Chapter 1474 - 1469: A Sardonic Remark (Part 2)

Two hours later, Zhu Ying walked out of the bathroom looking exhausted.

A while after, Lin Xi came out as well.

His expression really was relaxed and refreshed.

What can you do!

The fire in his body was way too strong.

Mainly because of the Xuanyuan Divine Dragon Cultivation Technique.

You could say, the Xuanyuan Divine Dragon Cultivation Technique absolutely counted as the most badass Divine Level Cultivation Technique.

It just had one flaw.

Which was that the body of the cultivator would become overly saturated with yang.

Too much, and that came with some downsides.

Like, overheating.

So you had to find a way to vent it.

Cooling off, cold showers and all that, completely useless.

This was also the key reason why Lin Xi was so terrifyingly strong in that particular area.

Otherwise, without a way to balance it, he might’ve already been burned to death.

Like spontaneous combustion.

Of course that’s an exaggeration.

For Lin Xi, it wasn’t like he had no way to reduce the fire, but those methods were complicated and time-consuming.

The current method was hands-down the best way.

And the feeling? Absolutely off the charts.

Plus, this kind of thing was hugely beneficial to his women.

Take Zhu Ying right in front of him—she looked really tired now, but once she rested, her whole person would definitely become several times more radiant.

At the same time, it could also speed up their cultivation a lot.

That’s the effect brought by the Xuanyuan Divine Dragon Cultivation Technique!

Maybe it was his inner energy driving things.

Even Lin Xi himself got some extra benefits out of it.

You had to know he was now at Innate mid stage, while Zhu Ying was only a top-tier special forces soldier.

So he was still pretty awestruck by the mysteries of life.

Always had this urge to probe deeper.

And could feel that endless sense of mystery.

He had the hotel send up some food; the two of them replenished the energy their bodies needed, then headed straight for the Lin family.

The Lin family!

One of the oldest clans in Beijing, and also one of the top-tier families.

In ordinary people’s eyes, that meant extreme wealth and influence.

In Lin Xi’s view, that was a symbol of strength.

Because compared to the Lin family, the national top ten families were still quite a ways behind in terms of real power.

And among those ten families, many had three Innate experts, and at least one Innate mid-stage powerhouse.

Even more than three, in some cases.

From that you could deduce, the Lin family definitely had more than just three Innate experts.

And Innate mid-stage? For sure more than one.

Otherwise they’d never be able to hold down their turf in Beijing.

Beijing was a blessed land.

Don’t look at the environment and air quality—those were pretty mediocre.

But underneath, the heritage was deep as hell.

Besides, who could guarantee Beijing didn’t have any Secret Realm or whatever.

If there were no Secret Realms, how could the top families in Beijing have that many experts?

Lin Xi had no idea how many experts they had.

Nor what level all their experts were at.

But clearly, they definitely had them.

Otherwise how would they be one of the most badass clans in the country.

So they absolutely possessed some way of manufacturing experts.

And in this era, manufacturing experts basically meant Secret Realms.

Otherwise, no matter how hard you cultivated, you’d only reach Peak Soldier King.

Below Peak Soldier King, breaking through further was insanely hard.

Just like that Half-step Innate guy Lin Xi met back in Hong Kong.

He’d actually seen it—this guy’s talent was terrifying.

But he was already that old and still stuck at Half-step Innate, unable to break through, all because he lacked Spiritual Qi.

If you threw him into a Secret Realm for a few years, he’d definitely be able to break through to Innate.

Unfortunately, he was just a background-less expert.

In Beijing.

The two of them were staying in the most bustling city center, with super convenient transportation.

At first they planned to grab a taxi, but after thinking about it, they gave up on that idea.

In the end, the transport they chose was the subway.’

Yep, the people’s favorite form of transportation.

Fast, and not hot.

Crowded? Well, that’s just how it is.

Luckily, they set out a little after four.

Plus it was the weekend, and the area they were heading to had fewer people compared to other places.

After all, it was a high-end district.

If your after-tax income hadn’t broken twenty grand, you basically couldn’t afford to live there.

And everyone over there probably owned cars.

So after a few stops, the subway car was almost empty.

When they first got on, it hadn’t been that crowded either.

Once they reached the station, the two got off.

No one tried anything on the train.

Seemed like people in Beijing were pretty decent quality-wise.

Or, maybe they’d just gotten lucky.

Or maybe, in a place like Beijing, nobody dared commit crimes in public.

There was this saying that had been popular a while back: "If you don’t seek death, you won’t die, right?"

The meaning was simple!

If you don’t go looking for death, you’ll still die anyway!

So if you go seeking death, aren’t you just going to die faster?

All the way, they couldn’t block out everyone’s gaze.

Just like on the plane, people all felt it was a flower stuck in a pile of cow shit.

On this, Lin Xi could only silently complain in his heart: you shallow, ignorant pieces of trash.

Me, Lin Xi?

Cow shit?

What a joke!

Lin Xi was absolutely the successor of socialism.

Absolutely the most badass young man in this world.

Not worthy of someone?

Quit joking!

If anything, it was a question of whether women were worthy of him.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have a scoring system for women.

Below an eight out of ten, he wasn’t interested at all.

And six to eight, for ordinary people, that was already goddess-tier.

The kind they could only worship from afar, never actually obtain.

Above eight, unless you had heaven-defying luck, you’d never even see that kind of woman.

Zhu Ying’s face was red the whole way.

She herself didn’t know why.

When she went out alone before, plenty of people looked at her.

But never this many.

Could it be that little chick Yan Xia had been right a while back?

That they’d gotten prettier?

That after doing that with Lin Xi, they’d all become prettier?

The legend was real?

A woman who’d been moist~~?:{[nourished was absolutely on a different level from a woman who hadn’t!

Seriously though!

She silently muttered to herself.

Because she’d also noticed her skin really had gotten a lot better.

More rosy and more glossy.

After exiting the station, they still hadn’t arrived yet.

According to the address Gu Long had sent over, they still needed to go another two to three kilometers.

No wait, take a bus.

Looked like he’d used Amap.

Lin Xi and Zhu Ying obviously weren’t going to take a bus or walk over.

That would drop their level way too much.

It’s not like they couldn’t afford a cab.

Yup, open the app and call a luxury car.

Even if it was only two or three kilometers.

As the car drove toward their destination.

The two of them could clearly see that this area had a lot of ancient-style buildings.

Newly built ones were relatively rare.

No wonder rent here was insanely high.

He’d looked into it before; seemed like everything was over ten grand.

And even with over ten grand you’d only get a single room or something.

Bathroom? Sorry, that was shared.

No group renting or anything like that.

If there were, that would just tank the class of the place.

The second landlords and landlords didn’t chop up the living rooms either.

Seemed like people here still retained a sliver of dignity and refused to bend for five buckets of rice.

That was other people’s take.

Lin Xi just gave it a "heh-heh."
