Chapter 57: Movements under the Moonlight
The leader of the Wild Blade Sect has entered the Tribulation Crossing Stage! ?
When Zhu Ling heard this, his heart was shocked, and a feeling of worry surged in his heart.
The Wild Blade Sect is the biggest enemy of the Nianling Sect!
There are eight states in the Riyan Dynasty. The Nianling Sect and the Huangdao Sect are the two most famous and powerful forces in "Kuyun State". Even the "Kuyun State Prefecture", the nominally largest force in Kuyun State, has to give enough respect and face to these two sects.
But for nearly two hundred years, the Nianling Sect has been suppressed by the Huangdao Sect.
The reason is simple, it's because the leader of the Huangdao Sect, Huang Li, seems to have obtained some kind of opportunity. Over the past two hundred years, his cultivation has been increasing, and his swordsmanship has become increasingly powerful.
Zhu Ling also knew that the reason why the Grand Elder had been sitting here in seclusion was actually to recuperate from his injuries.
Because a hundred years ago, the Supreme Elder and Huang Li, as representatives of the Nianling Sect and the Huangdao Sect, fought a great battle and destroyed a mountain at the border between the two sects.
That battle ended with the defeat of the Supreme Elder. Although he did not die, the sword energy entered his body and was extremely difficult to dispel. It took him decades to heal his injuries.
But perhaps it was because of this reason that he failed in his attempts to reach the Tribulation Stage many times.
"Is what you said true?"
Zhu Ling was already covered in cold sweat, but as the leader of a sect, he couldn't lose his composure now.
"Humph, Kuyun Prefecture has already sent the Sun Flame Emperor's handwritten congratulatory edict to that old man Huang Li. The Sun Flame Dynasty's sixth Tribulation Crossing Stage cultivator has appeared out of nowhere. Although the Imperial City is worried that the Wild Blade Sect may become more and more powerful in the future and the Prefecture may not be able to suppress it, they still have to congratulate him in the end."
The Supreme Elder has his own spies planted in the Wild Blade Sect, and although he is only half a step away from transcending the tribulation, he can also sense when someone breaks through the tribulation period and causes strange phenomena in heaven and earth.
After comparing the two sides and confirming that Huang Li had indeed entered the Tribulation Crossing Stage, there was no mistake.
"Even the Flame Emperor congratulated us that day..."
Zhu Ling silently wiped the cold sweat from his cheek.
It seems that the situation faced by the Nianling Sect has become increasingly severe!
Before the great war a hundred years ago, the forces of both sides could be said to be equally matched, but after the defeat of the Supreme Elder, the Nianling Sect has been constantly suppressed and cannibalized by the Huangdao Sect over the past hundred years. Some of its original supporters have also been snatched away by them, so that now the only cities within a few hundred miles radius that pay tribute to the Nianling Sect are a few cities.
Things are getting worse and worse.
If it weren't for the strong financial resources of the Nianling Sect, it would have long since fallen to second-rate status in Kuyun State.
But now his mortal enemy Huang Li has broken through to the Tribulation Period first, and he simply cannot imagine the outcome.
And this ending is most likely the destruction of the Nianling Sect!
"Grand Elder..." Zhu Ling said with a trembling voice, "If I can get an eighth-grade elixir from that senior, can you break through the Tribulation Stage?"
"Of course I can. Even if it's not the 'Breaking Tribulation Pill', I can refine the pure medicinal power of any eighth-grade pill and break through the tribulation without any problem!"
The Grand Elder nodded slightly, his tone quite affirmative.
"It will take at least a month for the Wild Power to stabilize its state. If the senior from Yunling City is willing to take out an eighth-grade elixir for his disciple... I, the Nianling Sect, will still have a chance!"
Zhu Ling gritted his teeth and said, "Please rest assured, Grand Elder, I will definitely get it!"
For the sake of Nianling Sect, he, as the sect leader, has to carefully consider what to do.
...
Yunling City, late at night.
Gu Heng was in the backyard, hanging out laundry to dry.
After taking a bath, the little girl Qin Yiyao just threw her clothes, skirts and underwear in the room without cleaning them up. Gu Heng had to pick them up and wash them himself.
As a master, he was actually more like a servant. He took care of the girl's three meals a day, made medicine for her, and helped her with body building. He was a young man in his early twenties, but now he lived like a young widower with a daughter.It's always better to live with someone rather than alone. Having more pretty sweethearts is also a joy to look at. Isn't that good?
He was busy here, but the street outside the clinic was already plunged into murderous intent!
On the almost dark street, two graceful figures were fleeing in front, and five or six murderous black shadows were following closely behind, chasing them non-stop.
Those were two young women running for their lives.
The speed of those black shadows was astonishingly fast, and they cooperated well with each other. They would pounce on the two figures when they were about to escape from their sight, and every time they attacked, they would use ruthless moves!
"Bang!"
With a dull thud, one of the women fell out, rolled twice on the ground, struggled for a while, but could not get up anymore. It was obvious that she had been seriously injured!
"Ha ha!"
Upon seeing this, the black shadows suddenly burst into excited laughter, accelerated their speed, and chased after them again. At the same time, the woman with blood oozing from the corner of her mouth raised her head, revealing a beautiful and simple face.
"How dare you run away and come to our Qingfeng Treasure Shop to eavesdrop on information? If we don't take your lives today, we will have a hard time explaining ourselves!"
The person who spoke was a man.
He was dressed in a black robe, had a gloomy face, and a hint of cruelty between his brows. It was obvious that he was not a good person.
He commands these murderous killers!
"Xiao Mu, hurry up and find a chance to go back to the treasure shop and tell Miss Nine about this!"
The woman who fell to the ground said anxiously.
"Don't talk about this, get up!"
The woman called Xiao Mu by her companions turned back and helped the seriously injured woman up. She was very stubborn and said, "If you were gone, the lady would be very sad."
"well..."
Upon hearing this, the seriously injured woman named Xiaoyu shook her head and sighed: "You really are..."
They didn't care about that and continued to support each other, trying hard to escape from the killers. However, they had not yet discovered that there was a large building at the end of the street. There were four big characters on the plaque... "Gu's Medical Clinic".
Gu Heng had just washed the clothes and hung them out to dry. He returned to the front hall and was about to do some accounting to see how many patients had come to see him today and how much money he had earned when he heard a sound getting closer and closer outside the front yard.
Chaos, screaming.
The little silver cat resting on top of the medicine cabinet raised its head silently - Su Jinxi looked outside the half-open door and wagged its tail.
There is murderous intent approaching.
But it's not specific to this clinic.
"Why are you still making so much noise at this late hour? Soon the neighbors will come out and scold you."
Gu Heng put down the account book helplessly, rubbed his forehead and walked out of the room.
He came to the front yard and opened the gate.
Just outside the door, on the ground, two young women were in a dishevel, with their clothes in disarray. One of them was pale and barely breathing, obviously having lost too much blood and was seriously injured.
"this..."
He looked at the two desperate young women, then at the dim street ahead.
Five masked men dressed in black and holding daggers also surrounded them.
"..."
Gu Heng's eyelids twitched violently.
What has happened to me that I shouldn't have seen?
