Book 12 Qin Yu â Chapter 23:Xi Shuang
Translated by: Phillip
Edited by: Surjit
The Liu family Patriarch, Liu Yun Lu was petrified at the moment. The shockwaves from the battle in the sky added to his worry and fear. Whether it was the Jade Sword School on the one side or Qin Yu on the other, the two sideâs strength was so strong that it was scary.
âOver three hundred Golden Immortals, and the weakest are the Level Eight Golden Immortals, what strength is this?â Liu family Patriarchâs heart trembled.
When that Level Eight Golden Immortal Wu Bo contacted the Liu family Patriarch and the Liu family Elders, he had revealed that the lowest level of the experts coming were Level Eight Golden Immortals and the Liu family Patriarch was also aware of the number of combatants.
Since, the planetâs teleportation array was under the control of the Liu family, therefore, the Liu family was always aware of the number of visitors, however many they may be.
âThat Qin Yuâs background is too big, even when compared to the Jade Sword School you canât tell who is stronger.â Liu family head remembered the Great Elder being killed and he felt his legs grow soft like jelly. âIf the Jade Sword School wins, then they might blame my Liu family because Qin Yu is a honored guest. If Qin Yu wins, since he could kill the Great Elder, he could also easily exterminate my Liu family.â
No matter who won, it wasnât good for the Liu family.
The Liu Jia family head could only see darkness ahead of him.
The sounds of the explosions slowly faded away , the Liu family head felt that the blood-red night slowly begin to revert back to its tranquility, like the calm in the aftermath of a storm. It was so eerily quiet that any slight noise could be heard clearly. This caused the Liu family head to become even more distressed.
Sitting in the study, the Liu family headâs mental state was very unstable.
Suddenly...
A chain of piercing sounds rang outside the study, and the Liu family headâs face started to lose color.
âLiu Yun Lu, come out.â A thundering voice came from outside the study.
âWhat was supposed to come has came.â The Liu family head still felt depressed as he stood up straight, opened the door, and went out. Outside stood Yu Qing Ziâs side, enraged like a bull.
Yu Qing Zi and Immortal Lord Qian Qi, led the surviving seventy to eighty Golden Immortals behind them. When they came, the Level Eight and Level Nine Golden Immortals numbered over two hundred seventy, and now almost two hundred had died, including an Immortal Lord.
âLiu Yun Lu, this is my Jade Sword Schoolâs school head, who is the elder generation of Immortal Lord Qian Qi.â A Level Nine Golden Immortal shouted.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Liu Yun Lu immediately bowed and said, âLiu Yun Lu greets the elder generation.â
At this time, Liu Yun Lu didnât seem at all nervous. When a manâs fear reached the limit, they would resemble the present Liu Yun Lu, no longer afraid of anything, since he had already prepared for the worst.
âAre you the Liu family Patriarch?â Yu Qing Ziâs gaze was cold.
âYes.â Liu Yun Lu bent to bow.
Yu Qing Zi slowly said, âThe Emperor Yu has ordered the arrest or death of Qin Yuâs martial elder. However, this time that guy managed to escape. Although we searched the whole Amber Moon Planet for Qin Yu but we couldnât find a trace of him. What happened?â
âI know that the teleportation array on the Amber Moon Planet is controlled by your Liu family. He canât leave without your Liu family knowing, right?â Yu Qing Zi asked.
Liu Yun Lu thought in his mind, and concluded, âQin Yuâs power has reached the Golden Immortal Level. I think he got information beforehand. It might not be impossible that he then used âGreater Teleportationâ to escape to another planet.â
Yu Qing Ziâs hid his dark expression, and the nearby Immortal Lord Qi Qian also was upset.
This time they lost badly. Yu Qing Zi was so mad that he wanted to go on a killing spree. If he had to continue to suppress his anger, Yu Qing Zi would go go crazy from it. In this skirmish, their Jade Sword School lost so many of their elite disciples, and the number of second generation disciples was also reduced to two.
In the Silver Stream Galaxy, this number of experts was far from enough to maintain prestige. Feng Yu Ziâs position with Emperor Yu would also decline.
Immortal Lord Qin Qi similarly failed in his tasks. Although the galaxy he was in control of wasnât the Indigo Bay Star Field, but he didnât finish the highly important and sensitive task given by Emperor Yu. Of course Immortal Lord Qin Qi wasnât happy.
âTell me everything that you know about Qin Yu, especially where Qin Yu could have gone.â Immortal Lord Qian Qi spoke out.
Immortal Lord Qin Qi and Yu Qing Zi had already ordered for those people who had fought with Qin Yu in close quarters to be treated. They believed they had no chance of finding Qin Yuâs martial elder, so they could only find Qin Yu now.
âWhere could Qin Yu be now?â Liu Yun Lu pondered solemnly.
Immortal Lord Qian Qi and Yu Qing Zi stared at Liu Yun Lu.
âAh, it could be that.â Liu Yun Luâs eyes suddenly lit up and he hurriedly said, âTwo elders, that year when Qin Yu first came to the Amber Moon Planet he had requested from us an Interstellar Map for the Demon Realm. We talked many times, and it seems that Qin Yu always wanted to go to the Demon Realm.
Immortal Lord and Yu Qing Zi felt their hearts leap with happiness.
âDemon Realm?â The two great Immortal Lords opened their eyes.
âTell me, is there any other way to find Qin Yu?â Immortal Lord Qian Qi inquired again. They wanted to suck all the information that Liu Yun Lu knew.
Liu Yun Lu thought for a long time, then helplessly shook his head.
Yu Qing Ziâs eyes flashed angrily and he asked again, âIn your entire Liu family, other than you and the Great Elder, who else was close to Qin Yu?â
âNone, even if there were theyâre all dead now.â Liu Yun Lu replied as he thought of Liu Han Shu.
When Liu Yun Lu found out the Great Elder had died, he also found that Liu Han Shuâs soul jade slip had also shattered in the soul jade slip hidden storage.
Yu Qing Zi and Immortal Lord Qian Qi were stuck on the Amber Moon Planet doing nothing for a whole day. They carefully searched every spiderweb and horse print. Finally they could only dejectedly head back to Red Leaf Star.

An ethereal white tent floated in the air, playing hide and seek with the drifting clouds.
Within the tent.
A purple robed middle-aged man sat alone in the middle, with a cup of tea on the small table in front of him. On the other side was a green clothed sword immortal who had no more information to disclose.
âA very strong defense? Suspected to have a divine grade battle armor?â
The corner of Emperor Huangâs mouth held a trace of a smile. âLooks like it might really be Ni Yangâs âBlack Snowâ Divine Grade Battle Armor. That person was able to kill Xia Hua, looks like heâs around a Level Nine Immortal or a Level One Immortal Lord.
âThere were a lot of Level Eight and Level Nine Demon Kings?â
Emperor Yu looked at Soul Transmission Talismanâs information and shook his head as he laughed. âThat time Hua Yan sent me some information that the Atlas of Ten Thousand Beast was obtained by Qin Yuâs martial uncle âLan Fengâ. Looks like that person who slaughtered everyone really is that Lan Feng, but why would he only send out Demon Kings? His power level should be that of a Level Nine Golden Immortal.â
From these several scraps of information, Emperor Yu had already deduced some new ones.
Since he already knew that there was the Divine Grade âAtlas of Ten Thousand Beastsâ and âBlack Snowâ, Emperor Yu could easily deduce that there had to be other Divine Grade equipment, such as âSky Piercerâ, the Divine Sword and the number one treasure of the Immortal, Devil, and Demon Realms, the âPainting of the Lost God.â
Even after listening to these messages, Emperor Yuâs expression didnât change, and he only lifted his eyebrows a bit.
âHeading to the Demon World?â
Seeing Yu Qing Ziâs message, Emperor Yu hesitated slightly, then immediately understood. âHua Yan once said that Qin Yu has two brothers, one of which was a Fiery-Eyed Aquatic Monkey. It looks like his two brothers ascended to the Demon Realm, and he wants to go find them.
Everything that Emperor Yu speculated was pretty close.
Then Emperor Yu lightly issued a few orders.
Taking a sip of his tea, Emperor Yu gazed towards the southwest, âFrom the Indigo Bay Star Field to the Demon Realm, directly heading eastwards from the Immortal Realm should be the shortest path...and it is also the place where my influence is the strongest.â
âLan Feng, QinYu. My many obstacles, can you two, uncle and nephew, pass them?â Emperor Yuâs displayed a big smile.
âHa...â Lightly letting out a breath of air, Emperor Yu said to himself, âPainting of the Lost God! Oh Painting of the Lost God!! Even if itâs me, knowing of your existence moves my heart. I am already a Level Eight Mystic Immortal, but I canât tell when I will become a Level Nine Mystic Immortal. The only obstacle before me is that the Divine Calamityâs power is too great, and the chances of success are too low.â
âPainting of the Lost God, if the fact that you came back to the Immortal, Devil, and Demon Realms gets spread out, those old friends will surely leave their lairs.â Emperor Yu raised his tea cup and slowly stood up.
âLast time it was Ni Yang who got the Painting of the Lost God, but it was his bad luck that he was poisoned by the Celestial Realmâs poisonous bug. You canât even underestimate a bug from the Celestial Realm! Only this time, I am the first to know information regarding the Painting of the Lost God.This one time it should be my turn to obtain the Painting of the Lost God.â
The smile on Emperor Yuâs face grew even more brilliant as he peered through the white fog, through space, and finally his gaze fell at...Qin Yu. From the Violet Bay Star Field to the transportation array to the Demon Realm the security is very strict, especially in case, people from the Demon World appear. Even Yu Qing Zi and Immortal Lord Qian Qi were there to carefully inspect any suspicious people.
After all, Yu Qing Zi and Immortal Lord Qian Qi have seen Qin Yu as well as Kong Lan, Tu Gang, and Dan Meng.
Emperor Yuâs influence is very strong.
The number of galaxies that he actually controls is over 20, but...it is impossible for him to control an entire star field. The galaxies controlled by the three great powers of the Immortal Realm were all scattered, no one could control an entire star field.
Emperor Yu controlled about twenty galaxies, and he also has many allies and vassals, so Emperor Yu controls a large area.
Search!
But despite Yu Qing Zi and Immortal Lord Qian Ri running around till their legs were almost broken and searching all the suspicious things, they could not find a trace of Qin Yu. This caused the faraway Emperor Yu in the headquarters to be surprised. On one relatively busy planet, Yu Qing Zi and Immortal Lord Qian Qi faced each other.
âBrother Qian Qi, just now His Majesty Emperor Yu sent a message, and it seems the two of us can rest for some time.â Yu Qing Zi let out a long sigh of relief.
Immortal Lord Qian Qi also smiled helplessly, âIt is clear that Emperor Yu pays a lot of attention to the school which Qin Yu comes from, making us expend our best efforts to try to catch those two, and monitoring anyone who came from the Demon Realm. But...it was all for nothing.â
âThat Qin Yu and his martial elder are so strange, itâs like they evaporated into thin air, how can we not find them?â Yu Qing Zi helplessly said.
Immortal Lord Qian Qi lightly smiled, âWhen we were on the Amber Star Planet, the enemy escaped and we couldnât find anything, and even now there is no trace of them, haha...it really is interesting.â
âWe are monitoring everything so strictly and yet we couldnât find anything, maybe...when theyâre traveling among the stars, maybe they didnât use the transportation array, but directly use...Greater Teleportation?â Yu Qing Zi suddenly said.
Immortal Lord Qian Qi hesitated.
âRepeated use of Greater Teleportation for interstellar travel?â
Even Immortal Lords wouldnât be so crazy, Greater Teleportationâs range was certainly greater than teleportation, but to continuously use it for interstellar travel, not only does it waste energy but it also consumes time.
Using the teleportation array, not only was it easy, but it was also fast and optimal for long distance travel.
âIf Qin Yu and his martial elder really used Greater Teleportation to travel, then they could have avoided Emperor Yuâs men.â Immortal Lord Qian Qi smiled as he said, âExcept if they were to do that, wouldnât it be too âcrazyâ?â
The intersection of the Devil and the Immortal Realms, the Indigo Bay Star Field has ten big galaxies. Of them, the biggest was called the Blue Moon Galaxy, which was shaped like a crescent. In the Blue Moon Galaxy, there were two planets with an enormous influence, one of which was the Lord Yin Star.
Lord Yin Star was in the northern region of the Blue Moon Galaxy, and the experts were as many as the clouds. In normal planets, the number of Golden Immortals were very small. However, in the Hidden Emperor Star, you could see them everywhere. After all, on the Hidden Emperor Star, there lived the number one expert of the Immortal Realm, âLord Yin.â
Of the two powerful planets in the Blue Moon Galaxy, the other was the Blue Flame Star.
Blue Flame Star was the central planet of the âIndigo Bay Galaxyâ, very powerful and flourishing. Even among the countless planets of the Immortal, Devil, and Demon Realms, the Blue Flame Star could be considered one of the top planets, filled with countless Immortal, Devil, and Demon experts. There were people from many mysterious places, it was like fishes and dragons were mixed together.
On the Blue Flame Star, there was a upper-middle class inn called âBright Moon Innâ, which was an eighteen story inn. For Immortals and Devil Experts, not to mention an eighteen-story inn, even a hundred story palace is easy to build.
On the second floor of the Hao Yue Inn, there were quite a few people eating and drinking.
âYoung Master, please go back and rest, the meal has taken too long to eat, the dishes are cold now.â A maid with bright eyes and a pretty smile gently pulled at the hand of her master. This maid was from the Demon Realm and was already a Level Six Demon King, and was originally a white rabbit
Her Young Master was a young man clothed in blue.
âWan Er, donât worry, please wait until your Young Master finishes drinking this wine.â This young man treated his maid very nicely.
The maid Wan Er puffed her cheeks and looked at her master while nodding her head.
The blue clothed young man gave a light smile, then slowly drank some some. He gazed outside the window and looked at the bustling city. The street was full of experts, and Golden Immortal Level experts could be seen everywhere.
This was the central planet of a Star Field.
Although the Hao Yue Inn was not one of the top ones, but a stay for one night was a hundred low-grade holy elemental stones. It wasnât something normal people can afford to live in.
âOwner Qing Yan.â The blue clothed young man suddenly called out.
A stout middle-aged man heard the cry, and immediately turned his head and looked over: âAh, itâs young master Xi Shuang, I didnât think that I could see young master Xi here.â As he said this, he laughed out loud and walked over.
