831: Monsoon City

"Then you'd better work hard, because by the time you challenge me next, my ranking might have already left you far behind, and I might not even bother with you then," Yang Lingchen said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I definitely won't be left too far behind by you guys," Yin Tianyou said confidently.

"Good, I'll wait for that day."

Yang Lingchen smiled, then left the Yunxian Sect with Bujie.

In the following days, Yang Lingchen took Bujie to challenge others continuously throughout the Eastern Immortal Domain.

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

After half a month of challenges, Yang Lingchen's ranking on the Eastern Immortal Domain's prodigy ranking list had reached 80th place, while Bujie had reached 85th place.

At the same time, during these past two weeks, Yang Lingchen's cultivation level had successfully made a Breakthrough to the ninth layer of the Golden Immortal Realm.

Bujie's cultivation level had also successfully made a Breakthrough to the fourth layer of the Spirit Immortal Realm as he had hoped.

On this day, the two arrived at a city named Jitian City.

Jitian City was one of the four great King-level powers in the Eastern Immortal Domain.

Compared to a Heaven-Grade power like the East Immortal Academy, Jitian City's strength was clearly several levels higher.

"Senior Brother, you aren't thinking of challenging Ji Feng, are you!" Bujie asked nervously.

"What? Is that not allowed?" Yang Lingchen asked with a smile.

"It's allowed, but this guy is a bit troublesome to deal with," Bujie said with a frown.

"How so?" Yang Lingchen asked.

"This guy is the Young Master of the Ji Family. He has been arrogant and domineering since he was young, and his Cross-Rank Challenge ability is extremely formidable. Over the years, very few people who have challenged him in Jitian City have been able to leave unscathed. Challenging him here might carry a certain amount of risk," Bujie said in a deep voice.

Upon hearing this, Yang Lingchen opened the Heavens Wind and Cloud Ranking again to carefully examine the information on Ji Feng and the Ji Family.

A moment later, Yang Lingchen frowned. He learned from the Wind and Cloud Ranking that this Ji Feng was indeed very arrogant and ruthless in his actions.

Yang Lingchen didn't really take these things to heart. What truly made him wary was the Ji Family. After all, this was Jitian City; he could win, but he absolutely could not injure the opponent, otherwise the consequences would be very severe.

Ji Feng, however, had no such scruples. If he won, he would kill his opponent without hesitation, but if others won, they wouldn't dare to kill him. This caused those who sparred with him to be timid, unable to display their strongest Combat Power.

After pondering for a moment, Yang Lingchen ultimately decided to challenge Ji Feng.

Cultivation is like sailing against the current; if one is timid in everything and dare not face difficulties, what qualification does one have to reach the Peak?

At this moment, Yang Lingchen and Bujie had already arrived outside Jitian City.

This was a towering city. The entire city was vast in area, standing quietly as if it were an ancient Dragon coiled up, displaying endless majesty and grandeur.

Jitian City soared into the clouds, its walls built from hard extraterrestrial black stone. The architectural styles within the city varied; there were towers that pierced the sky, as well as magnificent, golden palaces. Shops lined both sides of the streets, and the shouts of vendors rose one after another, making it extremely lively.

Clearly, this was an extremely prosperous city.

...

City Lord's Mansion, City Lord's Main Hall.

A middle-aged man with a tall posture and a resolute face was sitting on the main seat.

His eyes were deep and carried a hint of vicissitudes, as if they could see through a person's heart. His body exuded a steady and majestic aura that made people afraid to look directly at him.

This person was none other than the City Lord of Jitian City, Ji Tianya.

"From today on, you will follow Tiantian closely. If you let her run out of Jitian City again, then there will be no need for you to continue living," Ji Tianya said in an ice-cold voice.

"Yes, City Lord." The two middle-aged men wearing Elder robes hurriedly responded respectfully.

"Go away!" Ji Tianya waved his hand.

...

Yang Lingchen took Bujie to enjoy themselves in Jitian City, then arrived at the challenge area in the city center.

After hanging up the challenge banner, the two sat down at the edge of the Arena in the city center.

The Challenge Stage in the center of Jitian City was extremely vast, and the surroundings of the Arena were reinforced with top-tier Formation, sufficient to support a battle between experts of the Void Immortal Realm.

Moments after the challenge banner was hung, many people who wanted to watch the excitement gathered around.

"Who is this guy? To dare challenge the Young City Lord!"

"Isn't it noted on his banner?"

"So this guy is Yang Lingchen. He has been very active on the prodigy ranking list recently, challenging several Prodigies in a row."

Soon, many onlookers recognized Yang Lingchen.

...

City Lord's Mansion backyard.

A handsome and extraordinary-looking young man was practicing swordplay in the courtyard. In a pavilion not far away, a young girl in a luxurious white dress was watching the youth practice his swordplay.

A moment later, that extraordinary young man stopped practicing his swordplay.

This extraordinary young man was none other than the Young City Lord of Jitian City, Ji Feng, and the one practicing swordplay on the side was Ji Tiantian.

"Tiantian, how do you have the time to come see your brother today?" A faint smile appeared on Ji Feng's face.

"I haven't been back in a long time, so I wanted to find my brother to accompany me for a stroll in the city," Ji Tiantian said with a smile.

"I can accompany you for a stroll, but if you run away again this time, I won't acknowledge you as my sister in the future," Ji Feng said with annoyance.

"Don't worry! I was just bored shopping alone and wanted you to accompany me," Ji Tiantian said, the corners of her mouth slightly lifting.

She had originally come out to Cultivate, but she didn't expect to run into people from her own Family and was eventually dragged back; even the sound transmission jade on her person had been confiscated.

"Fine, then I'll accompany you for a stroll!" A warm smile appeared on Ji Feng's face. He still doted on his sister very much.

Just at this moment, a servant hurried over.

"Young Master, news has come from the Challenge Stage in the city center that a person named Yang Lingchen on the prodigy ranking list wants to challenge you."

"Yang Lingchen!" Upon hearing this, Ji Tiantian's expression changed instantly. She didn't expect Yang Lingchen to actually come to Jitian City.

"Tiantian, do you know this person?" Ji Feng asked curiously.

"I've heard of this person; it's said that his strength is quite strong." Ji Tiantian's expression quickly returned to normal, and she said, "Brother, why don't we go take a look?"

"Fine, we're free anyway. I want to see what kind of ability he has to dare challenge me!" A cold glint appeared in Ji Feng's eyes.

In Ji Feng's view, for a contestant who had just entered the prodigy ranking list to dare to challenge him, this was simply a provocation against him.
