The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 201 - 201 Jing Yanʼs Domineering Presence [Third Update]

To this point and still snapping back!

Wang Yan might be considered a talent in her own right, huh?

In such a short span of time, even Zhong Chongyao was somewhat at a loss for words.

”Iʼve seen people with thick skins, but someone like you, Wang Yan, with such an audacious hide is truly rare. To tell the truth, my Jing Family has its share of thick-skinned members, like Jing Chunyu. But Jing Chunyuʼs shamelessness is nothing compared to yours,” Jing Yan said with a bitter laugh, frustration turning into amusement.

This woman repeatedly provoked and insulted him, and yet he was expected to keep tolerating it?

Did she really think she was invincible just because she was the manager of First Floor, that her status shielded her from all dangers, and that Jing Yan was helpless against her?

”You little bastard, what kind of tone is that when you speak?” Wang Yan, her face called out for being shameless, immediately glared at Jing Yan with wide, furious eyes.

”If you have such a thick face, let me thicken it a bit more!” Jing Yanʼs eyes flashed coldly, and in an instant, he was right in front of Wang

Yan.

”Slap!” With an effortless sweep of his hand, a slap sounded crisply.

Since this woman didnʼt care about saving face, there was no need to give her any.

Wang Yan was merely a martial artist at the Peak of Innate Middle Stage, and when faced with Jing Yanʼs swift action, she couldnʼt react in time. Jing Yanʼs movement, fueled by the Sky Wings Body Technique, was astoundingly fast. Even if Wang Yan had been at a

Late Innate Realm, she probably couldnʼt have dodged Jing Yanʼs slap, especially when caught off guard.

Reeling from Jing Yanʼs slap, Wang Yan was left utterly dumbfounded. This was inside the First Floor, after all!

And she was the manager of First Floor! Yet Jing Yan, an outsider, dared to slap her face right in the presence of Lord Building Owner?

She felt a burning on her face, along with a numbing sensation that seemed to swell.

Jing Yanʼs slap had not only stunned Wang Yan but Qin Yu as well. Although he was quite annoyed with Wang Yan, he never considered slapping her. Despite being stronger than her, he couldnʼt possibly strike the manager here. Yet Jing Yan did so without hesitation, with swift and decisive actions.

Even Building Owner Zhong Chongyao was somewhat taken aback as he watched Jing Yan.

Jing Yan, with his delicate appearance and seemingly refined demeanor, was the last person one would expect to promptly and cleanly slap the manager of First Floor.

And Wang Yan, a martial artist of Innate Middle Stage, didnʼt even make a move to dodge.

”You...”

”You dare to strike me?” After regaining her composure, rage seemed to erupt from Wang Yanʼs eyes.

She was furious beyond words, her Primordial Energy surging forth, ready to retaliate.

”Slap!”

Another crisp sound echoed through the air.

”I am hitting you!” Jing Yanʼs voice followed immediately.

This second slap directly extinguished the rolling Primordial Energy within Wang Yan. Wang Yan wasnʼt foolish; on the contrary, she was quite clever.

She had heard of Jing Yanʼs prowess and knew that he had killed Zhao Zhenyan, the City Lord Mansionʼs Clan Leader Zhaoʼs son. If the news was true, then it meant Jing Yan had the combat power of a Late Innate Realm martial artist. But to hear is to doubt, to see is to believe, and she had always been skeptical.

Now, however, she had a profound understanding of Jing Yanʼs strength!

If the first slap could be excused because she was caught off-guard, there was no such excuse for the second. She was prepared this time, saw his hand coming, and wished to dodge. And yet, she couldnʼt; she had no chance to avoid it at all.

What did this imply?

It meant that if Jing Yan wanted her dead, she would have no power to resist at all. Jing Yanʼs strength was far beyond her own.

With this realization, she promptly quieted down, clamping her mouth shut. She clearly understood that if she continued to retaliate, her end would be even more miserable.

”Finally quieted down?” Jing Yan squinted, his gaze fixed on Wang Yan.

Deep within Wang Yan, the humiliation was unbearable. Biting her lip, she stayed silent, her body trembling violently-an indicator of her intense, smoldering anger.

”Hmph!”

”If it werenʼt for the fact that youʼre the manager of First Floor, I would have killed you on the spot! Jing Familyʼs Jing Yan, I had no grievances with you before, right? Yet you have tried to step on me time and again. You thought I was an easy target, didnʼt you? Remember this, you brought this upon yourself. If you hadnʼt provoked me, none of this would have happened!” Jing Yan took a

small step back and stared at Wang Yan as he spoke.

”Young Master Jing Yan, is this really...” Building Owner Zhong

Chongyao frowned as he looked at Jing Yan.

No matter what, Wang Yan was his subordinate.

Jing Yan slapped Wang Yan right in front of him, which was no glory

on his face either.

”Lord Building Owner, I have no intention of targeting you or the Donglin First Building! I am simply a Martial Artist here to trade resources, yet I have been slandered by Wang Yan, the manager of the First Floor. If this is not intolerable, what is? I, Jing Yan, am someone

with a temper, and I surely cannot face Wang Yanʼs slander without any response, can I?” Jing Yan spoke to Zhong Chongyao without

groveling or arrogance.

”Wang Yan is indeed at fault, but as the Building Owner, I will certainly punish her,” Zhong Chongyao said, frowning.

”Lord Building Owner, if you wish to punish Wang Yan, thatʼs an internal matter for the First Floor. My slapping Wang Yan, thatʼs my

own affair,” Jing Yan said with a smile.

Domineering, confident!

With strength comes confidence!

If it were an ordinary person, even if offended by Wang Yan, they probably couldnʼt remain as calm as Jing Yan. At most, they would just find Zhong Chongyao, the Building Owner, and ask him to punish Wang Yan. But Jing Yan didnʼt endure. He could give Zhong Chongyao face, but he wouldnʼt let Zhong Chongyao suppress him completely. From the moment he entered the room, although Zhong Chongyao had also stood up upon seeing Jing Yan and been polite, his handling of the matter afterwards really disappointed Jing Yan. Jing Yan could see that Zhong Chongyao initially shared the same thoughts as Wang Yan, thinking that Jing Yanʼs seeking of Qin Yu was

looking for a shortcut or trying to take advantage, which unavoidably led to some disappointment in Jing Yan.

”Lord Building Owner, I have other matters to attend to, so I will take my leave now!” Jing Yan gave Wang Yan, who remained silent throughout, another look before bidding farewell to Zhong Chongyao. ”Manager Qin Yu, Iʼll take my leave first!”

”Wang Yan, if youʼre not satisfied, you can come find me at any time.

But I must remind you, if itʼs not within the First Floor, it wonʼt be that easy for you. If you have the guts, feel free to come seek revenge,” Jing Yan said with a smirk, before leaving.

Upon hearing this, Wang Yanʼs body trembled violently again.

After leaving the First Floor, Jing Yan returned within the Jing Family

Mansion, instructed the guards at the entrance of his private courtyard that no one should disturb him, then closed the door and entered the Qiankun Space to begin attempting to refine medicines.

”Low-level Healing Potion, success!”

”Intermediate Healing Potion, success!”

”High-level Healing Potion, success!”

”Low-level Detoxification Potion, success!”

One after another, the potions were quickly crafted by Jing Yan.

Jing Yan, although he had only had one experience in crafting potions

in the Sinful Canyon before this, now crafted these potions without a single failure.

When Jing Yan was crafting potions, it felt as though he had crafted countless potions before. The entire process was flowing smoothly, without the slightest hitch.

For an ordinary Pharmacist, the process of crafting medicine is incredibly complicated and requires utmost care. Even with a

prescription, itʼs not possible to succeed every time. Not to mention

Pharmacists, even Pill Masters cannot guarantee a 100% success rate in crafting potions.

Yet, Jing Yan could simultaneously craft multiple potions. For instance, with Healing Potions, Jing Yan could even craft ten at a time,

and all ten would be successful.

Not only was his success rate 100%, but the potency of his potions was also unsurpassed by ordinary potions of the same quality. Take the low-level Healing Potions as an example, the ones crafted by Jing Yan were significantly more effective than those available on the market, almost equivalent to an intermediate Healing Potion in effect.

On the market, a low-level Healing Potion typically costs one Spirit

Stone. A mid-grade Healing Potion usually goes for around five Spirit. Stones. Jing Yan felt that his low-level Healing Potions, priced at three Spirit

Stones, would be very popular. Even selling them for four Spirit Stones would likely result in good sales volumes.

This was definitely a huge profit! Time flew by, and more than ten days passed. During these days, Jing Yan spent most of his time crafting various

potions, and a smaller portion of time was used to cultivate and further improve his strength.

After more than ten days, Jing Yanʼs realm had reached the peak of the Early Innate Stage, and he was close to attempting advancement to the Innate Middle Stage.

However, Jing Yan was not in a hurry to advance; he still had some preparations to make.

One day, he took out the remaining eight Purple Incense Flowers.

During his time in the Sinful Canyon, Jing Yan obtained nine Purple Incense Flowers in total. He had used one while crafting a potion to

assist Ninth Layer Heaven Martial Artists to advance to the Innate, leaving eight remaining.

If all went well, these eight Purple Incense Flowers could be used to craft eight vials of that type of potion. ”First, letʼs craft this defy-the-heavens potion,” Jing Yanʼs eyes shimmered. ”This potion has no name, letʼs just call it the Holy Spirit

Potion.”

Jing Yan gave this potion a name.

The materials needed for this potion were mostly not very precious. Indeed, only the Purple Incense Flower could not be normally purchased. Aside from the Purple Incense Flower, the total value of

the other Spiritual Grass Materials added up to around two thousand Spirit Stones. Jing Yan believed that once the Holy Spirit Potion was crafted, its price should at least reach tens of thousands of Spirit Stones, right?

The various family clans in Donglin City had a very strong desire for the emergence of Innate Strong People within their families. With the Holy Spirit Potion, the chances for their familyʼs Ninth Layer Heaven Martial Artists to advance could be greatly increased. Who wouldnʼt want to desperately buy it?
