Chapter 1240

(Unedited)

…

As he enters his room, Xin Ja waves his hand and a small chest appears in his palm. The small chest is finely crafted inlaid with gold-plated engravings.

He slowly unlocks the box and saw a small stone ore inside.

"This is… Heavenly Ki stone…" Xin Ja muttered as he quickly closes the box and kept it inside his ring.

A Heavenly Ki stone is a thousand times more precious than normal Ki stones. This is because… a Heavenly Ki stone contains a thousand times more energy than a normal Ki stone.

And the purity of the Ki energy is incomparable.

Only those at the Ki Master level could handle the energy of a Heavenly Ki stone without repercussion. Usually Ki masters and above could not use the normal Ki stones anymore as they could not provide the Ki energy they needed.

And so because of that, they would scour the world in search of Heavenly Ki stones.

Luckily a kingdom could still provide a Ki master 5 Heavenly Ki stones per year… and Xin Ja have seen Master Wang using one before.

That is the reason why he is familiar with the stone inside the box when he first saw it.

"I could use such power when the time comes…" he muttered as he checked the other things he found from that young master's Mule.

As the creator of the Mules, Xin Ja of course knew how he could break through its defenses and security measures.

His eyes then glowed when he saw another object mysterious object.

"This is Shen Metal ore…" Xin Ja muttered as he checked the palm-size metal ore.

"Where did this guy get these materials?" he muttered as he is now curious at the background of that young master.

Upon seeing the ore, a slight excitement could be seen in Xin Ja's eyes. Once he could refine the stone, then he could have another arsenal to fight against those powerful beings at the Ki Master level. With Shen Metal ore, he might even have a chance to wound a powerful Shen.

"This is far too good of a luck…" Xin Ja muttered in happiness and he hides the rest of the items in his ring.

He then enters the bathroom and took a bath before going to bed.

The next day…

Xin Ja should be visiting the Ban residence where Master Ban is currently staying.

As he walks out of his room after preparing, he noticed Qian Yan also walking out of her room.

"Good morning!" Xin Ja greeted.

"Umm… Good morning!" she replied with a nod.

The two showed an awkward look as they walked down the stairs.

After coming out of the small hotel, Xin Ja noticed that Qian Yan is also walking in the same direction as he is. A slight smile appears on his face as he looks behind him.

"Umm… I'm going to the Ban residence…" Xin Ja immediately showed a smile on his face.

The expression of Qian Yan became a bit awkward as she too will be going to the Ban residence. She was invited by Ban Railong to visit his residence for a meal. Since he is her savior, she did not want to say no to the guy.

Plus, she could sense that the man is trustworthy, unlike those people she would usually meet in the capital or some places she would visit.

"I am going there too…" she replied feeling a bit embarrassed.

"Wait a minute… Did… did Young Master Ban invite you? Wow… This is awesome. Did he send a carriage to pick you up?" Xin Ja is now showing an excited expression.

When Qian Yan heard this, she showed an embarrassed smile. She did not know how to reply to his enthusiasm.

"No, he didn't… I… I wanted to go there by myself…" she replied awkwardly.

Xin Ja's mouth twitched a bit as the woman was really different from what he had seen in her roles in the movies.

She was far too headstrong and independent and did not want to rely on others. She is an independent woman.

"I think, Rou Chenchen is also like that, right?" Xin Ja thought as he chuckled while walking.

Sensing the chuckle from the guy, the expression of Qian Yan turned cold. How dare this guy laugh at her?

"Are you mocking me?" she suddenly asked.

Xin Ja was a bit taken aback, but then realized that she might have been mistaken on something. So he decided to tell her.

"No, I just recalled something…" he then showed a polite smile as he bowed.

Suddenly, Xin Ja waved his hand and an empty carriage slowly stopped beside them.

"Ban Manor please…" he said as he opened the door.

He gestured for Qian Yan to enter first. The young woman was a bit taken aback and looked at Xin Ja with caution and curiosity at the same time.

"Thank you…" she said as he enters the carriage.

Xin Ja nodded his head and also enters.

The travel was silent, as an awkward atmosphere envelops the two people inside the carriage.

"So why are you going to the Ban manor?" she suddenly asked.

"I was invited there to help with the treatment of Master Ban…" Xin Ja explained.

"Wait a minute… Master Ban… You mean the one in the news that Doctor Shin should be treating?" she suddenly asked with a hint of surprise on her face.

"Ah, yes…"

"Are you a Medical Master?" she asked with doubtful eyes.

"Somewhat…"

"Haha… Do I? Well, I'm just there to help…"

"By the way, I'm Xin Ja…" Xin Ja introduced.

"I'm Yan…" she just said.

The two talked for a while as the awkward atmosphere disappear and sometimes they would laugh as they talked more comfortably.

Xin Ja's heart is a bit elated as he was able to talk to his idol. It was truly a nice experience.

He suddenly became excited and almost wanted to tell such a thing to Rou Chenchen, but he held himself back as he decided to tell it to her later.

This is because… he knew that Rou Chenchen also likes Qian Yan and her movies.

Soon, the carriage arrives near the entrance of the area where the manor is located. In this place, public carriages are not permitted to enter, so… they could only get off from the outside gate of the compound.

When the two walked to the entrance, two men stopped them.

"Which manor do you belong to?" one of the men wearing a dark blue robe asked.

"We are visiting the Ban manor…" Xin Ja said.

When the guard heard this, his expression became serious.

"The reason for the visit?" the guard asked.

Xin Ja has already seen the changes in the guard's expression and quickly scanned the place with his absolute sense. He then showed a memo hanging on the wall inside the guardhouse.

A slight smile appears on his face then looks at Qian Yan.

"We are guests of Young master Ban Railong…" he said while tilting his head at Qian Yan who is standing by his side.

The guard seems a bit confused at first but when he saw the smile on Xin Ja's face, he seems to have caught up to what the young man means.

"Oh… Oh, I see… Yes, I think Young Master Ban is already expecting you." The guard replied while scratching his head.

The two then walked inside while Qian Yan showed a confused expression on her beautiful face.

"Hey, why did the guard look at me with that weird expression?" she asked while patting Xin Ja's shoulder.

"Well, they think that you are here to meet Young Master Ban in secret… So they let you inside…" Xin Ja explained.

"You… you mean he always meets those kinds of women?" she showed a hint of dejection.

Qian Yan has a high opinion of Ban Railong, so she did not expect him to do such things.

"Huh? What are you talking about? Women's guest in their manor is normal. It would be either their friends or acquaintance. The guards would only think of such things…" Xin Ja tried to pacify her mood.

But of course, he knew the meaning back then. But he could not just tell it to her, right? If he did, then it would sully the name of Ban Railong.

The two then arrive in front of the Ban manor and saw that a few carriages are parked outside. Xin Ja noticed a few armed guards standing outside while some are scattered on the grounds.

"It seems that they are truly against their father receiving an operation…" Xin Ja muttered.

"What do you mean?" Qian Yan asked in confusion.

"Well, let's just find Young Master Ban…" Xin Ja showed a faint smile.

When they arrive at the front gate, Xin Ja bowed at the armed guard who looks at him coldly.

"We are Young Master Ban's friends… I am Xin Ja and this Miss Yan…" Xin Ja introduced.

The guard looks at them suspiciously then gestured for the other guard.

"Call Young Master Ban…" he commanded.

The other soldier nodded and enters the manor.
