Chapter 254: Before the Celebration

Edited by Lord Immortal

From this day on, Lin Xun devoted himself to practice without caring about other things.

Many practitioners who went to the Commune of Spiritual Tattooists for Master Xun found out that he did not appear again. He usually took several tasks every day, but now he had vanished suddenly.

This made many practitioners disappointed. They thought that Master Xun had left the Commune of Spiritual Tattooists so there was no hope of entrusting any task to him.

Some practitioners were unwilling to accept this and strongly urged the Commune of Spiritual Tattooists to invite Master Xun back, which made Chu Feng feel helpless.

Of course, Chu Feng hoped Lin Xun could always work in the Commune of Spiritual Tattooists, but it was obviously impossible for him to do so.

Even though Lin Xun did not leave the commune completely, Chu Feng knew clearly that Lin Xun was young and full of potential. Such a talented boy could not be retained by any commune at all.

Chu Feng was also very happy about this. Of course, he hoped that Lin Xun could become stronger and stronger. Only in this way could Lin solve his difficult problems when he had something to ask for.

Chu Feng admitted that he established a relationship with Lin Xun for other motivation at first, but over their interactions, he had regarded Lin Xun as a sincere friend.

He sometimes thought that it wouldn’t matter even if Lin Xun could not help him later.

It was enough for him to do his best and abide by his destiny.

In the courtyard, Shue Jin smiled and chatted with Chirps with a glass full of alcohol and spirits.

To Shue Jin’s surprise, Chirps was obviously covetous but eventually shook its head and refused. Its dark eyes were full of yearning but also determination.

Shue Jin couldn’t help laughing. He secretly praised Chirps for his obedience. Lin Xun had advised him only twice to not drink, and he dared not drink anymore.

“How could Lin Xun make such a spiritual beast like you follow him all the time without reluctance? God is really blind.”

Shue Jin muttered and glanced at Lin Xun’s room.

Unlike in the past, Lin Xun’s room was surrounded by vague and obscure fluctuations of power flow. It seemed very mysterious.

This was the simplest kind of Assembling Spirit Formation that was based on high-ranking spiritual stones and could gather the spiritual power from the world for practitioners.

Generally, although Assembling Spirit Formation was not complex, it wasn’t simple spiritual patterns. Only the powerful forces with a large number of materials would invite the spiritual tattooist to arrange the Assembling Spirit Formation for their family needs.

When the Assembling Spirit Formation worked, it would cost at least ten high-ranking spiritual stones a day, which was a huge expense that ordinary practitioners could not afford.

The reason why Lin Xu made this formation was not that he had a lot of money to spend. At the beginning of his practice, he had operated Nature-insight & Spirit-devouring Scripture and Windstorm Millstones to refine the power of Cloud-gang & Purple-spirit Pill. It immediately caused a stir in the whole courtyard like the roar of wind and thunder.

Shue Jin was shocked at once. When he learned that it was caused by Lin Xun’s practice, he felt a little strange in his heart. It was certainly not a normal scripture judging from Lin Xun’s practice.

Out of a kind of protection, Shue Jin advised Lin Xun to use Assembling Spirit Formation when practicing. It could not only cover up the effects generated during the practice but at the same time, it could also gather formation spirits to practice better.

This was very common in powerful forces. Some practitioners even dug a basement in the home and arranged several Assembling Spirit Formations to concentrate on practice that could not be spied upon.

After all, practitioners were the least defensive during their practice. In case they were assassinated by the enemy at that time, the consequences would be hard to bear.

Shue Jin wondered which Pond of Spiritual Power Lin Xun had that he could bear so many days of practice.

Shue Jin calculated that Lin Xun had practiced for more than twenty days at home. The Assembling Spirit Formation was running all the time and never stopped at all.

This was too rare. Practice time was limited for practitioners. When the spiritual power exceeded the limit that the body could bear, if they practiced again, they would either go mad or die.

For the Human-gang practitioners, even if they had the first-class Pond of Spiritual Power and extraordinary talent of practicing, few of them could keep practicing for more than twenty days without stopping.

Shue Jin stayed in the courtyard and witnessed all of this. He knew that Lin Xun’s potential for cultivation was abnormal.

For this reason, he seemed calm on the surface, but in fact, he was shocked in his heart. He worried that Lin Xun would meet a counter-attack after practicing so hard.

“Anyway, this kid is as cunning as a veteran, and he has a steadfast will. I think he certainly knows the consequences of haste and would not do anything bad to himself.”

Shue Jin muttered to himself and shook his head.

For Lin Xun, his life, isolated from the world, was quiet without any disturbance.

But in today’s Mist City, there was a great event that attracted the attention of the whole city: the centennial celebration of Keystone Business would soon be held.

Keystone Business spent a lot for this ceremony. It was said that at the day of the celebration, the top figures of the city’s powerful forces would all attend as promised such as Liu Wujun (the governor of the Southwestern Province), Wei Lingzhen (the president of Mist College), Du Dongtu (the leader of Ziling Army).

Each of them was a giant with the huge power of overturning the weather. They were not only famous in Mist City but also popular in all Southwestern Province.

From these distinguished guests, people could see how much Keystone Business had spent on the celebration. This was not just a matter of money.

By the way, the most enjoyable and hopeful thing was that Liu Qingyan would also attend this celebration. She was well-known throughout the world with her beautiful songs. She was enthusiastically pursued by the younger generation of the empire.

It could be imagined that such a magnificent and unprecedented gathering of famous people would cause a great sensation in Mist City.

With the celebration nearing, this atmosphere had become more and more popular in the streets and lanes, restaurants and tea shops. The topic of the celebration was everywhere.

Of course, Liu Qingyan was the most talked about.

This might be the celebrity effect. Liu Qingyan’s name was just like the brightest star in the night sky. Once she appeared, she would attract countless eyes.

Unfortunately, Lin Xun was unaware of this upcoming grand event, even if it caused a huge sensation outside.

In his mind, there was a more important matter. That is, to meet the challenge of the third pass of Green-cloud Path in the Heaven-accessing Place.

Green-tea Pavilion.

Liu Qingyan sat at her desk, her sleek white elbows supporting her chin lazily.

On the table was a sheet of snow-white paper with a line of meaningful and elegant handwriting. This was a new poem she had recently filled in for a piece of music. It was, however, not yet completed.

The youth was perishable, the path of cultivation arduous.

I made a thousand turns to search for the truth.

In the end, there was no way to live longer, leaving the graves of the heroes.

The white hair withered like flowers and everything became empty.

To whom could I tell my loneliness?

Liu Qingyan murmured lightly. Her starry eyes were blurred and illusory, and there was a trace of sadness between her bright eyebrows.

Granny Wind heard the words as she stood by Liu Qingyan’s side. She couldn’t help the tremors in her heart. In an instant, she had lots of thoughts and signs. The path of cultivation was so cruel and time flew so fast; the truth was too vague to find even if they grew old. At last, everything might be for nothing.

She did not expect that her young lady would be so sentimental.

“Are these the lyrics for a new song?”

Granny Wind couldn’t help asking.

Liu Qingyan shook her head and smiled slightly, “Granny, if I sing such a sad song at the Keystone Business celebration, I’m afraid it would upset many people.”

Granny Wind snorted coldly, “Miss, you don’t have to pay any attention to this. It was they who invited you to come. How dare they find fault with you?”

Liu Qingyan’s lustrous cherry lips nibbled at her pen, and she suddenly asked, “Granny, is there any news from Mr. Lin?”

At the mention of Lin Xun, Granny Wind’s face became gloomy as she spat, “How can this bastard give back the restored Ancient-rhythm Ocarina so easily! But don’t worry, Miss. I’ll look for an opportunity and personally visit Master Xun.”

Liu Qingyan quickly dissuaded, “I am not in a hurry, Granny. Don’t trouble Childe Lin. The thing that happened in the arena made me feel very sorry for him.”

Before Granny Wind could open her mouth, she turned to another question, “Will Childe Lin attend the celebration of Keystone Business?”

Granny Wind narrowed her eyes with caution, “Miss, that boy is not a good one.”

Liu Qingyan helplessly stopped Granny Wind’s words, “Granny, you think too much. Lin Xun is helping me a lot in restoring the Ancient-rhythm Ocarina, but he also had to duel with Huang Jianchen because of a fight in my guest room. I’m really sorry for that so I want to compensate him.”

Granny Wind announced, “Miss, you don’t need to do so. From what I know, Keystone Business has sent an invitation letter to Master Xun. I think Master Xun will surely take Lin Xun with him to the celebration.”

Liu Qingyan said with her thankful starry eyes, “Nice. Since Lin Xun knows so much about the Ancient-rhythm Ocarina, he must also know some music theory. I wonder what comment will he make on my performance.”

Granny Wind suddenly became alert. When she wanted to say something, she saw Liu Qingyan fill in the lyrics carefully again so she dropped the topic. But in her heart, Lin Xun was now on the blacklist who should be kept away from Miss.

A few days later, in the early morning, the whole Mist City seemed to wake up from a deep sleep and gradually became lively.

In front of the magnificent building of Keystone Business, a crowd was already gathered. Many people had been waiting here since last night.

The reason was simple: today was the beginning of the centennial celebration of Keystone Business. Many distinguished guests and Miss Liu Qingyan would come together.

What a grand scene it would be.

People were looking forward to it.
