Chapter 2023 True Appearance
The battle of mysterious powers at Yumen Pass was like a heavy stone pressing on everyone's heart, causing them to feel an invisible sense of urgency.
Qin Sang wondered if one of them might be Master Tianyue, but after waiting for a long time, there was no news. There was no news from Master Tianyue, so it might really be an accident.
But if an accident happened at this time, does it mean that the situation in Fengju and Yumen has changed in an unknown way? Will it have an impact on the next plan to obtain the sword?
Qin Sang had no idea and could only continue to concentrate on planning a retreat.
Soon it was time for the next meeting. They shortened the interval to three months. Frequent meetings in the vast Fengju Yumen would waste a lot of time on the way back and forth. They had to do so because of the drastic changes in the situation.
Among the three escape routes, one of them is to use the records provided by the Xin family cultivators to explore. Maybe the Xin family can bring back valuable clues, so Qin Sang will meet with the Xin family in person every time.
Before the agreed day arrived, Qin Sang took Gu Ya and flew to the edge of Fengju Yumen.
After the battle of Yumen Pass, Qin Sang had always kept Gu Ya, Zhuque and other monsters by his side, and now he was preparing to send Gu Ya out of Fengju Yumen.
They soon arrived at an exit and could vaguely see the yellow sand outside. Qin Sang used the Thunder Escape Technique, turned into a flash of lightning and escaped into the yellow sand, flying to the vicinity of Yumen Pass.
After entering the city, he found that it was indeed much quieter than when he first arrived. It had become a desolate city. The city lord had not shown up for a long time and chaos was frequent in the city.
Almost all major chambers of commerce were closed, and even some sects and families had relocated their entire clans. Qin Sang arrived at the Five Elements Alliance's headquarters and saw that the Five Elements Alliance had withdrawn all its manpower, leaving only a talisman in the formation to explain the situation.
Qin Sang frowned. Why were these forces so pessimistic about the future situation? Could there be some unknown change?
"This is the letter I bought to conceal my identity. After you crush it, the Beast Taming House will send someone to pick you up. Have them take you to Silver City to settle down and wait for my news."
Qin Sang changed his appearance, took out a jade talisman with a spirit eagle engraved on it and crushed it, then took out a few spirit talismans and handed them to Gu Ya, "These are the thunder talismans I made myself. With these thunder talismans to protect you, almost no one among the cultivators in the Spiritualization Stage can threaten you, and it can help you practice peacefully."
"Senior, won't you go with me? Can I stay and help you?" Gu Ya felt uneasy when she saw Qin Sang's actions as if he was leaving his last words.
I finally met a senior who ascended from the lower world, is there going to be another accident?
Qin Sang shook his head. "This is just in case. Fengju and Yumen are undercurrents. If you run into danger, I may not be able to protect you. You wait patiently in Yincheng. Even if something really happens in Fengju and Yumen, I will entrust someone else to find you."
"But……"
Gu Ya opened her mouth to speak, but seeing that Qin Sang had made up his mind, she did not dare to say anything more and could only take the thunder talisman silently.
After waiting for a while, the people from the Beast Taming House finally arrived.
"The business of the Beast Taming House is booming recently, right?" Qin Sang asked the cultivator who claimed to be the deacon of the Beast Taming House.
The steward smiled and said, "Our sect has some connections in various places in Duizhou. Even those big forces and big sects will hire people from our sect to lead the way. The higher-ups have transferred all the people from nearby, but it's still a bit stretched..."
Once the situation becomes chaotic, it will be an opportunity for the Beast Taming House to make a fortune.
"Yumen Pass is in such chaos, with everyone fleeing. Is it really caused by the fight between powerful men outside the city?" Qin Sang asked.
"This... I am weak and of low rank, and I don't know the inside story. But according to my observation, most people are just going with the flow. Those who stay in the city all hope for stability, and those who dare to take risks have already entered Fengju Yumen. The fight between the powerful has caused panic among the people, so it is only natural for them to leave the city to avoid it," said the deacon.
Qin Sang nodded secretly. The city was in such chaos and no one came out to take charge of the situation. It was very likely that the strong men in Yumen Pass had entered Fengju Yumen.
"She is my junior, so make sure to send her to Yincheng safely," Qin Sang gestured to Gu Ya to go with the deacon.
The steward bowed and said, "Don't worry, senior. We will definitely live up to your trust. There are also a group of fellow Taoists who want to go to Silver City. It's just right for us to go together. Fellow Taoist Gu invites you."
……
After seeing Gu Ya off, Qin Sang returned to Fengju Yumen and reunited with the Xin family.
As soon as he saw the Xin family, Qin Sang felt that the atmosphere was a little different. The faces of several Xin family cultivators were filled with joy, and the previous depression was swept away.
Even Pei Gongsheng's expression had eased a lot and was no longer so gloomy, but when he saw Qin Sang, his eyes turned cold.
"found it?"
Qin Sang looked towards Luan Che.
There is no need to guess, you know there is only one possibility that can turn the Xin family's sorrow into joy.
Steward Luo flew over and said, "Reporting to Elder Qin, Xin Kui and the others' talisman fire has changed, but we cannot be completely sure yet. We need the young master to go and confirm it in person."
"I have been searching for nearly eight years and finally found it. It was not easy. It seems that you are all waiting for me. In that case, let's set off."
Qin Sang quickly boarded the Luan carriage and sat cross-legged behind the jade table.
The Luan chariot shook slightly, leaving a meteor-like trail in the air. Its aura gradually subsided and it sped away in silence.
Qin Sang could see all kinds of magical illusions passing by. He stared for a moment and looked towards the quiet room. "Young Master Xin, can you tell me what exactly you need me to refine?"
Young Master Xin bowed slightly behind the curtain and said, "As long as we confirm the location, we will find it soon and inform Elder Qin when the time comes. Please be patient, Elder Qin."
Pei Gongfu laughed, "Elder Qin, don't you even have this little bit of patience? I have been deceived by them for many years."
These words sounded like a mockery of Qin Sang, but also like a wake-up call to him.
Qin Sang's heart moved. Young Master Xin's behavior was indeed very strange.
Young Master Xin is definitely not a fool. It is possible to ask him to check and balance each other with Pei Gongsheng, but Qin Sang doesn't believe that Young Master Xin dares to harm both of them at the same time.
How could a cultivator of the Void Refining Realm fall into a trap so easily? What’s more, two of them are plotting against him together. Aren’t they afraid of playing with fire and getting burned?
However, Pei Gongfeng is not a magnanimous person. He has been able to tolerate the Xin family for so long. Either the Xin family has some means that make him afraid, or there are huge interests behind them that make him willing to tolerate.
Even though Qin Sang didn't want to get involved in this mess, he was accustomed to analyzing the words and actions of these people to be prepared.
Just as Qin Sang was lost in thought, silence returned to the Luan carriage. After traveling for a while, they finally found the Xin family cultivators who stayed behind.
"See Young Master!"
The monks of Xin family came forward one after another to pay their respects.
The monk named Xin Kui stepped forward and pointed to a colorful ball of light. "Young Master, please look. It was near there before that the talisman fire showed a slight change. Finally, we determined that the source of the change came from inside the strange light. Since we don't know if there is any danger inside, we dare not act on our own. Please let the young master make the decision."
Young Master Xin nodded, took out a yellow talisman, and steered the Luan Chariot to the front of the strange light.
'Snapped! '
A ball of red fire appeared behind the curtain, and then a hint of green gradually appeared.
Everyone looked at the curtain nervously, only to hear Young Master Xin let out a long sigh and said with a hint of excitement, "This is the place!"
As soon as these words were spoken, cheers broke out.
"Elder Qin, Senior Pei, please wait here for a moment. I will go and fetch the other Xin family cultivators. Luo Bo, you stay and lead Xin Kui and others to explore the way first..."
Young Master Xin acted decisively and immediately made all necessary arrangements, then drove the Luan chariot away into the air.
Steward Luo coordinated from the inside, deployed troops and divided the Xin family monks into several teams. They formed a battle formation, summoned their own magic weapons, and tentatively entered the strange light, advancing and retreating in moderation.
Qin Sang and Pei Gongsheng had nothing to do and had no intention of taking action, so they stood aside and watched the Xin family cultivators take action.
"These strange lights don't look very dangerous. Why don't you take action, Elder Qin, so as not to waste too much time here?" Pei Gongsheng said in a voice transmission.
"Qin is an outsider, so it should be Pei Gongsheng who takes action, right? Besides, Qin only agreed to refine weapons for Young Master Xin, and other matters have nothing to do with Qin," Qin Sang said lightly, not moved at all.
"Is it?"
Pei Gongfeng said meaningfully, "When Fellow Daoist Qin sees the secret of the Xin family, I wonder if he will be able to remain indifferent like he is now?"
"Oh? Qin is curious. I wonder what secret it is that is worth the Xin family's effort. It seems that Pei Gongfeng knows it very well. Could it be a huge treasure? If there is the Dihua Jade Vine, Qin will definitely not be able to hold back and will have to ask Young Master Xin for a piece of it," Qin Sang looked at Pei Gongfeng with interest.
"Pei is just guessing! Elder Qin has just learned that the young master of the Xin family is very tight-lipped."
Pei Gongsheng's eyes flashed and he laughed.
He was suspicious. Could it be that Elder Qin really knew nothing and was simply invited here to refine the weapon?
Qin Sang could guess a little about Pei Gongfeng's suspicion, but he didn't say much. This was the situation that Young Master Xin deliberately created. Pei Gongfeng already regarded him as an opponent. In this case, explanation was useless. Hearing is false, seeing is true.
As they gradually went deeper into the strange light, Young Master Xin also brought the others back. After everyone was together, they took turns to form a formation and clear the way, speeding up a bit.
At first, there were only scattered pieces of strange light, which intertwined and had mixed colors. As they went deeper, the strange light gradually condensed and the colors gradually became purer.
You can see beams of light of varying sizes shooting out from the inside, densely packed. Some are harmless to humans and animals, while others harbor hidden dangers that could affect the entire system.
After walking for a distance, Qin Sang seemed to sense something. His expression changed slightly. He glanced at Pei Gongfeng and saw that Pei Gongfeng was calm and composed.
At the same time, there was a sudden commotion ahead.
At the front of the battle formation, the incarnation monk named Xin Kui was leading the way. He had a jade crown on his head, which glowed like tassels. He possessed the power of protection and helped him escape danger many times.
Just now, Xin Kui used the jade crown to disperse several strange lights, and without any warning, a burst of blood suddenly appeared on his left shoulder, and a bloody hole suddenly appeared.
Something pierced through his shoulder, leaving only a hole. Everyone was shocked, and before they could react, Xinkui's abdomen was pierced again.
"Invisible light! Retreat quickly!" Young Master Xin shouted.
Xin Kui retreated without hesitation.
Suffering along with Xin Kui were the two Nascent Soul cultivators closest to him, one of whom unfortunately had a vital point pierced.
With Xin Kui's cultivation, these two small wounds made him sweat profusely and endure unimaginable pain. The man whose vitals were pierced shook violently, and his breath rapidly declined.
Butler Luo flashed over, took out a jade bottle, and stuffed all the pills in the bottle into the man's mouth, "Quickly practice Qigong and regulate your breathing!"
The man mustered up his remaining strength, sat cross-legged in meditation, his expression still twitching from time to time, and he managed to save his life.
"Hiss! Such a mysterious and violent power!"
Xin Kui forced out the remaining strength in the wound and said with lingering fear.
The Xin family stopped and discussed for a while before continuing on their journey. However, after walking for a while, some people were seriously injured one after another. This was the result of the timely treatment provided by Butler Luo.
The danger came from the invisible, mixed with various colors of light, making it hard to guard against. If this continued, before they could find a place, all the Xin family cultivators would be killed in this light area.
Faced with this situation, Young Master Xin had to make a decision and said in a deep voice: "All Nascent Soul cultivators, retreat!"
"This……"
Butler Luo's eyes flashed with hesitation, and he couldn't help but look behind him.
At the end of the team, Qin Sang and Pei Gongsheng had a tacit understanding. They followed them leisurely, one on the left and one on the right, waiting for them to lead the way.
Butler Luo believed that if either of them took action, the current difficulties would be solved. But the two had no intention of taking action and watched the Xin family fall into crisis.
For this trip, the Xin family specially refined a formation diagram, and the Xin family cultivators worked together to set up the formation and practiced the Xin family's skills at the same time, which allowed them to launch several fierce attacks. Although it was impossible to kill the Void Refining cultivators, it was also the confidence that gave them the courage to face Qin Sang and Pei Gongsheng.
The formation is huge in scale, and these Nascent Soul cultivators are indispensable. Once they are asked to retreat, the number of people will be drastically reduced, which is equivalent to the Xin family losing a trump card before finding the target.
Since the formation cannot be retracted once it is deployed, and it is an attacking formation, it cannot be used here.
I wonder if these two people have seen something and are trying to weaken the power of the Xin family.
In front of the strong, the weak are too powerless, and sometimes the strong don’t even need to do anything.
Butler Luo opened his mouth, full of helplessness, "You go wait outside, don't let your guard down."
"Yes!"
All the Nascent Soul cultivators retreated, leaving only the Spiritual Transformation cultivator of the Xin family.
Next, some of the Divine Transformation cultivators began to get injured. For example, Xin Kui was seriously injured and was forced to go out to recuperate.
There were fewer and fewer members of the Xin family remaining, and they all looked solemn, with the previous excitement no longer visible.
Qin Sang had been observing these strange lights silently, when he suddenly saw the carriage in front of him stop.
Along the way, the Luan Chariot shrank again and again, and now there is only a small quiet room left, and it should be unable to continue.
A jade hand lifted the curtain, and Young Master Xin slowly stepped out of the car.
It was the first time Qin Sang saw the true face of Young Master Xin. He looked over curiously and saw that Young Master Xin had a delicate figure, like a young girl in her twenties. She had a half veil on her face, revealing skin as delicate as cream, and eyes as clear as autumn water. It was obvious that she had both superior temperament and appearance.
When Pei Gongsheng saw Young Master Xin, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his expression remained normal.
