Chapter 91: Reversing the Situation
When they were about to enter the Yufu Mountain, Li Yuanqing left the Little Ba Serpent and Hu Jiujiu behind. He went up the mountain alone. He did not know if the legendary invincible Patriarch of the Yufu Mountain was dead or alive.
Therefore, when Li Yuanqing went up the mountain, he used the Shadowless Art together with the Sand Escape Technique. Not only was his speed fast, but the disciples on the Yufu Mountain could not sense his arrival. At most, they felt like a gust of wind had blown past them. The speed of the wind was a little fast.
Li Yuanqing did not stop at the foot of the Yufu Mountain. His mind was filled with the information that Zhaoyang had prepared for him. According to the information she gave, the Sect Master of the Yufu Mountain was about fourth or fifth-grade of Grotto-Heaven Realm.
Li Zhengye’s Martial Uncle Ma should be at the fourth-grade Grotto-Heaven Realm. There was another fourth-grade and two third-grade experts on the Yufu Mountain.
There were only twenty to thirty first-grade Grotto-Heaven Realm disciples left, as well as hundreds of eighth-grade and ninth-grade martial artists.
The Yufu Mountain should have sent many disciples to the catacombs with the appearance of the catacombs in the Yufu Kingdom, as well as the experts guarding the new Emperor in the palace.
There was only one fifth-grade expert on the Yufu Mountain now and it should be the Sect Master. There’s still a fourth-grade expert and two third-grade experts. Li Yuanqing could not be bothered to pay attention to the remaining first and second-grade disciples.
He had come this time to resolve the matter of the Northern Kingdom. He could make the Sect Master of the Yufu Mountain lower his head and even suffer some losses. And made him swear not to interfere in the feud between the Northern Kingdom and the Yufu Kingdom.
It was not difficult to deal with the Sect Master of the Yufu Mountain, but they still had an Old Ancestor. Once the Old Ancestor of the Yufu Mountain was still alive, the day he came out of seclusion would very likely be the day the Northern Kingdom was destroyed.
Moreover, who knew when the Old Ancestor of the Yufu Mountain would come out of seclusion? If he was lucky and reached the Spirit Transformation realm before the Old Ancestor came out of seclusion, the crisis of the Northern Kingdom would be completely resolved.
At present, apart from that Old Ancestor of Yufu Mountain, no one on Yufu Mountain was Li Yuanqing’s match.
Therefore, he calculated in his heart for a long time and finally made up his mind. He would use peaceful means before resorting to force. After all, the Yufu Mountain only had a grudge with him because of Li Zhengye, but Li Zhengye was already dead. If the Yufu Mountain was willing to give up on interfering in the feud between the two countries, then everything would be fine.
When Li Yuanqing found the Sect Master of the Yufu Mountain, he happened to meet the disciples of the Yufu Mountain discussing matters. This scene reminded him of the seven great clans, but Li Yuanqing did not move.
This was because he heard someone say that not far from the Yufu Mountain, there was actually a Ba Serpent. Moreover, the Ba Serpent’s realm was quite high. Such a vicious beast could be captured to be the divine beast guarding the mountain.
Ba-Serpent? Divine Beast to guard the mountain? Haha, he probably didn’t tell the Little Ba Serpent what to do. This fellow was huge, so it should have been discovered by this disciple of the Yufu Mountain.
“Sect Master, that Ba Serpent’s realm is probably almost at the fourth-grade Grotto-Heaven Realm. This is extremely rare. Being discovered by our disciples is simply a gift from the heavens…”
“However, this vicious beast is too powerful. Sect Master, Martial Uncle Ma, and the others have to take action. It’s just that the timing isn’t right. After all, the matter of the Northern Kingdom has yet to be resolved. What if…”
In the meeting hall, the disciples of the Yufu Mountain all had their own opinions. Fourth-grade vicious beasts were very powerful, even if the Sect Master and the others attacked together. There was also a certain degree of danger. If anyone was injured or the experts of the Northern Kingdom took advantage of the situation, it would be bad.
However, if they did not capture such a vicious beast, the people on the Yufu Mountain would probably not be able to eat or sleep in peace. After all, fourth-grade vicious beasts were too rare.
Li Yuanqing stood silently in the meeting hall and listened to these people. He felt a little pity for them. He was already standing beside them, yet none of them could sense him. And they wanted to scheme against his Little Ba-Serpent?
Idiots! Stupid and greedy idiots.
“Ahem ahem! This vicious beast has an owner. If you want to s.n.a.t.c.h its beast, shouldn’t you ask its owner if he agrees? So this is how the people of the Yufu Mountain are?” Li Yuanqing finally could not help but cough twice. He directly revealed himself in front of everyone and shook his head as he spoke. He looked at these people with disdain and pity.
Li Yuanqing’s sudden appearance shocked everyone in the meeting hall. Someone couldn’t help but retreat, looking at Li Yuanqing with fear.
Who was this person? He had actually silently reached the most important place on the Yufu Mountain? Wouldn’t it be easy for such a person to kill them?
When someone thought of this question, they felt a chill on their necks and their hearts were filled with panic. Since when was the Yufu Mountain like the gate of a vegetable garden? Did others get to enter and leave as they pleased? This was an immortal mountain, the holy land of the Yufu Kingdom!
“Who are you? Why have you come to my Yufu Mountain?” The Sect Master of the Yufu Mountain was shocked. He had never been so panicked before. This was the first time he had encountered such a thing after being the Sect Master for decades. If this was an enemy, the Yufu Mountain would be finished.
No, the Yufu Mountain still had an Old Ancestor, an invincible Old Ancestor in the Grotto-Heaven Realm. At the thought of this, he calmed down a little and shouted these words at Li Yuanqing. Unfortunately, he lost all his confidence when he said these words because he was fl.u.s.tered. There was no choice because the Sect Master of the Yufu Mountain realized that he could not see through Li Yuanqing’s realm at all.
“Why? Can’t I come to the Yufu Mountain?” Li Yuanqing swept his gaze across the panicked disciples of the entire meeting hall and suddenly laughed. He had taken these people too seriously. In the entire Yufu Mountain, other than the Old Ancestor who was in seclusion, there was no one who he was afraid of.
Hahaha, how boring!
Faced with Li Yuanqing’s rhetorical question, and looking at his carefree expression and unfathomable strength, the Sect Master of Yufu Mountain gritted his teeth and suddenly cupped his hands respectfully at Li Yuanqing. “Senior, are you here to look for my Old Ancestor? Old Ancestor is currently in seclusion. If there’s anything, you can tell me…”
Li Yuanqing could not help but laugh at the way the Sect Master of the Yufu Mountain addressed him as Senior and the polite words and fawning gaze. So this Sect Master of the Yufu Mountain was a paper tiger who was afraid of force? He was so famous for nothing. He thought this Sect Master was some kind of tough character? Why was he so timid? Why did it feel like when Father was still alive?
His father had been so tolerant back then because the founding Martial Saint had pa.s.sed away. Could it be that the Sect Master of the Yufu Mountain was also like this because of their Old Ancestor?
At the thought of this, Li Yuanqing did not stand on ceremony and said casually. “I don’t think you should interfere in the feud between the Yufu Kingdom and the Northern Kingdom. If you insist on interfering, you can consider it…”
Since Li Yuanqing had his doubts, he planned to test him.
