The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 198
Chapter 198 Peace-seeking Messenger
Yin Yang Profound Demon Grand Art!
When Li Qing and City Lord Su heard this secret technique, their expressions couldn’t help but change.
This was a famous evil technique in the Devil Dao. It was specifically used for dual cultivation and tonification. It was a supreme cultivation technique in the world. How could they not have heard of it?
Speaking of the origin of this Yin Yang Profound Demon Grand Technique, it was truly not small. It was a supreme sect technique of the Yin Yang Demon Sect thousands of years ago.
In ancient legends, there was once a great devil in Diabolism who accidentally obtained part of the inheritance of the Yin Yang Palace of the Ancient Dao Sect. Combined with the devil arts he cultivated, he miraculously fused them together and created a completely new peerless technique, the Yin Yang Profound Devil Grand Technique.
There were ten palaces below the Ancient Dao Sect. The Yin Yang Palace was one of them, and it was also one of the strongest. In contrast, although the Eight Desolate Palace had guarded the Eternal Demon Abyss in ancient times, it was still a level behind.
It was also because of this that the Great Devil obtained part of the inheritance of this strongest branch hall that he was able to create a world-class peerless technique. It was all because this inheritance was extraordinary.
The Yin Yang Mysterious Devil Technique was a mystical secret technique that merged the two great sects of Dao and Devil. It was extremely powerful.
This great devil who created the Yin Yang Profound Devil Technique was the famous Yin Yang Devil Emperor thousands of years ago. Relying on this unique technique, this person once shocked everyone in the world. He was one of the best Diabolism giants of his time.
However, thousands of years had passed. The Yin Yang Devil Sect had already been annihilated, and the Yin Yang Devil Emperor had also fallen. This secret art has been lost for a long time, and I didn’t expect it to be obtained by Young Master Baifu.
“The Yin Yang Profound Demon Grand Technique has been lost for a long time. How did you obtain it in the Misty Forest?” Li Qing felt a little curious.
Young Master Baifu trembled and said, “I entered the Misty Forest and walked. I somehow got lost and trespassed like a headless fly.” After walking for a long time, he finally arrived at a mysterious place. After passing a test there, he inexplicably obtained this Yin Yang Profound Demon Grand Art. “However, the cultivation technique I obtained is not complete. It seems to be only a small portion.”
“You only got a small portion?” Li Qing frowned slightly.
“That’s right, it’s just a small portion. If you don’t believe me, I’ll memorize it for you.” As he spoke, City Lord Baifu immediately recited the magic arts he had obtained.
“Indeed, it is incomplete.” Li Qing listened quietly. Although he didn’t know if Young Master Bai Fu had memorized a real secret technique or if he was playing tricks inside, Li Qing didn’t care about it. Because he didn’t even plan to cultivate this secret art, so what difference did it make if there were any mistakes?
What he was concerned about was that Young Master Bai Fu had actually obtained this secret technique that had been lost for a long time in the center of the Misty Forest. There must be a great secret hidden there. If he had the chance, he could go inside and explore it. Perhaps he would obtain a fortuitous encounter.
“I’ve already told you everything I know. You can let me go now, right?” Young Master Baifu pleaded.
“Of course! I, Su, will not break my promise.” City Lord Su nodded his head. Then, he struck out with his palm and placed it on Young Master Baifu’s dantian, breaking his dantian and crippling his cultivation.
“Ah–” Young Master Baifu let out a miserable scream. Feeling the passage of his cultivation, he seemed to be unable to accept the fact that he had fainted.
“Take him out.” City Lord Su said. Immediately, two guards walked in and dragged Young Master Bai Fu out like a dead dog.
…
After leaving the cell, Li Qing asked, “What kind of place is the Misty Forest?”
“It’s very mysterious, shrouded in a layer of mist that doesn’t dissipate all year round. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t be a problem for ordinary martial artists to enter and hunt demonic beasts. However, if he wanted to take a step further and enter the central region, that would be impossible. “Because the deeper you get inside, the thicker the fog becomes. You can’t see the direction at all, and you’ll lose your way unknowingly.”
“Is there a layer of fog? Will it make people lose their way unknowingly?” Li Qing muttered to himself. Suddenly, a light flashed and he thought of a possibility.
The Bewildering Immortal Array!
This situation was too similar! The periphery of Hundred Flowers Valley was also shrouded in a layer of mist all year round, making it impossible for people to walk out, and they unknowingly lost their way.
It was precisely because there was a layer of the Confusion Immortal Array that this situation was caused. Perhaps the Misty Forest was the same. Perhaps.
Li Qing felt that this was extremely possible. He planned to go inside and see what the situation was like when the time came.
Just as he walked out, he heard a servant report that Baifu City and Wanqing City had sent messengers to ask for an audience.
“Envoys? It seems like they are here to seek peace.” City Lord Su smiled faintly and said, “We can’t afford to lose our manners. Invite them to the Su Clan’s main hall.”
Li Qing and City Lord Su immediately went to the Su Clan’s main hall and sat on top of the hall to receive the messengers of the two forces.
After a while, the messengers from Baifu City and Wanqing City arrived at the Su Clan’s main hall.
Li Qing and City Lord Su were surprised to discover that this time, there were not only two messengers, but three.
Which faction does the other represent?
At this moment, the three of them slowly walked into the main hall. Their expressions were a little strange. They actually carried some arrogance and pride as they arrogantly arrived at the center of the main hall. They cupped their hands and casually said to City Lord Su, “Greetings, City Lord Jiang Yuan.”
City Lord Su didn’t mind and said indifferently, “Well, I don’t know if the three of you are…”
“I am the messenger of Wanqing City, Zhao Zhong!”
“I am the messenger of Baifu City, Shen Rujun!”
The last person smiled gently, his expression a little arrogant, and pulled his voice long, “I am … the messenger of Xin’an City, Lyu Han!”
“Xin’an City!” City Lord Su’s expression changed as he said, “I didn’t expect that Xin’an City would also be involved in this matter. But how can I believe what you said? Do you have any evidence to prove your identity?”
The messenger of Xin’an City, Lu Han, took out a letter from his bosom. “This is a letter from our Patriarch. It is enough to prove my identity.”
City Lord Su waved his hand, and the letter was in his hand. He opened it and saw that there were some words written on it about Xin’an City wanting to mediate this dispute and the three parties settle it. In the end, there was a brilliant seal stamped on the end. It was the seal of the Lu Clan of Xin’an City. No one could forge it, and no one dared to forge it.
Li Qing felt very curious. He did not know why this Xin’an City was such a strange place for City Lord Su to behave so strangely. He secretly sent a voice transmission and asked, “What is this Xin’an City? Why do you seem to be so respectful of this city?”
City Lord Su secretly sent a voice transmission and replied, “You know, there are many cities built in the periphery of the Misty Forest. Among them, there is one that is the strongest and has the deepest foundation. It is Xin’an City. The ruler of this city is now the Lu Clan. Its overall strength is far greater than our Su Clan, so we have no choice but to respect it.”
“The Lu Clan of Xin’an City … I see. How strong is this clan?” Li Qing asked.
“The current Patriarch of the Lu Clan is at the fifth level of the Xiantian realm, and he is no stronger than you. However, behind the Lu Clan, there are a few peak Xiantian sixth level old antiques. They are only one step away from breaking through to the seventh level of the Xiantian realm and reaching the Heaven and Earth Dharma Realm. They have been in seclusion for a long time.”
“Several peak Xiantian sixth layer experts! They are indeed formidable. I am no match for them.” Li Qing couldn’t help but be afraid.
City Lord Su finished reading the letter and said, “I have finished reading this letter. I understand the general meaning. Do you want our Jiangyuan City to stop here and shake hands with Wanqing City and Baifu City?”
“That’s right, that’s exactly what I meant.” The three messengers nodded.
City Lord Su remained silent for a while and said, “Since Xin’an City has intervened, then I, Jiangyuan City, will give you face and agree to this request. I will not attack Wanqing City and Baifu City in the future.”
“City Lord Jiang Yuan is indeed a delightful person!” The corner of Lu Han’s mouth curved into an arc as he chuckled and said, “However, if the three of you want to truly reconcile and help each other, I’m afraid you still need to agree to a few conditions.”
City Lord Su and Li Qing couldn’t help but be stunned when they heard this. Why did this situation look like Jiang Yuan City was the losing side? Did they not figure out what was going on?
“What conditions?” City Lord Su was extremely calm, not in a hurry to get angry.
The three messengers exchanged glances and all revealed triumphant smiles, as if they had successfully crushed Jiangyuan City and gained the upper hand.
Looks like Jiang Yuan City must be afraid of the might of Xin An City! City Lord Su should be compromising!
The messenger of Wanqing City stood up and proudly said, “This time, our Wanqing City and Baifu City suffered heavy losses. All Xiantian experts and most of the elite martial artists were brutally killed by you. Such an act is truly unethical. Therefore, you must compensate us.”
“What? You actually want compensation? In your opinion, what kind of compensation do you want?” City Lord Su couldn’t help but laugh in anger. Did he really think that he would be able to be unscrupulous if he got close to a big tree?
“The two of us need to compensate 20,000 spirit stones each!”
“Twenty thousand Spirit Stones … Haha. If you have any other requests, say them together!” City Lord Su said coldly.
“Second request, Yu Tian City and Leshan City originally did not belong to you, so we must return these two cities!”
“Return it? To whom? The rule of these two clans has basically been annihilated by us!”
“Since that’s the case, then we, Wanqing City and Baifu City, will be in charge.” The White Forest City messenger laughed loudly.
“That’s equivalent to giving it directly to you. Do you have any other requests?”
“Release all the captives! And apologize to the injured!”
“Is that all? Are you done? Do you have any other requests?” City Lord Su appeared to be very easy to talk to and was very patient as he continued to ask.
“No, that’s all for the time being. I’ll let you know if I come up with any conditions in the future.” Seeing City Lord Su’s cooperation, the three ambassadors couldn’t help but feel proud.
They felt that the Jiang Yuan City Lord must be afraid of the strength of Xin’an City, so they could only obediently agree to these conditions.
“Alright, since you’ve finished speaking, then it’s my turn. Now listen up, I won’t agree to all of the above requests!”
