Inside the carriage, Ye Chen was still consolidating his cultivation.
After practicing for a while, he felt that he was ready to break through to the late stage of Condensation Realm.
During this journey, Ye Chen spent most of his time practicing, occasionally chatting with Leng Meir, and Ling Shuangying would often join in.
All in all, the three of them get along pretty well.
"The Ice and Thunder Town is ahead. We will meet up with the Thunder God Nation team there."
Ling Shuangying suddenly spoke.
Leng Mei'er asked, "In other words, this vein will still be mined jointly by us and the Thunder God Nation?"
"It's natural."
Ling Shuangying nodded slightly. "We are allies with the Benlei Divine Kingdom. This mineral vein was discovered near the border of three countries, so we naturally have to share it with them. This way, we can better prevent the Blazing Sun Divine Kingdom from sending people to rob us."
Ye Chen on the side listened quietly to their casual chat. He didn't understand much, so he silently memorized their conversation in his heart.
The carriage drove for a while and then arrived directly at a small town.
Although it is a small town, it has quite a lot of people.
According to Leng Meir, because this town is close to the border between the two countries of Ice and Thunder, the two countries each account for almost half of the population. Some come here to form teams for adventure, some come here to barter, and some come here to have fun in the red-light district during their spare time.
Soon, the carriage stopped at the largest restaurant in the town.
The monks around looked at the luxurious unicorn carriage in front of them and knew that an important person had arrived, so they all stepped back and did not dare to step forward.
"Let's go, the team from the Thunder God Nation is waiting for us here."
Ling Shuangying was the first to step out of the carriage. He had an arrogant look on his face and didn't take the monks around him seriously at all.
As a direct descendant of the Ling clan, coming here is indeed like a young man from Kyoto going to the countryside, so naturally he is arrogant.
Ye Chen didn't say much, and followed Leng Meir out of the car and entered the restaurant.
The restaurant owner had already come forward to greet them personally, nodding and bowing as he led the way.
Anyone who could open a restaurant at the junction of two countries where there were all kinds of people came from all over the place must be a very versatile person. He naturally knew that these three young men were either rich or noble, so he did not dare to neglect them.
"We have an appointment. Please take us to Room 1."
Ling Shuangying spoke indifferently.
"Master Lei has already given instructions. Please come in."
The restaurant owner bent over and led Ye Chen and others into a private room on the top floor.
There were already three figures sitting in the box, one man and two women.
Seeing someone come in, the burly man sitting in the middle slowly stood up, grinned at Ling Shuangying, and said, "Brother Shuangying, long time no see."
Ye Chen saw that this man was over two meters tall, shirtless, revealing his bronzed muscular body.
And on the chest, there is a tattoo that looks like lightning.
He has thick eyebrows, big eyes, rough features, and short hair that sticks to his skin, giving people an extremely tough feeling.
"Brother Hao Cang, how are you?"
Ling Shuangying seemed to be very familiar with the other party and spoke in a loud voice as well.
Immediately afterwards, the two women sitting next to the strong man also stood up.
They were tall and slender, and they didn't seem much shorter than the burly man. Their height was at least 1.8 meters.
"Brother Shuangying, Sister Mei'er, hello."
The two women spoke at the same time.
Only then did Ye Chen notice that the two women were actually twin sisters.
The only difference is that they have lightning tattoos on their faces, one at the corner of their eyes and one between their eyebrows, so they are still easy to identify.
However, although they are twin sisters, compared with Chen Bing and Chen Xue, the two girls in front of them are much inferior in appearance.
"Qianjie, Qianshun, long time no see."
Leng Mei'er first greeted the twin sisters, then looked at the burly young man and said, "Brother Hao Cang seems to have grown stronger. It seems that his cultivation has improved a lot."
The burly young man raised his fist and clenched it, his upper body muscles twitching as he laughed heartily, "Of course I've already reached the Great Perfection of the Gathering Spirit Realm. As long as I place in the top ten in this Hundred Marquises Battle, advancement to the Divine Warrior Realm will be a piece of cake!"
"Has Brother Hao Cang confirmed his participation in this Hundred Marquis Battle?"
Leng Mei'er was slightly surprised, but quickly added, "Brother Hao Cang is the youngest son of Thunder King. It's almost certain that he'll be in the top ten of the Hundred Marquises Battle."
"Haha, I think so too."
The burly young man smiled confidently, then looked at Ye Chen who had been standing there silently, and asked, "I don't know this little brother. What's your name?"
After hearing what he said, the twin sisters also looked at Ye Chen.
Leng Meier smiled and said, "This is Ye Chen, General Funan of our Xuanbing Divine Kingdom. He is highly appreciated by the Empress and has been ordered to explore for mineral veins."
When the three heard this, they all showed surprise and doubt in their eyes.
"But is it General Ye Chen who single-handedly destroyed two cities of the Blazing Sun Divine Kingdom?"
"Exactly."
Leng Mei'er nodded slightly, then introduced Ye Chen: "This is Lei Haocang, the youngest son of Thunder King of the Thunder God Kingdom. Those two are Lei Qianjie and Lei Qianshun, the geniuses of Thunder King's lineage."
Ye Chen nodded to the three of them and greeted them briefly.
At this moment, Ling Shuangying snorted in displeasure and said, "Although Ye Chen is brave and good at fighting, I'm afraid he's not good enough for us at this level. If we encounter a powerful mineral guardian beast during this mission, we'll have to rely on the five of us."
Upon hearing this, Lei Haocang and the other two also realized that Ye Chen was only at the middle stage of the Condensation Realm.
At this time, Leng Mei'er said: "Don't underestimate General Ye Chen. Not long ago, Fan Wujin died at his hands."
"Fan Wujin, a branch of the Fan clan of the Blazing Sun Divine Nation?"
"It is said that his cultivation has also entered the level of minor perfection in the Spirit Gathering Divine Realm. The fact that General Ye Chen was able to kill him shows that he has considerable combat power."
The twin sisters exclaimed in praise.
"General Ye Chen certainly has some skills, otherwise he wouldn't be so highly regarded by the Empress. However, his combat power is probably slightly inferior to that of you and me, so you'd better not have too high expectations of him."
Ling Shuangying spoke lightly, her voice filled with indifference.
At this time, everyone also realized that Ling Shuangying was not very friendly to Ye Chen, but Lei Haocang and others still agreed with the former's evaluation.
No matter how strong Fan Wujin is, he is just a genius from a branch lineage. Compared with these genuine geniuses from the direct lineage, he is still a level lower.
Between the two, whether it is cultivation, skills, or magic weapons, they are almost completely crushed.
