Chapter 43: The Complete Collection of Mao Mountain Talismans:
In reality, Long Tian initially planned to grow steadily and bide his time.
After that, he decided to amass enough power to utterly overwhelm the Zhao family and crush them without resistance. That would suit Long Tian’s sense of style perfectly.
But, from the looks of it, if he didn’t make a move against Zhao Haoqian, the latter would continue causing him trouble.
Frankly, Long Tian was thoroughly disgusted by Zhao Haoqian’s constant provocations, especially this time, where he had lost a valuable opportunity. This was something Long Tian couldn't tolerate.
Hence, he had to act!
As Long Tian thought about it, his turbulent emotions gradually calmed, and his resolve strengthened.
Jiang Cang was oblivious to Long Tian’s thoughts. He only noticed that Long Tian seemed to have regained his composure, which brought him some relief.
At this moment, Long Tian’s voice suddenly rang out: “I want to use the Tianlang Sect’s men to teach someone a lesson!”
“?”
Teach someone a lesson?
Jiang Cang was momentarily stunned, then cautiously asked, “Captain, are you planning to teach that young man named Ye Liuyun a lesson?”
Recalling how Ye Liuyun was protected by several powerful families made Jiang Cang nervous. If they acted against him and provoked retaliation, the Tianlang Sect wouldn’t stand a chance!
“...”
Jiang Cang’s hesitation only fueled Long Tian’s dissatisfaction.
Even though he understood Jiang Cang’s concerns, he was still unhappy.
In Long Tian’s view, everything should go according to his will. He should be able to do whatever he wanted without question.
After staring at Jiang Cang for a moment, Long Tian spoke in a low voice: “No, it’s someone else!”
“Is that so?”
Not Ye Liuyun?
Jiang Cang felt relieved. He then casually said, “Whoever the Captain wants to teach a lesson, just give the order to the brothers in Tianlang Sect.”
To Jiang Cang, it seemed Long Tian simply wanted to vent his anger on some unlucky soul.
However, Jiang Cang failed to notice Long Tian’s cold gaze.
Long Tian’s target was undoubtedly Zhao Haoqian. Using the Tianlang Sect to strike, Zhao’s family would inevitably retaliate against them first.
As for whether this would harm Jiang Cang, Long Tian didn’t care.
Jiang Cang’s repeated reluctance to comply with Long Tian’s wishes meant he deserved such a fate. This was the nature of the protagonist—selfishness deeply ingrained in his bones.
...
(On the other side)
Ye Liuyun was unaware that Long Tian had decided to target Zhao Haoqian because of him.
Ye Liuyun took out the jade monkey.
When he crushed the finely crafted jade monkey in his hand, a pill emitting a medicinal aroma appeared.
[Should I take it?]
The female leads had mostly gone home by now. Hearing his thoughts, they understood what Ye Liuyun was contemplating and grew curious.
[Never mind! With the power of the Six Internal Thieves, I can digest anything without fear!]
The strength of the Six Internal Thieves gave Ye Liuyun immense confidence. He swallowed the pill in one gulp.
As the pill entered his stomach, the Six Internal Thieves automatically began digesting its power, and Ye Liuyun’s physique started to improve.
[Only about a threefold increase in strength?]
Ye Liuyun could clearly sense his enhanced strength.
[Given my current physical condition, a threefold increase is quite good!]
After all, the stronger one’s physique, the weaker the effect of such pills. With the power of the Six Internal Thieves, Ye Liuyun’s body had already surpassed ordinary limits.
[Enough thinking, it's time to claim my reward!]
At this moment, the most important thing was the reward from signing-in, something Ye Liuyun eagerly anticipated.
[System, time to get to work!]
Whenever it came to this, the system’s response was always the quickest.
[Sign-in successful! Reward: Complete Collection of Mao Mountain Talismans at max level and 50 years of cultivation experience!]
In an instant, countless techniques and experiences in talisman creation flooded Ye Liuyun’s mind!
Divine Fire Talismans, Heavenly Thunder Talismans, Disaster Ward Talismans, Tranquility Talismans, Wealth Talismans, and Evil Suppression Talismans—all these and more!
[Wow!]
[This is overwhelming!]
His thoughts made the female leads worry.
Were things going wrong?
They even prepared to rush to Ye Liuyun’s side.
Fortunately...
[Phew!]
[Good thing I have Six Internal Thieves! I can handle it!]
Ye Liuyun managed to calm down.
[This amount of knowledge is a bit exaggerated!]
The entire knowledge of Mao Mountain’s talismans was vast indeed!
Once his thoughts were clear, Ye Liuyun realized the immense value of his find. Various types of talismans were now at his fingertips. Most importantly, with the power of the Heaven Pen, he could draw talismans out of thin air without any tools!
[This is wonderful!]
His Heaven Pen could finally be put to use!
This inner joy made the female leads smile.
As long as Ye Liuyun was happy, they were happy too.
“System, allocate 30 years of cultivation experience to the Six Internal Thieves and twenty years to the Heaven Pen!”
Although using the Heaven Pen was stylish, the Six Internal Thieves was his foundation. Therefore, Ye Liuyun prioritized the Six Internal Thieves.
Soon, he felt another surge of power.
Host: Ye Liuyun!
Age: 23!
Skills: Iron Fist (LV: max), Medicine (LV: max), Six Internal Thieves (LV: 6), Driving (LV: max), Heaven Pen (LV: 4), Mao Mountain Talismans (LV: max)!
Cultivation Experience: None!”
The Six Internal Thieves leveled up once, and the Heaven Pen twice. This progression was within Ye Liuyun’s expectations.
[It's time for bed!]
...
Meanwhile, Zhao Haoqian wasn't doing well!
He never would have guessed that during his rare leisure time, he would end up in trouble.
-To be continued!
