Qin Naihe was heavily injured, to begin with. Due to the heavy impact of the palm seal, he spat out blood again before falling limply to the ground.
“Qin Naihe!” Si Wuya stepped forward to support Qin Naihe. He hurriedly placed his hand on Qin Naihe and began to heal him.
At this moment, the Thousand Willow Monastery’s Wuwu finally arrived. Upon seeing the scene before her, she frowned immediately. She hurriedly launched a red light orb toward Qin Naihe.
Wuwu’s healing skills were not bad. When the red light orb landed on Qin Naihe’s body, it greatly reduced his pain. Nevertheless, it was impossible to restore his Birth Chart.
At this time, a small vitality energy storm appeared next to the semicircular pool. Usually, when the Birth Chart of a cultivator with a profound cultivation base was destroyed, it would stir up a vitality energy storm.
Qin De nodded in satisfaction. Qin Renyue had ordered him not to attack or kill indiscriminately, but Qin Renyue did not specifically say he could not attack Qin Naihe.
Qin Naihe had committed a grave mistake and was a traitor of the Qin clan. In Qin De’s opinion, destroying Qin Naihe’s Birth Chart was just a small punishment. It could also serve to intimidate the people of the Sky Martial Court.
“This is the consequence of betraying the Qin clan,” Qin De said.
Wuwu continued to heal Qin Naihe with all her might, causing her face to flush red from the effort.
Upon seeing Wuwu continuously healing Qin Naihe, Qin De waved his sleeve and said, “Get lost. You have no business here.”
A wave of energy swept Wuwu away.
Si Wuya frowned. “I’ve already told you Qin Naihe is a member of the Evil Sky Pavilion.”
Qin De did not want to continue talking nonsense with Si Wuya. He said, “Young man, I’ve already been very tolerant with you so you better stop now. Let’s end this here.”
Qin De raised his hand.
An energy seal shot toward Qin Naihe.
Now was a time of trouble. Qin De had to bring Qin Naihe back to the Qin clan as swiftly as possible so Qin Naihe could be punished. He still had many matters to attend to, and it was not good for him to stay here for a long time.
At this moment, Si Wuya lit up a talisman. All schemes and plots would be rendered useless in front of absolute power. He no longer hesitated and contacted his master.
“Hm?” Qin De was puzzled. The young man in front of him was really stubborn. If it were up to him, he would have killed the young man with just a palm strike. At that time, who else would dare to resist?
Just as Qin De was about to disregard Qin Renyue’s orders and make a move, a projection appeared in the air.
Everyone looked up and fell to their knees immediately.
“Greetings, Pavilion Master.”
“Greetings, Master.” Si Wuya kneeled on one knee.
In the projection, Lu Zhou was standing on the deck of the flying chariot with his hands on his back, high above the beautiful green lotus domain.
Lu Zhou knew Si Wuya would not trouble him unless it was absolutely necessary. Moreover, if it was something that Si Wuya could not resolve and had to resort to contacting him, the matter must not be trivial.
Lu Zhou asked, “What is it?”
“The first elder and the second elder of the Qin clan repeatedly harassed the Sky Martial Academy and even injured Qin Naihe, causing him to lose one Birth Chart,” Si Wuya explained. His words were concise and to the point.
Following that, Si Wuya lit up another talisman.
With that, a circle of light on the ground grew bigger.
Lu Zhou looked at Qin De who was hovering in the air, in the midst of capturing Qin Naihe.
Qin De glanced at Lu Zhou as he continued what he was doing and said, “Qin Naihe is a traitor of the Qin clan. I was ordered by Venerable Master Qin to capture him and bring him back to be punished. Are you going to stop me?”
Lu Zhou asked indifferently, “Didn’t Si Wuya tell you that Qin Naihe is a member of the Evil Sky Pavilion?”
“He did, but so what?” Qin De continued to tighten the grip of the palm seal on Qin Naihe.
Everyone could only watch helplessly as Qin Naihe rose into the air.
Lu Zhou said casually, “Your courage is commendable. Even Tuoba Sicheng and Ye Zheng didn’t dare to speak to me with such an attitude.”
Qin De was slightly startled. How could he not know the two Venerable Masters who were as famous as his clan’s Venerable Master Qin? He wondered if the person in the projection was looking down on his clan’s Venerable Master.
Qin De’s initial thought was that Lu Zhou was bragging and lying. However, when he saw Lu Zhou’s calm expression and extraordinary bearing, it did not seem to him like Lu Zhou was lying. To be safe, he said, “I only targeted Qin Naihe and never hurt anyone else. I hope you won’t take offense, and I have, I hope you won’t take it to heart. When you’re free, I’d like to invite you to visit the Qin clan. I’ll definitely welcome you with great courtesy.”
Lu Zhou said tonelessly, “Tell Qin Renyue that I’ll be waiting for him at Yannan.”
“…”
Qin De frowned when Lu Zhou mentioned Qin Renyue’s name. He was shocked when Lu Zhou mentioned Yannan as well.
At this time, the projection from the talisman showed a mountain peak that pierced through the clouds in the background. A cloud platform where a huge archway stood could be seen as well. Three words could be clearly seen at the top of the archway: Yannan’s Blessed Land.
Following that, the projection cut off.
“Uh, Brother Lu? Is that all?” Xiao Yunhe was dumbfounded. ‘The matter has yet to be resolved! Where are you going? Shouldn’t he show his skills to intimidate the enemy?’
“???”
Similar to Xiao Yunhe, the others were dumbfounded as well.
Si Wuya straightened his back before he looked at Qin De and said, “Since my master has spoken, I’ll leave Qin Naihe to you for now.”
Qin De felt a little strange and uneasy now that Si Wuya no longer opposed him bringing Qin Naihe away. He knew the projection he saw of Yannan was not fake. Thinking about this, chills ran up his spine immediately. He tried to calm down. He could not let these people affect him; he had to bring Qin Naihe away no matter what.
At this moment, Si Wuya said, “I have to remind Elder Qin that it’s best you convey my master’s message to Venerable Master Qin. Otherwise, it’ll be too late for you to regret your actions. That’s all I have to say. You can go on your way now.”
“…”
Qin De felt slightly hesitant at this moment. Suddenly, he felt slight movements from the talisman at his waist. He quickly brought the talisman out and ignited it. Soon enough, a few rows of words appeared.
The first row read: Venerable Master Tuoba and Venerable Master Ye Zheng are dead.
The second row read: Venerable Qin has gone to Yannan’s Blessed Land.
The third row read: If you encounter the Evil Sky Pavilion, remember don’t make a move at all. This is very important.
“…” Qin De’s eyes widened immediately. His fingers began to tremble as he digested the message he just read. He felt as though he was going to break down at this moment. Two of the most prominent figures in the green lotus domain were dead! Moreover, the two final rows of words caused the ominous feeling in his heart to swell. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath to calm down as he chanted inwardly, “This is a coincidence! It has to be a coincidence! That’s right, it’s a coincidence!’
Qin De took another deep breath. Then, he suddenly recalled Qin Renyue had led the 49 Swordsmen to the Unknown Land and had run into an expert there. That expert had fought a divine beast to a draw. He had heard that Qin Renyue was on good terms with that expert and distanced himself from Ye Zheng and Tuoba Sicheng. At this time, he remembered Qin Renyue telling him the expert’s surname was Lu.
“May I ask for your master’s name?” Qin Renyue quickly asked Si Wuya.
“My master’s surname is Ji,” Si Wuya replied.
Relief flooded Qin De’s heart immediately as he exhaled a long sigh.
At this time, someone added, “However, Pavilion Master usually uses the surname Lu. He’s known as Pavilion Master Lu as well…”
“…”
Qin De’s hands began to tremble immediately, causing him to lose control of his energy seal.
When the energy seal dissipated, Qin Naihe fell from the sky..
