The Gate Of Good Fortune c1-905

  Thinking back to a few days ago, when she had just met Ning Cheng, Ning Cheng still looked quite happy. It was only because she had invited him to accompany her to lunch with someone else that Ning Cheng’s joyful look had disappeared without a trace.

  However, after she realised that Yin Yihui, who had addressed Ning Cheng as ‘Eldest Brother,’ was actually a Five-Star Battle Officer, she had immediately rushed out to look for Ning Cheng. It was not until today’s Insect Materials Exchange Meet that she was able to learn, by chance, that the owner of this booth was Ning Cheng’s younger sister.

  “Ning Ruolan, where is Ning Xiaocheng? I want to see him.” This time a cold voice sounded out.

  “Oh, Muwan, you also came here. I was just about to come look for you.” Zeng Jiyun looked even more delighted.

  However, Tian Muwan’s complexion was somewhat pale, she only shot a cold glance at Zeng Jiyun before speaking, “I can’t afford to be your backstabbed friend. If what you said at back then were even the tiniest bit true, then you would not be here. You would have hit a bountiful harvest a few days ago.”

  Hearing Tian Muwan’s blunt words, even if Zeng Jiyun played the fool, she could not help but hang her head down in shame.

  She understood Tian Muwan’s meaning, that is, after Ning Cheng had appeared once again, it was she, Tian Muwan, who had told her the news of Ning Cheng’s emergence. If she, Zeng Jiyun, loved Ning Cheng truly, then she would have never chosen to part with Ning Cheng at that time. At that time when Jiyun had met Ning Cheng, Jiyun did not hesitate to leave Ning Cheng. In other words, her words openly ridiculed Zeng Jiyun, explicitly stating that she did not love Ning Cheng; instead, she was the type who was selfish and liked to take advantage of others.

  Ning Ruolan quietly stared at Tian Muwan before replying, “Our poor family cannot afford to climb up to your wealthy family. My big brother wants to rest, I hope that Elder Sister Tian could spare us and not punish us too severely, just let us two siblings breathe.”

  Tian Muwan did not speak, she did not refute even half a word of what was said; instead, she slowly turned around and walked out of the crowd before she soon disappeared.

  ……

  After Ning Cheng returned to the hotel, he wanted to just restore his cultivation and get away from this place. In this place, other than his sister Ruolan, he really did not have any memories that he could consider as memorable.

  Entering the Miniature World Ring, Ning Cheng arranged several consecutive and intertwining Spiritual Gathering Arrays and once again started absorbing Spiritual Qi.

  Essence Building 1st Level, 2nd Level…

  A week later, Ning Cheng managed to restore his cultivation to the 9th Level of the Essence Building Realm. Although he knew that Ning Ruolan and Dai Xin would not encounter any issues, Ning Cheng still chose to come out to look around by his own initiative.

  “Big brother, has your cultivation improved?” Once Ning Cheng came out, Ning Ruolan’s surprised voice arrived.

  Although she knew that her big brother was in the room, Ning Ruolan was not accustomed to it at all. Only when she saw her big brother in person did she finally feel at ease.

  “En” Ning Cheng had been in closed-door cultivation for a few days, causing his strength to rise up to the 9th Level of the Essence Building Realm, letting him feel a bit better.

  “Elder Brother Xiaocheng, everything was sold out. Except for the top quality Essence Weapon. I did not choose to sell it; everything else was bought up by others.” Dai Xin knew that she would soon start to cultivate; as such, keeping an Essence Weapon behind might end up beneficial for her. Moreover, it was a longsword, which she liked very much.

  Ning Cheng wanted to leave behind a ring for Dai Xin, so he did not put much thought into Dai Xin’s words. After all, all the things of the company would ultimately go to Dai Xin.

  “Sister Dai Xin, you can keep this ring. However, you would not be able to open it currently. When you reach the Essence Building Realm in the future, you would then be able to open it. There are a few Cultivation Resources I put inside, which would help you after you reach the Essence Building Realm. With regards to reaching Essence Building Realm, I left a few Spirit Stones and pills for you separately.” Ning Cheng passed over the ring to Dai Xin and spoke.

  As Dai Xin received the ring, she couldn’t help but feel a bit uncomfortable in her heart.

  Currently, the funds possessed by the Cheng Ruolan Company were sufficient. So for it to grow and develop was only a matter of time. However, unfortunately, by that time Elder Brother Xiaocheng might have already departed.

  Moreover, she was also well aware that she would not be able to follow Elder Brother Xiaocheng or walk together with him, as she knew that the difference between her and Elder Brother Xiaocheng was too vast. While she did not look ugly but compared to Ruolan, she was only a medium grade at best. Compared to Ruolan, she was indeed quite far away in regards to beauty. Although she admired Elder Brother Xiaocheng sincerely and was secretly in love with him, this kind of matter, she would not be able to speak out even if she wanted to. If she chose to express it and if Elder Brother Xiaocheng decided to stay together with her, it would not be something natural.

  “While I was cultivating, was there anything else that happened?” Ning Cheng casually asked.

  Ning Ruolan hesitated for a moment before speaking, “Zeng Jiyun came to see you…..”

  Seeing her big brother’s face not changing at all, she felt relieved and continued, “Tian Muwan also came to see you, but I said that you wanted to rest. So she left without any words.”

  Finished speaking about the matters of these two women, Ning Ruolan’s tone relaxed as she continued, “Other than that, Xing Liang, the first ranked among the Five Major Experts came. However, when he did not find you, he seemed a bit unhappy. He left a message that asked you to come to Jing City to see him.”

  Ning Cheng sneered; that person was just a trivial Martial Artist, yet actually daring enough to order him to go meet him.

  “I see, well you don’t have to worry about these things. From now on, I’ll teach you the ways of the True Cultivators.” Ning Cheng directly set aside the matters relating to Xing Liang while he prepared himself to teach his younger sister and Dai Xin about cultivation.

  “Oh right, Big Brother, there was a person called Yin Yihui who was looking for you, he said he was your friend. He sported severe injuries when he came in. I asked Dhulandi to help him after administering basic treatment, so he is currently staying in the hotel.” Ning Ruolan immediately remembered that a few days ago, a person called Yin Yihui had come in covered with scars and quickly spoke out.

  “Yin Yihui got himself injured again?” Ning Cheng suddenly stood up, “I’ll go check it out.”

  Yin Yihui was a person with a good nature. When Ning Cheng had just returned, Yin Yihui was the one who delivered him the first Insect Nucleus.

  ……

  “Elder Brother Ning…..” Yin Yihui on seeing Ning Cheng standing at the entrance immediately called out in surprise. He had thought that he would never be able to meet Elder Brother Ning again. However, he had never imagined that just quoting Elder Brother Ning’s name in the Hundred Bay Point would send him here immediately. Moreover, it was Dhulandi himself who personally helped with his recovery.

  “How did you get injured this badly?” Ning Cheng could see that Yin Yihui had once again suffered substantial internal injuries. However, these injuries were entirely different from his previous internal injuries.

  “Elder Brother Ning, if not for the Cultivation Method that you passed onto me, I would be dead right now.” Yin Yihui spoke with a slightly calm voice.

  Ning Cheng took out
a pill and handed it to Yin Yihui before speaking, “First take the pill, and then operate the Cultivation Method that I taught you to bring out its medicinal nature. It would heal your internal injuries at an even quicker rate.”

  Yin Yihui’s injuries this time were completely different from the last time. The last time, it was purely an internal physical injury, but this time his internal injuries resulted from damage to his meridians. This kind of injury, even if one were a True Cultivator, they would not be able to recover with regular pills. However, Ning Cheng was already close to becoming a Tier 8 Grand Master, as such this kind of injuries were nothing much to him.

  Taking the pill from Ning Cheng, Yin Yihui swallowed it down without any hesitation. Merely a few moments later, Yin Yihui stood up in shock as he cried out, “My injuries have completely healed…..”

  Ning Cheng hinted Yin Yihui to sit down then asked, “Tell me something, this time, the one who injured you should not be someone simple, right?”

  Causing this kind of damage to the meridians, it was something impossible even for a Martial Artist with the same calibre as Dhulandi. Instead, it was something achievable only by using a trace of Spiritual Sense through Cultivation, even if the opposite party was not a True Cultivator, this kind of Cultivation Method was something beyond the means of a Martial Artist. However, Ning Cheng did not feel surprised by it. Since Tian Muwan can become a True Cultivator, then it would not be surprising that there would be more than one person.

  Yin Yihui nodded and spoke, “Is Elder Brother Ning familiar with the Jabbes Line of Defence?”

  Ning Cheng was aware that the Jabbes Line of Defence came into existence after the appearance of the Insect Tide on Earth. It was one of the five Major Lines of Defences jointly established by the entire world. This particular Line of Defence was at the outermost periphery of the Russo-Chinese border, near to the Russian Sea Area. The joint collaboration of the most influential countries of the world set up this Line of Defence. China was also one of them; moreover, it was also the main fighting force there.

  These five Major Lines of Defences were responsible for resisting the insect infestation, filled with the elites from various countries. Yin Yihui possessed some excellent skills already, in addition to the Cultivation Method that Ning Cheng had taught him, his strength should have definitely improved. Let alone all this, didn’t he also provide Yin Yihui with a High-Grade Magical Artefact?

  “After my internal injuries healed last time, and because of the merits that I earned at the border, it allowed me to be promoted to a One-Star Battle General. However, just about a week ago, those insects lurking around seemed to have suddenly eaten some kind of stimulant. As all of them suddenly attacked the Line of Defence. The insects were endless and had almost completely shattered the laser wall around the Jabbes Line of Defence in one go. I was ordered, along with the other Battle Generals, to go to the Jabbes Line of Defence and support them……”

  Speaking until here, it looked as if the blue veins on Yin Yihui would explode at any moment, as he continued, “I was already ready to put down my life to protect the Jabbes Line of Defence. Moreover, just like the other Battle Generals, I rushed to the front lines. Because I had an excellent Essence Weapon on me, it allowed me to kill innumerable insects on the battlefield…”

  “Did someone amongst you covet your Essence Weapon?” Ning Cheng already knew that it was undoubtedly because of this.

  Yin Yihui took a few deep breaths before speaking, “Yes, it was a man named Yan Rui. He called me and said that I had to hand over my Essence Weapon. He added that this type of weapon could only be used to its full potential if paired with a real expert. It was a complete waste of resources in my hands.”

  Ning Cheng gave a sneer.

  Such a substantial and compelling reason.

  “Of course, I did not want to do as he asked, but then that Yan Rui raised his hand and sent out two palm strikes. However, I was unable to escape in time, ending up struck by those two palm strikes. He then kicked me in my chest, causing me to suddenly vomit out a few mouthfuls of blood, but at that time I was completely unable to move.”

  Yin Yihui couldn’t help but clench his fists. “But he was not done yet. Yan Rui actually said that because of the rewards of killing more insects, I had plotted against a comrade-in-arms. He took away all of my military merits, took away my Battle General Medal and took away my Essence Weapon. If it was not for Lord Dhulandi, one of the Five Major Experts, coming to the Jabbes Line of Defence in time, I might have not even been able to come back. Lord Dhulandi knew that I was Elder Brother Ning’s friend, so was able to think of a way to send me back.”

  Ning Cheng frowned, for Yan Rui to kick Yin Yihui and damage his meridians; it showed that he definitely was not someone ordinary.

  “Where is Dhulandi?” Ning Cheng was not too anxious to take care of Yan Rui; his first priority still was to recover his cultivation.

  “After Lord Dhulandi sent me back, he immediately returned to the Jabbes Line of Defence. This was the biggest Insect Tide that we have seen in the past few years. The Line of Defence not only activated all of their laser cannons but also forced to drop a few nuclear bombs into the centre of the Insect Tide. However, even if that was the case, it not only did not reduce the numbers but on the contrary, their numbers keep increasing. I fear……” As Yin Yihui spoke until here, he had already put aside his own anger. However, he was anxious that the insect tide would break through the Jabbes Line of Defence at any moment.

  Once the Jabbes Line of Defence broke apart, then the insect tide would be able to sweep across it to enter inside. At that moment, the entire country would have to face the insect tide just as they encountered it back in the Jabbes Line of Defence. At that time, it would not be only an insect tide, but rather the arrival of hell in the most real sense.

  “Big Brother…” Ning Ruolan worriedly called out from one side. Once the insect tide breached the Jabbes Line of Defence, then the Hundred Bay Point would be one of the first to turn into food for those insects.

  Ning Cheng hesitated once before speaking, “Yihui, we are brothers; this insect tide will eventually be exterminated. You don’t have to worry about it too much. In any case, I must soon lead my sister out of this place. My sister founded the Cheng Ruolan Materials Company, which Dai Xin will take over in the future. If you want, you can join the company and help Dai Xin to share the load.”

  “Elder Brother Ning, I believe you. I will definitely listen to you.” Even if Ning Cheng had not spoken about it, Yin Yihui did not want to go back to the Jabbes Line of Defence. When Yan Rui was openly plotting against him, there was not even a single person there who stood up in protest. If not for Dhulandi present there, he would have already been dead at this moment.

  Moreover, he has also had high regard for Ning Cheng’s skills. Could an ordinary person teach him a Cultivation Method that would help recovering from his internal injury completely? Can a regular person casually give away an Essence Weapon? Can they take out a pill that could restore him this quickly?

  ……

  Ning Cheng spent three days on the outside, after passing the most foundational level of Cultivation Methods to Ning Ruolan and Dai Xin and leaving behind a few Spirit Stones for them. Ning Cheng immediately went into seclusion to restore his cultivation once again.

  Three days later, Ning Cheng was able to restore his cultivation to the Profound Congealing 2nd Level. However, Ning Cheng did not choose to go out just yet. He wanted to recover his strength back to the Soul Sculpting 4th Level in one fell swoop.

  A month later, Ning Cheng restored his cultivation to Soul Essence 6th Level, but at this time, he received a message from his sister, Ning Ruolan.

  Ning Cheng immediately came out of his Miniature World. His sister would not have sent him the signal if there were no problems.

  After Ning Cheng came out, not only did he see the three people Ning Ruolan, Dai Xin, and Yin Yihui, he also saw Dhulandi. In addition to them
, there was a woman who Ning Cheng did not know. However, Ning Cheng was also sure that he had never seen such a curvaceous woman before; just her face was enough to cause the downfall of nations and garner the envy of others. Even if compared to Tian Muwan, it was not one whit inferior.

  Dhulandi no longer looked the way he appeared when Ning Cheng last saw him. Now that Ning Cheng saw him again, he looked like most of his hair had burnt off. Although he was wearing clothes over his body, Ning Cheng could make out in a glance that many wounds covered his entire body.

  There was even a long bloody scar running down from his chin to the back of the neck and looked shocking. However, what made Ning Cheng feel a bit joyful was that both Ruolan and Dai Xin had progressed to become Qi Gathering 1st Level Cultivators, which also meant that both of them had good Spiritual Roots.

  “What’s going on?” Ning Cheng asked Dhulandi in the puzzle, “Why are you hurt this badly? Was the Jabbes Line of Defence breached by the insects?”

  Ning Cheng already reckoned that the Jabbes Line of Defence would not be able to hold for long, but it had only been a little more than a month, so the Jabbes Line of Defence should still be holding steady. Looks like it would not be able to stop the endless Demon Insects.

  “Elder Brother Ning, the Jabbes Line of Defence is still standing, but it would not be able to hold on for long.” Yin Yihui quickly explained.

  Ning Cheng nodded; he was not much worried about the Jabbes Line of defence. He was anyway going to destroy all these insects. However, that did not mean that he would recklessly go out without first wholly restoring his cultivation. This time the Insect Tide turned out to be more significant than the ones before. Apparently, the Insect Queen had finally started to make a move. Moreover, Ning Cheng who had returned from the World of True Cultivators knew that the Insect Queen would definitely be quite powerful. If he had a noble heart, then he would have already recklessly charged in to fight with the Insect Queen when he had restored his cultivation to the Essence Building Realm. However, it would not have been a fight; instead, he would only be going there to die.
