Chapter 217: Chapter 217 (Vol 2) – Lost Strength?

Ling Tian heard Long Cheng's question and began to analyze several things.

If they had even the slightest concern for Star City once everyone left here, that concern could eventually become a demon of the heart, preventing progress in cultivation.

"It may be something rash on my part or something obsessive, but those who are in charge of exploring the demonic beasts have informed me that there may be another attack by demonic beasts, but in less quantity than the previous one and it would be in a week perhaps." Long Cheng explained to Ling Tian what he knew.

"Don't worry, I could take care of it if it happened before, but you'll be stronger again before the demon beasts attack, so it won't be a problem." Ling Tian assured Long Cheng.

"And with regard to your previous question, it is best that the young people should be the ones to start over to increase their strength, in addition to having good aptitudes, preferably. I could also give them a technique that would allow them to increase their strength for a short period of time in case of need."

Ling Tian replied after thinking about it.

"So only the youngest ones with outstanding aptitude, right?" Long Cheng nodded in recognition, taking it into account to see how to select these young people.

"I could also make various spiritual elixirs to increase the inner strength of those in King and Emperor ranks so that they could attain to Legend rank, even they could attain to Divine rank." Ling Tian could easily make hundreds of spiritual liquids to increase the power of the ancient martial arts.

"That would be great!" Long Cheng sighed with relief. As long as there are several powerful people he would be relaxed about leaving the Star City.

"But I would need you to give me all the spiritual plants you have so that I can make those elixirs." Ling Tian did not forget to remind Long Cheng about spiritual plants.

"Then tomorrow I will have them send all the plants we have."

"No, don't worry, I can take care of it right away."

Long Cheng hesitated for a moment but then nodded and led Ling Tian to the vault of the Lord of the City Mansion, where all the spiritual and medicinal plants were.

Long Yuyin followed behind the two of them, with her gaze fixed on Ling Tian's back.

Huh?

Ling Tian noticed something in the range of his spiritual sense as he walked around the Mansion.

'Yuyin, it seems that these two guys are in some kind of trouble, could you go see them?' Ling Tian sent a spiritual transmission, startling Long Yuyin instantly. He had an expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry as he thought, 'These guys...'

Long Yuyin nodded a little reluctantly at this, but she left right away after Ling Tian told her where Tang Jingtian and Mu Shen were.

Ling Tian followed Long Cheng to the secret vault while Long Yuyin left the Mansion of the Lord of the City and advanced several streets in one direction. Although she did not know how Ling Tian could know things that were happening far away as if he was watching, she did not hesitate and did what Ling Tian asked, even though it was only one or two things.

Long Yuyin soon arrived at the place where Ling Tian told her.

"Hey, why don't you come with us better than with that trash?"

"Leave me alone!"

"Don't you dare do anything to Wenxin!"

"Hahaha! You think you can stop me?"

A group of several young people were arguing loudly, while some were looking at each other with hate and fun.

Mu Shen and Tang Jingtian were facing other young men while behind them two were a total of 8 women.

The other group consisted of 5 men and 3 women.

"So? Misses, why don't you come over to my side? I am sure you will be safer with me and my brothers. If any other horde of demonic beast were to attack the city again, my family would take care of all of you along with your families".

The young man, who seemed to be a leader, looked proudly at the women behind Tang Jingtian and Mu Shen.

"It seems as if you can cover the sky with one hand, Na Shin." Tang Jingtian sneered when he looked at this guy.

Na Shin looked at Tang Jingtian with arrogance and disdain: "Although your Tang family is one of the great families, my Na family will also become the next great family, surpassing the power of yours." In his eyes one could even find contempt.

The aristocratic families that were somehow under pressure from the Ming and Ze families, have started to emerge again, some families very likely to become a great family once they have an Emperor rank in them.

Tang Jingtian looked more coldly at Na Shin, trying to resist the pressure from him. His cultivation was barely in the First Stage of Chi Gathering, while Na Shin would be in the King rank. Mu Shen was also in the same way. They both clenched their teeth hard trying to resist Na Shin's aura.

Many people advanced to the next rank 'easily' after having fought between life and death a few days ago, against the horde of demonic beasts.

Yu Qing approached Tang Jingtian and stood beside him, taking his hand and looking coldly at Na Shien.

Likewise, Hu Wenxin also took Mu Shen's hand, expressing that she would not leave him.

The other women behind them did not move either. Only a few were hesitant.

Na Shin frowned and tried to pressure Mu Shen and Tang Jingtian.

"Hahaha!" Na Shin started laughing like crazy when he saw the resistance of both guys: "The rumors are true!"

Na Shin continued to laugh like crazy and the others who were with him also started laughing wildly after they understood what Na Shin said.

"Huh?!"

"Is it true?"

"It seems so!"

"Hahaha."

"Then it's true about the two of them!

The boys laughed with scorn and derision evident in them as they looked at Mu Shen and Tang Jingtian.

Tang Jingtian and Mu Shen frowned as they listened to what they said, thinking of a possibility about what they meant.

Yu Qing and Hu Wenxi also frowned and turned to their loved ones with confused expressions, wanting to know what was going on. The other women also looked at the two men in confusion.

"What are you talking about?" Mu Shen asked strangely.

Na Shin continued to laugh like crazy for several more seconds before saying, "About you having lost your strength!"

Tang Jingtian and Mu Shen understood instantly.

Now they knew what Na Shin meant!

No wonder Na Shin was so arrogant in interacting with them.

It was all because they had discarded the martial arts and their inner energies to cultivate like Ling Tian!

"You may have had a strength at that time comparable to Emperor rank, some even claimed that your forces reached Legend rank."  Na Shin spoke with some envy before calming down and then arrogantly saying, "But now everyone says that you used some forbidden technique that allowed you to increase your strength and the price of using it is that you both lost your inner energies!"

Then, Na Shi turned to Hu Wenxin, Yu Qing and the other women behind Mu Shen and Tang Jingtian and said, "You see? It's true what I said. Even the two of them don't deny it and try to resist the aura of my strength... why don't you better come with me? It is better for you to have someone who can defend you in any attack than two men who lost their strength. I am a King rank and I feel that in one year I will be able to reach Emperor rank easily!" Na Shin tried to show his gentlemanliness when he saw the women, but some could see that there was obvious lewdness and evil hidden in his eyes when he saw them.

The women turned to see Tang Jingtian and Mu Shen and indeed, both did not deny what Na Shin said, making them all believe that the two of them had lost their powers.

Tang Jintian and Mu Shen understood why sometimes several people would secretly point to the two of them and sometimes vaguely mention their names.

No wonder Na Shin thinks they became useless. They had begun to cultivate, and Ling Tian had explained to them that cultivation hides one's strength when it has stabilized, preventing the city martial artists from feeling the energy in their bodies since one always unconsciously lets part of their auras escape.

Na Shin didn't feel any strength in these two, so he was now sure that Mu Shen and Tang Jingtian had 'lost' their strength.
