The Gate Of Good Fortune c1-905

  As for the short man beside her, needless to say he was also a disciple of the Celestial Globe 7 Star Academy. But at this time he was wearing a Jia Continent’s cultivator army uniform, it clearly showed that he had chosen become a cultivator soldier for the Jia Continent. Ning Cheng could see from the card on his shoulder, that he was named Lao Sheng, and was a 2 Star Second Lieutenant.

  Although Ning Cheng had only recently joined the Jia Continent’s cultivator army, but he had stayed inside the cultivator army barracks for a long time, as such he was well aware of the ranking of the officers.

  For an ordinary soldier, who had just joined the cultivator army, he would only have a shoulder card without any stars. Only after gaining a certain amount of military exploits, would they be qualified to be promoted to the rank of a red coloured 1 Star Soldier. After that was the orange coloured 2 Star Second Lieutenant. Then a yellow coloured 3 Star Senior Captain.

  After that came the ranks of green coloured 4 Star Junior Marquis and green coloured 4 Star Senior Marquis, after which was the 5 Star Rank which was that of the Junior Commander who held a cyan coloured shoulder card. Then came the rank of 6 Star, which were for the Generals and was blue in colour, such as that worn by Kong Pengpeng.

  Lao Sheng was just a 2 Star Second Lieutenant. While he was already a 5 Star Junior Commander, the distance was simply too far. Moreover, Ning Cheng could easily guess why Lao Sheng, who was a disciple from a 7 Star Academy, would join the Jia Continent’s cultivator army, this guy was definitely here for the Law’s Way.

  Because of the re-distribution of the quotas of the Law’s Way, the Yi Xing Ocean had taken the spots of 400 people. Of the rest of the 600 spots, 300 of those spots were given to the 9 Continent’s cultivator army, while the rest of the 300 spots were given to the people from the High Ranked Academies of the 9 Continents. This Lao Sheng knew that he would not be able to get a spot in his own Academy, which was why he decided to join the cultivator army, his main purpose was to get one of the spots.

  “You are not dead?” Lao Sheng looked quizzically at Ning Cheng for a few times, as if he himself could not believe what he was seeing. If Ning Cheng was wearing his uniform, then he could easily guess that Lao Sheng would not dare to speak to Ning Cheng in such a tone.

  At this moment, there was a very strange expression on Yong Guyun’s face, as such he was not able to guess what was going on in her mind. Moreover, she could not even see Ning Cheng’s cultivation, but she had a feeling that after each time she saw Ning Cheng, Ning Cheng’s cultivation seemed to be a lot different from before.

  Ning Cheng simply did not pay any mind to Lao Sheng, at this point even if was the Celestial Globe Academy’s old man surnamed Kang, even if he was from a 7 Star Academy, he did not fear him, so why would he fear a trivial Lao Sheng? What he paid more attention to was that Yong Guyun.

  “Ning Cheng, how dare you, when a Pu Bu Island’s military officer talks to you, you should give a respectful salute. You insolent man, do you want to go to the Pu Bu Island’s prison that badly?” Lao Sheng cried out in a harsh manner.

  He knew that he himself was not an opponent of Ning Cheng, and as such he could only dare to use his tongue in such a manner. But he also was aware that Ning Cheng was absolutely a fearless guy that was not afraid of anything. He did not even hesitate to kill the most important disciples of the Red Heaven Academy. If in a one in a million chance, Ning Cheng disregarded the consequences and killed him, then even if Ning Cheng were to be turned into ash later, he knew that he would have already lost the chance to live.

  “Shut the fuck up. If you dare to even speak out even a single word from now on, I will definitely slap you into nihility.” Ning Cheng spoke up calmly as he swept a glance at Lao Sheng, then once again returned his gaze towards Yong Guyun.

  Lao Sheng secretly shuddered as cold sweat poured out of him, but he did not dare to even make a single sound again.

  Yong Guyun saw Ning Cheng staring at her, and even Lao Sheng did not dare to speak up in front of him, she could only give a salute to him in and speak in a trembling voice, “This one greets Senior Apprentice Brother Ning.”

  Ning Cheng spoke in a ridiculing way, “One must not paste gold atop one’s face, when was I ever your Senior Apprentice Brother, moreover I dare not try to become friends with this kind of

  Bai Fu Mei

  . But since I have met you today, I just want to ask you something. At the time when you came out of the Angry Axe Valley, Cang Shuo along with Yue Ying and the others, what happened to them?”

  Ying Guyun did not know what Ning Cheng meant when he said those words ‘Bai Fu Mei’, and as such quickly spoke up, “They were in the Jia Continent, but did not stay there for long before they were picked up and taken away by the people from the Wu Nian Academy.”

  When Ning Cheng heard that Yue Ying was alright, he felt relieved in his heart. He simply ignored the two people once again, and continued on with his window shopping.

  When Lao Sheng saw that Ning Cheng did not even bother to deal with him, he immediately felt a bit relieved. But then he immediately spoke in a very uncomfortable manner, “Dares to be so arrogant in the Pu Bu Island, see how I take care of him.”

  Yong Guyun hesitated, and then spoke up, “Senior Apprentice Brother Lao, I think that this Ning Cheng does not seem to be very simple. It would be better to not provoke him.”

  Although Yong Guyun was very unhappy with Ning Cheng, but after thinking of a few things, she suddenly found that no matter how unhappy she felt because of Ning Cheng, people like him not only lived well, but even their cultivations would also rise higher and higher. After coming out of the Angry Axe Valley, this Yong Guyun had held an unspeakable fear towards this Ning Cheng.

  “Don’t mess with him? This place here is the Pu Bu Island, I’ll let him know the might of a 2 Star Second Lieutenant of the Pu Bu Island.” Lao Sheng spoke up as he felt a bitter hate well up in heart as he looked at the disappearing back of Ning Cheng.

  Yong Guyun knew this Lao Sheng’s temper, as such she did not dare to speak anything more. But there was a bit of dissociation in her eyes, although she had joined the Celestial Globe 7 Star Academy, but she discovered that this was not what she had wanted for herself at all. She did not even have time to cultivate, nor did she even feel the joy of becoming a disciple of a 7 Star Academy. Now that she had arrived here, wherever Lao Sheng went, she must also follow. If not for the excuse that she had not yet achieved True Condensation, she would have perhaps already ascended this Lao Sheng.

  “Yi……” Suddenly Lao Sheng jumped up in surprise.

  “How about we go and try to look for General Lao at once?” As Yong Guyun recovered, she quickly proposed a suggestion

  Lao Sheng quickly waved his hands and said, “This type of minor matter is not something where we would need to ask my uncle, even if it was not a trivial matter, for my uncle to intervene in my place would not be correct for me to earn a place for myself here. I just saw Junior Marquis Duan, he is the one in front of us.”

  “It really is Junior Marquis Duan.” Yong Guyun hurriedly spoke up, since she had joined the cultivator army along with Lao Sheng, their residence and everything else, was all arranged for them by this Junior Marquis Duan in front of them.

  “Come on, let’s go ask Junior Marquis Duan for help. Junior Marquis Duan has a debt towards my Uncle, and has a rank that is just under the four Senior Marquis Battalions under my Uncle, moreover he is also a Profound Congealing Cultivator. If we use him to go against Ning Cheng, then wouldn’t it be as easy as pinching an ordinary ant? Haha, I’ll have to look at him as he begs for mercy on his knees………”

  ……

  Ning Cheng stopped, he saw a pet beast in front of a pet beast stall that was in front of him. Rather to speak more accurately, it was a grey puppy not larger in size than two of his palms put together. Although this thin grey thing was awfully ugly to look at, but this puppy gave a very strange feeling to Ning Cheng.


  This little puppy seemed to be staring at him, and truthfully his eyes really looked pitiful to look at, it was as if it’s eyes were crying out with an earnest desire and longing.

  Seeing the puppy’s pitiful expression, Ning Cheng could actually understand its feeling. In this Pu Bu Island almost everyone had a pet beast, moreover some people’s pet beasts can even help them in combat. But once the pet beast fell out of favour, they would immediately be discarded or sold out. These discarded or sold pet beasts, would then soon become the cuisine of ordinary cultivators.

  What Ning Cheng could not understand was that this street was full of many people that were moving about here and there, but even then this puppy just stared at him.

  Ning Cheng had just made his way to this pet beast stall, when a military officer with a very robust body quickly moved past him, and immediately squatted with the intention of stroking the puppy with his hand.

  The puppy immediately cried out in alarm, and subconsciously stepped back, but unfortunately it was still in a cage and tied up.

  “Hey Hey, this one is really conscious, this puppy I really want to take it.” The cultivator officer gave out a loud laugh, it was apparent that he was becoming even more interested in this grey puppy.

  “Yi Yi……” This puppy’s voice was very strange. Ning Cheng thought that this was definitely not the sound of a puppy. When it heard that that burly man wanted to buy it, it caused it to bark non-stop, moreover its voice was full of anxiety and unease.

  Ning Cheng noticed that even though this puppy was barking, but its eyes were still looking at him, and it even seemed that it wanted him to buy it.

  Ning Cheng suddenly thought of Ruolan, if there was a chance to return to the Earth in the future, then he might as well bring this pet dog along with him for Ruolan. Thinking of this till here, he also finally came over, before this pet owner even had the time to quote his price, he immediately spoke up, “I want to buy this puppy, what is your price?”

  The strong and robust cultivator officer suddenly stood up, as he stared at Ning Cheng and yelled at Ning Cheng in an angry voice, “Are you really blind ah, didn’t you see that this Junior Marquis wants to…….”

  This Junior Marquis was already a Profound Congealing Cultivator, but at this moment his words suddenly stopped as if they were a flowing water source that was cut off. When he saw Ning Cheng, he immediately recognized who Ning Cheng was.

  Lao Sheng, since he had just arrived at the Pu Bu Island, was not familiar with Ning Cheng’s accomplishments, but for the top level cultivator officers of the Pu Bu Island, many of them had already come to learn of accomplishments performed by Ning Cheng. Ning Cheng had killed a noble from the Yi Xing Ocean, and had robbed his Black-Silver Warship. And then again made his way to the Hua Continent on this very same Black-Silver Warship, and successfully killed eight Profound Core Cultivators. Moreover, he had even successfully completely annihilated the Yi Xing Ocean’s cultivator forces that had invaded the Hua Continent.

  With regards to Ning Cheng not personally killing the eight Profound Core Cultivators, it was already not important, what was more important was that Ning Cheng had made his way back to the Pu Bu Island all by himself, and was now already a 5 Star Junior Commander of the Yi Zheng Battalion.

  In terms of official position, or anything else, a Profound Congealing Cultivator with the title of Junior Marquis simply had no background in front of Ning Cheng and could only behave as a grandchild in front of their strict grandparents.

  “Am I the one blind, or are you the one who is blind?” Ning Cheng coldly stared at this Profound Congealing Cultivator and asked just a single sentence. He had previously intended to make this purchase from this Profound Congealing Cultivator but he had never thought that this guy would jump three feet high like an animal.

  This Profound Congealing Cultivator’s back immediately broke out in cold sweat, at this moment he really believed that the stories he had heard of Ning Cheng were not at all false at all. To say nothing about the true or false about Ning Cheng killing Profound Core Cultivators, Ning Cheng killing a Profound Congealing Cultivator from the Yi Xing Ocean was already witnessed by a lot of people, and as such he knew that all of those people would not be speaking lies about such a matter. Even if all these things were false, General Kong Pengpeng’s appreciation of this Junior Commander Ning was definitely not false.

  “It turned out to be Junior Commander Ning, I was blind, I really was blind. Junior Commander wants to buy this pet beast, ah, Junior Commander must have come to pick it up.” Although this Profound Congealing Cultivator looked robust, but since he knew about Ning Cheng’s background, he immediately took the appearance of a grandchild currying favour from their grandparents.

  Ning Cheng simply did not pay any attention to this guy. Such kinds of people were aplenty in the Pu Bu Island. He picked up the cage with the small grey puppy and asked again, “What’s the price?”

  “10 Low Grade Spirit Stones.” The owner spoke with some fear. He could see that this 4 Star Junior Marquis Officer in front of him was speaking as if he was the grandson of Ning Cheng, so when he replied to Ning Cheng, he was somewhat nervous and afraid.

  Lao Sheng who was hurrying over, when he saw a scene like this in front of him, was immediately dumbstruck like a wooden chicken. He was already prepared to use this Junior Marquis Duan to vent his own anger, but he had not expected that this Junior Marquis Duan would act like a scared grandchild in front of all the people. Moreover, he had even heard the words of this Junior Marquis Duan, and came to know that this Ning Cheng was already a Junior Commander. Since they had come out of the Angry Axe Valley, how much time had even passed? How did this guy jump through ranks this quickly?

  Yong Guyun’s complexion once again changed by quite a bit. Even if she regarded herself to be slick and smooth, she did not think that a man like Ning Cheng would ever become a Junior Commander in the cultivator army. Her feelings were sure enough right, every time she saw Ning Cheng who she thought was just about to be trampled under their foot, but in the end, the one’s being trampled were in fact they themselves.

  Looking at Lao Shao who had spoken something in a low voice before he turned around and was slinking away in a state of dejection, Yong Guyun had a strong impulse, even though Ning Cheng had a Hybrid Spiritual Root, to go up and make friends with him. She knew that she could no longer look down upon Ning Cheng. She also knew that he did not have any relationship with that Su Zhu who slept around, but as long as she could help her, then it would only to be her advantage, and would be more than worthy for her to become friends with him.

  But she was more than aware that Ning Cheng would definitely not have her. Finally, after giving out a long dejected sigh, she also turned away to leave.

  Ning Cheng already had known that Lao Sheng had been following him. But he simply did not care about him who was just a red coloured 2 Star Second Lieutenant. He simply took out the 10 Low Grade Spirit Stones paid for the puppy. This was the first time for him to buy a puppy, so as soon as he bought it, he immediately removed the puppy’s cage.

  “Although this pet beast looks gentle, but it is actually very fierce, do not remove the cage……” When the owner saw Ning Cheng readily opening the cage, he hastily went ahead to put in a word to remind Ning Cheng. But just as he found that the pet beast was now without a cage, it immediately ran around Ning Cheng’s feet. The following words that he wanted to speak up simply could not be justified.

  Ning Cheng just smiled and left, while the grey puppy closely followed behind him. Even if it was flitting left and right all around him, it had a very proud expression on its face showing that it was very satisfied.

  They even strol
led along for quite a while, and Ning Cheng, other than buying a Spirit Beast Bag, did not buy any other thing. As for a flight type magic weapon, he had simply selected a Low Grade Spiritual Artefact from the spoils of war of the cultivator army. As for the other things, there was basically no need to purchase.

  As for the purchase of the Spirit Beast Bag, it was entirely in order to hold the small grey puppy.

  Ning Cheng had planned to buy some food for the small grey puppy to eat, but he did not expect that this small grey puppy would not eat solid food, moreover it even did not eat meat. So he took out one of the Returning Qi Pill that he had refined as an experiment, which it immediately swallowed down in excitement.

  Did this puppy already know that he was a Tier 1 Ordinary Pill Master? So it wanted to follow him? In any case, Ning Cheng had already come to know that this puppy only knew to eat pills, as such it was definitely no ordinary puppy.

  Ning Cheng had originally come out to try out his Twin Heavenly Cloud Wings, but seeing the alertness around the Pu Bu Island, he immediately dismissed this idea.

  The Twin Heavenly Cloud Wings were completely different and unlike from the other things of similar nature, once it was discovered by a person, then they could immediately make a move to take them away. Moreover, Ning Cheng also did not dare to go deep into the Yi Xing Ocean to try them out, he knew that the depths of the Yi Xing Ocean were a place that contained high ranked monstrous beasts everywhere. Once he met a high ranked monstrous beast, then not to mention testing the Twin Heavenly Cloud Wings, he would just end up becoming a meal for that high ranked monstrous beast.

  ……

  Coming back to his Junior Commander’s Mansion, Ning Cheng did not go look for Nan Yuefang and Yang Honghuo. He immediately went into closed door cultivation in order to study Alchemy. Moreover, for Ning Cheng to go into seclusion to study Alchemy, it was more of a last-ditch action.
