As the Universe Turns - Chapter 962
Chapter 962 Exchange
Seven days later, Hua Weiyang and Master of Moon Valley finally arrived in Shu Zhong. It was February when the spring was cold and the rain was drizzling. There weren’t many inns in Shu Zhong, but even if Hua Weiyang and Master of Moon Valley had already concealed their appearances, it was inevitable that they would attract attention.
In recent days, the situation in Shu was not peaceful. The news of the destruction of the Buried Sword Valley had already spread throughout the entire Shu, causing people to be panicked.
After all, the eighteen clans in Shu had quite a reputation in Jianghu. How did the Sword Burying Valley offend Yun Sect this time and bring about the calamity of annihilation?
As everyone sighed, the wine was already hot. The waiter smiled and served the table. As he wiped away the raindrops that drifted in from the window, he smiled and said, “It’s hard to say about Yun Sect. It’s hard to say … Please enjoy your wine, Sir.”
Obviously, the innkeeper in the town was also afraid of causing trouble. He didn’t want the guests to talk about the destruction of the Buried Sword Valley in the inn. How could a small inn be able to explain what was happening in Jianghu?
“Shopkeeper, heat up two jugs of wine!”
Just as the shop was quiet, two women walked in. Both of them covered their faces with gauze scarves and their hair was still stained with rain. However, looking at these two people, one was dressed in plain clothes like snow, while the other was dressed in mink fur. They seemed to be afraid of the cold.
The two of them were Master of Moon Valley and Hua Weiyang. As the two of them entered, the originally quiet inn became lively. Many people looked at the two of them. Although their faces were covered with scarves, it was difficult to conceal their immortal appearance.
“Guests, please go upstairs!”
The waiter was a young man, With a smile on his face, he hurriedly greeted them. He had worked in this shop for ten years since he was young. He had seen quite a few people, but he had never seen such a peerless person before. However, the two of them must be extraordinary people in this world. In order to avoid getting drunk, he rushed over and covered everyone’s line of sight in the hall. He invited the two of them to the private room upstairs.
When she got to the private room upstairs, it was warmer. Hua Weiyang took off her mink coat and Master Mingyue Valley opened the window. The cold wind poured in again. She couldn’t help but frown, “The weather in Shu is really strange. It was sunny the other day. It rained for two days and it’s like winter. It’s far from Lustless Heaven, isn’t it, Palace Master?”
Hua Weiyang smiled gently, “Spring, autumn, and summer alternate. Isn’t this the world of men?”
Her words carried a smile. Although Lustless Heaven was like spring all year round, rich in immortal energy and far away from the clamor of the world, it was precisely because of this that Lustless Heaven did not have all kinds of forms in the world. Even though there was no winter and moon in the world, it was better than the winter and moon in the world.
Master of Moon Valley smiled and said, “If it weren’t for the recent events, I would have accompanied Palace Master to Suzhou to play. In another month, it wouldn’t be the time for the spring flowers to bloom on earth.”
As the two of them spoke, the waiter below had already brought up the hot wine. When he saw Hua Weiyang’s peerless beauty, he couldn’t help but be stunned. How could there be a deity in the world? But wasn’t the other party Fairy who came down from the clouds …
“Hey, what are you looking at? Put the wine away.”
“Yes, I’m sorry …”
The waiter panicked and hurriedly put down the wine. However, when he thought of the beauty of the girl in front of him, he couldn’t help but panic.
The Master of Brightmoon Valley saw his “flattered” appearance and couldn’t help but laugh, “Hey, waiter, bring up all the best dishes in your shop.”
“Yes, yes … Sisters, please wait a moment …”
The waiter seemed to be self-consciously filthy. He blushed and wiped the table. Then, he hurriedly lowered his head and went out. Inside the room, Master of Moon Valley smiled and said, “Palace Master, drink this wine from Shu to warm your body.”
The waiter outside mistook “Palace Master” for “Princess”, and his heart was even more shocked. Could it be that a princess from the cultivation country had come? To actually come to such a small place in Shu, his heart was even more panicked.
…
The rain stopped at night. The Moon in the sky was like a hook. The small town was very quiet. By midnight, several black shadows landed in the courtyard of the inn. It was Bai Luan and the others.
“Palace Master.”
Seeing Hua Weiyang, Bai Luan and the others immediately cupped their hands. Naturally, Hua Weiyang knew what had happened that day and asked, “Did you capture Yun Sect’s men?”
“Palace Master Hui, we have captured a total of four people. They are all disciples of Tang Qingshi’s sect. They are now twenty miles away in the forest.”
“Very good, it’s not too late. Let’s go.”
Hearing that he had captured Yun Sect’s men, Hua Weiyang did not hesitate and immediately left with Master of Moon Valley.
Since Zi Yuan was injured to save people this time, it would be better to rescue those people from the Sword Burying Valley. However, she had a plan in mind and would not act recklessly like Zi Yuan.
A stick of incense later, they arrived at the forest outside the town. Under the moonlight, there were four people tied under the big tree, while the rest of Night Shade was standing guard beside them.
“Palace Master.”
Seeing that Hua Weiyang was here, the few of them immediately greeted him. Hua Weiyang walked up and looked coldly at the four of them. The four of them raised their heads and were captured. Their lives were hanging on the line. There was no sign of panic or fear. Instead, they glared angrily at Yun Sect, Hua Weiyang, and the others. “Who are you? Capture us, do you know who we are?”
Apparently, Yun Sect’s disciples were used to being arrogant outside. People from other sects walked around when they saw them. Besides, these four were also one of the three Elder Tai. The disciples of Tang Qingshi’s sect, not the other outer sect disciples, were all proud of themselves. They didn’t know that they were now prisoners.
“Of course I know who you are, but you definitely don’t want to know who I am.”
Hua Weiyang’s gaze was cold as he stared coldly at the few of them. He then looked at Master of Moon Valley and said coldly, “Moon, give the four of them some Chang San.”
“What do you want to do? Do you know who my master is?” The four of them were shocked when they heard that they were going to administer poison to the four of them.
“It’s useless even if your master is Old Lord Taishang … Open your mouth.”
Master of Moon Valley smiled coldly. He held a dark sandalwood colored jade bottle in his hand and walked in front of the four of them. However, the four of them shut their mouths tightly and refused to take the medicine no matter what.
“You’re not convinced, are you?”
Master of Moon Valley sneered. Suddenly, he waved his sleeve and four ice needles pierced into the four people’s necks. The four people felt as if they were bitten by a mosquito. They felt a pain in their necks and soon lost consciousness. But then, their entire bodies burned as if their organs were going to be burned to ashes. They felt extremely uncomfortable.
“You, what did you do to us …”
The four of them were shocked and their entire bodies became more and more uncomfortable. Master Mingyue Valley threw the four pills on the ground and said indifferently, “This Chuanchang Powder is a poison and an antidote. I don’t want to die from the poison within half an hour. I want to consume it within half an hour.”
“You … you, such a vicious woman!”
The four of them were in extreme pain. If they didn’t take the poison, they would die. If they took the poison, they would still have a chance of survival, so they could only obediently take the poison.
Master of Moon Valley sneered, “In terms of viciousness, how could your senior brother be vicious …”
This time, the four finally understood what was going on, and their expressions became even uglier. In the end, they had no choice but to pick up the loose clothes on the ground and put them on. “Senior Brother … You, you mean Senior Brother Tang Yu …”
After the four of them took Chuanchang Powder, Hua Weiyang glanced outside and said with a frown, “Now go to Bury Sword Valley.”
Obviously, she wanted to swap these four people with Tang Yu instead of sneaking into the valley to save them. If it was an ordinary disciple of Yun Sect, with Tang Yu’s malicious nature, she might not be willing to swap people. Perhaps, she would even kill Yin Jian and the others.
Hua Weiyang was naturally aware of this, so he asked Night Shade to capture the disciples of Tang Qingshi’s sect. As a result, with the sect’s misgivings, even if Tang Yu refused, there was nothing he could do about it.
At noon on the second day, the group arrived at the Buried Sword Valley. Looking at the mess in the valley, Hua Weiyang couldn’t help but think of Lianhua Palace in the past. The Hundred Flowers Valley was also destroyed like this …
“I heard someone coming from afar. What? He escaped that night, and he came here today to trap himself … Or is it that you are reluctant to part with Ben Childe?”
When Hua Weiyang and his group arrived at the valley, Tang Yu also brought people out. These days, he had been searching for the array hole to suppress the earth veins in the Sword Burying Valley and hadn’t left.
