I'm only one year old, what the heck is a Overturning System?!-Chapter 68 - 62: Inconvenient to Leave!

"The night is dark and windy... quite cold."

Chen Yi sat on the roof of the side chamber, with the Spring Rain Sword lying across his lap, his gaze fixed on the mountains beyond Sword Edge Mountain.

In the darkness, mist surrounded him.

In the distance, the silhouettes of several peaks of the Grand Void Sect could be seen with scattered, faint glimmers of firelight.

"The closest is Dan Peak Mountain, followed by Body Cultivation Peak? No, it’s Lin Xun Peak."

Lin Xun Peak, a unique name.

Previously, Chen Yi had thought that Lin Xun Peak was covered with dead trees and exposed rocks before Mr. Ning explained.

Later, he learned that Lin Xun was left by the ancestor of the Body Cultivation lineage as a reminder to his disciples to be upright and steadfast.

"Further away are Qimen Peak and Book Mountain."

Chen Yi looked towards Book Mountain with a hint of curiosity.

It had been almost three months since he joined the Grand Void Sect, and he had yet to visit Book Mountain to explore the sect’s heritage.

Mr. Ning had mentioned that Book Mountain housed over a million book scrolls, encompassing a wide range of subjects including Cultivation Techniques, Demon and Monster Chronicles, Pharmacology, Arrays, and various schools of Qimen.

Not to mention the sheer volume, the fact that an entire mountain was used as a repository already suggested the immense heritage contained within.

"Even farther is Grand Void Peak."

There, Lin Xueru, Du Yanqing, Wei Letian, and Wei Xiaoyun resided, all of whom had joined the main branch of The Path of the Grand Void.

In fact, after the assessment day, the seven who came from Kyoto Prefecture to apprentice under the sect had dispersed.

Besides the four from the main branch of The Path of the Grand Void and Chen Yi, a Sword Dao disciple, the little princess Du Yan went to Qimen Peak, which specialized in Array techniques.

The chubby Wang Yongnian chose Body Refinement and went to Lin Xun Peak to cultivate.

Among them, the masters of Wei Letian and Wei Xiaoyun held the highest status.

They were adopted as disciples by Xiao Xuanzhen on behalf of their father and were apprenticed under Sect Master Xiao Huang of the Grand Void Sect.

Meanwhile, Lin Xueru and Du Yanqing were personally taught by Gu Tiangang.

Initially, the young girl didn’t want to separate from Chen Yi and wouldn’t change her mind despite all efforts by Ancient Tao to please her.

Eventually, Ancient Tao had no choice but to "seek help" from Chen Yi, and with his help, successfully took Lin Xueru, a disciple with exceptional talents.

Moreover, Lin Xueru didn’t forget to seize the opportunity to ask to visit Sword Edge Mountain frequently, to which Ancient Tao naturally agreed.

Chen Yi was quite satisfied with this arrangement.

For one, Ancient Tao had a good temperament, having protected them much on the way from Kyoto Prefecture to the Grand Void Sect.

Secondly, after all, Ancient Tao was a Second Grade Realm Great Cultivator.

With his personal guidance, Chen Yi believed the young girl’s future in Martial Arts wouldn’t be inferior.

Perhaps by the time she was thirty, her Martial Arts Cultivation could even surpass that of the Fourth Grade Realm mentioned on the plank.

Thinking of this, Chen Yi felt a chill on his body and couldn’t help but let out a breath.

In the cold winter night, as the cold wind blew, he saw the breath he exhaled clearly visible, only dissipating when its force was exhausted.

"Isn’t that person coming out yet?"

According to the description of the poison, True Yuan dissipates within five hours.

Chen Yi speculated that the person who had administered the poison would definitely come out before that time.

After all, by the next day, the abnormalities in his body would be discovered by the others at Sword Edge Mountain.

Unless that person was extremely confident in evading the sect’s scrutiny, he would definitely do something tonight.

Either make an assassination attempt or leave.

As for why Chen Yi chose to wait alone instead of informing Mr. Ning and others.

Heh, how high could the Martial Arts Cultivation of a person who resorts to weakening others by poisoning be?

After waiting for a long time, when the estimated time for the poison to take effect neared, Chen Yi finally heard footsteps.

A outer gate disciple of Sword Edge Mountain, dressed neatly and holding an iron sword, quietly came out of the side chamber.

After scanning the surroundings, he went around the side chamber pretending to be casual, and then quietly pushed the door and entered the side chamber where Chen Yi was.

All of this was witnessed by Chen Yi.

However, he did not rush to act, instead continuing to wait for a moment.

This outer gate disciple, named Fang Wentai, had been at Sword Edge Mountain for five years.

As Chen Yi expected, Fang Wentai’s strength was not strong, only in the Lower Stage of the Nayuan Realm.

"I want to see who is behind him."

Chen Yi didn’t believe that an outer sect disciple with neither high status nor strength would dare to attack him without any incentives.

Could it be that someone anticipated his joining the Grand Void Sect years in advance and planted an outer disciple from the Sword Dao Peak?

Sure enough, Chen Yi soon saw the outer sect disciple quickly come out, not stopping at all, and heading straight down the mountain.

He picked up the Spring Rain Sword and silently followed.

Following the path down Sword Edge Mountain, through multiple arrays, he arrived at the woods around the mountainside.

There, the outer disciple named Fang Wentai stopped, looking around nervously, then blew a short, urgent whistle.

Soon, a deliberately subdued hoarse voice came from behind a nearby tree.

"Did you succeed?"

"No, I don’t know," Fang Wentai replied in a slightly guilty and panicked voice, "I saw him take the poison, but when I went into the room, he... he..."

"What happened to him?!"

"He wasn’t in the room!"

The person in the distance seemed surprised and after a short silence, he finally spoke:

"If that’s the case, you should go down the mountain."

"Okay, but," Fang Wentai wiped the sweat from his forehead as he looked towards the dark silhouette in the distance and asked, "Senior, will you give me what you promised?"

As soon as his words fell, he suddenly felt a book in his hand, then heard the distant voice:

"Take it and leave quickly!"

"Thank you very much."

"Remember, depart from the western mountain path; someone there will meet you."

Fang Wentai kept nodding and turned to continue running down the mountain.

But before he could get far, the person who had been hiding behind the tree had already attacked him at a high speed.

Two cold flashes passed!

"You... you..."

Fang Wentai staggered, clutching his blood-spurting neck, staring wide-eyed at the attacker.

Then, he completely fell silent.

At this moment, Chen Yi could clearly see the person who made the move, raising his eyebrows in curiosity.

"Is it someone from the Martial Arts Hall?"

The man was dressed in the Grand Void Sect disciple’s attire, but there was a pattern sewn with golden threads on the left chest.

Chen Yi knew it was a mark of the sect’s Martial Arts Hall, whose disciples were specifically responsible for patrolling the mountains and capturing hidden spies.

"Is this considered guarding against one’s own?"

Chen Yi smirked, about to make a move, when he saw another person emerge from behind the trees.

Two of them?

And both are disciples who joined the Martial Arts Hall?

The latter walked to the corpse of Fang Wentai and whispered, "What should we do? We failed this time and probably alarmed others, there might be no chance in the future."

"Don’t rush." The first attacker shook his head, "Even if we failed this time, as long as Lord Chen’s son completely loses his True Yuan, that person will mostly not blame you and me."

"But I’m worried about what follows."

"Just refuse!"

The latter Martial Arts Hall disciple looked at him in surprise, "Aren’t you afraid of being punished by that person?"

"What’s there to fear? I was originally opposed to attacking Chen Yi. It’s good that we didn’t succeed this time, if we had, you and I would have not escaped our fate either."

"But..."

"Stop talking, let’s leave first!"

The previous attacker, who was not very old but very decisive in his actions and speech, turned to leave.

However, after only a few steps, he suddenly stopped, seeing the figure not far away, his face flashed with surprise.

"You... you..."

Chen Yi stood with the Spring Rain Sword held in front, his hand on the sword hilt, looking at them with a calm expression.

"I think, you are not in a position to leave just yet!"
