Chapter 399: 399: Asking Despite Knowing the Answer

Translator: 549690339

“He intends to break the Yuan Magnetic Barrier.” Lord Fengtian quickly understood Qin Changqing’s intention.

What surprised her was that the Yuan Magnetic Barrier did not react at all.

She recalled more than a year ago when the Yuan Magnetic Barrier trembled all at once.

This made Lord Fengtian vaguely suspect something, but she could not confirm it yet.

As time passed, the Yuan Magnetic energy was continuously drawn into the small ding.

Qin Changqing created a total of 999 small dings which were scattered in the sky over tens of thousands of miles, absorbing the Yuan Magnetic energy from several sections.

The Yuan Magnetic Barrier visibly thinned at a continuous rate.

“Senior Qin is about to break the Yuan Magnetic Barrier!”

Many local cultivators of Tianchuan State couldn’t help but cheer.

Especially the cultivators from the previous three Great Immortal Gates, not many of them had survived till now.

But there were still a few.

The Yuan Magnetic Barrier had a profound impact on Tianchuan State, but no one had been able to resolve it for many years.

It’s not that there have been no solutions, but implementing these solutions would bring disaster to the entire North Region.

Like Lord Fengtian, she could forcibly resolve it, but she would not be able to control the Primordial Magnetism Storm that spread throughout the North Region.

Moreover, even if she had resolved the Yuan Magnetic Barrier, she would not be able to find the location of the Immortal Artifact Fragments.

Unless she shattered the Taixuan Peak which stretched tens of thousands of miles away and stood ten thousand feet tall.

And it would have to be shattered very deeply.

Due to Qin Changqing’s thorough preparation, within a few months, the Yuan Magnetic Barrier had completely disappeared, becoming a part of history.

Subsequently, Qin Changqing cast a Legal Decision, fusing the formations that he had laid and the remnants of the natural Feng Shui array together.

“Boom~”

Along with the great tremor between Heaven and Earth, finally, the larger array was formed.

Following that, a sound erupted like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami.

The noise was the spiritual tide triggered by the connection of Tianchuan State and the North Region.

The spiritual qi of the entire North Region began to rush into Tianchuan State crazily.

“Great!”

“I didn’t expect Senior Qin to really solve the Yuan Magnetic Barrier, this is simply an immeasurable merit~”

A large number of cultivators in Tianchuan State cheered.

“From today onwards, Taixuan Peak will no longer be called Mangxiang Mountain, but Wulong Mountain!”

At this moment, the voice of Qin Changqing resounded through the Heaven and Earth.

After resolving the Yuan Magnetic Barrier, he changed the name of the Taixuan Peak.

The name was changed to Wulong Mountain.

Qin Changqing had set up a large number of Gathering Spirit Formations here, plus the trajectory of Wulong Mountain, this place would surely transform into a real fairy mountain in the future.

“What a wonderful Wulong Mountain!”

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

Accompanied by this voice, a figure stepped out suddenly.

At first glance, Qin Changqing noticed that this figure looked extremely old, even a bit hunched.

But its aura was astonishingly formidable.

However, for some unknown reason.

Perhaps it was because Qin Changqing had met the Master of Guiyuan Sect who represented the First Decline of Heaven and Man, but even though this old man appeared powerful, Qin Changqing detected a hint of weakness in his divine aura.

“Could it be that he is another powerful being undergoing the Five Declines of Heaven-Man?”

Qin Changqing wondered.

“Ancestor Dongfang!”

Although Lord Fengtian, hidden in the sky, did not show herself, her eyes narrowed upon recognising who the man was.

He is the ancestor of Dongfang Family!

He had personally come in person!

Although Lord Fengtian did not show herself, she was on her guard.

“Are you Qin Changqing?”

Ancestor Dongfang looked at Qin Changqing and asked.

“Yes, and who might you be, sir?”

Even though Qin Changqing did not know the identity of the other party, he could feel the veiled coldness in their gaze.

“You’ve even captured my own son, yet you don’t know who I am?”

The Dongfang Ancestor said.

As soon as his voice died away, Qin Changqing understood.

This was the ancestor of the Dongfang Family.

He had actually come personally to Tianchuan State.

Yet, Dongfang Ancestor’s attitude was somewhat strange; it wasn’t excessively hostile.

It even seemed a touch amicable.

However, Qin Changqing was not so easily fooled. If Dongfang Ancestor were truly amiable, why would the sect leader face such misfortune?

And why would he indulge that woman’s reckless behavior?

“Ancestor!”

“Ancestor, you’ve finally emerged from isolation. That woman’s actions over these years have almost torn our whole family apart!”

At this point, several members of the Dongfang Family flew out from the Taichu Sacred Land.

The sect leader’s aunt was also among them.

One of the sect leader’s granduncles seemed extremely agitated.

“I was in seclusion for too long. I only just became aware of this. You all have suffered indeed,”

Dongfang Ancestor looked at the clanspeople who had left the family and sighed.

His words greatly moved the sect leader’s granduncle.

However, the sect leader’s aunt stayed quite a distance away, without coming forward.

In addition, some other family members also kept their distance.

“Qin Changqing, I’ve heard that you have a good relationship with Mengxian. Let’s do it this way. As the family ancestor, I will arrange for Mengxian to marry you. From then on, you will be the son-in-law of the Dongfang Family and also a member of my Dongfang Family. How does that sound?”

After pacifying the family members, Dongfang Ancestor looked warmly at Qin Changqing, saying.

“As for Dongfang Ping, you can deal with him however you like. Just leave him a breath of life for my sake.”

Dongfang Ancestor added another sentence.

“His target is indeed Qin Changqing, the old fox!”

The hidden Lord Fengtian chimed in.

She saw through Dongfang Ancestor’s intentions. He clearly wanted to use Dongfang Xue to pull Qin Changqing into the Dongfang Family.

Furthermore, to achieve this goal, Dongfang Ancestor was even willing to abandon his own son.

She was somewhat worried that Qin Changqing might be fooled considering that she had noticed his deep affection for Dongfang Xue.

Just as Lord Fengtian was getting ready to reveal herself, Dongfang Ancestor spoke up again.

“Oh, so Lord Fengtian is here too. We haven’t met for thousands of years. Since we’ve bumped into each other, how about coming out for a meet?”

Lord Fengtian wasn’t surprised that Dongfang Ancestor had detected her.

As beings of the same Heaven-Man Five Declines strength level, and not too far apart, it was normal to sense each other’s presence.

She showed herself and said, “Dongfang Ancestor, that woman of yours bears intense resentment towards Qin Changqing and Dongfang Xue. Do you think they could live in harmony?”

Dongfang Ancestor said, “These are but minor conflicts. What could be so difficult to resolve?”

“Dongfang Ancestor, may I ask who Dongfang Xue is?”

Then, Qin Changqing’s voice rang out.

Who was Dongfang Xue?

She was taken aback.

Wasn’t Qin Changqing asking the obvious?

Far away, a smile surfaced on the sect leader’s aunt’s face. Qin Changqing’s pointed question was utterly brilliant.

It not only dumbfounded Lord Fengtian,

But also stunned Dongfang Ancestor.

He was plainly confused.

What was Qin Changqing’s intention?

“Qin Changqing, Dongfang Xue is your master, the sect leader of Taichu Sacred Land,”

Dongfang Ancestor explained after a moment.

Qin Changqing shook his head and said, “My master is not called Dongfang Xue. Since several hundred years ago, her name has been Liu Mengxian, unrelated to the Dongfang family.”

This response immediately brightened Lord Fengtian’s eyes. She understood Qin Changqing’s intention.
