Bang –

The imprisoning space shattered. The common-looking middle-aged man’s complexion changed. He clearly recognized Qin Yu.

Damn it! Was this all a ruse? But the grieving and mourning appearances of the Hidden Fog Sect people shouldn’t have been a lie!

There was no time to ponder what had happened. He took a deep breath and lifted his hands into the air. A rich black light erupted from his palms.

In the next moment, with a muffled crashing sound, the middle-aged man’s eyes flew open. His palms and arms cracked and shattered as he was sent flying away.

“Teacher!” Yun Die cried out loud, tears flowing down her face.

Qin Yu nodded. He said, “I will send him away first.”

The middle-aged man rolled as he struck the ground, tearing open a long gully in the earth. His face was extremely pale and he cursed those that gathered information for the Dark Parliament in his heart.

Holy shit, your strength is supposed to be ordinary isn’t it!? But that single punch was almost enough to kill me! That is definitely the strength of a proper Great Dao level master!

This isn’t good. I have to run, otherwise I’ll die here!

He tumbled around once more, pushing out the strength that entered his body. Then, he began to fade away like a shadow, disappearing from sight.

“Humph!”

A cold cough echoed out. Like a shocking thunderclap, blood gushed out from every orifice of the middle-aged man’s head. He felt as if a mountain had struck him from above. With a loud sound ringing in his mind, he couldn’t summon any other thought.

In the next moment his neck tightened; someone had already grabbed hold of him. The middle-aged man didn’t doubt that the five strong fingers holding onto him would only need to use a bit of strength to wrench his neck.

“Forgive me my lord! This lowly one mistakenly thought you had died so I was only acting according to the bet. I never had any intention of offending you!”

As Qin Yu thought, this person was from the Dark Parliament.

Beneath his black robes, Qin Yu’s expression changed. He could already feel a large number of auras heading his way.

The Hidden Fog Sect people were coming.

Strength burst out from his palm. The middle-aged man spat out a mouthful of blood before he was tossed away.

“Screw off!”

The middle-aged man crawled up from the ground in distress. He turned into a shadow that faded away.

Moments later, with Hu Fu leading the way, the Hidden Fog Sect people arrived. As they saw the black-robed figure in the messy courtyard, their eyes flew open.

“Mister!?”

Qin Yu turned around, his expression indifferent. “I only returned late, and yet you all take care of my disciple like this?”

If he had been a step slower, Yun Die would have been taken away. The consequences could be imagined.

A cold wind blew through. As long as anyone was swept over with Qin Yu’s eyes, they froze up.

The Hidden Fog Sect people weren’t even able to feel any joy before they were suddenly drowned in unease and nervousness.

Hu Fu drew in a deep breath. He bowed and said, “Mister, I thought you had already…so I accidentally neglected Miss Yun Die for a moment. This is my mistake! Luckily, mister returned in time and Miss Yun Die wasn’t injured. The Hidden Fog Sect is willing to offer a generous gift as an apology. I hope that mister can forgive us!”

When he finished speaking, he pleadingly looked over. “Miss Yun Die, this was a mistake on my part. I ask that you forgive me and say some words on my sect’s behalf.”

With his status as the Sect Master, he had lowered himself sufficiently.

Clearly, with the ‘death and rebirth’ of mister, hope had returned to the Hidden Fog Sect. He couldn’t allow any other accidents to occur.

Yun Die wiped her tears away. “Teacher, please don’t blame Sect Master Hu Fu and the others. It was I who ran out…”

Qin Yu was silent for several breaths of time. He coldly said, “This gift must satisfy Yun Die!”

Hu Fu was ecstatic. “Yes, yes!”

He gratefully bowed towards Yun Die.

Then, Hu Fu started to speak but hesitated. Although mister had come back, he didn’t know if he had obtained the resurrection lily.

This was something that concerned the fate of the Hidden Fog Sect!

Qin Yu lightly said, “I have not obtained the resurrection lily.”

Hu –

With this, Hu Fu’s face drained of blood.

Looking at him, Qin Yu coldly coughed. “Immediately prepare the other materials. I will begin the treatment in two hours!”

It was like rising from the abyss to the heavens. Hu Fu’s face flushed red. Only then did he discover that his robes were soaked wet with sweat.

Of course, he didn’t dare to complain that Qin Yu was intentionally scaring him. Hu Fu bowed repeatedly as he led the overjoyed Hidden Fog Sect people away.

With no more outsiders, Yun Die couldn’t endure it any longer. She threw herself at Qin Yu and held onto him as she cried.

Teacher was alive! He was still living!

Her tears soon drenched his black robes. Qin Yu revealed an embarrassed look. Yun Die was not only beautiful, but her figure was domineering. In her excitement she had thrown all caution to the wind. She held onto him extremely tightly, so much so that he could feel every curve of her body.

“Cough cough! That’s enough. Teacher is fine and I don’t have much time right now. I need to obtain the resurrection lily as soon as possible.”

As expected, this topic diverted Yun Die’s attention. She looked up. “T…teacher…you…really haven’t…obtained the resurrection lily…”

Qin Yu nodded. “Yes. But, I have my own methods. Straighten yourself first.”

Yun Die was sobered up by this news. She glanced at his robes that were drenched with tears and blushed before taking several steps back. “Teacher, what method do you have?”

Qin Yu thought for a moment. “It should work…stay here and don’t allow others to disturb me.”

Looking at him enter the room, Yun Die was left stunned and dumbfounded. What did teacher mean by ‘it should work’?

Teacher, if you cannot obtain the resurrection lily, this beautiful disciple of yours will be taken away!

You have to try harder!

…

The middle-aged man from the Dark Parliament fled in distress. After running far away from the Hidden Fog Sect’s station and making sure that Qin Yu wasn’t chasing him, it was only then that he relaxed. But, the cautiousness he had gained through years of training didn’t allow him to be careless. He made numerous circles and only after using a multitude of methods to confirm that he wasn’t being tracked did he arrive at the contact point.

This was an ordinary courtyard. A young couple lived inside. The middle-aged man arrived at an inopportune time; the two people just happened to be in bed making love.

But the two parties only paused for a brief moment. The couple immediately stood up and faced the middle-aged man. Not caring about their exposed bodies, they rolled up the bedding to reveal a pitch black entrance into the ground.

The middle-aged man jumped inside. The young couple put down and tidied the bedding. Then, they hugged each other and laid down on the bed once more, beginning their heated and passionate lovemaking again. From beginning to end, only a few breaths of time had passed, as if nothing had happened just now.

Pa –

With a light sound, an illuminating array formation lit up the darkness. The light sprinkled through every corner of the simple underground chamber.

On top of a black square table, there was a single-line contact array formation. When the middle-aged man poured in his magic power, the runes of the array formation began to light up.

Soon, a projection appeared in midair. The middle-aged man fell to his knees and respectfully said, “This subordinate greets the Protector!”

“Mm, what is it?”

“Ning Qin has returned. I was just about to take Yun Die when I was stopped by him. Moreover, there seem to be errors in the information that the Dark Parliament collected about his cultivation. At the very least, Ning Qin is a Great Dao boundary master, and his soul force is even more amazing!” He thought back to the cold humph that interrupted him when he was dissolving into shadows. It had struck him like a thunderclap, wiping out his thoughts.

The projection was silent for several breaths of time, “How did you escape?”

The middle-aged man truthfully said, “I did not escape. It was Ning Qin who let me go.”

“Mm, it seems he still has some self-awareness.” The projection paused before continuing, “You know the rules. Someone will soon come to contact you. Hand things over and leave Dragon City.”

The middle-aged man respectfully bowed.

Pa –

The projection shattered.

The middle-aged man glanced around at this place that had been the contact point for many decades. There was a complex look on his face as well as a bit of relief.

He turned and walked over to the transmission array in the corner of the chamber.

Hum –

The array formation activated and the middle-aged man vanished.

The illuminating array formation dimmed down and the underground chamber returned to darkness. If things went as expected, this place wouldn’t be used for another hundred years.
