Chapter 12 - White Alyssum City"s Mayor, Bai Juan!

---

Arthur Vermillion did not waste any time as he started to fully cultivate the "Sable G.o.d"s Movement Technique" for almost 8 hours straight. He did not eat nor drink during this period, only the sound of his breathing and the whistling of the wind through the curtain could be heard. Everyone in the Vermillion Family even Jiu Vermillion didn"t disturb Arthur Vermillion throughout this time, it was not they did not dare but it was because they were very used to this kind of behavior. Arthur Vermillion has always worked two if not a hundred times harder than his peers in everything, however he was always a step behind them and it was also growing further, it is also the very reason why he had to distance himself from Rose Jade in the past lest he implicate her. But now that Arthur Vermillion has the memories and experience of an "experienced master", if all things keep going as they were before, then he might really leave behind his peers and even the older generations in the dust in a short span of time.

After he finished cultivating the "Sable G.o.d"s Movement Technique", he realized that he underestimated on how easy it is to cultivate. He almost instantly understood the rudimentary stage as soon as he finished reading it, then the first, second, and third. There are a total of 5 stages written in the "Sable G.o.d"s Movement Technique". The first stage is called "Immortal Eyes", after a pract.i.tioner comprehends this, they would far surpa.s.s cultivators whom relied solely on the Body Strengthening Realm"s Superior Body Stage to temper their body. For the second stage "Heavenly Plume Overhaul", the weight of your body would be almost reduced to the weight of a feather, the strength exerted wouldn"t be affected by any way because of this. Third stage, "Shadow Thunder"s Celerity", greatly increases the speed of the cultivator. The fourth and fifth stage wasn"t comprehended by Arthur Vermillion so he had no way of knowing what their effects are.

He has already learned all three stages of the "Sable G.o.d"s Movement Technique" so afterwards he has to consolidate it through real life combat, practicing it is also good but it would also take less time the latter. Subsequently, he placed the refining furnace underneath his bed and changed his clothes soaked with sweat to a red long dress with an embroidered Vermillion Bird emitting a fiery red flames at the back.

Casually walking by and glancing precipitously at the dazzling flowers scattered around, he suddenly felt a familiar blazing power coming from the main hall which was a few meters away from him. Arthur Vermillion stopped his footsteps and dragged his legs over in that direction.

"Originally, I thought your Vermillion Family would still be able to retain the position of a member of the White Alyssum City"s Three Great Families with my help, however with the current progress your family is showing, I"m afraid even I won"t be able to help you anymore within a year or two"s time.", the man said lamentedly.


"Sigh... Don"t say such words, City Mayor. If it wasn"t for you and the Jade Family, my Vermillion Family might be loitering around the outskirts as of now.", Jiu Vermillion said with wrinkled eyebrows. The blazing power that he released also gradually subsided.

The man that Jiu Vermillion is currently talking to was surprisingly the City Mayor of the White Alyssum City, Bai Juan! Even when Jiu Vermillion unintentionally released his blazing aura, the man beside him was not the least bit fazed, only the strongest person in the city could have this strength which is precisely Bai Juan!

Bai Juan shook his head sensing Jiu Vermillion downcast, "Truly regrettable, I thought you and your wife who stood at the peak in your youth would produce an outstanding youth in the future. But who would have thought that..."

"Father! City Mayor!" A cheerful voice interrupted the words that Bai Juan was speaking. Jiu Vermillion had also changed his att.i.tude the moment this figure showed up.

"Junior greets the City Mayor," Arthur Vermillion cupped his fist, "Father, this child has a matter to speak with you, I wonder if you would be willing?"

Jiu Vermillion did not have the despondent look anymore as he answered Arthur Vermillion, "Ask away," He turned his head towards the direction of Bai Juan and added, "But it might be a bit inconvenient to the City Mayor so-"

Before Jiu Vermillion could even finish speaking, Bai Juan interrupted him and said, "Brother Jiu Vermillion is too courteous. I"ve sensed that this child of yours is already about to breakthrough the second level of the Body Strengthening Realm, Superior Body Stage. So if the matter he talks about is related to it, I might be able to help him."

When Jiu Vermillion heard what Bai Juan said, he was a bit of a loss. Just two or three days ago, he broke through the Vigor Stage of the Body Strenghtening Realm. How did he consolidate his foundation so soon?

However, Arthur Vermillion only showed a pleasure smile when he heard Bai Juan as he turned his head to Jiu Vermillion, "I was actually planning to go to some place with a lot of beasts with the strength of at most, a Superior Body stage martial artist. I was hoping that father knows of a place."

"This... I indeed have some places in mind, however the beasts have already formed some kind of intellect and thus have avoided contact with humans in their own initiative, the weakest beasts which has the strength of a Superior Body stage martial artist always stays at the middle parts of the forest and won"t come out until they have fully grown. If you are willing, I could send someone to accompany you."

Arthur Vermillion already expected this kind of answer so he lightly shook his head, declining Jiu Vermillion"s idea. It wouldn"t be a life threatening situation anymore if his life is not threatened, it was also not possible for him to send himself towards the death"s door.

Beasts also practice a cultivation technique that is similar to human race"s Body Strengthening technique. Most beasts can only reach the strength of the Meridian Opening Stage in their entire lifetime due to their low intelligence, but the weakest among them has the strength of a Superior Body Stage martial artist. That means that after being born, the beasts would automatically have the strength of a Superior Body Stage martial artist!

At this time, Bai Juan"s voice have entered at the ears of the two.

"Child, actually there might be a place that has a couple of Superior Body stage beasts."

"Hm?" Hearing this, Arthur Vermillion immediately stretched out his ear to listen attentively.

"There was a report earlier from a mortal village that a dozen or so Superior Body Stage beasts have been spotted near their village and requested us to exterminate them. How about this, I will send 2 middle stage Yellow Blood Realm experts to protect the village and you will be the one to kill the beasts. If you feel that your skills are lacking and aren"t a match for them, you can just notify the 2 experts to directly kill them."

Arthur Vermillion was delighted upon hearing the City Mayor"s proposal.

"Then I must thank the City Mayor for this" Arthur Vermillion cupped his fists once more.

"Haha, I can see a steadfast will towards cultivation in your eyes, work hard and bring glory to your father!"

With that, Arthur Vermillion bowed and immediately rushed out of the main hall heading straight towards his room.

"Hahahaha, that kid didn"t even asked when he is going to depart and immediately continued his cultivation. I must say, I underestimated the determination of your son, Brother Jiu Vermillion."

Jiu Vermillion only gave a wry smile to Bai Juan, he was still slightly stunned when he learned Arthur Vermillion is on the verge of breaking through again after having two days pa.s.s.
