    Chapter 848: The Fourth Transformation of the Martial King

    Xian Rujing kept staring at Qin Yun, for she suspected that this bald man might very well be that "Brother Yun."

    "Is this really your brother? When did you have a brother? I’ve inquired about you, and you were an only child!" Xian Rujing looked at Long Yucang with a face full of doubt.

    "This brother of mine was born to my father outside our family, so he’s considered a bastard! We’ve always had a good relationship. After my father died, I needed help in Dragon King Manor, so I brought him here!" As Long Yucang spoke, he also patted Qin Yun's bald head.

    It felt smooth, just like a real bald head.

    Xian Rujing also saw the shiny bald head, which didn’t look like it was fake at all.

    "Did that Yun mention where he went?" Xian Rujing asked.

    "He didn’t say! I don’t even know if he’s really surnamed Yun!" Long Yucang shook his head and smiled: "In any case, he’s already far from Dragon King Manor, and he’s gained quite a lot this time!"

    "Hmph, that scoundrel, actually left without even saying goodbye to me!" Xian Rujing gritted her teeth and said.

    "Miss Xian, didn’t you hate him very much?" Long Yucang laughed.

    "Of course I hated him! That’s why I came looking for him, planning to take revenge!" Xian Rujing snorted coldly: "He got off easy!"

    Long Yucang shook his head: "Brother Yun is indeed quite capable. He encountered several situations in Dragon King Manor but remained unscathed. I wonder if I’ll ever meet him again!"

    Xian Rujing suddenly whispered: "Long Yucang, answer me honestly… Did that Yun go to any brothels?"

    "I don’t know, I certainly didn’t take him there… But then again, someone like him probably has many women around him! There’s no need for him to go to those places, and he wouldn’t look down on the courtesans in the brothels." Long Yucang laughed: "His taste is far superior to that of Long Chuanwu!"

    Xian Rujing shot a glance at Long Yucang: "Men are all the same, none of you are good!"

    Qin Yun remained silent, watching from the side.

    Xian Rujing had now dispelled her doubts. The power of the life-sharing talisman between her and Qin Yun had also expired, so she could no longer sense him.

    "Long Yucang, if you see that guy again, give him this letter. Don't you dare peek at it, or I'll take your life!" Xian Rujing took out an envelope and handed it to Long Yucang.

    "Sure thing!" Long Yucang accepted it.

    After giving the letter to Long Yucang, Xian Rujing hurriedly left.

    Once she was gone, Long Yucang handed the letter to Qin Yun with a smile, "Brother Yun, it seems this woman has some feelings for you!"

    "Don't be ridiculous!" Qin Yun opened the letter, which instructed him to find her in the Immortal Wasteland using this letter and provided a location.

    Long Yucang didn't ask what was written inside, saying, "The tournament might start in a few days. Are you really sure you want to participate?"

    Qin Yun smiled, "If you can defeat Long Chuanwu, I wouldn't bother! But your strength isn't enough, so I have to do it myself!"

    Long Yucang pouted, "I admit I can't beat Long Chuanwu, but are you really sure you can?"

    "Of course I can!" Qin Yun was now at the Martial King realm, feeling confident that dealing with Long Chuanwu would be no issue.

    Over the next few days, Long Yucang often took Qin Yun around, introducing him as his brother and helping him get familiar with Dragon King Manor.

    The people in Dragon King Manor, seeing the two brothers looked very similar, didn't suspect anything and just laughed, calling Qin Yun the bald version of Long Yucang.

    During these days, Long Yucang kept touching Qin Yun's head, much to Qin Yun's annoyance.

    But Long Yucang argued that this would make their brotherly bond seem more genuine and avoid suspicion, so Qin Yun endured it.

    He silently blamed Xiao Yuemei for turning him into a shiny, bald head.

    The internal tournament within the Dragon King's residence was also confirmed, allowing both Xuanwu and Wuwang realm practitioners to participate, but ultimately only one victor could emerge.

    The winner would obtain the Dragon-Phoenix Martial Soul!

    It was well-known that Long Qiaofeng’s Dragon-Phoenix Martial Souls were of the Purple-Gold grade, and the Dragon Martial Soul even had a dragon totem.

    Therefore, those participating in the tournament included not only young descendants but also some older Wuwang realm practitioners who met the criteria, all vying to join.

    What made Qin Yun feel particularly frustrated was that Xian Rujing actually signed up as well!

    Xian Rujing was at the late Wuwang realm, and with her level, she could easily defeat most peak Wuwang practitioners.

    There was nothing the Long family or the Heavenly Dragon Clan could do; Xian Rujing had been insisting on participating, so they made an exception for her.

    The Long family suddenly felt immense pressure, because if an outsider, especially a woman like Xian Rujing, were to truly obtain the Dragon-Phoenix Martial Soul, it would be a significant loss for their Dragon King Manor.

    "Damn Ice Mother Tiger, she's really causing chaos!" Long Yucang muttered in the hall.

    "Don't worry, I can defeat her, though it won't be easy," Qin Yun remained relatively calm.

    "That's a late Wuwang realm practitioner we're talking about, and she comes from the Immortal Wasteland, mastering many excellent martial arts. Not just you, even some peak Wuwang practitioners might not be able to beat her!" Long Yucang said.

    The tournament was set to begin in three days, and the people of Dragon King Manor were groaning in despair, as none of them wanted to face Xian Rujing.

    Long Yucang did not participate; he knew his own strength well, and even if he did join, it would be difficult to win first place, and he might even get killed.

    At night, Qin Yun practiced in his room, aiming to become more familiar with the power of the Wuwang realm.

    "The Wu Wang realm has four transformations. With each transformation, the martial path mystic power within the Dao Xuan Pill will strengthen. By the fourth transformation, the Dao Xuan Pill will fully evolve, and the King’s Power will reach its peak!" Qin Yun thought to himself.

    Xiao Yuemei didn’t feel bored inside the Nine Yang Divine Spirit, as there were many interesting things, especially those Imperial Stone Mothers, which fascinated her greatly.

    Qin Yun also hoped to learn that mysterious Dao technique as soon as possible, but Yao Fang had made little progress. She said she was researching a simpler learning method.

    Knock knock knock!

    Long Yucang knocked on the door and called out, "Brother, are you free now?"

    After opening the door, Qin Yun asked, "It's already night. What's up?"

    "Our Dragon King Manor is having a gathering, just for us young people. Are you coming?" Long Yucang smiled. "Xian Rujing will be there too!"

    "If she’s there, Long Chuanwu must be there as well. I won’t go then!" Qin Yun said.

    "Wait a moment, brother... That gathering is actually hosted by Long Chuanwu! The fool doesn’t seem to know that Xian Rujing found out about his visits to the brothels, so he’s been trying to win her heart back!" Long Yucang added.

    "What does that have to do with me?" Qin Yun said with a smirk.

    "Of course it does. It was you who ruined their relationship in the first place! They might reconcile at this gathering, so of course you should go and ruin their relationship again!" Long Yucang laughed. "You’re quite skilled at this kind of thing!"

    "No benefit, no deal. I’m not going!" Qin Yun smiled. "Even if the moon falls from the sky, they will never get back together!"

    Through his interactions with Xian Rujing over the past period, Qin Yun knew very well that she was a woman of great pride. Especially after learning about Long Chuanwu’s dirty and malicious thoughts towards her, he wished he could kill Long Chuanwu.

    "Hey, brother! Did you manage to win her over? There have been rumors that you took advantage of Xian Rujing in the dungeon!" Long Yucang laughed. "You let Xian Rujing know about Long Chuanwu’s visits to the brothels, and then when she was heartbroken, you moved in... That’s high-level strategy! Really high-level!"

    Long Yucang gave Qin Yun a thumbs up!

    "Brother, don't talk nonsense!" Qin Yun slapped away his thumb and laughed scoldingly.

    "You're thinking of getting some benefits, right? That's easy. Long Chuanwu is a very vain guy. I'll start a bet with him, wager something, and he'll definitely take the bait!" Long Yucang said with a sinister smile. "With our two brothers working together, we can definitely screw that guy over!"

    "Alright!" Qin Yun thought for a moment, then walked out.

    ...

    To the east of Dragon King Manor, in an elegant garden, many luminous stones floated in the air, illuminating the beautiful garden.

    In this garden, there were many handsome men and beautiful women dressed in luxurious attire.

    Among them, Long Chuanwu and Xian Rujing stood out the most.

    Especially Xian Rujing, wearing a noble and exquisite blue dress, with a blue headband that sparkled, she seemed to be enveloped in a divine aura, like a cold and beautiful fairy untouched by worldly affairs.

    Xian Rujing made many of the gorgeously dressed beauties in Dragon King Manor seem dull in comparison, as such an aura was not something anyone could possess.

    Long Chuanwu wore a light golden embroidered robe. After all, he had come down from the Immortal Wasteland, and he himself held a high status, excelling in every aspect.

    Among the younger generation of Dragon King Manor, only Long Yucang was the most outstanding, but he still couldn't match Long Chuanwu.

    Although Xian Rujing attended this gathering, she remained cold and icy, her eyes filled with cold anger.

    Long Chuanwu didn't know what he had done wrong to make this woman, who once adored him, become like this.

    This was a gathering of young masters, usually filled with competition.

    But today, the main characters were Long Chuanwu and Xian Rujing, so everyone else appeared relatively low-key, coming here just to eat, drink, chat, and pretend to exchange martial arts knowledge.

    Long Yucang arrived later, bringing Qin Yun with him.

    Qin Yun had transformed into a lean, dark-skinned bald man. Though he wore decent black clothing, there was an indescribable rustic quality about him.

    "Long Yucang, you’ve got some nerve showing up at this gathering! Don’t forget, your father was killed by Long Chuanwu!" A young man, spotting Long Yucang, chuckled.

    "Don’t worry, I will avenge my father!" Long Yucang snorted coldly. "I have a grudge against Long Chuanwu, but that doesn’t stop me from coming here to eat and drink for free!"

    Although Long Chuanwu had organized this gathering, Xian Rujing ignored him, which infuriated him.

    Seeing the brothers Long Yucang and Qin Yun arrive, he hurried over, eager to find someone to vent his anger on.
