Chapter 269: Chapter 235 Nothing at All_1

Qingxuan Immortal City.

In the great hall.

An elder sat indifferently, surrounded by many Immortal Generals.

“During this period, everyone’s performance has been commendable, Immortal Monarch is very satisfied. He asked me to tell you that as long as you serve with wholehearted loyalty, what Immortal Monarch gives you will not be less than what Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin has offered.”

The elder spoke dispassionately, looking at the group of Immortal Generals who originally belonged to Xuan Yin Immortal City, he said, “After all, Immortal Monarch represents Qingyun Immortal Nation!”

Pride showed on his face!

Qingyun Immortal Nation had long wanted to engulf Xuan Yin Immortal City.

In past years, when the Immortal King of Saint Tone Immortal Country disappeared without returning, Qingyun Immortal Nation was one of the first to act.

It was only later that White Tiger Immortal Nation intervened and deterred Qingyun Immortal Nation from annihilating this last Immortal City.

Now that Heavenly Lord Shengqin and Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin are gone,

White Tiger Immortal Nation has chosen not to concern themselves with this matter.

Thus, Qingyun Immortal Nation unquestionably occupied this place.

Upon hearing these words, the Immortal Generals from the former Xuan Yin Immortal City all spoke up one after another.

“Please rest assured, Great Elder Lin Yun, we will definitely be loyal to Qingxuan Immortal Monarch!”

“To become citizens of Qingyun Immortal Nation, we are truly honored!”

“We are willing to go through fire and water for Qingyun Immortal Nation!”

They declared their stance one by one!

“Report!”

At this moment, a Taiyi Golden Immortal from outside entered and said,

“Report to the Great Elder, Ao Wushuang requests an audience!”

Great Elder Lin Yun said disinterestedly,

“Ao Wushuang? Who is that?”

An Immortal General beside him immediately said,

“Report to the Great Elder, he is the City Lord of the minor border city, Saint Cloud City.”

“Before this, he was the one who reported the news of the Celestial Monarch’s Formation-Breaking Tune…”

This Immortal General, named Wang Xiao, now gritted his teeth and said, “He’s a disaster star indeed!”

Because of this guy, Xuan Yin Immortal City had fallen!

But Lin Yun just sneered and said,

“A disaster star? He is clearly a lucky star!”

Without Ao Wushuang, Heavenly Lord Shengqin and Immortal Monarch Xuan Yin would not have perished so quickly.

Qingxuan Immortal Monarch would not have been able to easily take over this place.

So, of course, he was a lucky star.

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiao hurriedly corrected himself, “Yes, yes… my mistake, a lucky star, a lucky star!”

Saying this, he even slapped himself twice on the face.

“Let him in.”

Lin Yun spoke indifferently.

Before long, Ao Wushuang had been let inside.

“Report to the Great Elder,”

Ao Wushuang immediately knelt down and said, “I have discovered a significant opportunity!”

“A significant opportunity?”

Lin Yun sneered, “You, a mere Taiyi Golden Immortal, dare speak of a significant opportunity?”

Ao Wushuang’s complexion turned ugly, but he still continued,

“In the Great Wilderness outside Saint Cloud City, a Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands might have emerged!”

“The Immortal Spiritual Qi there… is even denser than in Immortal Cities!”

“This is a vial of air I collected from that region, the essence within it is for the Great Elder to verify!”

Ao Wushuang presented the Jade Vial.

Lin Yun reached out indifferently and the Jade Vial landed in his hand.

He opened it and took a sniff.

“Hmm?!”

A sharp light shot out of Lin Yun’s aged eyes!

The Immortal Spiritual Qi in the Jade Vial was incredibly dense, wasn’t it?

“Could it really be some Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands?!”

He was astonished.

He had once been fortunate enough to catch a distant glimpse of a secret blessed land within an Immortal Nation.

The aura was very similar to the one in the Jade Vial.

“Perhaps it’s worth checking out… Who will go?”

His gaze swept over those present.

“I am willing to go!”

Two Immortal Generals from the crowd immediately spoke up!

Both were Immortal Generals originally from Xuan Yin Immortal City, eager to demonstrate their merit and assert themselves.

“Zhang Xiandi, Mo Chaoyin, the two of you are very good…”

Lin Yun nodded approvingly but glanced at Wang Xiao with a hint of displeasure.

Wang Xiao’s face subtly changed, realizing that the Great Elder Lin Yun was displeased with him.

Yet, he remained silent.

He was afraid.

Ever since Ao Wushuang’s arrival, the envoys, elders, and even the Immortal Monarch of Xuan Yin Immortal City had met with disaster…

Now he was cowed.

He would keep his distance from such a disaster star!

“Lin Ting, you go too.”

Lin Yun spoke calmly, sending an Immortal General from Qingyun Immortal Nation.

After all, only then could he be assured.

“Yes!”

A young man immediately spoke.

The three great Immortal Generals, along with their troops and Ao Wushuang, departed right away!

As soon as they had left the city, eight more contingents of troops arrived!

“City Lord Zhao Qingfeng from Qingfeng City reports an anomaly in the Great Wilderness!”

“Linyun City has discovered significant news, City Lord Gu Ren personally comes to report!”

…

These were the other eight of the nine remote frontier cities!

They had also learned of the disturbances in the wilderness, so they rushed to report it!

Seeing this scene, Lin Ting’s expression also became somber; all nine border cities arriving indicated that something truly had happened in the Great Wilderness.

It wasn’t simple.

And Ao Wushuang, trailing behind, felt exceedingly fortunate.

Lucky that he had acted quickly, otherwise such a great opportunity could have been snatched away by the other eight cities!

“As for the matter of the Great Wilderness, Ao Wushuang has already spoken, and I am aware of it. All of you just follow me!”

Lin Ting declared indifferently.

The various city lords, hearing this, looked at each other in dismay.

They were too late!

A large troop set out, mighty in its progress!

Soon, they arrived on the outskirts of the Great Wilderness!

A glance revealed its vastness.

“Within are numerous ferocious beasts; normally, no one dares enter.”

“Given today’s anomalies, it must be the emergence of Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands!”

“Such dense Immortal Spirit Qi, if we can occupy it, would indeed be a tremendous opportunity!”

People were eagerly discussing, their eyes lit with excitement at the mention of the Great Wilderness.

However, at that moment, Ao Wushuang felt somewhat perplexed.

The aura of this place… why does it feel vaguely familiar…

They immediately entered the Great Wilderness.

“Dead Dog, help me out! Dammit… you’re going too far!”

No sooner had they entered than they heard a series of wails!

“Who is that?”

Lin Ting and the others, full of confusion, headed towards the source of the noise.

Before long, they came upon a valley.

In the valley, they were shocked to find a pack of wolves chasing a fat man!

The wolves, each one of them, were terrifying.

Every one of them was as big as a calf and emitted a frightful presence!

Among them, over a dozen were of Daluo Golden Immortal-level!

“How terrifying these wolves are!”

“A pack of Immortal General-level wolves? No wonder no one dares step foot in this Great Wilderness!”

“Where did that fat man come from? Daring to break in, could he also be vying for the Cave Heavens and Blessed Lands?”

All were shocked.

“Wait, look… those wolves, are they being chased by a dog?”

At that moment, Immortal General Mo Chaoyin pointed to the rear of the wolf pack!

They saw, to their astonishment, a medium-sized black dog actually driving the pack of wolves!

“Woof, woof, woof!”

The black dog barked!

The wolves, as if driven mad, bit at the fat man even more desperately.

“Ouch, my butt!”

“Dammit, that’s over the top!”

“Black Dog, I was wrong…”

The fat man wailed as the wolves with their sharp teeth had him howling in pain.

“No, this fat man has been bitten so many times and he’s still fine?!”

Lin Ting was suddenly startled.

The body of that fat man was terrifying—how could he tumble several rolls amidst a pack of wolves?!

“Strange… I’ll go have a look personally!”

He immediately led people forward.

Meanwhile, Ao Wushuang had turned pale, the deeper they went, the more he recalled unpleasant memories!

So, a flicker of fear crossed his heart, and he began to lag behind, not daring to get too close!

“Who are you, and why are you here?”

Lin Ting, exuding the powerful might of an Immortal General, appeared above Wu Dade.

“Seeing that your physique is decent, kneel and follow me, and I will grant you wealth and honor!”

Lin Ting spoke arrogantly!

He believed that the fat man was at most a wild cultivator who’d never seen the world!

And being besieged by a pack of wolves, he was in great peril.

He was granting him a way out!

Upon hearing this, Wu Dade raised his eyes to look at Lin Ting and then, rolling his eyes, said:

“Help me kill that black dog first!”

He pointed towards the black dog behind the wolf pack.

Lin Ting sneered in response,

“Fine, I shall rid you of that dog!”

He raised his hand and struck down!

But the black dog, with disdain in its eyes, raised its paw!

In the sky, a huge invisible claw suddenly swept down!

“Boom!”

Horrible Immortal Spiritual Qi!

“No!”

Lin Ting’s face changed drastically, horror in his eyes!

What kind of power was this? Even Immortals didn’t possess such might!

“Immortal Monarch, save me!”

He immediately invoked a quasi-Immortal artifact, trying to resist!

But in the next instant, the quasi-Immortal artifact exploded, and he burst into a cloud of blood!

“Save me!”

The likes of Mo Chaoyin who had accompanied him all the way began to scream!

“Bang, bang, bang!”

Blood mist splattered!

Wiped out!

Ao Wushuang, who had lagged behind, went weak at the knees upon witnessing this scene.

Dammit…

This wasn’t a dog… this was a primordial fierce beast, wasn’t it?!

His heart trembled with fear, and he turned to run!

He sprinted like the wind!

He escaped!

In the valley, the black dog spoke human language, looking at Lin Ting’s former location with contempt and said:

“Want to compete with this Emperor for a Human Pet? You’re nothing!”

Wu Dade, clutching his buttocks imprinted with wolf teeth, cursed as well:

“Expecting me to be a follower, you’re nothing!”

“By the way, Dead Dog, there’s still one more person behind. why didn’t you kill him?”

He noticed the escaping Ao Wushuang.

“Leave someone to spread the word, to bring an army to us, eh, Dead Fatty? The master has so many disciples, all Immortal, and it’s just you left. Master entrusted me to take care of you. If you don’t break through to Immortality soon, this Emperor will be embarrassed to return to the small courtyard!”

The black dog’s eyes were full of disdain as it said:

“Woof, Human Pet, continue your training!”

The black dog looked towards him and started barking again:

“Woof, woof, woof!”

The wolf pack, as if going mad, charged at Wu Dade!

“Dead Dog!”

Wu Dade howled!

…

Ao Wushuang ran fast!

After running out of the Great Wilderness, his legs were still shaking.

Dammit…

Thank goodness I was smart enough!

I had sensed that something was wrong with this world, otherwise, wouldn’t that have been delivering my own head?

An Immortal General using a quasi-Immortal artifact was slain with a single claw strike…

No, I must notify Qingxuan Immortal City right away!

Soon, he finally arrived at the foot of Qingxuan Immortal City.

“Disaster! Your city’s Immortal General is dead!”

With these words, Qingxuan Immortal City was shaken!
