Dragon-Marked War God - Chapter 1460

Chapter 1460

The courtyard of the Registration Centre wasn’t huge . It was only half the size of the genius’ courtyard, however it looked extremely delicate and had a pretty good environment . The gates of the courtyard was widely open . According to what Dong Fei said, there was only one elder in the whole building for no extra labours were needed .

Each year, the Genius Prefecture would recruit outstanding disciples from various sects for two days . Those two days would be the busiest in the Registration Centre . Apart from that, the Registration Centre was mostly idle and had basically nothing going on . So it was a lackadaisical position to be in charge of this place .

Under the lead of Dong Fei, Jiang Chen and Big Yellow arrived at the gates of the courtyard, and walked into it without hesitation . This cozy courtyard were filled with the twitters of birds and the fragrance of flowers . Its scenery and landscape was extremely elegant . The moment they entered the courtyard, they instantly saw a fifty plus years old elder lounging on a large rattan chair, chewing something in his mouth, and fanning the golden fan in his hand rhythmically .

“This old man sure has a leisurely life . No doubt, this is the most leisurely position in the Genius Prefecture . ” Big Yellow said with envy .

“Half-step Immortal Emperor cultivation base . But his Qi isn’t stable . He must have used some kind of medicines to force his advancement . Such a half-step Immortal Emperor is vulnerable to any blow, however this is also understandable . After all, when one has become old, one’s potentials would have been already expended . It’s already considered not bad that he had reached such a realm, however he also wouldn’t have a chance to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm anymore for the rest of his life,” Jiang Chen said in a low tone .  

With his sharp eyesight, he was able to see through the depths of the old man at one glance .  

Although the old man was only at the half-step Immortal Emperor realm, he was only a little stronger than a late Immortal King expert . Additionally, his foundation was very shaky because his advancement was forced by medicines and pills .

When an old man like him could reach such an extent, he should already be grateful enough; it was also a good fortune for him to be able to get an idle position in Genius Prefecture .

“Brother Jiang, even so, this Elder Yang isn’t a person to be trifled with, because his surname is Yang . He’s one of the distant relatives of the royal family of Great Qian Empire . Also, it’s impossible for an ordinary person to get an idle job in the Genius Prefecture . ” Dong Fei explained .

“I see . ”

Jiang Chen and Big Yellow seemed enlightened, they now understood why this Elder Yang could enjoy so pleasantly in Genius Prefecture despite his cultivation base . It turned out that he was related to the Yang Family . That meant that the rules didn’t apply to him because the entire Genius Prefecture belonged to the Yang Family .

“He’s called Yang Ling, a follower of the Crown Prince . He was merely a peak-late Immortal King before this . But with the help of the Crown Prince, he had advanced to the half-step Immortal Emperor realm . ” Dong Fei spoke .

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but knit his brows . He didn’t have any good feelings for the people of the Crown Prince . He wouldn’t put this Yang Ling in his eyes, however . Anyway, he had just come here to register . Once the registration was done, he had basically nothing else to do with the old man .

Despite noticing that someone was approaching, Yang Ling’s eyes were still shut . He then said lazily: “Who’s twittering over there, and affecting the rest of this elder?”

Dong Fei hastily took a step forward and saluted Yang Ling . “Elder Yang, there’s a new disciple coming here for the registration . ”

Jiang Chen didn’t care about Yang Ling, but Dong Fei wouldn’t dare show any neglect . Putting aside the Crown Prince and Yang Family, his low cultivation base was a clear sign that he couldn’t afford to offend Yang Ling . No matter what kind of ways Yang Ling had used to advanced, Yang Ling was still a true half-step Immortal Emperor, whereas Dong Fei was only an intermediate Immortal King . Dong Fei stood no chance at all in a fight against Yang Ling .

Knowing that some new disciple had come, Yang Ling opened his eyes reluctantly . His eyes fell on Jiang Chen, but when he noticed that Jiang Chen was merely a half-step Immortal King expert, he frowned immediately .

“What’s going on here? A half-step Immortal King coming here for registration? Is it a mistake?” Yang Ling said .

“Elder Yang, there’s no mistake . He’s Jiang Chen . The Jiang Chen of King Fan Prefecture . He has already brought his identity jade token . ” Dong Fei said .

“Jiang Chen . ” Upon hearing Jiang Chen’s name, Yang Ling’s eyes flickered coldly . Dong Fei perhaps couldn’t sense it, but Jiang Chen could sense it clearly .

“This is my identity jade token . Please help assign me to my accommodation, elder . ”

Jiang Chen took out his identity jade token and handed it to Yang Ling . Yang Ling continued to lounge at the chair, fanning his holding fan, his mouth showed a trace of a smile, but didn’t seem to bother about the token in Jiang Chen’s hands .

Upon seeing this scene, Jiang Chen was extremely irritated . Despite his politeness towards the old man, the old man still decided to turn a blind eye to it . However, Jiang Chen also heard that Yang Ling was a man of the Crown Prince, so he had already anticipated that some trouble would occur even in a small place like this .

“This new disciple isn’t polite at all . Don’t you see that this elder is resting? Wait till this elder is done resting . Only then will this elder handle your things . ” Yang Ling said plainly, obviously making things hard for Jiang Chen .

“It’s true that elder is busy resting, but this disciple is busy with my cultivation . I hope that elder can settle this urgent procedure as soon as possible . ”

Jiang Chen held back his urge to slap the old man and spoke as kindly as he could .

“Why aren’t you sensible at all? Have you already learned how to contradict your elders even before coming here? Alright, this elder will settle it for you right now . Straight up over there until the end is a valley . There’s a northern courtyard in the valley . The environment over there is very quiet . That will be your place of cultivation . Off you go . ” Yang Ling said impatiently .

Jiang Chen looked at where Yang Ling pointed and saw a valley at the end after a row of endless courtyards . The valley seemed to have been separated from the region of courtyards .

Dong Fei’s eyes widened and spoke . “Elder, that’s an obsolete place . There’s no connection of spiritual vein from below . It’s not a place of cultivation at all . ”

*Pa!*

Before Dong Fei could finish speaking, Yang Ling slapped the armrest of the rattan chair .

“Dong Fei, who do you think you are? How dare you give your remarks in front of me? Are you seeking death?” Yang Ling seemed extremely infuriated .

“Elder Yang, I think you’d better check the Qi of the identity jade token and search for my cultivation place which has already been arranged . ” Jiang Chen continued to speak . His patience was nearing its limit .

“Check it for what? You will go to wherever I arrange you to go . Get lost . ” Yang Ling waved his fan, showing a face that needed beatings .

“Brother Jiang, that isn’t a place you can go . That’s the forbidden place of Genius Prefecture . All these years, those who went there died . No one knows what’s hiding in the valley . Although it hasn’t been clearly marked as a forbidden place, no one had ever dared to go there anymore . ” Dong Fei spoke .

After listening to this, Big Yellow couldn’t stand it anymore . He snapped .

“You mother*cker old bastard! What’s your f*cking arrogance all about? Are you deliberately looking for trouble?” Big Yellow cursed unscrupulously .
