Two blossoms blood, each on its own branch.
Now, let’s speak of the few remaining elders of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird on Wu Kun Mountain, who fled back into the main hall like dogs that had lost their hos. Their faces were ashen, their expressions gloomy, and their hearts were filled with shock and fear. However, seeing that the young man in white didn’t pursue them, they couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"We must report this to the Sect Master imdiately and ask him to co to our aid!" an elder frowned, promptly walking to a small Teleportation Array on the west side of the hall. He took out a Jade Slip, infused his ssage into it, and placed it into the Teleportation Array. A flash of light emanated, and the Jade Slip vanished.
"The Sect Master is a Life and Death Realm powerhouse. Once he arrives, he will undoubtedly kill that young man in white and avenge Vice Sect Leader Liu!" another elder exclaid, gritting his teeth.
This ti, the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird had suffered a major setback, losing not only a Saintess but also a Deputy Sect Master and an Elder in Charge. It was because this Saintess was bewitched by that man that a series of bloody incidents occurred. Now, everyone waited anxiously in the hall.
「anwhile, in the Sect Leader’s Main Hall of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird in the Heavenly Moon Dynasty」
A ray of light suddenly flared from the Teleportation Array, and the spatial vibrations caused an elder, who was seated in ditation deep within the hall, to open his eyes.
A Jade Slip via teleportation? What on earth happened?
Seeing the Jade Slip, the elder’s facial muscles twitched slightly. He reached out and caught it. This elder was Gongsun Changsheng, the current Sect Master of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird. He was also one of the two Life-Death Realm Powerhouses in the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird. The other powerhouse was a Supre Elder of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird, but this Supre Elder had been in secluded cultivation for many years.
"What?!" Gongsun Changsheng roared after reading the Jade Slip’s contents. "How could sothing like this happen? Mu Qing, you ungrateful wretch! After all the years the sect spent nurturing you!"
He leaped to his feet, his Super Divine Dragon Breath surging overwhelmingly, terrifyingly potent. He could never have dread that soone would dare to openly kill a Deputy Sect Master of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird on Wu Kun Mountain. A Deputy Sect Master, a Half-Step Life-Death Realm powerhouse, was a grievous loss for the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird. What was even more unexpected was that the sect’s Saintess had defected. As a celebrated Saintess, she should have been aloof and detached, yet she was captivated by that man’s appearance and brazenly defected from the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird. This was sothing Gongsun Changsheng found utterly unacceptable. The anger in his heart billowed like monstrous waves, one after another, causing the very air in the hall to hum.
"Sect Master, what has happened?" an elder in the Destiny Realm asked in a low voice from outside the main hall.
"The Saintess has defected from the sect, and Vice Sect Master Liu has been killed on Wu Kun Mountain," Gongsun Changsheng replied, walking out with a grim expression.
"What? Vice Sect Master Liu is dead, and the Saintess has defected?" This elder’s face turned extrely pale upon hearing this.
"Sect Master, I will gather our forces imdiately! We’ll all charge into Wu Kun Mountain!" the elder declared, gritting his teeth.
"There’s no need for that. More people won’t be of much use. That fellow is rely at the Peak of the Tenth Level of Destiny Realm," Gongsun Changsheng said, a confident smile appearing on his face. I am a cultivator at Level one of the Life and Death Realm. With my cultivation base, I can easily crush dozens of cultivators at the Half-Step Life-Death Realm. There’s no need for the sect to make a big fuss; it would only make us a laughingstock. I’ll go there by myself and kill that fellow directly.
From the information in the Jade Slip, he had also learned that the white-robed man possessed quite a few Emperor Level Dragon Spirit Pills, which intrigued him. Although I am also of the Human Race, I possess the Xuan bird’s bloodline, and Dragon Spirit Pills are extrely beneficial for greatly enhancing my physical body. If I could truly obtain a large quantity of Dragon Spirit Pills, then the loss of Vice Sect Leader Liu could be considered sowhat compensated. With a large quantity of Dragon Spirit Pills, I estimate I could break through to the Second Level of Life and Death!
The Life and Death Realm, as its na suggested, ant that every advancent involved a struggle between life and death. Breaking through each minor realm was exceptionally difficult. Precisely because of this difficulty, the gap in power between each level within the Life and Death Realm was enormous.
Gongsun Changsheng suddenly shot into the sky and, with a slight flicker, vanished.
On a mountain peak within the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird, there was a large Teleportation Array that could transport directly to Wu Kun Mountain. The small Teleportation Array in the main hall was only used for transmitting routine information.
Using the large Teleportation Array, Gongsun Changsheng arrived at the black market of Wu Kun Mountain within a few breaths. He appeared in the backyard of that main hall, where several elders were already standing by the large Teleportation Array.
"Sect Master, you’ve finally arrived!" When these few elders saw Gongsun Changsheng descend, they were all incredibly moved, so even to the point of being choked with tears. In this crisis, only a Life-Death Realm powerhouse like the Sect Master could resolve the situation.
"Rest assured, Vice Sect Leader Liu will not have died in vain," Gongsun Changsheng said, clenching his jaw. He scanned his surroundings, his eyes glinting with a cold light, and quickly locked onto a figure in white. When he saw the beautiful young woman in black standing beside the white-robed young man, he trembled with rage.
"You vile wench! How dare you betray the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird! I will kill you!" Gongsun Changsheng roared, his figure flashing as he flew rapidly towards them. He didn’t fly high but skimd close to the ground. After all, he knew that flying high was forbidden here due to a restriction, and he couldn’t afford to offend the Eternal Realm powerhouse who had set it.
「At this mont」
Ye Yun was leisurely strolling around. Although the items at the street stalls were mostly of poor quality, he found browsing them quite interesting. Truly, one should never underestimate roadside stalls. At one stall, Ye Yun even spotted a magic artifact from 100,000 years ago. Although it had lost its prowess, its ancient appearance stirred so mories within him. Ye Yun bought the artifact. Of course, he only purchased it for sentint’s sake.
A black shadow streaked over from the distance.
Gongsun Changsheng abruptly halted, coldly observing the white-robed young man before him as he drew the longsword from his back.
"Sir, it’s Gongsun Changsheng, the Sect Master of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird. He’s here," Mu Qing, who had been vigilantly scanning their surroundings, was the first to spot him.
Ye Yun casually glanced at Gongsun Changsheng, noting he was a cultivator at the First Level of the Life and Death Realm. He then lowered his head again, his attention returning to a small green gourd on a stall. The gourd was a crystalline, erald green, perfectly ford with two even lobes. Its appearance bore so resemblance to the gourd in his warehouse. Ye Yun picked up the small gourd and examined it closely.
The street stall was run by an old man. When he saw the Sect Master of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird standing in the distance, he was so frightened he trembled uncontrollably.
"Young Master, I’m not selling this gourd anymore!" the old man exclaid, swiftly snatching the gourd from Ye Yun’s hand. He bundled up his wares in a ragged cloth and turned to flee. He could see that the Sect Master of the Sacred Sect of the Mysterious Bird was approaching aggressively, seemingly about to engage in a fierce fight with the white-robed young man before him. As rely a First Level Nirvana Realm cultivator, the best of the thirty-six stratagems was to flee.
