Immortality from Taming Elephant-Chapter 352 - 180: The Bright Moon Shines on All But Me

Chapter 352: Chapter 180: The Bright Moon Shines on All But Me

On Wanhua Peak, standing tall amidst the clouds, the beauty atop the high mountain captivates the soul, surrounded by layers of clouds.

At this moment on Wanhua Peak, on a cloud platform, several young men were watching the young boy sitting at the far end.

"Shizhen, you don’t have to do this."

Tang Yuming was persuading Du Shizhen.

Since the day Old Li was taken away by the Jiang Family, Du Shizhen had fallen into a state of madness, nearly obsessed with cultivation.

"You’ve been sitting here for ten days, it’s time to go out, your body is getting stiff."

Du Shizhen opened his eyes, blood-red in his gaze.

"Senior Brother needn’t worry anymore."

With that, he closed his eyes once more.

Tang Yuming looked helpless.

"Senior Sister Shen came over, saying she’ll take you to Sword Seal Peak to have fun."

A nearby disciple whispered, "Senior Sister Shen said she’ll help you take revenge, Elder Jin raised a few celestial cranes on the mountain, she has her eye on one, we’re going to have a full crane feast."

Du Shizhen remained silent.

He had no favorable impression of the people at Sword Seal Peak...

because of Jin Qishan’s reason.

Only Shen Muyu was a friend of his master, and had taken much care of him.

After a moment of silence, "Please tell Senior Sister Shen, I don’t like eating crane."

He thought of the first cultivation technique his master practiced being from the White Crane Sect, he himself also practiced the White Crane Ladder Cloud Soaring of the White Crane Sect.

He indeed did not have much longing for cranes.

In the distance.

Jin Qishan stood on the clouds, looking at the distant layers of clouds.

"Junior Sister, some things are not as simple as you think..."

Master Fuqing just quietly looked at him.

After a long while, finally spoke.

"The Jiang Family has Demon Refining Peak, my Jiufeng Mountain also does not lack places to suppress demons, I don’t understand, even if Old Li indeed has barbarian means on him, why hand him over to the Jiang Family."

This is the real conflict between her and Jin Qishan.

Although she did not like to think, Old Li’s sudden disappearance for over a month, and sudden reappearance, something must have changed about him.

She trusted Jin Qishan’s judgment, but... could not accept sending him to the Jiang Family’s Demon Refining Peak.

Rare is the person who returns alive from a place like Demon Refining Peak.

"I suspect Old Li’s disappearance was the work of an undercover agent in the sect, he will die if he returns to Jiufeng Mountain."

"So? You, a Fourth Grade Elder, worry that a Fifth Grade undercover agent can kill someone under your nose? For a year, since Xu Guang left, you’ve always said there are people from the Celestial Destiny Sect, yet until now, you still haven’t found out who that person is?"

Jin Qishan did not want to talk about these things, saying he hadn’t found out seemed incompetent, but saying too much would ruin things for Jiufeng Mountain.

In fact, he now had some guesses about the undercover agent.

The elders in the back mountain were also watching the opponent; they wanted more to know the real purpose of the barbarians’ infiltration into Zouchuan Dao through that undercover agent.

They always thought they could handle everything, always thought there would be no unforeseen events.

It was like this with Shen Chong in the past, Xu Guang last year, and it is still the same today.

But even though Jin Qishan is the Elder, he cannot decide all matters within the sect.

"Have you heard about the events in Yongzhou?"

Master Fuqing took a breath and softly spoke.

Jin Qishan was startled; Jiufeng Mountain was preoccupied with the barbarians recently, although they paid attention to Yongzhou, it was not in depth.

"Someone used the Holy Body Manuscript to trade for a person’s whereabouts, causing a bloodbath in Yongzhou."

This, Jin Qishan knew.

He couldn’t help but show a tinge of emotion on his face.

"An elder from Chifeng Prefecture, rumored to be academically gifted, broke through to a Sacred Body before his life neared its end, now willing to exchange the Holy Body Manuscript for a young little girl, both virtuous and talented."

Before his breakthrough, he naturally would not have called him an elder.

But now, not only had he broken through, he was also highly likely to be a Sacred Body.

The age of that patriarch was definitely older than his, and with his achievement of the Sacred Body and Tongxuan, calling him an elder was a form of respect for the senior generation.

People from prestigious backgrounds have always valued etiquette and such things.

Master Fuqing sneered, "Do you know the name of the elder you speak of?"

Jin Qishan was taken aback, frowned; he really didn’t know, after all, Chifeng Prefecture wasn’t near Jiufeng Mountain, especially since the person seemed reclusive and seldom appeared in other Great States.

Master Fuqing quietly looked at him, with a meaningful gaze, "Last April, he appeared for the first time in Chiyao County, Chifeng Prefecture, claiming to be Xu Wei."

"Xu Wei?"

The surname made Jin Qishan raise his eyebrows slightly.

"Are you thinking of Xu Guang? There’s an even more coincidental thing, Xu Guang regarded the Great Beast as a brother, named it... Xu Wei."

With a thunderous boom!!

It was as if a thunderclap roared through Jin Qishan’s mind.

His eyes showed shock.

"You..."

"Impossible."

The age of Xu Guang was such that the time when that patriarch first appeared in the eyes of the world, he was already very old.

How many more years he has to live is still unknown.

Moreover, he was sure of one thing, that no trace of the Great Beast had appeared in Chifeng Prefecture. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

The person absolutely could not be Xu Guang.

Master Fuqing was not sure that Xu Wei was Xu Guang, but she was eighty percent confident.

"A cone within the sack cannot hide—its point will come out."

"There are some things I think Senior Brother also needs to plan for early. I believe he will be back soon, I hope Senior Brother can make the right decision for Jiufeng Mountain, last year’s event could have been avoided."

After saying that, Master Fuqing turned and left.

She was calm, carrying a sense of composure.
