Chapter 487 Ascending Dragon Tournament

As the kiss between Wang Jian and Yu Qing came to an end, a charged silence hung in the air, broken only by the sound of their ragged breaths.

Wang Jian gazed into Yu Qing’s eyes, his heart pounding in his chest. “I… I couldn’t let you go without saying goodbye,” he admitted, his voice barely above a whisper.

Yu Qing’s cheeks flushed crimson as she met his gaze, a thousand emotions swirling in her mind. “Thank you, Jian,” she murmured, her voice soft and filled with gratitude.

With a final, lingering glance, Yu Qing turned and fled from the cavern, her movements swift and graceful as she disappeared into the darkness.

Left alone in the aftermath of their battle, Wang Jian wasted no time in securing the Dragon Skeleton within his Minor World. With a wave of his hand, he summoned forth flames that engulfed the cavern, reducing it to ash in a matter of moments.

With his task complete, Wang Jian took to the skies, his heart heavy with the weight of their parting. But even as he soared through the air, his thoughts remained with Yu Qing, her presence lingering like a whisper on the wind.

Meanwhile, as Lin Fei emerged from the spatial illusion that had trapped him, he found himself surrounded by flames that raged with an intensity he had never witnessed before. Panic surged through him as he realized the gravity of his situation.

With no time to waste, Lin Fei sprinted through the cavern, his heart pounding in his chest as he fought to escape the inferno that threatened to consume him.

As he burst from the mouth of the cave, he was greeted by the cool night air, a welcome relief after the suffocating heat of the flames. Gasping for breath, he collapsed onto the ground, his limbs trembling with exhaustion. π™‘π™žπ“«π™§π’†π™–π“­.π™˜π™€π™’

As Wang Jian soared through the night sky, his mind buzzed with thoughts and possibilities. The encounter with Yu Qing had left him feeling unsettled, a nagging sense of urgency gnawing at his insides.

Deep down, he knew that Yu Qing’s fate was intertwined with that of Lin Fei, the enigmatic protagonist whose every move seemed to ripple through the fabric of destiny.

With a heavy heart, Wang Jian realized that he could no longer afford to delay his confrontation with Lin Fei. The longer he waited, the greater the risk to Yu Qing and himself.

With a determined set to his jaw, Wang Jian made the decision to return to the Stars owned by the Lin Family. He knew that he needed to gather more information about the situation unfolding there and devise a plan to confront Lin Fei.

Upon his arrival, Wang Jian wasted no time in seeking out the locals in the settlement. Through careful questioning and subtle manipulation, he managed to glean valuable information about the current whereabouts and activities of Lin Xingya.

It wasn’t long before Wang Jian learned that Lin Xingya was undergoing rigorous training under the guidance of one of the ancient ancestors of the Lin Family who had recently awakened from the Clan Mausoleum. This revelation sent a chill down Wang Jian’s spine as he realized the gravity of the situation.

“If Lin Xingya is being trained by one of the ancient ancestors, then her power and influence within the Lin Family will only continue to grow,” Wang Jian mused, his mind racing with possibilities.

This revelation pleased Wang Jian, knowing that it would bolster Lin Xingya’s strength and abilities.

However, his attention soon shifted when he heard whispers of the upcoming Ascending Dragon Tournament, organized by the prestigious Nangong Ancient Family. The tournament was open to all young talents under the age of thirty, promising enticing rewards to those who emerged victorious.

Upon learning of the age limit, Wang Jian contemplated using the Laws of Life to manipulate his age, ensuring that he appeared below thirty years old to avoid detection. After all, the allure of the tournament’s rewards was too tempting to pass up, and Wang Jian knew that competitors from all corners of the Eastern Region would converge for a chance at glory.

With a determined gleam in his eye, Wang Jian set his sights on the Ascending Dragon Tournament, ready to test his mettle against the best and brightest of the younger generation.

With his plan set in motion, Wang Jian wasted no time in setting out for the Stars owned by the Nangong Family. Though somewhat distant from the Lin Family’s domain, he knew that the teleportation formations within the Lin Family’s settlements would expedite his journey.

Arriving at the teleportation formation, Wang Jian activated it discreetly, disappearing in a flicker of light before reappearing in the settlement on the Star of the Nangong Family.

As he stepped onto Nangong territory, Wang Jian felt a surge of anticipation coursing through him. The Nangong Family, known for their formidable influence and ancient lineage, presented both opportunities and challenges.

Determined to navigate the unfamiliar territory undetected, Wang Jian drew upon his mastery of the Laws of Shadow and Darkness, shrouding himself in an impenetrable veil of concealment. With each step, he moved with the stealth and precision of a phantom, slipping past guards and wards alike as he infiltrated the heart of the Nangong Family’s domain.

In the shadows, Wang Jian observed the bustling activity of the Nangong settlement, taking note of the intricacies of their daily routines and security measures. His keen eyes scanned the surroundings, searching for any vulnerabilities or hidden passages that could aid him in his quest.

As Wang Jian continued to move through the Nangong Family’s domain, he soon came across the residences of the family’s inheritors. Observing from the shadows, he noted the graceful and precise sword techniques being practiced by the male members of the family. Their movements were fluid yet lethal, a testament to their rigorous training regimen.

‘My, my, seems like the Nangong Family values elegance and precision in their martial arts,’ Wang Jian thought to himself as he watched the training session unfold.

Continuing on his reconnaissance mission, Wang Jian soon found himself overlooking the construction site of the arena where the Ascending Dragon Tournament would be held. The sight before him was a testament to the meticulous planning and formidable resources of the Nangong Family.

The stage of the arena, crafted from dense and powerful materials, stood as a testament to the Family’s commitment to ensuring the safety and integrity of the tournament. Wang Jian observed as multiple arrays were drawn around the perimeter of the stage, creating a barrier to contain the battles within and protect the spectators outside.

‘Impressive array work,’ Wang Jian mused silently, his eyes scanning the intricate patterns etched into the ground. ‘But what are those additional arrays for?’

As he continued to observe, Wang Jian noticed two more arrays being added, this time encompassing the entire colosseum. One of these arrays, he deduced, was a Dark Qi Infusion Array, designed to subtly imbue individuals with small amounts of Dark Qi at regular intervals. The accumulation of Dark Qi over time would eventually suppress the natural spiritual and divine energy of those within its influence.

‘A clever tactic,’ Wang Jian thought, his mind buzzing with curiosity. ‘But why go to such lengths? What do they hope to achieve with this Dark Qi infusion?’

With a silent chuckle, Wang Jian decided to bide his time and observe from the shadows. There was more to this tournament than met the eye.

As the days passed and the excitement surrounding the Ascending Dragon Tournament continued to build, the Nangong Family’s estate buzzed with activity. Inheritors and guests from various ancient families arrived, each greeted with the utmost hospitality and provided luxurious residences situated near powerful spiritual veins.

Wang Jian, blending seamlessly into the bustling crowd, observed the influx of visitors with keen interest. He watched as the guests marveled at their opulent accommodations, their eyes widening in awe at the grandeur of the Nangong Family’s hospitality.

‘Quite the spectacle,’ Wang Jian thought to himself, a wry smile playing on his lips as he observed the reactions of the common folk to their lavish surroundings. ‘But amidst all this extravagance, I wonder who will prove to be the true contenders.’

As the days turned into weeks, Wang Jian patiently waited for the right moment to make his move. He knew that amidst the sea of faces, there were certain individuals whose destinies were intertwined with his own, and he was determined to seek them out.

Then, on the dawn of the tournament’s commencement, the first familiar face appeared: It belonged to the wonderous and seductive beauty, Shui Xueying of the esteemed Shui Family.

Wang Jian’s eyes sparkled with anticipation as he watched Shui Xueying’s arrival, his mind already calculating the potential outcomes of their encounter.

‘Ah, Shui Xueying,’ he mused silently, his gaze following her graceful movements. ‘Let’s see what fate has in store for us this time.’

With that, Wang Jian went to his residence in the settlement.
