Chapter 745: Young Noble Pei Yu (2/2)

The second was about surpassing the life reduction. Only by defeating this tribulation would one become a real master.

There were two kinds of life reduction. One was before the Heavenly King realm. The most direct type of life reduction at this level was death. It might not even carry a tribulation because you would be too weak for it to even be summoned, you would simply just die.

The other was at the Heavenly King realm. No matter how young the cultivator might be, if they wanted to break the chains of this realm, they had to face their life reduction. Without surpassing it, they would certainly die.

The young noble, at his age, had already surpassed his life reduction. This was like a rebirth for cultivators, allowing their lifespan and blood energy to be even more vibrant, like the rising sun at dawn.

To be able to become a Life King and defeat the life reduction at such an age… Even if Young Noble Pei Yu was lesser than Ye Qingcheng or Mei Aonan, this was still enough to make him proud.

Someone immediately noticed that the young noble was going towards Li Qiye’s abode and said: “That place, isn’t that the human brat Li Qiye’s place?”

“Young Noble Pei Yu wants to take care of Li Qiye since several big characters from the Crystallized Sea Sect, such as the Alchemy Saint, all died at Allpine Mountain. The most likely scenario is that the young noble is placing the blame on Li Qiye.” Someone speculated.

Many big shots from the sea sect were killed at Allpine Mountain. However, many outsiders thought that Li Qiye alone couldn’t kill so many important people from the sea sect and the ravine. The only explanation was that the Allpine Treefather secretly lent him a hand.

“Not necessarily, maybe the young noble is here to find Fairy Yuan.” An important character from the Alchemy Realm guessed.

The young noble liking Fairy Yuan was no secret in this domain. Not long ago, he had confessed to her in front of many people. However, she didn’t share the same sentiment. Later on, he chased after her all the way to the Serene Garden. She didn’t want to see him, so he caused quite a commotion at the garden.

The fiasco eventually caused a Serene Garden Ancestor to come out. Afterward, an important character from the Crystallized Sea Sect came to apologize and temporarily calm this storm.

The young noble stepped onto Li Qiye’s mountain with his blood energy still radiating outward. As a Life King who had surpassed his life reduction, his mighty blood energy could shake the entire mountain.

It was tough for Li Qiye’s group to not notice when the young noble’s aura was so aggressive.

“Young Noble Pei Yu…” The madam who was also a Heavenly King changed her expression after seeing the young noble descending from the sky. She was wary of him not because he was already a Life King, but because he had the Heaven’s Will Crystal Physique!

As for Li Qiye, he was still as leisurely as ever and only gave the young noble a glance without a care.

“Sister Yuan, it has been a while.” The young noble’s gaze fell upon Yuan Caihe and couldn’t shift away. In his eyes, there was only Yuan Caihe, others did not matter.

They were not from the same sect. However, both of them were cultivators, so he considered himself as the big brother so that he could be even closer to Yuan Caihe.

“Brother Pei Yu, long time no see.” Yuan Caihe only gently nodded and revealed a distant look. She was a quiet person by nature and didn’t compete with others. Nevertheless, when Young Noble Pei Yu made a big scene at the Serene Garden that almost caused the two sects to fight, it would only be natural for Yuan Caihe to not be fond of him at all.

“Sister Yuan, the wind has been strange lately; it’s dangerous and unpredictable.” Young Noble Pei Yu looked at her and said: “I am very worried about your safety. How about you come with me to Alchemy City? I can ensure your safety during this period of unrest.”

“Brother Pei Yu needlessly worries.” Yuan Caihe shook her head and lightly responded: “I am very safe with Brother Li!” 4

After hearing this, Pei Yu’s eyes immediately turned cold like an eagle that instantly targeted Li Qiye. His fierce eyes were ruthless, making it seem like he was stalking his prey.

“So you are Li Qiye.” Pei Yu coldly said with murderous intent flashing in his eyes.

At this point, many people came to watch the fun from far away. Even though they were very far from Pei Yu, they could still sense his bloodlust.

In fact, he made no attempt of hiding his blatant murderous intent.

1. Pei Yu = Jade Wearer.

2. Jing Yu = Starjade. Starjade Immortal Emperor

3. The raw for this was 3 to 5 quarters of an hour — around 45 to 75 minutes, so I changed it to around an hour. Just something that sounds weird if translated literally.

4. Yuan Caihe’s “brothers” here are different. The one used for Li Qiye symbolizes their close relationship and is more casual/friendly while the “brother” for Pei Yu is because they are both cultivators, like dao brother in a formal manner. People who also read World of Cultivation should know ge, shes uses ge for Li Qiye.
