Chapter 372: Chapter 193: Beset with Crises

The Luo Family had previously been just a family of gentry in the Outer City District, and its Patriarch, Luo Tiezhu, was merely a Perfect Martial Artist of the Skin Grinding Realm.

Relying on his exquisite blacksmithing skills, Luo Tiezhu had amassed a considerable fortune.

But in this world, Martial Arts Power was what truly mattered.

Even though the Luo Family was somewhat wealthy, it was difficult for them to grow and become a major family in the Outer City District.

It was even more impossible for them to enter the Inner City District and join the ranks of its families.

The Luo Family’s success today was all because of the emergence of Luo Mingyu, a genius in the Martial Dao.

From a young age, he joined a Martial Arts Hall in the Outer City District to begin cultivating the Martial Dao. He gradually began to distinguish himself, cultivating step-by-step until he reached the Bone Forging Realm.

Now, at nearly forty, he was already a Perfect Martial Artist of the Bone Forger Realm.

Among his peers, he was in no way inferior to the disciples of the Four Great Clans of the Inner City.

In the future, he even had a chance to advance further and break through to the Bone Marrow Cleansing Realm.

At that point, he would be considered a true powerhouse even in the Inner City District, where experts gathered like clouds.

The Luo Family would be able to take another great leap forward.

Compared to great clans like the Four Great Clans of the Inner City, a family of gentry was practically a Humble Family.

Luo Mingyu’s journey to achieve so much had been truly arduous.

After all, while talent was certainly important in Martial Arts Cultivation, various cultivation resources were also indispensable.

For a gentry family like the Luos, supporting Luo Mingyu’s cultivation to Skin Grinding Realm Perfection was naturally simple.

But cultivation in the subsequent Muscle Strengthening and Bone Forging Realms required Low Grade Muscle Strengthening Pills and Low Grade Bone Tempering Pills.

These were far beyond what a gentry family could provide.

The reason Luo Mingyu had come this far was that he had met a benefactor: Mr. Zheng of the Zheng Martial Arts Hall.

After Luo Yunzhi married Mr. Zheng, Luo Mingyu instantly became Mr. Zheng’s brother-in-law.

Relying on this connection, he slowly began to thrive, obtaining enough Low Grade Muscle Strengthening Pills and Low Grade Bone Tempering Pills.

He even started managing Luo’s Shop, a rather famous and large establishment.

After so many years of struggle, what Luo Mingyu felt most deeply was undoubtedly the importance of Martial Arts Resources.

And obtaining Martial Arts Resources often required life-changing opportunities. Only by seizing such chances could one hope to soar to success overnight.

Otherwise, it was all just wishful thinking!

In Luo Mingyu’s eyes, the importance of Martial Arts Resources even surpassed that of Martial Arts Talent.

It was because of this preconception that when Steward Qian Bin mentioned cultivating Chen Cheng at Luo’s Shop in Ruyi District, Luo Mingyu had paid it no mind.

He had taken it for granted that a young man like Chen Cheng, even with some Martial Arts Talent, would find it difficult to amount to anything.

But life is unpredictable. Not only did Chen Cheng amount to something, but he also became a dazzling existence among the younger generation of Linji City, shining like the sun, moon, and stars.

Sha Wuyi, the Gang Leader of the Giant Shark Gang, also frequently went out with Mr. Zheng to slay demons.

Luo Mingyu naturally knew a bit about him. The Gang Leader of the Giant Shark Gang had incredibly high standards; he even looked down on many of the disciples from the Four Great Clans of the Inner City.

For this very reason, Sha Wuyi’s precious daughter, Sha Yu, was still unmarried at the age of twenty.

Whenever Sha Wuyi or Sha Yu spoke of Chen Cheng, their faces were filled with unconcealed admiration.

Luo Mingyu didn’t need a brain to figure out that both the Giant Shark Gang’s Leader and his precious daughter were likely scheming to win Chen Cheng over!

Luo Mingyu couldn’t help but recall that his father, Luo Tiezhu, had also mentioned multiple times that he wanted to introduce Chen Cheng to Luo Mingyu’s own treasured daughter, Luo Chengfeng.

Luo Yunzhi had the same idea.

’Perhaps I should take this matter more seriously. When I have time, I’ll invite Chen Cheng over and have Chengfeng meet him at the same time.

But Chen Cheng is already married. If Chengfeng marries him, she can only be a concubine.

For my treasured daughter, the apple of my eye, to marry someone as a concubine... it seems too great of an injustice...’

...

"They’re here!"

Just then, someone in the crowd shouted.

A group of people was seen striding out from the South City Gate.

Leading the group were three young people dressed in purple: one man and two women.

The man was tall and powerfully built, with handsome features. A Long Saber hung at his waist, and he walked with the gait of a dragon and the stride of a tiger.

The two women were both tall and slender, with long legs that further accentuated their graceful figures.

They had skin like ice and bones of jade, with a devastating beauty that could make fish sink and birds fall, capable of toppling cities and nations.

Needless to say, they were the "Peerless Twin Pearls of Linji City," the sisters Shen Qingshuang and Shen Qingyao.

The appearance of the trio immediately captured everyone’s attention.

The gazes of the young talents in the crowd, in particular, were burning with passion as they looked at Shen Qingyao and Shen Qingshuang.

Many of them were filled with genuine admiration and adoration, but there were also plenty of lechers and lust-crazed fools!

"Tsk, tsk... so these are the Peerless Twin Pearls of Linji City. Truly heavenly beauties."

"That face, fair as jade and so delicate it looks like it would break from a touch... and that soft, slender waist, it’s to die for! If I could just hold them for one night, I’d die a happy man!"

"Are you fucking dreaming? Those women are like fairies. Do you think you can just covet them?"

"A toad lusting after a swan’s flesh. Talk about wishful thinking."

"Hmph, and you’re telling me you don’t want to?"

"Watch your mouth! Be careful the Shen Family doesn’t hear you and cut out your tongue!"

"Exactly! The Shen Family’s fairies are Bone Forger Realm Martial Artists. They could cut you down with a single sword strike!"

...

However, everyone soon noticed a startling sight. The peerless twin beauties, who were placed on a pedestal and worshipped by countless people as fairy-like beings, were actually positioned to the left and right of a tall, handsome young man with a Long Saber, subtly making him their center. He, for his part, looked utterly calm and composed.

At this, many of them instantly grew furious. Their eyes widened, and it looked as if flames of rage were about to erupt from them!

If looks could kill, their glares would have already sliced that bastard into a thousand pieces!
