Condensation Realm, Sixth Layer!
Li Xiaoyao clasped his palm, feeling the nearly six-fold increase in might within his body.
From the fifth layer to the sixth layer of the Condensation Realm, Li Xiaoyao had taken only a re half a month.
Such rapid cultivation progress, if word got out, would leave those martial artists and cultivators speechless with shock.
He took out his phone to check the ti, 4:30 in the afternoon.
There were many missed calls and ssages on his phone, and after selecting a few to reply to, Li Xiaoyao stood up, ready to leave.
Before leaving, Li Xiaoyao made a special effort to probe the giant serpent underground with his thoughts, discovering that the serpent still had its eyes closed, deep in slumber, showing no signs of awakening.
His own breakthrough had caused quite a stir.
He had been worried that the noise from his breakthrough would incur the serpent's displeasure, but now it seed he had worried needlessly.
Back at the shop, Li Xiaoyao grabbed his car keys and walked out the door.
He entered "1933 West Jindu Road" into the navigation and drove off.
Half an hour later, Li Xiaoyao's car stopped outside a Republic-era villa.
1933 was the house number; this Republic-era villa was just two hundred ters away from where Cheng Dongliang lived.
Outside the villa, a multitude of sedans were parked, all of them the most ordinary cars, worth no more than two or three hundred thousand, with the best among them being an Audi A6.
The cars might be common, but the license plates on each car were extrely impressive.
Plates with five eights or five nines, mounted on the front of cars worth only two or three hundred thousand, let people know that the owner of these cars were incredibly formidable figures.
Li Xiaoyao got out of the car, glanced at the sedans, and muttered to himself, "It seems quite a few big shots have been invited."
Li Xiaoyao walked up to the villa and as he approached the entrance, he was stopped by a man in a suit. After asking for his na and a brief communication with the inside of the villa through an intercom, Li Xiaoyao was smoothly admitted.
The villa's living room had been transford, spacious and bright like the lobby of a five-star hotel, and the middle-aged n, generally in their forties or fifties, sat on several sets of sofas.
These n were of extraordinary bearing, clearly not average individuals.
As Li Xiaoyao entered the living room, he imdiately drew everyone's attention.
"Who is this person? He is so young!"
Many were secretly astonished, as the gathering that day was organized by Chairman Qian Zhengfa of the Lu Province Fenghua Real Estate Company.
Once the news of the Jindu Zheng Family's arrival in Ling City spread, Qian Zhengfa imdiately organized an influential gathering in Ling City for the Zheng Family, as a welcoming event to help them settle in.
Of course, Qian Zhengfa, being rely a businessman, could only invite so-called big shots from the business world.
He couldn't invite political leaders like Chairman Ji.
He couldn't invite military leaders like Cheng Dongliang of the Lu Province military district.
Standing next to Qian Zhengfa was a young man nad Qian Xiaohua, who had previously had a conflict with Li Xiaoyao.
Li Xiaoyao stood in the living room, his gaze sweeping around; after lingering on Qian Xiaohua's face for a few seconds, he looked away.
To him, Qian Xiaohua was nothing more than a trivial character, not worthy of being rembered by Li Xiaoyao.
Soone asked, "Who is that young man?"
"I've never seen him."
"Chairman Qian, aren't you going to introduce that young man?"
Qian Zhengfa was also puzzled; he couldn't recall ever inviting this young man, and he didn't even know who this young man was.
Qian Xiaohua whispered a few words in Qian Zhengfa's ear, and Qian Zhengfa's expression subtly changed. Looking towards Li Xiaoyao, he demanded, "How did you get in?"
```
Li Xiaoyao ignored him and walked over to an empty sofa to sit down, saying, "Yang Tianren invited ."
"Who is Yang Tianren?"
"Young man, you've co to the wrong place."
Li Xiaoyao furrowed his brow slightly. This Yang Tianren had invited him over but hadn't ntioned him to anyone else. Was this a deliberate attempt to make him embarrassed?
Qian Zhengfa asked, "Young man, are you Li Xiaoyao?"
Li Xiaoyao replied indifferently, "That's ."
Qian Zhengfa nodded slightly, pointed to Qian Xiaohua beside him, and asked, "Do you recognize him?"
"I don't know him," Li Xiaoyao said. He had only beaten him up but didn't actually know him.
However, Li Xiaoyao's attitude and tone made Qian Xiaohua furious.
"Bastard, I see you dare to do but not to own up to it!" Qian Xiaohua cursed coldly, "Back at the Purple Sky Manor, when you laid hands on and humiliated , weren't you arrogantly unstoppable? How co you now say you don't recognize ? Hmph, a coward and nothing more!"
Li Xiaoyao lifted his eyelids and asked, "I've beaten you, but do I know you?"
"You..." Qian Xiaohua was at a loss for words, unable to rebut.
"It looks like this young man is here to cause trouble."
"Tonight we are here to welco and honor Master Zheng. Chairman Qian should quickly get rid of this kid."
"Yes, if Master Zheng arrives later and sees this scene, he will probably be unhappy."
Qian Zhengfa's face darkened as he said, "Kid, you've beaten up my man and still dare to be so arrogant. Do you truly not take , Qian Zhengfa, seriously at all!"
Li Xiaoyao responded indifferently, "Who are you? Worthy enough for to take notice?"
"Good, good, good!" Qian Zhengfa said three "goods" in a row, "In Lu Province, even Old Cheng from the military zone wouldn't dare speak to like this. You, a nobody, dare to use this tone with . If I don't teach you a proper lesson today, where would I put my face, Qian Zhengfa's face?"
"Old Cheng from the military zone?"
"Haha, this kid probably doesn't even know who Old Cheng is."
"Lu Province military zone, Old Cheng Dongliang!"
Li Xiaoyao, hearing the discussion of these people, said, "We're not on the sa level. In your eyes, Cheng Dongliang is soone you look up to, but in my eyes, Cheng Dongliang is rely soone with the qualifications to talk to ."
"Did I hear that wrong? What did this kid just say?"
"Old Cheng just has the qualifications to talk to you?"
"This kid must be crazy."
Qian Zhengfa's face was so dark it nearly dripped; Li Xiaoyao's arrogance was beyond his imagination. Just as he was about to call security to drag Li Xiaoyao away, suddenly footsteps were heard coming from the door.
"Master Zheng!"
As a man shouted this phrase in the hall, the others imdiately stood up from their sofas with respectful faces and greeted the young man walking from the villa's entrance with a pile of smiles and shouts.
There was also an elder beside the young man, his hair and beard white but his complexion rosy, eyes clear. He walked with a steady gait.
Zheng Fengfeng nodded to the crowd and involuntarily looked over at Li Xiaoyao, his pupils suddenly contracting.
The shadow Li Xiaoyao had cast on him was indeed too intense; now, just seeing Li Xiaoyao made his heart rise with fear.
Seeing the look Zheng Fengfeng gave Li Xiaoyao, Qian Zhengfa thought he was angry and imdiately said, "Master Zheng, this kid doesn't understand the rules and has offended you. Please, don't lower yourself to his level. I will call the security to get rid of him right now."
At this mont, the elder beside Zheng Fengfeng walked over to Li Xiaoyao, smiling, and said under the stunned gazes of the crowd, "This must be Fellow Daoist Li, I presu? It is my pleasure to et you. I am Yang Tianren."
