Chapter 33: A Distant Shock

The sky was still crimson.

An Ziqing, walking gently toward Yu Yuan, seemed to be emitting a brilliant light that no one dared to stare at.

The kind of light that looked like a beautiful charming jade.

It was the undeniable fact that her beauty was not truly revealed until now.

With their heavy emotions, everyone started looking at her.

“It turns out that it wasn’t just a simple illusion of mine that morning.” Yu Yuan thought bitterly about the morning when Yuan Lianyao came into his room.

Yuan Lianyao also remembered the abnormal movement of the main that day when she was leaving.

She only just doubted but never thought about it more than just a simple mistake of her judgment.

However, even she did not expect the strange sight to actually originate from a cultivator from the Divine Blood Sect.

“The night when Yin Jue came to my room and froze you with his ice spell, I thought you don’t know what happened afterward.” Yu Yuan paused for a few seconds and said, “But you saw everything.”

An Ziqing chuckled as she walked. “I indeed saw your brilliance that night. I saw you using the poison pill to devastate the last moments of Yin Jue’s life and sealing his mouth to prevent others from noticing. That night you truly made me admire you.”

“I want to know why are you here in the Yu Clan in the first place. With your cultivation, you shouldn’t even be interested in a tiny clan like us” Yu Yuan questioned.

“Ah, I’m sorry. I cannot answer that question at the moment,” An Ziqing said. “But I am also very curious about you. I don’t care how many people will die here in the Dark Moon City. All I need to do is to get my brother to successfully advance to the Yin God Realm. As for you, my young master, I will continue to accompany you.”

“Continue to accompany me?” Yu Yuan laughed coldly. “Or rather you can just take me away and make me your servant instead.”

“Young Master, it is my honor to serve you.” An Ziqing made her voice sound as sincere as she possibly could. “As soon as you woke up from the coma, I noticed that you will have a good chance cultivating to the highest realms in the future. By staying in the Yu Clan, your skills are wasted. Come with me. The Divine Blood Sect is your best choice.”

An Ziqing stopped suddenly.

Her eyebrows moved as if to notice something.

A red ball of light suddenly appeared in her palm.

Immediately, another drop of blood flew out of the skin of her palm wrapping around the light ball and miraculously blending into it.

“Tears of the Blood; the Divine Eye!”

The drop of blood that originated from her burst into a spectacular large ball of light.

The light then turned into a bright mirror.

Three people were clearly reflected: Lin Hanyu, Lin Zhuyun, and the middle-aged man.

They all looked up at the sky, together with stunning expressions.

Miles away, on top of a mountain far from the Dark Moon City, Lin Hanyu and another elder of the Cold Shadows Sect all looked towards the sky.

The clear sky was suddenly stained with red.

Then, An Ziqing’s beautiful face appeared in the bloody sky.

Her face looked down from above, like a god looking down at the mortal world.

“The Divine Blood Sect is working here at the Dark Moon City. Please, our fellow cultivators from the Cold Shadows Sect, stay away, and never come back!”

An Ziqing’s boomy voice came from the sky. “And also, the young master of the Yu Clan is spotted by the Divine Blood Sect. So, I recommend those of you from the Cold Shadows Sect to stop playing those low-level tricks in front of my face!”

After these words, the sky returned to normal.

Lin Hanyu and Lin Zhuyun looked at each other, speechless.

“Her name is An Ziqing. When I went to the Yu Clan, I saw that she was Yu Yuan’s maid.” Lin Zhuyun said finally, and she could not believe what she just saw. “Casting her spirit more than miles away from her body, that just proves that she is not an ordinary maid.”

She suddenly remembered at Yu Clan when Yin Jue broke and tried to destroy Ning Yue’s formation.

At that time, he even wanted to kill An Ziqing?

Just thinking about it made her shudder in fear.

“She is at least at the Realm of Yin God.” Liu Wei, the elder from the Cold Shadows Sect, said. He was sent here by his sect to investigate Lu Xun’s death and to settle the dispute between the Lin Clan and the Yu Clan. He continued, “A Yin God serving the Yu Clan as a maid?”

Lin Zhuyun sighed softly, and said, “I don’t know much about her either.”

“It seems that Lu Xun has died in vain.” Liu Wei shrugged and determined that his mission was over. “Lu Xun instructed Yin Jue to attack the young master of the Yu Clan twice, yet it’s a pity that he has never noticed his powerful servant.”

“Elder Liu, what about avenging our humiliation at the Yu Clan?” Lin Hanyu looked at him blankly.

“Are you crazy?” Liu Wei frowned. “Use your brain and think about this.”

Lin Hanyu didn’t dare to speak another word.

“The Divine Blood Sect of the northern Land of Extinction is no weaker than the Cold Shadows Sect.” Liu Wei said quietly, “A Yin God of the Divine Blood Sect serving him as a maid… It is not evident for you yet? The seventeen years that young master has been through most likely has something to do with the Divine Blood Sect as well.”

“A person showing such talent…”

Liu Wei paused for a second, looked at Lin Zhuyun, then said, “A person of such talent will probably have a bright future in front of him.”

He wanted to say that the way the Divine Blood Sect was treating Yu Yuan meant that Yu Yuan’s importance to the Divine Blood Sect was much greater than that of Lin Zhuyun to the Cold Shadows Sect.

If Lin Zhuyun was considered a future pillar of the sect, then Yu Yuan must be the secret treasure of the Divine Blood Sect.

Yu Yuan might even be regarded as one of the candidates as their future leader!

If the Cold Shadows Sect decided to step in any further, the Divine Blood Sect would likely take it as a serious offense, and bloody battles would be inevitable.

“I understand.”

Lin Zhuyun nodded and clutched on to a corner of her shirt, slowly clutching tighter.

Swoosh!

Simultaneously, in another part of the Dark Moon City, a blazing beam of light rose into the sky, then pouring down like a waterfall of flames.

The flames slammed right onto the blood-red arm in the sky.

That part of the sky lit up under in the magnificent spiritual light, bright enough to blind someone’s eyes.

In the depths of the flames, fairy-like runes, constantly changing in an arrangement, combined into many formations, resisting the bright red arm.

“The Red Devil Sect!”

Liu Wei’s eyes changed as he was seeing this, “The tiny Dark Moon City is covered with mysteries. First, the Divine Blood Sect intending to demolish the city, then the Red Devil Sect coming to interfere. These two sects have never been in peace, might they be using the city as a battlefield?”

Liu Wei felt he could no longer stay here. “Both of you should make plans to get away from the place as soon as possible. Lin Zhuyun, after you return to the Lin Clan, I recommend you to retreat immediately and cultivate using the pills I brought you. After you reach the Dark Burst Realm, the sect will bring you to the Land of Genesis.”

Lin Zhuyun obediently replied, “Yes, sir.”

“Get going!”

…

In the valley of Jinluo Mountain.

“You no longer have to worry about the Cold Shadows Sect and the Lin Clan anymore.”

An Ziqing put the red ball of light back into her sleeves and said to Yu Yuan. “I already told them that you, my young master, have already been spotted by the Divine Blood Sect, and I’m guessing that since these people aren’t idiots, they probably will stay away as much as possible.”

“As for that so-called fiancee of yours…”

While shaking her head, An Ziqing said, “Since she doesn’t want you anyways, then let’s just forget about her. When you enter our sect and cultivate our most advanced methods, she will not worth even a speck of dust in front of your eyes. By then, she will be the one looking up to you.”

The people of the four clans in the Dark Moon City strangely looked at them chatting like old friends.

Huang Fan and Huang Tianyi were among the most confused.

Why did An Ziqing, after revealing her identity, still valued Yu Yuan so much and attempted to bring him to the Divine Blood Sect?

Why did she say she still wanted to serve him as a maid?

What did Yu Yuan have to deserve such praise?

“Forget it, your sect has such a bad reputation, and I don’t like the cultivation methods of yours regardless.” Yu Yuan shook his head, like still talking to a maid that will listen to him. “By the way, don’t think that your plan is a guaranteed success. At least not yet.”

“What can happen now?” An Ziqing smiled cleverly.

Bang!

From a distance away, the large red hand condensed by the blood-colored clouds suddenly blasted into mists.

The crimson sky seemed to be punctured by a beam of flames, leaving behind a large hole in the sky.

The edges of the hole were burning violently.

Many of the small sparks held onto the red edges and were melting the Sacrifice Formation away.
