Chapter 110: Chapter 110 Marquis Chapter 110: Chapter 110 Marquis “Hehe…”
“Hahaha…”
The twenty-plus mbers of Fla burst into quiet laughter, obviously catching on to Fang De’s intention to embarrass Jing Yan.
Gao Feng rolled her eyes and shot Fang De a glare.
However, she didn’t rebuke Fang De.
After all, it wasn’t a matter of great significance.
Seeing this guy nad Jing Yan acting so cocky and pretentious, Gao Feng also felt a twinge of annoyance.
She had seen plenty of these young masters—those from minor families in small towns who had far more opportunities to access resources than they as adventurers did.
They had no idea how dangerous a place like the Moonlight Forest could be.
Yet, Jing Yan just chuckled again.
It was clear to everyone that Fang De was trying to ridicule him, so how could Jing Yan not realize it?
But he wasn’t angry.
Despite their brief interaction, he could tell that the mbers of Fla were decent folks.
“Actually, my Cultivation isn’t lower than yours!” Jing Yan said earnestly to Fang De with a smile.
“Oh?”
“What?”
“Hahaha…
Young Master Jing Yan, do you even know what realm I’m in?” Fang De, taken aback at first, laughed out loud again.
To him, how could Jing Yan possibly know his realm?
Saying such a thing was rely an attempt not to lose face—a classic case of pretending to be sothing he was not.
“You’re at the Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven!” Jing Yan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“And I should also be considered to be in the Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven!
You shouldn’t underestimate !”
Jing Yan paused before he jokingly added that last sentence.
The Half-step Innate Realm also counts as part of the Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven.
On the Continent, realms are distinct in classification and, typically, there’s no Half-step Innate level.
Above the Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven Realm lies the Innate Realm.
Many martial artists don’t even experience the transitional Half-step Innate stage before progressing to the Innate Realm.
Thus, Jing Yan saying he is also in the Ninth Layer Heaven was not incorrect.
Upon hearing Jing Yan claim to be in the Ninth Layer Heaven, the others were montarily taken aback, casting doubtful glances his way.
Was this Young Master Jing Yan telling the truth or just boasting?
If he genuinely possessed Martial Arts Ninth Layer Heaven Cultivation, that would be truly fearso!
This Young Master Jing Yan appeared to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, yet already at the Ninth Layer Heaven—how terrifying must his Martial Arts talent be?
His future ascension to the Innate Realm would undoubtedly be steady.
The Innate Realm…
“Young Master Jing Yan, don’t be full of hot air.
Our mission with Fla is to ensure your safety.
If you were that powerful, what would we need to protect you for?” Gao Feng, always blunt, directly challenged Jing Yan’s pride.
“Hehe…” Jing Yan chuckled twice more but offered no further explanation.
Seeing Jing Yan fall silent, Gao Feng and the others beca even more convinced that he had been bluffing.
Gao Feng couldn’t help but roll her eyes at Jing Yan again.
The fiery-tempered beauty’s eye-rolling, however, was quite stunning.
“Up ahead is Soul-breaking Cliff!” announced Gao Zhan, the team leader, pointing ahead.
“In the center of Soul-breaking Cliff, there’s a Heavenly Ladder.
In this whole region, it’s the only access to the Moonlight Forest.
Otherwise, we’d have to detour hundreds of miles away,” Gao Zhan continued.
He shared this information mainly for Jing Yan’s sake.
The rest of the adventuring team already knew these details.
But for Jing Yan, who was entering the Moonlight Forest for the first ti, the knowledge would be less clear, even if he had heard of it before.
“They say that Soul-breaking Cliff was not ford naturally,” Fang De added.
“Mhm, indeed it wasn’t natural.
Soul-breaking Cliff was moved here by a supre powerhouse to prevent the spiritual beasts in the Moonlight Forest from bothering human dwellers in the Duyang City area,” Gao Feng nodded in agreent.
Jing Yan was deeply moved by their words.
There, the massive Soul-breaking Cliff could already be seen.
This staggeringly steep cliff that soared directly into the clouds was actually moved here by Human Martial Artists from another location?
How strong must that martial artist have been?
Gao Feng referred to him as a supre powerhouse but didn’t specify the realm.
Perhaps Gao Feng herself did not know the realm of that strong individual.
But to relocate such an imnse cliff, the strength required would be terrifying indeed.
When would he himself possess such strength?
Jing Yan couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
As they talked, the group reached the Heavenly Ladder.
To enter the Moonlight Forest, they had to climb to the top of Soul-breaking Cliff, then descend again.
Once they reach the bottom on the other side, they would officially enter the Moonlight Forest.
Since this was the only way to enter the Moonlight Forest for hundreds of miles, there were many Martial Artists passing through here.
After climbing from the base of the cliff for nearly two hours, Jing Yan and the group eventually made it to the top of Soul-breaking Cliff.
Jing Yan marveled in his heart.
Soul-breaking Cliff was indeed incredibly steep.
Had it not been for the presence of the Heavenly Ladder, even he might not have been able to climb from the bottom to the top.
Not every Innate Strong Person might be able to do so, either.
Ahead, down below, they could already see a vast expanse of green stretching far into the distance, endless and boundless.
This was the Moonlight Forest.
The Moonlight Forest was more legendary than the Black Stone Mountain Range in Lanqu County, let alone Duyang City.
Though the Black Stone Mountain Range was also replete with spiritual beasts, it lacked in Spirit Grass and other resources.
It’s not that there wasn’t any, but compared to the Moonlight Forest, there was much less Spirit Grass.
Nearly all the adventurers entering the Moonlight Forest set finding various kinds of Spirit Grass as one of their primary objectives.
If fortune was on their side, discovering a precious high-grade Spirit Grass could make one rich overnight.
However, luck always graced only a few.
Most people might enter the Moonlight Forest many tis in their lifeti, only to find so Low-level Spirit Grass at best.
…
“Marquis!”
At the top of Soul-breaking Cliff, a black-clad Martial Artist hurried over from a distance, stopping before a group of several dozen Martial Artists and saluting the man at the front.
“Have they arrived?” The man at the front, slim but with enormous bulging eyes that made him look quite comical.
Yet, the dozens of solemn-faced Martial Artists around him stood silent and attentive.
Within this region, there was hardly anyone who did not recognize the Marquis.
His na was Ran Hou.
He was the leader of the most powerful band of bandits in this area.
Beside Ran Hou stood a man with a somber expression—the very Hua Bao who had been taught a lesson by Gao Feng in the Black Teeth Tavern.
