side room."

"Yes!" the maid replied softly once again, taking the Jade Scroll from Shi Jinsuai’s hand. Then she stepped back, slowly pushing the door to leave the side room, and closed it again.

At this time, Shi Feng had already transferred all his Primordial Stones into a storage ring and handed it to Shi Jinsuai, saying, "This is over 30 million Yuan Stones."

"Hmm!" Shi Jinsuai nodded, took the storage ring from Shi Feng with a light laugh, without even bothering to count the stones. He airily stowed the storage ring given by Shi Feng into his own.

Then, revealing a curious expression, Shi Jinsuai smiled at Shi Feng and asked, "Brother Shi, how confident are you about the upcoming martial arts competition for marriage?"

Upon hearing Shi Jinsuai’s question, without even thinking, Shi Feng answered straightaway, "One hundred percent!"

"This..." Stunned by Shi Feng’s swift response, Shi Jinsuai hesitated for a moment before saying, "Isn’t that a bit too confident? Let’s not even mention that Zi Xiao has already reached the Martial Saint Realm - he would definitely be a formidable opponent if you encounter him. Besides, there’s a possibility that geniuses and powerhouses from all over will come, and it’s highly likely that someone stronger than Zi Xiao will appear. After all, the greatest beauty of the Eastern Domain is a huge attraction! Rumor even has it that Emperor Xiaoyao himself might make an appearance!"

"If Mo Xiaoyao can come, then my odds are even greater," Shi Feng said. If Mo Xiaoyao did come, then Shi Feng wouldn’t have to compete at all – he could just have that young rascal take down one opponent after another.

Hearing Shi Feng’s reply, Shi Jinsuai showed a bemused look and asked, "Hmm? What do you mean by that?" Then it struck him, and he said, "Could it be that Brother Shi knows Emperor Xiaoyao, and he will even fight in the tournament on your behalf? That’s...impossible..."

Shi Feng nodded at Shi Jinsuai, confirming, "I do indeed know Mo Xiaoyao."

Suddenly, Shi Jinsuai thought of something and said:

"I remember Brother Shi’s cultivation technique has the Yin Cold Attribute, like the former Emperor Nine Nether specialized in cultivating the Martial Arts, Power of Physical Body, and Soul, all at once. Could it be that Brother Shi’s cultivation technique is the Netherworld Skill created by Emperor Nine Nether himself, and you are the inheritor of the Nine Nether Lineage? And you and Emperor Xiaoyao... have a master-disciple relationship!"

By the end of his realization, Shi Jinsuai exclaimed in amazement. Obtaining the legacy of the once greatest warrior, Emperor Nine Nether, and being able to cultivate the Supreme Technique, Nine Nether Technique, was something many martial artists aspired to. Becoming a disciple of the world-renowned Emperor Xiaoyao!

Indeed, Shi Jinsuai guessed correctly that there was a master-disciple relationship between Shi Feng and Mo Xiaoyao. However, where Shi Jinsuai went wrong was that Shi Feng was not Emperor Xiaoyao’s disciple, but the mentor who had taught him Martial Arts!

The very thought that Shi Feng was a disciple of Emperor Xiaoyao had already elicited an exclamation from Shi Jinsuai; one could only imagine the kind of splendid expression he would have if he knew that Shi Feng was the master of Emperor Xiaoyao!

(Alright, I’ve finally finished coding this Chapter as a special update for my friend ＜☆"Sakura Xipa, Di Ling Luan"☆＞! Time to sleep with vigor! Goodnight, friends! ^^)
