YM778.TV Chapter 53 - 53: Saving People, Yet Killing People? 1
“Steward Qin!”
Three secular disciples from Jinxia Town rushed over and their faces changed drastically when they saw the situation around them.
“What… What happened?”
“Someone actually dared to openly attack Steward Qin in town!”
“Steward Qin, how are you?”
Qin Changqing withdrew his gaze from the direction where the woman had retreated, and took a breath: “I’m fine.’
As he said this, he quickly looked at Murong Xue. Fortunately, the attackers hadn’t focused on her; otherwise, she might have been in real danger while pregnant.
“Alright, you guys go back first. Don’t get involved in this matter. Just report it to the sect according to the procedure.” Qin Changqing said to the people from the office.
The enemies were too powerful; these people would only be sending themselves to their deaths if they got involved.
Moreover, he probably knew who was behind it.
“It must be the Gongsun Family.” Murong Xue said, “Gongsun Ming is the leader of Yinxu Prefecture, and he has many powerful cultivators under him. As guards of Yinxu Prefecture, the aura of their murderous intentions is much stronger than that of ordinary cultivators.”
“That’s what I thought too.” Qin Changqing pondered slightly.
“Are you thinking about the black-clothed woman who appeared later?”
“Hmm, she saved me, but why did she try to kill me again? I really can’t figure it out.”
She saved him, and then tried to kill him.
But why save him in the first place?
Why not just let the attackers kill him directly?
Qin Lingshuang said, “That person is very powerful, but her aura seems to be a bit unstable. She may have been injured.”
“She can easily defeat someone at the peak of Foundation Establishment even when injured?”
Qin Changqing cursed inwardly, could this fucking be a Golden Elixir expert?
If so, he’d rather be pursued by the Gongsun Family.
Although there’s only a step between the peak of Foundation Establishment and the Golden Elixir Stage, their strengths are worlds apart.
If Foundation Establishment is the threshold to enter the path of cultivation, only at the Golden Elixir Stage can one truly become an expert, breaking free from the cycle of life and death, connecting their inner Golden Elixir to the outside world, drawing from the endless spiritual qi and having extraordinary combat power.
“Damn it, the outside world is too dangerous! Back home to have a baby!”
Qin Changqing’s consciousness entered his storage bag, and after looking at the divine symbol, he finally felt a bit more at ease.
Although the old man looked unreliable, his strand of consciousness should be able to handle a Golden Elixir Stage expert, right…?
“Let’s go, we need to get back quickly.”
After this incident, Qin Changqing had no interest in drinking tea anymore. He summoned the Golden Shuttle Boat, took the two women on board, and headed towards Heiyu Town.
“Qin Changqing…”
At a hidden spot by an ancient building on the side of the street…
The black-clothed woman came out of the dark corner, and as she watched the golden shuttle boat flying into the sky, a hint of coldness appeared in her eyes. “How dare you steal my clothes, Saintess! I will kill you myself!”
Just thinking about her personal clothes possibly being used by that filthy man for filthy purposes made Si Hongyue feel absolutely terrible. Just as she was about to chase after the golden shuttle boat…
Suddenly, a familiar wave of aura emerged.
“Tsk- You really are an intractable soul.”
Si Hongyue’s figure melted into the darkness, turning into a wisp of black mist and disappearing into the distance.
Lingxiao Sect, at the back mountain of Taixuan Peak.
Atop Baiyun Cliff.
Liu Mengxian withdrew from her cultivation and slowly opened her eyes, revealing a hint of regret.
“Cultivating the soul and returning to the void… I’m still one step away.”
To achieve the Dao, one needs to refine their essence into qi to enter the path of cultivation. Cultivating Qi, Foundation Establishment, and Golden Elixir are
actually in the stage of transforming qi.
After this, qi forms the Nascent Soul and then enters the Divine Transformation Realm, reaching the stage of refining qi into a divine existence.
However, neither qi nor divine existence can break free from their own shackles.
Only by reaching the stage of cultivating the soul and returning to the void, and stepping into the Void Refinement Realm, can one truly integrate their body with the heavens and earth, transcend their conscious mind with their divine thoughts, and enter another level of existence.
This is also the hope of the sect to advance to the Fourth Grade.
“There’s less than fifty years left until the Immortal Ascension Conference, I don’t know if I can succeed. If I miss this time…”Noticing the fluctuations in her state of mind, Liu Mengxian immediately dispelled those unnecessary thoughts.
She knew that the more anxious she was, the more likely she would make mistakes.
“Unstable state of mind…” Liu Mengxian muttered to herself.
She had cultivated too quickly.
She had always wanted to follow her father’s last wish and revitalize the Lingxiao Sect.
During the previous Tianyuan Battle, the former Sect Leader… her father, fell and entrusted the Sect to her before his death.
Perhaps, unknowingly, the task of revitalizing the Sect had become her ‘Heart Devil’.
But in reality, she wasn’t the only one plagued by the Heart Devil during that battle.
For example, MO Jiuzhou, she knew very well why he had become what he was now.
“Tianyuan… maybe, it’s time to go out and take a walk.”
Liu Mengxian stood up and gazed at the vast misty sea in the distance on the back mountain.
For some reason, she thought of Qin Changqing.
He had cultivated in the secular world yet managed to establish the foundation of Heaven’s Dao. Such great fortune was what she needed as well.
“Come to think of it, when we killed a Hehuan Sect elder back then, I seemed to have obtained a dual cultivation technique.”
Liu Mengxian pondered for a moment. She didn’t think much about it the last time she was annoyed by Qin Changqing.
In reality, although she was the Sect Leader, she wasn’t Qin Changqing’s Master, so she had no right to interfere in how he cultivated.
Whether it was good or bad for him, it was all part of Qin Changqing’s fate.
“Forget it, I’ll give it to him.”
Liu Mengxian left the back mountain and prepared to go to Xuanyi Peak.
At this moment,
A female disciple approached and respectfully said, “Master, Brother Qin
Changqing from Xuanyi Peak has sent a message.”
“Oh?” Liu Mengxian’s eyelid twitched, “What does he want?”
The female disciple hesitated for a moment before saying, “Brother Qin Changqing is going to marry Sister Murong Xue soon and wishes to inform the Sect Leader.”
Liu Mengxian’s mouth twitched slightly.
This guy, did he really come to propose to her Taixuan Peak?
“Master! Master!”
On Xuanyi Peak, Baiyun Mountain rushed into MO Jiuzhou’s courtyard.
But in the next moment, an invisible force threw him out.
MO Jiuzhou walked out from inside the house, glaring at him, “What’s all the fuss about? Is that how you behave?”
Baiyun Mountain rubbed his buttocks and complained, “Master, I have something to report to you, MO Jiuzhou leisurely walked into the courtyard and sat down.
“What is it?”
“Master, Big Brother is getting married again!”
“Pfft!
MO Jiuzhou spat out immediately.
He reflexively stood up, grabbed the knife for killing chickens in the corner, and rushed out of the courtyard.
Baiyun Mountain: “Master, where are you going?”
MO Jiuzhou: “I’m going to kill that unfilial disciple of mine!”
Baiyun Mountain: “Master, this time Big Brother is marrying someone from
Taixuan Peak, that Murong Xue.”
MO Jiuzhou’s footsteps halted, and his anger quickly turned into laughter, “Hahaha! My good disciple is really something, actually marrying someone from Taixuan Peak. Yes, yes! Good! It really brings honor to me!”
Baiyun Mountain was speechless, thinking to himself that his Master’s face changed too quickly.
However, Big Brother was indeed amazing. He remembered the promise made in the secret realm back then, and hadn’t expected it to come true in the end.
“When will he get married?” MO Jiuzhou asked.
“They said it will be soon, and they just wanted to inform you first. But the location has been changed to Yinxu Prefecture, as the Qin family is moving there now.”
“Hmm, Yinxu Prefecture, huh…
MO Jiuzhou Dondered, “You go and tell Mu Yuntao, mv precious disciple is coming to his territory. If anything happens to him, I will hold him responsible!”
Mu Yuntao managed the affairs of Yinxu Prefecture as an Outer Sect Elder of the Lingxiao Sect.
Baiyun Mountain bowed, “I understand…. Master, should we send some wedding gifts?”
