Light Cultivation
Eps. 288 — Blacksmith City
Jian Chen finally arrived at the government building of the Miou clan, he landed in the first hall where Miou Fan and the others were having a meeting.
Although he had not recovered, Miou Fan did not in fact first rest but gathered all the other Elders to conduct an emergency meeting.
On his throne, Miou Fan took care of the Miou clan who looked messy after the coup, especially in the business field of his clan, the association.
One thing that could still be grateful for was the pill recipe that the Qilin Empire swordsmen wanted to not be successfully stolen by them.
Although Miou Xian tortured himself and the other elders to obtain the pill recipe but the old man did not manage to obtain it, all the elders were silent and unwilling to divulge the pill recipe even if it lost a life.
Jian Chen's arrival there was enough to make all the attention on him let alone Jian Chen coming in a hovering manner.
All of the Elders in the hall had known of Jian Chen's strength defeating the high-level warriors of the Qilin Empire.
Watching Jian Chen be able to compensate for even killing his opponents made them understand Jian Chen's true strength.
The Elders who had known Jian Chen a long time ago were amazed at Jian Chen's improvement which he thought was beyond their reasoning. Five years ago the young man was still in the Soul Realm but now his strength could not be measured even with a single glance.
Miou Fan tried to get off his throne even though his entire body was still in pain for Miou Xian's torment, he then saluted Jian Chen as well as thanked him.
Miou Lin as well as the other elders followed, arguably the current Jian Chen was a hero to the Miou clan, he said, if there was no existence of him perhaps the Miou clan would no longer be able to be saved even if the Empire helped though.
Jian Chen responded with an awkward smile, to be honest he was not very comfortable in such treatment, after all it was natural that he helped the Miou clan because the clan had helped the Jian clan repeatedly.
***
Jian Chen did not want to interfere too much with the affairs of the Miou Clan government because he thought it was their privacy so Jian Chen left the meeting room after his affairs were done.
Miou Lin ordered Miou Fan to accompany Jian Chen to his resting place, because when compared to the others, Miou Lin was the closest to Jian Chen.
"Young master Jian, thank you for helping the Miou clan, we are indebted to you..." Miou Lin opened her voice as the two walked through the hall.
"It's okay Miss Lin, I'm also part of the clan association so it's fitting that we help each other."
Miou Lin wanted to say something again but finally chose silence, he understood thank you was not enough for what Jian Chen was doing, Miou Lin only promised himself that he would help the Jian clan in the future.
Miou Lin brought Jian Chen to a room that was usually used by the guests who came to the Miou clan.
Although Jian Chen was not injured in the fight but Miou Lin understood Jian Chen needed a break.
Before parting Miou Lin said that Jian Ya was currently resting in one of the other rooms. Jian Chen nodded then closed the door of his room, he threw his body onto the bed in that instant.
"It's really exhausting..."
Jian Chen closed his eyes on the bed, his inner power completely drained a lot when fighting the warriors of the Qilin Empire let alone when he had to face the three King Realms at once.
There were many factors that made Jian Chen's fighting strength already stronger compared to his previous life. Starting from the techniques he learned, his fighting experience, and the elements he had.
In his first life, Jian Chen would probably have a hard time facing his three opponents who were in the same realm but now he could face four to five opponents at once if he used all of his strength.
"This is not enough, I should better understand the next stage of martial cultivation..." Jian Chen took the position of sitting preceptively, his martial comprehension slightly increased when fighting the previous Qilin Empire swordsman.
If Jian Chen's martial comprehension increased then there was a chance he could go to the next realm stage of Light God's cultivation.
After the Starlight God then Jian Chen would break through to the Star Race Light God Realm.
Jian Chen was confident that if he made it to that realm his strength would match those at the realm of the God Realm, a level after the King Realm swordsman.
With his strength now Jian Chen would not be able to resist the Qilin empire completely, he had to train to become even stronger.
After having rested for three days and recovering his inner strength, Jian Chen came out of the room just as it was already night time, what was found when he opened the door was a woman who was already standing in front of the door of his room who seemed to have been waiting for him.
"Ah, sorry, did I bother you..." Jian Ya was wrong.
Jian Chen coughed softly, he did not expect Jian Ya to come to his room.
Jian Chen was actually indeed going to meet the girl because the reason came out but did not expect Jian Ya who would come to him first.
Jian Chen slightly stared at Jian Ya's face, the girl did not sustain any injuries after infiltrating the Miou clan but was mentally disturbed a little. Perhaps Jian Ya had seen something that made her point of view different.
"Are you okay?" Jian Chen smiled gently at the girl, stroking her cheeks slowly.
Jian Ya only answered him with a slow nod, the girl slightly blushed as Jian Chen treated her thus.
The reason Jian Ya had come here was due to feeling worried for Jian Chen after watching the young man fighting fiercely above the sky. Seeing Jian Chen was fine made the girl's feeling a little calm now.
Jian Ya then relayed another reason he came here because the next day the girl had to go to the blacksmith city, she said, Jian Ya was actually already late from the due schedule but seeing that there was a great conflict in the Miou clan, she could not stand still either.
Jian Chen was a little surprised to hear this, he knew the blacksmith city in question was Donghu City but that made him react because the girl had the same purpose as him.
His initial intention after Jian Chen delivered Miou Lin to his clan he was indeed going to go there. Jian Chen and Jian Ya might go to the same place but their goals were different.
"I'm actually planning on going to that town, too..." Jian Chen scratched his cheek awkwardly, he was sure Jian Ya would assume differently regarding him but Jian Chen paid no heed to it especially since the girl must have been aware of how he felt about her.
Jian Chen then took Jian Ya away together, considering that the girl could fly there was no reason for Jian Chen to go there with her.
The invitation was taken by Jian Ya, actually from the beginning he hoped Jian Chen would come with him but did not expect the young man to even invite him.
Jian Chen smiled gently before stroking the top of the girl's head slowly, he felt Jian Ya was very pleased with the invitation.
