Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

All they saw was a young man asking the innkeeper a question, followed by the innkeeper “shamefully” lowering his head to respond.

As soon as the word “yes” left his lips, the innkeeper felt as if a heavy pressure had been lifted from his body.

The trembling spirit soul and the great will that he experienced just moments ago felt like illusions, and only the soaked shirt on his back reminded him that what he had just experienced was indeed genuine.

With just a single sentence holding such tremendous power, the innkeeper immediately realized that the seemingly frail young man before him must be an extraordinary figure, on par with the ancient ancestors of blessed lands of the major sects.

His weak state was likely because he was suppressing his true strength to deal with the rules of this world.

Thinking about how he could have provoked such an important figure due to the greed of an errand runner disciple, the innkeeper smacked the waiter in the face with a force that left him stunned.

“You fool, don’t you think you should apologize to our esteemed guest?”

The waiter immediately dropped to his knees, slapping his face and pleading feebly, “I was momentarily blinded by the benefits before my eyes, I beg for your forgiveness, please spare me this time!”

Bai Xue’s face revealed a delighted expression, among the people here, the one she wished most to teach a lesson was this waiter who had stolen her money.

Seeing his contrite expression now, she happily extended her little paw.

The innkeeper again slapped the waiter’s face with a smack.

‘ ‘What are you waiting for? Hand over everything you’ ve been skimming, “he ordered.

The waiter stammered in fear, “Th…the things I… I have already sold them.”

Bai Xue’s eyebrows furrowed, immediately becoming furious.

However, Shen Yuan just glanced at the innkeeper and said indifferently,

“Take him away, handle it according to your rules.”

The innkeeper on hearing this quickly showed a smile to Shen Yuan and respectfully replied,

“We’ll surely give a satisfactory answer to the guest,”

“Because of this event today that dampened our guest’s mood, from now on, if our guest stays at the Moon Viewing Inn, the room cost will be waived.”

While saying this, the innkeeper hastily took the waiter and hurried downstairs, as if avoiding something.

Qin Yuewu stared blankly at the departing innkeeper, a sense of foreboding arising in his heart.

Moments ago he seemed to have the upper hand with people from the Moon Viewing Chamber backing him up. But now they had left, leaving him alone to confront Xue Mingzhi and others, which made him have second thoughts.

“Do you want this room?”

Shen Yuan’s nonchalant voice echoed in the hallway.

Qin Yuewu felt a shake in his heart and instinctively spoke his thoughts at the sight of Shen Yuan.

“Who would want this rotten room? I only saw that it was full of Spirit Energy and that there must be treasures inside. And with only a small cat guarding it, I thought if I could forcibly take over this room, I might be able to get the treasures…”

Halfway through his words, Qin Yuewu instantly clapped his mouth shut, his eyes full of horror as he realized he had just revealed his innermost plans.

The power elicited by that seemingly bland question far surpassed his understanding and was beyond comprehension.

Upon hearing this, Xue Mingzhi’s eyes narrowed, and a cold smile appeared on his face:

“You, as the vice-captain of the Western Army, are actually coveting others’ treasures. I will definitely report this when I return to the Imperial Capital. The general will surely dismiss you from the Western Army.

Not only you, but the one who recommended you will also be investigated. Your good days are yet to come!”

” l!!!” Qin Yuewu tried to argue back, but Shen Yuan’s voice sounded again.

“If you’re done creating a scene, it’s time to leave!”

The words sounded like a divine edict, and Qin Yuewu felt as if he had been struck by thunder, unable to move a single muscle in his body.

He could only fall helplessly onto the ground and start rolling down the stairs, presenting an extremely embarrassing sight.

The clear sound of collision echoed through the stairwell, while Hoe Yu, who had come up with Qin Yuewu, looked at him in surprise and carefully began rolling down the stairs as well.

“Ha ha ha, I didn’t expect such a fool to exist within the Western Army.”

Behind Xue Mingzhi, a tall and robust young man dressed lavishly burst into laughter.

If this had happened earlier, Xue Mingzhi would have been interested in arguing with him, but now he had no interest in opening his mouth at all.

Stepping in front of Shen Yuan, Xue Mingzhi respectfully bowed and said, “Greetings, Teacher Shen.”

Shen Yuan glanced at Xue Mingzhi and nodded, “You’ve performed very well.”

Xue Mingzhi was overjoyed at hearing these words of praise, which for him was more satisfying than any miracle remedy.

Turning around, he picked up Bai Xue and went inside the room. Shen Yuan casually said, “Come in.”

Xue Mingzhi quickly followed him into the room. The two nobly-dressed men behind him looked at each other, deep confusion flashing in their eyes.

“What is Xue Mingzhi up to?”

Their relations with Xue Mingzhi were just passable, and only after he broke through the Qi Transformation Stage could he join their circle as one of them.

But seeing Xue Mingzhi suddenly behaving so respectfully towards an unknown youth left them somewhat baffled.

After a brief hesitation, the two men stepped into the room.

The Moon Viewing Inn had six floors. The higher the floor, the better the space, decor, and concentration of Spirit Energy in the room.

The room that Shen Yuan occupied seemed quite small to them, and the decoration was very ordinary. The only praiseworthy feature was the pure concentration of Spirit Energy.

However, as the door was opened earlier, the Spirit Energy swiftly dissipated, turning out not much stronger than outside, which disappointed them a bit.

Inside the room, Shen Yuan was at the table pouring tea, while Xue Mingzhi was standing on the spot, rather reserved.

In fact, Shen Yuan had already noticed the commotion outside when Qin Yuewu and others arrived. However, he was at a critical moment in comprehending the Gods Purging Divine Power and didn’t have time to attend to it.

The bullying by Qin Yuewu and his associates, and the timely intervention by Xue Mingzhi, was all observed by Shen Yuan. He finished comprehending the Gods Purging Divine Power only after a delay of some time.

The main ability of the Gods Purging Divine Power is to control gods, but its use is not singular.

In Shen Yuan’s view, the Gods Purging Divine Power somewhat embodies the mandating orders of heaven and earth, with his word being law to all beings.

However, the Gods Purging Edict is not very effective for ordinary beings. It’s difficult to use when the opponent’s cultivation base is higher by a certain level.

When dealing with incense offering deities, the Gods Purging Edict can be used across several realms, infinitely handy.

When confronting the innkeeper of the Moon Viewing Inn earlier, Shen Yuan used a touch of the Truth of Word Spirit in the Gods Purging Edict to inquire about the truth.

Under the effect of the Truth of Word Spirit, the innkeeper dared not lie and was forced to tell the truth.

When reprimanding Qin Yuewu, it was also the effect of the Truth of Word Spirit that made him unable to control himself.

In addition, the Truth of Word Spirit can imprint the opponent’s Spirit Soul, making it difficult for the opponent to bear animosity towards the person who applied the Truth of Word Spirit.

Although both Qin Yuewu and the innkeeper were insignificant in Shen Yuan’s eyes, Shen Yuan didn’t want to add trouble over such a trivial matter.

After filling up the tea cup, Shen Yuan lightly waved his sleeve, allowing the Mana to gently land the cup in front of Xue Mingzhi.

“Sit.”

Xue Mingzhi then respectfully sat down, and in a restrained manner said:

“It’s been half a month since our last parting, and I didn’t expect to see you here.”

Seeing the once proud genius youth appearing so constrained, Shen Yuan couldn’t help but chuckle.

“I am not some man-eating old demon, there is no need for such restraint.

I should thank you for the invitation you sent last time, allowing me to come to this Yunfu Fair.”

Xue Mingzhi shook his head repeatedly: “You flatter me. Given your abilities, obtaining an invitation is just a matter of a single sentence.”

The two youngsters were amazed to see the always proud Xue Mingzhi behaving like a child before a private tutor, in Shen Yuan’s presence.

Xue Mingzhi quickly came to his senses, stood up and introduced the two young men:

“Teacher Shen, these two young men are my good friends, Qi Renyu and Jiang Meng.”

Shen Yuan gave a faint nod and then covered his mouth with his right hand, letting out a cough.

Even after two days of recuperation, the burns from the Sun True Flame still remained on his Primordial Spirit.

This kind of injury caused by the Qi of heaven and earth could not be suppressed by ordinary means. Shen Yuan would find it difficult to use the Earth Fiend Sword Art for a short period.

However, the Gods Purging Edict is sufficient for self-protection and even excels in certain situations over the Earth Fiend Sword Art.

Only then did Xue Mingzhi notice that Shen Yuan’s face was somewhat pale, and his energy fluctuating irregularly. He couldn’t help but express surprise: “Teacher Shen, what happened?”

Facing Xue Mingzhi, Shen Yuan didn’t intend to hide anything:

“I got into a fight with some old bastard on the way to the Yunfu Fair, and got a bit injured.”

At these words from Shen Yuan, Xue Mingzhi instantly displayed a shocked expression.

He was very clear about what kind of person Shen Yuan was, who could actually fight Shen Yuan and cause him injury.

Despite Shen Yuan’s casual words, Xue Mingzhi realized that it must have been an earth-shattering battle.

“It’s a pity that I didn’t spend enough time in the Yunfu Mountains. I didn’t gather enough information about this place.

Maybe this big battle took place in the Yunfu Mountains. If I were to inquire, I might find relevant clues!”

Xue Mingzhi was secretly startled, but sensibly, he didn’t ask for specifics, instead changing the topic:

“I’m wondering if you’ll be participating in tonight’s trading fair?”

“Trading fair?” Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, looking curious.

Seeing Shen Yuan’s reaction, Xue Mingzhi hurriedly explained:

“Previously, the battle between the monster hordes of Yunfu and the Zhennan Army had a very negative effect on the opening of the Yunfu Fair. To quell this negative impact, Mount Laojun united several major sects to host this trading fair.

Not only are there natural treasures produced in the Yunfu Mountains at the fair, but even the ancient treasures accumulated in the grotto heavens blessed land over countless years.

Many cultivators spend a fortune to buy admission to the Yunfu Fair, just to participate in this trading fair.”

“It’s said that Mount Laojun has even offered a part of Qi from Heaven and Earth for this trading fair!”
