Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 225 - 118 Why Should I Save the Saintess? The Saintess Gave Too Much!
Lin Xuankong’s Eight Gates Celestial Eye could see extremely far. Naturally, Zheng Yunrui and the other two could not clearly see the dozens of Martial Cultivators rapidly approaching. However, upon seeing ’Mu Shiba’ raise his hand, the three of them stood still without hesitation.
「Not long after,」
those dozens of Martial Cultivators came running, stopping a few miles away from the three. Only then did Zheng Yunrui, Liy Ruoqing, and Liy Ruo Ying understand why Lin Xuankong had told them to stop.
Thinking of how Lin Xuankong could detect the situation tens of breaths earlier, the three of them looked at Lin Xuankong once again, their eyes filled with admiration.
Lin Xuankong spoke, "Do you recognize these Martial Cultivators?"
Zheng Yunrui took a few careful glances and said in surprise, "It seems to be Vice City Lord Zhou Zhenghu of Prison Dragon City, Vice City Lord Xie San Kun of Ba City, and City Lord Cold Blood Robe of Wine City, among others. Among these fifty or so people, there are actually over a dozen Fifth Layer Martial Cultivators, mostly around Mid-grade!"
Lin Xuankong frowned slightly. The position where these dozens of people stood was right in the direction of the next Cold Pool. "Let’s go take a look!"
「A moment later,」
the four had approached those fifty or so Martial Cultivators. Noticing someone approaching, the fifty or so Martial Cultivators who were using Zhengyuan Grass to detoxify themselves looked over warily. Upon seeing the four’s faces clearly, they immediately became serious.
Among them, the most powerful, Wine City’s City Lord, Cold Blood Robe, who was at the Late Stage of the Fifth Layer, directly stood up and respectfully cupped his hands towards them, "So, it’s Hall Master Liy of the Black Tiger Gang Great Marsh Hall and Law Enforcement Hall Master Ruo Ying. Blood Robe pays respects!"
The other dozen Fifth Layer Early Stage and Mid-grade Martial Cultivators also stood up one after another, respectfully cupping their hands when they saw Liy Ruoqing and Liy Ruo Ying.
The remaining thirty or so Martial Cultivators, though not introducing themselves, looked at Liy Ruoqing and Liy Ruo Ying with respect and awe.
The Black Tiger Gang, being the unchallenged largest gang in the Great Marsh Prefecture, along with having Prefect Liy as a figurehead, naturally commanded respect from everyone present.
However, seeing the two Hall Masters of the Black Tiger Gang standing beside a stranger lying on a soft couch, everyone’s faces showed not only respect but also some confusion.
For a moment, everyone looked at Lin Xuankong, their faces full of questions.
At this moment, noting Cold Blood Robe and many Martial Cultivators greeting them, Liy Ruoqing and Liy Ruo Ying only nodded slightly and did not respond.
Lin Xuankong glanced at everyone and then looked at Liy Ruoqing. "Find out what’s going on."
Liy Ruoqing respectfully cupped his hands and then looked towards the dozens of Martial Cultivators.
The dozens of Martial Cultivators, including multiple City Lords, were all surprised upon seeing this.
Even Wine City’s Cold Blood Robe, Prison Dragon City’s Zhou Zhenghu, Ba City’s Xie San Kun, and other Mid-grade Fifth Layer City Lords looked at Lin Xuankong with astonishment.
With a serious expression, Liy Ruoqing asked, "City Lord Han, Zhou Hengzhu, City Lord Xie, City Lord Ling, you are all Fifth Layer experts, and the others around you are also strong individuals. Why are you all poisoned and wounded?"
Wine City’s Cold Blood Robe withdrew his gaze from Lin Xuankong with a peculiar expression. He then sighed and cupped his hands towards Liy Ruoqing. "We fifty or so gathered together can fight against a Corpse Scorpion at the Early Stage or Mid-grade of the Sixth Layer! However, we recently encountered a seventh-rank Great Demon. Even sacrificing over ten Late Stage Fourth Layer Martial Cultivators wasn’t enough to approach it. It’s truly shameful to speak of!"
"A seventh-rank Great Demon?"
Liy Ruoqing’s expression changed upon hearing this, his eyes showing deep fear.
Liy Ruoqing glanced at Lin Xuankong and thought silently,
