Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 463: A Silly Visitor (3)

Xia Huyou was not the only person who had misunderstood Chen Hao.

Grotto District.

After Xia Huyou showed the token and paid the entry fee of 100 merit points, Chen Hao flashed a silly smile and greeted Old Nie, calling him grandpa. Old Nie couldn't help but laugh.

Where did this silly kid come from?

Was this Su Yu's friend?

When Xia Huyou saw Old Nie's joyful smile, he didn't know what to say. Was this geezer stupid? This was Su Yu's friend. How could he believe that this fellow was a good person?

He couldn't be bothered to say much. After giving Chen Hao a bottle of blood essence, he said, "Try to finish this. There are 100 drops of blood essence here. Su Yu told me to pass this to you."

"What blood essence is this?"

"Mountainbreak bull."

"Oh."

Chen Hao nodded and accepted the bottle. Without asking anything, he stepped through the door with a simple and honest expression. fre(e)webno(v)el

Xia Huyou was getting more and more exhausted. Was this fellow aware of the value of that little bottle? Even he felt some heartache handing that bottle out just like that.

Chen Hao wasn't exceptionally talented. What was the point of giving him such a good blood essence? It was a waste. That bottle of blood essence was worth 1,000 merit points. Coupled with the entry fee to the grotto, Su Yu had spent 1,100 merit points on this person.

Generally, only top geniuses would spend so much money for their body forging. In their academy, even high-high students would find it difficult to get such a treatment. And Chen Hao was getting the treatment everyone wanted? Su Yu was truly generous.

More importantly, Su Yu had not paid Xia Huyou anything this time. This was essentially a loan from Xia Huyou. Su Yu had exhausted all the money he had scammed previously.

After Chen Hao entered the grotto, Old Nie asked curiously, "Someone from the Martial Dragon War Academy? His talent is ordinary. Su Yu sure is generous."

Xia Huyou nodded, "Elder Nie, what level do you think this fellow could reach during the body forging?"

"Probably around the fourth-stage Great Strength Realm."

Old Nie smiled, "He doesn't need to open a lot of acupoints. He only needs 8 acupoints per stage. With 16 acupoints, he can reach the fourth stage. With 100 drops of mountainbreak blood essence and the fact that he's a warrior, he should be able to reach the fourth stage easily."

Chen Hao's main advantage here was the low number of acupoints he needed to open. Even some cultural research academy geniuses would open more acupoints than him. Generally, most of these geniuses would cultivate a cultivation method with 108 acupoints.

Xia Huyou nodded. That wasn't too far from his guess.

Even some of the students less talented in physical cultivation could advance by two stages after consuming 100 drops of mountainbreak bull blood essence in the grotto. This wasn't really that impressive.

"Fourth-stage Great Strength Realm. The Martial Dragon War Academy is slightly weaker academy compared to the Great Xia War Academy. And he is also a new student. With his new cultivation level, he would probably gain even more support in his academy after this..."

Xia Huyou started thinking. There were two more months before the year ended. Chen Hao would probably be able to reach the fifth or sixth stage by the end of the year.

He could only hope that those fools wouldn't really invite Chen Hao out on a mission with them.

Otherwise, as a fifth or sixth-stage Great Strength warrior, he would be able to kill them with one hit. After all, he was going to serve as their guard, granting him the chance to easily approach them before attacking. Even if those fellows were Infinite Strength cultivators, they would still be killed easily.

These cultural researchers wouldn't even have the chance to use their willpower.

Done with his business there, Xia Huyou was about to leave when Old Nie said, "That kid reminded me of something. Why don't the Xia Family recruit Su Yu into the Martial Dragon Guards after he reaches the Skysoar Realm?"

Xia Huyou frowned.

Old Nie said, "The Martial Dragon Guards is the private army of the Xia Family. They are in charge of defending the prefecture. Nobody will dare to touch that army. Su Yu himself is a talented individual with a bright future. What do you think?"

Xia Huyou said, "Old Nie, I want to do so as well, but the issue here is he won't agree."

Old Nie nodded. He said, "It's better for him to start keeping a low profile from now on. How about you? Are you not interested in grabbing some attention? The Xia Family has never produced such a low-profile direct descendant before. Do not imitate Marquis Xia."

"Even Marquis Xia himself was not such a low-profile person when he was younger."

Xia Huyou smiled and said, "I'm still too weak. I shouldn't be embarrassing the Xia Family. My sister Xia Chan is impressive enough. She's a ninth-stage Great Strength already. Before long, she will reach the Infinite Strength Realm. I am very optimistic about her future."

"..."

Old Nie shook his head, "Some people should not grab too much attention while it is the other way around for some other people. You are too low-profile. Even if you can ascend to the position of prefect, who in Great Xia would be willing to follow you?"

Xia Huyou grinned, "We don't even know if I'll be the next prefect. Even if that really happens, Great Xia has been ruled by generations of domineering prefects. My great grandpa is domineering. My dad is very domineering as well. It's better for me to be softer. If even the fourth prefect of Great Xia is as domineering as the past prefects, we would probably end up as the priority target of the myriad races."

Xia Huyou smiled, "It's better for me to be slightly cowardly. Perhaps that way, I might end up being pushed to that position without even lifting my finger. Some people are very scared that Cousin Yuwen would try to imitate my dad upon ascending to the position but end up only learning my dad's overbearing nature and nothing else."

For several generations, Great Xia had been ruled by a domineering prefect that would stubbornly fight the myriad races to the death. Even the myriad races found Great Xia troublesome to deal with.

Xia Huyou wondered if even the secret cult agents among humanity would take the initiative to help him ascend to the position. They would be more than happy to see a businessman like him become the new prefect instead of a second Xia Longwu.

Xia Huyou was both weak and incapable of attracting popular support. The cult would be stupid to not support him. And those capable of actually helping him would most definitely be secret agents with high position among humanity.

Hehehe...

Xia Huyou grinned. He was looking forward to the day these big shot agents establish contact with him. He would be able to take that opportunity to eliminate these cult agents from their ranks.

There was no need for him to be running around grabbing everyone's attention. He believed in the saying that wealth originated from peace. He was a businessman. There was no need for him to start acting like Su Yu. What if he got himself assassinated?

Old Nie smiled and said nothing else. The youngest generation of the Xia Family was truly interesting. Xia Yuwen, who was not Xia Longwu's son, was trying very hard to imitate Xia Longwu.

Meanwhile, Xia Huyou, the son of Xia Longwu, was trying very hard to differentiate himself from his father.

"Alright. I understand." Old Nie waved his hand and said, "Time for you to leave. Stop being an eyesore in front of me. There are no good people in the Xia Family."

Xia Huyou did not mind. He bowed before leaving with a smile. There were no good people in the Xia Family? Elder Nie was slandering them!

Elder Nie was unaware that Xia Huyou had recorded their conversation earlier. From now on, Xia Huyou would become a frequent visitor of this place. After all, he would be able to enter for free from today onward. If Elder Nie refused to let him enter for free, he would pass that recording to his second granduncle and have his second granduncle teach Elder Nie a lesson.

His mind shifted to Chen Hao for a short moment before his thoughts returned to Su Yu. Di Feng had actually returned.

The single character faction was being very generous this time. They had decided to expose a cult stronghold that was led by a Skysoar. One ought to know that among all the cult strongholds, the ones led by Skysoars had the highest possibility of baiting out the truly important members of the cult.

"They know about the existence of so many cult strongholds, yet they have not reported any of these strongholds to the authorities. Even after so many years of using these strongholds as bait, they have yet to capture even one important member of the cult..."

Xia Huyou couldn't help but agree that these people were tumors.

He really didn't know what his second granduncle and the others were thinking. And what would Su Yu do after leaving seclusion? After learning about the removal of Di Feng's ban, would he challenge Di Feng in advance to stop Di Feng from entering the grotto?

...

At the same time, Zhou Pingsheng was meeting up with Di Feng. When he saw Di Feng, he clenched his teeth and said, "If Su Yu challenges you, don't accept his challenge. Ignore him. Focus on the grotto."

Di Feng felt sullen, but he still nodded.

"I understand, Teacher."

"Since only one enemy Skysoar was killed, we can only lift the ban on you. The rest of them will not be able to enter the grotto."

After a short pause, Zhou Pingsheng said, "Try to suppress your cultivation. Don't enter the Skysoar Realm. We don't lack any Skysoar cultivators for now, but we do lack an unrivalled student below the Skysoar Realm. We need to dominate the top 100. This is the only way for us to wash away our shame. In any case, you can strengthen your foundation by delaying your advancement."

"I understand."

Di Feng was unhappy, but he still nodded. He wasn't allowed to advance because the single character faction did not lack Skysoars. Instead, they lacked super powerful Mental Tempering Stage students like him.

With nothing else to say, Zhou Pingsheng left.

After Zhou Pingsheng left, Di Feng kicked the table in front of him apart in anger.

Su Yu!

If it wasn't for Su Yu, he would have been allowed to break through during the coming grotto visit. But he was forced to delay his advancement just so they could suppress Su Yu.

His teacher might have come up with nice excuses such as winning glory for the faction and stabilizing his foundation, but the truth was that his teacher still wasn't willing to give up on becoming the new head manager. And as long as he remained below the Skysoar Realm, his teacher would be able to make use of him and kick Chen Yong away.

"Su Yu...Wu JIa..."

At the thought of those two individuals, Di Feng snorted. The multiple character faction was most definitely the culprit behind his punishment for the scandal. He would not let this slide.
