Chapter 455: Chapter 239: Self-directing and Performing, Encounter with Wen Xiang Again_2
As for the Blood Sea.
Eight years ago, the Blood Sea raged, and the Blood Demon Disaster suddenly broke out. Many cultivators from Daqian joined the battlefield against the Blood Demons. However, not long after, the scattered Blood Sea receded, allowing many Daqian cultivators to breathe a sigh of relief.
Among them, the incident where Yuan Shun instantly killed Jiang Jiuge and severely injured Liu Su Monarch caused an uproar in Daqian.
Afterwards, when the Blood Sea calmed down, Duke of Zhennbei did not ask the Xuandan Sect to continue to guard the nearby Blood Sea. Instead, he sent a Wind Chasing Official to guard the edge of the Blood Sea.
Han Yi didn’t expect the Champion Marquis to be sent to the Blood Sea.
There must be some other hidden reason behind this, but this wasn’t his concern. What he was concerned about was the matter of Qin Wuxian.
Next, Han Yi discussed other matters with Zhou Su before casually bringing up the topic.
“By the way, Brother Qin passed through Shu Du not long ago. Has he been here?”
Zhou Su nodded naturally.
“That was half a year ago. Senior Brother Qin just took a short rest and then left.”
Hearing this, Han Yi’s heart suddenly shook, but he concealed it well. With his current Golden Core Early Stage Peak cultivation base, it was almost impossible for Zhou Su, who was at the Foundation Building Middle Level, to detect this change.
“Did Brother Qin say where he was going?”
“Coincidentally, my matter is quite difficult to handle. If I could find Brother Qin, we could join forces to capture the target easily, and I wouldn’t have to worry so much.”
Han Yi showed a worried expression at the right time.
However, to his disappointment, Zhou Su just shook his head.
“No, Senior Brother Qin’s whereabouts are naturally kept secret from us.”
“Perhaps Uncle Master should wait in the Profound Immortal Pavilion for some more time, maybe Senior Brother Qin will return soon.”
Han Yi smiled and shook his head: “That won’t do. My mission is time-sensitive; I can’t delay for too long.”
After chatting a bit more, Han Yi took his leave.
However,
He didn’t go far, but stayed at an inn diagonally opposite the Profound Immortal Pavilion. He observed Zhou Su’s situation for one more day. After finding no abnormalities, he left with ease.
Upon leaving the Profound Immortal Pavilion, Han Yi suddenly felt at a loss.
Shu Du was vast, and searching for a deceased cultivator was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
What’s more, Qin Wuxian had been dead for half a year. If his demise had been public, the Xuandan Sect would have received news of his death long ago.
This could only prove that only a few people knew about Qin Wuxian’s death, and the news had not spread.
Even his demise might not have been caused by external factors, but have occurred in mysterious places like the Shenchuo Illusion Realm.
Suddenly,
An idea came to Han Yi’s mind.
If Qin Wuxian was dead, what if a second Qin Wuxian appeared? Wouldn’t that draw out the cultivator who killed him?
However, in the next instant,
He shook his head.
There was great danger involved. If the one who killed Qin Wuxian was a Nascent Soul Monarch, Han Yi would lose his life with a single strike.
Moreover, his appearance might alert the enemy to the Xuandan Sect’s vulnerability, causing them to suspect Yuan Shun’s disappearance.
“I’ve got it.”
Han Yi’s eyes brightened as he suddenly transformed into the appearance of Xuandan Sect’s Master Yuan Shun. In terms of aura, he restrained it within his heart without revealing the Monarch’s aura.
This move aimed to reveal that Yuan Shun hadn’t disappeared, lurkingly notifying the cultivator who killed Qin Wuxian of his arrival.
It wouldn’t be difficult to spread this information.
Han Yi took flight and summoned his Immortal Boat. Then, he headed towards a certain neighborhood, stopping a moment later. Next, the Monarch’s aura, disguised by the Disguise Technique, erupted with a thunderous explosion, as majestic as a heavenly god, reaching the sky, rumbling and overwhelming.
Below in the neighborhood, a cultivator from Daqian’s official sect soared up, saw Han Yi’s face clearly, and was suddenly startled.
“Master Yuan, this is Shu State Immortal City. As per regulations, fighting is prohibited in Shu Du. Please be cautious, Master Yuan.”
This cultivator was only a Late-stage Golden Core cultivator. In the face of the Monarch’s aura disguised by Han Yi, his heart trembled, but he didn’t retreat and spoke up.
To his relief, Master Yuan Shun of the Xuandan Sect just nodded slightly and slightly restrained his aura.
“My apologies. I was just chasing a traitor of the sect, who fled into this neighborhood. If you spot the traitor, could you arrest him on my behalf? I, Yuan Shun, will reward you ten thousand top-grade spirit stones.”
Then, Han Yi flicked a finger, and spirit light transformed into a portrait. The portrait was of a dignified-looking cultivator. If Zhang Tu from the Daqin Immortal Country were here, he would be furious, because this portrait was none other than his face.
“Everyone, this person infiltrated my Xuandan Sect, disguised himself, and stole secrets. If you can capture him, I, Yuan Shun, am willing to offer ten thousand top-grade spirit stones as a reward.”
The spirit light-created portrait Han Yi showed was about ten meters high, so the cultivators below could see it clearly. Hearing Han Yi’s words, they felt their hearts heat up.
Ten thousand top-grade spirit stones – ordinary Golden Core cultivators would never possess so many spirit stones. Only wealthier cultivators at the Golden Core Mid or Late-stage might have such financial resources.
The prospect of wealth moved hearts, and the cultivators below hurriedly recorded the portrait with Jade Butterflies, Jade Plates, and Spiritual Talismans.
One could suddenly become rich if they managed to catch the culprit. Such an opportunity was fleeting and should not be missed.}
After announcing this “unfounded” bounty using Yuan Shun’s identity, Han Yi immediately made a quick exit, letting the cultivators from the Daqian Six Ministries breathe a sigh of relief. Their concern was that Yuan Shun might disregard the rules and directly attack the neighborhood below. Although the Daqian Six Ministries’ Monarchs might take action afterwards, they and the cultivators below would have died in vain..
