Chapter 333 - 332 – Mahayana Monk in the City



Xia Chao and the Green Serpent were both growing stronger in their own ways, reflecting the differences between humans and demonic creatures.

Humans focused on enlightenment and training, requiring time to grow stronger, while demonic creatures could rapidly increase their strength with enough resources from the heavens and earth.

Given that Jiang Li was supplying ample resources, it was normal for the Green Serpent to progress faster than Xia Chao.

Two months later.

Xia Chao slowly opened his eyes and looked inward at himself. His Golden Core was full and perfect, a paragon among First Order Golden Cores.

Xia Chao officially stepped into the Golden Core Stage.

An unexpected downpour began, causing passersby to curse the inaccurate weather forecast.

Some sensitive Covenant Beasts, however, detected an unusual scent in the rain that made them fearful, as if a supremely noble species was born.

“Has a Covenant Beast broken through to five stars?” Experienced Beast Tamers speculated from their Covenant Beasts’ reactions.

Both historical records and news speculation alluded to this scenario. When a Covenant Beast becomes a Five-Star, all other Covenant Beasts will be frightened and howl in fear.

“Who could it be?” The Beast Tamers were baffled. There was no warning; how could a Five-Star Covenant Beast suddenly emerge?

Furthermore, they couldn’t find out who had broken through to Five Star.

What the people didn’t know was that the Covenant Beasts weren’t panicking because a mysterious Covenant Beast had broken through to Five Stars, but because they sensed an awakening of the true Dragon Blood lineage – an instinctive repression.

The Green Serpent developed forelegs resembling eagle claws and his scales undulated more prominently. The edges of his scales gleamed golden, and his pupils were dazzling gold, akin to a divine deity that could exterminate all evil in the world, appearing noble and majestic.

He could no longer be referred to as the Green Serpent, but the Green Dragon.

The pouring rain was the Green Dragon’s deed, hinting at the true dragon’s ability to control clouds and rain.

“Many thanks to Lord White Emperor for guarding my path,” said the Green Dragon, with a soft voice, raising his two claws in a fist salute to the White Snow Spirit.

“It’s no big deal,” White Snow Spirit replied, watching the Green Serpent transform into a dragon, which gave him a sense of achievement, as if his own child had grown up.

Qiu Shi reached the peak of Foundation Establishment, while Bone Winged White Tiger reached the peak of Golden Core Stage. Both of them were slightly inferior to Xia Chao and the Green Dragon.

Xia Chao could be considered the greatest human warrior, while Qiu Shi was next.

The cultivation speed of these two men and beasts was unprecedented in Jiuzhou and could drop anyone’s jaw in surprise.

However, if they knew this was due to Jiang Li’s guidance, the surprise element might diminish.

Jiang Li appeared and announced the great news worth celebrating: “You guys are getting a day off.”

Jiang Li was not a devil after all; he understood the importance of a good balance between work and relaxation.

Xia Chao’s eyes gleamed even brighter than when he broke through to the Golden Core Stage.

He thought he had misheard. Was he actually getting a vacation?

Qiu Shi’s reaction wasn’t much different from Xia Chao’s. He had been following the same routine as Xia Chao for the past three months, both of them even attending Jiang Li’s lectures in their dreams.

“After a day, we’ll head to the Demonic Beast Forest for real-world combat training.”

In Jiang Li’s view, the previous fights with the demonic beasts were merely child’s play. True combat was to be experienced in the real world.

Even after hearing the latter part, the two remained excited. Regardless of where they were headed after the day of rest, even if it was hell, the one-day break was worth celebrating with fireworks.

Xia Chao took the Green Dragon to explore the city, and Jiang Li generously handed him a black card with no spending limit.

The White Snow Spirit looked at Jiang Li with a perplexed expression: “Where did you get this black card?”

White Snow Spirit knew that over the past three months, Jiang Li had been doing more than just training Xia Chao and Qiu Shi. He often left them in the training field while he went off to have fun.

Jiang Li grinned smugly, “In the past three months, I’ve done everything from gambling on stones to saving lives, combating evil, uniting the underworld and becoming a businessman rich enough to rival nations. I could even write a book titled ‘Mahayana Monk in the City.’”

“I’ll write it down and show you. You can check it out and see if it will be popular in Jiuzhou.”

“It’s a strange title, and it doesn’t sound appealing,” the White Snow Spirit showed no interest in the book.

Without any readers, Jiang Li decided not to write the book after all.

“Get me three portions of fried chicken.” Xia Chao was in need of some junk food. He had been craving fried chicken for three months.

While waiting for his chicken, Xia Chao carelessly handled a section of the marble counter and, without exerting any force, snapped off a large chunk.

Xia Chao was shocked. He inadvertently tightened his grip, and the stone in his hand crumbled like tofu.

Everyone was alarmed – what kind of incredible strength was this?

Especially the waitress, who thought she had encountered someone attempting to “dine and dash”.

No one has ever heard of someone pulling this on a fried chicken eatery before.

The waitress quickly called out for her boss.

“This…” Xia Chao was also surprised by his own strength. He hadn’t exerted any force, so how could the counter be so weak? It couldn’t possibly be this bad, even if they were skimping on materials.

Xia Chao soon realized, as a Golden Core Stage cultivator, his strength far surpassed that of the average person. This type of marble was as delicate as paper to him.

“I’ll pay, I’ll pay.” Xia Chao immediately offered an apologetic laugh and handed over his black card, unsure if the black card Jiang Li gave him would work here.

To the best of his knowledge, Xia Chao had never heard of a black card with an unlimited credit limit before.

Upon seeing the card, the boss was taken aback. Was this the legendary black card?

One swipe of the card and the balance confirmed the boss’s suspicions. The money was deducted but the balance remained a staggering, unchanged number.

The boss, not understanding and not daring to inquire further, respectfully returned the black card to Xia Chao.

As Xia Chao continued to stroll down the street, the Green Dragon draped around his neck attracted a lot of attention, as the Lingxi World had never seen a dragon before.

“Young man, is this your contracted beast? It looks quite impressive. Our young master took a liking to it. Name your price.” The burly bodyguard blocked Xia Chao’s path like a wall.

“Do you know who our young master is? The heir to the Ba Group!”

Despite being oblivious, even Xia Chao had heard of the prominent Ba Group, a titan that spanned across tourism, film, mining, food, and real estate. It was said that they could buy half a city with their wealth!

Naturally, Xia Chao would not hand over Xiao Qing: “Scram.”

“Reject a cup of wine offered out of respect and suffer the punishment!” A few bodyguards attacked Xia Chao with their three-star contract beasts, intending to snatch Xiao Qing away.

Xiao Qing was about to fight back, but Xia Chao stopped it.

“I’ll handle it.”

With Xia Chao’s astonishing strength and god-like agility, he quickly defeated these seemingly formidable contract beasts, leaving them unable to get up.

The bodyguards were stunned. A human had defeated contracted beasts – and three-star beasts at that. Was this guy even human?

Xia Chao didn’t let the bodyguards off either, beating them up until they were bruised all over, without using much force.

The bodyguards clung to each other and limped away in defeat.

“How dare he act so arrogant?” The heir of the Ba Group was sitting in their car, disturbed that not only did Xia Chao not show the desired creature, but he even dared to fight back.

“Could a person really be this strong? There must be a secret.” He considered sending their four-star contracted beasts after Xia Chao.

Knock, knock.

The car door was rapped on, and the heir frowned, lowering the window: “Who is it?”

An accomplished businessman stood there, proffering his business card.

The card read: General Manager, Jiuzhou Group.

The heir’s heart skipped a beat. The Jiuzhou Group, wasn’t that the mysterious powerhouse that recently emerged? With its fingers in both lawful and unlawful pies, and wealth beyond measure, it made the Ba Group seem like an elephant compared to an ant.

The successful businessman, true to his status, spoke politely: “Xia Chao is someone our Chairman has taken interest in. Please refrain from troubling him unnecessarily.”

The heir nodded rapidly, like a chicken pecking rice.
