“Qin De!” Qin Renyue roared. However, the projection had already disappeared. He was both angry and worried. He was angry that Qin De had degenerated to this extent, and he worried Qin De would act recklessly. After all, with Qin De’s strength, it was too easy for Qin De to kill. After a moment, he turned to look at Lu Zhou and discovered that Lu Zhou’s expression remained the same as though this had nothing to do with him. He said, “Brother Lu, this…”

“Even if a sick dog could leap over a high wall if it was cornered. A rabbit would also bite when it’s desperate,” Lu Zhou remarked.

Qin Renyue sighed. “I really didn’t expect this of Qin De.”

Human hearts were hard to read. Sometimes, even an old couple who had been together for decades could turn on each other and kill each other. It was not surprising that Qin De, who was filled with grievances, turned out this way.

After a moment, Lu Zhou asked curiously, “He once had 18 Birth Charts?”

Qin Renyue calmed down before he shook his head and said, “In the past, Qin De and I addressed each other as brothers. At that time, there had never been a Venerable Master in the Qin clan. Hence, Qin De and I led thousands of disciples to the Unknown Land. It took all the power of our clan to finally take down a beast emperor. Initially, the life heart was supposed to be given to him. However, by then, he had lost one Birth Chart. His situation was dire at that time, and we could not find any mystic profound grass to help him. In the end, the elder council decided to give me the life heart. It took me ten years before I successfully activated 18 Birth Charts, passed the Birth Trial, and became a Venerable Master.”

After taking a breath, Qin Renyue continued to say, “At that time, I regarded Qin De as my confidant and my right-hand man. Hence, I helped him become the first elder of the clan. He was only below one person and stood above thousands of people. I didn’t expect… didn’t expect…”

Qin Renyue sighed as he recalled the past.

Lu Zhou said, “This is something you have to deal with.”

Qin Renyue nodded. Then, he turned around and asked Ye Wei, “Elder Ye, can I borrow Yannan’s runic passage?”

“Of course,” Ye Wei replied.

Qin Renyue said to his people, “I’m going to clean up the sect.”

Qin Renyue’s people bowed in unison. “We’ll wait for Venerable Master’s return.”

With that, Ye Wei quickly led Qin Renyue to the runic passage.

At this time, Lu Zhou looked at Si Wuya.

Si Wuya asked, puzzled, “Master, why didn’t you stall Qin De?”

Lu Zhou asked, “Where’s Qin De now?”

“The last time I saw him was yesterday at the Sky Martial Academy. I think he should be nearby. I’m afraid he intends to hold us hostage out of desperation to protect himself,” Si Wuya replied with a worried expression on his face.

Lu Zhou said, “Bring some people to the White Tower Council and seal all the passage.”

“Zhao Hong Fu and Eighth Junior Brother went to the yellow lotus domain. I’m afraid we won’t be able to seal the passages.”

“Then destroy them.”

“I’ll get to it immediately.”

With that, the projection cut off as well.

With so many runic passages, they needed to move immediately. No matter how profound their cultivation bases were, it was still a race against time.

…

Si Wuya destroyed all the runic passages in the Sky Martial Academy before he led everyone to the White Tower Council.

…

Two hours later.

As expected, Qin De appeared above the Sky Martial Academy. He scoffed coldly as he looked at the empty and slightly desolate-looking place.

“They ran really fast…”

Qin De turned and looked in the direction of Cloud Mountain. Initially, he had planned on acting against Cloud Mountain. However, he recalled that Qin Moshang had died there and the runic passage that was connected to the green lotus domain was located near Cloud Mountain. This meant that there was a high possibility that Qin Renyue would arrive at the runic passage. Hence, he could only dismiss this idea.

After a moment, he muttered to himself, “The golden lotus domain’s Evil Sky Pavilion?”

However, he was not sure if there were runic passages here. If there were none, it meant that he could only go to the golden lotus domain by flying over the Endless Ocean or travel through the Black Water Mystic Cave. This would take too much time.

At this moment, a group of people appeared in the Sky Martial Academy.

Qin De immediately waved his hand.

Countless energy seals flew out, catching them.

These people were just ordinary cultivators. Faced with Qin De, they were no different from ants.

Qin De asked, “Where did Qin Naihe go?”

“I… I don’t know…”

“My patience is limited. Where are the runic passages?” Qin De asked again.

“Mr. Seventh destroyed all the runic passages,” the cultivator said, terrified.

“Destroyed?” Qin De frowned as Si Wuya’s figure appeared in his mind. ‘What a cunning young man.’

“Where did they go?” Qin De asked.

“W-white… White Tower Council…” the cultivator said in a trembling voice.

Swoosh!

Qin De loosened his grip, letting the cultivator fall. “Consider yourself lucky that I know of a runic passage to the white lotus domain.”

Qin De flew away, leaving ripples in his wake.

…

An hour later.

Qin De appeared in a quiet forest. He waved his sleeve lightly before a wave of energy swept away the dried leaves on the ground. With that, a circular runic passage appeared before his eyes.

He wasted no time and stepped into the circle and activated the runic passage.

…

15 minutes later.

Qin De found himself standing in a snowy land. The weather was rather gloomy; dark clouds hid the sky as flying beasts occupied the sky.

After surveying his surroundings, he turned around and launched a palm seal at the runic passage.

Boom!

The runic passage dimmed immediately.

In order to prevent it from being repaired, Qin De struck at it another few more times, completely destroying it, before he left.

…

Another hour passed.

Qin De saw a group of white lotus cultivators surrounding a beast king that was charging around.

The cultivators’ bodies were all riddled with wounds.

With that, Qin De manifested his astrolabe. The astrolabe shot out a beam of energy that swiftly and accurately pierced the beast king.

The beast king could not withstand this blow and fell to the ground immediately.

Upon seeing this, the white lotus cultivators who had just survived a disaster greeted Qin De as though they had seen their savior. “Thank you for saving us, Senior!”

Qin De said with a smile, “There’s no need to thank me. Fierce beasts are enemies of humans, after all. It’s only right for me to help my fellow humans.”

The cultivators were greatly moved by these words.

Qin De asked, “May I know where’s the White Tower Council?

“The White Tower Council? May I ask why Senior is going to the White Tower Council?” one of the white lotus cultivators asked.

How could Qin De be foiled by this group of cultivators? He had long thought of an excuse. He replied with a smile, “The imbalance is getting more and more serious so I just want to do my part and help out.”

“I see,” one of the cultivators said, “I admire Senior’s sense of duty! The White Tower Council is located 3,000 miles east of this place. It’s located in a remote area where many fierce beasts roam.”

“Thank you,” Qin De said before he vanished in just a blink of an eye.

The cultivators’ eyes were brimming with admiration as they watched Qin De leave.

…

Meanwhile, Qin De flew at top speed. With 17 Birth Charts, it took him half a day to arrive at the White Tower Council.

The white tower that towered past the dark clouds was extremely eye-catching. It stood in the midst of this snowy land, looking like it was holding up the sky.

Qin De smiled. “White Tower Council… Let’s see where else you can hide…”
