Chapter 774: First Stop After Entering Supreme Dao
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qin Wushuang remembered the days he spent at the Stargaze Palace in the past. Although he only stayed for less than three years at the Stargaze Palace, to him, it was a period of growth and coming of maturity. It was also a period of time where he experienced the magical aspects this world had to offer.
Qin Wushuang cared about his experiences at the Stargaze Palace. Deep in his heart, the Stargaze Palace would always have a place and this had not come from nothing.
From being a hardworking martial artist when he first entered the sect, to standing out at the year-end compet.i.tion, to earning no discord, no concord with all his senior brothers, going through a life or death battle with the Archaic Mysterious Sect at the Green Jade Mountain, to the Three Kingdom invitation compet.i.tion, until the invasion of the Nine Raven Empire…
It could be said that Qin Wushuang went through a lot while at the Stargaze Palace.
Naturally, Qin Wushuang knew what Wei Yi and Zhao Muzhi meant to the Stargaze Palace.
As Mi Jia looked at Qin Wushuang’s terrified expression, she gave a quiet cough as she asked, “Do you plan to head back to the Xuan Yuan Mound? Or…”
Qin Wushuang thought, “If I go back now, I am afraid my strength is not enough to compete against Heavenly Emperor Xin Tianwen. The Head Chief used his divine soul to seal the Nirvana Heavenly Plow and suffered severe injuries. He could deal with Xin Tianwen. The most important part was that the att.i.tude of that Xuan Yuan totem clan is not very explicit. In the end, just how much will the Xuan Yuan totem clan interfere? It would be useless to return to the Xuan Yuan Mound now…”
“Certainly the person that took Wei Yi and Zhao Muzhi are from the Heavenly Emperor Gate. Naturally, they captured them to target me. If I do not appear, perhaps those two will suffer slightly, but they would definitely not lose their lives. Or else, they would have nothing to blackmail me with. Thus… I have some leeway. I have only been in the Endless Eastern Sea for less than a year and there are a dozen years until the Heavenly Emperor election. If I go back now, not only will I not be able to save those two, they might take advantage of me.”
Qin Wushuang calculated it inwardly for he knew that to him, the situation was utterly grim.
Certainly he would fail if he were to go back. Not to mention his inability to save his people, he might ruin the entire situation.
If he were to keep training, he would have the opportunity to pull back his disadvantages. However, he needed to stay focused and patient.
He raised his head and Qin Wushuang revealed a firm and persistent look. “Didn’t you say that the Rus.h.i.+ng Current Valley is clear? Let’s go to the Rus.h.i.+ng Current Valley!”
Mi Jia was surprised. “Really?”
“What? Is there a problem?” Qin Wushuang asked back.
Mi Jia spread out her hand. “If you were to leave now, I would not blame you for breaking faith and abandoning our quest. I’ve always heard that you are a man of loyalty and self-sacrifice. I do not wish to break the friends.h.i.+p you have with your colleagues.”
“Colleagues…” Qin Wushuang thought over this word with a grave expression. “Regardless, the Heavenly Emperor Gate will surely pay the price. With my current strength, if I cannot defeat the Heavenly Emperor Xin Tianwen, it’d be useless to head back to the Xuan Yuan Mound. If I did not have any other responsibilities, most likely I would have gone to do it even though I knew it might not work. However, now I carry a great crisis mission for the Qin Clan: it’d definitely not be a smart idea to strike the stone with an egg.”
Now, Mi Jia finally realized something. She looked at Qin Wushuang in a more complex manner.
“In this case, let’s go to the Rus.h.i.+ng Current Valley. However, it will not be easy to leave now.” Worry was concealed within Mi Jia’s brows. “Outside, there are many who eye us as prey.”
“Listen to my plan, you will leave first. Wait in the nearby area of the Rus.h.i.+ng Current Valley entrance keeping your ident.i.ty as a disciple of the Horned Dragon Clan, not many dare to offend you. Their main target, is me!”
“When I leave, are you not going to become the only target?” Mi Jia was still unwilling to do it.
“Don’t worry, just these people cannot keep me here!” Confidence shone from Qin Wushuang’s eyes.
This time, Mi Jia was not willful as she nodded. “Alright, I will listen to you. However, you must promise me, you must come out alive!”
“Come on, don’t be so melodramatic.” Qin Wushuang waved his hand as he could not stand her drama. “Wait there for me, perhaps I will be there when you get there.”
Matchless confidence filled Qin Wushuang’s calm and collected tone.
“Ok!”
Mi Jia changed her outfit slightly and started to leave. Qin Wushuang opened the Observant Finger Jade Plate and watched Mi Jia’s figure until she left the Rising Sun City.
In between her trips, indeed some abnormal movements appeared from that He Ziniu. In the end, he did not go to deal with Mi Jia. Clearly, this He Ziniu’s primary target was Qin Wushuang.
A sinister smile spilled out from the corner of Qin Wushuang’s mouth as he muttered to himself, “Indeed, the one with the Graceful Spiritual Bow can make an innocent man get into trouble on account of this cherished item. This Graceful Spiritual Bow has allowed my life to be filled with fantasy. Naturally, these conflicts will accompany it. Since I have this magical object, I must have the resolve to face all of it! He Ziniu…”
“Let’s decapitate you first! Even if bodies fill the path ahead of me, it will not stop me from stepping forward. Whoever stops me, they shall die!”
Fierce thoughts grew abruptly from his head. That burst of murderous presence brought by the Graceful Spiritual Bow became richer and overflowed even more violently.
The current Qin Wushuang was no longer the martial artist that would allow others to bully him. Because of the Graceful Spiritual Bow, even if he were to offend every martial artist, he would not hesitate and hold back.
“Whoever schemes against me, they must have the resolve to die!”
Thinking here, Qin Wushuang flapped his back. The Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings that evolved again after he broke into the Supreme Dao Stage emitted an enchanting purple cloud. Instantly, the entire sky was filled with wonder.
Currently, the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings had already evolved to the second last level, which was also the sixth evolution. Although it was not their final form yet, the purple cloud was already forming.
It was only one step away from the final form!
When he activated this purple cloud, indeed it showcased an imposing manner that could swallow the sky and reinforce the earth.
Qin Wushuang stood with his feet and his body transformed into a purple meteoric light to dash to the sky.
The speed of the mutated Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings after six evolutions was incomparable to it’s past speed.
Across the entire sky of the Rising Sun City, one could only see the overflowing and shocking purple air. With the blink of an eye, it dashed out of one’s sight.
“The purple cloud comes from the east!”
“Supreme Dao purple cloud!”
Instantly, the entire Rising Sun City emerged alarming cries. When they saw such a grand purple cloud, all of them let out surprised gasps.
“No, it’s that Qin Wushuang!”
“Yes, those wings, it must be him!”
“Darn it, we let him escape! Chase after him!”
Within the Rising Sun City, all parties and powerhouses who were keeping an eye on Qin Wushuang finally realized the light and realized that something was wrong. All of them shouted and chased after the billowing purple cloud.
With a determined look, Qin Wushuang observed the Observant Finger Jade Plate. His target was outside the Rising Sun City east gate, which was also the path he must pa.s.s to reach the Rus.h.i.+ng Current Valley.
Of course, there was also a tremendous amount of people from many different parties who were conspiring against Qin Wushuang. Before him was the greatest amount of ambushes he had seen.
Holding the Graceful Spiritual Bow in his hand, Qin Wushuang was seen with an awe-inspiring divine prestige. With his speed, most likely those people who set up ambushes for him could not even react in time.
Inside the eastern gate, He Ziniu was discussing something with Shu Ya of the Jackal Wolf Dragon Clan.
Being an elite warrior of the Jackal Wolf Dragon Clan, Shu Ya was equal with the Horned Dragon Clan as he said with an incredibly displeased tone, “Ziniu, didn’t you say that girl Mi Jia offended you? Why did you let her go? Our Non-Traditional Dragon Clans never see the True Nine Dragon Clans eye to eye. I would rather take that girl and humiliate her. It should also be good to have a show of strength with the Horned Dragon Clan.”
He Ziniu said with a bitter smile, “It’s easy to capture that girl, but that kid will be alarmed. It will be tougher to capture him again. The Graceful Spiritual Bow is much more important than that girl.”
“As long as we can catch that girl, how could we still be afraid that kid will not have his hands tied and be waiting to be captured?” Shu Ya countered.
“Brother Shu Ya, you only know one side of it and not the other part of the story. Although that girl is a companion to Qin Wushuang, she’s unrelated to him in any other way. Even if they heat up for adultery, it would be a short-lived improper relations.h.i.+p and they’d only play along for local conditions. Would that kid even risk his life for her?”
He Ziniu’s words also sounded reasonable and justified. Shu Ya said impatiently, “Even if your words make sense, if that kid does not come out at all, could it be we will just wait here?”
He Ziniu said again, “The Rising Sun City is not an ordinary place, it’s a place overseen by the Forefather Dragon Clan. How could you or I dare to stir trouble inside the city? Don’t worry, it’s impossible for that kid to stay inside there.”
Shu Ya gave a snort and just when he was about to say something, suddenly his brow twisted and he looked towards the direction of the Rising Sun City with a profound look. From afar, a large purple cloud was crossing the sky like a mad storm.
“What’s that?” Shu Ya’s heart squeezed and he became nervous.
He Ziniu fixed his gaze to see and said happily, “Everyone pay attention, it’s that kid, he’s planning to make it by force! Ha ha, he’s digging his own grave!”
Before he finished speaking his words, there came a piercing cry in the sky. Like the rumbling thunder, Qin Wushuang said, “Today, those who try to stop me, die!”
After he finished his words, holding the Graceful Spiritual Bow in hand, he hung three Shooting Sun Arrows onto the bow string. He activated his divine power and poured the power into the bow and arrows.
The purple cloud from around his entire body warped into one place with the golden light and was filled with an awe-inspiring divine prestige. The look of it would stop anyone in their tracks.
Suddenly, that golden light scuttled from the purple cloud into a trinity formation. A semicircular attack wave brewed from the bursting golden light as it spread out with rapid speed.
Instantly, the entire horizon was covered by this semicircular golden light. The dazzling powerful light was so bright that most could no longer see.
Inside the golden lights, three Shooting Sun Arrows danced like a divine dragon. In fact, they carried a powerful dragon breath aura while showing signs of his transforming dragon form.
Before this powerful attack wave, the first wave of martial artists instantly lost their breath!
“Not good, retreat!”
“Arrows, there are arrows, hurry and hide!”
In the midst of panicked cries, twenty or thirty figures scuttled in all directions in a state of panic. They would not dare to oppose this power as they scuttled away like frightened sparrows.
Qin Wushuang activated the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings and followed the shock wave without slowing down his speed. Again, he raised the Graceful Spiritual Bow from his hand. Three Shooting Sun Arrows still hung on top of it and were waiting to be shot, acc.u.mulating their strength for the next attack.
“Boom, boom!”
Bursts of torrent-das.h.i.+ng explosive sounds echoed through the air. The initial three Shooting Sun Arrows had already penetrated three martial artists that had yet to flee in time. The warriors were shattered into pieces.
Letting out a loud roar, Qin Wushuang had already made it within a thirty mile radius of He Ziniu!
