Dragon Monarch
Chapter 31 - Meng Brothers
Time continued to pass and it was already over a month that Lin Yan joined the Heavenly Dragon sect. During this time, Lin Yan continued to perform the punitive tasks given by the sect master and completed them. In those days, he continued to train with his spear and had already mastered the basic technique perfectly. The strength of his arms increased drastically, he no longer had any difficulty using a 200kg spear.
In that time, Lin Yan had completed several C class missions easily. He had accumulated merit points of 700. But this time he did not collect much resources.
The forest resources of the first region were not as much as the black of the second, third and fourth regions because they were very far apart. With his current strength, if through the path of the outer wilderness region, it would take a week to reach the second territory and Lin Yan was unwilling to waste any free time on the journey. So he only trains himself if there is free time.
His cultivation was still at the first stage Houtian level due to the difficulty of searching for resources.
Although Lin Yan was cultivating every day, his growth speed was slowing down even more if there were no resources.
Lin Yan was currently performing a spear swing as usual with a different basic style than before.
“998.. 999.. 1000.” Lin Yan instantly stopped after finishing swinging his spear a thousand times. He never slacked off in training himself.
“It seems that an exercise like this will not increase my strength anymore.” Lin Yan pondered for a long time. He did not know why he thought that after reaching the Houtian level, his increase slowed down like a snail.
It did happen to all cultivators not only to Lin Yan. But compared to other cultivators, his improvement was actually much greater at the same level.
“Huft, better I take the mission.” Not knowing what else to do, Lin Yan was only planning on taking the mission and searching for resources in the forest of the first region.
Arriving at the mission retrieval building, Lin Yan felt astonished as so many outer wilderness disciples gathered. Even ordinary days were many, but now it seemed that almost all of the outer disciples were in the building. Not even entering.
“What happened?” Lin Yan was confused instantly and tried to enter but it seemed very difficult.
“Lin Yan?”
A melodious voice rang out in Lin Yan's ears and he turned his head towards the source of the sound.
“Gu Yuena?” Lin Yan looked at the super beautiful woman with an extremely charming smile along with his cousin. But there were two other individuals along with the two Miss Gu.
“You are that? I didn't expect to meet you at this place. We came to your residence several times but you were not there.” Gu Yuena looked excited as she spoke to Lin Yan. He and his cousin did come in the afternoon to where Lin Yan was but they had never met Lin Yan.
Of course they would find it difficult to find Lin Yan's whereabouts because he always went home when it was dark.
The two individuals who were men were surprised to see Gu Yuena's enthusiastic attitude. The faces of the two of them looked slightly ugly and looked at Lin Yan with hostile gazes.
“Na'er.. Who is this child?” ask a 16-year-old man.
“Na'er?” inner Lin Yan.
“Do not like that Na'er. We have been in groups for a month. It would not seem wrong to call you that.” Another man said while putting on a very friendly smile.
Gu Yin on the other hand rolled his eyeballs towards the two men as he was naturally aware that both of them were eager to claim his famous cousin was extremely cold. He turned his gaze towards Lin Yan once again. His eyes were slightly showing affection when he saw Lin Yan. A reddish hue appeared on his cheek even though it instantly faded.
“I'm sorry, I always return to the residence when it's dark for practicing in the forest.” Lin Yan apologized to Gu Yuena with a slightly guilty face.
Gu Yuena puffed her cheeks. But he was happy that Lin Yan apologized.
Seeing Gu Yuena's cute behavior, the two men were speechless. They were increasingly hostile towards Lin Yan at this moment. Naturally they had never seen Gu Yuena's behavior like that before the two of them.
“Na'er.. Who is this child?” ask one of the men. Although his tone sounded very soft, his eyes showed such great displeasure.
Gu Yuena's expression changed instantly and looked at the man a little dissatisfied from calling him with a familiar call that he didn't like. “He is Lin Yan, we traveled together before before enrolling in the Sky Dragon sect.”
“Lin Yan, this is senior Meng Yang and senior Meng Song.” Gu Yuena introduced her two comrades to Lin Yan.
“Oh.. greetings know, I am Lin Yan.” Lin Yan introduced himself briefly. Hearing Meng's first name, of course Lin Yan recalled about Meng Shui, he knew that the Meng clan and the Gu clan had a friendship, and, so it was no wonder that the two men formed a group with Gu Yuena and Gu Yin.
Meng Yang and Meng Song's eyes narrowed as it seemed that Lin Yan did not have too much respect for their status as seniors.
“Meng Yang from Meng clan, outer wilderness disciple ranked 29.” Meng Yang introduced himself and his clan as well as his rank.
“Meng Song of the Meng clan, outer wilderness disciple ranked 30.” Meng Song also introduced herself as well as her rank.
Gu Yin on the other hand narrowed his eyes and looked at the two men with smelly eyes as he looked so arrogant when introducing himself.
Even Gu Yuena actually did not like it but remained silent. To appreciate the two men a little, he did not comment at all.
Lin Yan gave a small nod with the introduction of the two Meng men. But he ended up meeting the two top thirty rankers among the outer wilderness disciples. He had heard about it that rank one through ten had a ninth stage Houtian cultivation level. While rank eleven to fifty had an eighth stage Houtian cultivation level.
The two Meng brothers were even more shocked when they saw Lin Yan looked ordinary just knowing their rank in the outer wilderness.
When they wanted to speak, Gu Yuena first opened her voice. “Are you here also want to take a class B mission that was suddenly published in the outer wilderness?”
“Mission class B?” Lin Yan was of course shocked and he finally understood why almost all of the outer wilderness disciples were now in the building to take on missions.
