Chapter 58 Silver Dragon Soul Killing Spear

After returning to the Luoya Inn, Qin Jun found the first floor crowded and noisy. As soon as they saw him, the crowd fell silent.

The atmosphere felt eerie, and Qin Jun couldn't help but swallow nervously. Being stared at by so many people made him feel uncomfortable.

"Could they be enemies?"

Qin Jun frowned at the thought. Just then, the innkeeper squeezed through the crowd and excitedly grabbed Qin Jun's hand, exclaiming, "Third Prince, you're finally back! I've prepared a feast to celebrate for you!"

As soon as he spoke, the cultivators behind him erupted in excitement.

"He is the Third Prince?"

"Yes! It's him! He's also the Lord Jun!"

"No wonder Lord Jun is so powerful, daring to ignore the Fifth Prince!"

"So handsome, and so talented!"

"I heard that the Third Prince has already reached the Foundation Establishment stage. What a genius!"

Listening to the admiring and excited words of the cultivators, Qin Jun couldn't help but feel proud. It seemed that he had also gained a large number of fans!

But he couldn't show off too much!

After all, he now held the status of a prince and couldn't act like a nobody!

He waved his hand and chuckled, "Alright, are you all not going to let me in?"

The cultivators quickly expressed their deference and parted like a tide.

The innkeeper then led Qin Jun, Guan Yu, and Daji to a table already set with food and drinks. As for Chang Qianqian, she had already returned to the inn where the disciples of the Xuanling Sect resided.

The gazes of the cultivators fell on the extraordinary Guan Yu, filled with admiration, awe, and worship.

Compared to Qin Jun, the cultivators admired Guan Yu more. His feat of slaying Xiao Beilong with a single strike had become a legendary event, and countless cultivators were speculating about just how powerful Guan Yu truly was.

But it was certain that he was definitely above the Foundation Establishment stage.

"Innkeeper, well done. You've prepared everything so thoroughly!" Qin Jun smiled at the innkeeper standing beside him. In response, the innkeeper just shook his head and said, "When I heard that His Highness and General Guan had turned the tide of the conflict between the two countries at the Vermilion Bird Terrace, I had already instructed the staff to start preparing."

Guan Yu stroked his beard and thanked, "Thank you for your kind intentions."

The other cultivators also found their seats and sat down. Due to Guan Yu's formidable reputation and Qin Jun's high status, they didn't dare to approach them.

At this moment, Yan Mobai descended from the third floor and came to the table, kneeling down with excitement. "From today onwards, our Yanbei Merchant Association will look up to His Highness!"

The Yanbei Merchant Association!

The inn instantly fell silent. In the capital city and even throughout the entire kingdom, the Yanbei Merchant Association was well-known.

However, the association had disappeared from public view not long ago, leaving people puzzled. Now, they were unexpectedly seeking to align themselves with Qin Jun.

"Ding! Side quest completed—Subdue the Yanbei Merchant Association! Reward: 4000 experience points and one random draw opportunity!"

"Ding! Congratulations, host, for breaking through the seventh level of the Foundation Establishment stage!"

Two consecutive system prompts sounded, and immediately, a strange heat surged within Qin Jun's body. He clearly felt his spiritual power doubling.

Great! Not only did he level up, but he also gained a chance for a random draw!

He quickly gestured for Yan Mobai to stand up and said, "Rest assured, I will ensure the Yanbei Merchant Association flourishes as it did before!"

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Yan Mobai exclaimed with excitement.

After hearing about Qin Jun and Guan Yu's performance at the Vermilion Bird Terrace, Yan Mobai had no doubts about Qin Jun's words.

Based on the achievements Qin Jun had gained today, as the first prince to be conferred a title, he had already surpassed the Fifth Prince, Qin Yu!

In other words, as long as he followed Qin Jun, he no longer needed to fear or be in awe of Qin Yu.

"Haha, let's eat, let's eat!" Qin Jun waved his hand and laughed. After all, today could be considered a complete turnaround, and the joy made him have a hearty appetite.

Meanwhile, in a certain guest room on the second floor, You Fenghuang was listening to a maid recounting everything that had happened at the Vermilion Bird Terrace today.

"Slain Xiao Beilong with a single strike..." You Fenghuang's face revealed a look of shock.

Although the Kingdom of Qianyue and the Kingdom of Canglan were not within her scope of concern, figures like Xiao Beilong and Nan Meng were still people she often paid attention to. Even in the Southern Ocean Holy Sect, powerful individuals at the Foundation Establishment stage held high positions.

"Yes, many people witnessed it with their own eyes. Xiao Beilong didn't even have a chance to make a move!" The maid's face was filled with admiration. Following You Fenghuang around, she had also seen many powerful individuals, but those who could easily kill someone at the Foundation Establishment stage were rare. Now, the person was downstairs, how could she not be excited?

You Fenghuang couldn't help but furrow her brows slightly and murmured to herself, "It seems that this son of Qin truly has a force behind him that is not inferior to the Southern Ocean Holy Sect. We must not offend him and can only befriend him."

Qin Jun never expected that the events at the Vermilion Bird Terrace would lead many to mistakenly believe that he had a powerful force backing him. But even if he knew, he wouldn't explain.

The beautiful and pretentious misunderstanding would continue, at least deterring many potential enemies.

...

Returning to his room with a body full of alcohol, the Howling Heaven Hound helped him close the door. He sat on the bed and began to meditate, using the Purple Rainbow Thunder Method to dispel the alcohol.

"Young and successful, as long as he doesn't become arrogant."

The Howling Heaven Hound murmured a sentence and then lay down to rest. It was very satisfied with Qin Jun's performance today, the kind of master like this was worth following.

After a while, when the alcohol had dissipated from his body, Qin Jun didn't open his eyes but said in his mind, "System, I want to start the draw!"

"Ding! Starting random draw..."

The As-You-Will Gold-Banded Cudgel!

The Lotus Lamp!

The Twelve-Rank Green Lotus!

The Sword of Killing Immortals!

The Wind and Fire Wheels, the Qiankun Ring, the Chaos Silk...

Lord Qin recited all the divine weapons he could think of in his mind, considering his current luck, hoping not to draw something useless this time.

"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have drawn the Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear, from the East Sea Dragon Palace in 'Journey to the West'."

Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear?

The name sounds imposing, but did 'Journey to the West' really have such a spear?

Lord Qin's face showed a wry smile. It seemed that the system sensed his frustration, so it explained, "The East Sea Dragon Palace in 'Journey to the West' contains countless divine weapons, even Sun Wukong obtained his Ruyi Jingu Bang from there. Although the Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear is far inferior to the Ruyi Jingu Bang, it is also a top-grade celestial weapon, weighing five thousand catties!"

"Most importantly, the Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear has the ability to absorb souls, and its grade can be upgraded!"

A top-grade celestial weapon!

Lord Qin's eyes lit up. He quickly demanded in his mind, "Quick, show it to me!"

As soon as he spoke, he felt a flash of silver light in front of him. The next moment, his face turned pale as he felt an unimaginable weight pressing down on his body. The bed and floor couldn't withstand its weight and collapsed.

Five thousand catties, equivalent to over two tons, like a giant elephant suddenly pressing down on Lord Qin.

As his body rapidly plummeted, he urgently commanded in his mind, "Quick, take it back!"

With a loud bang!

He landed on the floor of the second-floor guest room. Fortunately, the Silver Dragon Soul-Slaying Spear was promptly retrieved by the system; otherwise, he would have fallen to the first floor.

"Such a fragrant smell..."

Lord Qin subconsciously turned his head to look, and the next moment, his face instantly froze, and he couldn't help but curse in his mind.
