Urban Seduction: Housewives Club Chapter 2053 - 382: Power and Speed 3

Previously on Urban Seduction: Housewives Club...
Wang Yalan, Wang Yaning, and Wang Yue discussed the precarious position of Jinling's three major families against the bolstered Zhang family, relying on the Warriors Alliance to deter stronger threats from the Tianhai Zhangs. Zhu Liyue joined the conversation, reassuring them that the Alliance's oversight and internal rivalries among powerful families would prevent rash actions, while praising Wang Yue's foresight in prioritizing self-strengthening. To test his skills, Zhu Liyue sparred with Wang Yue at suppressed cultivation levels, where he revealed his rapid advancement via a secret technique, and she advised harnessing his pure true energy to boost move speed alongside power for greater combat effectiveness.

Meanwhile, Feng Xuan selected Wang Xin’er a full five times with her pointers, then assigned one mark to each of the remaining girls before wrapping up the activity. Following that, Zhu Liyue and Feng Xuan turned down Wang Yue’s suggestion for a shared midday meal and departed from Wang Family Manor.

"Senior sister, I realized that every one of those girls, aside from Wang Jingjing, has actually reached the Tianyuan Realm in cultivation. What's really happening here?" Feng Xuan found herself compelled to question as she handled the driving.

"I inquired with Wang Yue on this matter. He went through some unusual events..." Zhu Liyue shared the details Wang Yue had revealed to Feng Xuan, concluding with, "Regarding Wang Jingjing, I suspect it's due to her youth preventing her from practicing that method as of yet."

"Such a method truly exists, and Wang Yue managed to acquire it. He's incredibly fortunate," Feng Xuan remarked with a tone of awe.

Zhu Liyue let out an amused chuckle. "Why feel jealous? Regardless of how formidable that method might be, it pales in comparison to your feat of leaping straight from a mere mortal to the Tianyuan Realm."

Feng Xuan grinned in response, her voice filled with anticipation. "I truly wish we could finish this task quickly, so I can claim the next inheritance upon our return."

In their Xuan Nu Palace, an ancient inheritance stele stands available, granting each disciple up to three such legacies.

Even for those with the weakest aptitude who skip all practice, the trio of inheritances guarantees at least the pinnacle of the Guizhen Realm.

Naturally, no one falls into that category. Thus, for elite groups like the Tianhai Zhang family, attaining the De Fan Realm—a realm of solid foundation—comes effortlessly to all in Xuan Nu Palace.

Given their relative youth, Zhu Liyue and Feng Xuan have claimed just one inheritance each up to now. Through their dedicated cultivation efforts, they've risen to become formidable mid-tier experts within the Guizhen Realm.

Yet the mightiest figure remains the present palace master, Su Mengchen.

Her initial inheritance propelled her instantly to the late Guizhen Realm stage. The second one elevated her to the seventh layer of the De Fan Realm.

With the third, she stepped into the Chaotuo Realm. She holds the record as Xuan Nu Palace's most exceptional inheritor ever.

This achievement allowed her to ascend to palace master at an impressively young age under forty.

A short time later, Feng Xuan posed another question. "Senior sister, how should we handle that De Fan Realm powerhouse who popped up out of nowhere?"

"We can't do a thing about it. Ever since yesterday, that individual hasn't displayed any true energy usage. Even the Yuanjing Mirror proves pointless now," Zhu Liyue explained.

"Still, no cause for excessive concern. That figure likely harbors no hostility toward the three great families. If otherwise, his De Fan Realm prowess could have obliterated them all in a single evening."

"Do we inform our senior uncles about this?" Feng Xuan inquired further.

"Absolutely, caution is key," Zhu Liyue affirmed. "Include the updates on Wang Yue and his group too. The palace master will surely delight in the news."

"Mm." Feng Xuan agreed with a nod. Though the palace master has spent under thirty years in Xuan Nu Palace and often seems distant and stern, her authority commands immense respect throughout.

All in Xuan Nu Palace hold her in high regard, even former rivals for the palace master role. Young members like Zhu Liyue especially idolize her.

For one, the palace master's talent shines extraordinarily. At her tender age, she's hit the Chaotuo Realm's peak and pushes toward a legendary height.

Moreover, despite her icy exterior, she nurtures her fellow disciples with parental warmth. Thanks to her guidance, Xuan Nu Palace has grown increasingly united and cohesive over time, forming an unbreakable whole.

Skipping the details of how the two sisters relayed the events to their senior uncles, let's shift to Wang Yue. Once Zhu Liyue and the rest had gone, he promptly set out to verify his theory on attack velocity.

While the rear garden boasts a spacious area, it falls short for intense workouts. Thus, Wang Yue headed to the top-tier training facility at his residence.

Admittedly, Wang Family Manor's premier training site suits only Tianyuan Realm users unleashing full power. It doesn't fit Wang Yue's current level perfectly, yet it serves well enough for his practice.

Wang Yue had his two elder sisters and two younger sisters tag along for support. Wang Zhiting and Wang Qianqian, however, opted out of the session.

Within the training area, Wang Yue held off on immediate drills. He located a towering black stone instead. Pulling the Lengyue Treasure Sword from his space ring, he hacked at it haphazardly, carving out a vague humanoid form.

Naturally, Wang Yue lacks any sculpting flair. His creation offered just a crude silhouette of a person, far from lifelike.

This material, known as Black Yunshe, arose from the earth's grand upheavals. It lacks broad applications, but excels in toughness—ideal for crafting practice dummies.

The chunk Wang Yue molded boasted superior resilience. It endured his maximum blow without cracking. The Wang family had stockpiled it earlier, though unused until now.

Carving such tough rock proves challenging, of course. Despite channeling true energy through it, Wang Yue scarcely formed the basic shape before the Lengyue Treasure Sword neared destruction, its edge marred by jagged chips.

Wang Yue felt little dismay, however, since the blade no longer met his needs.

At purchase, he'd assumed the sword—capable of handling Guizhen Realm true energy—would serve him enduringly. Yet within a mere month plus, this 500 million credit point treasure turned worthless.

Evidently, he must gather superior resources and enlist Aunt Yan's aid in forging a far sturdier blade.

Wang Yue reflected that while weapons matter little to his raw power output, in clashes with equals, the tiniest edge can flip victory entirely.

Plus, wielding a sword carries undeniable flair. Take demolishing an object: a fist punch versus a clean sword slice creates worlds of spectacle.

Thoughts swirling, Wang Yue launched into strikes against the humanoid rock figure.
