The Heavenly Dragon's Beginning in the Journey Through the Heavens

Chapter 133 An unexpected encounter with Zhou Yixian's two con artists

Ling Feng used the Sky-Stepping Technique to speed towards Heyang City as if walking in the air.

The Sky-Stepping Technique, a magical method of traversing the sky, not only allows Ling Feng to move freely in the air as if walking on flat ground, but its speed is also astonishing, allowing him to be far away from his original location in the blink of an eye.

When Ling Feng arrived at Heyang City, he did not choose to enter the city directly from the air in a grand manner. Instead, he slowly descended as he approached the city gate and walked into the city.

The reason for doing so was that Ling Feng vaguely sensed a restrictive force in the sky above Heyang City. To avoid unnecessary trouble, he decided to enter the city through the city gate.

Upon entering the city, Ling Feng couldn't help but feel deeply impressed. This Heyang City truly lived up to its reputation as one of the largest cities on the Divine Continent, with merchants of all sizes readily available.

Among the coming and going crowds, one can often see the figures of cultivators.

Just as Ling Feng entered through the city gate, he noticed several cultivators dressed in Qingyun Sect attire and bearing the Qingyun Sect emblem passing by.

Heyang City is located at the foot of Qingyun Mountain, so it's not surprising that there are Qingyun Sect cultivators here.

After entering the city, Ling Feng wandered around aimlessly, stopping and starting along the way.

However, after only a short while, Ling Feng lost interest in the city.

It turns out that the cities in this cultivation world are not much different from those in the martial arts world, except that there are more shops selling rare and exotic treasures.

Having lost interest, Ling Feng decided to find a place to stay first, and then consider his next plan.

Now that he is able to cultivate, he must find ways to improve his strength as quickly as possible.

You should know that the three women in the world of Tianlong are still waiting for his return.

Just as Ling Feng was pondering his future plans, an old man's voice suddenly came from behind him:

"Young hero, please wait! I have observed that you have a full forehead and a rosy complexion, which should be an auspicious sign. However, there is a faint black aura surrounding you, which is an ominous sign. This is extremely strange."

Ling Feng turned around and saw an old man and a young man standing behind him.

The old man had an air of otherworldly wisdom, and in his left hand he held a piece of canvas with the four large characters "The Immortal Points the Way" written on it.

The little girl had two long braids and held a string of candied hawthorns in her hand; she looked clever and mischievous.

Ling Feng recognized the two at a glance; they were Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan, the most mysterious figures in the world of "Zhu Xian".

In the original work, these two are shrouded in mystery. Zhou Yixian seems to know everything, and based on the original plot, he is likely the successor of the missing lineage of Qingyun Sect.

Xiao Huan, this seemingly clever and quirky girl, is also full of mystery.

Therefore, this grandfather-grandson duo can be said to be the most mysterious and unpredictable existence in "Zhu Xian".

Ling Feng turned around, feigning surprise as he looked at them, and asked:

"Oh, I wonder what you mean by that?"

Ling Feng knew that although Zhou Yixian was mysterious, he was also a greedy person. He wanted to see if Zhou Yixian was going to fool him.

This week, Zhou Xian was quite skilled at his job. When he saw Ling Feng turn around, his expression suddenly became serious.

However, what Zhou Yixian said next surprised Ling Feng greatly.

"Young friend, your appearance is truly unpredictable. Judging from your face, you seem to be someone from another world, but how could that be?"

Zhou Yixian said with a serious expression.

Ling Feng's expression instantly turned serious; he was secretly alarmed.

"This guy can actually tell who I am?"

Zhou Yixian didn't dwell on Ling Feng's origins and continued talking in a mystical manner:

"Young friend, your face is gloomy, your eyes are filled with murderous intent, and there is a dark line on your forehead. This is a very bad omen!"

Ling Feng's lips twitched slightly as he pondered to himself:

"This guy really knows how to make things up!"

But outwardly, he feigned surprise and said:

"Master, what do you mean by that? How is it an ominous sign?"

Zhou Yixian stroked his beard and slowly said:

"This is a secret of heaven and cannot be revealed."

After saying this, he adopted a mercenary demeanor, as if telling Ling Feng that it was his turn to show some appreciation.

Ling Feng, his curiosity piqued as well, understood and said:

"This is not the place to talk. Let's find a place to sit down and discuss this in detail."

These words struck a chord with Zhou Yixian, who looked at Ling Feng with an expression that said, "You're a sensible kid."

The three then found a nearby restaurant and prepared to eat and chat.

After the three of them sat down, the waiter quickly brought out the food and drinks.

After the waiter left, leaving only the three of them, Ling Feng wanted to test how much the old man actually knew.

Moreover, this old guy knew many secrets in the original story, and Ling Feng wanted to see if he could get anything out of him.

"It seemed like the Taoist priest had something he couldn't say just now. Is it convenient for you to say it now?"

Ling Feng asked tentatively.

Since the food and wine were served, the grandfather and grandson didn't stand on ceremony with Ling Feng at all, and just wolfed down their food as if they hadn't eaten in eight lifetimes.

Hearing Ling Feng's question, Zhou Yixian reluctantly put down the large pork knuckle in his hand, then picked up the wine glass on the table and drank the wine in one gulp, as if he wanted to wash away the grease in his mouth.

Then, he wiped his mouth and said in a serious tone:

"There's nothing I can't say. I noticed that your appearance doesn't seem to belong to this world, but I quickly dismissed that idea because the passage between our world and the outside world was destroyed more than a thousand years ago during the great war between good and evil. That's why I immediately abandoned the idea."

So that's how it is! Ling Feng sighed inwardly. This was a secret that wasn't mentioned in the original story.

Now that the conversation had begun, Ling Feng decided to press on while the iron was hot and continue asking questions:

"In that case, would you be so kind as to tell me whether my future will be auspicious or inauspicious?"

Upon hearing Ling Feng's request, Zhou Yixian answered without hesitation:

"I can't tell from your appearance that your face is so unpredictable and full of infinite possibilities for the future. Sometimes it shows signs of great misfortune, and other times it shows signs of great fortune. So I dare not draw any conclusions lightly."

Ling Feng was somewhat disappointed after hearing this, but he knew that such things couldn't be forced, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Moreover, I've already learned some secrets from him, so this meal wasn't a bad deal.

Next, Ling Feng watched the grandfather and granddaughter perform a mukbang. Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan devoured the food on the table in a flash, and in no time, the table full of food and drinks was reduced to empty plates and bowls.

Ling Feng couldn't help but sigh, "These two, grandfather and grandson, really have big appetites!"

After finishing his meal, Ling Feng paid the bill and left.

Fortunately, gold and silver are also used in this secular world, otherwise Ling Feng really wouldn't have had the money to pay the bill.

After Ling Feng left, Xiao Huan, who had been silent just moments before, looked at Zhou Yixian and asked:

"Grandpa, you were just lying to him, weren't you? I can't even see through this person's face, I don't believe you can."

In response to Xiao Huan's question, Zhou Yixian smiled mysteriously and said:

"Hehe, as the saying goes, it's unspeakable, unspeakable..."

Xiao Huan pouted, somewhat displeased.

"Hmph, you stinky grandpa, you're playing riddles again. It's always the same, so unpredictable!"

She grumbled as she propped her head up with her hand, a helpless expression on her face, but inwardly she was also thinking:

"Hmph, you old rascal, always playing tricks! But that Ling Feng does seem quite special. I wonder who he really is?"

As she pondered this, she couldn't help but glance back in the direction Ling Feng had gone, her heart filled with curiosity.

Afterwards, the grandfather and granddaughter left the restaurant. Zhou Yixian, walking along the road with Xiao Huan, suddenly stopped, looked up at the sky, and muttered to himself:

"Alas, all of this depends on his single thought. If things go wrong, it could be another catastrophe for China!"

After saying that, he sighed softly, a hint of worry in his eyes.

After hearing this, Xiao Huan couldn't help but ask in surprise:

"Grandpa, what do you mean by that? Does that person mean he will bring disaster to China?"

Zhou Yixian shook his head and slowly said:

"Not necessarily. If he can guide his power correctly, he might be able to save China; but if he goes astray, the consequences will be unimaginable. Therefore, his future is full of variables, and we can only wait and see."

Xiao Huan nodded as if she understood, but her curiosity and worry about Ling Feng grew stronger.
