”I am Bai He, a disciple of the underworld clan of the Heavenly Desolate Domain. I feel that you have the Purple Gold Divine Token that I have been pursuing for a long time in your possession, so I am extremely grateful that you have come to hand over the Purple Gold Divine Token.” Bai He cupped his fists in greeting, but didn't get up. Instead, he sat down on a chair with a proud expression on his face.

Hong Ling frowned, he looked at the Bai He River whose nose was facing the sky, and was unhappy in his heart. This Bai He, not only did he barge into the private room he had booked, he even spoke rudely and asked him to hand over the purple gold holy order. Did he really think he was that easy to handle? As for the so called underworld clan, in Hong Ling's opinion, it was only because the clan had a Spirit Refinement cultivator that they dared to be so arrogant. Hong Ling once again sat alone on the railing, the wine pot in his hands gently drank a mouthful of wine, closed his eyes and carefully savored the rich and good wine. He indulged himself, leaving Bai He and his three subordinates to the side. After a long time, when Bai He couldn't help but be on the verge of erupting, he finally exhaled a long breath of turbid alcohol.

”My apologies, but I have a Purple Gold Divine Token with me. I can't give it to you. Please leave on your own!” Hong Ling said without lifting his head, and when Bai He saw him like that, he suddenly stood up and slapped the table hard with his palm. Bang! The dishes and wine cups on the table were instantly sent flying by his palm and then fell.

Bai He's eyes flashed with anger and his face became incomparably cold. He gloomily said, ”You actually dare to mess with me? Do you know who I am? ”

”I don't care who you are, and I don't want to know who you are!” However, Hong Ling ignored him, and looked at the bustling crowd below, then looked at Canfeng, signalling him to make a move to chase him away.

”Canfeng, bring this Young Master White River and his three subordinates downstairs. I'm a bit tired, I need to rest for a while.”

”Yes, young master!” Hearing that, a tyrannical Qi exploded out from Canfeng's body, directly enveloping Bai He and his three subordinates. His tone was icy cold without a shred of emotion, and he casually stretched out his hand to stop Bai He who wanted to move forward.

”Young Master White River, there are still three people remaining. My family's young master is tired, please leave now!” He bowed respectfully, neither servile nor overbearing. However, the pressure he exuded was so oppressive that no one could breathe.

Bai He's three late stage Qi Refinement into Spirit s instantly paled. Suppressing the fear in their hearts, they joined hands to block Bai He, protecting him, and stared fixedly at Canfeng, their eyes filled with dread.

”Young master, quickly leave. This lord is a great cultivator that has yet to reach the Soul Refining stage. He is a great figure on the same level as the Patriarch!”

Bai He's complexion instantly changed. He originally thought that his name would be renowned throughout the world after coming out of the family. He didn't expect that the first time he was prepared to make a move, he would kick a metal board. He gritted his teeth as he led the three of them and quickly left. However, Hong Ling could feel the arrogance on his body. However, Hong Ling didn't want to make a move for the time being, because the people who would be the first to make a move, were usually helping others.

”Dammit, how could this guy have the protection of a great cultivator that can refine the spirit but is still hollow? He's simply cheating!” Bai He who was standing below the restaurant stared hatefully at Hong Ling who was leaning on the railing and tasting the fine wine, flames about to spew out of his eyes. At this moment, his heart was sour and bitter, he could not believe that his clan had only sent out three late stage Qi Refinement into Spirit s to act as his guards. However, the first youth he met had actually had a grand cultivator that was only at the Spirit Refinement realm to protect him. The huge difference between the two of them had caused Bai He to feel upset. Since when did a Spirit Refinement cultivator become a willing servant?

For a few days, people kept on looking for him, but they were all sent away by Hong Ling. Very quickly, after a careful inquiry, everyone came to know that the youth that lived in the Eternity Restaurant was precisely the person in charge of this year's Martial Competition. Amidst everyone's praises, they could not help but feel a deep jealousy towards Hong Ling. A youth who had the protection of a great spirit refining cultivator was truly too eye-catching. Even Young City Lord Lian Chengyu himself, who possessed Tianhuang City, did not receive such treatment. This made everyone even more curious about Hong Ling's birth. However, Hong Ling's life was just like a mystery, even his City Lord's Mansion was unable to detect any clues.

In the private room, in front of Hong Ling, a diamond shaped crystal the size of a lychee quietly floated. The milky-white Spiritual Power was currently being continuously extracted from within and pouring into Hong Ling's limbs and bones, being refined into a pure Authentic Qi by him. This was the low rank spirit stone that Hong Ling had obtained from the spatial rings of the four elders from the Four Major Sects. After all, Hong Ling had just broken through to Qi Refinement into Spirit not too long ago, and currently, he urgently needed to consolidate his own cultivation, so as to not be at a disadvantage during the Heaven Assembly Trial.

Kacha, the spirit stone in front of him shattered into a pile of powder and landed on the ground in front of him. With a thought, Hong Ling took out another spirit stone, and then refined the Spiritual Power inside it. One after another, the spirit stones turned into fine powder, and Hong Ling's cultivation began to slowly consolidate. Three days later, Hong Ling's spatial ring had been completely used up of over a thousand spirit stones. The young man exhaled a cloud of turbid white Qi, stood up, and brought Canfeng downstairs.
