The Adventures of the Young Master - Chapter 79

Chapter 79


Inside an inn .

Jin Rou already changed into his previous disguise and came back from outside . It was already past noon and past lunch . However, Old Mo and Ran Haoyu did not dare to eat lunch knowing that Jin Rou was not yet back . But all the dishes were already prepared . Although the dishes were served by the inn itself and could not compare to the dishes made by Old Mo, it was still a delicacy .

"You guys have not eaten yet?" Jin Rou asked as he saw the dishes untouched on the table .

"Welcome back . " Ran Haoyu met him with a light smile .

"Welcome back, Young Master!" Old Mo greeted first, "Yes, we are waiting for you to be back . Although the dishes were already a bit cold, I could reheat them for you if you will like it . "

"No need . Let's eat now . " Jin Rou waved it off .

"But the dishes were already . . " Old Mo wanted to say something when he was interrupted by Jin Rou, "Old Mo, let it be . I'm also quite hungry so I could not wait it to be reheated . "

Old Mo did not say anything else as he served the dishes and took a portion to place on Jin Rou's plate in a respectful manner . After which, the three started eating .

"Yuan Gu is not back yet?" Jin Rou noticed that the crowned prince had not yet back and asked .

"Don't bother with him, Young Master . " Old mo answered, "That guy will just be back in a matter of time . "

Jin Rou did not paid this heed and just continued eating and so were Old Mo and Ran Haoyu .

After they finished eating, Jin Rou decided to check out the yellow-class skill books which he bought from the market . Unbelievably, with few breaths, he already learned all of it and did not have a rejection in compatibility which made Old Mo and Ran Haoyu gasped in awe .

Although yellow-class skill books were the lowest of the lowest of class, it was still after all, a class . In fact, yellow-class skill books were not to be underestimated, for it has some skill books that could par with blue and red-classes if reached perfection . Also, learning a yellow-class skill for a portion would take at least few days at best when an extreme genius cultivated it . But Jin Rou managed to learned all of them in just few breaths .

There were also some cases that a skill would reject the body of the one cultivating it for some special reasons . After all, profound skill books were said to have intelligence and could choose their own masters .

This disparity! Old Mo and Ran Haoyu could not help but wonder if this man was a being from the above? Like those Immortals in the legend .

After learning all of the skills, Jin Rou decided to take out the Sky Stirring Necklace .

This necklace was the one he got from Peng Yu a while ago . This necklace could suppress and increase the power of the wearer up to Sky Realm, seventh stage . This was a fixed one .

Knowing that the Sky Stirring Necklace could not be effective for him since this necklace has a very low limit, he did some alternations that only he knew . He broke some chains within the necklace that bind it its restriction . After several breaths, he wore it to see the results .


Old Mo, who could not see Jin Rou's cultivation a while ago, breathed a mouthful of cool air and exclaimed, "Young Master, I can see your cultivation!"



"Even I also do . . " Ran Haoyu was stunned and said in a low tone .

However, the two knew that this was not the true cultivation of Jin Rou . They knew that it was because of the necklace after being wore .

Jin Rou only smiled after hearing this with a face of satisfaction .

"Young Master, your cultivation is being suppressed, right?" Old Mo asked . "It was because of that necklace . What is it that blue-colored necklace?" He was really curious about this .

"You can say it that way . " Jin Rou chuckled and looked at his plain blue-colored necklace, "This was the Sky Stirring Necklace . It can suppress your strength or increase your strength up to Sky Realm, seventh stage . "

"What a powerful necklace!" Old Mo exclaimed, "Young Master, did you also buy that? It seems kinda expensive . . "

"I just got a bargain . " Jin Rou smiled and suddenly remembered something, he took out the inventory ring that all of the diamonds, herbs and pills and potions that paid by the Alchemy Tower were . After which, he handed it over to Old Mo and said, "I also got this from a bargain . Take a look . "

Old Mo was confused, so he received the necklace and decided to take a look . When he did, his expression suddenly shifted paling and stuttered, "Y-young Master . . This . . these were millions of diamonds and few herbs and pills!"

How did the Young Master get this kind of amount?

When Old Mo saw the 1-star Master Alchemist badge from the inventory ring, it was already enough for him to understand what happened . At the very least, he had already the gist of it

Jin Rou only smiled at him in response .

Night .

Yuan Gu was already back and gathered Jin Rou and the others . He was feeling so tired but yet he decided to inform them first .

"I already reserved front row admissions for the upcoming competition . " Yuan Gu introduced, "However, there were some uhmm . . changes . . "

"Come on . Spill the beans!" Old Mo said in annoyance, "Your taking my Young Master's time for too long!"

"Can't you wait?" Yuan Gu glared at him . "Alright . "

"The painting competition will be held two days from now . "

"So soon?" Old Mo asked, "I thought it would still be several days before the competition . Why did they forward it at an earlier date?"

"I also don't know the details about it . " Yuan Gu answered .

"How unreliable of you!" Old Mo criticized, "What was the use of you going there if you are this unreliable?"



"You . . !" Yuan Gu almost fainted and vomit blood from hearing this .

These two were like they had an irreconcilable feud that they would kill each other off when they see each other . It was like they could not live under the same sky .

"Alright alright . That's enough, the of you . " Jin Rou calmed the situation down and looked at Yuan Gu, "Yuan Gu, please continue . I'm all ears . "

"Ahh . . " Yuan Gu paused for a moment and took a deep breath, "Although I do not know why they moved the competition at an earlier date, I suspect that it was probably because of Master Shao Gan's disciple, Zilang Mu . And the Painting Guild agreed to give Master Shao face . "

"Zilang Mu? The one said to be the strongest genius of the younger generation?" Ran Haoyu asked with widened eyes .

"Yes . They were already here . Probably because Zilang Mu could not bear to wait any longer and requested it to be moved at an earlier time . It was confirmed that Master Shao Gan will be overseeing the competition . " Yuan Gu said .

Hearing the word Shao Gan, Old Mo could not help but be in awe . Even this name reverberated in the Quu Empire! This name . . as someone proclaimed as everyone as the strongest cultivator and Mentor! But he had never heard of his disciple . But judging by this, it seemed that this Zilang Mu was kinda a character to actually dare to order that .

"And there's one more thing . . " Yuan Gu said in a low tone and looked apologetic,

"I registered Young Master Jin to participate for the Painting Competition . "

Hearing this, all of the three looked at Yuan Gu with widened and shocked eyes that almost their eyes were popping out from the sockets .

You what?!
