Chapter 416: Chapter 416: Golden Core
“`
Having consecutively bombarded Yun Feiyang and Jian Wuji, the physical and spiritual power depletion was extrely terrifying.
With a slight bend in his palm, Li Xiaoyao clenched it forcefully, and a Spirit Qi Pill floated out from the Storage Ring, flying into his mouth.
As soon as the Pill dicine entered his mouth, it dissolved, and streams of spiritual energy flowed like a small creek into his body, spreading throughout.
Li Xiaoyao beckoned lightly with his palm, and two round golden inner cores floated out from the ruins and flew towards him.
The crowd witnessed this scene and couldn’t help but be surprised.
...
“Those are the Golden Cores from inside Yun Feiyang and Jian Wuji.”
“Golden Cores are the essence of a Cultivator. If one can devour them, it will certainly have an earth-shattering effect on their cultivation level.”
“I can’t see through this kid’s cultivation level, but being able to kill Yun Feiyang, he must have reached the Golden Core Realm.”
“Golden Core Realm! This kid looks to be only in his thirties, such a young Golden Core Realm cultivator is unheard of.”
Li Xiaoyao flipped his hand and grasped the Golden Cores in his palm, feeling the robust energy flowing from them.
“If I devour these two Golden Cores for refinent, my cultivation level will definitely reach a new realm.” Having stored the Golden Cores in his Storage Space, Li Xiaoyao turned around to face the people in the pavilion and asked in a cold voice, “Does anyone else want a share of the Spirit Stone Vein?”
Everyone shook their heads repeatedly. Who would dare to target Li Xiaoyao at this point? That would be courting death.
Li Xiaoyao couldn’t be bothered to quibble with these people, turned and walked towards the pouting Xiao Qing, saying, “Alright, I’ll take you to buy so snacks later.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Qing finally showed a smile.
Back on shore, Jin Gang and the others imdiately crowded around, bombarding him with questions. “Instructor Li, the move you just pulled off was so cool, summoning lightning with one hand to kill those two fellows outright.”
“Yeah, yeah, Instructor Li, was that magic spell just now the legendary spell?”
Facing the crowd’s questions, Li Xiaoyao nodded and said, “That was the Thunder Commanding Art. When one’s cultivation level is powerful enough, they can use spells to draw upon nature’s spiritual energy and manipulate lightning.”
While everyone wanted to continue asking, all of a sudden, several camouflage-painted armored vehicles stopped outside the park gate, and troops of soldiers wearing helts and carrying rifles rapidly disembarked from the vehicles. They were evacuating the crowd while surrounding Li Xiaoyao and others.
Li Xiaoyao raised an eyebrow slightly, guessing that the commotion from the recent battle had caught the attention of the authorities.
“Which Sect do you belong to? Don’t you know about the Cultivators’ Convention? Who allowed you to fight recklessly here?” the leading soldier shouted loudly.
Jin Gang snorted and took a step forward, speaking down to him, “Have your leader talk to .”
“Humph, don’t think you’re sothing special just because you’re Cultivators. I’ve got at least eight or ten Cultivators dead by my hand. Rule-breakers like you can’t escape punishnt,” the soldier retorted without any fear, apparently used to dealing with Cultivators.
Just then, six long-haired n stepped out from one of the vehicles, all looking to be in their forties, moving with light and casual strides.
Li Xiaoyao recognized at a glance that these six were Cultivators, and judging from the exquisite badges on their chests, they seed to have been conscripted by the state.
The six approached, and the soldiers imdiately stepped aside, their deanor respectful.
“Master Zhang, these are the ones causing trouble,” said the leading soldier.
“Oh? Has it been too peaceful lately? Daring to reveal your identities in front of the public, huh? Do you really think our departnt doesn’t exist?” Master Zhang said with so anger, his gaze sweeping over the faces, and then suddenly, his eyes fixed on Li Xiaoyao’s face. His expression froze, his body shook, and his attitude changed drastically by one hundred and eighty degrees, his voice dropping to a whisper, “Li… Master Li!”
“`
The lead soldier felt a surge of foreboding when he saw Master Zhang treat these people with such reverence. Sure enough, the next mont, Master Zhang bent slightly with a smile of flattery on his face, “Master Li, it’s you! Hey, look, it’s like a flood washing the Dragon King Temple, all family here.”
Li Xiaoyao gave him a glance and asked, “Do you know ?”
Master Zhang hurriedly replied, “Master Li, you are an important person who often forgets, so it’s normal for you not to rember . I am Zhang Tianyi, who once entered the Spirit Stone Vein to see what was going on and then got trapped by the Illusion Array below, whereupon I was recruited by Military Governor Cheng.”
So, that’s what had happened. Li Xiaoyao rembered now.
At the ti, Cheng Dongliang had represented the governnt to cooperate with him, and Li Xiaoyao had promised to give him a big gift, which was these Cultivators trapped by the Illusion Array inside the Spirit Stone Vein.
“Can I go now?” Li Xiaoyao had no ti to entangle with him further.
“Of course, of course, you can,” Master Zhang turned and shouted, “Make way, don’t block the path, this is Master Li from Ling City, even Military Governor Cheng would have to be respectful upon seeing him.”
The officers who were previously making noise did not dare make a peep at this mont.
Not long after Li Xiaoyao and the others had left, Cheng Dongliang’s phone call ca through.
“Was it you who caused the commotion at Xuan Ming Lake?” Cheng Dongliang had a headache, as Li Xiaoyao, though strong in cultivation, always seed to stir up so trouble, which was very troubleso for Cheng Dongliang. More importantly, the disturbances Li Xiaoyao caused were always significant.
“Hmm, I killed two people,” Li Xiaoyao stated nonchalantly.
Killed two people…
Cheng Dongliang was silent for a few seconds before asking, “Who? Why did you take action all of a sudden?”
No sooner had he finished speaking, Cheng Dongliang’s face suddenly froze, and as if sothing dawned on him, he imdiately asked, “You didn’t cross hands with Yun Feiyang, did you?”
“Hmm, I slaughtered him.”
“What?” Cheng Dongliang was shocked, “Yun Feiyang is dead?”
Li Xiaoyao frowned and asked, “What? Is there a problem?”
“You really are bold,” Cheng Dongliang said with a wry smile, “But since you’ve killed him, that’s that. What’s done is done, there’s no changing it now.”
“Hmm.”
“Where are you now?”
“Just ca out.”
“Later tonight, let’s et, there’s sothing I need to discuss with you face-to-face.”
“Can’t you say it over the phone?” Li Xiaoyao didn’t have much ti now; he wasn’t planning on going to the military camp today. Having not been back for a while, he was rather missing the won, especially since he had just taken his relationship with Ye Qinglian to the next level before leaving. Li Xiaoyao had developed a taste for it and was really struggling to hold back.
“No, this matter is very important; it must be discussed in person,” Cheng Dongliang’s voice was filled with seriousness.
“Fine, I’ll wait for your call tonight.” After hanging up, Li Xiaoyao said to Jin Gang and the others, “You guys go back. Focus on your cultivation, I’ll return when the military region’s competition takes place.”
After everyone had left, Li Xiaoyao sighed helplessly as he looked at Xiao Qing, who was gazing at him with anticipation. He patted her hair and said, “Co on, I’ll take you to eat sothing delicious.”
