Chapter - 553 Such Fate

At Bei Xuan Faction.

The sound of cheering and commendation filled the place the moment Chen Xiaobei kept his Ma Liang Divine Pen.

"Congratulations Faction Leader Chen for setting up a new faction in Dragon City! Here, I hope that your faction will grow exponentially!"

"Congratulations Faction Leader Chen… Bravo!"

"Actions always speaks louder than words! I propose that everyone prepare a gift for Leader Chen later to congratulate him for setting up Bei Xuan Faction!"

"That's right! A gift is a must!"

At this moment, the crowd's attitude towards Chen Xiaobei had changed completely. There was no one in the crowd that had the guts to go against him. Waves and waves of praise reflected the respect and admiration that the crowd had towards Chen Xiaobei. Standing beside the huge stone, Chen Xiaobei was indulging the attention that he got from the crowd.

As the first and only disciple of Bei Xuan Faction, Feng Qingyang received quite a number of compliments as well. Certainly, he was really proud of himself. Truth be told, being able to turn the tide was all thanks to the absolute power that Chen Xiaobei possessed!

'Take a step back and think about this. Without the Lightning Pool Formation, the ending would have been completely different! Also, all glory goes to the Red Envelope Group because that was where Chen Xiaobei acquired this item!"

"I should communicate and socialize with the members of Red Envelope more frequently after making sure everything is in place! My combat power was still rather weak and I really need to acquire more Spiritual Qi to make myself become stronger! I shall become the ruler of my own fate! Letting my Sifu down is a big no-no!"

Chen Xiaobei might look relaxed from the surface but he did not let that pride get to his head. On the contrary, he constantly reminded himself that he should not stop pursuing more power! Of course, he would never stop to find ways to increase his wealth as well!

"Everyone, please adjourn to the grand hall. As I promised all of you earlier, the auction shall proceed as usual!"

With that being said, Chen Xiaobei led the crowd to the grand hall personally. The crowd was extremely thrilled after hearing Chen Xiaobei's announcement. Originally, they came here with the purpose of purchasing martial arts manuals. The unexpected incident that happened earlier had caused them to doubt that the martial art manuals auction was something that Chen Xiaobei made up to trick them.

Now that it was proven true, the crowd was more than happy to follow Chen Xiaobei to the grand hall. Needless to say, the auction went by smoothly. However, there were three people who left the place without anyone noticing them. One of them was Li Xiang. Considering that he was stuck in his true form of a blood descendant, he had to look for a hidden place to transform himself back to normal looking human being – it would avoid unnecessary troubles as well.

The rest of the two people that left the place were two ladies.

"My lady, why are we leaving so early? Qiao'er wants to watch little bro's auction!"

Qiao'er pouted – dissatisfied.

"I don't feel so good. So, I want to head back to get some rest."

"Not feeling well? But, you are smiling!"

Qiao'er tilted her head – baffled.

"How did you know that I'm smiling? My mask is not even off..."

Surprised, the masked lady thought that her servant possessed a pair of eyes that could see through objects.

"I grew up together with you, my lady. By listening to your voice, I can tell your current mood! If I'm not mistaken, your face is flushed! Tell me quick! Something good must have happened! It has been a long time since the last time you smiled!"

"What… What kind of good things could have happened to me? You are not a psychic! So, stop making wild guesses!"

"It's totally okay if you don't want to admit it… I have just read your mind!"

"Tell me then. What was I thinking?"

"*Cough* I think you are interested in that little bro!" Qiao'er stated in a serious tone, after clearing her throat.

"Nonsense! I don't even know him!"

"Well, love at first sight could happen even if you don't know him! His name is Chen Xiaobei and your name is Liu Xuanxin. Surprisingly, he just named his faction Bei Xuan! 'Bei' and 'Xuan'! Can you see it? It's fate. If I'm not mistaken, that's what made you smile!"

"Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! You guessed it all wrong! Uhm..."

Instantly, the masked lady denied all of Qiao'er's assumptions. Seconds later, she let out a yelp.

"My lady! Are you alright?"

Feeling nervous, Qiao'er quickly went and supported the masked lady.

"My stubborn illness is coming back… Send me home immediately…" said the masked lady, who seemed to be in much pain. Considering that she just recovered from her illness, her body was still rather weak. The fact that she went through an emotional roller coaster was enough to cause a relapse. Plus, there were a few times that she channeled True Qi to her body to get ready to assist Chen Xiaobei. Though she did not actually fight, the risk of her illness returning was greatly increased!

"Fret not my lady! I will take you home safely!"

Qiao'er might be young but she possessed a certain level of cultivation. Immediately, she carried Liu Xuanxin on her back and started to run home effortlessly.

...

At Xuanjian Faction.

There were few doctors worked together to slow down Liu Xuanxin's illness in her room. Feeling worried and anxious, Liu Chunyi paced outside her room. Having offended Elder Luo, he was forced to hire other doctors to treat his sister. Though all those doctors were pretty reputable in Dragon City, their medicinal skill still could not compare to Elder Luo's. An hour passed and Liu Xuanxin's condition was not improving.

Suddenly, an old doctor ran out of the room and spoke in a nervous tone.

"Master Liu, Lady Liu's condition is just too weird! There is nothing we can do about it! I think you should look for other doctors with better medicinal skills to treat her! If not, she might lose her life anytime soon!"

"Bunch of trash! Get lost!"

Liu Chunyi roared. He then channeled energy to his body and ran to the mountain that was located at the back of Xuanjian Faction. This was the forbidden ground of Xuanjian Faction. A seven-story pagoda laid there under the moon. With a somber atmosphere surrounding the area, no ordinary person would dare to get close to this place.

Beneath the pagoda was the main area of Xuanjian Mountain. All the Spiritual Qi from the mountain had to go through this spot. The size of this spot was hundreds of times larger than Hundred Beast Mountain's! Naturally, the Spiritual Qi was more concentrated, purer, and richer! The ancestors of Xuanjian Faction were wise enough to occupy this place and build a formation to gather Spiritual Qi for their future disciples.

The reason Liu Chunyi was known as the most powerful prodigy was due to his great talent and being able to train at this huge spiritual pulse! Of course, the rumor of Liu Chunyi as the powerful elite in Jianghu was not entirely true. When it came to cultivation, Liu Xuanxin was more powerful! Unfortunately, she was afflicted by some kind of strange condition. No one knew how powerful she was when she could not showcase her martial arts.

However, Liu Xuanxin had another secret! There were only two people on this earth knew about this secret!

"Grandpa… I have something to inform you…"

Standing at the entrance of the pagoda, Liu Chunyi bowed and said politely. A hoarse voice could be heard before the door was opened.

"What kind of thing is so important that you have to interrupt my training? Don't you know that I'm using all my might to achieve the Pinnacle Phase of True Nirvana Stage?"

The person that was talking to Liu Chunyi was none other than Liu Xiyuan!
