Chapter 22 — Flame Empress! Lin Yan’s Chance!
A few days later.
A flying spirit boat departed from the Xuantian Sect, flying above the vast sea of clouds.
The flying spirit boat was quite large, with enough space to accommodate hundreds of people in its many rooms.
In one of the rooms, Lin Yan sat cross-legged. He did not choose to travel alone but instead decided to go with the disciples of the Xuantian Sect.
After all, the journey of fifty thousand miles would be too time-consuming if he travelled alone.
Knowing that Lin Yan was going with them, Yang Chen specially arranged a private room for him.
At this moment, Lin Yan’s face was filled with excitement.
“Master, I have already prepared all the materials for refining and merging the Primordial Fire! Now, I am just waiting to collect it! Master, if the Myriad Flames Celestial Conflagration Art absorbs the Primordial Fire, what level can it be raised to?”
As Lin Yan spoke, a phantom appeared in front of him.
“Though her figure was illusory, she was nevertheless alluring and graceful, with a sexy and slender body that exuded an air of charm.”
“Master, why are you here? Aren’t you afraid of being discovered by others?” Lin Yan asked in confusion.
Because when he was in the Xuantian Sect, his master only communicated with him but never appeared in person, fearing being discovered. But even as he said this, his eyes were fixed on the enchanting figure of his master in front of him.
He couldn’t help but gulp. A touch of heat flashed in his eyes.
Master is so beautiful.
If he could rebuild his body for his master in the future, perhaps there could be something between them.
Heh heh.
Lin Yan couldn’t help but fantasize.
“After leaving the Xuantian Sect, without those Soul Transformation cultivators, others won’t be able to discover Master!”
The voice of the phantom was soft and confident.
She was known as the Flame Empress.
When she dominated the heaven and earth, cultivators at the Soul Transformation Realm were nothing more than ants in her eyes.
The Flame Empress continued: “Although the Myriad Flames Celestial Conflagration Art is not of high grade, it can merge with the Primordial Fire, continuously improving it! There are a total of one hundred and eight Primordial Fires on the list. Even if you merge with the lowest-ranked Primordial Fire, it can greatly improve the grade of the Myriad Flames Celestial Conflagration Art! At that time, the speed by which you absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will be enhanced by at least seven or eight times, or even more than ten times!”
“So exaggerated!?” Lin Yan was also stunned.
His current speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was already very fast. Otherwise, he would not have reached the Fourth stage of Foundation Building realm in just a few years. If his absorption speed increases by more than ten times, his cultivation speed would simply be terrifying. By then, the Golden Core realm, and even the Nascent Soul realm, would be within his reach.
“Yan’er, this time, there should be more than just the Xuantian Sect heading to the Red Cloud Mountains! With a distance of 50,000 miles, if the Sect Master of the Xuantian Sect can sense it, then other sects should be able to as well. They will probably send their disciples to investigate too! So, you must be careful!” The Flame Empress cautioned.
But Lin Yan didn’t care.
“No need to worry, Master. No matter how many people there are, they are destined to make a wasted trip! I have a feeling that this Primordial Fire is meant for me!” Lin Yan was extremely confident.
However, the Flame Empress couldn’t help but furrow her brow.
This disciple of hers was becoming more and more arrogant.
Ever since she told him that he could unleash the power of the Soul Transformation realm, he, a cultivator at a mere Fourth stage of Foundation Building realm, did not put the Golden Core or even Nascent Soul realm in his eyes.
Sigh.
“Master, when we get to the Red Cloud Mountains, I want to take the opportunity to kill Yang Chen! Can you help me?” Lin Yan suddenly said, with a hint of fierceness in his expression.
The Flame Empress’s brow furrowed even deeper. She had witnessed everything that had happened to Lin Yan during this time. She felt that Lin Yan’s obsession was too deep and that he had a deep bias against Yang Chen.
From a female perspective, she could see that Lin Yan’s mother, Lin Xilan, genuinely liked Yang Chen. And, she was brimming with happiness and affection. This was not a pretense.
“Yan’er, if you kill Yang Chen, your mother will hate you. What will you do then?” The Flame Empress asked.
A hint of cruelty flashed across Lin Yan’s face.
“Hmph, she’s just been deceived by that scoundrel Yang Chen! After I kill Yang Chen, she will naturally come to her senses!”
Sigh!
The Flame Empress couldn’t help but sigh.
“Master, do you disagree?” Lin Yan immediately asked.
The Flame Empress furrowed her brow and said, “Yan’er, as a woman, I can tell that your mother really likes Yang Chen. She is very happy! As a son, you should also consider your mother’s feelings!”
“Enough, Master!” Lin Yan interrupted in a deep voice. “I don’t want to hear these words! Yang Chen must die. He and I are irreconcilable!”
Sigh!
The Flame Empress did not speak, only sighed in her heart.
Killing Yang Chen, how easy would that be?
There were some things she did not say directly to Lin Yan, fearing that it would once again strike him hard. After all, he had already been so anxious that he spat blood and fainted once before.
Yang Chen was able to reach the Seventh stage of the Golden Core realm in a short period of time, and his cultivation was extremely solid, without any flaws. The opportunities he had gained were definitely not simple.
How could one simply kill such a person?
Two days later.
The spirit boat arrived at the Red Cloud City next to the Red Cloud Mountains.
Originally, there were only more than ten Golden Core cultivators in Red Cloud City.
Each Golden Core cultivator was a hegemon in the city. However, in the past few days, these Golden Core cultivators were trembling one after another.
One flying spirit boat after another landed in Red Cloud City. The Golden Core cultivators who walked out of them were countless. Moreover, all of them looked young. At a glance, they were the top figures of major sects, not to be trifled with.
As the top power in the Northern Spiritual Realm, the Xuantian Sect’s reputation preceded them.
After the flying spirit boats landed, the lord of Red Cloud City immediately rushed over.
“I am the lord of Red Cloud City. I have seen the Young Master of the Xuantian Sect! I invite the friends from the Xuantian Sect to come to the lord’s mansion. I have prepared accommodations for you to stay!”
Although the lord of Red Cloud City was a cultivator at the Seventh stage of the Golden Core realm, he kept a low profile.
Yang Chen glanced at him.
In the original work, this lord of Red Cloud City was an insignificant character. However, his lord’s mansion held a stroke of luck that belonged to Lin Yan.
In the original work, Lin Yan saw a little girl in the lord’s mansion. She was a new slave bought by the lord’s mansion, responsible for cleaning. However, this little slave was not simple. She possessed a very powerful physique. This was discovered by Lin Yan’s master, the Flame Empress.
So Lin Yan bought her and later she became a member of Lin Yan’s harem, not to mention a powerful helper for him.
Heh heh.
But now.
This stroke of luck was taken by his stepfather.
