After Favorability Is Maxed

224 The Jiang Feng With a Group of Wives

It was true.

Liu Yuan was indeed a disciple of the Baishan Court.

As mentioned before, in the game Shangyang, players who did not choose to join a sect to obtain a complete cultivation system were all considered itinerant or independent cultivators. They were also automatically added with the name of Baishan Court, so they could travel to various sects to study and learn some of the cultivation methods and skills that the various sects had opened to Baishan Court.

This setting greatly enriched the choices of the players, but at the same time, it also increased the difficulty of these players’ cultivation.

After all, joining a sect was the right thing to do. The game did not encourage players to become independent cultivators.

A complete cultivation system, skill chain, sect reputation, and contribution points could be exchanged for special items in the sect’s store. There were also mounts and followers assigned by the sect. These were benefits that could only be obtained after joining a sect. If one did not join a sect, they could only look at it.

Hence, under normal circumstances, non-affiliates were players who did not pay much attention to PvP and PvE. For example, lifestyle players who wanted to develop sub-professions, scenery players who only wanted to join various sects, or conquering strategy players like Liu Yuan.

However, there was another type of player — Those who had found a fortuitous encounter outside of the sect’s inheritance.

This kind of player was a different story. As mentioned before, in a fortuitous encounter place like the Jiuyuan mountain range, one could find anything, including high-level cultivation techniques and items.

The players who could obtain such a fortuitous encounter were naturally not weak in combat.

As a result, the difference between the upper and lower limits of itinerant cultivators was extremely huge, and the polarization was very serious.

This was also in line with the characteristics of the Baishan Court.

This academy, which focused on research talents, had a very high upper limit. Of course, the people present did not know that there was a Saint like Xie Qian.

Their bottom line was just as the old man from Sky Treasure Pavilion had said. They were all useless, pedantic scholars with low cultivation levels, and they could not figure out anything.

At this moment, Ling Hua had first said that it was of great value and had to be handed over to the Baishan Court. Furthermore, there were indeed disciples of the Baishan Court present.

In other words, she believed that the huge puppet in the Martial Emperor’s Tomb, which was obviously not simple, should be handed over to the only disciple from the Baishan Court.

In an instant, everyone’s attention was focused on Liu Yuan, sizing up the young man who had not been noticed by the crowd.

Liu Yuan’s face stiffened as he looked up at Ling Hua.

The woman’s expression remained calm.

She did it on purpose!

Liu Yuan was certain that she had blocked his way just as he was thinking of using the treasures in the other parts of the Martial Emperor’s Tomb as bait to prevent these people from getting involved in the matter between him and Ling Hua.

Liu Yuan was now the center of attention, and it was impossible for him to leave.

Liu Yuan coughed twice, braced himself, and cupped his hands, “Greetings to all seniors and fellow Daoists. I am Liu Yuan, and indeed a disciple of the Baishan Court. However, I have no intention of competing with you all for anything. I feel that whoever can obtain it will be the best.”

The skinny old man from Sky Treasure Pavilion laughed strangely. “But didn’t you arrive a long time ago? I didn’t pay much attention just now, but there are traces of fighting everywhere in this tomb, and a large number of traces of destruction. You should be one of the first batch of people who came in, right? I’m afraid that he has already taken everything, so why is there a need to cover it up?”

Ling Hua had just added that he had arrived earlier than everyone else…

The meaning of his words was obvious.

Liu Yuan looked at Ling Hua again and felt that this was already revenge. He said with a serious expression, “I didn’t take a single needle or thread from the Martial Emperor’s Tomb. Please don’t accuse me without any basis.”

Te Secret Realm was not considered a part of the Martial Emperor’s Tomb…

Ling Hua’s eyes and Liu Yuan’s eyes, which were filled with accusation, met.

Ling Jie, who was standing behind the Senior Sister, noticed the frequent and subtle eye contact between the two people. She was keenly aware that something was not quite right, but she could not tell what was wrong.

If she had more experience, she would have understood that this was the aura of lust.

But now, Ling Jie, like most people, felt more and more familiar with Liu Yuan’s appearance. It was as if it had seen this person before.

The old man from the Sky Treasure Pavilion still pouted. He did not believe Liu Yuan’s clarification.

If they discovered something of research value in the Secret Realm, they really needed to hand it over to the Baishan Court for inspection. It would help them fill in the history of Shangyang and discover new secret realms from it. It would actually be of great benefit to each sect.

However, the various sects had sent people to the Baishan Court. Usually, there would be a meeting when the research was carried out, and the various sects would know about it with a tacit understanding.

At this moment, no one had seen the young man below before. How could they let him take the puppet?

Moreover, he was suspected to have entered the Martial Emperor’s Tomb in advance.

“Daoist Priest Ling Hua, how come I’ve never heard of such a young hero from the Baishan Court?” The leading blue-robed disciple of the Taiqing Pavilion was the first to raise his doubts.

Everyone present saw that Ling Hua had smiled faintly.

“Cen Shanzi, then you’re really ignorant. That guy is Jiang Feng, who has many wives.”

The blue-robed disciple was stunned at first, then his face twisted and turned red, “I’m ignorant? Who would have heard of a nameless person? not everyone is Bai Xiaosheng!”

He was in a hurry to refute and did not notice the strangeness in Ling Hua’s tone.

“Senior Brother, he seems to be that Jiang Feng…”

The people from the Taiqing Pavilion behind Cen Shanzi looked hesitant. They had already recognized the identity of the young man below, and one of the disciples said in a low voice.

“Jiang Feng? Which Jiang Feng?” Cen Shanzi subconsciously retorted.

Then, he remembered which Jiang Feng it was.

Recently, in the cultivation world, only one person by the name of Jiang Feng had entered the public’s vision.

The people present shifted their gazes to the people in the Sword Pavilion. Wang Rong’s mouth twitched and he said, “Who else can it be… Number 2 on the Singing Sword Ranking, ‘Sun Chasing Green Shadow’, Jiang Feng.”

“Oh, it’s him! Didn’t he say that he disappeared after the Singing Sword contest? The City of Ten Thousand Swords has been searching for him for more than a month, but they haven’t heard anything from him. Why has he come here?”

“White Dragon River… Was he brought here by the tide? The tide of the White Dragon River is so dangerous, but he’s still safe and sound. He’s indeed capable.”

“It’s rumored that he has an unusual relationship with the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords, the Green Lotus Swordsman, and the Young Mistress of the Xuanyin family. But not only that, but he also has two wives in the Jiang Kingdom, and the City Lord of the City of Ten Thousand Swords has secretly adopted him as her foster son. It’s also said that the Xuanyin family’s Head went to visit the City Lord to discuss his marriage, as well as the Green Lotus Swordsman…”

“I know that. Green Lotus Swordsman came out of closed-door cultivation earlier for him and went to the North Mansion to challenge the demonic Holy Maiden.”

“I didn’t expect him to be a disciple of the Baishan Court…”

The crowd was in a heated discussion.

Liu Yuan swallowed his saliva and felt like he was about to faint. He did not dare to look at Ling Hua. He cursed in his heart, how did the news spread so quickly and in such detail?

He was still thinking about how to explain it, but it was already impossible to explain it clearly!
