Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill

Capítulo 1131: Chapter 37: Threads of Fate

Liang Guang had always been using the Source Pen, and Wang Sheng naturally focused on it, aware of all Liang Guang’s experiences.

It must be said, Liang Guang was indeed cautious, always using the Source Pen carefully, never greedy even once over thirty years, choosing treasures beyond his power.

For example, when in the Fourth Realm, he would never alter his destiny to acquire Fifth Realm treasures.

It was precisely this caution that allowed him to reach his current stage smoothly, the Fifth Realm.

Of course, often walking by the river, how can one avoid wet feet?

This time, Liang Guang encountered the greatest crisis since his cultivation journey began.

Thirty years ago, the strongest on Floating Light Star was in the Sixth Realm.

But ten years ago, it had become the Seventh Realm.

And not just one.

Currently, there are three Seventh Realm beings, one for each of the three strong races: Human Race, Sea Clan, and Heavenly Clan.

Of course, the breakthrough of strong beings is no coincidence, given Floating Light Star hasn’t advanced realms; the three strong beings broke through together naturally.

The real situation is the Human Race reached the Seventh Realm first, and the other two races, to avoid being wiped out, at great cost, allowed their strongest members to reach the Seventh Realm.

Such a Seventh Realm holds no potential, but it can address the urgent crisis, regardless of how they broke through, they are ultimately in the Seventh Realm.

Liang Guang has offended these Seventh Realm beings, and not just one, but all three Seventh Realm beings.

Of course, Wang Sheng knew it wasn’t offence; it was merely that the treasure Liang Guang obtained was too astonishing for their realm and coincidentally their original target.

What followed was a drama of concocted charges.

Though Liang Guang’s fame was rising, he couldn’t argue with the major families of the Seventh Realm.

He could only hide and escape.

With the Source Pen in his possession, he hid until now, not only that, he improved his cultivation significantly.

The Seventh Realm beings behind the scenes had intervened secretly but failed to catch him.

Facing this result, they certainly left no stone unturned, using every method.

Catching him as a threat was just one of them.

Of course, openly, not even most Sixth Realm would act against him.

No matter how unscrupulous, they still care about their reputation a little.

It’s not that the Fifth Realm has no face, but they have no choice in the matter.

At this moment, many Fifth Realm and a few Sixth Realm are approaching him.

Whale Fall City indeed has Sixth Realm cultivators.

However, they chose not to act.

Moreover, he came directly to find Wang Sheng.

“Master Wang, if possible, you should leave Whale Fall City quickly, otherwise your life might be in danger,” the City Lord spoke bluntly, directly mentioning the potential life-threatening situation.

“What do you mean?” He naturally pretended to be unaware of everything based on his current persona.

The City Lord didn’t mince words, directly explaining the situation; he was in the Sixth Realm and knew much about the situation.

“Thank you for the notification, City Lord, but aren’t you tempted? The treasure my apprentice obtained is coveted even by the Seventh Realm, it must be quite astonishing. If you were to capture me, even if not to threaten them, handing me over to those Seventh Realm might be considered a great achievement.”

The City Lord shook his head: “In this matter, anyone with a discerning eye knows the reason, I can’t stop it, but I also don’t want to partake in these dirty deeds. Compared to these, I’d rather guard Whale Fall City well. Surely, Master Wang, you understand why I am here!”

“Once they come to capture me, conflict will surely arise. I have the ability to resist, and in the little time I resist, Whale Fall City could suffer devastating damage, so you want me, this ‘trouble’, to leave.” He could see the City Lord’s intention at a glance.

The City Lord did not deny, but nodded, saying: “Yes, I ask for Master Wang’s understanding, Whale Fall City cannot withstand such severe damage. If something happens, it will surely provide the Sea Clan an opportunity to invade, I even suspect, among those coming to capture you, there might be Sea Clan with ulterior motives.”

Whale Fall City is adjacent to a Sea Clan territory, with both having conflicts for hundreds of years, each wishing for the other’s demise.

“If Master Wang is willing to leave, I will provide compensation and offer a hiding place.”

“What if I am unwilling?”

The City Lord was silent for a while, then slowly said: “Then I must offend.”

It’s impossible for him to let the entire city suffer for the sake of one person.

Wang Sheng smiled.

The City Lord of Whale Fall City certainly acted with utmost loyalty and righteousness; not to mention, this matter wasn’t significant to begin with, even if it was truly a threat, he would probably choose to leave. So, he said: “Rest assured, City Lord, I intended to leave anyway.”

Of course, leaving or not makes no difference, given his power, this isn’t even an issue.

He had no inclination to hide his strength and be abducted by a few in the Fifth and Sixth Realm.

The City Lord naturally was unaware of this, but hearing Wang Sheng’s response, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately said: “Master Wang, I will escort you away immediately.”

“Alright.” Wang Sheng did not oppose.

The City Lord personally escorted him, leading him out of Whale Fall City.

Yet—

“As expected, City Lord, do you intend to defy that master’s wishes, daring to take away the Master of Lifeless Martial Arts School?”

Not long after leaving Whale Fall City, Wang Sheng and the City Lord were pursued.

And it wasn’t an outsider, but the Deputy City Lord of Whale Fall City.

Upon seeing this person, the City Lord’s face immediately darkened: “You have betrayed Whale Fall City!”

Wang Sheng found it amusing; it seemed there wasn’t complete unity within Whale Fall City after all.

“City Lord, those who know the times are wise. With the emergence of the Seventh Realm, it’s not the era it once was. That one aims to take over Whale Fall City; neither you nor I can resist. Given that, why not accept it calmly?”
