I Cultivate Passively

Chapter 163: Son-In-Law at the Door?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

‘It seems that it’s not very safe in Heavenly Star City either…’

Zhou Feng restrained his aura and prepared to enter the inner city from another direction.

The injuries caused by his full strength had also completely recovered.

It had to be said that having the passive Tenacious Heart allowed him to use all kinds of secret techniques without any scruples.

These secret arts that had huge side effects might be very harmful to others, and even their bodies may be unable to withstand the backlash after a few uses.

However, Zhou Feng could use them without any restrictions. After using them, he only needed to leave the battle state for a dozen seconds.

His injuries would be able to recover almost immediately. At most, it would only consume some of his Blood Qi and Spiritual Qi.

He might need to find more self-harming secret arts based on this advantage.

Thinking about it, whenever he was about to fight, he could directly use eight or ten self-harming secret arts.

His opponent would never think that someone would be so crazy.

He would first cripple himself without any regard for his life. If he was caught off guard, he would take the initiative.

Zhou Feng had this idea because Heavenly Star City did not seem as safe as he thought.

It was as if someone had surrounded him on the street.

It was as if fighting in the city was allowed as long as the city guards did not capture him.

In fact, Heavenly Star City did have such an unspoken rule.

You could fight in the city, but you had to be quick and not damage any buildings.

Once the surrounding buildings were damaged, the city guards would definitely find trouble with you.

Moreover, if the city guards caught you on the spot, then no one would have any face to speak of.

Even the few ancient clans in Heavenly Star City could not interfere.

All of this stemmed from the City Lord’s prestige.

But even so, very few people dared to make a move in the city directly.

The risk was too great and not worth it. Once caught, at the very least, both sides would suffer heavy losses.

…

“What did he do? And he even escaped? He’s really bold!”

Li Manya had just received news about Zhou Feng.

Obviously, even Li Manya was astounded that Zhou Feng dared to make a move in the city.

He really had just entered Heavenly Star City from the outside. He was really foolish and bold.

“Other than these, can you find out anything else?”

Li Manya also disliked Wang Shu very much, so she did not want Li Rong to marry such a good-for-nothing fellow.

In addition, Zhou Feng seemed to be a little pleasing to the eye this time.

Thus, she had sent someone to investigate Zhou Feng’s background.

“He doesn’t seem to have any background. He seems to be a vagabond cultivator who followed the caravan from the west. More specifically, it will take some time!”

“Vagabond cultivator? If he’s a vagabond cultivator, then that can explain his chaotic aura!”

Li Manya nodded.

If he was a vagabond cultivator, then it could perfectly explain why Zhou Feng’s aura was so strange.

This was entirely because there was no one to teach him.

Without anyone to teach him, he should have cultivated on his own. Since he had cultivated to Grade-1 of the Soul Altar realm at such a young age, his talent could be considered not bad.

When compared to the disciples of the clans and sects, he was a monster. This earned him the right to marry into the Li Clan.

From the looks of it, he was a good candidate for Li Rong.

His talent was decent, but the upper limit was lacking. By relying on the Li Clan’s background, Li Rong could completely suppress Zhou Feng.

Li Rong also did not have to worry about being bullied.

The most important point, however, was that Li Rong liked him.

“The most important thing is that he doesn’t have a background. This way, he can be controlled at will. Compared to those people with ulterior motives, this is the best choice!”

Li Manya had already begun to think about the benefits of Zhou Feng becoming the son-in-law of the Li Clan.

Without a doubt, Zhou Feng was very suitable to become the clan’s son-in-law.

Recently, the arrival of the South Sea Dragons in Heavenly Star City had caused some changes.

The Li Clan still tried their best not to interact with other families.

“But from the looks of it, this person still has some pride in his heart. I’m afraid it won’t be easy to accept this!”

Li Manya was still very accurate in judging people.

She knew that this Zhou Feng had his own pride in his heart, and he was an extremely arrogant fellow.

If Li Rong’s personality didn’t change, taming this person would be very difficult.

…

Zhou Feng had no idea that a certain someone wanted to capture him and take him in as the clan’s son-in-law.

At present, he had just entered the inner city of Heavenly Star City.

“The density of the Spiritual Qi…”

As soon as he entered the inner city, Zhou Feng felt that the concentration of Spiritual Qi in the surroundings was extremely high.

This was even higher than the concentration of Spiritual Qi in the Tri-Gu Sect’s blessed land.

One had to know that the area of this inner city was much larger than the Tri-Gu Sect’s blessed land.

Moreover, this Spiritual Qi contained some special traits, and he felt as if his body was being nourished.

No wonder the requirements for entering the inner city were so high.

They restricted cultivators below the Soul Altar realm to enter, and the cultivators had to pay 100 Spirit Stones.

This amount of Spirit Stones could only allow you to stroll around the inner city.

Once nighttime came, those who didn’t own any property in the inner city would all be expelled.

Just by relying on this entrance fee, Heavenly Star City should be making a fortune.

What’s more, almost no one could make a profit in the inner city. One could not cultivate in the inner city, nor could they absorb much Spiritual Qi by relying on passive absorption of Spiritual Qi.

‘Is that the Heavenly Star Tree?’

Zhou Feng looked at the center of the inner city. There was a towering tree there.

The huge crown of the tree directly enveloped the City Lord’s mansion. On the tree, there were many fruits that looked like stars.

Zhou Feng didn’t stay for long before continuing forward. He didn’t forget his purpose in entering the inner city.

His purpose of entering the inner city this time was to sell the Hive Stone in his hands and then check if there were any Purple Mansion cultivation techniques.

It would be best if he could buy a few medicinal ingredients so that he could refine pills after returning.

Not long after, he arrived at the legendary Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

According to his previous inquiries, this Heavenly Treasure Pavilion was a branch of a super-powerful force, the Treasure Pavilion.

One could buy almost anything there. Even if they didn’t have the item one needed for the time being, they could still report it to the person in charge of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

If one had any goods, the people of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion would inform the interested party.

As long as one had enough Spirit Stones or treasures, they could exchange them for anything in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

‘This is the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion?’

Upon reaching the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion’s entrance, Zhou Feng was shocked by the scene before him.

The entire building in front of him was elegant and peaceful. There were strange trees and rare herbs planted in the courtyard. The stone materials scattered around, looking like strange rocks and artificial mountains.

That’s right! The Heavenly Treasure Pavilion’s entrance was actually a large courtyard entrance.

And the Treasure Tower in the center was also ancient, giving off a sense of history.

It was completely different from what he had imagined. It was a completely elegant place.

Zhou Feng was surprised, but he walked to the door and directly stated the purpose of his visit. “Hello! May I know if this is the place to sell Hive Stones?”

“Hive Stone? Yes! Please follow me!” The little girl in charge of welcoming guests spoke extremely gently as she led Zhou Feng inside.
