Ch126 - Breaking Up In Bad Terms

Walking over, the second heroine smiled when she saw the husband and wife who were roasting meat. “It turned out to be Alchemist Liu and Craftsman Jiang, long time no see!”

“Fellow Daoist Bai!” With a polite smile, Liu Mufeng greeted the other party.

Glancing at the second heroine, then at that Li Da, against whom he held a grudge for hurting his Mufeng previously, Jiang Xu said nothing, he continued to eat his grilled meat with his head lowered.

“Have the two Fellow Daoists been promoted to the Spiritual King Realm?” Wen Qing couldn’t help being stunned when he saw that the strength of the two had already reached the Spiritual King Realm. How long had it been? After all, it had only been nine years since they met for the first time. Unexpectedly, these two people were already in the Spiritual King Realm. Did they find a good opportunity for cultivation?

“It was just a lucky advancement.” With a smile, Liu Mufeng answered lightly.

“Congratulations to the two Fellow Daoists!” Smiling, the second heroine sent her well wishes.

“Many thanks, Fellow Daoist Bai.” Still with a decent smile still on his face, Liu Mufeng responded courteously.

“Your meat is well-grilled, sell us some, I’ll pay you the spirit stones.” Looking at Liu Mufeng, Hua Jintang looked at the skewered meat in the other party’s hand. Just now, his Senior Sister had complimented the fragrance of the grilled meat; she must want to eat them. Therefore, if he helped his Senior Sister buy grilled meat, his Senior Sister would be happy.

In order to pursue the second heroine, Hua Jintang had asked his father to help him send a lot of gifts. It took a lot of effort to learn the Art of Crafting under Bai Xiong. However, Hua Jintang’s crafting talent was really bad, and hence even with the guidance of a famous teacher, the magic tools that he had crafted were comparable to the magic tools that Xiaoyuan spat out, and more often than not, many times he had fried or busted his furnace and failed in his crafting.

Even though his Art of Crafting was messed up, Hua Jintang was quite the stalker, following the second heroine every step of the way, trying to please his goddess with flattery and willingness to be her fodder. Unfortunately, among the five people, he had the worst crafting skills and the worst strength. Therefore, the second heroine didn’t even bother to look at him at all, but even so, Hua Jintang still spared no effort to pursue his goddess.

Hearing Hua Jintang’s words, Jiang Xu snorted coldly. “Not selling!”

“You…” Hua Jintang was stunned when he heard Jiang Xu’s straightforward refusal. As the son of the Town Lord, and as an apprentice of a master craftsman, he had never been so humiliated. Unexpectedly, a rogue cultivator would dare refuse him and not give him face. It really pissed him off. What’s even more irritating was that this bastard actually didn’t give him face in front of his Senior Sister, which made Hua Jintang feel very ashamed.

“Apologies to this little friend, we only prepared the portion for two people, and we don’t have any spare grilled meat to sell to you.” Liu Mufeng said with a light glance at Hua Jintang.

“You, do you know who I am?” Looking at the two of them, Hua Jintang’s face was ashen with anger, and he arrogantly asked the two of them.

“Your Excellency is the son of the Lord of Xianghe Town, and the young apprentice of the Lord of Flame City – Hua Jintang.” With a smile Mufeng responded. Liu Mufeng was naturally aware of Hua Jintang’s identity.

“What’s so great about that? A nine-star Spiritual Master Realm cultivator.” Jiang Xu curled his lips in contempt and looked disdainful. Even if his father might be in the Spiritual Emperor Realm, he still couldn’t change the fact that his own strength was in the Spiritual Master Realm. What was the use of powerful identity when he was so weak? He really didn’t know where this person’s confidence comes from, what kind of energy was he pulling?

“You, you…” Hua Jintang’s face darkened even more after hearing Jiang Xu’s casual words. He did not expect that someone would speak about him in such a tone. Even the cultivators in the Spiritual King Realm would be polite when they met him, but this cultivator, not only was very impolite with him, but also despised him and insulted him so much, making Hua Jintang sincerely hate Jiang Xu.

“Forget it, since the two fellow Daoists don’t have that much demon beast meat, let’s just grill some by ourselves. Junior Brother, go collect firewood.” Looking at Hua Jintang, the second heroine responded finally.

“En!” After looking at the second heroine, Hua Jintang turned and left. But before leaving, he glared at Jiang Xu fiercely.

Seeing Hua Jintang looking at his lover before leaving, with eyes full of resentment and murderous intent, Liu Mufeng frowned. He thought inwardly:This Hua Jintang cannot be left alive!

Not long after, the three Martial Brothers in the second heroine’s group also set up a campfire and started grilling meat. Eating the barbecued meat in her hand, the second female frowned frequently. She always felt that the meat grilled by the three Senior Brothers was unpalatable, and it smelled different from the meat grilled by Liu Mufeng. But she also understood that Jiang Xu didn’t like their group of people. Although Liu Mufeng’s attitude was very polite, there was quite a distinct sense of alienation in his politeness. Obviously he didn’t want to have any deep friendship with them.

To be honest, the attitude of these two people surprised the second heroine. Because, whether in Flame City or other places, all men who saw her, were fascinated by her beauty, and they all chased after her with flattering expressions trying to please her, but meeting these two people, the second heroine found that her charm seemed to be greatly reduced. This guy Liu Mufeng didn’t react at all to a beautiful woman like her, let alone Jiang Xu. She guessed this was because her Second Martial Brother had frightened Liu Mufeng before, and hence Jiang Xu regarded them as enemies and didn’t want to pay attention to them at all.

Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu finished eating in a little while. After eating, the two of them left without saying goodbye to the second heroine and her group. Seeing the second heroine appear in this beast mountain, what Liu Mufeng was most anxious to do now was to grab that cultivation opportunity before the second heroine could.

Seeing Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu leaving, Hua Jintang snorted coldly. “Senior Sister, who are those two people?”

“Oh, that man’s name is Liu Mufeng, a third-level alchemist, and his partner Jiang Xu, who is a third-level craftsman. We were acquainted with them a few years ago when we were at sea.” With a smile, the second heroine told the previous contact with the two people.

Hearing this, Hua Jintang pouted. “What’s so great about a third-level craftsman? Looking at their shabby clothes, they look like poor ghosts who can’t even eat well.”

Hearing this, Li Da nodded. “It is indeed two poor ghosts, just two fishermen fishing.” Li Da was also very disdainful of these two people. He felt that these two people were just two smelly fishermen. Even if they didn’t go fishing at sea, they still couldn’t get rid of the essence of being fishermen.

Hearing these two people talking, Wen Qing shook his head. “I don’t think it was that easy for these two cultivators to advance to the Spiritual King Realm in just nine years. The speed of their advancement is not slow.”

“Yeah, these two are already in the Spiritual King Realm at a young age, their cultivation qualifications are indeed good.” Seeing the two of them had advanced to the Spiritual King Realm, Su Xiao also thought that these two were not simple.

“Fast advancement may not necessarily be due to good cultivation talent. Maybe they have gone through some bad times and good luck and found an opportunity.” Hua Jintang didn’t think that two lowly commoner cultivators could have good qualifications. So they must have just hit big and luckily found a good opportunity.

“En, there is such a possibility too.” Nodding, the other people also agreed to such possibility.

“If that’s the case, then their luck is really good.” The second heroine said sourly. Back then, when she was stuck in the Nine Stars of the Spiritual Master Realm, her father took great pains to find opportunities for her. However, thinking that those two commoner cultivators may have found a big opportunity, and advanced to the Spiritual King Realm in nine years, the second heroine felt a little envious.

As the daughter of the City Lord, the second heroine always felt that she was superior, and she had always felt that only the most advantageous conditions could cultivate the best cultivators. Therefore, she despised these commoner cultivators with lowly backgrounds and her three Senior Brothers who were born from common people. She also looked down on Hua Jintang, this second-generation young master who was born from an obviously good family background, but was useless in cultivation and talent.

“It’s impossible to be so lucky all your life.” Having said this, Hua Jintang’s eyes narrowed. Later, he would send a letter to his father, asking him to send someone to kill that bastard Jiang Xu. How dare a lowly cultivator laugh at him!

“Luck is also a part of cultivation.” For a cultivator to grow higher, in addition to the step-by-step penance, having luck was also very important. Sometimes, if you could find some opportunities, you could advance faster than cultivators of the same age. A few decades, or even hundreds of years, of less practice. Therefore, Qi Luck also played a very important auxiliary role on the road of cultivation.

“I heard that eight years ago, there was a relic of a Spiritual Emperor Realm cultivator in Phoenix Mountain. I wonder if Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu have been there? That’s a big opportunity.” Su Xiao touched his chin as he wondered out loud. By the time they heard the news and rushed over, the palace ruins had already been raided, and there was nothing left.

“No way? How could there be such a coincidence?” Shaking his head, Wen Qing didn’t quite believe it.

“Maybe it’s that dangerous place in the North. Aren’t Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu fishermen? Maybe they took a boat to that Death Island and got an opportunity.” The Death Island and Phoenix Mountain were the two major places for opportunities that had emerged in recent years. Unfortunately, when they got the news and rushed over, they all found nothing.

Hearing this, the second heroine nodded. “I also think that they should have obtained the things on Death Island.” The second heroine also felt that the chances of Liu Mufeng and Jiang Xu getting their opportunities at sea were more likely than the chances of getting them at Phoenix Mountain.

“I don’t know if there might still be any spiritual treasures on them.” Speaking of this, Li Da’s face was covetous, showing his insidious intention that he wanted to kill people and steal their treasures.

“I’m afraid the scourge has already been wiped out. If one wanted to advance to the Spiritual King Realm within nine years, it was impossible to do it without heaven defying opportunities.” Shaking his head, Su Xiao felt that even if these two people had obtained a lot of good opportunities, at this moment, after advancing to the Spiritual King Realm, they should have used up the treasures and have nothing left on them.

“I also think there’s nothing left on them.” Shaking his head, Wen Qing also felt that both of them had advanced, so how could there be other opportunities on them?

“Yeah, they’ve both been promoted to the Spiritual King Realm. What opportunities would be left at this moment? If only I had met them earlier.” Speaking of this, the second heroine narrowed her eyes. If she had gotten the opportunities on Death Island, she would be able to advance to the four-star in Spiritual King Realm. What a pity, it was actually taken away by two commoner cultivators.
