Lin Xiao was stumped. He really didn't know whether he should be happy or not because he could be acquaintance with those powerful people.
The biggest problem was that if they decided to kill him, there was no doubt that he would be wounded terribly because he couldn't fight against them. What a joke, that Ye Jian was far above Golden Core Stage 3 and he was only at Foundation Establishment Stage.
It would already be good if he didn't die.
"This…"
"This is why at first I want to trap you inside that small lake. You're still too weak. Far too weak. If you go out, even a mere Golden Core Stage Cultivators can easily kill you with a swing of his hand."
Lin Xiao: "…" I can still run away as long as they're not above Golden Core Stage 2!
But it was also true that he was not one that could possibly survive should he go out to the entire world and flaunted his current status. Uh, most likely a lot of people would want him to die.
Seeing that everyone was still looking at him, Lin Xiao let out a faint laugh. "I'm… not supposed to go out of Sun Kingdom before I'm strong enough."
The others: "…" why don't you say it sooner?
"It should be fine now but maybe in the future I wouldn't go out of Sun Kingdom for a long time after we returned." Lin Xiao glanced at Prince Lin Yan.
Prince Lin Yan nodded. As much as he wanted Lin Xiao to grow much stronger, he had to consider the fact that he would need to have the ability to protect himself while they were traveling.
If they kept on meeting those monsters…
It was not training but suicide.
"Let's go to the next city and then we're going to train."
"Ok."
They all swiftly followed Prince Lin Yan to the next city. After they reported about the failure of the mission, they paid for the penalty and also heard that the carriage arrived alone. All three groups had failed.
When asked what had happened, Prince Lin Yan naturally refused to explain because it would take too much time. Besides, it was not something that majority of people should know so he simply said that they faced an enemy that was too strong and ran away.
After settling their mission, Prince Lin Yan led them to the similar underground bar once more.
Princess Lan Yi Hua was speechless. Was there so many illegal bases in her kingdom and yet she knew nothing?
"There are not in every places and only those near Sun Kingdom because there are often battles from the other side. After we're done visiting all the cities, we'll return back to Sun Kingdom and visit those from that side."
Lin Xiao: "…" that means there are also some at Sun Kingdom?
"Why are we not go to the ones at Sun Kingdom first?" Prince Lin San didn't understand why they have to pick the further one when there was one that was nearer.
"That's because I need to meet Hu Fei first."
"Oh…"
"Let's visit him. Your weapons should be done."
"Ok."
With the teleportation device that Prince Lin Yan had, they could reach Hu Family Mansion almost instantly. Of course, it was also a very expensive device that required several Low Grade Spirit Stones per use.
Only the wealthy one would burn their money to use it.
"Oh, you're finally back. How's your journey?" Hu Fei walked into the room and swept his gaze across them leisurely.
"So-so, where are the weapons?"
"Come with me."
They all followed Hu Fei to his work shop and noticed that there were already three swords on the table, a pair of twins sword and also a thin sword at the side.
Princess Lan Yi Hua and Prince Lin San hurriedly walked to their respective weapon. Picking it up, they could definitely sense that it was tailor made for them. They would be able to use it almost right away.
"How is it?" Hu Fei asked proudly when he saw them began to swing it around. "You can try to fight each other above."
Princess Lan Yi Hua and Prince Lin San looked at each other before they rushed over to the training room. They wanted to test the power of their new sword.
Hu Fei glanced at the other two. "There'll be treasure hunt soon, so I'll let you participate in it. Is that fine, Brother Yan?"
Prince Lin Yan nodded. "It's not a problem at all."
"Good. Keep your schedule clear…"
"I'm going around to train them."
"…Whatever."
Knowing Prince Lin Yan's method of training, Hu Fei merely passed a glance at the other two and shook his head. "For you to keep on betting their lives, what if something goes wrong?"
"Nothing will go wrong. If something like that did happen, I'll interfere."
So far, they all managed to kill their opponent successfully. Prince Lin Yan also made sure that they tasted the power of different type of cultivators and also those who used many types of weapon. This would allow them to have more experiences and knew how to contend them when they faced someone similar in the future.
"Tsk. You're always so confident."
Prince Lin Yan shrugged then turned to look at Lin Xiao. "You can train in the training room. We're most likely will be heading back and forth this mansion for some time."
"Ok."
Lin Xiao could see that Prince Lin Yan wanted some personal space. It seemed that the two of them became sworn brother for some reasons. Hmm, he was also thinking about that treasure hunt.
What kind of treasure hunt would that be?
He was interested to find out more about it when it was time.
Time passed swiftly and the next few weeks passed by just like that. Lin Xiao had started to think that the number of cities were endless when Prince Lin Yan finally stopped after the 13th week.
