The Plum Blossom Fan was activated as Long Ming's Fragrant Yin Qi erupted. Everyone suddenly felt they could smell something fragrant. Petals of plum blossoms scattered around Long Ming as he retaliated.
*BOOOM!*
A powerful gust of pink wind burst as Long Ming's fan slapped that person's chest. The disciple of the Green Cloud Sect felt like someone threw an entire mountain on his chest.
With a booming sound, a maelstrom of plum blossom petals appeared at it and swatted the disciple away. The disciple git shot back like a cannonball he slammed into the wall.
" KHUAA!"
He vomited a mouthful of blood as he fell to the ground. One could see his chest was almost caved inwardly.
" Bastard!"
The Elder of the Green Cloud Sect became enraged as his aura erupted. However, at that moment, a voice boomed across the hall.
" Hah! Orthodox Green Cloud Sect, huh?" Meng Zhi snorted as he walked forward. " Sneak attacking a guest here, I demand an explanation!"
Meng Zhi's True Qi burst forth as it looked like she summoned the season of Spring itself. Endless vitality flowed behind her as flowers bloomed in her surroundings. However, those flowers are made up of her True Qi which contained terrifying destructive power.
" You think My Eternal Spring Tower is a pushover?"
" You!!" The Elder of Green Cloud Sect gritted his teeth when he heard that. " Hmph! Consider yourself lucky! We will see you in Imperial Tournament!"
He hurried as he fed a pill to his injured disciple. However, everyone couldn't help but glance at Long Ming, who was standing there without any expression.
It wasn't like he was expressionless. But in his heart, he was screaming right now.
' Wh-What the hell happened! What's with that power!!' Long Ming's heart pounded as he looked at his Plum Blossom Fan. It the painting on it was still glowing with pink light as he could feel a fifth of Fragrant Yin Qi depleted in his body.
" Did you see that! That young man just casually swatted the Inner Disciple of Green Cloud Sect!"
" Inner Disciple? Doesn't that mean that disciple is at the True Core Formation realm? Just how strong is that Long Ming?"
" Impressive! Such elegance!"
Long Ming sighed as he folded his fan. " Well, It looks like the Green Cloud Sect is manipulated by Liu Ye and Blissful Heaven Temple. But we understand…"
He walked toward Liu Ye as his eyes narrowed. The Sublime Dao Art of Heaven and Earth activated as a terrifying Dao aura appeared around Long Ming, giving off a powerful pressure,
" I don't know what sort of group is Second Prince's Literary Committee is…But the members were like you, I don't think it is anything good at all." Long Ming ridiculed.
" If I am a charlatan who sells vulgar pictures, what are you, Lie Ye? A hypocrite who wears the mask of righteousness?"
" Hahaha!"
Meng Zhi snorted as her pressure increased. She is someone at the Harmonization Realm after all.
" See these guests out. Our Eternal Spring Tower doesn't welcome them."
All of them snorted as they got disdained by Meng Zhi. Liu Ye was trembling as Long Ming's pressure enveloped him. He only saw Long Ming casually swatting his fan, and he injured a disciple of True Core Formation Realm to this degree.
" Hmph! I also don't want to remain in such a place."
Liu Ye snorted as he turned around to leave.
" Wait…" Long Ming spoke. " I admit you are a hypocrite. But, I didn't know you are shameless also. You couldn't give the answer to my question. Now, pay 1000 Mid grade spirit stones."
" Yo-You! Don't go too far!" Liu Ye's expression changed as he glared at Long Ming. Long Ming shrugged.
" Oh well, I guess I need to change the banners. I will draw on how righteous the Liu Family is. How great it is to not fulfill your promise when you lose a bet."
" Yo-You!!"
Liu ye trembled as his expression turned ugly. He waved his hands as spirit stones scattered on the ground. " Here, take this."
" Ayo, giving money away like that, I am sure Liu Family is pretty rich." Long Ming smiled as he squatted and picked up all the spirit stones.
[ Ding! Host completed the mission! Host gets 10x Random Treasure Chest!]
[ Ding! Constellation Harem King of Nine Realms approves your method!]
[ Ding! Gold Guarding Miser Dragon clicks his tongue. He says he will give tougher missions next time!]
Long Ming ignored everything as he saw the group of troublemakers foiling away. He looked at the people in the hall as he bowed.
" Well, I am sorry that all the guests had to see such uncouth thing. However, since the night is long, Let the auction continue!"
The Treasured Jade Brush flashed as the crane made by Long Ming scattered into smaller petals.
" Yes! Let's go!"
" Wait, What was the last price?
" 100 Mid grade spirit stones!"
" 200!"
" 300!"
After what happened, Long Ming used that to boost the price. However, currently, Long Ming's mind was occupied with many things. " Sister Meng, I guess I should take some rest."
Meng Zhi hurriedly nodded. " Of course! Who would have thought you will get sneak attacked? Are you injured somewhere?"
Long Ming laughed as he could see the stream of Fragrant Yin Qi coming from her body, " I am fine, Sister Meng. Just a little tired, I guess?"
" Fine, You should go and take rest." She nodded.
As Long Ming walked out, he felt someone grabbing his arm.
" Are you ok?"
Mu Qinglian looked at Long Ming as she asked in a soft voice. Long Ming was startled as he nodded. " I am alright. I just need some rest."
" Then come back with me."
" Wa-Wait!"
Before Long Ming could say anything, Mu Qinglian grabbed Long Ming as jumped on her flying sword. Without saying anything, the flaying sword burst forward.
" Wh-Whoa! Calm down, My lady!" Long Ming shouted hurriedly. " You are going too fast!"
" Hahaha, This is fast? Thenlet me show you the true speed." Mu Qinglian laughed as her flying sword's speed increased by three folds.
" AHHHHH!!!"
Long Ming's scream echoed across the sky as Mu Qinglian brought him back to her courtyard in Four Seasons Valley.
" Ahahisiukjaw…."
Long Ming's legs trembled as he fell to his knees. " Damn it, I thought I might die."
" Hoh, The young genius who swatted a True Core Formation cultivator is afraid of flying?" Mu Qinglian laughed. Long Ming glared at Mu Qinglian as as he scoffed.
" We could have come back with a leisure pace. Why you have to be in hurry?"
" Well? Because I was feeling tired. A young girl like me, I should take care of my body, yes?" Mu Qinglian chuckled.
" Anyway, I am really thankful for what you have done in Eternal Spring Tower." She smiled softly. " I was really going to intervene. But that would have led me exposing my power."
" Why? I thought Meng Zhi was enough to handle them." Long Ming asked. Mu Qinglian gave a chuckle. " Sister Meng is p powerful indeed. But sometimes, she would rather use her fist than her brain. Alsthough she appears to be a easy going, sometime, she becomes utterly stubborn."
" Then what about me?" Long Ming became interested. " What do you think of me?"
Mu Qinglian looked at him as she gave a light snort. " A jade faced cunning demon."
" Jade faced cunning demon?" Long Ming laughed as he understood the meaning behind such title. " If Lady Mu bestows me such title, I will naturally accept it."
" Good, You should take some rest." Mu Qinglian spoke. Long Ming paused as he looked at Mu Qinglian.
" Actually, Why do you let me sleep in your room? Like, why?"
Mu Qinglian looked at Long Ming as she laughed. " Don't you know? Four Season Valley is a women's sect? There are barely any male disciples, and all of them are Outer Sect disciples."
" They know that you are my guests." Mu Qinglian pursed her lips. " But they don't know that you are living here, inside the sect. I need to prepare an identity for you, you know? Otherwise a male living in my Mountain Flower Peak will create an uproar."
Long Ming's smile turned stiff as he looked at Mu Qinglian. " So, You are saying you are keeping me here illegally?"
" Yup."
" What will happen if I get caught?"
" Best case, Castration. Worst case, death." Mu Qinglian smiled.
Long Ming looked at the sky for a moment. After that, only a sigh came out of his mouth.
" Hehe, Don't worry. I won't let anything happen to you." Mu Qinglian giggled as she entered her room. " You can sleep in the second room."
" No, I have other things to do."
Long Ming spoke as he walked to the courtyard and sat in the garden.
' According to the talent testing orb, my Qi cultivation aptitude is worst. However, I can swat a True Core Formation Stage cultivator with my Fragrant Yin Qi and Plum Blossom Fan?'
' Unless, Fragrant Yin Qi is much more powerful than True Qi?' Long Ming calculated the amount of Fragrant Yin Qi consumed by his move as he took a deep breath.
" Let's see the extent of my power."
The Plum Blossom Fan got the ability to create powerful gust of winds. Long Ming consumed over ⅔ of his Fragrant Yin Qi.
Taking a step back his hands moved gracefully. The Plum Blossom Fan lit up with pinkish radiance as the blossoms scattered around Long Ming. After that, he waved the fan with all his power.
*WHOOOSHH!"
A pink whirlwind rose as it enveloped the entire garden. Mu Qinglian, whow as changing her clothes, rushed out as she felt the powerful aura..
*BOOM!*
The gust of wind blasted the trees and destroyed the walls, making the entire garden messy.
" Haah…"
Long Ming was in a awe as he saw the scene.
" Incredible!"
