Translator: Silavin Just its title had already intimidated most of the powerful experts here. The Three Outstanding Prodigies of the Royal City represented the three most excellent young prodigies of the entire Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty! Their achievements were something that even many older generation experts had to look up to. [Luo Qingyu, huh?] Qin Yichen’s gaze also slightly focused on that figure. Luo Qingyu just stood there, yet he was like an unsheathed sharp sword. A kind of sharp aura quietly spread out, causing the surrounding people to involuntarily step back, clearing out a space. Facing the gazes of hundreds of people, Luo Qingyu’s eyes swept over them lightly. From his gaze, Qin Yichen could see his indifference towards everyone, or rather, a kind of contempt or disregard. Of course, with Luo Qingyu’s strength and status, he indeed had this qualification! There were only two others who could compare with the Proud Heavenly Swordsman of the Royal City’s Luo Family. That would be the other two of the Three Outstanding Prodigies… The Blood Shedding Addict, Du Junxiong of the Royal City’s Du Family. The Carefree Scholar Wang Hailin of the Royal City’s Wang Family. Among these three, Luo Qingyu and Wang Hailin were both Mid Stage Martial Grandmasters, while Du Junxiong, who ranked first among the three, had reached this realm three years ago. However, because Du Junxiong had not shown his strength in recent years, no one knew his exact cultivation level. But it was rumoured that he had already broken through to the Peak Stage Martial Grandmaster Realm, and had left the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty to venture into larger places. After all, the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty was just a small prefecture on the large continent. Its stage was no longer enough for Du Junxiong to display his talent. “Luo Qingyu, what is he doing here? Could it be that he also came because he saw the phenomenon?” “It should be because of the previous phenomenon. It’s said that a few days ago, someone saw him enter the Black Demon Mountain Range…” “It seems his purpose for coming to the Black Demon Mountain Range is very clear.” Whispers of discussion quietly spread among the crowd. For this prodigy of the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty, they could only look up with admiring gazes. Because of Luo Qingyu’s arrival, many people who still had a glimmer of hope saw their last hope shattered. Whoosh! Just as the people were wondering why he wanted to go down the cliff, someone flew up from below. Judging from the aura on his body, he should also be a Martial Grandmaster. After coming up, he went to Luo Qingyu’s side and started whispering in his ear. Obviously, this Martial Grandmaster was someone who had gone down first to scout the situation below the cliff for him. After listening to this person’s report, Luo Qingyu’s brows visibly furrowed. “Everyone, I am Luo Qingyu, and I wish to ask for your help. Of course, I will give you adequate compensation. Is anyone willing?” After a moment, Luo Qingyu turned around and cupped his hands towards everyone. “Even the Proud Heavenly Swordsman needs our help?” Everyone looked at each other, somewhat confused. After all, almost everyone here was only Martial Masters, with Martial Grandmasters being few and far between. If even Luo Qingyu could not accomplish something, how could they possibly do it? “Young Master Luo, I’m afraid our strength is insufficient.” However, someone still stood up, with a clearly flattering tone in their voice. “Hehe, what you all don’t know is that my subordinate has already explored the true situation at the bottom of this cliff… Below this Black Wood Cliff, there is an ancient ruin!” Luo Qingyu said casually, and hearing this, many people’s breathing became heavy. An ancient ruin! Having survived the passage of time, it certainly would not be ordinary. If they could obtain one or two treasures or Pill Formulas from the ruin… Thinking of this, everyone felt their hearts itch with desire, eager to try. However, Qin Yichen was unmoved by the temptation in Luo Qingyu’s words, and instead became more vigilant. He had some impression of Luo Qingyu. However, what he knew of him was far from good. In his memory, Luo Qingyu was a person who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals. Even if the latter’s words might have sounded appealing, Qin Yichen would not pay attention to them. “However, there is a peculiar Restriction in that ruin. Anyone who enters cannot use even a bit of their Yuan Energy.” Luo Qingyu continued speaking, while also observing everyone’s expressions. The corners of his mouth curved into a strange arc. The information he provided was not false. There was indeed a ruin below Black Wood Cliff, and upon entering the ruin, Yuan Energy would be suppressed in the Dantian and could not be used. People entering could only rely on their own physical strength. What he did not mention was… after so long, some evil creatures had been spawned within the ruin. What exactly they were, even the scout did not know clearly, because it took him a great deal of effort to kill just one evil creature. Although Yuan Energy was suppressed and could not be used, as a Martial Grandmaster, that person’s Physique was incomparable to ordinary people. A punch from him would be equivalent to a strike from a Martial Master with Yuan Energy. Luo Qingyu announced this information not because he wanted to share the things inside the ruin with these people, but because he needed these people to act as cannon fodder to clear the way! “Once inside the ruin, I’m actually the same as all of you, just an ordinary person. So, I want to ask for your help. As long as you can help me obtain the treasures inside, I, Luo Qingyu, will definitely offer you a generous reward!” Luo Qingyu spoke politely, but Qin Yichen had already understood his intentions. However, these people’s eyes all lit up. It was a generous reward from the Young Master of the Royal City’s Luo Family, after all. It was probably wealth they could never obtain, even if they risked their lives for a lifetime. “Haha, Luo Qingyu, you’ve beaten me to it again!” Just as many people were about to agree to his proposal, suddenly, a light laugh was heard. Then, people saw a white figure flying over the cliff from the direction Luo Qingyu had come from, accompanied by the sound of breaking wind. When he landed, people could finally see his appearance clearly. This person wore a white brocade robe, with a silver crown binding his hair, exuding an aura of elegance. “The Carefree Scholar… Wang Hailin!” Looking at this youth in white robes, many people’s eyes flashed with shock. They had not expected that this phenomenon would attract two of the Three Outstanding Prodigies of the Heavenly Unicorn Dynasty. Being able to see such figures and observe their aura, they had truly broaden their horizons, something they could certainly boast about in the future. “Everyone, my purpose is the same as Luo Qingyu’s. However, for those willing to follow me, whether we can obtain valuable treasures or not, I will give each person a reward of one thousand silver coins.” Wang Hailin seemed to already know the situation and did not waste words, getting straight to the point. One thousand silver coins! This was considered a huge sum. Moreover, this was the reward for returning empty-handed. If they could help him obtain one or two items… Just thinking about it made everyone’s breathing quicken.
