Chapter 433: Top-brass meeting

Proofreader: Arya

While checking the jade tag, Gu Qing Shan thought of something.

“Was the Shen Wu world warp formation really made by Qi Yan himself?”

Speaking of this subject, everyone’s expression turned serious.

Because it could be the key to whether or not they managed to escape.

“He did. He himself was quite an expert with formations and because it was related to 2 undiscovered worlds, he couldn’t trust anyone with the coordinates of Shen Wu world” Wan Er confirmed that.

Gu Qing Shan thought back to the situation of the battle at the time.

In the final moments, Qi Yan used 300 anti-magic formations to protect himself while the warp formation plate activated.

“At the time, he said that the formation plate was given to him by his father” Gu Qing Shan recalled.

“Even to Guang Yang sect, the resources to make a warp formation plate capable of travelling between 2 worlds isn’t a small amount, only the sect’s head and Grand Elder are able to directly command that much” Qing Rou explained.

“That why the formation plate did come from his father, but the formation and the world coordinates were both set up by his own hands” Wan Er followed up.

“Qi Yan is already dead” Gu Qing Shan sighed.

Shen Wu world’s coordinates were known to only Qi Yan.

As for the small-sized warp formation, it required a lot of resources to make, some of them were very precious materials.

When he attacked Shen Wu world before, only two of these warp formations existed.

One of them in the hands of Guang Yang sect’s formation user, the other in the Zishan young mater – Qi Yan’s hands.

Every time it activated, the formation would get damaged partially.

One part written with coordinates to warp to Shen Wu world, the other part to return to their world.

After warping twice, the plate would break.

The formation plate in Qi Yan’s hand brought Gu Qing Shan, Qing Rou and Wan Er back to this world.

When it did, the formation plate crumbled to dust as soon as it reached.

Before that, Gu Qing Shan had killed Guang Yang sect’s formation user to steal the other plate.

He used this plate to bargain with the Tianma and had them join the battle.

And he still has it, in the last moment when he was sucked into the space vortex, he didn’t manage to give it to the Tianma.

Gu Qing Shan tapped his Inventory Bag and took out a small, intricate formation plate.

There was a deep gash on the plate, but it was still releasing a sharp presence as the space around it was constantly cracking.

This was the warp formation plate.

Both Qing Rou and Wan Er’s eyes lit up as they saw it, but quickly scowled.

This formation plate can still be used once.

But its coordinates have been set to the Suspended world.

Gu Qing Shan cannot use this plate to return to Shen Wu world.

But he will be able to find the coordinates of Shen Wu world within the space vortex from it.

“This formation plate is our only hope of escape” Gu Qing Shan said.

Qing Rou muses: “There’s a lock seal on the formation plate, if someone attempts to find the coordinates of Shen Wu world from it, it will self-destruct”

“He’s that cautious? That can’t be right, he gave this formation plate to a formation user” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“That formation user is nowhere good enough to break through Qi Yan’s lock seal. Furthermore, Qi Yan had placed an alarm seal on the formation, so if the formation user was brave enough to try, Qi Yan will be notified immediately”

“So he’s that cautious…” Gu Qing Shan sighed.

Wan Er: “Yes, it was only under these conditions that he allowed that formation user to use this formation plate”

Qing Rou continued: “Only a formation user much better than Qi Yan can find the coordinates of Shen Wu world from this formation plate”

As Gu Qing Shan listened, he muttered: “After that, we still need the help of another formation user to make a new formation plate”

“As well as a large amount of resources” Wan Er added.

Gu Qing Shan temporarily stopped speaking and thought of another minor detail.

“Qi Yan is not only the son of Guang Yang sect’s master, but also one of three Hallmasters, yet he was so cautious that he placed so many countermeasures on the plate as well as making sure that only he knows the world’s coordinates…”

Thinking that, Gu Qing Shan became more cautious than ever before.

Shen Wu world was connected to the cultivation world.

And there were a lot of people that Gu Qing Shan cared about in that world.

Once the coordinates were leaked, Guang Yang sect will definitely attempt to invade.

That would be, without any doubt, a disaster of the highest magnitude.

Even Qi Yan couldn’t trust his own sect members and his subordinates.

So naturally Gu Qing Shan couldn’t either.

Gu Qing Shan looked down at the formation plate as if studying it.

A few lines of glowing text appeared on the War God UI.

[Two-world warp formation. Unique item. Consumable. Directed warp usage left: 1. Directed world: Suspended world]

Following this, the icon for [War God Skill] below the War God UI lit up.

[Two-world warp formation, contains the following formations:]

[Directed warp formation: Shen Wu world]

[Directed warp formation: Suspended world]

[Comprehension of either of these formations will require 10,000 Soul Points]

[Caution: This is an unprecedented high-ranked formation, directly related to top-level formation knowledge like World coordinate lock-on, Opening a path in the space vortex and others]

[Caution: You may first study the basics of formation first to lower the Soul Points required to comprehend these formations]

Gu Qing Shan’s gaze fell onto and stayed at the number [10,000] for a while.

This was a number he couldn’t possibly hope to achieve.

Learning the art of formation from scratch takes a lot of effort and asides from the realm demon, there was no other demon in this world.

Procuring the 10,000 Soul Points required here was an impossible mission.

After staying silent for a while, Gu Qing Shan noticed something else.

At a corner of the War God UI, his Soul Points were depicted.

[Current Soul Points: 3/300]

Gu Qing Shan just stopped and stayed still without moving.

The trip to Huang Quan had already exhausted all of his Soul Points.

“What happened? You look a bit pale?” Qing Rou asked caringly.

Gu Qing Shan slowly exhaled: “I found quite a difficult problem to deal with”

“Guang Yang sect already doesn’t have any good formation users. But we might have a solution regarding that” Qing Rou consoled him.

“What solution?”

“Qi Yan used to have a maid who came from a world with a deep understanding of formations” Wan Er said.

Qing Rou continued: “That maid was called Chu Liu, another brilliant and beautiful girl”

“Ah, then she should be on our side, where is she now?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

If she’s not a member of Guang Yang sect but rather someone in the same situation as Qing Rou and Wan Er, she would very likely be willing to follow them and escape from this world.

I can meet and confirm that she’s trustworthy first before entrusting this to her.

“Qi Yan gave her to his subordinate”

“Why?”

“He got bored” Wan Er answered.

Gu Qing Shan froze.

“The real reason is because Chu Liu is an expert formation user, Qi Yan didn’t feel safe with her by his side”

Qing Rou glared at Wan Er and explained.

Gu Qing Shan understood.

An expert formation user who was also female and holds a grudge against him.

Of course Qi Yan wouldn’t feel safe.

She might be able to silently dispel all the formations around without anyone’s notice.

Once it gets to ‘Danger Hour’ and they don’t have a quarantine formation to protect them, the only natural result would be death.

“Then that’s easy, I’ll just take her back now” Gu Qing Shan said.

Qing Rou and Wan Er exchanged looks, clearly glad.

“You seem to be happy to hear that?” Gu Qing Shan asked.

“Of course, she’s a very good girl, not only is she beautiful, she’s also very gentle. Even Qi Yan felt it was a shame to kill her off, so he decided what he doesn’t see won’t bother him and gave her to his subordinate” Wan Er merrily explained.

Suddenly, Qing Rou’s expression changed a bit: “Someone’s here”

A second later, a voice came from outside: “Hallmaster Qi, today is the day of the sect meeting, it’s now time”

Gu Qing Shan coldly replied: “I seem to remember that was tomorrow”

The voice stopped for a bit, then continued: “We had to move the schedule up”

Both Qing Rou and Wan Er appeared worried.

“I only know that Rakshasa Peak is about to visit, so it might be about that” Qing Rou told him in a small voice.

“This is a secret so both of us where dismissed during their discussion of this, we don’t know the details” Wan Er quickly added.

Gu Qing Shan keenly listened.

“When will that sect come?” he asked.

“Right before we left for Shen Wu world, we heard that they were about to arrive already” Qing Rou answered.

Gu Qing Shan started contemplating.

Without any warning, the sect meeting is being conducted ahead of schedule, that was a bit too rushed, there isn’t time to prepare.

The sect meeting was a periodic meeting concerning the top-brass of Guang Yang sect.

Normally, those who participate in this meeting would include the Grand Elder Wang Hong Dao, sect master Qi Ruo Ya, Ning Yue Hall’s Hallmaster Ye Ying Mei, Zwei Wei Hall’s Hallmaster Qi Yan, Xiang Ji Hall’s Hallmaster Zhao Wu Chui. A total of 5 people.

Ning Yue Hall was in charge of teaching and managing the sect disciple’s cultivation.

Zwei Wei Hall was in charge of war and battle outside the sect as well as punishment of people inside the sect.

Xiang Ji Hall was responsible for managing the entire sect’s resources and expenditures.

Both Ye Ying Mei and Zuo Wu Chui are direct disciples of the Grand Elder, Wang Hong Dao, both Virtualized realm cultivators.

There was also a rumor that aside from being his disciple, Ye Ying Mei was also the Grand Elder’s mistress.

Back then, then Ye Ying Mei wanted to get married to become another sect’s Dao companion, but was forced to a stop by Wang Hong Dao.

It was so chaotic at the time that details aren’t clear.

But the truth is that Ye Ying Mei never got married in the end.

Out of the 5, only the sect master Qi Ruo Ya took the side of his son, creating a situation of 2 vs 3.

And the sect master’s faction was the weaker of the two.

But now, since sect master Qi Ruo Ya had already left to the space vortex to breakthrough, Qi Yan was alone.

Qi Yan will have to face off against both the Grand Elders and his two fellow Hallmasters by himself.

Of course the Grand Elder was still in seclusion so it’s unclear whether or not he’ll come out just for the meeting.

At least, Qi Yan doesn’t know.

Furthermore, the meeting this time might involve the current most powerful sect in the world, Rakshasa Peak.

It’s too hard to tell.

Never mind Gu Qing Shan who was pretending to be Qi Yan, even the real Qi Yan himself couldn’t deal with this complicated and unclear situation.

Wan Er bit her lip: “What if we sneak away…”

Gu Qing Shan cut her off and casually said: “It’s fine, we’ll go”

“Have you seen the information we gave you on the two Hallmasters?” Qing Rou looked over and asked him worriedly.

“I’ve memorized every single detail and event that happened to them in the last few hundred years” Gu Qing Shan answered.

Slightly tilting his large-brimmed hat up, he came out.
