Chapter 281 Northern Flower City
Chapter 281 Northern Flower City
Jiang Wnxue hurried through the palace as she stood before the giant door.
" Tell Brother Yong that I wish to meet him."
" Wait a bit, My lady."
Soon enough, Jiang Wanxue stood before Qin Yong, who sat on his chair. With a light smile, he was drinking tea.
" I didn't expect Four Seasons Valley to defeat Sky Martial Tower. And even this badly." Qin Yong sighed.
" Indeed, Two Nine Transformation of Soul Realm protectors of First Brother went to secretly aid the Sky Martial Tower. However, both of them got killed by Four Seasons Valley."
" Indeed, Such a good news." Qin Yong couldn't help but laugh. " Two protectors, even for First Brother, the damage is enormous."
" But what's even more terrifying is Long Ming." Qin Yong remarked. " He actually had the confidence to take down the entire Sky Martial Sect."
" Yes, He was confident." Jiang Wanxue nodded. " That's why he asked us to use our influence to besiege the Sky Martial Tower."
" But, It's rather surprising to see that Qiu Ruoyou helping Long Ming with all her might. Perhaps it was because he saved her from First Brother?"
Jiang Wanxue's lips twitched when she heard that. She couldn't say the noble and elegant wife of the First Prince was blatantly cheating on him with Long Ming.
" But, Another reason might be she is using this chance to take revenge against First Brother. After all, The Sky Martial Tower and First Brother supported each other."
" You are right." Qin Yong nodded. " However, an Imperial Lineage is an Imperial Lineage. Even after most of their force git wiped out, they are standing tall."
" That damned formation. It's simply too much to break." Jiang Wanxue sighed. " Can't we ask the…"
" No, We can't ask them." Qin Yong shook his head. " They will only use force if the Holy Qilin Empire is in danger. Otherwise, they won't bother to burn their true blood to awake from slumber."
" Then brother, What should we do now?"
" First, we need to sap away First Brother's strength. Since he is in a weak state now, we need to use this chance to take him down as much as we can."
" And you should take a group of trusted guards and rush to the Sky Martial Tower. Who knows? Maybe an oppertunity will present itself?"
" Even if doesn't shows, you can have some negotiation with Qiu Ruoyou."
" I understand, Brother." Jiang Wanxue nodded. " I shall depart right away."
Qin Yong nodded as he saw Jiang Wanxue leaving. Suddenly, a shadow materialized behind him.
" Young Lord, What is your orders?"
" Hmm…Keep an eye on the First Brother. And…You know, his connection with the southern border." Qin Yong replied. " The Eastern Province shall soon descend into turmoil. Using this chance, the father emperor would definitely try to expand the territory."
" Therefore, a clash in the southern border would be inevitable."
" As you wish, Young Lord."
Qin Yong kept drinking tea as the person vanished.
' First brother, What are you going to do now?'

Long Ming hid his presence as he slowly navigated his way through the estate of Town Lord of Bluewater Town.
This is where the Sky Martial Tower hid their teleportation formation. Hehe, they must be using it as a path to take in and out their resources.'
' Huh? There are some people coming.'
There are several suspicious looking people slowly entered the main gate. Looking at them, he realized they might be the disciples of Sky Martial Tower.
As they entered the building, Long Ming also followed them. As he walked in, a guard suddenly stopped in." Halt! Who are you?"
" Hmph! Dare to stop this lord?" Long Ming snorted. " I guess the Town Lord isn't even doing his job."
" Can't you see I was going with my group?"
The guard trembled when Long Ming released a wisp of his aura. " I…I am sorry, My lord. Please, go inside."
" Hmph, useless."
Long Ming spoke coldly before entering the estate.
He noticed earlier that the guards were very fearful of the disciples. So, he used this chance to assert his dominance, quickly following the group entered earlier.
With his concealment technique, he wasn't afraid of anyone discovering him.
' Not to mention, I already planned a surprise for them.'
Long Ming's grin widened as he snapped his finger. Suddenly, a loud explosion happened outside, making the shock vibrate the surrounding.
" What? What just happened?"
" Intruder alert! Intruder alert!"
" Everyone, go outside!"
Long Ming sneaked in as he found the place where the teleportation formation is hidden. It was very small, making it only carry around five or seven people at once.
When Long Ming reached there, many of the guards were already alarmed. And the disciples already left the place.
A flash of pink appeared as several rays of pink sword qi shot across the space. The guards were stunned, but they couldn't defend against such a fast and precise attack.
*PLUFF! PLUFF! PLUFF!*
Their bodies got pierced by those lights, making the blood spurt. Long Ming didn't kill them but made them crippled. Without wasting any time, he reached the teleportation formation to adjust the rune and coordinates.
" Well, It was pretty easy, wasn't it?" Long Ming grinned as he stepped into the swirling light. A moment after, his figure vanished as he again shot through the spatial tunnel.
When he opened his eyes, we were already in a secluded location. However, like the previous place, it was heavily guarded.
This time, Long Ming couldn't evade their senses.
" What? Who is it!?"
" Who used that teleportation formation? Capture him!"
" As if you can."
Long Ming sneered as his Raging Storm Wings appeared behind his back, unfurling like divine wings made up of storm and lightning. With a flap, he disappeared from his position, turning into a streak of light and rushing through his opponent.
" Storm Wave!"
Storm wind blew and lightning crackled across the place as a storm had arrived. Long Ming was like a meteor, crossing through the guards while overpowering them.
With his momentum, he used the intent of Lightning and Wind, letting out a powerful wave of storm wind.
The lightning and wind swept like a blanket, stunning all the guards. Cries of agony filled the space as they fell on the ground, injured and coughing out blood.
However, Long Ming escaped from there like a bird, flapping his wings and streaking across the sky. He suddenly felt some figures chasing after him.
But he only smirked, activating his Rushing Lightning Steps.
*ZZZRTTTTT!*
Turning into a flash of lightning, Long Ming vanished on the horizon.
' My next destination is Northern Flower City.'
And soon enough, a giant city appeared before Long Ming. However, he couldn't help but see an ethereal shield around the city.
' They sealed the entire city? Because of war?' Long Ming thought for a moment before descending from the sky.
As he entered the city, he realized flying was strictly prohibited. Even Nine Transformation Soul Realm can defy this law.
' The Sky Martial Tower is located at the northern end of Northern Flower City, surrounded by mountains. There are already disciples of various sects gathering here.'
Like Grand Sky City, Northern Flower City is very bustling and prosperous. Walking around, Long Ming noticed there were many cultivators of the Harmonization Realm.
' These must be the elders of various sects. Hm, All of them gathered here to deal with Sky Martial Tower?'
Entering a tavern, Long Ming booked a seat and purchased some wine and stir fried meat.
" Haha, To think Sky Martial Tower would fuck up so bad."
" However, the Zhenwu Hall and Iron Li Sect are helping Sky Martial Tower."
" Hmph, So what?" The person sneered. " They lost so many of their treasures in the battle with Four Seasons Valley."
" Eastern Sky Sect can easily fend off these third rated sects. However, It's the Sect Protection Formation which is the most troublesome thing here."
" You are right."
Long Ming heard the talking and got a general idea of the current situation.
' Damn it, I think there is also another Ancestor lurking inside the Sky Martial Tower. However, he must be very occupied and can't take action easily.'
' Eastern Sky Sect, Holy Qilin Empire, and other rogue cultivators trying to take down Sky Martial Sect. And, Zhenwu Hall and Iron Li Sect are helping Sky Martial Tower.'
' No faction is willing to exhaust their strength to breach the formation. However, I feel if something isn't done quickly, Sky Martial Tower might reverse the situation.'
Long Ming couldn't help but salivate when he thought about the treasure vaults of Sky Martial Tower. If he could wipe them out, he would be able to make Four Seasons Valley soar to the sky.
' Then it's decided. After some rest, I shall depart to the Sky Martial Tower.'
However, after some time, he noticed an Eastern Sky Sect's disciple nearby. Thinking about a certain someone, Long Ming approached him.
" Good brother, Are you from Eastern Sky Sect?"
" Uh, Yes?" The disciples got confused. " Who are you, Fellow Daoist?"
" You can say I am…a friend of Miss Qiu Ruoyou."
