156: Chapter 156 Waiting in Place

Ye Chen looked at the jade pendant, not expecting it to contain a full-strength strike from a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator; this was a life-saving trump card.

However, fate was truly unpredictable; Ye Chen never imagined that the person who helped him back then was actually the Hall Revered Master of the Asura Hall.

Ye Chen put away the jade pendant and sighed, "Back then, I didn't know he was the Hall Revered Master of the Asura Hall. No wonder the Kuangsha Sect was wiped out right after I mentioned them."

Li Junlin was also delighted. He hadn't expected his Revered Master to know his grandfather; it was truly fate.

Only then did he say, "The two of you, please rise."

These were, after all, Cultivators who had come to find him. Even if they were his family's subordinates, he had to treat them well.

Li Junlin sighed, "I just don't know if I'll have the chance to attend my father and mother's wedding."

Ye Chen couldn't help but laugh, "You little brat, why would you attend your parents' wedding? That's a matter for the elders. It would be quite awkward for a junior like you to go."

The two Asura Hall Cultivators didn't dare to say much. After all, it was confirmed that the person before them was their Little Young Hall Master; they had to remain respectful toward Li Junlin.

But hearing Li Junlin's words, they couldn't help but chuckle.

Li Junlin smiled awkwardly and said, "I just miss my father and mother, hehe."

One of the Asura Hall Cultivators suddenly said, "The General is in the Endless Sand Sea. I wonder if the Little Young Lord would like to meet him?"

Li Junlin was a bit puzzled and asked, "Who is this General?"

The Cultivator replied, "The Asura Hall is divided into Nine Departments and One Pass. Our General is the Chief General of the Ghost Gate Pass."

"At the same time, the Chief General is the Hall Revered Master's only Disciple and a Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Peak."

Li Junlin couldn't help but gape. He hadn't expected to have a Junior Martial Uncle, and one whose cultivation was even more formidable than his own Revered Master's.

Of course, this seniority was calculated based on Li Daoxuan's side; otherwise, with Ye Chen's cultivation, he would have to address Li Fengqing as Senior.

Then, he asked, "Then I wonder what the cultivation levels of my grandfather and aunt are?"

The Asura Hall Cultivator said with a smile, "Our Hall Revered Master is very powerful. It is said that two Middle Stage Soul Transformation experts from the Central Plains have already fallen at his hands. Based on my guess, he should be at the Late Stage of Soul Transformation."

Li Junlin's eyes widened. He stared blankly at the Asura Hall Cultivator, then at his own Revered Master.

For a moment, he didn't know what to say. He had always heard from his parents that his grandfather had no Spiritual Root, but now, in the blink of an eye, he had become a supreme powerhouse at the Late Stage of Soul Transformation.

There were probably very few Late Stage Soul Transformation powerhouses in the entire cultivation world. He hadn't expected to be the descendant of such a big shot.

?

Thinking of this, he nodded slightly and said, "Let's meet."

The two Asura Hall Cultivators finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he agreed to go back, it was fine.

Because the two of them really couldn't guarantee the Little Young Lord's safety, it was better to take him back and let the Chief General take responsibility. So, hearing Li Junlin's words, they both let out a sigh of relief.

Li Junlin suddenly said, "Revered Master, please come back with me."

Ye Chen shook his head and said, "I have important matters to attend to, so I won't be going back with you."

As his voice fell, he disappeared directly from the shop, leaving only his voice behind.

"I'll leave this Fanchen Residence to you. As for how to handle it, that's up to you."

Li Junlin reached out his hand but eventually sighed and murmured, "Revered Master, oh Revered Master, if you don't want to go, then don't go. Why leave so quickly?"

Ye Chen was planning to leave anyway. Now that his only Disciple had a place to settle down, he felt more at ease about leaving.

Although the Asura Hall was very good, and as an acquaintance of the Hall Revered Master and Li Junlin's Revered Master, he would surely receive good resources, he would always feel like he was living under someone else's roof. He didn't like that feeling.

Furthermore, he knew many resource locations. Previously, Li Junlin was a burden, but now he could go and find those resources on his own.

Li Junlin sighed, "Shopkeeper Feng, for now, I'll leave the matters of Fanchen Residence to you."

Shopkeeper Feng looked at Li Junlin eagerly and asked, "Young Boss, when will you be back? You're not planning to abandon us, are you?"

Li Junlin shook his head and said, "Don't worry, Revered Master left this to me, and I won't give it up. After I meet my Junior Martial Uncle, I will definitely return."

Shopkeeper Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief. In the past, if Ye Chen had been gone for too long and Li Junlin hadn't grown up, he would have definitely taken Fanchen Residence for himself.

But things were different now. Who could have imagined that the Young Boss was actually the Little Young Hall Master of the Asura Hall? In the Endless Sand Sea, this was definitely a powerful backer he had to cling to tightly.

Li Junlin looked at the two Asura Hall powerhouses and asked, "I don't have anything to prepare. When do we set out?"

The two Asura Hall powerhouses quickly said, "We can start our journey now. I have already sent a message back; the General is already on his way."

Li Junlin nodded. Since Li Fengqing was coming here, he would wait. He knew his own cultivation was poor, and these two were only Golden Core Stage Cultivators. It would be troublesome if they encountered danger.

The Asura Hall was able to dominate the Endless Sand Sea, but it also had mortal enemies. Those original Sects of the Endless Sand Sea had already united to form the Anti-Asura Alliance.

Their strength was not to be underestimated. Although there were no Soul Transformation powerhouses here, what if one appeared?

The two Asura Hall Cultivators didn't dare to gamble with the Little Young Lord's life, so they could only wait for the Chief General's arrival.

...

At an Asura Hall sub-branch, after receiving the message, Li Fengqing quickly picked up another transmission talisman and sent a message.

"The Little Young Lord has been found. This Disciple will go and bring him back. Should he be sent to the Central Plains?"

Soon, he received a message from Li Daoxuan.

"Let him stay with you for now. We'll talk once we return to the Three Northern Kingdoms."

Ultimately, Yunding Peak in the Three Northern Kingdoms was their home base. Li Daoxuan was used to living there. No matter how prosperous the Central Plains Cultivation World was or how many resources it had, it wasn't as good as Yunding Peak.

After Li Fengqing replied with a few words, he put away the transmission talisman and quickly flew toward Shatian Market with a few subordinates.

He already knew the specific location. He was just afraid that if he arrived late, those remnants would find out and act against the Little Young Lord.

His suspicion was correct because just as he was rushing over, the so-called Alliance was also about to take action against Li Junlin.

Outside Shatian Market, many powerhouses had already gathered, their eyes fixed intently on the market.

A Nascent Soul Stage powerhouse asked, "Are we really going to capture that kid inside? It's said that Asura Hall powerhouses are already there guarding him."

Another Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator said, "Only by capturing that kid can we force the Asura Hall to retreat. How else can we reclaim the entire Endless Sand Sea? Don't you want to restore the glory of your Sects?"

Several Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators nodded quickly, "Of course we want to restore the glory of our Sects."

"What's the difference between us now and stray dogs? We can only retreat to the northernmost part of the Endless Sand Sea, using the danger of the sandstorms to resist the Asura Hall."

"I've had enough of this life. I don't want to live like this anymore. I want resources, I want territory, and more than anything, I want to become a high and mighty Grand Elder."

They were all used to being high and mighty, but now they had become like stray dogs. This sense of disparity made them feel miserable, and they all wanted to change this outcome.
