Ti moved to the year 7102 in the Lichuan Calendar, September, and Yu Qingtan returned to the Tanxian Elegant Courtyard of the Wendao Sect. The Taoist Instrunt Hundred Beasts Mountain and the Myriad Beasts Blood Pool had already been nourished within Yu Qingtan's Dantian, and nearly half of the cultivation resources and Spiritual Beasts of the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm were within the space of the Hundred Beasts Mountain Taoist Instrunt.
Thousand Beasts Mountain was still within the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm, and the Demon Venerable Bai Chen had given Yu Qingtan a specially made Bai Chen Order; by infusing it with Spiritual Power, she could call for help from Demon Venerable Bai Chen or be transported into the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm.
Although Yu Qingtan had secretly left a Soul Marking Seal inside the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm to freely enter and exit with her Shadow Clone Divine Skills, this was not sothing she could conveniently disclose to Demon Venerable Bai Chen.
Yu Qingtan continued to seclude herself for training, using the Myriad Beasts Blood Pool for Body Refinent. Xiaotao also stayed behind to use the Myriad Beasts Blood Pool for cultivation. The Myriad Beasts Blood Pool was very large, and Yu Qingtan made herself a small compartnt. With cultivation in the Myriad Beasts Blood Pool, Yu Qingtan's Body Refinent cultivation level surged forward dramatically, and she estimated it could keep pace with her Spiritual Energy Cultivation.
At the ti Yu Qingtan left the Myriad Beasts Secret Realm, in the Hundred Beasts Sect of the Southern Region, the Young Sect Master Zhu Yan's face suddenly turned pale with shock. She found that the Bai Chen Order inside her Storage Ring inexplicably shattered.
Not long ago, news had arrived within the sect that the Soul Lamp of Elder Lan Shan, one of her protectors, suddenly extinguished. She was extrely angry and also very unsettled.
Lan Shan had been appointed by her to stay in the Southeast Region to plot against another female cultivator who had obtained a Bai Chen Order. His sudden demise indicated that the mission had encountered an accident.
Just as she had broken through to the Late Stage of the Golden Core and needed to consolidate her Cultivation Level within the sect, she dispatched another one of her protectors, Sike True Lord Ma Sike to the Southeast Region to investigate the true cause of Lan Shan's demise. However, before Sike True Lord could return, her own Bai Chen Order, had shattered.
Zhu Yan hurriedly sought out her master, the Family Head of the Hundred Beasts Sect, to discuss the matter. Ultimately, the Family Head of the Hundred Beasts Sect assigned an Elder at the Nascent Soul Late Stage, Heavenly Gang True Lord Yuan Tiangang, to accompany Zhu Yan for another trip into the Southeast Region.
The Cross-Domain Transmission Array charged a fee of ten thousand Top-Grade Spirit Stones per individual, and one could not hide inside spatial equipnt. Due to the high cost, one often needed to wait a while to gather ten people before activating the transmission.
...
In the Extre Path Demon Sect, on the Weapon Peak, Yu Qingtan, disguised as "Xu Kexin," ca out of seclusion, submitted her task of weapon refining, and then went to visit her master, True Lord Yanhe. Since True Lord Yanhe was not around, Yu Qingtan decided to visit Real Master Xi Yue, Real Master Bao Qiang, and other senior brothers, to gather so recent intelligence.
"The crusade against the Demon Race just ended, but the atmosphere in the sect is still tense, as if there is so big movent underway, possibly related to the Young Sect Master's demise. However, the specifics of that movent remain unknown." This is the information Yu Qingtan had received.
After being busy, Yu Qingtan returned to her cave dwelling, prepared to continue her secluded cultivation. At this mont, soone happened to co looking for her. The visitor was Xu Kexin's clan uncle, Xu Jiaqin, the current person in charge of the Xu family's daily affairs.
"Uncle Qin, what brings you here?" the disguised "Xu Kexin" inquired with curiosity, as she, the Family Head of the Xu family, would visit the Xu family once every three months and did not allow Xu family mbers to seek her out casually, after all, she needed to study the art of weapon refining diligently for the "revival" of the Xu family.
"Kexin, you must take a stand for Zhigao," Xu Jiaqin said with a grave expression and a tremor in his voice, "Kexin, Zhigao's son, Dayong... he's caused a grave disaster."
"Dayong? What happened to him?" the disguised "Xu Kexin" showed a puzzled look and asked. She knew that Xu Zhigao was Xu Jiaqin's son, of diocre talent, barely reaching the Foundation Establishnt Stage with the help of resources.
Xu Zhigao had a great lust for won and was addicted to procreation, fathering more than twenty children, but Xu Dayong was the only one with a True Spiritual Root and capable of Qi Cultivation, hence he was extrely favored. Xu Dayong had just turned twelve this year and was still at the first layer of Qi Cultivation.
Xu Jiaqin took a deep breath and said carefully, "He… he killed soone, a girl who was a year younger than him." Xu Jiaqin appeared sowhat uneasy because ever since "Xu Kexin" had beco the Family Head, she had abolished so of the clan's illicit businesses and had punished many clansn with serious cris.
Although so clan mbers couldn't understand her actions, "Xu Kexin" displayed the ability to suppress the entire clan, being a Third Stage Artifact Refiner with a True Lord as her master, the Xu family had no choice but to obey her arrangents.
"Why did he kill, and how did he kill her?" As expected, "Xu Kexin's" tone was very cold as she stared at Xu Jiaqin and asked.
"Lost control after drinking, then he buried her in a pit! Originally we compensated with a great amount of Spirit Stones and had even obtained forgiveness from her sect, but the Jade Foot Witch still captured Dayong. Zhigao went to see his acquaintance and ended up with broken legs thrown out."
The "Xu Kexin" impersonated by Yu Qingtan beca even colder as she listened. The Jade Foot Witch, Bai Junjun, was also considered an "acquaintance," and Yu Qingtan knew she was a mber of the Enforcent Hall of the Extre Path Demon Sect, reputed to be ruthless and fair, with no low-ranking disciple able to escape her punishnt for violating the sect's laws.
Though the Extre Path Demon Sect was a demonic sect, it also had its own set of rules and order, albeit with much lower standards.
"Uncle Qin, the trouble that Dayong has caused this ti is truly difficult to settle," "Xu Kexin" said gravely, "since the Jade Foot Witch has gotten involved, this is not sothing we can easily conclude."
Xu Jiaqin said anxiously, "Kexin, I know you have a way, you must save Dayong! He is the only child of Zhigao with a True Spiritual Root, and moreover, he's still a child, he cannot co to harm!"
"Xu Kexin" remained expressionless and said, "Uncle Qin, I will do my best to rescue Dayong, but you need to tell
more details."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jiaqin quickly recounted the incident to Yu Qingtan. It turned out that the girl who was killed was a disciple from a nearby small sect who happened to run into Xu Dayong while on a visit to the Extre Path Demon Sect.
Xu Dayong, brazen and impudent, coerced the girl to dine and drink with him using his status and then, in a drunken state, killed the girl and buried her body. When the girl's sect discovered what had happened, they reported it to the Enforcent Hall. The matter seed to have been settled, but Bai Junjun, who had just returned to the sect, decided to get involved.
After hearing the full story, "Xu Kexin" had already made so calculations. "Uncle Qin, you go back first, I'll find a way," "Xu Kexin" reassured him, "but you must be ntally prepared, this matter will likely not be easy to resolve."
Although Xu Jiaqin was anxious, he also knew that at this ti he could only rely on the Family Head. He bowed deeply and said, "Kexin, I entrust this to you, on behalf of Zhigao and Dayong, we are trendously grateful!"
Yu Qingtan nodded, watching Xu Jiaqin leave before she went to see Bai Junjun. Not long after she returned, Xu Jiaqin received a ssage-Transmitting Flying Sword from "Xu Kexin."
"When Xu Zhigao ca to her, Bai Junjun had already executed Xu Dayong on the spot, sorry I was too late."
Of course, this was a lie from Yu Qingtan, for it was only after Yu Qingtan had gone to see Bai Junjun that Xu Dayong was executed in accordance with the law.
