I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

However, most loose cultivators had long been accustomed to such differential treatments.

Some even believed that this was the norm.

“The Gathering God Pill, is it from the Shen Family, or…”

The person continued to ask.

The fact that he was able to ask this question indicated his relatively high status within the Spirit Sect and the noble families. Otherwise, he would not know the difference between the Gathering God Pill of the Shen Family and that from other Spirit Sects and noble families.

In Yuzhou, the Gathering God Pill of the Shen Family ranked first.

“It’s the Gathering God Pill of the Jade God Sect and Su Family.”

The Su family is one of the top five premier noble families in Yuzhou.

The Jade God Sect, on the other hand, is the number one Spirit Sect in Yuzhou. The martial artists present were taken aback, questioning what the youngster had done to warrant a bounty by these two powerful forces.

“Did they order his capture alive, or doesn’t it matter whether he’s dead or alive?”

“Capture alive. Additionally, according to the intelligence, this person’s power is at least at the Junior Heavenly Man stage.”

Martial artists going in and out of the Thundercloud Pavilion were all aware that the Jade God Sect and the Su family were on the hunt for a young man.

This young man was rumoured to be at least of the Junior Heavenly Man stage in power.

Giving such an ostentatious bounty for a young man without providing specific information indicated that the youngster must undoubtedly be a Loose Cultivator.

In a mansion in Qinglin City, several Loose Cultivators met.

“Does anyone know who the Jade God Sect and the Su family have put a bounty on?”

“I don’t know. I haven’t heard of such a promising Loose Cultivator in Yuzhou.”

“If such a promising figure emerged among us Loose Cultivators, he mustn’t fall into the hands of the Spirit Sects or noble families. We must find his whereabouts as quickly as possible and keep it a secret.”

“Exactly, this person can indeed become a promising figure in our All Ages Alliance. We need to find him and bring him into our All Ages Alliance to confront the Spirit Sects and noble families.”

After a brief discussion, the Loose Cultivators set off in search of the youngster’s trail.

Outside Qinglin City, some buildings were nestled deep inside a mountain.

Wen Yong was pale, suffering from severe injuries. He barely escaped death and evaded a family elder from the Dai Family to hide here.

“Wen Yong, you need to leave here as fast as you can, and we will try to stall the Dai Family’s pursuit!”

A middle-aged man sternly pointed at a map.

“Understood, I will leave immediately!”

Wen Yong nodded, about to turn and leave when a figure hurriedly approached.

“Hall Master, the Jade God Sect and the Su family have put a bounty on a Loose Cultivator prodigy. The alliance has already arranged for people to look for this young man.”

The man placed a portrait on the table.

The Hall Master squinted his eyes, saying, “A prodigy from among us Loose Cultivators?”

“Yes, strength is at least of Junior Heavenly Man stage, according to the information given by the Jade God Sect and the Su family.”

The man nodded.

“Such a prodigy must be brought into our All Ages Alliance. We are in urgent need of a prodigy.”

The Hall Master said joyfully.

“But, Hall Master, both the Jade God Sect and the Su family have put a bounty on him. Rumor has it that an Elder Heavenly Man has been dispatched.”

The man stated gravely.

“The more attention he draws from the Spirit Sects and noble families, the more it proves that he is indeed a prodigy. As a Loose Cultivator, he will inevitably seek protection from our All Ages Alliance if he is being hunted by the Spirit Sects and noble families.”

“Find his whereabouts as quickly as possible. If necessary, I will personally intervene and hold off the Elder Heavenly Man from the Jade God Sect or Su family.”

The Hall Master said earnestly.

“Yes, Hall Master!”

The man left in a hurry.

Wen Yong took a glance at the portrait of the youngster, sighing internally that another prodigy was to join their alliance.

He, Wen Yong, was also regarded as a prodigy among the Loose Cultivators.

However, his circumstances were rather perilous at the moment due to a fallout with the Dai Family.

If it was merely threats, the Dai Family would only send a Junior Heavenly Man at most, or an Elder Heavenly Man at the strongest, to hunt him down.

But now Dai Yingying is dead, and the Dai Family has concluded that he is the murderer. Even the Refining God Heavenly Man Patriarch of the Dai family has decided to personally end his life.

Wen Yong didn’t know if he had any chance of escaping Yuzhou.

After all, he was a marked man for death by the Refining God Heavenly Man!

If it wasn’t for the alliance helping him escape, he would have been dead by now and wouldn’t have survived this long.

However, the All Ages Alliance was not ready to reveal itself and more of its power just for his sake.

Wen Yong hurriedly left, embarking on his journey of escape.

As for Xu Yan, who was about to be hired by the Jade God Sect and the Su family, he had no clue.

He was on his way to Qinglin City, preparing to explore the city.

On the route to Qinglin City, martial artists were coming and going. Suddenly, one from the city stopped abruptly, recognizing the young man—wasn’t he the one with a bounty on his head from the Yu Shen Sect and the Su Family?

He was overjoyed and immediately circled back discreetly to Qinglin City.

“Indeed, the metropolis of Ling Domain is remarkable.”

Xu Yan gazed at Qinglin City and couldn’t help but marvel—it was truly one of the top six cities of the premier families.

When he first entered the Inner Domain from the borderlands, he was struck by the splendid and imposing cities. Even a remote small county city was equivalent to the capital of a borderland country.

Now, seeing the metropolis in the Ling Domain, Xu Yan’s horizons expanded once again.

The cities in Ling Domain are incomparable to those in the Inner Domain.

At the massive city gates of Qinglin City, the guards were all peak Great Grandmasters, charging entrance fees from loose cultivators.

“Grandmasters are everywhere, even Great Grandmasters are common, and first-rank martial artists are at the bottom among them, almost ordinary in Ling Domain.”

Xu Yan watched the martial artists at the city gate, deep in thought.

The gap in the Inner Domain is too vast!

Grandmasters in the Inner Domain are among the strong.

But in Ling Domain, they’re almost ubiquitous, as common as third-rank or first-rank martial artists in the Inner Domain.

Xu Yan was not surprised by this. After all, the spiritual energy in Ling Domain is denser, and the Heavenly Earth Lingji is more active – making it easier to cultivate. In such a world, people’s innate gifts are naturally higher.

What’s more, with the active Heavenly Earth Lingji, practicing martial arts becomes easier.

Just as Xu Yan was preparing to enter the city, a man suddenly approached him and murmured, “Young man, you dare to enter the city? Follow me quickly. If we don’t leave now, it’ll be too late.”

Xu Yan raised an eyebrow, “What do you mean?”

“You’ve been put up for bounty, come with me quickly!”

The man replied in a hurry.

A bounty on his head?

Xu Yan frowned, was it because of the affair with the Qing Tian Jiao Tomb?

As he followed the man, Xu Yan asked, “Who are you and why tell me about the bounty? Which power has put a bounty on me?”

“I’m just a loose cultivator who couldn’t stand Spirit Sects and noble families planning to sabotage the destiny of other loose cultivators, so I decided to warn you.”

The man led Xu Yan towards a certain place outside of Qinglin City, continuing, “The ones who put a bounty on you are the Yu Shen Sect and the Su Family. You should know what it means when the Spirit Sect and a noble family put a bounty on you, right?”

With a serious look on his face, the man continued, “However, I do know a place that can help save your life.”

A flash of cold light passed in Xu Yan’s eyes. So the Yu Shen Sect and the Su Family put a bounty on him?

“Just wait till my breakthrough, and you’ll pay for this.”

He said to himself coldly.

“You’re just a loose cultivator. How can you help me evade the bounty from the Yu Shen Sect and the Su Family?”

Xu Yan was somewhat curious.

Of course, he kept his guard up and prepared to strike at any moment, killing the man if necessary.

“This is a secret. After following me and meeting someone, you’ll know.”

The man then continued, “You can be at ease, young man. I certainly don’t mean to harm you. If we loose cultivators continue to kill each other, we’ll be enslaved by the Spirit Sect and noble families for generations.”

Suddenly, Xu Yan stopped in his tracks.

“Young man, what’s wrong?”

The man was taken aback.

Turning around, Xu Yan casually said, “Those who put a bounty on me are coming. You can leave now if you don’t want to get involved.”

The man’s expression changed. He looked up to see two figures racing towards them.

“Run, young man!”

The man said hastily.

Standing still, Xu Yan replied, “Run? They are minor Heavenly Martial Artists. I’d like to see why they have put a bounty on me.”

The man’s face was anxious. Seeing that he couldn’t persuade Xu Yan, he had no choice but to leave hastily.

“You should come with us.”

The two minor Heavenly Martial Artists looked down at Xu Yan and spoke arrogantly.

As deacons of Yu Shen Sect, the top Spirit Sect in Yuzhou, and a premier family, the Su Family, they were accustomed to being haughty and superior.

Xu Yan looked at their clothes, which bore the emblems of the warriors from the Yu Shen Sect and the Su Family.

With a cold smile, he said, “Are you here to invite me, or to boss me around? If you’re here to invite me, be polite. If you think you can command me, then get ready to die!”

“Impudent!”

A Yu Shen Sect deacon shouted furiously, “Just a low-ranking martial artist, a mere loose cultivator, don’t think that just because you have a little strength, you can ignore the rules. What crime did you commit?”

Xu Yan’s face turned icy. He raised his sword without hesitation, striking straight and true.
