My Sect System

Chapter 71 - Ambushed

Jian had collected everything in the tomb. And also all formations in the tomb were collected. As he had collected the tomb had started to crumble so he immediately teleported along with Zhou You. 

When both opened their eye after teleporting they say that they are standing at the top of a small mountain. Jian kept the core in the inventory. Both checked their position and saw that they were teleported on the opposite side of the entrance of the tomb.

Jian looked at the tomb. They were only able to see the mountain on which the tomb was built. As they were looking they saw the whole mountain started to crumble and had been destroyed.

Jian stood on the spot looking at the destroyed mountain. After few minutes he looked at Zhou You " Do you have a family?"

" No Master, I am an orphan " Zhou You was hesitating when Jian had asked him.

Jian frowned inside. He knew that Zhou You was lying but he didn't pressure him. So he nodded "Do you have things to take care of or you are ready to directly head to the sect?"

Zhou You became shocked because Jian had not told him about the sect. Zhou You thought that Jian was a rogue cultivator like him. "Master, which sect?"

" If you don't have any unfinished business then we can move and you will find out when you reach there." Jian smiled when he heard Zhou You but he will not explain to him he will show him so asked again. Zhou You shook his head indicating that he has no unfinished business.

Jian nodded then Jian lead both started to fly. They were taking a similar route but this time Jian had memories of the route so he was directly heading back to the sect.

They didn't know that as they were teleported they came to attention to an old man who was hiding in the mountains which were connected to the mountain on which they teleported. 

When the old man saw Jian and Zhou You, he became excited. He didn't go near them. He continued to hide and checked on them. He also witnessed the destruction of the tomb and also saw that Jian had kept something in his ring and was looking at Tombs direction as it crumble.

The old man couldn't believe his luck. He had not thought that his theory will be right and he will be able to see who took the inheritance. He saw that Jian and Zhou You have started to move. So he also started to move but he didn't fly at a high level more as he jumped between the trees so that his presence can be hidden. 

He was following Jian and Zhou You because he wanted to snatch the inheritance from Jian. And how he got to know that Jian had the inheritance? Because the old man was none other than Kong Peizhi.

When he was told what happened in the tomb. He had formed a hypothesis about what was going on. So had waited for confirmation. 

He had seen everyone leaving the tomb after Jian opened the entrance he also saw the entrance collapse. He was the one who was hiding when people were leaving.

Since he had on exploring the tomb. He was able to form a hypothesis that a person has gotten an inheritance and he knew that there were many hidden exits of the tomb so he thought for a while and went in search of that.

But while he was searching he was not able to find any hidden caves. He then moved to the top of the mountain to see from the high point. He was still not able to find anything. But as he was about to check other areas he was able to a light flash so he immediately hid. He saw that from the light two persons came.

He immediately knew they came out of the Tomb. He became excited and he started to plan on how to snatch the inheritance. He continued to follow them he planned to ambush Jian and Zhou You and at that time he will kill them because he thought that they didn't know he was following them.

He didn't know that his movements were seen by Jian. Because ad Jian had teleported he immediately had activated Star Gaze to check whether see if anyone was following. He had seen Kong Peizhi hiding. 

Jian didn't directly confront him because although he knew that Kong Peizhi was here inheritance he didn't want to attract attention by fighting neatly the tomb. He had started to fly away from the tomb. He had also planned to ambush Kong Peizhi when they are at a large distance from the tomb.

While both were thinking of ambushing each other. Zhou You didn't know about everyone. But while flying for an hour and when Kong Peizhi closed the distance between them he was able to feel that he was followed.

He immediately looked at Jian and saw that Jian was only looking at the front and was flying without any care. He wanted to tell Jian but before he could do anything he saw Jian descended at full speed.

He was able to sense Kong Peizhi because they were in the forest and he was able to feel the wood element in it. But when Kong Peizhi came near them he was like an abnormality in the forest so he was detected by Zhou You.

Jian was also able to feel that Kong Peizhi and started to move fast. He knew that the fight was going to break because he was able to tell that Kong Peizhi had similar plans as Jian. 

Jian was descending at full speed and Kong Peizhi was moving towards Jian. When he saw Jian coming at him at full speed he knew that he was discovered and immediately move towards Jian after taking out the sword.

Jian was also able to see that Kong Peizhi took out a weapon so he also didn't wait and took his Saber and both attacked each other in mid-air.

Kong Peizhi had attacked while thinking of injuring Jian. So when he attacked Jian he only fifty percent of his strength but when his sword and Jian's Saber collided Jian was thrown ten meters and Kong Peizhi also to a step.

Kong Peizhi got shocked not because he took a step back but when Jian was thrown.. He couldn't believe that such a weak person was able to get the inheritance.
