Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Biding Time
"Senior Brother Liu? He’s here looking for me!?"
Hearing the sound coming from outside the cave mansion, Lü Yang’s pupils suddenly contracted, and his face instantly turned extremely gloomy. He not only did not respond, but instead concealed his presence.
"...Junior Brother?"
The voice came again, and Lü Yang still did not respond. Although there was no evidence, he was already certain that there was a problem with the Manual of Primal Qi he was cultivating!
"I am too young, too simple. I didn’t even suspect it."
"Heaven Mending Peak has a close relationship with Yin-Yang Unity Hall, so the Peak’s core cultivation technique should be related to the harmony of Yin and Yang, yet the Manual of Primal Qi has nothing to do with it."
"I was deceived by him!"
"But why would he harm me? Although the Stain Sect is demonic, there are still sect rules, which strictly prohibit private fights between official disciples. And once discovered..."
Thinking of this, Lü Yang suddenly slapped his forehead.
"How could I have fallen into the verbal trap?"
"Once discovered, once discovered... If not discovered, does it not count as a private fight?"
As Lü Yang thought about it, his expression grew darker. He had fallen for the false image Liu had set up. Liu had fulfilled his duties as Lü Yang’s guiding disciple. He seemed diligent and sincere, never holding anything back from him. Especially in the Treasure Refining Hall — he even instructed the steward there to provide Lü Yang with the very best.
However, All his previous kindness had merely been a setup to make Lü Yang lower his guard and take the Manual.
Thinking back now, he might’ve even planned to keep everything for himself. After all, once I was dead, all rewards I’d earned would naturally fall into his hands... No wonder he insisted on getting me the best ones.
Bastard!
Just then, the sound came again from outside the mansion.
The next second, a "click" sound was heard. The ward of the mansion suddenly exploded, and the door was forcibly torn apart by a beam of sword light!
The next moment, Liu Xin strolled in with his robes fluttering.
A faint smile of fulfillment crossed his face as he saw Lü. He nodded in satisfaction: "Junior Brother is indeed talented...."
BOOM!
Before Liu Xin could finish his words, Lü Yang exploded into a flood of Qi and wrapped around the Bone Sword, slashing towards Liu Xin with unstoppable momentum in a sharp sword light.
However, in the next second, the sword light abruptly halted.
"...A futile struggle."
Liu Xin didn’t dodge nor escape, but simply made a Daoist hand seal; and Lü instantly lost control of his own body, as if becoming someone else’s puppet!
"This Manual of Primal Qi is truly a good thing
