Ultimate Master in Urban

Chapter 1968 - 1999: The Lotus of Qilan Fame

At this moment, the people surrounding Long Tao no longer had any trace of fear towards him. It was laughable—Long Tao had become a worthless person by now.Moreover, his subordinates were all exhausted and had no strength to fight again. What was there to fear from Long Tao in such a condition?

"Serves him right. I've always known that this arrogant, idle playboy would meet such an end sooner or later. He could be so arrogant only because he hadn't met someone as powerful as this senior. Now that he has, his outcome is self-explanatory."

"Exactly, it's truly a delight to see such scum meet his end. We should have a few drinks to celebrate this day."

"You're right. We must thank this senior for stepping in. Otherwise, that bastard would have continued his rampant behavior. But now it's settled—this guy is completely finished for life."

"..."

The murmuring of those around turned Long Tao's face pale. His expression was extremely unpleasant.

His heart pounded violently, and as a hysterical rage surged from within him, his face became twisted with fury.

"Trash! All of you are trash! You can't even protect me, you useless fools!"

Long Tao continued to curse aloud.

After his tirade, he lifted his head and glared coldly at Ye Feng, his eyes filled with deep-seated malice.

But Ye Feng paid no attention to this at all, as if he hadn't noticed, his expression remained calm without the slightest change.

This infuriated Long Tao even more.

He wanted to kill Ye Feng and his companions on the spot, but he knew it was impossible.

Considering the strength this person had shown, not even the Dragon Family might be able to deal with him.

This meant that today, he could only swallow his anger. Yet, thinking of having to do so filled him with immense resentment.

He swore to himself that if he ever got the chance in the future, he would make those before him experience the same pain he had endured, making them regret what they had done today for the rest of their lives.

Ye Feng and his companions, after glancing coldly around, turned expressionlessly and walked forward.

The woman with Xuan Saint-level cultivation, standing nearby, immediately hurried to catch up with Ye Feng, kneeling before him.

"This humble one, Rose, thanks the senior for saving my life," she said respectfully, head bowed.

"Stand up. I merely helped out in passing; there's no need for such formality," Ye Feng said plainly.

Having said this, he paused no longer and continued onward.

This left Rose looking disappointed—she had never experienced her beauty failing to make someone halt, not even for a moment.

She found it unbelievable, unable to comprehend why this was happening.

Could it be she wasn't pretty enough?

No, of course not. Though her cultivation wasn't high, she was quite confident in her looks.

This meant the senior's standards were simply too high, and he simply couldn't take interest in her.

The more she thought about it, the deeper Rose's disappointment grew.

Ye Feng, moving ahead, showed no concern for what Rose was thinking, proceeding without interruption.

Following behind, Green suddenly spoke up: "Senior, there's a major landmark near Azure Dragon City. Might you be interested in seeing it?"

"A landmark?" Ye Feng frowned.

"Yes, not only is it a symbol of Azure Dragon City, but it's also quite famous throughout Amulan. In a pool just outside Azure Dragon City grows numerous Qi Lan Flowers, which are extraordinarily beautiful and mesmerizing. Around this time, they should be about to bloom," Green continued.

"These flowers only bloom once every five hundred years, and their blooming lasts just five days. During this period, people from Azure Dragon City and other cities come to see them. Might you be interested in visiting?"

"Since that's the case, with nothing else on hand, we might as well take a look," Ye Feng replied after a brief consideration.

Green promptly fell silent, taking on the role of guide. With a flash, the three of them headed out of Azure Dragon City.

A whistling sound sliced through the air as Ye Feng and his companions arrived outside Azure Dragon City, stopping in front of a pool.

This pool was actually a large lake, spanning tens of thousands of feet wide when viewed from the edge.

The waters were clear, and various bizarrely shaped wild grasses grew within it.

On the eastern side of the lake, numerous green plants floated on the water. Just one glance, and Ye Feng recognized them as the Qi Lan Grass Green mentioned.

Perhaps because the Qi Lan Grass was about to bloom, many people had gathered around.

The cultivations here were at least at the Xuan Saint level, with some even at the late stage of Xuan God level.

Ye Feng's eyes, sharp as lightning, scanned the lake and began to admire the view within.

According to Ye Feng's assessment, the Qi Lan Grass in the lake contained incredibly potent spiritual power and vitality.

The strength of these powers exceeded Ye Feng's expectations.

He discovered that the vitality in the Qi Lan Grass far surpassed that of ordinary plants, reaching an almost peak state.

Though slightly shocked, Ye Feng put aside any other thoughts as time gradually passed, and more and more people gathered around the lake.

Soon, the crowd became dense.

Most present were from nearby cities, though there were undoubtedly some locals among them.

"It's hard to believe five hundred years have passed. The sight of the Qi Lan Flowers blooming last time is unforgettable even to this day."

"Indeed. Every time the Qi Lan Flowers bloom, we cultivate here for a while, and upon returning, our cultivation advances by a certain level. These flowers are truly remarkable."

"If there were a way to transplant them, I'd love to take all the Qi Lan Flowers with me to avoid the hassle of coming here every five hundred years."

As various comments spread among the crowd, a flash of interest flickered in Ye Feng's eyes.
