Liu Ruxiang and Zhou Yuliang, seeing these three peak masters at the entrance, were already scared out of their wits, not daring to approach at all.
Fortunately, these three peak masters did not trouble them. The two bypassed the three peak masters, sprinting all the way and finally reached the place they previously agreed upon with Ning Qianshu.
Ning Qianshu was already standing there, and upon seeing them arrive, a faint smile brushed across his lips. He calmly looked at the two until they ca before him and then softly asked, "How did it go?"
Liu Ruxiang and Zhou Yuliang exchanged a glance, Liu Ruxiang whispered, "Master, the task is done, the opportunity has been given to Huangfu Ziyu. However..."
"What happened?" Ning Qianshu slightly frowned; Liu Ruxiang's expression showed that things didn't go smoothly.
"It's just that when we caught up, it was already kind of late." Liu Ruxiang whispered, "At that ti, Huangfu Ziyu dragged soone into the inner tomb, and we were too late to assist, so we only managed to throw the opportunity onto Huangfu Ziyu. But, Huangfu Ziyu has already entered the inner tomb, this... this is probably a dire situation!"
"Huangfu Ziyu entered the inner tomb?" Ning Qianshu's expression changed; he knew well what the inner tomb represented. Those who enter the inner tomb, even peak masters, cannot co out alive. If Huangfu Ziyu went inside, what would happen? If Huangfu Ziyu died inside the inner tomb, wouldn't all of Heavenly Master Lin Xuan Yue's arrangents be in vain?
"Yes, not only did she go in, later a group entered, the inner tomb's chanisms have been activated, most likely they're all dead inside. Moreover, the inner tomb's gate is also closed, and this gate isn't easy to reopen." Liu Ruxiang lowered his head, secretly observing Ning Qianshu's expression, but Ning Qianshu's face was disguised, showing no clear changes.
Actually, Liu Ruxiang and Zhou Yuliang were more puzzled that after entering the ng District, Ning Qianshu always disguised himself this way, and they wondered what he was hiding from. Logically, even if he was disguised, soone like Helian Tiehua could easily recognize him, so what was the point of this disguise?
Nonetheless, the two dared not ask further, as they were well aware that Ning Qianshu's actions must have his reasons.
Ning Qianshu remained silent for quite a while, suddenly pulling out his phone and gesturing to Liu Ruxiang and Zhou Yuliang to step aside. The two retreated quickly, allowing Ning Qianshu space to make his call.
Ning Qianshu directly dialed Heavenly Master Lin Xuan Yue's number, and within three rings, the call connected, with Heavenly Master Lin Xuan Yue's calm voice arriving on the line, "Was it done?"
"The opportunity was given to Huangfu Ziyu, but Huangfu Ziyu also entered the inner tomb." Ning Qianshu said in a deep voice, "The chanisms in the inner tomb have been activated, and many have died inside. The inner tomb's door is closed, Huangfu Ziyu seems... seems unlikely to survive. Heavenly Master, should we adjust our plan?"
"No adjustnt needed, it's perfect timing!" Lin Xuan Yue calmly replied.
"Perfect timing?" Ning Qianshu was taken aback, puzzled, "What... what do you an? Could it be... could Huangfu Ziyu survive the inner tomb? Isn't it true that not even peak masters can co out alive from there?"
"Peak masters can't survive coming out, but the owner of the Sun Shooting Bow can." Lin Xuan Yue paused and said, "If Huangfu Ziyu were to die so easily, why would I invest so much effort in her, why give her this opportunity?"
"By the way, Heavenly Master, what exactly is that opportunity?" Ning Qianshu asked in surprise, "It looked like a small, irregular object, weightless in hand, what's going on?"
"What is opportunity? Fate is determined by Heaven, things created by the heart!" Lin Xuan Yue said, "What is called opportunity can be destiny, can be human endeavor. Old Wang Ba exchanged three years of prosperity for Ye Qing, which was an opportunity. What Huangfu Ziyu received was also an opportunity."
"What... what do you an?" Ning Qianshu was utterly bewildered, as Lin Xuan Yue's words were very mysterious and incomprehensible to him.
"What you delivered was actually a fragnt of the Sun Shooting Bow!" Lin Xuan Yue said.
"What?" Ning Qianshu was completely astonished, he never thought that this opportunity was actually a fragnt of the Sun Shooting Bow?
"During Divine Doctor An Shiping's era, I already calculated that the next opening of Heaven Earth Man Three Gates would surpass any previous ones. Therefore, at that ti, I did not fight for the Sun Shooting Bow, but rely struck off a fragnt from it. This fragnt has been suppressed by for years, and now it's finally useful!" Lin Xuan Yue paused and continued, "Huangfu Ziyu obtaining that fragnt of the Sun Shooting Bow will inevitably attract the Sun Shooting Bow, thereby fully commanding it, which is the opportunity I'm giving her. The price I paid for this opportunity is that during the previous opening of Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, I did not compete!"
Ning Qianshu slowly nodded, finally having so understanding of the situation. It seems that before Divine Doctor An Shiping entered Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, Lin Xuan Yue had planned everything, devising for this opening of Heaven Earth Man Three Gates. Heavenly Master Lin Xuan Yue truly has unmatched strategies, foresight beyond heaven!
"But, Huangfu Ziyu is trapped inside the inner tomb, how... how is she supposed to co out?" Ning Qianshu asked softly.
"With the Sun Shooting Bow in hand, she'll naturally find a way out, you don't need to worry about these things," said Lin Xuan Yue. "Now, imdiately have your two disciples leave Hung City, and you need to handle another matter."
"What matter?" Ning Qianshu paused, then said, "Helian Tiehua has already recognized , my disguise didn't really work. Should I just revert to my real face!"
"No need," Lin Xuan Yue replied. "Your disguise isn't to avoid Helian Tiehua, but to avoid another group of people. Now, go to the southwest corner of Dragon Burial Mountain, there's a shrub area there, retrieve a map. Once you have the map, leave Hung City imdiately, don't linger there!"
"Okay, I'll go right away!" Ning Qianshu had no doubt in Lin Xuan Yue's words, hung up the phone, and imdiately had his two disciples leave here first, while he followed Lin Xuan Yue's instructions and headed straight to the southwest corner of Dragon Burial Mountain to look for that shrub area.
Ning Qianshu moved quickly, and it wasn't long before he reached the southwest corner. Luckily, there weren't many shrubs here; he searched each one, and before long, he found a map in one of them. The map was the one Ye Qing had hidden here earlier, the one related to the Minghong Knife!
Ning Qianshu didn't know what important secrets this map contained, but since it was the Heavenly Master's instruction, he followed it. Holding the map, Ning Qianshu imdiately turned and used Qinggong to leave without any hesitation.
Not long after Ning Qianshu left, two people erged from behind a boulder nearby, it was the Bishop and Earl who had been hiding here all along. Since they were injured by White-haired Ding San last ti, they had been hiding nearby and hadn't left.
They were hiding here, firstly to avoid being chased, secondly to find that map, and thirdly to wait for their reinforcents to arrive.
The Bishop hadn't found the map on Ye Qing's body, nor had he seen Ye Qing et anyone, so he assud the map was hidden nearby. The two of them had no other business, so they stayed hidden like "waiting for a hare to co and hit the tree," hoping to see if anyone would co by to take that map.
Actually, neither of them held much hope, but unexpectedly, they managed to wait for soone to co after all this ti. Seeing Ning Qianshu take the map, they were both excited.
"Quick, stop him!" the Earl said impulsively.
"Are you crazy!" The Bishop grabbed him, urging, "Look at the speed of this person, his strength is definitely above ours. If we go to stop him, it's as good as sending ourselves to die!"
"What should we do? Are we supposed to just watch him take the map away?" the Earl asked anxiously.
The Bishop shook his head and laughed, "No rush, I've already morized this person's appearance. Duke Red Bishop will be arriving soon; at that ti, I'll inform him of this person's appearance, and he'll personally go to retrieve the map!"
"Red Bishop!" The Earl's eyes showed obvious shock and asked curiously, "Red Bishop is going to co personally?"
"Of course!" The Bishop nodded and said, "Not only Red Bishop, but even Lord Sara will co."
"Lord Sara!" The Earl was even more amazed and said, "They... they both haven't shown up for a long ti, yet for the matter of the Sun Shooting Bow, they're willing to personally enter Huaxia, is the Sun Shooting Bow really that important?"
The Bishop shook his head and said, "I don't know what they're really after, but since both lords are coming personally, we'll just wait."
The Earl took a deep breath, suddenly with a cold expression, said grimly, "This ti, with Lord Sara and Red Bishop coming, these Huaxia Martial Artists, who would dare to be rude to us? At that ti, we'll have Lord Sara and Red Bishop kill the strongest ones among them and step on all Huaxia Martial Artists, showing them how powerful we are!"
The Bishop said nothing; he was more aware of the strength of the Huaxia Martial Artists than the Earl. Hence, he knew very well that just a Lord and a Red Bishop alone wouldn't accomplish anything significant. What he was most concerned about was that map, which concerned the whereabouts of the Minghong Knife; under no circumstances should it fall into the hands of the Huaxia Countryn.
At the mont, Ning Qianshu was already holding the map, making his way towards the road out of ng District. He didn't know that his disguised appearance had been morized. If he knew about this, he would surely be even more amazed at the Heavenly Master's divine foresight. Right now, he was only contemplating how Huangfu Ziyu could possibly co out from that inner tomb.
