Chapter 15 Emperor Yu’s Hall Makes its Move!
In the house of the City Lord of Wu City, two soldiers at the door were stomping their feet occasionally.
This winter, was indeed freezing.
“Please let enter I have a ssage and, I need see the City Lord; it’s about Teng Qingshan.” Sun Feng took out so crushed silver, their eyes sparkled as they halved it then, one of the guard smiled, “Teng Qingshan? Nowadays, so many people want to be rich. A few days ago, soone told that he knew where Teng Qingshan was. But after so investigation, it turned out be fake. But because of the money you gave us, we will give a ssage. Wait here.”
Obviously, he guard was in a good mood as he ran towards the City Lord’s house.
In a small city like Wu City, the guards were just ordinary muscular n, they didn’t have many skills. They would be satisfied just by giving them so money.
A few minutes later——
That guard could be seen running back with a smile, “You’re lucky. The City Lord is not really busy right now, I’ll let you in. But rember this, when we are inside you can’t wander around, you have to follow .” The guard imdiately led Sun Feng into the City Lord’s house.
In a training room, in the house that belonged to the City Lord of Wu City.
A short-bearded, tuff man, wearing a shirt, was waving his sword in the room, his moves were simple, but they were also fast as lightning.
Hu! Hu!
The fierce force of air left grooves on the floor laid with azure green stones.
“City lord, he is here.” The guard shouted.
The City lord stopped practicing then he turned around look outside, and smiled “Co in! Night now, everyone wants to find Teng Qingshan since everyone wants to earn that one thousand taels of gold. The reward for just notifying his whereabouts was one thousand taels of gold, no wonder so many people are trying to find Teng Qingshan.
The guard left and Sun Feng stepped in the Training Room
“Good skill of saber.” Sun Feng praised. “Even the wind brought up by the saber could leave grooves on the azure green stone paved ground. With such skill of saber.....City Lord’s na should be in the《Earthly Ranking》. After saying this, Sun Feng moved in a flash and floated passed in a weird arc like a leaf. He then stood two zhangs ahead of the City Lord of Wu City.
The City Lord’s eyes brightened as he exclaid in surprise, “Good Qinggong!”
Sun Feng laughed and said, “Qinggong is the only skill I can show others.”
The City lord of Wu city was a wise man. Just by looking at his Qinggong, the City Lord could tell that this quick-witted fellow was an expert. These few days the people who ca with reports were mostly ordinary people. Whenever they saw soone who held a silver long spear, they would say that it’s Teng Qingshan, and whenever they see soone holding a big black axe, they would say it’s Teng Qingshan.
Because of that, the City Lord was very frustrated and angry.
But....
Normally, powerful experts were not that boring.
“I won’t hide a fact. Actually, I live off everyone.” Sun Feng smiled.
“A godly thief?” The City lord smiled along.
“It’s just a regular thief. The City Lord just called godly thief! I am blushing.” Sun Feng said with a smile, “This is what happened, I was targeting a group of rchants. One of them is just a rchant that is doing business from Yangzhou to Yanzhou and his na is Qin Wei. A rchant who travelled this far must be doing a big business. Thus, I wanted to reap so profit through him.
“His group was resting at an inn today. When Qin Wei went to the restroom, I entered into his room and opened his luggage. “ Said Sun Feng as he smiled. Actually, these lies were all prepared. Behind the portrait that his teacher gave him, there were the drawings of a luggage case and the Reincarnation Spear and the Splitting Mountain Axe which were hid within the empty compartnt of the luggage case.
As the City Lord listened, his eyes brightened.
“There were just so tea bricks in the boxes. However.........there was a suitcase in one of the boxes. There was nothing special with it . But it’s . I’ve seen every way you could hide stuff. I easily spotted a hidden compartnt. I surprisingly discovered that in there were two parts of a spear and a black axe.” Sun Feng said.
Hearing this, the City Lord was shocked.
“Really?” he couldn’t believe it.
“Of course, do you think I was bored?” Sun Feng smiled, “ I was planning to take an action, so I already checked the whole company of rchants. That Qin Wei, travelled from Yang Zhou to the Huyue County City of Qingzhou. He then joined the caravan organized by Hu’s Trading Company and arrived at the Hu City of Yu Zhou! I think there’s a ninety percent possibility of him being Teng Qingshan.
When the City Lord heard, he started to believe it even more.
Firstly, Sun Feng was an expert and he is a godly thief. These kind of experts wouldn’t have a bad eyesight. More importantly they never waste any ti.
Secondly, according to Sun Feng said, that ‘Qin Wei ca all the way from Yang Zhou.
“Haha, I still don’t know who you are?” The City Lord said.
“I am Yan Feng.” Sun Feng said.
“Oh. Brother Yan Feng, can you stay here temporarily? I will pay you that one thousand gold taels after I confird that he really is Teng Qingshan. You will just have to wait for a few days.” Said the City Lord of Wu City. Sun Feng responded with a smile, “If City Lord doesn’t mind, of course I’m willing to stay. However, if I don’t leave with a thousand gold taels, I will feel bitter.”
After City Lord heard this, he was even more certain.
If the reporter was willing to stay, then the accuracy of this information must be good.
Imdiately, The City Lord ordered people to arrange a room for ‘Yan Feng’, He then imdiately sent a ssage to the Emperor Yu’s Hall.
......
Since the Wu City was really closer to the Imperial City, ‘Yu City,’ the ssage naturally reached the Emperor Yu’s Hall very quickly.
At the center of the Imperial City, Yu City, was an extrely large palace. This was Emperor Yu’s Palace and the base of the Emperor Yu’s Hall.
In the Nine Cauldron Palace of the Emperor Yu’s Hall.
The black chairs were arranged in a neat order, and the powerful experts of the Emperor Yu Hall were walking into the Nine Cauldrons Palace on after the other. These experts were talking with each other while waiting for last person to enter. He was a black haired man, dressed in a long black cloak inlaid with golden colored patterns?. As soon as that person entered the room, everyone stopped talking.
“Lord!” Everyone said politely.
The Lord of the Emperor Yu’s Hall scanned the crowd with his profound-looking eyes. A faint glow could be seen in his pupils. With a faint smile on his face, he spoke, “Everyone must be confused and wondering about why I hastily gathered all of you here? This matter can be considered small, because it’s only about Teng Qingshan. However, this matter can be also considered big as well! Since it involves the weapon of Emperor Yu, the martial ancestor of Emperor Yu’s Hall!”
Imdiately, the experts clamored.
The Splitting Mountain Axe that belonged to the Martial Ancestor Emperor Yu?”
“Soone found Teng Qingshan?”
The Lord of the Emperor Yu’s Hall stretched his hand and gestured downward as everyone beca silent. He continued speaking, “There was a ssage coming from Wu City. The City Lord of the Wu City said that a godly thief found the two parts of a spear and a black axe when he tried to steal from a rchant that travelled a great distance to do business!”
“The na of that rchant is Qin Wei! He departed from Yang Zhou and joined another caravan after he arrived the Huyue County City. He reached the Wu City at Yuzhou.” The Lord of the Emperor Yu’s Hall stared at the crowd and said, “Tell , everyone. What’s the possibility of this person being Teng Qingshan?”
“Lord, everywhere is talking about this so many people claid they found Teng Qingshan. But none was true. Nine out of ten was fake.”
“Not necessarily. If he was called a Godly Thief, he must have so skills. These type of people won’t lie.”
“What is this rush for? We can wait until we find Teng Qingshan.Going now will be a waste.”
......
......
In the Nine Cauldrons Palace, the high-positioned n of Emperor Yu‘s Hall had different opinions.
“Hyue County City?” Suddenly, A silver haired old elderly man said with a frown, “As far as I know, a month ago, Huyue County City was capturing people everywhere. While trying to find Teng Qingshan. I reckon that these big actions were made by Xiao Yao palace and Qing hu Island. They must have found out that Teng Qingshan is at Huyue City.”
When he said it, more people started to believe in this.
This, could be real. That Qin Wei could be Teng Qingshan.
“The Lord said before, that Qin Wei is from Yang Zhou.....Teng Qingshan was in Yang Zhou.”
Clearly the majority of people believed this.
The Lord of the Emperor Yu’s Hall smiled, “According to Wu City Lord’s ssage, that master thief is really good at Qing Gong and he could be considered as an outstanding postliminary expert. Also, right now he is living in the house which belongs to the City Lord of Wu City. Plus with the information we’ve got before.....I think there is good chance that Qing Wei might be Teng Qingshan!”
“That Black axe, If it was part of the Emperor Yu’s treasure, i think it it is the Splitting Mountain Axe .Shall we take it?” Yu Huang said.
A tall man who was wearing a black rob said, shouted “Of course we need to take it back!. That axe belongs to our Martial Ancestor, Emperor Yu! Thus, it naturally belongs to Emperor Yu’s Hall! In this whole world, Emperor Yu’s Hall has the most right to posses it.”
“Yes, we have to get the Splitting Mountain Axe back.” people shouted after him.
An Old lady said “Everyone, Yu Huang has his orders, he didn’t say to dig out the Yu Huang treasures. It’s for the person who deserves it! Also, no matter how powerful that Splitting Mountain Axe is, it is still an axe. It has no particular uses. Why bother with it? And we’re not even sure it is really the Splitting Mountain Axe.”
“Hmph. Martial Sister, I don’t think your words are right.” that skinny old man stared at her, “ They want us to keep on searching! But now, it is already found. When the other sects were fighting over the Elixir of the North Sea, we didn’t even go. Now, we just want to take back the weapon that belonged to the Martial Ancestor.. What is wrong with that?”
That Old lady said, “Martial Brother, you do an that we shall kill Teng Qingshan and take the Godly Axe? Isn’t this helping Qing Hu Island without gaining anything from them?”
“We don’t have to kill Teng Qingshan. We just need to force him to give the axe to us.” Said the thin old man.
“If you do not kill him, he will definitely escape, it will be very hard for us to find him again.” The old lady said, “Although we don’t care about Qing Hu Island, they suffered a great loss. There’s no need to provoke the Blind Swordmaster.”.
The Blind Swordmaster?
The disciples of the Emperor Yu’s Hall beca quiet. In terms of postliminary experts and the innate experts, the Emperor Yu’s Hall prevailed. Yet, how could Emperor Yu’s Hall be stronger than an Emptiness Realm Expert?
But——
During the few tis when the Blind Swordmaster attacked, the few supre sects had determined that the Blind Swordmaster must be in the Culmination of the Emptiness Realm! One could say that he was one of the few most terrifying people in this great land of the nine prefectures. Plus, the sword art of the blind swordmaster was extrely acute and terrifying. Although the Emperor Yu’s Hall, Qin Family and the Mani Temple weren’t scared, no one wanted to ss with that blind man.
“How about this, since that Teng Qingshan is at Wu City now, and he should be staying in a while. Send a ssage to Qing Hu Island! I believe that their people will arrive Wu City before dawn of tomorrow! By that ti, our n will follow him and let Qing Hu Island kill Teng Qingshan. As for the Splitting Mountain Axe.....If Emperor Yu’s Hall take it, Qing Hu Island wouldn’t dare to say anything.” The Lord of the Emperor Yu’s Hall had made up his mind.
