Translator: 549690339

Lin’an County.

Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

[Name]: Jiang Yuan

[Realm]: Body Forging Realm 4 (Bone Strengthening)

[Innate Fate]: Superior Understanding (Green) Robust Physique (White)

[Qi Yun Power]: 0 strands

[Superior Understanding]: Your innate understanding is exceptionally higher than that of ordinary people, making it easier for you to comprehend the mysteries of any techniques.

[Robust Physique]: You naturally have a strong body, possessing good talent in the Body Forging technique.

On the martial arts platform, Jiang Yuan ceased his body hammering, allowing sweat to naturally drip.

He glanced at the information on his status panel and an expression of helplessness surfaced on his face.

It had been a month since he arrived in this world. Despite his various attempts, he was unable to figure out how to acquire Qi Yun Power.

As for the suddenly appeared status panel, it was indeed helpful to him.

It made him realize his strengths. He was aware of his outstanding talent in the realm of Body Forging and his extraordinary understanding.

Over the month, through his rigorous cultivation, he had successfully advanced from the third level of the Body Forging Realm to the fourth.

And now, he felt that he was not far from reaching the fifth level of the Body Forging Realm.

His bones were now robust, his muscles like a dragon.

The massive progress he made in just a short month was largely due to the dashboard guiding him towards his natural abilities.

This alone was enough to proclaim Jiang Yuan as a prodigious young man throughout Lin’an County.

In the month since arriving here, after observing various groups of people around Lin’an City, he noticed that the vast majority of people had no innate fate on their status board.

Plain board!

Only those with successful cultivation occasionally had the addition of the white-colored Innate Fate.

As for the green level Innate Fate, Jiang Yuan has seen less than five so far.

On the other hand, Jiang Yuan was not originally from this world.

A month ago, due to some accident, he suddenly arrived in this world.

He ended up in a person who shares the same name, surname, and looks as his.

According to the memories in his mind, Zhenyuan Escort Agency was the career his father, Jiang Zhenyuan, worked hard on for his entire life.

He was a notable figure in Lin’an County.

His capabilities at the eighth level of the Body Forging Realm ranked him among the best in Lin’an County.

His Wind Thunder Sword technique had gained him some renown.

Over the years, he earned the title of Wind Thunder Sword.

Which was why he could keep expanding the Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

As the only son of Jiang Yuan, he naturally had an easy life since childhood.

But, everything changed a few days ago.

News broke out that Jiang Zhenyuan had failed during his most recent escort mission.

He messed up big time, losing both his people and the items he was guarding.

Because of this news, many unfamiliar faces have appeared at the entrance of the Zhenyuan Escort Agency in the past few days.

The intentions of these people were clear; they were here to keep an eye on the agency.

If that piece of gossip was false, then, based on his estimated journey time, the Wind Thunder Sword – Jiang Zhenyuan – should appear at the Zhenyuan Escort Agency to put people at ease.

Jiang Yuan pondered this quietly.

He wondered about the status of the information Uncle Ma was sent to verify three days ago.

If the news is true, then it’s like I’m a child flaunting gold in a market – I’m in danger.

This world is far from the safety of my previous life!

Just as Jiang Yuan was weighing his options.

Outside, a sudden uproar arose.

The next moment.

Boom!

A loud noise rang out.

As if hit by a siege weapon, the tightly closed gate of the agency exploded open, and the door spikes instantly became pieces of broken wood scattering in all directions.

There were cries of surprise from outside the yard.

“It’s… Lei Zhan! The second master of the Black Wind Tribe! How dare he come to Lin’an County, doesn’t he want to live?”

The echoes of the noise just began to rise when Jiang Yuan looked up towards the entrance of the agency.

There he saw that the door, originally tightly closed, was now flung wide open, with a clear fist print marked on the wrought-iron door.

Following this, a burly giant of eight feet stepped over the threshold, his muscles glaring with ferocity, resembling a beast ready to tear apart his prey.

Even more striking was the six-inch knife scar on his face, which now looked like a centipede resting on his face.

“What forged iron door? It can’t even withstand one punch from me.”

Lei Zhan laughed heartily.

Jiang Yuan squinted at him, retrieving memories about Lei Zhan in his mind.

Then he took another look at his status panel.

[Name]: Lei Zhan

[Realm]: Body Forging Realm Level 7 (Blood Replacement)

[Innate Fate]: Strength of an Ox (White)

[Strength of an Ox]: Naturally has greater strength than normal people.

A sinking feeling rose within Jiang Yuan’s heart.

Lei Zhan, the second in command of Black Wind Tribe.

Just as the rumors say, he has already reached the seventh level of the Body Forging Realm, imposing a nearly invincible might among his peers.

Legend has it that he once battled a master of the eighth level of the Body Forging Realm for a long time, their match ending in a stalemate.

Such a terrifying record, but he is only the second in command of Black Wind Tribe.

The Grand Master compared to him, is stronger, and under their command, they have hundreds of bandits roaming the mountains and forestry.

No wonder my father in the past years could ignore tribute to other tribes, but was obliged to pay tribute annually to the Black Wind Tribe on time.

The strength of the Black Wind Tribe is enough to dominate an entire county.

All the escort agencies in the surrounding county, only if they pay their tribute timely, will the Black Wind Tribe allow them to run escorts around this place.

The next moment, Jiang Yuan’s eyes were instantly attracted to his right hand.

He saw him holding a person in his hand, an old man near the end of his life.

Uncle Ma!

Jiang Yuan’s gaze froze immediately.

Lei Zhan seemed to feel Jiang Yuan’s gaze.

He lifted his right hand and grinned, “Don’t worry, he’s not dead! The Grand Master said, being friendly is the way to make money.”

Finishing his words, he flung his right hand.

The old man was flung swiftly towards Jiang Yuan.

Seeing this, a hint of gravity appeared on Jiang Yuan’s face.

His legs suddenly sunk, his muscles bulged, his veins pulsed, and his back seemed to bend like a great bow.

The next moment, his arms reached out and firmly grabbed Uncle Ma’s body.

Then, he redirected the force and gently placed him on the ground.

His fingers then lightly touched his neck.

Feeling the pulse still throbbing at the tip of his fingers, Jiang Yuan finally let out a breath of relief.

On the other side, a trace of surprise flickered across the carefree face of Lei Zhan.

He himself is in the seventh level of the Body Forging Realm, his qi and blood have already greatly succeeded, plus his natural divine strength, his power far exceeds those of the same realm.

Just now when he randomly flung the old man, although he didn’t use his full strength, it still should have been around a thousand pounds of force.

According to the information he had gathered earlier, Jiang Zhenyuan’s son was only barely at the third level of the Body Forging Realm.

He should have been unable to catch his fling and must have been terrified.

Considering it now, the information he received earlier was wrong. This young man was not the good-for-nothing he seemed to be in the report, but rather seemed to have been hiding some strength.

But looking at the situation of Zhenyuan Escort Agency, even with his kind of strength, it was like a floating duckweed in the wind, with no potential to struggle.

If he knows his place, he might still be able to save his life.

Thinking about this, he opened his mouth and said: “Not bad, are you Jiang Zhenyuan’s son, Jiang Yuan?”

“Indeed I am. I wonder what the second-in-command of Black Wind Tribe wants to do by coming to my door today?”

While Jiang Yuan asked, he took out a pill for Uncle Ma.

“Of course, I have something!” Lei Zhan laughed heartily.

He stepped on a nearby rock, his body slightly bent, his right arm casually resting on his thigh: “I’m here to collect debt. Your old man didn’t pay our tribute this year. Now, with accumulated interest, it’s a total of three thousand taels of silver.”

At this moment, Uncle Ma awoke and heard Lei Zhan’s words.

Immediately, anger surged in his heart and he opened his eyes wide: “You’re full of crap! At the beginning of the year, I personally delivered a hundred taels of silver to your tribal leader together with the Grand Old Master.”

Lei Zhan grinned, probing his ear, a grim smile on his face.

“A hundred taels? Are you trying to dismiss a beggar? Now, bring me three thousand taels of silver, or the people of the Zhenyuan Escort Agency, all of whom are several tens of people, would have to wait for others to collect your bodies!”

Done talking, he lightly stomped his right foot.

Boom!

The rock under his feet instantly shattered, stone fragments splashed, and a majestic wave of qi and blood rolled towards Jiang Yuan and Uncle Ma.

Jiang Yuan lightly placed his right hand on Uncle Ma’s shoulder, pressing down on a slightly agitated Uncle Ma.

“Fine! But I will need a month to gather three thousand taels of silver. In one month, I can gather three thousand taels of silver.”

Upon hearing this, Lei Zhan’s expression was taken aback.

It was as if he could hardly believe his ears, this was completely beyond his expectations.

All the assets of the Zhenyuan Escort Agency added up, according to his estimates, are no more than ten thousand taels of silver.

Three thousand taels of silver would severely wound the Escort Agency’s resources.

Unexpectedly, the son of Jiang Zhenyuan is quite sensible.

Thinking about this, the imposing manner he had accumulated also dissipated.

He shook his head, showing three fingers.

“Three days, I’m only giving you three days.”

Jiang Yuan spoke calmly, unperturbed, “You should know that this is three thousand taels of silver, not three hundred. Who would have three thousand taels of ready silver lying around? I need at least seven days to gather it.”

“Fine! Then I’ll give you seven days! In seven days, I will personally come to collect it.”

He then grinned, showing a grim smile, “I hope you don’t try any tricks. If you can’t produce it at that time, I believe you know what the consequences are.”

Finished speaking, he stomped his right foot, the stone bricks underneath shattered instantly, and he rose into the air, landing on the wall.

After a few jumps, he headed straight for the outskirts of the city.

Meanwhile, following Lei Zhan’s departure.

Outside Zhenyuan Escort Agency, one by one strange figures began to disperse.

The second-in-command of the Black Wind Tribe daring to appear so openly in Lin’an City, the implications of this were substantial.

And he even went to Zhenyuan Escort Agency to ask for three thousand taels of silver, this piece of news was even more shocking to them.
