192 A Chaotic Situation (1)

Time passed slowly, and the situation at Xiaoqian Mountain looked like it was not going to improve any time soon. Jiang Ming decided to settle down in Hongyang City.

Every few days, he would go to the Blue Sunshine Mountain Range to bitterly cultivate. He took turns practicing the Fire Metal Sword Technique and the Thunderclap Technique and his strength also quietly and steadily increased.

When he was tired of cultivating in the mountains, he would return to the city to rest, try the new dishes in Fuhai Restaurant, and talk about life with his new friends. His days were relaxed and happy. In his spare time, Jiang Ming would also refine some medicinal pills and sell them to the people in the city to earn some spirit stones.

Jiang Ming’s life was long. Even if he saved one spirit stone a day, he would have a huge fortune if he were to save for thousands of years.

!!

Occasionally, Jiang Ming could also hear the news from Xiaoqian Mountain. It seemed that the Fire Lotus Valley and the Qingyin Pavillion had only sent Foundation Establishment Realm and Qi Refinement Realm cultivators to attack the mountain. The Golden Core Realm cultivators were yet to be seen.

Jiang Ming was not in a hurry. He would stay here for as long as he needed.

Jiang Ming had stayed in the mountain for several days this time. He was tired of eating demonic beast meat. Therefore, he returned to the city to visit Fuhai Restaurant.

However, as soon as he entered Fuhai Restaurant, Jiang Ming saw a familiar man with messy hair. He was having a meal.

“Zhong Gui? Why are you here?”

Jiang Ming sat at the same table with him and asked in amusement.

Zhong Gui was an old hand in the Plant Hall. His Misty Rain Technique was at the Profound Realm, and his status in the Plant Hall was quite high.

Jiang Ming still remembered that before he left, Zhong Gui said that he had the essence of the path of morality and that he could stay in Xiaoqian Mountain. He also said that no one could do anything to him and that he might even make a fortune in the chaos.

Zhong Gui was also surprised to see Jiang Ming. It was a wonderful thing to meet an acquaintance thousands of miles away.

He took a big gulp of wine and sighed heavily. He lowered his voice and said, “Hey, don’t f*cking say it. Xiaoqian Mountain is a mess now. I saw that the situation was getting worse. So, I sneaked out. Along the way, I even encountered some enemies. Fortunately, I had saved a lot of spirit stones over the years and asked Hall Master Huang to help me buy a Spirit Sword Shuttle. Thus, I escaped.”

The Spirit Sword Shuttle did not have any other amazing characteristics. However, it flew fast. Thus, the Spirit Sword Shuttle had become the favorite escape tool of many rich cultivators because of this feature.

Jiang Ming curiously asked, “Didn’t you say that if you stayed at home, you would not encounter any trouble? Could something have happened?”

“There were no big issues at first. Although the disciples of the Fire Lotus Valley and the Qingyin Pavillion robbed and killed some individual cultivators outside the mountain, they didn’t cause any trouble in Xiaoqian Mountain except for attacking the main peak. After all, they had to manage Xiaoqian Mountain after occupying it. No one would destroy their own homes for no reason. In Xiaoqian Mountain, there were some people who took advantage of the chaos, and some bloody incidents took place. However, the Plant Hall has Hall Master Huang, who is in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm, in charge, so no one is stupid enough to come and find trouble with them!”

Zhong Gui spoke slowly before he changed the topic. “However, a few days ago, things suddenly started to go wrong. A Foundation Establishment Realm individual cultivator mysteriously died in the middle of the night. Then, even the Pillfire Hall’s base camp was ambushed, and another Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator was killed in a single blow. Many people from the Pillfire Hall had gathered in their base for safety. However, they were almost wiped out that day, and who knows how many people died!”

Jiang Ming was shocked. “The Pillfire Hall earns a lot of spirit stones from refining pills. Their base camp is impregnable. There are all kinds of protective spirit arrays and even a few Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators guarding it. Other than the four major forces, who can break in?”

Although Xiaoqian Mountain was a place for individual cultivators, the heritage of these halls had been passed down from generation to generation. Otherwise, they would not have become one of the four major forces. In terms of strength, they could definitely crush the other cultivation sects in the Litfire Region. Who could be so brutal as to break into the Pillfire Hall?

Zhong Gui’s gaze was also a little solemn. “Since that day, the people of Xiaoqian Mountain have been in a state of panic. A few days later, there was news that a Golden Core Realm sect called the Divine Eye Sect outside the Litfire Region had gotten involved and wanted to make a fortune in the chaos! The Divine Eye Sect has a bad reputation. They follow the law of the jungle, and their disciples are all ruthless. They don’t want to take over Xiaoqian Mountain. Thus, they don’t care about anything. They rob and kill as they please, and Xiaoqian Mountain is in chaos.

“Is the Plant Hall okay?” Jiang Ming listened for a moment and quickly asked. After all, he had a good relationship with Feng He and the others.

Zhong Gui smiled awkwardly. “To be honest, I don’t know either. As soon as I heard about the Divine Eye Sect, I ran away. I didn’t even return to the Plant Hall.”

Jiang Ming was speechless.

“However, on the way, I saw a pale yellow sword light flying across the sky. It was as fast as a meteor. It’s probably Hall Master Huang,” Zhong Gui added.
