Chapter 154: Arrival of the Sect Master of the Qingyun Sect, Victor’s Status!
Although Bai Yulan felt a little heartache after hearing Victor’s request, she knew what Victor wanted wasn’t much. In other words, the other items weren’t up to Victor’s standards.
Nevertheless, she didn’t have much room to bargain.
In fact, the revival of the sect didn’t rely on top-grade spiritual items like the Void Magic Stone. Instead, it relied on the complete inheritance of cultivation methods, spirit stones, large amounts of low-grade spiritual tools, and low-grade medicinal pills. These were the things that a large number of low-grade disciples could use.
Bai Yulan bit her lips lightly and said, “Thank you, Senior Brother Victor.”
“Then, Miss Bai, I’ll have to trouble you to follow me for the next few days. If you don’t mind, can you let me keep the key?”
Victor narrowed his eyes slightly. Although this method was a little petty, it was also for the sake of advancing to the foundation establishment realm without any errors. If Bai Yulan ran away, how is it possible for him to locate her?
Learning that Victor didn’t trust her, Bai Yulan was a little angry. She glared at Victor. In the end, she angrily rolled up her sleeves, took off the three interlocking bracelets on her hands, the red bracelet in the middle, and threw it to Victor, she said coldly, “The key is inside, in a black box.”
Victor took the bracelet with one hand and rubbed his nose awkwardly.
The bracelet still had Bai Yulan’s body warmth. He used his senses to detect it. It was a storage spiritual artifact, similar to a storage ring, and of high quality.
There were many colorful boxes in the bracelet. In the right corner, there was a small, black, exquisitely made hexagon box. It seemed to be made of metal.
After checking with his senses, he found that the material of the box was unusual, and it gave off an ancient aura. It probably was a genuine item. Anyway, he would be traveling with Bai Yulan for a few more days, so he was not afraid of her lying to him.
“Thank you for your understanding, Miss Bai.” Although Victor was a little embarrassed, he had no intention of letting Bai Yulan go.
Bai Yulan was so angry that she didn’t say anything. No one knew what she was thinking.
..
Qingshan Town.
After the chaos caused by Hu Zhi, Victor left, and the blue-clothed youth disappeared. However, it was still the middle of a beast tide.
What if another beast tide came?
Everyone was as anxious as ants on a hot pan. It wasn’t until noon the next day that Zhang Lingren and the others arrived at Qingshan Town on flying spirit beasts.
There were ten flying spirit beasts, and each flying spirit beast had two or three cultivators on it. A large group of cultivators flew over.
Qi Kai and the others were all stunned. What was going on?
When the beast tide was raging, there were more than 20 cultivators, and judging from the fluctuation of spiritual power, they were at least in the eighth level of the spirit gathering realm.
With such force, they clearly understood their motives. How could they appear in Qingshan Town?
“That… that person seems to be the sect master of the Qingyun Sect, Zhang Lingren, who has been in closed-door cultivation for many years?”
As the flying spiritual beast approached, Qi Kai looked at Zhang Lingren, who was standing on top of the flying spiritual beast and was instantly dumbfounded.
He had seen Zhang Lingren’s appearance in a portrait, but at such a time, shouldn’t the sect master of the Qingyun Sect stay at the Qingyun Sect?
“Miss Song Qianqian is here too?”A guard behind Qi Kai saw the young girl behind Zhang Lingren.
“Song Qianqian?”Qi Kai was shocked.
He was shocked when he saw Zhang Lingren just now, and he subconsciously ignored the person behind him.
Speaking of Song Qianqian.
Her identity was not ordinary. She was the beloved daughter of the great elder of the Qingyun Sect and the favored daughter of heaven who had joined the Illusionary Sword Peak of the Heavenly Sword Mountain. Why would she come to Qingshan Town at this time when the beast tide was raging?
While Qi Kai was bewildered, he heard Zhang Lingren ask with a smile, “Which one of you is in charge?”
“I’m Qi Kai, the commander of the guards of Qingshan Town.”
“So it’s Commander Qi. I’m Zhang Lingren of the Qingyun Sect. This time, I’ve brought 28 cultivation practitioners of the Qingyun Sect to Qingshan Town to resist the beast tide. Commander Qi, please help me make the necessary arrangements.”
“Entering Qingshan Town to resist the beast tide?”
Qi Kai was stunned for a full four to five breaths before he said in a flattered manner, “Welcome, Sect Master Zhang. On behalf of all the people of Qingshan Town, I thank Sect Master Zhang.”
Zhang Lingren said with a faint smile, “No need to be so polite. This is also a test for the disciples of our Qingyun Sect. Commander Qi, as far as I know, Victor should be in Qingshan town. Why don’t I see him?”
Zhang Lingren scanned the area with his perception just now, but he didn’t see Victor. This was a little unusual.
“This…”
Qi Kai’s expression immediately turned bitter. Victor’s identity was of great importance, and now that something had happened to him while Qi Kai was in charge, he was afraid that he wouldn’t have a good ending.
He braced himself and told her what had happened. When he heard that he was being chased by three to four spirit gathering realm cultivators and an early stage foundation establishment realm cultivator, Song Qianqian’s pretty face changed.
“Chased by an early foundation establishment realm cultivator from a sect?”
Song Qianqian’s heart instantly became anxious.
“Commander Qi, who are they? What are their features?” Zhang Lingren asked in a deep voice.
“I don’t know…”
Qi Kai shook his head in a daze. He could only try to describe the characteristics of these people. There were really no valuable suggestions.
It was not until Qi Kai mentioned that Bai Yulan had a faint crescent symbol on her sleeve that Zhang Lingren finally understood that the other party should be the person from the destroyed third-grade mystic realm sect, the Bright Moon Sect.
Therefore, Victor should have been involved in a dispute for power among the Bright Moon Sect’s disciples.
..
Throughout the day, Qingshan Town only encountered a few sporadic beast tides. The guards didn’t even need to take action, and the people of the Qingyun Sect took care of the beastes themselves.
There were more than 20 cultivators, and a cultivator in the eighth level of the spirit gathering realm alone was enough to take on dozens of soldiers.
Not to mention the other cultivators of the ninth, tenth, and a foundation establishment realm cultivator, Zhang Lingren.
These cultivators of the spirit gathering realm joined hands to kill the fourth-level fierce beast, and the beast tide disbanded itself.
However, although the beast tide was no longer a problem, the entire camp couldn’t relax. A thick layer of dark clouds shrouded the camp as Victor’s life and death remained unknown.
Commander Qi Kai and the masters of the big families in Qingshan town gradually understood one thing. Zhang Lingren had come all the way from the Qingyun Sect because Victor had sent a message to them.
Even the sect master made an appearance. One could imagine Victor’s status in the Qingyu Sect.
Qi Kai continuously organized the guards to search for Victor everywhere, but to no avail.
Song Qianqian had been worried all this time and did not have the mood to eat lunch.
Just like that, until evening, a small black dot appeared on the horizon. The guards immediately reported what they saw. It was a Flying Dragon Beast with wings, and on the dragon’s back, two figures were standing and one of them was Victor.
Victor had returned. Zhang Lingren, Song Qianqian, Qi Kai, and the others were all waiting.
As the Flying Dragon Beast flew closer and closer, Qi Kai let out a long breath, and Song Qianqian’s nervous face finally softened.
Meanwhile, Zhang Lingren was both happy and a little confused. Seeing Victor being so flamboyant and had calmly returned to his original path, the people who were chasing after him, could it be…
Song Qianqian did not have the time to think about it. Her heart, which had been hanging on for a day, was finally set at ease. She was ready to happily welcome him.
