Chapter 2278 Nanyue Empire

“You bastard, how dare you hit Young Master? Do you know who Young Master is?”

Just as the teleportation was completed, Zhu Mingying rushed back.

Jiang Fangzhou’s slaps were truly not light; at this moment, his head was swollen like a pig’s.

As a pampered Young Master since childhood, he had never suffered such humiliation. At this moment, his eyes were spitting fire with rage.

“Where are they? Where are they?”

Zhu Mingying looked around, unable to find Ye Bufan and the others. He glared at the nearby staff member.

“You teleported them away?”

The staff member nodded, “Yes, the teleportation has been completed. You’ll have to wait until tomorrow.”

Zhu Mingying immediately flew into a rage, “Bastard, who told you to send them away?!”

The staff member had lost his patience, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared.

“I am from Jubao Pavilion, so of course Jubao Pavilion told me to send them away!”

His words were soft yet firm, reminding the other party what kind of place this was and that it wasn’t somewhere just anyone could cause trouble.

Indeed, the furious Zhu Mingying immediately calmed down a lot.

He could throw his weight around as a Young Master here, but he dared not do anything too outrageous.

After all, Jubao Pavilion was the largest business association in the entire Kunlun Continent, with extremely strong power. Not to mention him, even his Family couldn’t afford to offend them.

“No, I’m going to settle accounts with those boys. You must send me over now!”

Zhu Mingying dared not cause trouble here, but he still had a belly full of anger and wished he could immediately rush back to Tianqiong State to settle accounts with Ye Bufan.

The staff member said indifferently, “The small teleportation array has been used three times today and cannot be activated.

If Young Master is truly in a hurry, then use the large teleportation array. It costs one hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones per use.”

“Uh…”

Hearing one hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones, Zhu Mingying also felt a pang of pain, but thinking of the humiliation he had suffered, he finally gritted his teeth and shouted, “I’ll pay!”

According to his thoughts, although he would spend a large sum of Spirit Stones, as long as he caught Ye Bufan and the others, he could get his revenge.

Moreover, since the other party could use the teleportation array, they must have some Family assets. Perhaps he could even rob a large sum of money and make up for his losses.

Thinking of this, he took out his Storage Ring and began to count his Spirit Stones.

He was here on behalf of his Family this time, but even with all the Family’s money combined, he only had ninety-nine thousand, still short of one thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones.

A guard next to him said, “Young Master, why don’t we wait?

It’s not too late to go back tomorrow…”

“Bullshit! If we go back tomorrow, what if those boys run away? It’s all your fault, you useless bunch, completely useless at critical moments.”

Zhu Mingying angrily shouted, “Take out all the Spirit Stones on you.”

Thinking that they couldn’t even block a single move from the opponent, the few guards also looked ashamed.

They lowered their heads and took out all their Spirit Stones. The five of them together barely managed to gather one hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones.

The staff member collected the money and did his job. After collecting the Spirit Stones, he activated the large teleportation array and sent Zhu Mingying and the five others away.

Ye Bufan and the others were quickly teleported to Tianqiong State. Stepping out of the teleportation array, they felt the surrounding Spiritual Qi, which was indeed much richer than in Tianluo State.

In the Cultivation World, at its root, Spiritual Qi is the foundation of strength. Where Spiritual Qi is rich, naturally more powerful Cultivators emerge.

He opened the map Luo Yudie gave him. The teleportation array was located in the Nanyue Empire. This was not the strongest location in Tianqiong State, but it was the very center of the entire continent.

Like the Daxing Empire, this place was very remote, about a thousand miles from the nearest Jinma City.

After figuring everything out, he was about to lead them away when another energy fluctuation came from behind him.

Everyone turned to look, only to see the large teleportation array glowing brightly, followed by Zhu Mingying and the five others being teleported over.

A smile played on Ye Bufan’s lips. It seemed this profligate Young Master was truly rich, willing to burn one hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones just to chase after him.

He couldn’t be bothered with such a person. He signaled everyone to board the Nine Heavens and flew directly towards Jinma City.

As Zhu Mingying stepped out of the teleportation array, his small eyes immediately searched around, just in time to see Ye Bufan and the others leaving.

“You bastard, you still managed to run, but since you’ve come to Tianqiong State, you won’t escape Young Master’s grasp.”

Seeing everyone riding the Nine Heavens, his heart immediately burned with desire. Putting everything else aside, just this Low Grade Flying Spiritual Artifact alone was worth a fortune.

If he dealt with this brat, he could not only get his revenge but also make a hefty profit, perhaps even more than one hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones.

Saying this, he pulled out a communication jade slip and sent out a message.

“Big Brother, a few bumpkins from Tianluo State dared to provoke me and ran to Jinma City. Bring people and intercept them in Jinma City immediately…”

Although Tianqiong State was not the strongest among the five states, it had a great advantage over the Spiritual Qi-poor Tianluo State.

Because of this, Cultivators from here often felt superior when they met people from Tianluo State.

(End of this chapter, please turn the page)

In Zhu Mingying’s view, since Ye Bufan and the others had come to Tianqiong State, they were like meat on his chopping block, with absolutely no chance of escape.

After sending the message, a sinister smile appeared on his face: “Boys, just you wait and see how Young Master deals with you!”

With that, he waved his hand, and with the four guards behind him, he rose into the air and also flew towards Jinma City, though their speed was much slower than the Nine Heavens.

In Jinma City, in the Zhu Family’s residence, Da Shao Zhu Mingcong sat in the backyard, leisurely sipping fragrant tea, with two beautiful maids massaging his legs.

Suddenly, his expression changed, and he took out a communication jade slip, receiving the message from Zhu Mingying.

“Alright, you can all go down!”

Zhu Mingcong pulled back his legs, dismissed the two maids, and turned to wave at the head guard next to him, “Gather some men and also find Grand Elder. We’re going out to do something.”

The head guard said, “Da Shao, has something happened?”

“A few ignorant fellows from Tianluo State provoked Second Young Master and ran to Jinma City. We’re going to teach these bumpkins a lesson!”

“Bumpkins from Tianluo State, coming to our Tianqiong State and still not knowing how to behave themselves, truly seeking death!”

Hearing that it was someone from Tianluo State, even the head guard felt a strong sense of superiority.

“Da Shao, since we’re just teaching a few bumpkins a lesson, there’s no need to invite Grand Elder, is there? We’re enough.”

Zhu Mingcong said, “Better safe than sorry. Second Young Master said those guys have some skill, so it’s better to call Grand Elder, just in case.”

“Understood, Da Shao!”

The head guard turned and ran out, soon returning with a middle-aged man in black from outside.

He was Elder Wang, the chief enshrinement of the Zhu Family, a Body Integration Middle Stage powerhouse.

That’s right, he was a Body Integration Middle Stage. Although Tianqiong State was stronger than Tianluo State, it wasn’t filled with powerhouses everywhere.

The Nanyue Empire was not the strongest to begin with, Tianma City was just a small city, and the Zhu Family was a second-rate Family in this city.

Considering all this, it was not surprising that the strongest Elder enshrinement of the Zhu Family was only at the Body Integration Middle Stage.

But even so, it did not diminish Da Shao Zhu Mingcong’s sense of superiority.

He casually waved his hand and said proudly, “Let’s go, we’ll wait for those ignorant fellows at the city gate!”

Those behind him, hearing that they were going to deal with a bumpkin from Tianluo State, were all full of arrogance, not taking it seriously at all, completely unaware of what kind of existence they were about to face.
