1374: On Huaning Mountain

On Huaning Mountain

There was a strange and proud smile on the First Elder's face.0

"Let's see where you can run to." The First Elder waved his hand and led several of his cronies away.

He followed Wen Da and Wen Er's scents and chased after them. However, the more they chased, the more they realized that something was amiss.

"First Elder, this route... seems to be the route of Huaning Mountain," said a disciple next to him, with a frown on his face. 

Clearly, the First Elder saw it too. He said coldly, "I'm afraid they have escaped to Huaning Mountain."

"Then do we still go? Offending Jue Wu is not a wise choice..."

"Of course we have to go," First Elder said with a sneer.

Offending Jue Wu, or even offending everyone in the world, was worth it. It was imperative that the Tianyun Sect to capture Qin Yu this time.

Very quickly, the group arrived at the foot of Huaning Mountain.

Led by the First Elder, they began the ascent on Huaning Mountain.

As soon as they got on the mountain, Jue Wu's two young attendants quickly walked out.

"Stop!" The young man held a sword in his hand and shouted loudly.

"This is Lord Jue Wu's residence. No one is allowed to trespass here."

The First Elder's expression was icy. He took a deep breath and said, "My young friends, we have no other intentions. We are only here for Qin Yu. We hope that the two of you will cooperate and hand him over."

"Impudent! How dare you come to Huaning Mountain to make such demand!" The youth was instantly enraged.

The First Elder continued coldly, "I am the First Elder of the Tianyun Sect. there is a deep grudge between Qin Yu and us. I hope that the two of you do not mistaken our kind gesture."

"I don't care who you are! In any case, you are not allowed to barge in here!" the youth said coldly.

The First Elder narrowed his eyes and said, "What if we insist on barging in?"

"Then why don't you try it!" The two youths made their stance, preparing to meet the attack at any time.

The First Elder said with some sarcasm, "Don't think I don't know that Jue Wu is already cultivating in retreat. The two of you can't stop me!"

The faces of the two youths changed slightly, and a trace of solemnity flashed across their brows.

"If you force your way in, Lord Jue Wu will not spare you after she comes out of retreat!" the young girl said with an icy tone.

"Those are things in the future, which I will worry about in the future!" The First Elder snorted.

Then, he waved his hand and said, "Search for him!"

At this moment, Wen Da and Wen Er both walked out from inside.

Seeing these two, the First Elder narrowed his eyes and sneered, "So, you two are hiding here!"

Wen Da picked his nose and said, "We are here, but unfortunately, Qin Yu is not here."

The First Elder's eyes sharpened slightly as he asked coldly, "What do you mean by that?"

"Do you think Qin Yu is a fool? He knew that you guys could catch our scents, so he already split up with us and one on his own way," Wen Da chuckled.

"That's right, that's right. Just because you are an idiot doesn't mean everybody else is just as stupid," Wen Er added.

The First Elder's expression changed slightly. Although they said so, he still had his doubts.

What if this was just a smokescreen deliberately set up by Qin Yu?

"My two young friends, let us go in and search. If we can't find him, we will leave immediately." The First Elder looked at Jue Wu's two attendants.

The young man immediately shouted, "Lord Jue Wu is cultivating in retreat. No one is allowed to disturb her!"

"Don't worry. We will not disturb Jue Wu," the First Elder reassured them.

"Ay, forget it, let them go in and look for themselves. Anyway, if they disturbed Jue Wu, they'll have to bear the consequences themselves," Wen Da said with a wave of his hand.

The young man and the young woman looked at each other and seemed to agree to this suggestion.

After all, with their abilities, there was no way they could stop the First Elder.

"Then I'm warning you, don't make any big movements." The young man resolve on issuing one last warning before letting them in.

The First Elder didn't say anything more and immediately led his cronies into Huaning Mountain.

Half an hour later.

The First Elder and the others appeared at the entrance again.

"How is it? I told you, Qin Yu isn't here," Wen Da chuckled.

The First Elder's expression did not look too good. He took a deep breath and said, "This sneaky villain..."

"First Elder, what should we do now?" The person next to him asked.

The First Elder gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go!"

They quickly left the place.

At this time, Qin Yu was making his way towards Yang City.

Without the flying beasts, Qin Yu could only walk on foot.

But this was an extremely long journey. Without flying beasts, it would take at least a few days.

Qin Yu wiped the sweat off his forehead and muttered to himself, "At this speed, they will find me sooner or later."

Back when they were in Azure Rock Forest, Ling Yun had a divine artifact that could locate people. Naturally, the First Elder would be able to find Qin Yu through the same tracking device.

"With my speed, it will take at least a few days to reach Yang City." Qin Yu frowned at the thought of it.

His surroundings were barren and overgrown with weeds. He could even see some unknown demonic beasts running around.

Qin Yu looked up and saw a city appeared in front of him.

This city looked as it had been in decline for many years. The name that etched on the city walls had been obscured by the wind and sand over the years.

A quake shook beneath Qin Yu's feet. after wiping off the sands from the city walls, three big words appeared in front of Qin Yu: Divine Capital City.

The name of the city sounded majestic, but there was no one to be seen in the entire city.

"Forget it, I'll settle down here for now," Qin Yu thought.
