The Sect Leader Has Taken in a New Female Disciple

Chapter 1242 - 371: Yan Family’s Imitation Extreme Dao Weapon

The dead still need to be exploited like the corpses of the geniuses in the Ancestral Land of the Xuanyuan Family, squeezed for their last bit of value, all for the sake of maximum profit.It seems all this is just to win over a Fourth-level Array Master like me.

"No matter," Zhou Qing said calmly, "In fact, I just went to test the waters and didn’t expect it was really his doing."

Now is not the time to tear down the facade.

In front of the Spirit Severing Realm, those in the Divinity Transformation Realm are ultimately like ants.

Xuanyuan Shuo nodded slightly.

He had already inquired in detail about this matter with Wu Zhenyue and Mu Qian.

At that time, Zhou Qing bluntly said that Nangong Xiongba disclosed the truth, but that was impossible.

After being rescued, Nangong Xiongba had been healing at the border, so how could he have given any information?

Moreover, from beginning to end, the two of them had never even truly met once!

Previously, I was worried that Zhou Qing had discovered something, but now it seems I was overthinking.

Seeing that Xuanyuan Shuo’s expression had softened, Zhou Qing casually asked, "Speaking of which, it was unexpected that the body we found in the Peng Emperor’s Cave Mansion was actually the acquaintance of that senior..."

Xuanyuan Shuo sighed deeply, his face showing signs of guilt, "This matter is indeed my fault. I had promised to bring it back for proper burial, but I was tempted by greed... Forget it, there’s no use talking about it."

Xuanyuan Shuo waved his hand, as if unwilling to discuss it further.

"In that case, it is inconvenient for me to continue disguising as the Peng Emperor at the border," Zhou Qing said accordingly.

Xuanyuan Shuo shook his head with a wry smile, "The entire Great Demon Mountain was destroyed by that silver-haired woman; pretending would be too obvious now."

He changed the topic, "By the way, did you meet her at the border this time?"

Zhou Qing honestly shook his head, "Years ago, I just did her a small favor, and she gave me a little trinket in return."

"After being promoted to a Fourth-level Array Master, I heard she went to the border and thought of looking for her."

Zhou Qing said this with a bit of regret in his tone.

"Unfortunately, I didn’t find her and instead went to catch up with Jiang Pojun and others, but unexpectedly ran into the Seventh Prince... The rest, you already know."

"In panic, I had no choice but to escape to heal."

Xuanyuan Shuo nodded thoughtfully, "I see. Regarding the matter of the Peng Emperor being slain by the Second Great Grandfather, I’ve already informed her. I suppose she will come to verify this with you later."

Zhou Qing sincerely responded, "Wu Zhenyue has informed me of this. Rest assured, I will tell the truth when the time comes."

Xuanyuan Shuo was satisfied, "Then, thank you very much."

Afterward, the two fell into a sudden silence, both staring simultaneously towards the distant Wuxiang Mountain.

The next moment, Zhou Qing squinted his eyes, and even the Extreme Dao Weapon in his storage bag—the Eternal Sin Fire Mirror—trembled slightly.

Soon after, the dark clouds above Wuxiang Mountain churned violently, and a massive gray-white lamp phantom suddenly appeared over the sea of clouds.

The lamp was a hundred feet tall, gleaming with an eerie bronze luster.

A ghastly white flame flickered in the wick, casting an ominous light over the entire sky.

"What is that?!" Xuanyuan Shuo exclaimed, his face filled with astonishment.

At this moment, even he could feel the spine-chilling cold from the lamp, as if his very Divine Soul was about to freeze.

As the lamp phantom gently swayed, countless gray-white threads burst from the flame, shooting towards one side of the dark clouds.

The next instant, a thundering dragon’s roar erupted from within the depths of the dark clouds.

Nine dragons of fortune broke forth from the clouds, each one over a thousand feet long, with scales and claws shining brilliantly, emitting a dazzling golden light.

The dragon’s roar reverberated across the land, dispersing the dark clouds within a hundred miles to some degree.

"It’s the Dynasty’s fortune!" one of the onlookers, an elder, quivered with excitement, his beard trembling, "The Old Emperor has even summoned the Dynasty’s fortune!"

Meanwhile, Zhou Qing was intently staring at the lamp, furrowing his brow.

This lamp’s aura and pressure were somewhat similar to the Eternal Sin Fire Mirror.

Could it also be some kind of Extreme Dao Weapon?

No, it felt much weaker and should be an imitation.

It seems the Yan Family in Nanhuang State has far more profound foundations than I imagined.
