Chapter 99: Heading to the Northern Region

“If you really look forward to being a cultivator… it’s not necessarily a bad thing to follow Sect Master Jiang…” Qin Mingzhu’s voice was a little weak, “Sect… Sect Master Jiang… those disciples of his… destroyed the He family in just a few moves… then… Sect Master Jiang’s spiritual power must be… strong… very strong. If you really like it… you might as well… you might as well try to acknowledge him as your Master… This is also better than… than traveling to such a faraway place to train…”

“Okay…”

In order to not let her sister worry, Qin Xiaoxi had no choice but to agree.

She did not like taking anyone as her Master. What she yearned for was the feeling of wielding a sword the ends of the world and helping others when she saw injustice. She chose to be a cultivator not only for her dream of being an unparalleled heroine, but also to obtain powerful cultivation and spiritual power to protect her father, younger brother, and elder sister.

Of course… Her sister was right. Jiang Yun’s spiritual power was indeed strong. It was no wonder that his disciples could destroy the He Family in just a few moves. It was truly amazing.

“Quickly rest, sister. Don’t talk anymore, or it will only aggravate your injuries.”

Qin Xiaoxi touched Qin Mingzhu’s face and smiled. She watched as Qin Mingzhu slowly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

“Little brother…”

Qin Xiaoxi suddenly said.

“What’s wrong, second sister?”

“I’m going out for a while. Don’t tell Father…” as her words trailed off, Qin Xiaoxi suddenly stood up as if she had made a very difficult decision.

“No, sister… Father won’t allow you to go out.”

“I’ll go out and buy something fun for you. Wait for me here obediently!” Qin Xiaoxi hurriedly got up and walked out of the house.

“Sister, Sister!”

Qin Xiaoxi was gone by the time Qin Yu chased after her out of the house.

Qin Xiaoxi arrived at the front hall in a blink of an eye. Two servants of the Qin Family were standing at the door on both sides. They looked at each other when they saw Qin Xiaoxi coming towards them. Then, they reached out their hands to attempt stopping Qin Xiaoxi.

“Let me out!”

“No, Master has ordered that young miss is not allowed to go out. So, please don’t make things difficult for us.” The servants looked very embarrassed. However, Qin Haisheng was the Master of the Qin Family, so they naturally had to listen to him.

“I’ll see who dares to stop me!”

After Qin Xiaoxi finished speaking, two streams of spiritual power shot out.

The two servants guarding the door passed out immediately and didn’t move at all.

Qin Xiaoxi clapped her hands, then pulled open the Qin Family’s door and walked out quickly.

On the other side, Jiang Yun had already met with Yu Sisi, Xiong Ji, and Kong Li.

“What’s wrong, Master? Did something happen at the Qin Family?” Yu Sisi asked Jiang Yun with concern.

As early as a few minutes ago, there were some merchants who had escaped from the Qin family. When Yu Sisi and the others met them, they only heard the word “monster” from their mouths. However, just as they were about to rush to the Qin Family, they unexpectedly met their Master on the way.

“It was He Zhao.”

That’s right, it was He Zhao.

The three of them couldn’t help but be curious when they heard this.

He Zhao should’ve clearly been dead in the He Family.

“That’s impossible. wasn’t He Zhao already tortured to death by that old man He Cangming? How could he still be alive?” Xiong Ji asked curiously.

This was not something that they could find out.

“But when we killed our way into the He Family, we didn’t see He Zhao’s figure, so it’s possible that he’s still alive. It’s just that… Even if he’s not dead, his cultivation should be crippled. How could he still wantonly kill the Qin Family?” Yu Sisi thought for a while.

“He Zhao has obtained the Power of Blood Shadow.”

Jiang Yun looked at his three disciples.

“The Power of Blood Shadow?” Kong Li’s eyes widened when he heard this.

The Peacock Clan couldn’t be more familiar with the Power of Blood Shadow.

The demonic hands of the Blood Shadow Sect had once reached out to their Peacock Clan. In order to strengthen their Power of Blood Shadow, the Blood Shadow Sect had massacred many of the beast clans. Many members of the Peacock Clan had also died under their clutches, their deaths extremely gruesome. Kong Li hated them to the bone.

“How could it be… But wasn’t the Blood Shadow Sect exterminated decades ago?” Yu Sisi was a little shocked. She couldn’t believe that the Power of Blood Shadow , which had once harmed the entire mainland, had reappeared in the world.

“The matter is indeed unimaginable, but He Zhao must not be the only one behind it.”

“So, what did He Zhao Do?”

“He broke into the Qin family and almost killed Qin Mingzhu. Although she didn’t die, the Power of Blood Shadow will slowly devour her. I’m afraid that Qin Mingzhu will not live long.”

Jiang Yun couldn’t help but sigh.

“Qin Mingzhu? Isn’t that He Junjie’s lover? She died? I heard that with what she did, she’s asking for trouble and brought it on herself?” Kong Li waved the fan in his hand.

But that was the truth.

Qin Mingzhu was seriously injured today, which was naturally the result of her past dealings with He Junjie. If she hadn’t done those contemptuous things, she wouldn’t have gotten herself into such a deadly situation today.

“Then what should we do now, Master?”

“I want you to stay in Thunder City and protect Qin Haisheng. Also, investigate where this Power of Blood Shadow came from. But remember, everything has to wait for me. You shouldn’t act rashly without waiting for me again like this time in regards to the He Family. After all, the Power of Blood Shadow is different from a minor character the He Family. It its you lot, you won’t be able to establish a foothold in this matter.”

Jiang Yun said this very seriously. He shifted his gaze to Kong Li.

The other two people also looked at him.

“What? Why are you looking at me? ? I haven’t done anything yet!”

Kong Li frowned in confusion.

“Master is talking about you, stinky bird! Don’t make a move until Master comes!” Xiong Ji reprimanded.

“Hey! I say you damned bear, don’t talk nonsense!”

“Alright! Stop! Either way, remember what I said! Only investigate, no movements!” Jiang Yun repeated solemnly.

“Then Master? Where are you going?” Yu Sisi asked.

“I’m going to the Northern Region.”

“The Northern Region? ?” Everyone exclaimed.

The Northern Region was thousands of miles away from Thunder City. With distance afar and mountains high, it would take at least half a month to return.

“What are you going to the Northern Region for, Master?”

“There’s the Holy Saint Snow Ganoderma there. I have to get it to fight against the Power of Blood Shadow.”
