Chapter 330: Chapter 98 One Hundred

Qi Yu moved mechanically with her three-foot-long sword, one strike after another, trying to vent all her dissatisfaction.

Lu Yanxiu entered Qi Yu’s training arena in Baiyan City, looking excited. She hurriedly stepped in, but suddenly slowed her pace when she crossed into the inner courtyard.

Looking at Qi Yu’s overwhelming emotions, the excitement on Lu Yanxiu’s face faded away.

"Sister Qi, what’s wrong?" Lu Yanxiu asked with a puzzled heart, gradually approaching.

"I can’t let my junior sister notice anything.

Seeing Lu Yanxiu, a hint of life finally appeared in Qi Yu’s numb eyes. She collected herself from her sorrow and smiled, "Yan Xiu, is there something important?"

Hearing the question, Lu Yanxiu immediately suppressed her confusion and said excitedly, "Sister, sister, do you know about that Lin Yuan?"

"What about him?"

Qi Yu’s heart tightened.

Could it be that Vice President Ning had found some clues about Lin Yuan again?

"This Senior Brother Lin has truly surprised everyone. Just recently, he actually defeated Xu Jinyu and stabilized Baiyan City!" Lu Yanxiu patted her chest, looking as if she were still in disbelief: "Originally, I thought Senior Brother Lin would take years to gradually make a name for himself, but who would have thought he silently reached such a frightening level! He defeated Xu Jinyu without even using a spiritual artifact!"

"Sister, how do you think he trains?"

"Lin Yuan defeated Xu Jinyu?"

Qi Yu felt relieved, yet stunned again: "Senior Brother Lin’s power has increased again?"

During the time he killed Ning Yi, Lin Yuan took quite some time. But now, Lin Yuan easily defeated Xu Jinyu, even crushing him effortlessly.

"It’s truly Senior Brother Lin. This is how it should be."

At this thought, Qi Yu felt at ease.

"Ah, Sister, it seems you’re not surprised by this result?" Lu Yanxiu pondered, noticing Qi Yu seemed quite calm.

"Surprised?"

A faint smile appeared on Qi Yu’s pale face as she pinched Lu Yanxiu’s face gently, whispering, "If you knew the ones killed, Xiang Liangji and Yang Gaofeng, were all Lin Yuan’s achievements, you wouldn’t be surprised either."

"What?"

Lu Yanxiu widened her eyes suddenly, her mouth agape.

After a brief exchange, Lu Yanxiu bid farewell to Qi Yu.

"A genius like Senior Brother Lin, in merely a few months of training, might have already traversed a journey others could never complete in a lifetime," a rare sparkle appeared in Qi Yu’s heart.

This pace of progress filled her with immeasurable admiration.

"Senior Brother Lin, I hope you continue on your own path until no one can ever threaten you again!"

Qi Yu secretly prayed, but her mood soon fell into despondency again.

She recalled their joyous talk when returning to Changle Village, sharing their innermost desires. Lin Yuan could rely on his own strength and talent, advancing step by step.

But as for her, she could only indulge under Cai Yufeng.

"Is there still a future ahead?" Qi Yu felt lost in thought.

However, the sudden sound of footsteps reverberated, making her shiver.

The Fire Crow Sect Envoy entered again, presenting today’s gift. The leading person asked quietly, "Miss Qi Yu, how have you considered the matter posed by Lord Cai?"

Qi Yu’s face turned deathly pale, and she took a deep breath.

"The inevitable always comes; can one truly escape?" Qi Yu began to weep.

She felt like a fish caught in a net, as the surrounding constraints tightened more and more; the more she struggled, the tighter it pulled, to the point where even breathing became difficult.

After a long silence, Qi Yu softly replied, "I grant my answer to Lord Cai’s request."

The leader heard this, glanced at the woman, and sneered, "In the end, you still fall into the lord’s grip. Such struggles, why bother?"

*********************

Before long, the leading servant pried open Cai Yufeng’s room door.

After whispering a few words at Cai Yufeng’s ear, a smile gradually spread across Cai Yufeng’s face.

"Hahaha, good!"

Cai Yufeng laughed out loud.

Even a proud peacock like Qi Yu must bow her head obediently in front of him.

Watching her fall into the quagmire step by step, continually doubting herself, no matter how she struggled, she ultimately couldn’t escape his grip. The exquisite pleasure in it left him captivated.

"It’s time to enjoy it now."

Qi Yu’s beauty was something that heated his desires, and he immediately instructed, "Since she agreed, let her come over tonight!"

The servant nodded and was about to make the arrangements.

"Cai Yufeng, the orders from Jin’s True Heirs require you to personally go to the front line to investigate the whereabouts of the Sage Heir of the Demon Gate. Information must be obtained within half a month." The person handed a letter of command and then withdrew.

Cai Yufeng squinted his eyes, the springtime expression disappearing: "Is the True Heirs planning to take action against Ji Bing?"

After pondering for a moment, Cai Yufeng immediately instructed the servant, "As for Qi Yu, we’ll talk after I return in half a month."

*******************

Meanwhile, Lin Yuan returned to his own courtyard.

Defeating Xu Jinyu didn’t mean much to him, it was merely a matter of routine.

What he really wanted now was to find someone at the Lingyuan level to duel with.

However, there was no good opportunity at the moment.

"Then let’s continue training," Lin Yuan’s gaze sank slightly, "I wonder how the incense holder managed to sneak into the heart of Changle Village?"

He shook his head, casting aside those distracting thoughts.

Lin Yuan continued to immerse himself in training.

Rumble!

A long-awaited thunderous rain finally fell, pouring down in torrents.

Time passed day by day.

Until seven days later.

Lin Yuan sat in meditation, gradually calming the tumultuous energy within his body.

"A hundred apertures now, a few days faster than expected."

Looking at the apertures in his spirit, each flickering like stars, Lin Yuan felt utterly grounded.

"At the Lingyuan level, the total outburst of power probably lies around four hundred apertures." At this moment, Lin Yuan began to comprehend the difference between the Qiao Aperture stage and the Lingyuan stage.

If the accumulation of one aperture is considered one, then the basic power of a hundred apertures is one hundred. Each aperture in his body was more than twice that of an average person.

"Perhaps in the early stage of Lingyuan, if I release all my strength, I might be able to fight and win." Upon careful assessment, a glint of determination flashed in Lin Yuan’s eyes.

"Then it’s only a matter of waiting for the incense holder to come."

"I wonder if Xi Yuanrong knows about the Qu Xiang Sect. If she does and it conflicts with her backing forces, she might be of use."

Lin Yuan entertained countless thoughts, pondering this possibility.

Using Xi Yuanrong to kill the incense holder might be a way to rid himself of the Qu Xiang Sect.

"But Xi Yuanrong is such an enigmatic woman." Lin Yuan frowned.

Upon his recent victory, Lin Yuan imagined he might challenge Li Chuison in the future.

Lin Yuan trained for seven days.

Meanwhile, Qi Yu was preparing something akin to a bridal gift, astonishing Lu Yanxiu. Lu Yanxiu was anxious inside, rebuking Qi Yu as to why.

Qi Yu remained silent.

Lu Yanxiu tried to comfort her. Qi Yu just shook her head and said nothing.

On the other side, Lin Yuan was still training.
