Chapter 1003

Zhuge Xiaosheng’s Predicament

“Gui Mohan and Gui Huanyin are hunting Celestial Star Sect’s Tian Xingzhou? I thought they’re allies... Ghost Gate, I will show you my wrath!” Han Qi swore through his teeth, breathing short and heavy breaths as he gazed at his incomplete wife through his wet eyes. “I will go back to Full North City and tell everyone you’re hunting Celestial Star Sect’s Tian Xingzhou. Let’s see how the rest of the world reacts to your behaviour! I don’t care if this is true or not!”

Han Qi turned around and stomped, only to be cut off when he saw the Celestial Star Sect emblem on Long Qingan’s shirt. He looked up and panicked. “Elder Tian Jiancheng?”

“Who are you? Why are you here?” Long Qingan, whom Han Qi recognised when both of them were in Martial Hill City, stoically questioned.

“Elder Tian Jiancheng, I have important news for you. I just saw Ghost Gate’s patriarch chasing after Elder Tian Xingzhou. I am worried that...”

After listening to Han Qi’s heartfelt and heart-wrenching story, Long Qingan, tone nonchalant, replied, “Ghost Gate wants to exterminate our sect since we found out that they’re colluding with elemental demons. I came here with the aiming of stopping Ghost Gate. You should hurry out of here. Pass on this information so that more people see them for who they really are.”

“Th-they are colluding with elemental demons?”

Han Qi’s existing bias, what he witnessed and the credible elder who delivered the information were enough to convince Han Qi of what he usually would label a lunatic’s drivel.

“Yes. You need to enlighten people so that we can stop people dying for their sake. Also, let them know it was me who asked you to pass this message on, understand?”

“Yes, Elder Tian.”

As he strolled to the teleportation formation Mu Yu set on the water surface while Han Qi went in the opposite direction, Long Qingan mumbled to himself, “I finally understand what your plan is, Mu Yu.”

Long Qingan activated the domain energy inside a blue jade piece of his, enveloping himself in the blue energy that soon teleported him away.

“I came back as I needed to talk to Brother Xingzhou. He said he had an epiphany, so he went for a stroll around the palace and then told me to wait outside because he wanted to cultivate in the palace.”

“Why does he want to cultivate here? Uncle Boyang, for some reason, something about you feels odd?”

“While I was at Martial Hill City, I caught Ghost Gate’s Elder Gui Xiaochen killing our disciples. When I asked why, he claimed it was Third Heaven Palace’s edict and attacked me. I have yet to recover from the sneak attack.”

“Really?”

“They have always been prejudiced towards us; you would know about Senior Brother Xingzhou’s enmity with Gui Mohan in their younger days. I am afraid Ghost Gate is plotting to remove us.”

“I know they can’t be trusted. Nonetheless, they won’t try anything for as long as Third Heaven Palace is around. Since Uncle Xingzhou has come out of training in seclusion, I shall have a word with him. Third Heaven Palace’s directives take priority...” Tian Yuehen’s eyes slipped down to the back of Zhuge Xiaosheng’s hand. “Uncle Boyang, what happened to your soul seal?”

Tian Yuehen showed his left hand. “Third Heaven Palace put a seal on every Ascension Realm cultivator to identify us as a counter measure against Mu Yu’s disguises. Where is your soul seal?”
