Chapter 1295: A Powerful Enemy’s Attack

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Everyone knew the White Tower Council was in Great Ming.

When Lan Xihe was still the Tower Master, the White Tower Council was the backbone of Great Ming. The White Tower Council kept chaos and even the black lotus domain at bay, and it kept the Black Tower Council in check. It was a famous force in the cultivation world.

Qin De was not in a hurry to act as he looked at the white tower. He had already thought about the next step for him to survive: guerilla warfare. Apart from that, he was not worried he would not be able to find a place to settle down. The world was so vast, after all. Although Venerable Masters were powerful, as long as he avoided them, there would be no problem at all.

“Since Pavilion Master Lu’s disciples came to take refuge here, there should be a runic passage somewhere. I’ll have to be careful…” Qin De muttered to himself. As long as he did run into Qin Renyue and Lu Zhou, there would be no problem at all. Naturally, he knew he had to be on guard against hidden experts as well.

Qin De flew forward before he came to a stop a few hundred meters away from the white tower. He looked at the dark sky. The fact that the white tower stood strong despite the imbalance showed how extraordinary the tower was.

The imbalance started a long time ago, but there were no signs of the Equalizers at all. It seemed like those people wanted to shake things up between humans and fierce beasts.

“I should be cautious and secretly investigate the situation first,” Qin De said to himself before he vanished from sight again.

…

At this time, Qin Renyue appeared near Cloud Mountain in the red lotus domain. He had come here using the Qin clan’s runic passage that connected to the snowy mountain near Cloud Mountain.

Qin Renyue’s expression was exceptionally grim as he looked at the twelve peaks around him. After a moment, he flew forward. The imbalance here was quite serious.

The oppressive dark clouds loomed over everything as flying beasts flew in the sky.

Qin Renyue no longer cared about anything. He used all his strength as he flew. In just a blink of an eye, he appeared near a peak that was overrun by fierce beasts. When he approached the peak, he saw a cultivator moving around. In just a flash, he appeared in front of that cultivator.

The cultivator was shocked by Qin Renyue’s sudden appearance. “Y-you… Y-you… W-who are you?!”

Qin Renyue asked, “How do I get to the Sky Martial Academy?”

Having been in a high position for a long time, it was difficult for Qin Renyu to change his manner of speech and attitude. It was easy to arouse people’s ire.

The young cultivator who did not want to offend anyone pointed at the 12 peaks and said, “It’s about 190 miles north of the Twelve Sects of Cloud Mountain…”

“That’s the Twelve Sects of Cloud Mountain?” Qin Renyue was slightly surprised.

Upon hearing these words, the cultivator grew wary. Although Cloud Mountain was not a top force, it was still rather famous in the red lotus domain. How could the person in front of him not know that? Hence, he said, “I have to go now…”

“Why are you in a rush?” Qin Renyue asked.

“The imbalance is really serious. I have to continue patrolling to make sure fierce beasts don’t invade the Twelve Sects of Cloud Mountain,” the cultivator replied.

“You’re a cultivator from the Twelve Sects of Cloud Mountain?”

“Uh…” The cultivator finally realized he had misspoken, giving away more information than he had intended to. He no longer dared to say anything and hurriedly turned to leave.

The cultivator only six leaves. In front of Qin Renyue, he was even weaker than an ant.

Qin Renyue flashed and appeared in front of the cultivator, who could not catch Qin Renyue’s movements at all. Since he was pressed for time, he did not explain anything to the cultivator. He grabbed the cultivator and said, “Let’s go.”

When the cultivator regained his senses, he saw trees, mountains, and rivers, speeding past him in a blur. He felt incredibly dizzy and disoriented.

This continued for 15 minutes before Qin Renyue came to a stop above the twelve peaks. He looked at the cultivator and asked, “This is Cloud Mountain?”

“…”

“I’m asking you a question…”

The cultivator was very dizzy, and he felt very nauseous.

Qin Renyue saw many flying beasts attacking Cloud Mountain at this moment. The disciples were trying to attack and defend against the flying beasts. A few of them were at the Thousand Realms Whirling stage. Near the highest peak, he saw 1,000 cultivators with two Birth Charts flying around. He shifted his gaze and saw the land underneath the cloud platform was charred as though there had been a great fire before.

Upon seeing the people of Cloud Mountain struggling, he sighed and said in a deep voice, “I’ll help you.”

The cultivator fell into a daze when he saw a green astrolabe appearing in front of Qin Renyue.

Qin Renyue pushed his astrolabe toward the top of Cloud Mountain. It grew and grew until it covered the sky, spanning thousands of meters.

The disciples of Cloud Mountain raised their heads and watched this scene in shock and disbelief.

Following that, beams of light from Qin Renyue’s Birth Chart Power shot down.

The astrolabe spun as it shot out of beams of light that killed the flying beasts and fierce beasts in Cloud Mountain.

In just a few moments, silence returned to Cloud Mountain.

“Which expert helped our Cloud Mountain?”

The elders hovered in the sky. The size of the astrolabe had exceeded their imaginations.

“Such a huge astrolabe!”

“Where is the Sect Master?”

“Sect Master went to the foot of the mountain to kill a beast king!”

“Quickly! Go and get the Sect Master!”

At this moment, the astrolabe in the sky shrank rapidly before flying back to Qin Renyue’s hand.

The elders led the disciples over to greet Qin Renyue.

“Thank you for your help, Senior.”

“There’s no need for that,” Qin Renyue said.

“May I ask for your name, Senior?” an elder asked.

At this time, Qin Renyue brought a piece of jade and tossed it over as he said, “If you’re in danger, crush this jade.” Then, he thought about it for a moment. These people definitely did not know who he was. Hence, he said, “I’m a friend of Pavilion Master Lu of the Evil Sky Pavilion.”

Upon hearing these words, the cultivator whom Qin Renyue brought here sighed in relief. He patted his chest and said, “As it turns out, you’re Pavilion Master Lu’s friend. You almost scared me to death!”

Qin Renyue thought to himself, ‘As expected, Brother Lu’s reputation in the red lotus domain is much better than mine in the red lotus domain.’

Qin Renyue thought that while he was here, it was best for him to use Lu Zhou’s name. Then, he said, “I have matters to attend to so I’ll visit another day. Farewell.”

Seeing Qin Renyue’s anxious expression, the elders of Cloud Mountain did not dare to stop and only bowed.

In just a flash, Qin Renyue vanished into the cloud, leaving the dumbfounded elders behind.

…

At the same time.

In the White Tower Council’s training hall.

“Sixth Senior Sister, I’ll have to trouble you,” Si Wuya said after recounting what happened to Ye Tianxian.

“There’s no need for these words between us. The Evil Sky Pavilion’s affairs are naturally mine as well,” Ye Tianxin said, “I’ve already ordered the members to guard the Runic Hall at all times and to pay attention to even the slightest changes.”

“Master was at the Unknown Land for half a year, and now, he’s in the green lotus domain. He won’t be back so soon. We must deal with Qin De cautiously,” Si Wuya said.

Ye Tianxin was puzzled. “Then, why are you the only one here? Moreover, Qin De won’t be able to get here from the red lotus domain so quickly.”

Si Wuya shook his head. “There’s a runic passage that connects to the green lotus domain at the peak of the snowy mountain near Cloud Mountain. Hence, there’s a possibility they have a runic passage here as well. As for the others, I sealed their auras and told them to hide in the underground prison in Sky Martial Academy. Qin De is definitely worried about running into Venerable Master Qin and master so he won’t stay in the red lotus domain longer than necessary.”

Si Wuya paused briefly before he said, “I’ll need to trouble the White Tower Council to cooperate with me.”

“Did you tell everyone to gather at the Runic Hall so we can leave at a moment’s notice?”

Si Wuya nodded and said, “We have two options. First, we can go to the Unknown Land from here and seek Lu Wu’s help. Second, we can return to the Sky Martial Academy. After all, Qin De has no idea how many runic passages I have in the Sky Martial Court.”

“…”

Was this not like playing hide-and-seek?

There were so many runic passages in the Sky Martial Academy that it would take Qin De more than half a day at least to search for all of them.
