The Night King: The Asura
Ch-18555i. Veiled woman
Xie Long certainly understood the meaning of the words of the figure within him, but what Xie Long did not understand was, why did the figure even warn him? Wouldn't it be better if he just kept quiet and took that good chance?
But whatever it was, Xie Long certainly could not ignore the warning just like that, even though he wanted to immediately increase his strength, but that did not mean he could ignore his safety, moreover, that figure was already very good to him.
"Thank you" said Xie Long.
"For what?"
"Because I've been warning myself."
"Disregard it, I did it just because I wanted to see your struggle, after all, I was wondering if you could clear the test of the damn bird or not."
"May I ask you something?"
"What!?"
"What is your strength comparable to that bird?"
"Haha! What kind of stupid question is that? Of course it's not comparable, and you need to know, my strength is incomparable!"
"What about Uncle Huise?"
"I admit he's great, but still no match for me, and that damn bird isn't his match either!"
Xie Long had indeed known if the power of Asura was an extremely extraordinary power, but just how much power it actually was, he himself still had not found the answer.
"One more."
"Other thing you want to ask!?"
"What about dad?"
The figure within Xie Long was silent for a moment, he was hesitant as to how to answer Lin Feng's son's question.
He was indeed the embodiment of the strongest power, but when compared to Lin Feng, the story was clearly much different, even he himself had no idea how great the power of the supreme God was.
"Why are you quiet?"
"Cihh, don't compare me to him!"
"Why?"
"Are you stupid or what? Isn't it clear that your father is unmatched?"
"It turns out dad was amazing" muttered Xie Long.
Having been warned not to push himself, Xie Long could only undo his intention to meditate, and being bored of being in his room, he decided to go out and take a walk in the city.
"Honor, Young Master!" greet the soldiers who stand guard in the palace.
"Uncle, may I ask you something?" Xie Long asked in a friendly manner.
"Of course, Young Master" the soldier replied.
"Look, I intend to take my great-grandfather for a walk in the city, but since I haven't seen him, do you know where Grandpa is?"
"Young Master, the emperor's majesty is going to the Middle region, regarding the noble affairs of coming there, neither do I know it."
"Is that so? Yes, thank you uncle" said Xie Long, then left the imperial palace.
After being in the city, Xie Long tried to find interesting things that might eliminate his sense of boredom, but after traveling around long enough, he still did not find anything that he thought was interesting.
Until finally, Xie Long saw the people who were gathered not far from the city square, and out of curiosity, he approached them.
The man replied to Xie Long, he noticed Xie Long's appearance from top to bottom, "It's no child's business like you!" abugn.
Xie Long's brows furrowed when he heard the words of the man beside him and somehow, it was curious that he kicked the arrogant face shown by the man.
Even so, Xie Long was not a person who liked to cause trouble, so he preferred to just shut up and ignore the man beside him. After all, there were still many others he could question.

After standing there for quite a long time, Xie Long finally understood why those people had gathered. It turned out that they were discussing the gate to the Sacred Land that was about to open.
Unlike before, where people could come to the Holy Land freely, this time they were required to wait until the gate to it opened, otherwise, until whenever they would not be able to get there.
This incident was of course caused by Lin Feng, because he was the one who had destroyed the only access road leading to the Sacred Land, the Land of Clouds.
But, Lin Feng was not a person who was not irresponsible for his deeds, because after the Cloud Country was destroyed, Lin Feng used his strength to create a special dimensional gate, surely after he became a God.
If previously, those who wanted to come to the Sacred Land would have to have a large supply of soul crystals, this time they could come without paying any fees, just that, just that, they need to wait for some time.
Moreover, on the sacred land there were also no longer any laws of space and time that restricted those who wanted to come there, in other words, anyone can come there as long as they have the strength to take care of themselves.
And yes! The cause of that loss of the rules of space and time, was none other than Lin Feng himself. The reason for that, was because Lin Feng wanted cultivators to be able to explore any land freely.

"Holy Land, huh? I've heard about this land from dad, so it doesn't hurt if I go there" muttered Xie Long, then left the crowd.
However, his steps came to a halt after noticing the sharp gaze of someone who was fixed on him, "I never harassed anyone during my time here, then why did that sharp gaze even you point at me?"
"I know what you're thinking now, and my advice, you better forget it" replied one of the women who had also been in the crowd.
"What right do you have to forbid me from going there?"
The girl who seemed to be seventeen shook her head softly, "I have no right, but this thing I did was just to remind you."
"I know what I have to do, and I know where my power limits are!" xie Long said, then left the girl who covered her face with the veil.
The beautiful girl seemed annoyed at Xie Long's words, even though she only intended to warn herself, but even such a cold attitude that she got from Xie Long.
"This kid is so brash, but I'm getting curious about him" the beautiful woman muttered, then followed Xie Long silently.
Xie Long certainly realized that he was being followed, but he preferred to pretend not to realize it, and at the same time, Xie Long also headed to a place that was quite quiet, but he also wanted to go, because he already had a plan to dismantle the woman's goal.
"The bait has been installed, now only need to wait for the fish to come" he murmured as he continued to dart from one roof of the building to the roof of the other building.
Not long after, Xie Long suddenly jumped towards the right, precisely between two buildings that were quite quiet. While the woman who followed him, also did the same thing, but he actually did not find the existence of Xie Long there.
"Where did the boy go?"
"From the beginning I told you, I don't have a problem with you, but why are you tailing me instead?"
The girl was shocked when she heard the voice of Xie Long who was already behind her, but as she twisted her body, she found no one there, and strangely again, she was not there, the aura of Xie Long's existence completely disappeared without a trace.
"I don't have any intention, just curious about you" the woman replied.
"Curious? What interesting things did you find in this thirteen-year-old?"
The woman's facial expression again showed the same thing, she really did not expect if the man she was tailing was indeed a thirteen-year-old teenager.
"Huh" the woman let out a long sigh, "It turns out that it is indeed a boy" she muttered, then left the place.
