They searched for a whole day without finding any traces.
Yang Ming looked at the sky. It had been raining heavily for seven consecutive days, leaving no trace on the ground at all.
“How are we supposed to find it?”
“And it’s a Mystic Gate Realm expert!”
“A Mystic Gate Realm expert hiding from a Foundation Establishment cultivator is simply impossible to discover.”
Another day passed, and Yang Ming still found nothing, just like the other brothers.
After searching for three more days, Yang Ming finally had no choice but to shout while running through the mountains.
“I am Shadow Guard Yang Ming of Li Bingwei, here to rescue the senior and head to Jiuhe City!”
He shouted for six days until the seventh day, when he passed a place he had passed five times before, and suddenly heard a faint sigh.
“Is it someone from Lord Wen?”
Yang Ming was overjoyed and rushed towards the source of the sound, only to see a Taoist covered in blood with both arms and one leg severed.
He was weak as a thread, with wounds buzzing with mosquitoes.
A dignified Mystic Gate Realm expert had fallen to such a state, indicating that he had experienced a fierce battle.
“Senior, have you returned from the Death Realm?”
The Taoist nodded with difficulty, “Quick, take me to Lord Wen. There have been major changes in the Death Realm.”
Yang Ming tied the Taoist to his back and quickly released a firework to signal the others that he had found the target.
Within a quarter of an hour of the firework, people arrived, but Yang Ming was not familiar with them.
These people wielded swords, dressed in black, their eyes filled with killing intent.
“With both arms and a leg severed, it must be him!”
“Kill him immediately and retreat!”
After saying this, over a dozen flying swords attacked Yang Ming, who immediately transformed into fog, flew over a cliff, and fled towards Qing Ran.
As long as I reach Qing Ran, I’ll be safe!
The men in black weren’t about to let him go so easily, stepping on treetops, leaping dozens of feet, and pursued Yang Ming.
After chasing several hundred feet, Yang Ming was once again surrounded.
Damn it, where are the other Shadow Guards?
In an instant, another thirteen Void Swords flew at him, blocking all his escape routes.
Just as Yang Ming was about to make a desperate attack, he suddenly saw a Taoist land in front of him, grabbing a Void Sword and knocking down the twelve flying swords one by one.
“Playing with swordsmanship in front of me, truly courting death.”
The leader of the black-clothed men obviously became anxious, “Who are you? How dare you block our way!”
The Taoist, elegant and poised, “I am Zhang Can!”
Hearing the name Zhang Can, Yang Ming immediately felt relieved.
General Wei, it’s actually General Wei!
On the other side, the black-clad men were in a panic, “It’s Zhang Can, retreat!”
“Retreat!”
Zhang Can’s eyes flashed with a cold light, “Da Yan’s lackeys, since you dare to come to our Nanli, you must be prepared to die!”
In an instant, the surrounding rocks and vegetation turned into swords and flew at the black-clad men.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, Zhang Can had slain all thirteen of them.
Zhang Can sheathed his sword, “Let’s go, I’ll accompany you to see Qing Ran.”
As they walked, Zhang Can asked, “You’ve probably heard of my name, Zhang Can. Can you tell me what major events happened in the Death Realm?”
The Mystic Gate Realm Taoist remained silent, and Zhang Can only smiled slightly.
“Never mind, I’ll take you to meet Lord Wei.”
Qing Ran didn’t seem too surprised by Zhang Can’s appearance, “Did you return from visiting family at Hidden Sword Mountain?”
Zhang Can said, “I was just passing by and saw you making a big fuss, so I stopped to take a look.”
Qing Ran smiled, “Thank you this time.”
“Quickly heal this senior’s injuries. I must personally escort the senior to Jiuhe City!”
Miles away.
Chen Qing and Ji Ru stood on the branch of a giant tree. In front of them, a great lake spanning hundreds of miles suddenly collapsed, causing mountains and rivers to collapse all around.
Chen Qing gently shook his head, “It seems your news about the King Grade River Gu was inaccurate.”
“There’s no King Grade River Gu here, only two spiritual item River Gu.”
Ji Ru, wearing a white veil and dressed in a simple skirt that outlined her graceful figure, stood on the treetop, her white robes fluttering like an immortal descended to the mortal realm.
Ji Ru didn’t care much, “It’s normal for records from ancient texts over three thousand years old to be inaccurate.”
“But aren’t you curious about what’s under my veil?”
Chen Qing turned his head, and at this moment, Ji Ru seemed a bit playful and cute.
Not knowing how to respond for a moment.
I tell you about the King Grade River Gu, and you ask if I’m curious about you?
At this moment, Ji Ru reached up to remove the veil from her face and handed it to Chen Qing, “Here, for you!”
After saying this, she leapt off the branch like a proud lark.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.
Heading in the direction of Da Yan, she called back, “I’m going back to Da Yan. See you in the Death Realm!”
After taking three steps, Ji Ru turned back, “You’re the senior’s follower, and so am I. We’ll meet sooner or later, nothing to be embarrassed about.”
“You, you’re just too cautious and calculating.”
“Relax occasionally, consider it a journey, nothing bad about that.”
“Don’t keep that gloomy face all the time, you look so miserable.”
After saying this, she disappeared into the dense forest.
Chen Qing took the veil, pondered for a moment, and stored it in his personal space.
Should there be urgent news, he could inform her in a dream.
Chen Qing ran in the opposite direction from where Ji Ru left. After flying hundreds of miles, he landed. Zuo Chuan quickly approached to report, “Lord Wei, there’s intelligence from the Death Realm!”
Chen Qing immediately turned serious, “Speak.”
Zuo Chuan said, “News from Qing Ran; he rescued a Mystic Gate Realm expert from Nanli who just came from the Death Realm.”
“The Taoist said there was important intelligence to report to Lord Wei.”
Chen Qing nodded slightly, “Okay, let’s go back to Jiuhe City!”
Seven days later.
At the guard palace in Jiuhe City.
After being dressed by Xuanping, Chen Qing adjusted his attire to ensure his presence, then walked towards the main hall.
Xuanping followed, and Chen Qing asked, “Has anything significant happened in my absence?”
Xuanping replied, “Is there anything more important than your secret meeting with the little fairy?”
Chen Qing frowned slightly, “Who told you this?”
Xuanping said, “Isn’t it that sister of yours?”
Chen Qing smiled wryly, “She’s a blessed woman, different from us.”
“We dwell in darkness, while she remains in the light.”
“In the future, if we acquire a Luck Gu, I’ll get one for you too.”
“To make you a blessed woman as well.”
Xuanping gave Chen Qing a playful shove, “Alright, I know she’s an ally.”
“Marrying you is the blessing of my life.”
“Who would have thought, the daughter of a little Great Witch from the Xuan Bird tribe, could one day wield power over the Jiuli.”
Chen Qing replied earnestly, “If I return victorious from the Death Realm, I will surely acquire a King Gu for you.”
Xuanping said, “Why say such things out of the blue?”
Chen Qing said, “I have a feeling that Ji Dang has already challenged me.”
Reaching the main hall, Chen Qing sat in his place of honor, with Xuanping sitting closely beside him.
Looking over, he saw Su Yi, Wei Qingchen, Zhang Can, and Qing Ran present.
“Let’s begin the meeting, bring up the Mystic Gate Realm expert first.”
Qing Ran quickly commanded, “Shen Yuanjie, bring him up!”
In a short moment, Shen Yuanjie brought up the Mystic Gate Realm Taoist, his limbs reattached.
The Taoist looked at Chen Qing, “Is Lord Wen here?”
Chen Qing nodded slightly, “What news do you have? Report quickly!”
The Taoist hesitated for a moment, “I am from the Jiguang Sect.”
After saying this, he stopped speaking further.
Upon hearing this, Chen Qing’s hand glowed with a golden Ghost Mask, which he took out and wore on his face, “Now, can you speak?”
The Taoist finally began, “Ji Dang secretly led eight hundred elite members of the Noble Family into the Death Realm half a year ago, and launched a sudden attack a month ago.”
“In a month, they captured thirteen of our docks at the Jiguang Sect.”
“Our sect suffered great losses, with over a thousand casualties!”
