As soon as the man blurted out the na "Wu Zhong," several nearby Yan Yi Envoys simultaneously turned their gaze towards him.
In Yan City, Wu Zhong was the absolute emperor; even ntioning his na was taboo.
The middle-aged man next to him was so frightened that he hastily tried to cover the man's mouth.
t with a fierce glare from the man, the middle-aged man could only retract his hand reluctantly.
"Little Ancestor, let's go back. I've already told you, the Ghost Emperor is elusive and not currently in Yan City. Besides, if the Sect Master couple finds out that you are on the Ghost Emperor's turf, they will surely scold to death." Following at the side of the red-clothed man was one of the Jueqing Sect's Four Guardians.
"If you want to go back, go back by yourself. I must find Wu Zhong to avenge Thirteen," said Bo Qing, the Young Sect Master of Jueqing Sect, his face seething with hatred as he ntioned Wu Zhong's na.
Bo Qing had lived for sixteen years and had never truly hated a person.
But this ti, he truly despised soone.
Wu Zhong, the person who caused the death of Thirteen.
The only person he had ever loved in his life, killed by Wu Zhong.
And he, to no avail, could not even retrieve the beloved's Spirit Coffin.
Recalling that day, Wu Zhong hadn't even made a move yet had already defeated him, the sheer disparity in strength made Bo Qing hate himself even more.
After the incident at Taiyi Secret Realm, Elder Huo Yan tragically returned to Jueqing Sect with an inconsolable Bo Qing.
But thereafter, the usually lazy and comfort-seeking Bo Qing changed as if he was a different person.
He suddenly changed back into n's clothing, no longer dressing like a seductive beauty.
He began to cultivate day and night, imrsing himself in the Martial Pavilion of Jueqing Sect.
In just over half a year, Bo Qing had actually managed to break through to the Reincarnation Realm, and recently even advanced to the Reincarnation Second Realm, aiming for the Third Paths. This progress was startling to the Four Guardians.
The Four Guardians, who had watched Bo Qing grow up, knew sothing must have happened to the Young Sect Master.
However, whenever they asked, the Young Sect Master always showed unprecedented sorrow.
Such a Young Sect Master, even they felt pained looking at him.
Perhaps after half a year, Bo Qing still felt his cultivation was too shallow.
He had learned from sowhere about the Eighteen Yan Cities, which are rare cities of Life and Death on the mainland, where martial artists (Alchemists) can obtain all they desire.
More importantly, the Eighteen Yan Cities belonged to Wu Zhong.
According to Bo Qing's unusual logic, since he couldn't defeat Wu Zhong himself, he decided to teach a lesson to Wu Zhong's subordinates, or at the very least, create chaos in Wu Zhong's city.
By doing this, he wasn't afraid that Wu Zhong himself wouldn't show up.
Bo Qing was a man of action. He had forced his way through several Yan Cities, staying for three months in each. Yan City No.9 was his second target.
Today marked their tenth day entering Yan City No.9, as Bo Qing first arrived at the Advanced Public Area.
During these days, the Young Sect Master had killed ten Reincarnation Realm experts and injured thirty to forty people, making him a dark horse in the Advanced Public Area in a very short ti.
He had consequently entered the Qing Province Reincarnation List, ranking seven hundred and thirtieth.
Seeing the Young Sect Master not heeding advice and leaving, the protector could only sigh.
Right after Ye Lingyue and Bo Qing and others left Yan City No.9, Hong Mingyue and Luo Song also ca out.
Facial expressions of Hong Mingyue appeared slightly flushed, evidently having just been through a fierce battle.
"Ming Yue, I didn't expect you to enjoy such places like Yan City. Earlier, your senior brother was worried that you would bla for bringing you here," Luo Song said while observing Hong Mingyue beside him, who seed even more beautiful after a battle.
Earlier in the Advanced Public Area, Luo Song had seen an unknown side of Hong Mingyue, his icy beauty junior sister, who also had a ruthless side.
Just now, she had already defeated her opponent but delivered an additional palm strike in the end.
That Reincarnation Realm martial artist would either die or be crippled.
"As long as it can increase my cultivation and allow to break through faster, I am willing to go anywhere. Senior Brother, you know the Hong Residence is currently facing internal and external troubles. In a few months, it will be the Imperial Examination, and this ti, I cannot afford any mistakes," Hong Mingyue's eyes flashed with a savage gleam.
Yan City, truly a wonderful place.
She had discovered a side of herself unknown to others.
When Primordial Power shattered soone's top of the skull, the delightful sound of bones cracking, along with the sound of enemies kneeling and begging for rcy, was the most enchanting music to her ears.
Hong Mingyue closed her eyes, her hands still retaining the feeling of a sudden increase in heartbeat from when she had hurt soone.
One day, she would also defeat Ye Lingyue this way.
And in front of everyone, she wanted the entire Daxia to know that there is only one Princess Yue in Daxia, and only one talent in Hong Residence, and that is her, Hong Mingyue.
"Junior Sister, with your talent, a minor Daxia Imperial Competition is nothing to worry about. We might as well consider getting so decent Spiritual Artifacts in Yan City No.9," Luo Song said dismissively.
In his view, Hong Mingyue was definitively the first place in the Daxia Imperial Competition.
The siblings left Yan City No.9 with smiles on their faces.
The night gradually faded, and the sunrise was only half an hour away.
In the perpetual day and night of Yan City No.9, on a towering city tower, a man stood with his hands behind his back.
The man looked at the ghost fires twinkling like stars and suddenly raised his hand.
His hand was slender and strong.
In the sky of Yan City No.9, where several blue ghost fires were always floating, they suddenly flew towards the man's hands.
The blue flas reflected on the man's face, illuminating it.
He wore a silver-white mask, identical in color and nearly identical in shape to Wu Zhong's mask.
The several ghost fires, like fireflies, scrambled to enter the man's hand.
The man casually grabbed a ghost fire, revealing within scenes from Ye Lingyue and Bo Qing's earlier combats in the Basic-level Public Area and Advanced Public Area.
The other ghost fires revealed similar scenes.
These ghost fires were not ordinary fires but surveillance devices watching over the entire Yan City; unbeknownst to its inhabitants.
After watching several ghost fires, the man's face bore a contemplative look.
"It seems a few interesting lab rats have arrived in Yan City; it looks like the coming days won't be boring," the man murmured with a soft laugh, his fingertips coming together as the few ghost fires dispersed and vanished.
