642: Chapter 17 Yan Chengju 642: Chapter 17 Yan Chengju Holding that thought, An Jing lifted his hand, and the door of the private room opened.
Just as Yan Chengju arrived at the door, he paused for a mont, lowering his head and cautiously peering inside, then caught sight of An Jing’s calm visage.
“Co in,” he said.
“I think you probably want to have a chat with us.”
——He really did notice from the start!
Yan Chengju realized from An Jing’s expression that he had been discovered long ago.
This did not surprise him; knowing that An Jing possessed a Purple Mansion Treasure and was supported by at least a Purple Mansion high-ranking Artifact Refiner, the Yan Family had been prepared from the start that their counterpart’s foundation might be deeper than their own, hence they had taken a very humble posture.
“I apologize for the disturbance.”
This tall Artifact Refiner entered sowhat nervously.
He had intended to greet An Jing but noticed the latter raise a finger.
Only then did he realize that Nian Quan was lying on the sofa nearby, deeply asleep.
Nian Quan?
How could he be here?
And sleeping in such an unsightly manner.
Actually, Nian Quan’s sleeping posture was quite decent; covered with a blanket, he curled up in the corner of the sofa like a ball, resembling a big fluffy ball, yet indeed, quite unhuman-like.
Returning his gaze, Yan Chengju obediently closed his mouth.
Based on his understanding of Nian Quan, this reclusive fellow was extrely wary of anyone and would never expose such a huge vulnerability.
Unless…
he considered this place to be absolutely safe.
“Here, have a seat.”
With a glint in his eyes, An Jing, who now also favored the thod of communication using a microchip, invited him to sit.
Observing Yan Chengju obediently taking a seat to the side, hands crossed on the table, An Jing asked out of curiosity, “What are you planning to do by coming here this ti?”
Yan Chengju had thought of many things to say, but under An Jing’s gaze, he could only honestly respond, “To make a friend.”
“That simple?”
An Jing continued to watch him, with a slight smile, “Why?”
Yan Chengju didn’t know what to say at the mont, so he frankly revealed his true purpose: “Whether it’s Nian Quan, you, or Huo Qing, we see all of you as the future stars of Xuanye City.”
“A single competition ans nothing.
In the future Four Cities Competition, we might still be teammates, and it’s always right to establish a good relationship in advance.”
“Is there any other reason?
Can you elaborate?”
An Jing spoke calmly, and for so reason, Yan Chengju felt a cold sweat coming on—he was feeling a kind of hair-raising sensation that he hadn’t even felt when he was blown away by Nian Quan’s ‘Injured Heavenly River Sword Qi.’
Not just that.
Last ti at the Sky Surveillance Bureau, they were further away, but now facing An Jing directly, the ‘Five Elents Artifact’ inside Yan Chengju’s body even felt a trembling.
There were only a few possibilities: either An Jing possessed a more powerful magic treasure within his body or An Jing’s Cultivation Technique was extrely high-level, affecting the Five Elents, or the ‘Spiritual Fiend’ An Jing held was of such high quality that it could influence ordinary Five Elents Spiritual Fiends.
Although the fact that An Jing had a Purple Mansion Treasure had been confird, Yan Chengju was sure that An Jing’s cultivation and Spiritual Fiend were also exceptionally high-level.
A rare genius that would be seen once a century in Xuanye City, not at all on the sa level as a ‘genius’ like himself, who would appear one or two each year.
——An Xuan, this guy…
Is stronger than Nian Quan, and not just by a little!
“Our Yan Family is a family of Artifact Refiners.”
Since that was the case, he indeed dared not conceal anything and inford An Jing that when they went to the Sky Surveillance Bureau, they had discerned that An Jing had a Purple Mansion Summit level Treasure, and now it’s a common Purple Mansion Artifact.
After he spoke out, he actually felt much lighter.
Being frank about his thoughts might seem a bit submissive, but for these aristocratic young masters, being second-best was all too common.
Through the long course of history, who hasn’t been the second or even the last?
An Xuan is so strong that the upcoming ‘Four Cities Competition’ will be much easier for him.
It doesn’t matter who leads whom; all they need is to win.
“In summary, you have both strength and background.
There will be more and more people like who want to form good relations with you; my family is just the first.”
Yan Chengju’s words were sincere and indeed truthful.
——So that’s it.
He could see the Kanming Bell and Sword Lotus on …
No wonder they misunderstood, no wonder Third Middle School gave such high scores for no reason.
An Jing suddenly understood; many unclear things now made sense.
Yan Chengju’s attitude was quite good.
He smiled, “It seems that students from First Middle School are pretty reasonable to talk to, even though they played so tricks during the previous competition.”
It sounded like he was criticizing the last Special City competition, but Yan Chengju breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that An Jing was willing to ntion it ant he was willing to let it go: “I am willing to apologize.
Against a worthy opponent like Nian Quan, we indeed should have competed fairly and openly.
“Therefore, I brought so gifts this ti!”
Saying so, he took out three Jade Boxes from his Great Void Ring and placed them on the table: “No fight, no acquaintance.
Fellow student Nian’s skills are improving so quickly; you must be guided by An Xuan…
If you need any cultivation grounds or books in the future, you can co to as well, so we can all progress together!”
It’s a friendship fee, right?
Didn’t expect Yan Chengju, who seed so arrogant before, to be so humble after being defeated.
An Jing glanced at the Jade Boxes, quite satisfied in his heart.
However, he didn’t accept them right away.
An Jing lifted his eyes and spoke to the nervous Yan Chengju, “But I’m already with Third Middle School, won’t your First Middle School have any objections?”
“Hey, what does that matter.”
Yan Chengju sighed with relief: “It’s just middle school academies.
In the future, everyone is supposed to go to Tai Ming Academy (directly affiliated with the Luofu Group), the ones really upset are the principals and teachers, but they can’t control us, and our Yan Family has a seat on the board of directors of First Middle School anyway.”
“Besides, it’s just studying together.
With your strength being so strong, you’ll definitely be selected to participate in the Four Cities Competition…
That’s the real battleground.”
“And you don’t have to worry about holding you back.”
At this point, Yan Chengju’s expression beca even more sincere: “During the previous Special City competition, none of us really used talisman or elixir, and many of our signature cultivation techniques and skills weren’t fully displayed, especially our Yan Family’s heritage techniques, which require a complete set of artifacts to use.”
“I hadn’t mastered it before, but I’ve recently collected them all, and my strength is definitely up to par.”
An Jing agreed with this point; Yan Chengju’s strength was indeed not weak.
As a Martial ridian Grandmaster, An Jing could sense the inflow and outflow of Heaven and Earth Qi to determine a person’s strength.
Yan Chengju himself was already at the sixth level of Qi Refinent, and there were five other auras of the sa level on him.
These auras mixed together, almost approaching the Peak of Qi Refinent, simulating the sensation of an Immortal Foundation.
He lifted his hand and picked up the Jade Boxes that Yan Chengju had brought, then sent a ssage to the still-sleeping Nian Quan.
You can’t slap a smiling face; An Jing wasn’t going to do anything to Yan Chengju, but after all, it was Nian Quan who was involved, so it was up to him to decide.
“How long…
did I sleep?”
Upon receiving the ssage, Nian Quan slowly awoke and sat up from the sofa.
He had slept soundly and was quite alert upon waking up.
Moreover, as soon as he lifted his head and saw Yan Chengju, he was fully recovered: “Yan, what brought you here all of a sudden?
Still want to schedule training?
You’re going to have to give more Good Deeds next ti.”
“I’ve always given enough, double the market rate!” Yan Chengju’s mouth twitched: “This ti, I ca to give you gifts.
Wouldn’t it be better to have more people for the next training session?”
“Oh?” An Jing looked at Nian Quan with so surprise: “So you guys have interacted before.”
