Chapter 3: Ling Tian Arranged Men To Spy
Ling Tian's true qi surged with a thought, and he slammed the wall across the air.
With a sharp air-splitting sound, a big hole appeared on the wall, and the pieces of the wall fell very far.
"Is this the power of a True Profound Realm expert? This is simply comparable to a rocket!"
Ling Tian was all smiles.
The world he was currently in had ordinary people and a group of Martial artists.
The initial realm of a martial artist was the Body Tempering Realm.
After the Body Tempering Realm, true qi would be born in the body.
Martial artists with true qi were divided into four classes: Nascent Profound Realm, True Profound Realm, Earth Profound Realm, and Sky Profound Realm.
The True Profound Realm was also known as the Qi Master Realm. The true qi in one's body could be released externally with massive destructive power.
Ling Tian's family was a martial arts family.
His grandfather, Ling Zhengkai, was not only a respected senior figure of the Jiuzhou country but also a Qi Grandmaster Realm with a cultivation base of later stages of True Profound Realm!
Ling Tian's father, Ling Zhenyu, also had extraordinary talent, and his current cultivation base was already at the middle stages of True Profound Realm!
However, Ling Tian could not become a martial artist since childhood due to his physique.
But now, with the villain system, Ling Tian would no longer be restricted by his physique.
Ling Tian could raise his cultivation base through the system, so he wouldn't even need to cultivate like others!
Afterward, Ling Tian took a shower, cleaning all the dirt that oozed out from his entire body just after his breakthrough.
Shortly afterward, Ling Tian walked out of the bathroom with a relieved look, and then he walked to his study room.
"System, open my attribute panel!"
Ling Tian directly called out to the system in his mind.
[Host]: Ling Tian
[Age]: 21
[Strength]: Early stages of True Profound Realm
[Charm]: 100 (Maximum 100 points for ordinary people)
[Luck]: 100 (Maximum 100 points for ordinary people)
[Technique]: Heavenly Poison Scripture
[Items]: Qi Regeneration Pellets x3
[Villain Points]: 0
"System, what is the use of the Qi Regeneration Pellets?" Ling Tian asked the system again.
[Respected Host, Qi Regeneration Pellets can help martial artists at the later stages of the Body Tempering Realm break through to the Early stages of the Nascent Profound Realm]
Although this pellet was no longer effective for Ling Tian, he could use these pellets to train his underlings.
He had many martial artists as bodyguards who were at Body Tempering Realm.
He then had someone call for Qiang Zi.
Soon, the head of his bodyguard troupe, Qiang Zi, walked in.
"Young Master, do you have any orders?"
With a smile, Qiang Zi respectfully bowed to Ling Tian and asked.
"Take these three pills and distribute them each to your men. This pill can help them break through from the later stages of the Body Tempering Realm to the early stages of the Nascent Profound Realm."
When Qiang Zi heard what his Young Master said, he was shocked. He knew how rare those pellets were.
He never thought his Young Master would be willing to give it to his men.
Qiang Zi was moved, and his loyalty to Ling Tian rose even further.
"Okay, I'll thank Young Master for them!"
Qiang Zi smiled gratefully.
"Qiang Zi, there's one more thing I called you for. Take someone with you to keep an eye on Ye Feng afterward. He will head to the antique street this afternoon. Stop him from buying antiques at all costs. Don't let him find out who you are. So, he would think Song Hui was messing with him."
Ling Tian sat on top of his chair, his eyes narrowed, his index finger lightly tapping the desk.
He had long ago scouted the current Strength of Ye Feng through the system.
Ye Feng was only at the later stages of the Body Tempering Realm because it hadn't been long since he, the protagonist, had undergone a rebirth. He didn't have any resources to improve his Strength.
But today, the antique street was his chance.
So Ling Tian wanted to intercept him in every way possible, so he would let Qiang Zi, his trusted underling, deal with this brat.
With Qiang Zi's cultivation base at the later stages of Nascent Profound Realm, he could easily deal with Ye Feng.
"Okay, Young Master! Do we need to handle this kid directly or..."
A fierce smile appeared on Qiang Zi's face as he stretched out his right hand and made a throat-wiping motion.
Qiang Zi, the head bodyguard, was adept at reading people's minds.
While his Young Master treated Ye Feng as his Sworn Brother before, now that the Young Master is ready to deal with him, he, Qiang Zi, will, naturally, be the least bit polite.
He always felt unpleasant looking at this brat and felt his smile was hypocritical. But for Young Master's sake, he could only endure it.
"It's not needed. Humiliate him as much as possible, but don't let him die."
A smile appeared on Ling Tian's face, and he didn't directly agree with Qiang Zi's proposal.
For one thing, Ye Feng still had plenty of [Luck] on him now. Although Qiang Zi was stronger, killing Ye Feng would be difficult because someone would jump out to save him.
Secondly, Ye Feng, the protagonist, was very valuable. Ling Tian planned to milk the brat for all his worth; then, he would kill the brat.
What Ye Feng had done before really disgusted Ling Tian. He was prepared to kill Ye Feng before torturing him severely.
"Rest assured, Young Master, I'll guarantee you I'll make this brat's life worse than death!"
Qiang Zi also had an evil smile on his face. He had many ways to torture people in his head.
When the time comes, he could test them all on this brat.
Just thinking about it lifted Qiang Zi's mood.
"Well, then, you better hurry up and arrange it right now. Remember to keep an eye on him and don't ever reveal our identities."
Ling Tian once again turned to Qiang Zi and admonished him. After all, something like the Protagonist's Halo was too scary.
If Ling Tian doesn't let Qiang Zi keep an eye on him at all times and sends other bodyguards who aren't strong enough, there will likely be a mishap.
Qiang Zi nodded thoughtfully, after which he excused himself and left.
…
After Ye Feng left the Ling family's manor, he took a taxi and was headed in the direction of the antique street!
A martial artist on today's antique street opened a broken bottle containing a long-lost marrow cleansing pill, according to his memory from before he was reborn.
Although he didn't know the exact time, Ye Feng still hurried to the antique street to check the situation. He was confident he would be able to get this Marrow Cleansing Pill.
Ye Feng was aware of his mediocre aptitude.
If it wasn't for the fact that he had undergone a rebirth, there was no way he would have been able to cultivate the later stages of the Body Tempering Realm in a brief period.
"Uhm… Marrow Cleansing Pills have a remarkable effect. A martial artist's physique can be greatly improved by taking them, making the path of cultivation easier in the future. After having this Marrow Cleansing Pill, my cultivation aptitude will rise, and I think it won't take long for me to break through to the early stages of the Nascent Profound Realm!"
Thinking of this, a cold smile appeared on Ye Feng's face. After he broke through to the Nascent Profound Realm, he would personally settle the score with Song Hui.
Song Hui threatened to send martial artists to Ye Feng's house to deal with him.
Ye Feng wouldn't let this incident slide so easily.
Yesterday, if not for Song Hui having a martial artist with later stages of the Body Tempering Realm next to him, protecting him, Ye Feng might have killed him directly on the spot!
The antique street was filled with people when Ye Feng arrived there.
The street was filled with all kinds of ground stalls, and on top of the stalls were all sorts of antiques.
It was challenging to find treasures here as most were fakes and imitations of original pieces.
"The stall owner with the 'Marrow Cleansing Pill' antique is a bald old man with a teenage grandson next to him. I will begin my search at the intersection of this antique street. I believe I can find him quickly if I keep walking around here."
Ye Feng tried to recall the memory in his mind and followed the intersection of the antique street.
He paused at each stall, not wanting to miss this opportunity because of his negligence.
Besides, he only knew the appearance of that stall owner, so if he bought another piece from someone else, he would probably vomit blood.
"Damn it! Where is this person? How come there's no one in sight?! How come my antiques didn't show up already?"
Ye Feng cursed out in anger on the street after searching all morning. He couldn't find a bald grandfather and teenage grandson.
This odd behavior of Ye Feng in the street instantly attracted the attention of those close to him.
People who were passing by looked at this young man as a clown!
"This young man couldn't have been stimulated by something inside the antique trade, could he?"
"Could it be that he was cheated?"
"I think that's possible."
"Could it be that he's out of his mind? If not, he wouldn't act crazy here, would he"
"Is he a fool?"
"Let's all stay away from this fool, lest we get infected by his IQ."
"..."
Soon, Ye Feng noticed that he had lost his temper.
Seeing the crowd with strange eyes and hearing them commenting about him, Ye Feng's face instantly became red.
He felt like a monkey being watched in the zoo at this moment.
'Damn it!'
Ye Feng cursed angrily in his heart before hurriedly leaving the crowd.
thanks for the translation :3
