Chapter 82 - 82: Do Not Act Recklessly

Translator: 549690339

Qin Changqing suddenly thought of a phrase: A person can’t always be eighteen, but there will always be eighteen-year-olds.

Alas, this world has become too corrupt.

“Husband, I need to go back to the sect for a while.” Before returning to Yinxu Prefecture, Liu Siqi came over and said.

Her purpose in coming out this time was to carry out a mission for the sect.

Now that the mission is completed, it’s time to go back and receive her reward.

“Let’s go back to Yinxu Prefecture first, then I’ll go back to the sect with you later.”

Qin Changqing still needs to take the Blood Coral King to Xuanyi Peak, but he wants to go back to the Qin Mansion first after being away for so many days.

Now that Gongsun Ming is dead, he is worried that the matters concerning the Gongsun Family might affect the Qin family.

At present, he knows about this matter, the Gongsun family knows, and the City Lord also knows. Qin Changqing can’t report it to the sect, otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to explain how he killed Gongsun Ming and the others.

Once that happens, Si Hongyue’s matter will definitely be exposed.

Instead, it’s better to let the City Lord’s side remain suspicious. At least theoretically, the people of the Qin family would still be quite safe within Yinxu Prefecture.

Of course, Qin Changqing is well aware not to entrust his life to others, so this time when he goes back, he will set up the Heaven and Earth Qianhe Array. As long as no Nascent Soul Stage powerhouse appears, the Qin family will have nothing to worry about.

What he cares about even more is the matter of the Huntian Sect this time.

“Don’t worry, Steward Qin. Although we have killed many people from the Huntian Sect, it’s a normal friction between righteous and evil forces, so there won’t be any problems,” Liu Shuisheng said. “And do you think these people are important to the Huntian Sect? You’re wrong. The Huntian Sect is a top-tier Fourth Grade sect with a deep foundation. The death of a few Golden Elixir Stage cultivators is nothing to them, it’s a common occurrence.”

“Is that so?” What Qin Changqing was actually thinking wasn’t about this.

He was wondering if Si Jiuming would escalate things and say something even crazier after escaping this time. That woman was even crazier than Si Hongyue, and she was a perfect embodiment of the evil path in the cultivation world. Compared to her, Si Hongyue was simply a righteous cultivator. What was even more outrageous was that the two were actually sisters, real ones at that!

Qin Changqing initially thought they only shared the same surname, but it turned out they were real sisters, which was quite a surprise to him.

The relationship between blood sisters that involved fighting and killing was truly unparalleled.

However, Si Hongyue seemed very calm and didn’t worry about Si Jiuming reporting to the sect after returning. As long as she got the Star Demon Order, she would be the winner of this ‘competition’, and everything else was unimportant.

The survival rules of the demonic forces were just that simple and crude.

As for Si Hongyue herself, considering the risk of exposure, Qin Changqing still gave her the Star Demon Order according to their agreement.

The woman was also straightforward. Want to become a Taoist couple? Want to dual cultivate? Sure, come to the Huntian Sect to propose a marriage. If you dare, just come!

Of course, Qin Changqing didn’t dare. Are you kidding? A top-tier Fourth Grade sect force, with even stronger experts than Liu Mengxian inside, he would be risking his life going to propose marriage.

Si Hongyue burst out laughing.

Qin Changqing said, “Don’t be complacent. Times change, don’t underestimate the young and poor!”

“Hehe- Then I’ll just wait for you.”

After leaving a sentence, Si Hongyue drifted away.

The next day, everyone returned to Yinxu Prefecture.

Yinxu Prefecture, Gongsun Family.

At this time, the whole family was immersed in a very heavy atmosphere.

White cloth was stretched both inside and outside the mansion, and people in the mansion wore white bands tied to their heads, looking heavy-hearted.

Pedestrians on the streets cast sidelong glances.

“What’s happened to the Gongsun family?”

“You don’t know? It’s said that the patriarch of the Gongsun family is dead!”

“Gongsun Ming is dead? How is that possible? He’s one of the four commanders, who would dare to kill him?”

“It’s said that he died in the Tiankui Mountain Range. It’s highly possible that it’s the work of the demonic forces!”

“Hey, the demonic forces are becoming more rampant, causing trouble in Yinxu Prefecture. I hope the people from the Lingxiao Sect will deal with it soon.”

“With Gongsun Ming’s death, the Gongsun family is in real trouble.””lt’s hard to say; the legend has it that Gongsun Old Ancestor is still alive.”

The news of Gongsun Ming’s death quickly spread throughout Yinxu Prefecture.

Although the official statement was that he was killed by a demon cultivator, many forces still smelled something unusual.

“The Huntian Sect has been on the run from the Lingxiao Sect for years. How could they have the ability to kill so many people from the Gongsun Family?” Murong Ba from the Murong Family felt that this matter was not so simple.

“Patriarch, could it be…” The steward whispered the word ‘Qin Family’.

Murong Ba narrowed his eyes and then burst into laughter, “In any case, this is good news. Prepare a banquet!”

City Lord’s Mansion.

In a courtyard behind the towering palace.

“City Lord, Qin Changqing has returned,” a respectful black-clad attendant said.

In front of him sat an old man dressed in brocade clothes.

The old man held a fishing rod, staring motionless at the pond in front of him.

When the float was pulled underwater by the force, he gently lifted the rod, bringing up a plump fish.

The old man took the fish off the hook and handed it to the steward beside him, “Take it to the kitchen.”

“Yes.”

The steward left with the fish.

“What’s the situation with Tiankui Mountain Range?” the old man, Jin Tianfeng, turned and asked.

“Reporting to the City Lord, the array formation within Tiankui Mountain Range has been broken, and we haven’t seen any people from the Huntian

Sect.”

“It seems they have suffered a loss at the hands of the Lingxiao Sect this time. Well, let them fight it out,” Jin Tianfeng said indifferently, “How is the situation with Qin Changqing?”

“It’s strange, when Qin Changqing came back, the three elders of the Lingxiao Sect actually personally escorted him to the Qin Mansion.”

Jin Tianfeng’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Being personally escorted back by three elders was no small matter.

“Now that the Gongsun Family is heavily injured, the Qin Family might truly rise by taking advantage of this opportunity.”

“City Lord, should we assassinate Qin Changqing?” the attendant asked. “Even though he is powerful, he is not at the Golden Elixir Stage, so it wouldn’t be difficult for me to kill him if I found the opportunity.”

“Do not act rashly,” Jin Tianfeng said, waving his hand. “He is that person’s disciple, and the Lingxiao Sect will surely be on guard after this attack. That person once dominated the entire Tianchuan State during the Tianyuan Battle, so we must not act rashly without absolute certainty.”

“The entire Dayan Dynasty is suppressing the Lingxiao Sect on all fronts this time. We must not let them succeed in the Immortal Ascension Conference. If the Lingxiao Sect is successfully promoted to a Tier 4 Sect, the authority and power of the Dayan Dynasty will inevitably be greatly affected!”

The Immortal Ascension Conference was not only related to the future of the Lingxiao Sect.

It was also related to the future of the Dayan Dynasty.

How could the Dayan Dynasty allow others to sleep soundly in their bed?

The Lingxiao Sect and the Dayan Dynasty had been in open and secret confrontation for many years, which had led to today’s stable situation.

But once the Lingxiao Sect gets promoted in the Immortal Ascension Conference, the entire sect’s power will expand, and the Dayan Dynasty will be the first to be affected.

Therefore, the top of the dynasty issued an order for the entire dynasty to strike against the Lingxiao Sect.

Yinxu Prefecture was the closest to the Lingxiao Sect, and Jin Tianfeng could foresee that within the next few decades, the entire Yinxu Prefecture would undergo earth-shattering changes.

“I heard that this Qin Changqing has taken quite a few concubines?” he asked with a change of thought.

“Yes, according to the information I gathered, he has a total of ten so far and is still looking for a Taoist couple.”

Jin Tianfeng smiled faintly, “Sensual, that’s a good thing. You go to the Red

Mill and tell Bai Liu to get close to Qin Changqing, make sure to gain his trust.

It would be best if she becomes his Taoist partner..”
