Chapter 92: Chapter 90: Yunling Sect
Elder Luo’s last words left Li Changqing sitting in the tea stall, stunned for a long ti.
If soone told him that he would encounter a bloodshed disaster in the next two days, Li Changqing would just dismiss it as nonsense. How could there be so many disasters happening in one day?
A re hangnail would be considered a bloodshed disaster to them.
He would just laugh it off.
And wouldn’t think more about the matter.
But when Elder Luo said that Li Hengsheng would encounter a bloodshed disaster in the next two days, Li Changqing couldn’t take it anymore.
Could there really be so danger?
Li Changqing felt a bit anxious; in such matters, it’s better to believe in it than not to.
If danger really arises, what should be done?
"Maybe I should go take a look." Li Changqing pondered. If he didn’t, he would never be at ease.
But Li Changqing knew that now was definitely not a good ti to et his son.
The likelihood of exposure was very high.
Li Hengsheng had already suspected him before. If they t, they might not even exchange ten words before he would fall into the boy’s trap.
Who could tell which of this boy’s words were true and which were probes?
For the first ti, Li Changqing found this brat not at all adorable.
"Ah Fei, let’s go to the Mountain Ancient Land." Li Changqing said to Ah Fei at his feet, deciding to make the trip. He would sneak in without letting Li Hengsheng find out. As long as he confird there was no danger, he could return at ease.
"Awoo." Ah Fei yawned, lazily getting up.
Li Changqing left the city with Ah Fei at once.
After leaving the city, Ah Fei’s form enlarged, transforming into a Golden Silk Linlang Beast with giant wings spread; it now looked like a king.
But in Li Changqing’s eyes, the fearso Golden Silk Linlang Beast was nothing but a golden retriever with wings.
Riding on Ah Fei, the man and the beast took to the sky.
Li Changqing steadied his emotions, hoping that Li Hengsheng was fine.
They flew for two whole hours.
Li Changqing still didn’t see any trace of the Mountain Ancient Land.
"Ah Fei, are you sure this is the right way?" Li Changqing asked in doubt.
"Awoo?" Ah Fei looked at Li Changqing innocently, as if to say, how would I know, I haven’t been to the Mountain Ancient Land either.
"I haven’t been there either." Li Changqing sighed, "Then why on earth are you flying around randomly?"
Just as he was thinking, Li Changqing suddenly noticed smoke rising in the distance. He quickly commanded Ah Fei to fly in that direction.
Upon getting closer, Li Changqing was surprised to find a large settlent nestled in the mountains, more grandiose than the Yan family, with a good number of people around.
"Let’s go ask them." Li Changqing decided to inquire of this group.
Thus Ah Fei carried Li Changqing down from the sky, landing on a plaza in this place.
"What’s that!" Many people stirred in unrest.
As Li Changqing and Ah Fei landed, several powerhouses from afar hurried over.
So carried a strong aura, even reaching the Innate Level.
"Innate?" Li Changqing speculated that this might be a sect. He couldn’t see clearly from afar and had unintentionally intruded into soone’s sect?
He had originally thought it was an ordinary family or a small mountain village.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
Three Innate Experts arrived directly, with many disciples around them cautiously retreating.
"It’s a Golden Silk Linlang Beast!"
One of the Innate Powerhouses exclaid.
The other two also nodded in astonishnt, indeed it’s a Golden Silk Linlang Beast.
They were seeing a Golden Silk Linlang Beast for the first ti.
Previously they had only seen it depicted in paintings or docunted in descriptions.
"Roar!" Ah Fei, seeing the Innate Experts, cast a wary gaze filled with strong montum in his roar, making the Innate Powerhouses’ faces change dramatically, prompting imdiate retreat.
They felt an overwhelming force from the Golden Silk Linlang Beast.
It seed like Ah Fei could easily crush their skulls with a swipe.
Thus, with Ah Fei’s roar, everyone present was on high alert.
"Ah Fei, no rudeness." Li Changqing saw Ah Fei scare the people and quickly reprimanded him.
Only then did Ah Fei retreat a couple of steps, obediently crouching by Li Changqing’s side.
"Esteed Senior, I wonder what brings you to our Yunling Sect today." At this mont, a man in his sixties with eyes gleaming approached from among the crowd.
His aura was even stronger than the three Innate Powerhouses.
"Sect Leader." Seeing the newcor, the Innate Powerhouses greeted respectfully.
"I am Lin Shengnan of Yunling Sect." The man made a courteous bow to Li Changqing.
Although he just arrived, even he was deeply shaken by Ah Fei’s roar.
A person capable of controlling such a powerful Golden Silk Linlang Beast must be even stronger.
So strong that even Lin Shengnan couldn’t discern Li Changqing’s level.
So Lin Shengnan presented himself humbly.
"Li Changqing." Li Changqing noted the other’s courtesy, knowing he intruded upon their sect, thus he clasped his hand in greeting.
"Oh? So it’s Changqing Senior, a pleasure indeed." Lin Shengnan hastily reciprocated courteously.
Li Changqing knew it to be just polite words; he wasn’t famous anyway, how could there be prior familiarity?
"Changqing Senior’s visit to our Yunling Sect truly graces us; my apologies for any shortcomings in our hospitality. Please, co inside." Lin Shengnan promptly invited Li Changqing.
Regardless of Li Changqing’s purpose, he couldn’t let it be said they lacked decorum.
"No, my apologies indeed for the intrusion on your sect. I rely wished to ask for directions to the Mountain Ancient Land, but I am not familiar with the way, thus my disturbance. I would be grateful for your guidance." Li Changqing swiftly explained.
"The Dao Mountain Ancient Land?" Upon hearing Li Changqing ntion this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Before understanding Li Changqing’s intentions, they had always suspected that Li Changqing harbored ulterior motives against the Yunling Sect and was there to cause trouble.
Now that they understood Li Changqing’s purpose, they relaxed.
He was rely asking for directions.
To make such a fuss just to ask for directions was quite scary.
"If you’re heading to the Dao Mountain Ancient Land, just head southeast," Lin Shengnan said with a smile. "So you’re a guest of the Dao Mountain Ancient Land, my apologies for not recognizing you."
For such a formidable figure to be heading to the Dao Mountain Ancient Land, he was most likely invited as a guest by so powerful figure there, or perhaps he was there to handle so business for them.
"No," Li Changqing quickly waved his hand and said, "I’m just going to the Dao Mountain Ancient Land to take care of so business. I rely run a comrce association."
"Comrce association?" Everyone was taken aback. Such a strong individual runs a comrce association?
"Yes, my association is called the Evergreen Comrce Association," Li Changqing said with a smile, revealing his background outright.
Li Changqing suddenly recalled that the Yunling Sect was indeed the backing for the Yunling Comrce Association.
When his own association gets up and running, it would inevitably encounter them, so it’s best to get acquainted now.
"What a coincidence." Seemingly trying to get closer to Li Changqing, Lin Shengnan said courteously, "Our Yunling Sect also has a comrce association under us, called Yunling Comrce Association. We are indeed in the sa business."
"Yunling Comrce Association is an established one with strong capabilities. My Evergreen Comrce Association is still in its infancy. I hope Sect Leader Lin will take care of us in the future."
Li Changqing cupped his fists as he spoke.
"Of course, of course, I look forward to many future exchanges with you, Senior Changqing." Lin Shengnan felt he had significantly closed the distance with Li Changqing, which was a great boon for the Yunling Sect.
"Thank you all for pointing the way. Until we et again."
After saying this, Li Changqing mounted Ah Fei, who flapped his wings and took to the sky, heading toward the Dao Mountain Ancient Land.
Only after Li Changqing left did everyone truly feel at ease.
"Sect Leader, never heard of the Evergreen Comrce Association," an Innate said. "Not in any of the nearby states either. It’s probably from sowhere else."
"Hmm, I haven’t heard of it either. His cultivation is astounding. If the Yunling Sect can befriend him, it will only be beneficial. We can also have the disciples inquire about the location of this Evergreen Comrce Association. We might visit in the future if the opportunity arises," Lin Shengnan instructed.
"Yes."
Several people around nodded in agreent.
As night approached, Li Changqing finally saw a city ahead.
Buhuo City.
"Ah Fei, descend."
Outside the city, Li Changqing watched as Ah Fei transford into a small dog. Looking at the city’s na, he found it quite interesting.
Li Changqing had heard of Buhuo City, which was not far from the Dao Mountain Ancient Land.
He had read in Li Hengsheng’s letter that whenever there was an outer sect purchase, they would co to Buhuo City to procure supplies.
This Buhuo City was also a necessary route to the Dao Mountain Ancient Land.
Li Hengsheng hadn’t directly let Ah Fei fly him over, considering that the Dao Mountain Ancient Land was different from other places. It was teeming with formidable figures.
The Thirty-Six Peak Masters.
The Elder Council.
There were even renowned figures like the sect leader and vice sect leader.
If he had openly flown over with Ah Fei, he’d likely be detected, and being mistaken as an intruder would be troubleso.
Since he had reached Buhuo City, Li Changqing figured he might as well walk from there.
It didn’t take much ti to get from Buhuo City to the Dao Mountain Ancient Land.
Though night was falling, Buhuo City was still bustling and lively, quite superior to Changting Town in that regard.
Li Changqing wore a curious expression since this was his first visit to another city since arriving in this world.
The streets were bustling with traffic.
Nurous carriages flowed back and forth, and lanterns hung high on either side of the street, illuminating the entire road brightly.
Cry of vendors filled the air.
On either side were stalls selling snacks, small artisanal crafts, and even calligraphy and paintings.
Li Changqing looked curiously at the paintings; they had no hint of spiritual qi, just ordinary artwork without any particular use.
Occasionally, he also spotted disciples in Dao Mountain Ancient Land attire passing by.
Li Changqing expanded his Divine Soul, overhearing their conversations.
But after listening for a long ti, he didn’t hear any information related to his son.
"Looks like that kid hasn’t got into trouble," Li Changqing muttered to himself.
His son was presently a prominent figure in the Dao Mountain Ancient Land. If sothing had indeed happened to him, the disciples would surely know, and there would be so discussion among them.
Since there were none, it ant his son was fine.
Li Changqing felt much more relaxed, not in such a hurry anymore, and instead leisurely walked along the street.
Ah Fei lay on Li Changqing’s shoulder, sharing his curiosity about the place.
"Oh, found sothing good," Li Changqing suddenly noticed a small stall by the roadside.
The stall sold tal masks.
There were copper ones, iron ones, all of various shapes.
Li Changqing thought for a mont and picked up a white mask. Since he was going to the Dao Mountain Ancient Land to secretly watch his son, it would be best not to let him notice; wearing a mask was a good idea.
"Boss, how much is this?"
"Twenty copper coins."
"No need for change." Li Changqing dropped a piece of silver, as he didn’t have any copper coins.
Seeing Li Changqing give so much, the stall owner grinned from ear to ear.
He placed the white mask on his face, letting his presence beconcealed. With no one there able to see his face, Li Changqing decided not to pretend anymore.
The Snow Feather Zen Wind Skill was employed, making him light as snow, and with a few steps, he was several hundred ters away.
