Chapter 297

　　When Qin Yun saw Xue Ziye’s confidence, he smiled and said, “Now that you put it this way, I’m really looking forward to fighting you!”

　　“I don’t want to fight with you. God knows how strong you are when you’re fighting with your life on the line. If we fight to the death, it won’t do us any good!” Xue Ziye said.

　　As Qin Yun was chatting with Xue Ziye, Xie Wufeng walked over and said to Qin Yun, “Is this your friend? Let’s go to a restaurant together. I’ve already sent someone to call Third Bro. Sister Lan might come as well!”

　　Xue Ziye nodded before following behind Xie Wufeng with Qin Yun.

　　“Boss Xie, how many ninth level candidates are participating in this competition?” Qin Yun asked softly, “They should not be weak, right?”

　　“There are quite a few who have stepped into the 9th level Martial Body realm for over a year. Originally, Xiao YueLan wanted to come as well but I heard that she was preparing to break through to the Martial Dao Realm. In order to avoid being injured, she didn’t come.” They had already walked out of the assessment hall and were walking towards a tall building not far away.

　　Xiao Yueluan had just broken through to the ninth level Martial Body realm and was about to attempt breaking through to the Martial Dao Realm. This surprised Qin Yun and Xue Ziye.

　　“How strong are the disciples of your Saint Palace?” Xue Ziye asked.

　　“They are all very strong. As for the specifics, I’m not sure. I myself do not have a clear understanding of your strength, so it’s not easy to make a judgment of it.” Xie Wufeng thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, “In short, if your opponents are them, then you should be careful. I heard that their characters are not that great, so you must be wary of them!”

　　“Brother Yun, there are many young disciples in the Blue Spirit Saint Palace who have a great deal of grudge against you. This is mainly because you are Xiao Yuelan’s husband. Furthermore, they all want to pursue Xiao Yuelan, so once they meet you, they will definitely want to use this opportunity to display their strength.”

　　Qin Yun said with a smile, “That’s good. It’s a fair duel anyway. They want to oppress me and I can do the same to them!”

　　Xie Wufeng also knew that Qin Yun’s strength was bottomless. The last time he saw Qin Yun attack the Dragon Lions, he could not see through Qin Yun’s strength.

　　Xie Wufeng brought Qin Yun and Xue Ziye to a hotel and entered the most luxurious level. Because he was an outstanding saint of the Blue Spirit Saint Palace, he had a great deal of benefits from eating and drinking here.

　　They were in a private room and just as they finished ordering, Murong Daren, Huo Zhong and Lan Fengjin came over.

　　“Brother Yun, you’ve finally arrived at the Blue Spirit Saint Palace! You must be here to participate in the competition. I will definitely bet on you to win!” Murong Daren then raised his chopsticks and started picking up the dishes. He was not going to be polite at all.

　　Huo Zhong smiled and said, “If I was at the ninth level Martial Body realm, I would be participating as well. Unfortunately, I’m only a bit off!”

　　“Old second, Old Third, don’t you always try to eat Boss Xie’s food and wine here? You seem to be very familiar with this place!” Qin Yun said with a smile.

　　Murong Daren started to wolf down his food. In front of his acquaintances, he was a bit more casual.

　　After Lan Fengjin sat down, she said, “Ziye, I heard that you came here to join the Eastern Palace, right?”

　　Xue Ziye nodded and said, “Mmm, the Eastern Palace has already agreed to accept me. I will be a disciple of Blue Spirit Star Palace in the future. I hope that Sister Lan and the other Seniors will take good care of me!”

　　Murong Daren said with a smile, “That’s good then. Our team in the Blue Spirit Star Palace is getting stronger and stronger! Brother Yun, when are you coming in? With your ability, you’ll definitely get the same treatment as Boss Xie!”

　　Xie Wufeng, Lan Fengjin and company looked at Qin Yun. They really wished for him to enter.

　　“Like I said, I will defeat Xiao Yanglong and sit in the position of the West Palace Chief Disciple!” Qin Yun smiled faintly. “Why are all of you so forgetful? Don’t you remember?”

　　(TL NOTE : what a load of bullshit. is there any more place for leniency between him and west palace? does he think after killing the trash they will celebrate his win?? pitiful attempt at increasing word count!”

　　Murong Daren sighed, “That bastard Xiao Yanglong is not that easy to deal with! Boss Xie is of the martial dao realm, so he fought with Xiao Yanglong one time, you should ask him how strong he is!”

　　Lan Fengjin took a large gulp of wine and said, “I’ve sparred with Xiao Yang Long before, he’s really strong!”

　　“I can beat Xiao Yanglong but if I go all out, I’ll be injured myself!” Xie Wufeng’s face turned serious as he said, “Brother Yun, you have to step into the Martial Dao to defeat him!”

　　Huo Zhong sighed, “It’s not that easy to step into the martial dao realm! You are all in your twenties, it’s already very easy for you to step into the martial dao realm, not to mention that Brother Yun is not even eighteen years old yet!”

　　“I’ve also never heard of anyone under the age of twenty who can step into the martial dao realm. Even Xiao YueLan would have to go into seclusion for several years before she could step into the martial dao realm!”

　　“Let’s not talk about this, we will drink!” Qin Yun smiled as he raised his glass to toast everyone.

　　No one wanted Qin Yun to feel pressured, so they did not continue their discussion. They toasted Qin Yun.

　　Qin Yun took a big gulp of wine and asked, “The upcoming convention organized by the Blue Spirit Saint Palace seems to be very grand. It’s as though they want to use it to show their strength.”

　　Lan Fengjin nodded, “Indeed. Because the Western Palace and the Nangong Palace have been very powerful recently. They wanted to suppress our Blue Spirit Saint Palace. Therefore, we will use this as an opportunity to display the strength of our Blue Spirit Saint. We will suppress them in the battle!”

　　Qin Yun said with a smile, “Your plans for the Blue Spirit Saint Palace might be broken by me. I might even be able to suppress the entire Blue Spirit Star Palace! ”

　　Murong Daren said with a laugh, “Brother Yun, it seems that you are really confident this time! We also guessed that you would come but we only thought that you would participate in the inscription competition.”

　　“Qin Yun, I also thought that you would be participating in the Inscription Competition. I heard that the rewards for the Inscription Competition are very plentiful but you didn’t go! No matter what you say, there won’t be any harm in participating in the Inscription Competition. It’ll be safer.” Lan Fengjin laughed.

　　Xue Ziye asked, “Sister Lan, do you mean to say that you are participating in the Inscription Competition?”

　　Lan Fengjin laughed sweetly, “Of course! As a young female high level Inscription Master, I am naturally part of the Inscription Competition. No matter if I could obtain first place or not, I still have gained something. The Blue Spirit Palace has proposed generous conditions for me to participate in this event. They are here to give face to our sect!”

　　“Sister Lan, your level of inscription should be pretty good, right? How much confidence do you have in getting into the top three?” Qin Yun asked with a smile.

　　“My chance of getting first place is not high! As for the top three, it’s hard to say but my ranking shouldn’t be too low! ”

　　Lan Fengjin said with great confidence, “It’s a pity that you didn’t participate. Otherwise, with your strength, it wouldn’t be a problem for you to enter the top five. You must know that this year’s Inscription Competition is no small matter. All of the high and middle level Inscriptionists from all over the region have gathered here.”

　　Qin Yun shook his head with a smile. He planned to temporarily keep the matter of him participating in the tournament a secret. He would talk about it when the time came.

　　After eating and playing, they chatted for a while and then left.

　　Qin Yun returned to the assessment hall just in time to see Zhuo Chuan coming over.

　　“Grand Elder, where should we stay tonight?” Qin Yun asked.

　　“Rest assured, I will definitely arrange everything for you! In the Saint Palace I have a friend within the Inscription masters.

　　After Zhuo Chuan said that, he brought Qin Yun and traversed through a small path. The light vehicle moved familiarly as it sped through the saint palace.

　　Not long later, Zhuo Chuan and Qin Yun arrived in a small forest north of the palace.

　　In the small forest, there were several wooden houses. In front of one of them was a large stone table.

　　Beside the stone table, there was a white robed old man with a long beard. He held a large brush and was drawing something on the stone table. No one knew what he was drawing.

　　After Qin Yun and Zhuo Chuan passed by, the long-bearded elder remained focused. He looked at the stone table and used a large brush to write something down.

　　After approaching, Qin Yun was surprised to discover that although the person had white hair and a beard, his face looked extremely handsome and young. Under his snow-white, sword-like eyebrows, his eyes were brimming with vigor as he stared at the tip of the brush.

　　“Old Lan, you’re practicing inscription again! This method seems to be rather difficult!” Zhuo Chuan chuckled and said, “I brought a little friend here to stay for a while!”

　　The young and handsome old man put away the large amount of markings on his hand. A set of inscription suddenly appeared on the stone table and also disappeared in a flash.

　　Qin Yun was immediately alarmed. Although it was only for a short moment, he could tell that the set of inscription was extremely complicated and profound. Furthermore, it was formed from extremely weak spiritual energy.

　　He immediately understood that the old man had been using the brush to channel the spiritual energy in the air to form inscription. This could help him achieve a certain level of proficiency but the process was extremely difficult!

　　“His name is Qin Yun, right?” The elder looked at Qin Yun and asked with a smile.

　　“Qin Yun, this is my friend, Lan Huayu, he is a Xuan Rank Inscription Master. He can refine Xuan Artifacts!” Zhuo Chuan said.

　　“Greetings, senior!” Qin Yun hurriedly greeted him and said politely. However, he was extremely astonished.

　　He had finally met a living Xuan Rank Inscriptionist!

　　Lan Huayu smiled and nodded, “This girl Fengjin has mentioned you to me before. Furthermore, she even showed me the Body Securing Talisman that you refined. It is indeed extraordinary. For them to be at such a level at such a young age, how rare, how rare!”

　　“Senior, who is Sister Lan to you?” Qin Yun already knew that Lan Fengjin’s origins were not simple.

　　“She is my granddaughter!” Lan Huanyu laughed a few times. “This girl has inherited my inscriptions. I hope she will have my achievements in the future!”

　　Lan Fengjin’s grandfather was actually such a powerful person. Then his parents would definitely not be so simple!

　　Qin Yun was even more puzzled. Lan Fengjin clearly had such a powerful grandfather. Why was she still looking for him to create a Longevity Talisman? With Lan Huayu’s strength, he would definitely be able to easily produce it.

　　“Old Lan, your granddaughter has also signed up for the Inscription Competition! What rank do you think she’ll get?” Zhuo Chuan laughed.

　　Lan Huayu said, “Even an intermediate outsider can complete a match in the Inscription Competition. However, it is a test of one’s fundamentals. Feng Jin’s foundation is very solid and she is also a young martial dao realm. Even some old guys are not as good as her and as for her rank, I am not sure. There are a total of five rounds, so it is considered quite good for her to be able to enter the third round!”
