Chapter 1282 - 782: Situation and Killing Will
Chapter 1282: Chapter 782: Situation and Killing Will
Nangong Yuanwu, as a Primordial Spirit Realm of the Nangong Family, is seriously injured now, and his realm has regressed.
But the sources of information he should have are still available.
After his explanation, Lu Qing finally understood his current predicament.
According to Nangong Yuanwu, the Holy Alliance has now completely identified him as the enemy of the entire Human Race in the Heavenly Origin Great World.
Not only are all the cities plastered with his wanted posters.
Various sect forces and Great Families received strict orders to closely monitor his activities.
Should his whereabouts be discovered or suspected, they must report immediately.
Nangong Yuanwu even mentioned that the Demon Clan has also regarded him as an enemy, to be killed on sight.
Nangong Yuanwu’s words left the old servant beside him speechless and deeply shocked.
As he looked at Lu Qing, his eyes were filled with fear.
He never thought the person in front of him was actually the legendary peerless figure who had slaughtered so many Golden Core Realm experts and Human Race Primordial Spirits at Tianshu Divine Mountain back then.
No wonder he couldn’t discern the other’s realm at all; with such talent over all these years, Lu Qing must have stepped into the Primordial Spirit Realm already.
The thought that he had just considered making a move against such a ruthless person made the old servant break out in a cold sweat.
More surprisingly, his own master was actually acquainted with Lu Qing.
If this matter spreads to the family, it could cause quite a stir.
Moreover, those branches that already disliked the master might become more reckless.
Little Yan, beside them, also had her mouth slightly open.
She knew her brother had some enemies in the Heavenly Origin Great World.
But she never imagined it had reached the level of nearly being an enemy to the whole world.
It seemed when her brother returned to his home world from the Heavenly Origin Great World, he only shared good news and omitted many dangerous details.
"Mr. Lu, aside from the battle at Tianshu Divine Mountain, what did you do later to make both the Holy Alliance and Demon Clan want to kill and hunt you?"
At this moment, Nangong Yuanwu couldn’t help but ask.
Logically, for the matter at Tianshu Divine Mountain, having Lu Qing wanted by the Holy Alliance seems reasonable.
But the Demon Clan’s reaction was completely inexplicable.
Thus, Nangong Yuanwu deduced that there must have been events they were unaware of.
Otherwise, the response from the Holy Alliance and Demon Clan would not be so drastic.
"You mean you don’t know the reason, senior?" Lu Qing was somewhat surprised.
But he quickly realized it might be the Holy Alliance and Demon Clan deliberately concealing the news of that battle.
After all, ten Five Tribulation Primordial Spirits from both clans teamed up to kill a Primordial Spirit Initial Realm but ended up losing a Five Tribulation Demon King.
Such an event was incredibly embarrassing.
Any of those great Primordial Spirit powers present that day would likely try to cover up the incident to keep their faces.
"It was nothing; when this junior was undergoing the Primordial Spirit Tribulation, I was besieged by Primordial Spirit Realms from the Demon Clan and Holy Alliance, so I casually slaughtered them."
Lu Qing spoke lightly, yet his words stirred waves in the hearts of Nangong Yuanwu and the old servant.
Firstly, Lu Qing indeed passed the Primordial Spirit Tribulation and achieved the Primordial Spirit Realm.
And he went on to slay another batch of Primordial Spirit powers; no wonder the Holy Alliance and Demon Clan hated him deeply, the reason lied here.
"Now that makes sense; I didn’t expect your cultivation would progress to such a degree, Mr. Lu, achieving the Primordial Spirit realm decades ago."
Nangong Yuanwu was amazed.
When he had brought Lu Qing into the Heavenly Origin Great World, he had a premonition that this one was no ordinary talent and would achieve something noteworthy.
But he never imagined that Lu Qing would stir such a great commotion, shaking half of the Heavenly Origin Great World.
Now looking at Lu Qing, he felt like he was a cloud of mist, unable to discern his realm cultivation at all.
Thinking about the decades that passed, Lu Qing’s cultivation must have progressed significantly, likely having traveled a great distance in the Primordial Spirit Realm.
He wasn’t sure how many times Lu Qing had undergone the Primordial Spirit Tribulation, but Nangong Yuanwu was certain that Lu Qing’s realm was far beyond his own.
"You flatter me, senior. Besides seeking your guidance, I came this time to check on your well-being. According to what I know, the Holy Alliance seems to have captured many of my acquaintances in the Heavenly Origin Great World."
Lu Qing stated tentatively.
"Captured by the Holy Alliance?" Nangong Yuanwu paused, then, as if recalling something, nodded, "Yes, I’ve heard some whispers.
The Holy Alliance indeed acted to capture some people, and I’ve heard that the Gongsu family is behind this matter."
Upon saying this, Nangong Yuanwu showed a bitter smile.
"Actually, even I was supposed to be summoned for questioning, but thanks to Hong Yun, that disaster was avoided."
"Miss Mo?"
Lu Qing raised an eyebrow, slightly surprised; has she achieved such influence now?
"Indeed, it is Hong Yun; Mr. Lu, you might not know, but while traveling other worlds, she was appreciated by a predecessor from Netherworld Palace and taken as a direct disciple.
She holds quite a high position in Netherworld Palace now, with her cultivation reaching Golden Core Ninth Turn.
Given time, achieving Primordial Spirit should not be difficult.
Thanks to her, the matter of our acquaintance was suppressed."
Speaking of Mo Hongyun, Nangong Yuanwu couldn’t suppress a smile on his face.
His deepest concern was this niece.
Now, seeing her successfully entering Netherworld Palace and gaining a powerful backing, how could he not be jubilant?
"I see, I didn’t expect Miss Mo to have such a fortune; that’s indeed worth celebrating."
Lu Qing finally understood why Nangong Yuanwu was unharmed.
In the Heavenly Origin Great World, the only force capable of making the Holy Alliance and Demon Clan back down would be a colossal entity like the Netherworld Palace spanning several Immortal Domains.
But the Gongsu family...
Lu Qing recalled Nangong Yuanwu’s words and a trace of cold intent appeared in his eyes.
So the Gongsu family was also pushing this issue from behind; then they shouldn’t blame him for being ruthless.
After the Five Treasure Taoist incident, Lu Qing had initially planned to settle old scores with the Gongsu family later.
But now, he had a new idea.
Over the following time, Lu Qing sought Nangong Yuanwu’s advice on other matters, such as the location of the Holy Alliance Heavenly Prison.
Nangong Yuanwu was perplexed but shared all he knew.
"Mr. Lu, you aren’t thinking of..."
Nangong Yuanwu speculated but didn’t dare to believe it.
For it was far too audacious, even for a top Primordial Spirit, such a thought wouldn’t dare cross their mind.
"I was just inquiring casually, thank you for your information, senior. I have other things to attend to, so I won’t disturb you further. Farewell."
Gathering the information he wanted, Lu Qing rose to bid farewell to Nangong Yuanwu.
"Mr. Lu, are you leaving already?" Nangong Yuanwu was taken aback.
"Indeed, being wanted by the Holy Alliance, lingering here too long would be unfavorable for you, senior."
Lu Qing retrieved a Jade Bottle from the Qiankun One Qi Bag.
"Senior, there are several elixirs here; after refinement, they should heal your injuries. Consider it a token of my gratitude. Until we meet again."
He placed the Jade Bottle on the table, and without waiting for Nangong Yuanwu’s response, waved his arm, causing space to ripple and disappeared from the tavern with Little Yan.
"This is... Space Shifting Technique?!"
Witnessing this, Nangong Yuanwu’s eyes widened abruptly, displaying an incredulous expression and gasping in shock.
