Chapter 694: Chapter 378: Presenting the Yao Tai Sect! (Part 2)

Just about to watch the excitement at the Yao Tai Sect, her expression suddenly changed.

The next moment, without thinking, her long sword swiftly unsheathed.

She saw an invisible and straightforward palm force, heading straight towards Wenren Qianluo.

She immediately reversed her sword and thrust forward, instantly breaking that invisible palm force.

The long sword instantly hummed, the blade shivering.

It was evident that this illusory palm shadow held immense power.

One could hardly imagine what kind of severe damage Wenren Qianluo would suffer if this palm struck her current self.

"Chu Qing... you were right, someone wants to take advantage of the chaos to kill people... but how did you know?"

A moment ago, she could sense this palm, not because her inner strength was profound or her senses sharp.

It was because Chu Qing’s voice suddenly appeared in her mind.

Chu Qing candidly told her that someone wanted to take advantage of the chaos to kill Wenren Qianluo.

That’s why she drew her sword and turned around, discovering this palm force that no one could detect and breaking it with a single stroke.

But she still found Chu Qing’s ability to anticipate the enemy’s moves incredible.

Chu Qing merely smiled and, while slowly walking into the crowd, used the Celestial Sound Transmission to say to Wu Qianhuan:

"Do you still remember the death of the Lord of Qingwu City?"

"Of course, I remember..."

"Human life is paramount, even ordinary people, let alone a city lord?

"Leaving words after killing, it’s targeting me.

"They want to provoke the Yao Tai Sect to trouble me...

"But few have the motivation and the ability to do such things.

"And in my travels through the martial world, I only have two opponents... the Celestial Evil Cult and the Mirror of Sin!

"The Celestial Evil Cult attacked the mountain sneakily, and when they saw me, these two were even more surprised.

"The most important thing is, if they were behind this, they wouldn’t have attacked the mountain, hence reducing their leverage against me.

"So this matter could only be the work of the Mirror of Sin...

"And as for the assassins from the Mirror of Sin... who knows them better than I do?"

First, they framed and incited the Yao Tai Sect to act against him, while they themselves disguised among the Yao Tai Sect disciples, looking for an opportunity.

This plan had no issues; the only variable was, they didn’t anticipate the mountain-attack by the Celestial Evil Cult, which made them extremely passive.

Even so, they never gave up and were always waiting for an opportunity.

Under those circumstances, everyone focused on Ji Yexue speaking, and that was their opportunity.

With just a brief moment, the Mirror of Sin’s objective could have been achieved.

Wenren Qianluo should have died the moment Ji Yexue spoke.

Unfortunately, as an assassin born from the Mirror of Sin, Chu Qing understood them too well.

The opportunities they saw were also opportunities seen by Chu Qing.

Seize their opportunities!

Chu Qing’s hand already pressed on the shoulder of someone dressed in the Yao Tai Sect attire, chuckling lightly:

"Being afraid of death is not acceptable; when your fellow disciples go forward, how can you retreat?"

That person’s body immediately stiffened.

Then their shoulders jolted, and they broke free from Chu Qing’s grasp. Turning back, they pressed a palm against Chu Qing’s chest.

Chu Qing smiled slightly:

"One missed strike and you flee far?

"Unfortunately, in front of me, there is no escape for you."

The person’s face changed again, but it was too late to switch moves.

With a brute and cunning force rebounding at the heart gate, their body flew backward, spraying a mouthful of blood before it hit the ground.

At the moment they landed, he saw Chu Qing point from afar.

Followed by a buzzing sound in their head, everything went black.

Chu Qing’s heart stirred slightly, summoning the system to take a look.

Sure enough, he saw a new category added in the selectable treasure chests: [Hand Treasure Chest].

"Finally, something came in."

All these events unfolded in an instant. Just as Ji Yexue was about to speak, Chu Qing stood up.

About to ask questions, Chu Qing had already walked into the Yao Tai Sect disciples.

Not until the inner force rebounded and killed the opponent did Ji Yexue understand what had happened.

Yet the other Yao Tai Sect disciples, witnessing Chu Qing kill a ’Yao Tai Sect’ person, couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

Why did this person, who helped the Yao Tai Sect so greatly, suddenly start killing their own people?

Wu Qianhuan’s voice reached Chu Qing’s mind at this moment:

"Is this what you meant earlier at the foot of the mountain about being interesting?"

Chu Qing laughed:

"The Celestial Evil Cult attacks the mountain, the Mirror of Sin hides in the shadows, ready to launch a surprise attack at any time.

"Don’t you find that interesting?"

"Not at all!"

Wu Qianhuan shook her head decisively and asked:

"When did you learn such an advanced sound transmission technique?"

Chu Qing smacked his lips:

"I created it myself, named it Celestial Sound Transmission."

As he spoke, stretching out his hand, the assassins he had just taken down fell into his grasp.

Reaching out to search them, seeing if he could find anything.

But after a round, found nothing.

Chu Qing, slightly disappointed, returned to sit at the front of the Jade Universe Pavilion, as the chaos in the field had already ceased.

Those who wanted to break through couldn’t, those who wanted to flee couldn’t.

Eventually, all were subdued.

Seeing Chu Qing return, Ji Yexue finally resumed her yet-to-be-finished speech.

"You came to my Yao Tai Sect, it must be for something, right?"

Chu Qing nodded:

"I’m looking for someone."

"Who?"

"He Qianqiu."

Chu Qing cast a peculiar glance at the encircled group, it was clearly a Yao Tai Sect encirclement, but Su Ningzhen had blended in.

Earlier, when He Qianqiu was trying to break through, he was stopped not just by the Yao Tai Sect, but also beaten up by Su Ningzhen amidst the chaos.

Thanks to her, without Ji Yexue’s aid, Chu Qing had already figured it out... the one beaten most fiercely must be He Qianqiu.

"He Qianqiu..."

Ji Yexue turned to look into the crowd:

"Come out."

He Qianqiu raised his head, the areas around his eyes specially bruised, forming two dark circles.

Two streaks of nosebleed flowed downward, he wiped it, smearing his face with blood, looking utterly miserable.

Upon hearing Ji Yexue’s instruction, he still responded:

"Disciple is here..."

Ji Yexue nodded, said nothing to He Qianqiu, but addressed Chu Qing:

"I leave him to you."

"Thank you, Sect Leader Ji."

Chu Qing smiled.

"What else do you want?"

Ji Yexue inquired further.

Chu Qing shook his head:

"Next, it’s not about what I want... it’s about what Sect Leader Ji wants."

As he spoke, he lifted the thin man, tossing him to Ji Yexue:

"I leave him to Sect Leader Ji as well. If there’s nothing else, I bid farewell."

"Hold on!"

Before Chu Qing could stand up, Ji Yexue already called out to stop him.

Chu Qing turned to look at her, Ji Yexue’s expression was calm, merely spoke quietly:

"I want the Yao Tai Sect to be safe."

"The Heroic Invitation sent by the Celestial Sound Mansion, via flying pigeon letter or some similar method, should have already reached the Yao Tai Sect, correct?"

"... I do not know."

Ji Yexue immediately spoke again:

"Is there any letter or invitation sent from the Celestial Sound Mansion?"

A middle-aged man immediately stepped forward and answered:

"Reporting to Sect Leader, such affairs are managed by Elder He Wenzhang. We are not aware."

"Where is He Wenzhang?"

Upon hearing Ji Yexue’s order, someone promptly lifted He Wenzhang from a pit, and said:

"Elder He is currently unconscious."

"Then speak of it once he awakens."

After Ji Yexue finished, she looked at Chu Qing:

"Since it’s a Heroic Invitation, it must be to hold a hero gathering! My Yao Tai Sect has also been invited?"

"Indeed."

"This is not enough."

Ji Yexue shook her head:

"The opponent is too strong, I have no confidence." ree

Ji Yexue’s martial arts were superior, at least not below that of Han Qiujun of the Star Split Mansion who had reached the Nine Stars Linked Pearls Realm.

Yet today’s battle revealed the true strength of the opponents.

The Eight Great Battle Generals, only two of them already caused her defeat.

Not to mention that General...

Facing such an opponent, she indeed lacked confidence.

She lifted her eyes to Chu Qing, with a deep gaze, not as clear as Gentle’s, carrying an indescribable sense of age:

"I am willing to offer Yao Tai Sect, if only my Yao Tai Sect can perpetuate its knowledge and endure in the world!"
