Chapter 540: Chapter 68: Consuming the Yin Yang Fish, Life Soul Breakthrough! The Legend of Liu Tianning! (8K)

"What? Liu Tianning?!" Xiao Baoyu was immediately startled.

For someone like him who always flaunts his background, the backgrounds of others naturally mattered a great deal.

And among those whom his father, Marquis Wucheng, had warned ’never to offend’ was indeed Liu Tianning.

"Princely Heir, could it be Zhao Xing?" Xiao Baoyu’s attitude took a complete one hundred and eighty-degree turn.

"Merely I, Zhao Xing, do not deserve such an honorific title from your highness."

"Oh, you do, you do!"

"Princely Heir, it is I, Xiao Baoyu, who was blind, never expecting to meet you here."

Xiao Baoyu, a talent himself, flew over without any guard up, trembling all the while.

"Hmph." Long Xiao snorted. He wasn’t resentful of the rich; he had great respect for princely heirs like Xia Jing and Ji Ziyun, as they diligently and painstakingly practiced their skills, striving earnestly for advancement.

The esteemed Xia Jing Princely Heir could even master the Gluttonous Eating Skill! How much torment and hardship did he endure in the process? Even without miraculous encounters of heaven, he had reached the fourth level of skill!

Yet this Xiao Baoyu, possessing no real skill though already at the seventh rank, couldn’t even fly steadily.

Having no talents of his own, relying purely on his father’s background, he was so flamboyant before and now so obsequiously flattering; he simply disgusted Long Xiao.

"Princely Heir, my father and the Liu Family of Taihe County also have some connections. I am deeply sorry for any offense caused earlier; please allow me to come in person and apologize." Xiao Baoyu shamelessly bowed.

"Heir Xiao, there is no need for formalities." Zhao Xing wouldn’t hold a grudge against him but also had no intention of associating with him. "We still have a journey to pursue, please make way, Heir Xiao."

"Yes, yes." Xiao Baoyu nodded and bowed, "Of course, of course."

He waved towards the Silver Shuttle Flying Boat behind him: "Quick, make way!"

As the Silver Shuttle Flying Boat indeed made way, Zhao Xing drove the flying boat away at high speed.

As Zhao Xing left, Xiao Baoyu couldn’t help but sweat profusely: "Damn it, to actually encounter such a freakish disciple... thank goodness, thank goodness."

His father, Marquis Wucheng, was a fourth rank.

Yet, even so, when mentioning Liu Tianning, he still said ’never ever offend him.’

At that time, Xiao Baoyu asked, "Dad, what if I accidentally, and seriously offend him to death?"

Xiao Baoyu remembered his father’s reply: "Baoyu, if you really offended him to death, your father can only make another."

Heavens have mercy!

Xiao Baoyu had always been cherished by his father, treated like a treasure in his mouth, afraid it might dissolve, held carefully in his palms, fearful it might fall.

Yet he received such a response that time, it literally made Xiao Baoyu’s jaw drop!

Xiao Baoyu asked naively at that moment, "Dad, why is that?"

Marquis Wucheng was silent for a long while before he replied with visible distress, "Because dad can’t defeat him, even if you had another dad, put together, they still wouldn’t be able to defeat an enraged Liu Tianning."

A fourth rank dad, stating he couldn’t defeat a fifth rank Liu Tianning, Xiao Baoyu couldn’t grasp the logic.

But, Xiao Baoyu deeply remembered the name Liu Tianning.

Of course, his dad also said, "Liu Tianning is an upright person, not a bad man. Ordinary folks hardly offend him to death because he doesn’t care about money and profits. There are only two things... never mind, knowing too much won’t benefit you."

"You just need to remember, when encountering someone close to Liu Tianning, treat them with respect, or just avoid them if necessary, but absolutely do not offend them!"

"If you accidentally do offend, quickly apologize! As long as you haven’t offended to death, there’s still a chance for redemption, because among the noble families, he still reasons fairly."

Thus, as soon as Xiao Baoyu arrived in Ten Suns Cave Heaven, he first inquired about everyone close to Liu Tianning.

The name Zhao Xing was thus recorded by Xiao Baoyu.

Since Liu Tianning was a member of the Military Realm Inspection Department, he rarely involved himself in ordinary affairs and didn’t need to establish military exploits.

Yet he visited the Sacrificial Soul Pass in person for the sake of this disciple, Zhao Xing.

Hence, when Xiao Baoyu just heard the words ’my master, Liu Tianning,’ he was immediately terrified.

He feared his dad might make another, so he quickly conceded and apologized.

"Princely Heir, Princely Heir? We should continue patrolling." an elder said.

"No more patrols! No more!" Xiao Baoyu patted his chest, "That Mr. Xing only gives me a benefit as small as a fingernail, yet made this young master face such huge risks! Do you know my dad almost had to make another son!"

"Ah?" The elder was trying to understand his young master’s logic, only to hear him continue.

"Let’s just find an iceberg nearby to stop at, play valley cards for two hours, then return to report."

"Princely Heir, you just said you wanted to achieve something significant..."

"Don’t mention that! It’s decided now!" Xiao Baoyu huffed as he boarded the ship.

The elder sighed resignedly and proceeded as per his wishes.

...

"Access Forbidden! This area has been sealed by the Joint Exploration Team!"

Less than 15 minutes later, Zhao Xing encountered another Blood Shadow Flying Boat blocking his path.

"I am also an Advanced Investigator, the Southwest Line, as agreed upon by the Seven Alliances, was supposed to be occupied by King Lingshuang’s direct grandson, Pei Yuanchang; why go back on your word?!"

"It’s only because you were on the Sea Wave Flying Boat that I did not attack you!" the bearded military officer shouted back, "As for the agreement, how should I know? You better ask Pei Yuanchang yourself!"

Having no choice, Zhao Xing had to cite another identity: "You don’t recognize Pei Yuanchang, do you recognize Liu Tianning?"

"Liu Tianning’s Exploration Team?" the bearded military officer eyed Zhao Xing skeptically, "May I ask what is your relationship with Mr. Liu... "

"My master is none other than Liu Tianning, and I am the Vice Team Leader Zhao Xing! Can I pass this road, or can I not?"

The bearded military officer’s expression changed; he immediately pulled out an Earth Mirror.
