"Huh?"
Shan Long imdiately cast a cold glance over.
The steward dared not stall any longer. Even though he found it unlikely, he quickly voiced his thoughts, "Sir, there is a sect called the Immortal Sect that Yuan Shan couldn’t even participate in the Ten Talents Trial."
Shan Long responded, "Is this a coincidence? He killed five of our Hundred Sects Alliance’s Profound Realm mbers, why would he dare to send soone to participate in Huangli City’s Ten Talents Trial? Isn’t that courting death?"
"Sir, just ask Mo Lin."
"Ask away."
The steward nodded.
"Does the Immortal Sect have a disciple nad Lele and a gatekeeper nad Yun Liao? Do you know them?"
"Sir, it’s them!"
Mo Lin nodded imdiately.
Jiang Yueye also quickly chid in, "That Yang Lele is the son of the Clan Leader of the Yang Family in Cangwu City, and that Yun Liao is the eldest son of the Yun Family in Xingyue City. I’ve t both! The one who killed the five Profound Realm stewards was indeed the person behind the Immortal Sect’s Sect Leader, Wen Ping."
Shan Long’s eyes widened, and his whole body erupted with a surging anger, "What did you say! Then why didn’t you tell sooner that the ones unwilling to save Mo Yue were from the Immortal Sect?"
Honestly, he was about to explode with rage.
He had greatly admired and wanted to befriend and recruit them, only to find out they were the enemy.
What made him even angrier was that this was not all; the most humiliating was the seating scandal involving the Immortal Sect. He had promised the Immortal Sect a top position, initiating a precedent of a Starless Sect taking a top spot, indirectly enabling the Immortal Sect to steal all the glory. No wonder when he offered the olive branch, Wen Ping flatly refused.
So that guy was watching him make a fool of himself!
And it was all because Mo Lin and the others didn’t report back in ti.
Before Mo Lin could speak, Shan Long gritted his teeth and said, "Steward, find out imdiately which inn the Immortal Sect is staying at!"
"Sir, it’s Biyue Tower!" the steward responded promptly.
"Let’s go, follow to Biyue Tower!"
With that said, Shan Long strode out of the room in great strides.
Upon exiting, he assembled over a hundred 13th-Realm guards from the Hundred Sects Alliance, including four Profound Realm mbers, and headed grandly towards Biyue Tower.
But upon reaching Biyue Tower, Room No. 12 in the Heaven character section was already deserted!
Shan Long stood in the empty room, listening to the words of the inn’s assistant behind him.
"Sir, the guests left this room yesterday."
Hearing this news, Shan Long slowly closed his eyes, the cold expression on his face was terrifying. Though he didn’t say anything, the four Profound Realm mbers standing behind him didn’t dare to breathe a word. If Shan Long’s criticism made people afraid, his current expressionless state made them feel uneasy!
Commanding authority without anger, concealed killing intent under suppressed rage!
If he doesn’t get angry it’s fine, but when he does, East Lake might just witness a drastic change.
After a while, Shan Long spoke solemnly, his eyes radiating with a glow of revenge, "So Wen Ping, thought you could play and just leave?"
The steward quickly responded from the side, "Sir, I will imdiately send people to chase them. They’ve only left a day ago, surely they haven’t gone far."
Shan Long continued, "Kill them when you see them! As for the others, co with to the Immortal Sect."
And why go to the Immortal Sect?
To bring its downfall, of course!
Shan Long didn’t spell it out, but everyone knew that was the second half of the sentence left unsaid.
But the steward stopped Shan Long, "Sir, the Ten Talents Trial is about to take place in a few days, leaving now might not be appropriate."
Shan Long instantly retorted coldly, "Are you in charge or am I in charge? Can Murong Qing not manage without in this Huangli City?"
"Sir, that’s not what I an. It’s just that the person backing the Immortal Sect isn’t ordinary. Conservatively estimated to be of the Middle Profound Realm, otherwise, how could he kill the five stewards. The Ten Talents Trial is imminent, please reconsider the priorities, sir." After saying that, the steward tightly shut his mouth, not daring to utter another word.
However, Shan Long halted upon hearing these words, and after a long silence, perhaps contemplating the issue of priorities, or thinking about how to make a quick return.
Eventually, Shan Long spoke.
"Issue a bounty, a reward of 50 White Crystals, to bring chaos to the Immortal Sect, and take the head of their Sect Leader, Wen Ping!"
Everyone was stunned by this statent.
White Crystals!
This is supposed to be the bounty for killing a Middle Profound Realm mber.
...
Yunlan Mountain.
At dusk.
Qin Mo and others were eating in the kitchen. Seeing Qin Shan not showing up, Qin Mo asked Zhao Yi, "Senior Zhao, did you not find Elder Qin?"
Zhao Yi shook his head.
"Strange, he was so eager to eat for the past few days, but today he didn’t show up on ti." Qin Mo shook his head helplessly, but soon gave it no more thought.
Perhaps Qin Shan is at a critical mont in his cultivation.
After everyone had eaten, they all headed to the dormitory area, preparing to receive the infusion of Flood Dragon’s Fury while listening to Yu Mo’s tales of travel.
But upon arriving in the dormitory area, Yu Mo was nowhere to be found.
Just when everyone was puzzled, Qin Shan and Yu Mo returned together, murmuring to each other as they walked.
"Brother Qin, how is the Immortal Slaying World?"
"Truly magnificent, entirely different from this world. They don’t cultivate Vein Techniques, but Magic, using the Qi of Heaven and Earth."
"To utilize the Qi of Heaven and Earth to its fullest, creating Magic stronger than Vein Techniques, the people in that world are truly remarkable."
Qin Shan nodded, then switched the topic, "But it’s a pity, Zhang Xiaofan obtained the Celestial Sound Temple’s Non-Transmission Technique—Great Brahma Wisdom, yet it slowed down his cultivation. Not favored by the sect’s elders initially, and now after joining the Immortal Sect, he ended up cooking. Coming from the sa village, that Lin Jingyu already received the ’Dragon-slaying Sword’ reward, while Xiaofan’s cultivation can’t improve, and his beloved fell for another senior brother. Truly lantable."
Qin Shan shook his head and sighed.
Yu Mo chuckled without showing any disappointnt on his face, instead saying, "If you keep watching tomorrow, you’ll see. Xiaofan isn’t just a jinx. Rember that Bloodthirsty Pearl? Later on..."
"Later your head!"
Qin Shan suddenly pushed Yu Mo away, with a look that said if you dare to spoil, I’ll dare to hit you.
However, Yu Mo showed no fear and continued, "In short, Xiaofan later beca quite formidable. The Magic learned was no worse than the Fire Snake Skill or Fire Dragon Skill from the Ten Layers Tower."
"Hey, you guy!"
"Okay, not saying anymore, you’ll see tomorrow. The heavens are impartial, treating all things as straw dogs, how pitiful and lantable!"
"What do you an by that?"
"You’ll know when you keep watching, just keep watching."
"Hey, putting on airs. If I hadn’t visited the Ten Layers Tower this afternoon, I’d definitely have experienced more than you did in that world."
...
Witnessing this scene and hearing their cryptic conversation, Qin Shan and the others looked at the duo with confusion.
"Elder Qin!"
Upon Qin Shan’s approach, everyone shouted in unison.
Seeing that everyone didn’t react to Yu Mo, Qin Shan quickly said, "From today onwards, Senior Yu Mo is also an Elder of the Immortal Sect. If you have any questions regarding cultivation, feel free to ask. He has plenty of ti; stays idle every day for twelve hours. From today, things I should do, Elder Yu will take over."
"Hey, this trick... Later, Xiaofan went to chop bamboo, not only refining the Bloodthirsty Pearl and Soul-Catching Rod into a Magical Treasure but also took in a Three-Eyed Spirit Monkey as a pet. In the subsequent Spirit Mountain Duel, he was absolutely remarkable!"
"Still talking!"
Qin Shan kicked Yu Mo’s butt right away.
Then, from a small bridge ca Wen Ping’s voice, "Spoilers, hit freely!"
(The improved version of the Immortal Slayer integrates both the novel and drama versions, as the drama version had too many cheesy plots, love stories... Annoying.)
