The Gate Of Good Fortune c1-905

  Yin Yihui did not think much about it. He was impatient to talk to Ning Cheng, “Brother Ning, the breathing exercises of the Cultivation Method you taught me were really wonderful. It took me only two days to get used to it, not only were my internal injuries completely healed but at the same time even my strength had risen substantially.”

  “Good, as you continue to cultivate, in the future, those bugs won’t pose much of a threat to you.” After Ning Cheng finished, he then thought of something. He suddenly took out a long knife from inside his shirt and handed it to Yin Yihui and spoke, “This is for you.”

  “Aah….” Yin Yihui stared at Ning Cheng’s clothes. How can such a long knife be placed unnoticed inside of Ning Cheng’s clothes?

  Ning Cheng interrupted Yin Yihui’s daze and spoke, “What do you think of this knife? How does it compare to your old weapon?”

  Yin Yihui then finally focussed his attention on the knife in his hand, causing him to cry out in shock, “What level of weapon is this?”

  “Just circulate your True Qi into it and chop at that trash can.” Ning Cheng pointed to the nearby metal trash can and spoke, he really was not able to find a worse Magical Weapon on him. This high-grade knife type Magical Artefact was actually the worst one inside his ring.

  “This… If the knife gets broken….” Yin Yihui could feel a shiver run through him as he looked at the knife. He knew that this knife was not ordinary; as such, he was reluctant to make that chop.

  Ning Cheng spoke with a smile, “If a chop would cause the knife to break, then this knife would not be able to help you in killing those insects.”

  Yin Yihui immediately became startled, as he quickly lifted the knife and chopped down. The metal trash can was just like tofu and was directly split into two halves without offering any kind of resistance.

  “This knife….” Yin Yihui shot a horrified look at the knife in his hand. Even if he used those battle-tested blades that he was accustomed to, they still could not be compared to the sharpness of this knife.

  “You can use this knife to kill a few more of those insects; however, I will have to leave to find my sister. I’ll look for you at the border in the future. I will be leaving now. Hope we get to enjoy the chance of meeting in the future. Right, you will have to build a scabbard for the knife by yourself, to not be misunderstood.” Ning Cheng patted Yin Yihui’s shoulder before quickly descending the stairs.

  What Ning Cheng was the most worried about was his younger sister Ning Ruolan, if not for Ruolan; he would have immediately headed out to the border with Yin Yihui to look at the situation. With the might of the Rank 5 Battle Disc, he might not even have to step onto the field, as those Demon Insects might just end up fleeing at the sight of him.

  “Brother Ning, Elder Brother Ning Xiaocheng…..” By the time Yin Yihui reacted, Ning Cheng had already gone far away. By the time he hurried down the stairs, he was not even able to catch a glimpse of Ning Xiaocheng’s shadow.

  “What an odd person. Never thought that I, Yin Yihui, would have the fortune to meet such a capable person, I……” Yin Yihui muttered to himself as he stood at the hotel’s entrance with clenched fists. At this moment, both his morale and fighting spirit were rekindled. With the Qi Circulation Tactics imparted to him by Ning Cheng, combined with such a horrifying knife, wouldn’t his power and prestige grow to an even more impressive level at the border?

  Ning Xiaocheng looked younger than he did, but he still chose to address him as an ‘Elder Brother’. This Ning Xiaocheng not only saved his life but also taught him martial arts out of kindness, so treating him as his Elder Brother was wholly deserved.

  “Sir, please put away your knife.” A waiter arrived at the entrance and reminded Yin Yihui with a smile.

  “Oh, sorry.” Yin Yihui directly took off his coat and carefully wrapped the long knife in it.

  After securely wrapping the long knife, Yin Yihui turned around to go back upstairs to tidy up his things. After visiting his wife and kid, he would then immediately leave for the border. Although he was not able to pass on which division was he served to Elder Brother Ning Xiaocheng, with Ning Xiaocheng’s ability, he definitely would be able to look him up on his own.

  He was also hoping that Elder Brother Ning Xiaocheng would be able to find his younger sister and would then come to the border to fight alongside them.

  “This gentleman, please wait……” A crisp and melodious voice stopped Yin Yihui.

  Yin Yihui turned back and saw a pretty-looking woman; she had a slender waist with a plump backdrop. Moreover, she also had a soft smile on her face and a gentle look in her eyes causing any person who looked at her to develop a favourable impression towards her. The only drawback, if any, was that her lips were slightly thinner. However, this shortcoming did not affect the overall beauty of this woman.

  “Did you call me?” Yin Yihui was not an arrogant person, combined with the opposite party being a beautiful woman, he also stopped. With his strength rising to a new level, and his injuries healed in its entirety, he was able to realise that Ning Xiaocheng was probably much more skilled than he was. Nevertheless, at this moment, he was in an incredibly joyful mood.

  “Yes, I am called Zeng Jiyun and work for the Exceptionally Strong Materials LLC; this is my business card……” Zeng Jiyun took out a business card from her purse and passed it onto Yin Yihui.

  Yin Yihui also quickly received the business card and spoke, “I am called Yin Yihui.”

  “Elder Brother Yin looks like a hero, you should have just returned from the border, right?” Zeng Jiyun spoke with a smile.

  Yin Yihui smile and replied, “Yes, I did just come back from the border.”

  “I really admire soldiers like Elder Brother Yin, the soldiers defending the frontier…..” Zeng Jiyun spoke with even more admiration in her voice. The way her words came out along with her tone made no one who heard her doubt her sincerity.

  Yin Yihui smiled but did not interrupt her. He was not a soldier, but a Five-Star Battle Officer.

  At the border, based on one’s strength along with how many insects they killed, all the martial artists were ranked according to a new standard and divided into the classes of Soldier, Battle Officer, Battle General, and Battle Commander. Each category was then subdivided into five different star ranks, and he was currently a Five-star Battle Officer. However, Yin Yihui also knew that there were several more people more powerful than he was; such experts were as numerous as the hairs on an ox. It was only because of his fierce and death-defying nature combined with his desperate style of fighting that caused him to gain a footing for himself at the border.

  It was also because of this kind of death-defying fighting style, which caused his body to bear many scars. If at this time, he had not met Elder Brother Ning Xiaocheng, he would have undoubtedly died in a few weeks.

  “Did I hear you calling out ‘Ning Xiaocheng’ or something similar to it? Do you know him?” Zeng Jiyun on seeing that the opposite party did not refute her when she addressed him as a soldier directly asked what she wanted to ask.

  “That’s right. I just met with Elder Brother Ning Xiaocheng. Do you know him?” Hearing Zeng Jiyun speak about Ning Xiaocheng, Yin Yihui immediately became spirited.

  Zeng Jiyun nodded, “We haven’t seen each other for years, but he is my classmate’s boyfriend….”

  Although Zeng Jiyun was talking about Ning Cheng’s matter, however in her heart, Zeng Jiyun was actually trying to think of ways to become more familiar to Yin Yihui. The sources of her Exceptionally Strong Materials LLC were growing worse day by day, which caused her to think of ways to strike up a deal with the soldiers at the border to procure some of those materials directly from those insects.

  That’s not right; Ning Xiaocheng had an abject appearance. A border soldier, even if it were a One-Star Soldier, they would not address Ning Xiaocheng as Elder Brother. Moreover, the ones who could afford to stay at the Cloudy Ocean Sky Hotel, they would at least be above On
e-Star Soldiers in rank.

  As Zeng Jiyun thought until here, she immediately felt moved in her heart. The first impressions were the most lasting ones, unexpectedly causing her to ignore Ning Xiaocheng.

  “Jiyun….” Zeng Jiyun’s train of thought was once again interrupted by a young man.

  Looking at the young man calling her, Zeng Jiyun’s smooth face showed a frown. This man was like a dog-skin plaster, as he frequently was found around her.

  “Although boss asked you to leave in anger, he did not know what had happened. He only spoke in anger.” This young man whispered into Zeng Jiyun’s ears.

  Zeng Jiyun on hearing that the boss seemed to be angry, how could she spare the time to care about creating a connection with Yin Yihui at this moment? She apologised to Yin Yihui in a hurry before quickly rushing inside the hotel.

  After Zeng Jiyun left, the young man stared coldly at Yin Yihui and spoke, “You cannot just speak to anyone no matter who it may be. You better watch yourself.”

  Yin Yihui was too lazy to reply. He just raised his palm and slapped this youth causing him to fly back a few meters before falling to the ground. The man couldn’t help but open his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood and a few broken teeth. At this moment, this young man felt as if thunderbolts were going off in his ears.

  “You dare to hit me?” The young man reached out to grab Yin Yihui, as he spoke in a tone filled with anger, refusing to believe what had happened. This one palm slap had most likely left him crippled in one ear.

  Yin Yihui straightened out his clothes before sauntering to the front of this young man, then took out a card before placing it before the eyes of the young man and spoke, “You are welcome to come find trouble with me if you like. However, let me give you a piece of advice, not anyone can just casually threaten others.”

  Finished saying that, Yin Yihui then lifted his feet and wiped off the young man’s blood from the soles of his shoes before leaving behind a few more words, “I hope you would not disappoint me by turtling up now.”

  “Five-Star Battle Officer? Five-Star Battle Officer…..” At this time, how could the young man lying on the ground even dare to say anything about revenge? His mind kept repeating those four words while he sat there trembling in fear.

  Once Ning Cheng reached a secluded place, he brought out a simple Airship Type Magical Artefact. Now that he was able to recover his cultivation to the True Condensation Realm, he did not seek to use cars. Moreover, who knows if the hailing a vehicle would need an ID or not at this moment, especially since he really did not have an ID card on him currently. Besides, even a regular high-grade airship type Magical Artefact was a lot faster than a plane.

  Half an hour later, Ning Cheng appeared at the entrance of the Jiangzhou University. He came here to not look for Tian Muwan again, as he already knew that Tian Muwan was no longer in Jiangzhou. He came here intending to look for the Pearl Hair Clip that was thrown into the sewers by Tian Muwan.

  Although he had arrived at the Ocean City, the first place that he chose to visit was actually the Jiangzhou University. He only came over at this location to reminisce. Ning Cheng was a nostalgic person and someone who always kept old friendships in mind, as such this Pearl Hair Clip was something that he had reserved symbolically for his most loved ones. He had given one of these to his younger sister Ruolan, as for the other one, he believed that he would definitely be able to find it using his own Spiritual Consciousness.

  Unfortunately, despite Ning Cheng’s Spiritual Consciousness sweeping the sewer over and over again to locate that piece, he was not even able to see half a shadow of the Pearl Hair Clip. Ning Cheng guessed that the Pearl Hair Clip should have already been washed away, as such he could only leave the place in dejection.

  ……

  Half an hour later, Ning Cheng then arrived at the Jiangzhou Institute of Foreign Languages. He stood in front of the Girls Dormitory of the Jiangzhou Institute of Foreign Languages, but despite the logic of his heart, he still swept his Spiritual Consciousness into the girls’ dormitory. Unfortunately, although there were several girls inside Ruolan’s dormitory, he did not know any of them.

  “What a lovely puppy.” A crisp female voice arrived with a somewhat exaggerated tone. Apparently, the owner of those words saw the loitering Grey Toottoot.

  “Xiaochan, don’t you think that this dog is looking at you in contempt?” Another female student spoke out as if she had discovered a new mainland, following it with a laugh.

  “Oh, it really is showing contempt.” The nearby male student had also discovered that Grey Toottoot was looking at them with a despising gaze.

  Ning Cheng waved his hand and spoke, “Grey Toottoot, come here.”

  With Grey Toottoot’s current strength and nature, seeing only ordinary students all around, it would really be strange if it did not show its despise.

  Grey Toottoot walked behind Ning Cheng while wagging its tail.

  “Oh, are you Ning Xiaocheng?” One of the girls called out in a pleasantly surprised voice.

  Ning Cheng on hearing that someone had recognised him, immediately felt happy in his heart. Was it an acquaintance that had seen him? Turning around, he saw that the girl who called out to him seemed to be in her twenties, with fair skin and a delicate look. However, Ning Cheng was sure that he had never seen this girl.

  “You are?” Ning Cheng asked in doubt.

  “My name is Li Shiyun. I used to stay in the same dormitory as your sister Ning Ruolan….” The fair-skinned girl had not finished talking when Ning Cheng had already taken a few steps forward in surprise. Because of Ning Cheng’s actions, it caused Li Shiyun to subconsciously take a step back.

  Ning Cheng did not notice this at all, he grabbed Li Shiyun’s hand and spoke, “Do you really know my sister? Do you know where Ruolan is?”

  “You don’t need to be this anxious, this matter cannot be explained in just one or two words. Let’s find a place to sit first. I’ll slowly spell it out for you.” Li Shiyun spoke in a somewhat low tone.

  Although she was looking at him after a few years, it seems like Ning Xiaocheng was not faring well. In the past when she shared the dormitory with Ning Ruolan, she had once seen Ruolan meeting Ning Xiaocheng downstairs through a dorm window. At that time, Ning Xiaocheng still appeared to be quite young and inexperienced. But seeing Ning Cheng today, his body seemed to be giving off a trace of vicissitudes. Sensing this feeling caused Li Shiyun to feel somewhat surprised. However, in any event, Ning Cheng no longer had that young and inexperienced look to him.

  Li Shiyun still vividly remembered that one time, when she had peeked at Ning Xiaocheng from her dorm window. Ning Ruolan had previously declared that she would betroth Shiyun to her brother. Although it was only a joke, it caused Li Shiyun to carefully observe Ning Xiaocheng. However, Ning Ruolan did not speak any more about it later. It was not until graduation that Ning Ruolan came back crying and said that her elder brother had gone missing.

  At that time, Li Shiyun finally got to know that Ning Xiaocheng had a girlfriend. However, his girlfriend had abandoned him. This resulted in the disappearance of Ning Xiaocheng.

  “Good, good, let’s quickly find a quiet place, do you know any place around?” Ning Cheng quickly spoke out. At this moment, he just did not care about anything else.

  Li Shiyun also quickly recovered and spoke out, “That’s would be good.”

  Saying that, she then turned to the man and woman at her side and spoke, “Xiaochan, Dong Zhen, I will not be accompanying you inside and be a third wheel to the two of you, if it gets late then just remember to call me.”

  ……

  Following Li Shiyun, the two of them then arrived at an off-campus
coffee shop, while Ning Cheng also slowly calmed down from his initial anxiousness and excitement. Trying to calm down the tone of his voice as far as possible, he then spoke up, “Sorry, I got a little excited a moment ago. Didn’t you graduate a few years ago? Why are you still staying at this place?”

  Although Ning Cheng desperately wanted to know the whereabouts of Ruolan, he also knew that it would be rude to directly ask Li Shiyun about it, especially since he had never met her before.

  “After I left the Institute, I became a lecturer here. But that’s irrelevant, let me talk to you about Ruolan.” Li Shiyun knew that Ning Cheng was really anxious and spoke straight to the point.

  Seeing Ning Cheng showing a nervous look, Li Shiyun secretly sighed to herself, as she adjusted her emotions and spoke, “Three years ago, when we were about to graduate, Ruolan learned about your disappearance. She then went to the Jiangzhou University to look for your girlfriend in desperation. However, it looked like the powers behind her were not something Ruolan was able to contend with. Fortunately, your girlfriend was also rational, and managed to stop her family from laying their hands on Ruolan.”

  Although Ning Cheng’s was worried in his heart, he finally understood why Tian Muwan didn’t want to give an answer about his sister. It looks like it was initially because of this matter. However, it was also fortunate that she held back her Tian Family on laying their hands on Ruolan, otherwise, no matter who made a move against Ruolan, he would directly annihilate them.

  Seeing Ning Cheng not show any expressions on his face when his girlfriend was mentioned, Li Shiyun realised that Ning Cheng now no longer had any connection to his former girlfriend.

  “After Ruolan came back, she cried for two straight days in the dormitory. If not for Dai Xin to take care of her and comfort her, then Ruolan might not have lasted throughout her crying.” Li Shiyun spoke as she recalled the initially crying appearance of Ning Ruolan. Even when she talked about it currently, she couldn’t help but feel sad, her eyes were also tinged with red.
