Meditation Pavilion!

"Sister, how long do you think it will take you to break through to Grade Nine Martial Disciple?" Seeing Yu Saiqi who was happily accepting the Pei-Yuan Dan, and thinking about the Pei-Yuan Dan's powerful support to the breakthrough of the Martial Disciple Realm, Yu Haoran asked.

"If the Pei-Yuan Dan really has the supplementary effect you mentioned, at most, I can break through to Grade Nine Martial Disciple by noon tomorrow." After carefully calculating his own cultivation speed and the effects of the Pei-Yuan Dan, Yu Saiqi responded.

"Sure!" Nodding, Yu Haoran indicated that he already knew.

Soon after, he solemnly warned, "Sis, it's the same as when you broke through to Martial Disciple Grade Eight. When you break through to Martial Disciple Grade Nine, you must notify me."

"Got it!" Nodding his head, Yu Saiqi knew what he meant.

Afterwards, she accompanied Yu Haoran out of the bedroom, and then headed straight for the meditation pavilion's unique training room.

Looking at Yu Saiqi who was rus.h.i.+ng off to cultivate, Yu Haoran knew what she had done recently. Even though it moved her a lot, it also brought her a lot of pressure.

After all, she was the older sister, so she should be the one taking care of him.

But now!

The whole relations.h.i.+p seemed to be reversed. He was like an older brother, but she was more like a younger sister.

When Yu Saiqi entered the training room, Yu Haoran did not rush to leave the Meditation Pavilion. Instead, she looked at a willow tree in the courtyard that was about the size of a bowl, and said indifferently: "Come out!"

"This subordinate greets the junior family head!"

Following Yu Haoran's voice, a figure appeared in front of him like a gust of wind.

"That's right!" Looking at Lin Yun whose aura had been suppressed and whose eyes were stern, Yu Haoran nodded his head as he praised him.

Although the complete version of the Gale-Wind Heart Technique could help Lin Yun cultivate faster, to be able to break through the level of a martial master so quickly and reach the level of restraining his aura and having his elemental energy become rich, it was sufficient to say that his talent in cultivation was extraordinary.

"I was able to break through to the Martial Master realm all thanks to the nurturing of the junior clan leader!" Lin Yun who had improved in cultivation did not have any arrogance, and remained respectful to Yu Haoran.

Actually, after accepting the conditions that Yu Haoran offered and reading through the complete version of the Gale Mantra that he had given, although Lin Yun was shocked by the completeness of the Gale Mantra, he had yet to truly experience the effects of the complete version.

Only when he made use of the complete version of the Gale mental cultivation method to break through to Martial Master did he truly feel the great difference between a good or bad cultivation technique and a bad one. The difference between the two was like heaven and earth.

At this moment, even though he was only a Grade 1 Martial Master, he was confident enough to defeat and even kill those outer elders in the clan who were Grade 2 Martial Masters. This was the might brought about by the complete Gale Heart Technique.

"Lin Yun, there is less than ten days to the sect's selection compet.i.tion, so you have to put in a bit of effort!"

Seeing that Lin Yun had just consolidated his cultivation and hid himself in the Reflection Pavilion, protecting Yu Saiqi's safety, Yu Haoran felt satisfied but at the same time did not forget to comfort him, in case she felt uncomfortable in her heart.

After all, the loyal Lin Yun was likely to be one of the people who he would set up his own faction in the future.

"Young Patriarch, this is something your subordinate should do, and it's not tiring at all!" Lin Yun hurriedly stated his position.

Actually, this one day and one night of protection had not only been extremely exhausting for Lin Yun, it had also consumed a lot of his energy and physical strength.

Because after the end of the interrogation in the Great a.s.sembly Hall, Lin Yun was shocked to discover that not only was Yu Haoran not harmed in the slightest, he had even regained his ident.i.ty as a direct descendant and he had even moved back into the quiet and elegant pavilion.

He thought that this was the result of Yu Haoran and the Ninth Elder joining hands. However, with the great clan elder's temperament, he would probably not accept's fate so easily. He would definitely send a.s.sa.s.sins to a.s.sa.s.sinate Yu Saiqi.

Therefore, he was always on full alert to prevent the killer's sudden attack.

However, a day and a night had already pa.s.sed, and not to mention the killers, even an ordinary person had not appeared in the Reflection Pavilion. It was only when Yu Haoran appeared in the Reflection Pavilion that he could finally relax a little.

"We can't be careless!" Yu Haoran had clearly seen Lin Yun's relaxed expression just now and knew what he was thinking. However, it was impossible for him to tell Lin Yun about the secret agreement between him and the Great Clan Elder.

However, with Grand Elder's narrow-minded nature, he wouldn't just sit by and let fate take its course because of his own threat. He would definitely think of a way to remove the hidden danger.

Since he could not touch him for the time being, the method to threaten him and guarantee that his secrets would not be leaked was Yu Saiqi.

Therefore, before the great sect selection compet.i.tion began, the Great Elder would either not make a move, or his momentum would be like thunder.

Thinking about it, Yu Haoran touched the Sea of Consciousness mark, and contacted the tarin.

"tarin, are you able to sense the situation over at my sister's place at any time?"

"Yes, I only need to leave behind a mark with my spiritual will. I will be the first to know about any changes that have occurred here."

He knew what Yu Haoran was worried about, so he tried his best not to worry about tarin when it was within his capabilities.

"Thank you!" After thanking him, Yu Haoran indicated for Lin Yun to continue guarding, and then left the Reflection Pavilion in large strides.

Since he had guessed that the Great Clan Elder might launch a thunderous attack, he had to prepare for it. Other than Lin Yun's protection, he also needed to invite other experts that could intimidate the Great Clan Elder.

That was the number one expert of Yu Family: Ninth Elder.

Perhaps it was because of Yu Haoran's outstanding performance in the Great a.s.sembly Hall, that allowed Ninth Elder to see the hope that the Yu Family would prosper in the future. Thus, when facing Yu Haoran's request, he didn't think too much and directly nodded, accepting it.

With Lin Yun's protection from the shadows, with the tarin monitoring them at all times and the Ninth Elder agreeing to help, his sister's safety should be safe for the time being, so Yu Haoran started to cultivate with all his strength.

… ….

Time pa.s.sed day by day.

The originally calm Pingyang City gradually became lively.

On the streets, in the taverns, and in the inns, one could often see warriors with weapons in their hands, wearing gorgeous clothes, walking in and out with restrained auras.

The atmosphere was so lively because once every three years, the sect selection compet.i.tion would begin. At that time, the seven peak forces of the Profound Sky Continent, fifteen first-rate powers, and dozens of second-rate and third-rate forces would choose their disciples from within the Pingyang City.

Of course, it was impossible for the sect selection compet.i.tion to only be conducted to select disciples from the Pingyang City s.

Dozens of sects that controlled seventy percent of the world's resources had hundreds of strongholds set up in each selection.

And Pingyang City was only one of the bases located in Eastern Mountain County of Great Qin Empire!

Pingyang City belonged to Eastern Mountain County. It was one of the thirty-eight cities in Eastern Mountain County, and was one of the lowest ranked and least valued cities in the entire county.

Originally, for an important compet.i.tion as important as the sect's selection compet.i.tion, it would be impossible for the Pingyang City to host it. However, there was a saying that no one could stop luck when it came to it.

The compet.i.tion arena that was held once every three years was always held in the Eastern Mountain County, Eastern Mountain City. This custom had already persisted for several hundred rounds and was close to a thousand years.

However, before this year's Sect-Selection Compet.i.tion was about to take place, in a mountain range belonging to Eastmount City, there was an unexpected discovery of a powerful forbidden area and a formation left behind by the ancestors.

According to the conjectures of the formation masters of the Great Qin Empire, there was a high chance that the remains there were the cave left behind by the peerless experts of the Martial Saint Realm.
