Chapter 91 The Secret of the Invincible East

Orangutan Beach.

The cold water flows slowly downstream, and the rocks exposed on the shore reflect all kinds of strange shapes.

There was a person with a crane-like figure flying over the water.

Occasionally, strong winds would blow, creating ripples.

Upon closer inspection, the man was just moving quickly on the stone, covering a distance of two meters in an instant, and his steps were uncertain and difficult to grasp.

"The clouds are flying across the sky."

This is the second move of Feiyun Divine Art’s light skill.

"Brush! Brush!"

The man in black robe held a reed in his hand, which he used as a sword. He stabbed two afterimages in the air, making a slight sound of breaking through the air.

It had been over a month since Zhang Yu returned to Pingding City.

It was during this period that a fierce conflict broke out between the Sun Moon Sect and the Zhongxiao Hall.

Elder Tong led the masters of Fenglei Hall and went to Shuntian Prefecture to take charge.

News came back recently that the Divine Cult won a great victory and all the masters of the Zhongxiao Hall were killed. However, for unknown reasons, two captains of the Jinyiwei also died in the process, but the court had no intention of pursuing the matter further.

The dispute in the northern martial arts world has been temporarily settled, and Tong Baixiong should be returning to Pingding City soon.

Zhang Yu practiced "Flying over Chaos Clouds" for half a day, and then sat in front of the reed marsh to meditate and regulate his breathing, circulating the Qi in his body. With each breath, white mist gushed out of his nostrils. He had already broken through the second level of Feiyun Magic, and was about to reach the third level.

After wearing the green jade ring, you can look inward at your Dantian.

In the golden pool, the purple-gold lotus seed had completely cracked open, and its green buds had sprouted out and stuck in the Dantian.

I wonder if other warriors’ Dantian is in the same state.

Or maybe only warriors who possess the "Golden Pool" will have such a strange phenomenon in their dantian.

Zhang Yu had no one to ask.

However, if nothing unexpected happens, there will be someone with the same Golden Pool Dantian on this trip to Guanzhong area.

Strangely enough, since he woke up from the cave in Xuangu Mountain that day, not only did his injured tendons recover, but his internal strength also greatly improved. In recent days, he has opened up major acupoints of the three yin meridians of the hand one after another, and now he has entered the late stage of the armor-breaking realm, which is amazingly fast.

However, for the top martial artists in the world, training requires bravery and diligence. Many masters have achieved great success in martial arts before the age of thirty. If one is like Lin Kun, who is still struggling in the Armor Breaking Realm at the age of fifty, it is unlikely that he will have a great future.

Zhang Yu guessed that his power had greatly increased, probably because of the "Poison Dragon Pill" that Yan Sanniang gave him.

"Poison Dragon Pill? Such a miraculous medicine, where is the poison?"

"If you insist on saying it's poisonous..."

A cloud of mist came out of Zhang Yu's nostrils. He looked down, feeling a little worried.

"The old man said that before the age of 23, he can still run around."

"If I remember correctly, it should be referring to height."

"Why is it running along with me? It's already running halfway and it doesn't show any signs of stopping?"

Zhang Yu suddenly felt angry for no reason. He suddenly thought of Shen Qingjun, the most beautiful girl in Qianhonglou. If Miss Ren was not involved behind the scenes, those two snow-white and delicate arms would be really worth playing with carefully.

Thinking of this, his throat rolled and his crotch became tighter.

"Think of nothing evil! Think of nothing evil!"

Zhang Yu quickly suppressed the evil thoughts in his mind, and used the green jade ring to hold his breath and concentrate again, entering the state of "embracing the origin and keeping oneness, with a clear mind". It took a lot of effort to make the object behave itself.

He opened his eyes and let out a breath.

After this incident, Zhang Yu had no time to practice. He thought to himself, "I don't have enough concentration. I should go to places like Qianhonglou less often to avoid hurting my body."

"It's a pity that Master Qu took Feiyan to visit a friend in the south, otherwise I could ask him for advice on whether there is any music that can alleviate the side effects of the Poison Dragon Pill."

He put on his robe and was about to return to Pingding City.

In the distance, the sound of horse hooves was heard on the official road, and two riders came galloping. They tied their horses to a big tree by the roadside and headed straight for Xingxing Beach. After looking around, they saw that there was no one around, so they walked into the reed marsh.

"Brother Shangguan, what do you want from me? Do you have to talk about it here?"

"There are many eyes and ears in Pingding City. Now is a special moment. We have to be careful."

"Then tell me."

"Miss Ren is back. Someone has seen her in Pingding City. Has Brother Jia heard anything about her?"

Zhang Yu hid in the reeds, motionless like a cicada in autumn.

He recognized the two men; he had seen them both at Tong Baixiong's 60th birthday party.

One of them is the 'Yellow-Faced Master' Jabu.

One of them is the "Eagle Knight" Shangguan Yun.

Jia Bu's face was burnt yellow, and he had two cloth cases hanging around his waist, which contained a pair of judge's pens. He was an elder of the Qinglong Hall, and was originally a deputy incense master of the Fenglei Hall. He had some friendship with Dongfang Bubai before he became famous. Later, Dongfang Bubai became the leader and urgently needed to train his confidants. He took advantage of the opportunity and took over the Qinglong Hall. In the process of fighting against the Taishan Sect in the Qilu area, he made considerable contributions. Two years ago, he was promoted to one of the ten elders, and his name was listed after Tong Baixiong.

"The leader of the Eastern Sect has ordered Miss Ren to stay in Luoyang and not to return to Blackwood Cliff without orders. The leader has been in seclusion for the past few months. When did he send the order to Luoyang?"

"Brother Jia, if she follows orders, why doesn't she go to Blackwood Cliff to pay homage to the leader?"

Jia Bu was shocked. "You mean, Miss Ren came back without permission? This is a serious crime. This is not right. Miss Ren has a sensitive identity and she has always been cautious. What is she going to do this time?"

Shangguan Yun was silent for a while, then he said, "I heard that Huang Boliu, Sima Da and other gang leaders have secretly met with Miss Ren. Changjing Island has thousands of troops, and the Tianhe Gang commands the boatmen and boatmen on the Caohe River, which number tens of thousands. The combined strength of these affiliated gangs should not be underestimated."

Jia Bu frowned, the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was strange: "So what? The Eastern Cult Leader is in charge of Blackwood Cliff, and there is also the antidote to the Three Corpses Brain Pill. Do they want to die? Do they dare to follow Miss Ren in rebellion?"

Jia Bu did not mention Yang Lianting and the three hundred Purple Cloud Guards.

As a high-ranking member of the Divine Religion who came from an orthodox background, no matter if he was respectful on the surface or not, he still looked down on those lucky recruits of the Yang family who had no real military achievements. He believed that they were only promoted by the Eastern Sect Leader to check and balance the old man, and that they were not worthy of the position.

It also greatly undermined the normal merit promotion system of the Divine Religion, causing young disciples to only think about seeking undue favors through flattery.

Shangguan Yun chuckled and said, "Brother Jia, let's not beat around the bush. Is the person sitting on the throne in Chengde Hall the real Eastern Cult Leader?"

Shangguan Yun and Jia Bu, who often walked around Heimu Cliff, had a vague idea about this matter.

Although there was a beaded curtain and the Purple Cloud Guards between them, there were many top internal martial arts masters in the sect and they could still vaguely sense that something was wrong.

Some people secretly speculated that the Eastern Sect Leader had been in seclusion for the past two years, but in fact his real body often left Blackwood Cliff and traveled around. The one in Chengde Hall was just a substitute most of the time.

But Dongfang Bubai is extremely powerful, with unpredictable moods and the ability to tell the truth from lies. Who would dare to risk their life against him?

Shangguan Yun thought to himself, Dongfang Bubai is the leader of the Divine Sect, in charge of most of the martial arts world, and has countless talented people working under him. What could be worth the risk of leaving Black Wood Cliff and doing it personally?
Jia Bu looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who was known as the "Eagle Knight" and suddenly began to doubt that if Miss Ren could win over Huang Boliu and Sima Da, she might be able to win over Shangguan Yun.

Among the ten elders, except Tong Baixiong who has a special identity, all others have taken the Three Corpses Brain Pill.

These people are all top-notch heroes in the martial arts world. Who would be willing to be controlled by others and become a slave on the Black Wood Cliff?

If we take advantage of the absence of Eastern Sect Leader and attack Black Wood Cliff in the name of seizing the antidote to the Three Corpses Brain Pill, even the Ten Elders would be tempted.

Then wouldn’t Shangguan Yun be tempted?
Jabu sensed the potential danger and glanced at the surrounding reeds, thinking that perhaps an expert was lying in ambush.

He asked tentatively, "Are you saying that the Saint Lady might rebel? Should we report this to Blackwood Cliff?"

Shangguan Yun kicked the ball back: "Miss Ren, after all, she was personally canonized by the Eastern Patriarch. Her identity is extraordinary. The information I got is just hearsay, without any hard evidence. Brother Jia has a friendship with Manager Yang. Should I report it? I want you to decide."

This is a multiple-choice question, but it could also be a fatal question.

In Jia Bu's eyes, Shangguan Yun's position is ambiguous.

If he was sent by Ren Yingying to test his attitude, there might be countless experts lying in ambush in the surrounding reeds.

Jabu looked toward the towering black mountain.

There seemed to be only one voice between heaven and earth.

The East is undefeated!

These four words seemed to echo in his mind like magic.

Jabu was horrified, terrified that he had just developed a heart of betrayal.

"Report the truth!"

He would rather die here than face the consequences of betraying Dongfang Bubai.

Jia Bu placed his hand on the judge's pen, and after saying these four words, he felt a chill on his back. In his mind, the scene of Shangguan Yun suddenly drawing his sword and stabbing, and the scene of masters ambushing Miss Ren flying out from all directions in the reeds, appeared.

The reed marsh was very quiet, except for the hundred-meter-high Blackwood Cliff on the other side of the Orangutan Beach, which was silently watching everything.

Shangguan Yun looked at Jia Bu and smiled meaningfully, "What Brother Jia said is exactly what I think. Let's go up the mountain immediately to see Chief Steward Yang."

Even though Dongfang Bubai is not at Black Wood Cliff, his remaining power still awes people.

These four words are the stabilizing force of the Sun and Moon Sect.

"From what Shangguan Yun said, Dongfang Bubai left Blackwood Cliff? Where did he go?"

Seeing the two men crossing the Xingxing Beach, Zhang Yu came out from the reed marsh. He sighed. The last "Anti-Yang Operation" was, after all, an internal struggle within the Dongfang Bubai camp, and it was a tough fight, but it was soon settled.

This time, it seemed that the Ren family was testing Dongfang Bubai. If the conflict broke out completely, one could imagine how terrible and bloody it would cause. His identity was already embarrassing, and if he stayed in Heimu Cliff, it would inevitably be a big deal.

In the evening, Zhang Yu returned to Taiping Inn. When he reached the door of his room, he saw Qi Queqiao walking towards him hurriedly with a happy look on his face.

"Brother Zhang, my godfather has returned home and he wants to see you."

　The previous chapter has been modified.

　　I originally wanted to do a time flashback, with the events in the following chapters happening before Zhang Yu left. But to avoid confusion, I changed it to the second to last paragraph of the previous chapter.
