So It's an Internal Matter of the Wang Family. So What? What Are You Trying to Say? (Bonus Chapter!)
Lu Family Manor.
A classic two-story building.
Ning Chuan lay flat on the bed, Martial Seal bearing the " Sound-Sealing Barrier " affixed to his forehead, receiving the inheritance.
Although this martial art is a support-type skill, it is quite effective.
It can isolate various types of waves, including sound waves and electromagnetic waves.
Ning Chuan keenly realized that the combination of the Divine Concealment Technique and the Sound-Sealing Barrier had an effect greater than the sum of its parts.
Sound-Sealing Barrier isolates the area from external perception.
The Divine Concealment Technique makes targets within the barrier undetectable.
It's no exaggeration to say...
It's entirely possible to kill someone silently!
After a long while.
The tradition has ended.
As soon Ning Chuan removed the Martial Seal, a series of notification sounds rang in his mind.
" The Sound-Sealing Barrier sensed a similarity to Dark Night Abyss's insights and began absorbing them, causing its cultivation speed to skyrocket!"
"Progress increased by 20%!"
"Progress continues to improve!"
"Having accumulated enough Sound-Sealing Barrier and gained some insights, I've advanced to the Proficiency Realm!"
"Progress increased by 18%!"
Upon hearing this, Ning Chuan seemed to understand.
Sound-Sealing Barrier and the Dark Night Abyss are, to some extent, inclined towards control, and do indeed have similarities.
"Progress increased by 18%!"
"Having accumulated enough Sound-Sealing Barrier and gained some insights, I've broken through to the Mastery Realm!"
"Progress continues to accelerate!"
" The Sound-Sealing Barrier has been fully absorbed; cultivation speed has returned to normal!"
The final notification tone faded.
Ning Chuan's mind raced, and a semi-transparent, fluorescent interface appeared in his vision.
One of the columns.
[ Sound-Sealing Barrier ]: Progress ( Mastery 36%)
Ning Chuan shook his head inwardly.
Whether it's Awakening martial arts or Force martial arts, the Minute Subtlety Realm is a huge watershed, vastly different from the Mastery Realm.
"Fortunately, with the Spirit-Nourishing Liquid in Wei Huasheng's spatial ring, I still have more than seventy drops left. This will allow me to cultivate my mental martial arts at more than ten times the speed. Before the Spirit-Nourishing Liquid runs out, I should be able to reach the Minute Subtlety Realm of the Sound-Sealing Barrier, and I can advance the Divine Concealment Technique to the Mastery Realm."
Ning Chuan made a mental calculation.
As for the Dark Night Abyss and Blood Soul Needle, both are nearing Perfection, but progress is slow.
It will take several years to reach 100% completion.
With a flick of his left hand, Ning Chuan took out a bottle of Spirit-Nourishing Liquid and drank it down in one gulp.
immediately.
A notification sound in my mind urging me to accelerate the cultivation of the four mental martial arts techniques.
Ning Chuan smiled silently.
Around 2 PM.
Ning Chuan felt that the luncheon should be over, so he got up and left the small building.
As soon as I stepped out the door, I saw Butler Bei running towards me, his hair soaked with sweat and clinging to his forehead in clumps.
"Mr. Ning... something terrible has happened!"
The Butler Bei, breathless from running, hurriedly said, "Miss Mengyue is arguing with those young people from the Wang Family's opposition!"
Ning Chuan calmly asked, "Where?"
"Banquet Hall!"
Butler Bei quickly recounted, "After lunch, Blood Edge Divine General and Young Master Lu Zhan chatted happily and didn't leave. The young people got bored, so they held a dance party in the banquet hall."
Ning Chuan calmed his mind and focused his attention on perceiving the sound.
His hearing, already sharpened by the tempering of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Scripture, has reached an inhuman level with the continuous nourishment from the Spirit-Nourishing Liquid in recent days.
If Ning Chuan wanted, he could detect every sound in the Lu Family manor, which spanned thousands of acres, even the sound of mice chewing cheese.
You could even vaguely make out how many teeth the rat was using!
In the blink of an eye, Ning Chuan sensed the sound coming from the banquet hall. His dark eyes flashed and turned cold.
Whoosh!
A sharp gust of wind rang out, and Ning Chuan's figure disappeared from the Butler Bei's sight.
now.
Banquet hall.
Melodious music echoed in the hall, the luxurious crystal chandelier emitted a warm glow, and a brand-new, soft red carpet was laid on the floor.
But the atmosphere was unusually tense.
The waiters and maids stood tense on the sidelines, not daring to make a sound, trembling with fear.
Many of the younger members of the Wang Family, however, were quite relaxed, forming a circle to watch the spectacle.
" Lu Mengyue, it's just asking you to dance, isn't it a bit much to be so rude!"
Wang Longyun's tone was sarcastic and unpleasant.
Lu Mengyue's pretty face turned cold as she said, "I've already explained to you that I'm not used to dancing with strangers."
Wang Longyun scoffed, his expression disdainful.
Beside him, Wang Longtao chimed in, "You're going to be the protector of the Wang Family from now on. If you're not even willing to dance, how can you be expected to risk your life for the Wang Family in the future!"
Lu Mengyue was quick-witted and seized upon his loophole, questioning, "According to you, not dancing with you makes one an unqualified protector!"
Wang Longtao's expression changed.
The Wang Family's protectors are an extremely powerful force, starting with Knight and led by a Divine General.
He really didn't dare admit it.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Wang Longyun interrupted the conversation, his gaze fixed on Lu Mengyue, and said coldly, "I'm asking you to dance, and you're going to refuse, is that it?"
Yes, what do you want?
After being provoked repeatedly, Lu Mengyue, despite her good nature, lost her friendly tone.
Wang Longyun glanced at her and said sarcastically, "You have no right to be proud!"
Does he really think he has the Supreme Physique?!
You probably know better than I how you acquired your Star God Physique!
Wang Ya sacrificed half her lifespan to give this to you!
Upon hearing this, Lu Mengyue's pretty face paled slightly.
Lu Zhan didn't mention anything about lifespan, only telling her that it was some kind of forbidden technique.
Wang Longtao said with a sneer, "Without Wang Ya's Star God Physique, you're just an ordinary eighteen-year-old Martial Artist."
If he were outside the public eye, he might be considered a genius.
But in the Wang Family, among your peers, you're only ranked last!
Wang Ke, somewhat displeased, stepped forward, blocking Lu Mengyue, and snapped, "You lot, shut up!"
Wang Longyun curled his lip, nonchalantly saying, " Sister Ke, it's not that I'm being unreasonable. I just politely asked her to dance. Is that too much to ask?"
Wang Longtao's gaze fell on Lu Mengyue's face, and he said, "Whether you want to dance this dance with Longyun or not, you have to!"
"The competition among the younger generation of the Wang Family is extremely fierce. With your undeveloped Supreme Physique, if anyone wants to suppress you, it will be incredibly difficult for you, causing minor injuries every three days and serious injuries every five days!"
Wang Longtao said in a sinister voice, making a direct threat.
There were many young members of the Lu Family in the hall, and they were furious when they heard these words.
However, the Lu Family's higher-ups had specifically instructed them not to offend the young members of the Wang Family.
Wang Ke frowned slightly, about to reprimand someone, when he suddenly heard a cold, icy voice coming from the doorway.
"Then you try making one!"
A young man in military uniform walked into the banquet hall. His face was stern, and his steel boots made a heavy sound on the soft carpet, exuding a chilling aura.
Upon seeing the person approaching, Wang Longtao's heart skipped a beat. Recalling the horrific scene from the Ultimate Weapon Art assessment, he subconsciously averted his gaze.
But then he realized that he was no longer alone.
" Ning Chuan, stop putting on airs about being a peerless genius!"
Wang Longtao glared fiercely at Ning Chuan and said sternly, "I'm reminding you, this is an internal matter of the Wang Family!"
"I see..."
Ning Chuan said calmly, walked closer, and swung a kick like a battle axe, swift and unparalleled, landing with a thud on Wang Longtao's face.
Large amounts of blood splattered.
Amidst the many dramatic gazes, Ning Chuan's right foot, along with Wang Longtao's face, plummeted down, pinning him firmly to the floor.
The steel soles of the shoes crushed Wang Longtao's skin, leaving it a bloody mess.
At this moment, Ning Chuan bent down, looked down at him, and said with a hint of doubt in his tone:
So, what are you trying to say?
