Ancestor Above - Chapter 323

323 You’re at the nascent Soul Stage?

Wei Yun opened his eyes and looked at han xuzi, who was rushing over.

Han xuzi was the sect master and leader of the Yunxiao sect, the number one sect in the country of Yan.

“What happened?”

!!
Han xuzi’s face darkened and he said, I’ve just received news that the Yan Emperor, li Shiwen, has begun his breakthrough to the Dharma stage.

Wei Yun’s expression didn’t change much, and her voice was still indifferent.”How long has it been?”

“Four months.”

“Where did you get the information?”

“The Qingfeng sect sent it. They didn’t mention any further sources of information, but they clearly stated that they were 100% confident in this information.”

“Could it be a trap set by the Wei Kingdom?”

Han xuzi thought for a moment and then analyzed, ” “I’ve also thought about it. It’s not impossible for the Wei Kingdom to use the news released by the Qingfeng sect to shift our attention from the Pingzhou defense line to Yan city. But I don’t think it’s possible. It’s too easy to verify.”

“Firstly, if the information is fake, we can look for Lu Qing or Li Yanling from the Qingfeng sect. If the Qingfeng sect was bribed by the Wei Kingdom, I don’t really understand why. What can the Wei Kingdom give the Qingfeng sect to make them betray us?”

“Besides, it’s not like we don’t have a way to confirm this. We can ask martial nephew Bai to make a trip there and see if our Emperor, who is currently in charge of Yan city, is really as the Qingfeng sect’s Lu Qing has said, a fake.”

After listening to han xuzi, Weiyun slowly nodded and said,”Your words are not wrong, let’s do as you say, Zhenzhen.”

“Then I’ll go make the arrangements.”

“Yes.” Wei Yun added, ” help me send a letter to Xia Cang. I want to see him.

“Alright,” he said.

……

Han xuzi did not ask why Grandmaster Wei Yun wanted to see Xia Cang, but he could guess.

The Wei Kingdom’s Northern Expedition was menacing, and Chen Dajun’s presence in the South of Pingzhou gave Yunxiao sect a lot of pressure. However, considering the news that the Yan Emperor was about to break through to the Dharma stage, and the fact that the two sides had only confronted each other for eight years without any real battle, the Wei Kingdom’s Northern Expedition was full of suspicion.

If the Yan Emperor was preparing for the breakthrough in the Dharma stage and had already begun, then there was reason to believe that li Shiwen must have made some deal with the Wei Kingdom. Xia Cang might not have led the Army North to fight a war at all. He might have just come to put pressure on Yunxiao sect and delay their main force so that they could not return and find trouble with the Yan Emperor.

Wei Yun wanted to meet Xia Cang, probably to discuss this matter. If he could persuade the general of Wei to leave, then everything would be solved. If Weiyun could free himself and go to Yan city, would li Shiwen still want to break through to the Dharma stage? In his dreams.

Han xuzi hoped that Grandmaster Wei Yun would succeed.

Of course, it was impossible to pin all hopes on Xia canghui’s retreat.

He still did things according to the analysis he gave to Weiyun.

First of all, he secretly went to find Lu mingheng.

Lu mingheng was only a mere Foundation establishment cultivator, but he was suddenly visited by han xuzi, a nascent soul realm cultivator and Yunxiao sect sect master. It was needless to say that he was terrified, but he reacted quickly after hearing han xuzi’s request.

Han xuzi asked him if there was any way to contact Lu Qing or Li Yanling.

Lu mingheng would not have done this under normal circumstances. But this time, he really had one. Before he left for the front line, the higher-ups of the clan gave him a mirror and said that he could use it to contact patriarch Lu Qing if necessary.

This mirror was in his storage bag. Usually, he didn’t dare to disturb the old ancestor.

But now, this wasn’t considered a disturbance, right? No matter how one looked at it, it was an extremely important matter for the Yunxiao sect sect master to come personally.

Hence, Lu mingheng took the mirror out of his storage bag. Spiritual power was poured into it, and the magical artifact took effect. In the gray fog, a man with eyes as bright as stars appeared in the mirror.

“Sect master han xuzi, it’s an honor to meet you.”

“Fellow Daoist Lu.” Han xuzi didn’t have time for small talk. I received news from the Qingfeng sect today. Do you know about it? ”

“I know, I was the one who incited this matter to be sent to your sect.”

“This is an important matter. I hope fellow Daoist Lu can reveal whether the source of this information is trustworthy or not.”

four years ago, our Lu family’s caravan was attacked. Sect master han xuzi should know about this. Lu Li said.

“I know,”

“It was the faceless society that attacked my family’s caravan. I believe your sect has some understanding of this organization.”

yes. han xuzi nodded slightly and said, ” it’s an underground organization in the Yan Kingdom. They’re very mysterious and will take all kinds of private commissions to do some things.

Lu Qing began to explain to han xuzi, ” the faceless society is an underground force supported by the royal family. They have been collecting the materials needed for li Shiwen to break through to the Dharma stage for a long time. The divine Thunder wood was one of the treasures that li Shiwen needed to break through. They attacked my family’s caravan in the past for the three pieces of divine lightning wood that I bought from your sect. ”

“My Lu family was attacked. I can’t just let this matter go. We’ve been secretly investigating the faceless society, and these are the results of our investigations. He had also found out about li Shiwen’s breakthrough through this investigation. Now, we have basically grasped the location and progress of li Shiwen’s breakthrough.”

Han xuzi shook his head and said,”Daoist Lu, you didn’t tell us exactly where you got the information.” How did you guys investigate this?”

how we did it is a secret of the Lu family. Please forgive me for not being able to answer.

Lu Qing’s answer was very decisive.

This matter was indeed hard to say, and it was not good to make up any other excuses. It was even harder to gain people’s trust if he lied, so it was better to just leave it at that.

It wasn’t that han xuzi wasn’t mentally prepared for this. If the Lu family or the Qingfeng sect could investigate something that even the Yunxiao sect did not know about, it must have involved some special and secretive means. It was normal for them to be unwilling to say anything.

“However, the Lu family can help with Qianqian’s matter.”

When han xuzi heard Lu Qing’s words, he immediately recalled that the Army of cultivators from the Qingfeng sect seemed to be on the way South from the Feiyun state. As long as he took a turn, he would be able to rush to Yan city.

This was too much of a coincidence.

Han xuzi immediately understood that the news of the Yan Emperor’s breakthrough was probably not recent. They might have known about it long ago, but they just kept it a secret and only told him now.

The Lu family was quite ambitious.

“What do you want?”

“One Jin Prefecture and half Ji Prefecture. Leave half Ji Prefecture for the Imperial court.”

Han xuzi laughed. hahahaha! Your Lu family sure has a big appetite. Aren’t you afraid of being stuffed to death? ”

Although he was smiling, his eyes were cold.

The Lu family’s greed made him feel a little amused, but also a little hateful.

He could basically confirm that the Lu family had concealed the news. This in itself had already left a bad impression on the Lu family, and now, he was even using this incident to demand an exorbitant price.

The current Qingfeng sect was already the leader of the Feiyun state and the Xue state. If they were to take over Jin state and half of Ji state, wouldn’t they be on the same level as the Yunxiao sect?

Are you even worthy?

Of course, that was not how it was supposed to be. Even the combined production of the Feiyun state and the Xue state might not be as much as that of a state in the South. But even so, han xuzi didn’t think that the Lu clan or the Qingfeng sect had the right to control such a large territory and resources.

It was fine to have ambition, but the key was that ambition also needed to have the corresponding strength.

Putting aside the fact that the Qingfeng sect and the Lu clan were going to control three and a half States in the future, just the current situation alone was enough.

Could the Lu family help?

The 20,000 cultivators of the Feiyun state heading south seemed to be a great force. However, even if the Feiyun state sent out all its forces and had six cultivators above the Golden core realm, it was still nothing.

Six golden core cultivators could solve the problem in Yan city? Han xuzi felt that this was unrealistic.

Right now, there were only two gold core realm cultivators in the Yan capital in name. However, han xuzi was 100% sure that the Yan Emperor had made further preparations for all the trouble he had caused.

Great Wei’s Northern Expedition indeed involved Yunxiao sect’s main force. Even if they knew that the Yan Emperor was planning a breakthrough, they did not dare to return. However, if the Yan Emperor thought that he could rest easy just because of this, he would be too naive.

Han xuzi didn’t believe that the Yan Emperor would be so naïve.

If the six gold core realm cultivators of the Feiyun state were to charge into the Yan city, they would probably be badly injured.

Therefore, it was still the same sentence:

Was he worthy?

However, under han xuzi’s cold gaze, Lu Qing put on a carefree expression and said with a smile, ”

“We can always have a chat. Our Lu family has a nascent soul cultivator. After eating so much, his appetite isn’t that big.”

nascent soul realm? ” han xuzi’s pupils contracted. you’ve reached the nascent soul realm? ”

“I was lucky enough to break through a few years ago.”

Han xuzi remained silent.

This was important news. Although it wasn’t as shocking as li Shiwen’s breakthrough to the Dharma stage, a nascent soul cultivator was considered an upper-class cultivator in the cultivation world of Yan country, and even in the entire nine countries. An additional one could greatly strengthen and influence the strength of a celestial nation.

In the past, the Lu family and the entire cultivation world of the Feiyun state represented by the Lu family had produced many golden core cultivators in a very short period of time. Now, there were six golden core cultivators under the command of the Lu family in a state like this.

Just this portion of power that the Lu family currently possessed had already made them famous in the country of Yan. It even made people feel that they were the third most powerful force in the country of Yan after the Imperial court and Yunxiao sect.

However, compared to the first two forces, this third force was a little too weak. The above two forces both had nascent soul cultivators. The Lu family, not to mention the number of golden core cultivators, didn’t have nascent soul cultivators. Lu family couldn’t stand on the same level as the two forces.

However, once there was one, everything would be different.

Han xuzi needed to reevaluate the Lu family’s situation.

It seemed that when he said that he was going to solve the problem in Yan city, he did not seem to be overestimating himself.

Han xuzi was quickly calculating in his heart.

As the sect master of Yunxiao sect, he still had the final decision-making power in Yunxiao sect regardless of whether it was in name or in reality, even though there was still ancestral master Weiyun above him. He wasn’t the kind of sect leader who was just a figurehead. When he encountered important matters, he liked to consult Wei Yun. It was mainly out of respect for the senior and he wanted to rely on the senior’s experience. It didn’t mean that he didn’t have any decision-making power.

As han xuzi was thinking, Lu Qing was not in a hurry. He smiled and sat cross-legged on the ground, waiting for the final answer.

After a long while, han xuzi slowly said, ” “I can promise you that.”

“Then, the fleet of the Qingfeng sect will immediately turn to Yan city,” Lu Qing nodded and said.

“I’ll be waiting for your good news.”

……

Lu Qing was not too surprised that han xuzi would agree to his request.

In fact, this was not a big price to pay. The Jinzhou and half of Jizhou that the Lu clan wanted did not belong to Yunxiao sect in the first place. Instead, they were areas that were traditionally influential in the Imperial court. Yunxiao sect did not have to pay anything in exchange for the Lu clan’s help.

Of course, it wasn’t like he didn’t need to pay anything.

After all, han xuzi couldn’t place all his hopes of stopping Yan Emperor li Shiwen on the Lu family. That was unrealistic. Currently, there were not many nascent soul realm and above experts that Yunxiao sect could mobilize.

The five people on the surface were all at the front line. Even if there were some hidden experts, a large portion of them had been deployed to the front line of Pingzhou. There were only two of them left in the Yunxiao sect.

It was unlikely that both of them would go to Yan city. After all, it was his hometown, so at least one of them should be left to guard it.

At most, they could only send one to Yan city. Han xuzi had already sent a message to Bai Nantian.

‘Cloud-treading sword immortal’ Bai Nantian. The outside world still thought that he was an expert in the Golden core stage. Little did they know that he had already entered the nascent Soul Stage twenty years ago and became the youngest nascent soul cultivator in the country of Yan. Furthermore, he had already attained the nascent Soul Stage level two in just twenty years.

If Lu Qing were to know about this, he would be envious and jealous.’I’m cheating. Two years is equivalent to 20 years. Why haven’t I reached the second level?’

However, if one thought about it carefully, there was no need to feel indignant about it. After Lu Qing’s talent was greatly enhanced in all aspects, he was indeed very talented. Even if Bai Nantian had the talent of a spiritual body and a heaven spiritual root, he could not be compared to Lu Qing. Logically speaking, Lu Qing had all sorts of external buffs on him. His talent should have completely surpassed Bai Nantian’s.

However, the divine-grade cultivation technique he had was very difficult to advance.

Due to his sacred art and powerful cultivation technique, his combat strength far exceeded that of cultivators of the same level. When he was at the eighth-stage golden core realm, he could already fight two peak level-five big demon kings. Although he had just reached the nascent soul realm, he estimated that his combat power should be very strong, although he had not fought with enemies of the same level yet.

However, this kind of power was not without a price. This was the difficulty of a divine-grade cultivation technique. In addition, the power of Sacred Arts would increase with the improvement of the cultivator’s cultivation level. However, this improvement was not for nothing. It also required the cultivator to invest time to develop it.

It was as if Lu Qing was carrying three divine-grade cultivation techniques and two divine abilities at the same time. This inevitably slowed down the speed at which his cultivation level was increasing.

Currently, other than Bai Nantian, han xuzi also tried to get one or two nascent soul realm cultivators from Yunxiao sect to return.

He didn’t even think about calling one of the five Yuanying on the surface, but one in the dark.

However, the moment he moved, the Wei Army pressed forward.
