Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1349: Chapter 1349: A Dagger

”No, no, Junior City Lord, you misunderstand. I didn’t intend to cause trouble; it’s just that this youngster publicly insulted our Liu Family, so I was preparing to teach him a lesson!”

Liu Family’s chief steward felt extremely reluctant, yet didn’t dare to show it, for it was rumored that the Nalan Family had connections with the City Lord’s Mansion!

It seems that today, this is indeed the case!

”Insult your Liu Family? What, is your Liu Family above being spoken about? Well, I’ll say it now, your Liu Family is worse than dog shit. What about it, do you also want to kill me along with them?”

Once the Junior City Lord spoke these words, the Liu Family’s chief steward was left speechless, and the surrounding people remained silent!

The Junior City Lord’s favoritism was more than obvious, but alas, he is the Junior City Lord, whatever he says, naturally, is the law!

”No, no, I wouldn’t dare, I absolutely wouldn’t dare!”

How could the Liu Family’s chief steward not see the favoritism from the Junior City Lord? But what could he do?

Could he really dare to provoke the Junior City Lord?

Wouldn’t that be seeking his own death?

Liu Family’s chief steward glared at Nalan Chen with venomous eyes, knowing that today there was no chance of killing Nalan Chen.

He could only slink away in defeat.

The Junior City Lord didn’t bother with him either, after all, his intervention was merely to leave a good impression on the Nalan Family.

The Nalan Family has relationships with the City Lord’s Mansion?

Actually, there is nothing of the sort. In truth, the Nalan Family has no connections with the City Lord’s Mansion whatsoever. Such rumors are only due to the Junior City Lord blatantly shielding the Nalan Family on several occasions.

As for the reason, it was because the Junior City Lord fancied Nalan Rou!

Fortunately, what the Junior City Lord wanted wasn’t just Nalan Rou’s person, but also her heart, which is why he had not resorted to force.

”All right, you two are fine now. In the future, it’s best not to provoke the people of the Liu Family!”

The Junior City Lord casually glanced at the two of them before heading off into the distance.

Perhaps, in the eyes of the Junior City Lord, apart from Nalan Rou, the other members of the Nalan Family didn’t warrant his attention, even Ye Luo, who had once been placed by his side as a spy for Nalan Rou!

Of course, it might also be precisely because Ye Luo was his spy that he didn’t want to have too much contact with him!

Seeing the chief steward of the Liu Family and the Junior City Lord both leave, Nalan Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, removing the restriction on Ye Luo but looking at him helplessly, shaking his head: ”Boy, don’t be so impulsive next time. You won’t always be this lucky to have such good fortune! Use your head more, don’t just focus on the anger of the moment!”

Ye Luo felt helpless. To be honest, he could not agree with Nalan Chen’s words. After all, in Ye Luo’s heart, it’s one thing whether one can beat an enemy, but the courage to resist is another matter!

Thus, he could not endorse Nalan Chen’s forbearance!

Of course, Ye Luo wouldn’t openly discredit Nalan Chen’s face on the spot, so for now, he just smiled silently.

Nalan Chen shook his head. He understood what Ye Luo meant, but it was precisely because of this understanding that he became even more suspicious about where exactly Ye Luo came from. Not even comprehending the most basic rules of the Martial Realm - the law of the Martial Realm is the survival of the fittest. Without strength, any defiance is simply courting death!

Both men continued toward the interior of the Weapon Alliance’s trading house with their respective thoughts, but they still needed to make the necessary purchases.

With the strength of the Nalan Family, indeed, they were not qualified to purchase overly powerful weapons.

But what Ye Luo saw, even the lowest-tier Spiritual Artifact with a single inscription, was incredibly powerful!

A one-inscription Spiritual Artifact!

It was the most common and basic weapon in the Martial Realm! Anything below this tier didn’t even qualify as a weapon in the Martial Realm. Yet, such a seemingly insignificant one-inscription Spiritual Artifact possessed a might that was no less than that of the Lingyun Sword!

Moreover, the weapons of the Martial Realm typically come enhanced with special Formations, and of course, an Instrument Soul is indispensable!

The Great Tang Empire is a technologically advanced cultivation nation, so the weapons of the Great Tang Empire also possess the unique characteristic of technological power!

It can be said that all the weapons in the Great Tang Empire have Instrument Souls that are actually miniature AIs!

That is to say, within the weapons resides a miniature computer. These miniature AIs can provide simple tactical analysis for their owners and are sometimes even more practical than normal Instrument Souls. However, compared to regular Instrument Souls, miniature AIs are less spirited. After all, they simply operate according to pre-set programs and cannot possess autonomous consciousness!

Furthermore, another notable feature is transformation!

Most weapons in the Martial Realm incorporate high-tech power.

Take for instance the longsword in Ye Luo’s hand right now!

At this moment, an attendant was introducing the longsword in Ye Luo’s hands to him.

”Young Master, please observe, this sword is named Thunderous Roar, a two-inscription Spiritual Artifact. Although the surface looks unremarkable, it actually contains an embedded lightning Formation that does not require any infusion of Spiritual Power. Instead, it automatically absorbs Spiritual Power from heaven and earth to convert into suitable lightning strength. When needed, it can be instantly activated!”

”Of course, if Young Master requires, you may also channel your own Spiritual Power to provide energy. The Thunderous Roar Sword can store energy for six lightning attacks, which can often result in significant effects during combat!”

”Rest assured, Young Master, the sword’s transformation feature is equally strong. You see, there is a lightning pattern engraving on the hilt—this lightning pattern engraving is actually the trigger for transformation. If you find your Spiritual Power depleted or insufficient during use, you need only press hard on this trigger, and the Thunderous Roar Sword will transform into a Thunderous Cannon Mount! Not only can it gather the power of heaven and earth more quickly to provide fire support, but it can also trigger a self-destruct at the most critical moment!”

...

As the attendant introduced the features, Ye Luo was quite shocked within. The weapons of the Martial Realm are truly divine artifacts. They even have such settings, and such ingenious craftsmanship shone before Ye Luo’s eyes.

Indeed, such weapons, if placed on Earth, would be of legendary status.

Of course, Ye Luo did not comment because he knew that there were many weapons in the Weapon Alliance’s trading house, and in fact, the Thunderous Roar Sword was not very suitable for Ye Luo. Lightning attacks?

If one encounters an enemy that surpasses oneself in strength, the only use of lightning power is to slightly paralyze the enemy upon impact, but hitting the enemy is not simple at all in actuality!

Therefore, the Thunderous Roar Sword wasn’t of much use to Ye Luo.

Paralyzing power? For Ye Luo, that was far inferior to his own Pupil Skill!

Ye Luo continued to browse other weapons, when suddenly, a silver-white short sword caught his attention. This short sword could even be considered a dagger!
