In the Cultivation World, the only one who knew about the attack on the Yuqing Sect was Li Yuanba’s master, Jian Wuwei. Jian Wuwei had expanded his authority within the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion to the Intelligence Departnt, and he was aware of Li Yuanba’s interest in the Yuqing Sect.
Moreover, Li Yuanba was one of the few who could slay six Great Cultivators and destroy the Yuqing Sect.
However, Jian Wuwei did not interfere with what Li Yuanba was doing. The Sword Cultivators of the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion had always acted with little regard for others, and many of the resources of Sword Cultivators were plundered back with flying swords.
Jian Wuwei organized the series of intelligence from the Intelligence Departnt, and as before, he sent the information regarding the Yuqing Sect to Li Yuanba.
Knowing the content of the intelligence, he mourned in silence for the Yuqing Sect’s long-distance flying boat. A long-distance flying boat of the Yuqing Sect was about to pass through the Central State Continent, where it would trade a portion of resources, and then return to the West Yan Continent.
According to the intelligence, there was not a single Great Cultivator on the long-distance flying boat, only five Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners guarding it.
To be honest, having five Nascent Soul Middle Stage Practitioners guarding a long-distance flying boat was already taken very seriously by ordinary sects, but the Yuqing Sect was a superpower, and the wealth on its long-distance flying boat was incomparable to that of ordinary sects.
Under normal circumstances, a superpower would send Great Cultivators to accompany a long-distance flying boat, unless the resources on the flying boat were extrely low in value.
But this ti, the resources on the long-distance flying boat weren’t low in value, which inevitably led Jian Wuwei to suspect whether the Yuqing Sect was lacking in Great Cultivators.
It was not only Jian Wuwei who thought this; many forces noticed this point.
Even though the Yuqing Sect was massive, it had continuously lost so many Great Cultivators, and even a peak Great Cultivator had fallen. It was normal for the sect to have a shortage of Great Cultivators.
As a result, various forces in the West Yan also set their sights on the Yuqing Sect.
The Yuqing Sect and the White Emperor Sect were the two superpowers on the West Yan Continent, but that didn’t an there were no other forces. Although the other forces were weaker than these two superpowers, the difference mainly lay in the absence of powerful beings.
Now that the Yuqing Sect was in a weakened state, various forces were eager to take a bite out of it.
Even the White Emperor Sect, its ally, was secretly encroaching on the interests of the Yuqing Sect.
Although the Yuqing Sect had powerful beings, they couldn’t have them handle everything. Powerful beings couldn’t act wilfully; they would be monitored by other powerful beings.
If every powerful being interfered with sect disputes, the conflicts between superpowers would directly escalate to the level of powerful beings, which no one wanted to see.
Moreover, even if a powerful being wanted to get involved in ordinary affairs, they had to consider their situation, as the cost of a powerful being’s intervention was very high.
Li Yuanba set out once again. When he left the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion, he used ’One Step to Reach’.
His figure appeared eight thousand miles away, and aside from Jian Wuwei, who was inford in advance, no one else in the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion knew he had left.
With clear intelligence support, he calmly boarded a flying boat and headed towards an island.
Since the practitioners of the Yuqing Sect’s Central State division were slaughtered and the Yuqing Sect did not send another group of practitioners to take over, the Central State division had to shut down.
As a result, this ti the Yuqing Sect’s long-distance flying boat stopped at Changshui Island.
Changshui Island was a mariti trade island where many forces conducted large-scale resource transactions.
Due to the excellent mariti trade business here, even superpowers occasionally conducted so resource exchanges.
This ti, the Yuqing Sect’s long-distance flying boat passed through Changshui Island to trade with so forces on the Central State Continent.
Li Yuanba arrived near Changshui Island, looking at the intelligence from the Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion’s Intelligence Departnt.
Because the Yuqing Sect’s long-distance flying boat’s trade with so forces on the Central State Continent was public, the timing and location of the trade couldn’t be kept secret, and the intelligence in his hand had the exact ti of the long-distance flying boat’s arrival.
As for the flying boat’s route, the Intelligence Departnt did not manage to find out.
This ant he could only wait at Changshui Island, but this intelligence was already sufficient, as the route was top secret for any force and couldn’t be known by others.
There were many cultivators near Changshui Island, making it quite lively. Li Yuanba didn’t hide anything, parking the flying boat in the air without attracting much attention.
When the ti was almost right, he retracted the flying boat, activating ’Divine Eye Skill’ fully to survey the distance from a high point.
Soon, he saw a long-distance flying boat heading towards Changshui Island, with the mark of the Yuqing Sect on it.
A flash of joy crossed his eyes; his figure flickered as he activated ’One Step to Reach,’ appearing above the long-distance flying boat.
Just as he was preparing to break through the formation of the flying boat and enter its interior, suddenly a spatial energy wave emanated from the flying boat, and he found the area locked by a surge of spatial energy.
"This is a trap!" he realized with a jolt, understanding that this was a trap set against him.
However, he remained composed and did not panic. Not sensing the presence of a powerful being, he wasn’t worried as long as a powerful being didn’t personally make a move.
Although he couldn’t use the Divine Foot Skill, his Sword Escape speed still far surpassed that of other Great Cultivators.
The Xingyi Sword was most adept at speed, and with the blessing of the ’Speed Rule Imprint,’ his Sword Escape speed was far superior to those Great Cultivators who hadn’t mastered the ’Speed Rule.’
