Urban Dominating Immortal Doctor

Chapter 1033 1026: Turmoil Upon Entering the Town

"The Nanqi Plain is desolate, what were the three of Ling Yun doing there? And why did they fall there? Blood Kuang Elder's strength is formidable, how did he also fall there?"

Xue Mingzi's eyes flickered with a cold gleam, burdened with a series of questions.

The loss of three core disciples and an Elder of Middle Stage Immortal Venerable Realm was a heavy blow to the Blood Evil Sect.

"Could it be one of Marquis's Mansion, Piaoling Palace, or Divine Sword Sect? Did they first design to assassinate the three of Ling Yun, then take down Blood Kuang Elder, aiming to weaken my Blood Evil Sect?"

Third Elder Xue Hong, wielding the Blood Jade Staff, had a gleam in his old eyes, and spoke in a deep voice.

Within hundreds of thousands of miles around Celestial Cyan City, only Marquis's Mansion and the other two factions, Piaoling Palace and Divine Sword Sect, could rival the Blood Evil Sect and possess the strength to kill a Middle Stage Immortal Venerable Realm expert.

"Investigate! This matter must be thoroughly examined!"

A chilling light burst from Xue Mingzi's eyes.

If this matter isn't cleared up, not knowing who the enemy is will be like a bone stuck in the throat.

"Grand Elder, Third Elder, you two personally lead the elite of the Blood Evil Guard to search around Wind Ridge Town as well as Nanqi Plain, and do not miss any clues!"

"Focus on investigating the recent activities of Marquis's Mansion, Piaoling Palace, and Divine Sword Sect, checking if any Immortal Venerable experts have gone out."

Xue Mingzi looked at Grand Elder Xue Yan and Third Elder Xue Hong, speaking in a deep voice.

Since the opposition can assassinate an Immortal Venerable expert, the leader of the group must at least be Immortal Venerable.

"Yes."

Grand Elder Xue Yan and Third Elder Xue Hong both nodded solemnly in agreement.

"Also, check if there have been any suspicious outsiders recently in Wind Ridge Town."

Xue Mingzi squinted, then spoke.

"Sect Leader, are you referring to loose cultivators?"

Grand Elder Xue Yan looked towards Xue Mingzi.

"Hmm, either loose cultivators or people from other external immortal cultivation families."

Xue Mingzi nodded, speaking in a deep voice.

Although Marquis's Mansion, Piaoling Palace, and Divine Sword Sect possess the strength to kill Blood Kuang Elder, they should understand the consequences of doing so, as it would mean a full-scale war with Blood Evil Sect.

Thus, the remaining possibility is those lone loose cultivators chasing profit might have done it. Some loose cultivators possess strength equal to Immortal Venerable, are naturally ruthless; such as the top wanted criminals on the dynasty's bounty list, their strength has reached Immortal Venerable, they roam freely, with nothing to lose, utterly unafraid of sect powers.

Another possibility is a faction from hundreds of thousands of miles beyond Celestial Cyan City.

Grand Elder Xue Yan and Third Elder exchanged glances, both nodding in agreement.

"Unless it's a power that our sect absolutely can't afford to offend, otherwise, this matter won't be settled!"

Xue Mingzi slowly clenched his right hand, a cold brilliance flashing in his eyes.

Bang!

Meanwhile, in Nanqi Plain, a streak of light quickly streaked across the sky above.

The figure was Qin Yang.

After half an hour of flying, Qin Yang had reached the edge of Nanqi, a lush mountain forest appearing ahead in his view.

Bang!

Qin Yang flew over the forest ahead, continuing forward, encountering several loose cultivators along the way, but neither side paused.

After another ten minutes, a fairly large town appeared in Qin Yang's view.

"That should be Wind Ridge Town."

Qin Yang squinted, eyes gleaming with light.

At this moment, streaks of light flashed in Qin Yang's view, some cultivators riding flying mounts, others traversing the air.

However, these were all Immortal Spirit Realm cultivators.

On the ground, more were riding demon beast mounts, in small groups, galloping along the road with carriages and cultivators.

These people's destination was Wind Ridge Town.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

As they approached Wind Ridge Town, all the cultivators riding flying mounts or flying by themselves in the sky descended, paying a Lower Grade Spirit Stone, entering from the town gate.

"Airflight Restriction."

Qin Yang's gaze narrowed, his figure descending from the sky, indicating that Wind Ridge Town likely has an air-flight restriction, preventing cultivators from flying above.

Of course, this affects those with formidable power less, lower level restrictions aren't much of a hindrance.

Whoosh!

Qin Yang's figure flickered, descending from the sky. New to the Nine Provinces Sacred Domain, he didn't want to attract too much attention.

"Profound Turtle Concealing Breath Skill."

Qin Yang's fingertips formed a seal, activating the Profound Turtle Concealing Breath Skill, a faint blue glow flashing, concealing his aura down to Peak Immortal Master Realm, no need to reveal all his strength.

The Profound Turtle Concealing Breath Skill passed down by the old turtle, not even peers, nor Early Stage Immortal Venerable cultivators, should be able to spot it.

For now, Qin Yang shifted his gaze to Wind Ridge Town, then proceeded toward the town gate.

Though gaining a small portion of Ling Yun's memories, there were still many things about the Nine Provinces Sacred Domain.

Qin Yang didn't completely understand, so entering Wind Ridge Town would be a good opportunity to gather information about the Nine Provinces Sacred Domain and current Great Xia Dynasty details.

At Wind Ridge Town gate, four cultivators equipped with black iron armor were on duty, collecting entry fees, requiring cultivators to pay a Lower Grade Spirit Stone each time they enter Wind Ridge Town.

Qin Yang, following behind a group of people, was about to pay the entry fee when suddenly.

At that moment, Qin Yang's brows suddenly raised as a Bronze Horse Carriage pulled by four Fiery Fire Horses approached with lightning speed on the road behind, several kilometers away.

Beside the Bronze Horse Carriage were four burly men riding Fiery Fire Horses, all with a crude demeanor.

The curtain of the Bronze Horse Carriage wasn't closed; inside sat a white-robed young man with a pale complexion and a sly, arrogant look, embracing two graceful beauties, his hand roaming over them, without restraint.

Even nearing the town gate, the Bronze Horse Carriage showed no intention to stop, still charging toward Wind Ridge Town's gate.

"Get out of the way, make way for the Young Lord!"

"Make way for the Young Lord!"

"Young Lord's back in town."

"..."

The four burly men riding Fiery Fire Horses arrogantly shouted at the crowd blocking the town gate.

These cultivators were mostly Immortal Warrior Realm or Immortal Master Realm, a few were Immortal Spirit Realm. Despite their anger, they dared not speak up against the crude shouts of the burly men.

The cultivators assembled at the town gate embarrassingly shuffled aside, for the road was limited in size, the carriage, sizable with four Fiery Fire Horses escorting, charged with immense force, occupying half the road.
