Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Si Wuya quickly recovered from his surprise and rushed over to catch Qin Naihe. Then, he hurriedly tapped Qin Nai’s acupoints to seal Qin Naihe’s Eight Extraordinary Meridians and to suppress the leaking Primal Qi. The loss of this Birth Chart was serious so he could not be careless. The more Primal Qi Qin Naihe retained, the easier it would be for him to recover his cultivation in the future. There were cases where even if one could restore one’s Birth Chart, one’s cultivation base still could not return to its peak.
The others watched in surprise as well.
When the Primal Qi stopped leaking and Qin Naihe was on the ground, Qin De finally regained his senses. However, he was speechless; he did not know what to say at this moment. He did not know what to do.
Si Wuya recalled his master’s appearance and the words ‘Yannan’s Blessed Land’ before he smiled and asked, “Elder Qin, do you plan to start a ma.s.sacre in the Sky Martial Academy?”
Qin De felt extremely awkward and embarra.s.sed. He forced a smile on his face to cover his embarra.s.sment and said, “As it turns out, you’re Pavilion Master Lu’s disciple.”
Everyone shook their heads disapprovingly, scoffing inwardly. How many times did Si Wuya mention the Evil Sky Pavilion earlier, but Qin De did not seem to care? Why did he turn so cowardly now?
“Venerable Qin and Pavilion Master Lu can be considered friends. What happened today is a misunderstanding.”
“A misunderstanding?” Si Wuya looked to the sides for a moment, thinking of how he should proceed.
Initially, Si Wuya a.s.sumed his master would directly intimidate Qin De so that Qin De would not dare to act rashly. With that, at the very least, Qin Naihe’s life would be saved. He did not expect Qin De’s att.i.tude would make a 180-degree change.
Si Wuya recalled Qin De’s expression when Qin De received the talismanic message. He was certain his master must have done something to be able to suppress Qin De to this extent. Nevertheless, he understood that he could not push Qin De too much despite Qin De’s att.i.tude change.
“Since it’s a misunderstanding, then it’ll be easy for us to resolve this matter. What does Elder Qin plan to do with Qin Naihe?” Si Wuya asked.
The more polite and calm Si Wuya was, the uneasier Qin De felt. It felt like Si Wuya was silently setting him up to fall into a trap. He thought to himself that he must not be fooled into complacency by Si Wuya’s gentleness. He had to take the initiative to show that he was truly apologetic. Hence, he quickly said, “My friend, please don’t take offense for my earlier actions. It’s my fault for not handling today’s matters properly. I apologize to everyone.”
Then, Qin De added, “I’ve already punished Qin Naiher slightly earlier. Since he has already joined the Evil Sky Pavilion, I won’t pursue this anymore for Pavilion Master Lu’s sake. We should let Venerable Master Qin and Pavilion Master Lu settle this matter.”
When Qin De saw Si Wuya’s lack of reply, he added, “What do you think, my friend?”
Si Wuya smiled. “I’ll do as Elder Qin suggested.”
“That’s great.” Qin De cupped his fists together at everyone and bowed. “Everyone, I hope we’ll meet again.”
Buzz!
Then, a lotus bloomed as a 165-foot avatar towered in the sky of the Sky Martial Academy.
Due to the imbalance, the flying beasts in the vicinity were frightened out of their wits by the energy resonance.
Buzz!
In just a moment, Qin De and his huge avatar vanished from sight.
At this time, Xia Changqiu, the Monastery Master of the Thousand Willow Monastery, walked out from the crowd and looked at the empty sky. He scoffed. “You still want to display your power before you leave! You really don’t know what’s good for you!”
Then, Xia Changqiu moved to Wuwu’s side and asked, “Are you okay?”
“I’m fine.” Wuwu nodded before she rushed to Qin Naihe’s side and said, “I’ll continue to heal you.”
Then, Wuwu began to cast all kinds of healing techniques on Qin Naihe.
After a moment, Si Wuya waved his hand and said, “Bring him back to rest.”
Qin Naihe sighed. “It’s best I leave the Sky Martial Academy and find a place to hide for a while.”
“Why should you hide?” Xia Changqiu asked.
Qin Naihe said, “Pavilion Master Lu killed Qin Moshang. How can Venerable Master Qin let this matter go?”
Until now, both parties had not openly discussed this matter. This was, in fact, the source of Qin Naihe’s worries.
Xia Changqiu laughed as he placed his hands on his back and said, “You’re thinking too much!”
“Huh?” Qin Naihe was confused.
“If I were Venerable Master Qin, I would deal with my clan with a heavy hand for the sake of justice! Not only that, but I’d also severely punish those unruly subordinates,” Xia Changqiu said.
“…”
How could Xia Changqiu be unaware of Qin Naihe’s thoughts? He asked, “Do you think I’m joking?”
Qin Naihe sighed before he launched into another coughing fit. He really was not in the mood to think about this matter, especially when he had just lost one Birth Chart. Moreover, he would feel miserable as long as this matter was not resolved.
…
Meanwhile, after Qin De left the Sky Martial Academy, he did not return to the green lotus domain immediately. Instead, he found a remote spot in the forest before he lit a talisman.
A circle of light appeared on the ground before a projection appeared.
“Greetings, First Elder!” The person in the projection bowed.
“How accurate is the message you sent earlier?” Qin De asked.
“There’s no mistake. It’s 100% accurate. How could I joke with something that has to do with Venerable Masters? Tuoba Sicheng died in Yu Zhong. Then, the people from the Tuoba clan went to the Ye clan to seek justice.”
Qin De frowned. “Venerable Master died as well?”
“Not only did he die, but he was killed by the four elders in Yannan.”
“What? The four elders killed Venerable Master Ye?” Qin De’s eyes widened in shock. After a moment of silence, he asked, “Has Venerable Master Qin left for Yannan?”
“Yes. He left early in the morning.”
“What’s Venerable Master Qin going to do about the matter between the Tuoba clan and Yannan?” Qin De asked, In his opinion, it was best to not meddle and let the two sides fight it out.
“I’m not sure.”
Qin De sighed. “You should’ve sent the message earlier…”
“Uh… I apologize…”
If Qin De had received that message 15 minutes earlier than he did, he would not have made a move against Qin Naihe at all. Since the information in the message was true, did it not mean he had offended the Evil Sky Pavilion.
Qin De could not help but sigh again when he thought about this.
…
After landing on Yannan’s cloud platform, Lu Zhou and the others disembarked from the flying chariot.
As they pa.s.sed the archway, a disciple quickly flew over and called out, “Young Master Zhao Yu!”
Zhao Yu hurriedly said, “Pavilion Master Lu has arrived. Why didn’t the four elders come to welcome him?”
Upon hearing this, the disciple glanced at Lu Zhou and the others nervously. Then, he said, “The four elders can’t get away at this moment. The people from the Tuoba clan are here.”
“Tuoba clan?” Zhao Yu asked.
Yan Zhenluo smiled. “Tuoba Sicheng and Ye Zheng were in cahoots. Now that Tuoba Sicheng died, it’s not surprising that his clansmen came to look for trouble with Ye Zheng’s people. One really can’t avoid running into one’s enemies in this small world.”
After a moment, Zhao Yu gestured to Lu Zhou and said, “This way, old sir.”
Lu Zhou’s movements were as light as a swallow as he flew to the top of Yannan Mountain.
The others followed closely behind Lu Zhou.
Clouds and mist swirled around the mountains in Yannan. It was really beautiful scenery.
…
A green-clad elder said, “Elder Ye, I must see Venerable Master Ye if he’s alive. If he’s dead, I want to see his corpse. Venerable Master was helping Yannan before this. No matter what, you have to give us an explanation.”
Ye Wei and the other three elders stood in a row across from the green-clad elder. The disciples of Yannan stood behind them.
Ye Wei said in return, “Venerable Master Tuoba’s strength was inferior to the other party. How can you blame Yannan for his death?”
“Are you going to persist in being so obstinate? Do you think there’s nothing we can do without Venerable Master Tuoba?”
The fact was the Tuoba clan did not really believe Tuoba Sicheng had died despite the fact that his life stone had shattered.
At this moment, the core members of the Tuoba clan stood behind the green-clad elder. They were all handsome men and beautiful women with eyes burning with pa.s.sion; they were young and filled with vigor.
On the contrary, the row of older people standing in front of them was calm. Their words and expressions were all br.i.m.m.i.n.g with hostility.
Ye Wei asked, “Then what do you want?”
“You killed Venerable Master Ye who was your superior. Even if we don’t make things difficult for you, you can forget about standing tall in the cultivation world in the future after committing such a treasonous act,” the green-clad elder said, “I’ve already invited Venerable Master Qin here to uphold justice.”
“Venerable Master Qin?” Ye Wei frowned.
Everyone in Yannan, elders and disciples alike, knew Ye Zheng and Qin Renyue had never had a good relations.h.i.+p. They would discuss the Dao on Clear Sky Mountain and spar. Although they called it sparring, they definitely did not hold their punches.
In fact, the relations.h.i.+ps between the four Venerable Masters were very complicated. However, the conflict between Ye Zheng and Qin Renyue was the most obvious.
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
One after another, figures flew over.
“Pavilion Master Lu from the Evil Sky Pavilion has arrived!”
