Late at night, the bright moonlight spills over the entire Chonghe Peak, revealing a magnificent view of this main peak of the True Martial Sect that is different from that of the day.
The Tianxuan Pavilion, where Qingyu lives, is located in the most lighted area and is completely bathed in moonlight.
This pavilion, where the Sect Leader lives, is not actually lived in by Qingyu very often. Someone who doesn’t even have time to sleep doesn’t need a place to live on a regular basis.
In fact, Qing Yu spent more time in the Taiyuan Pond and the Taiji Hall than in the Tianxuan Pavilion.
And since Qing Yu had been staying by the Taiyuan Pond at the peak for some time, the pavilion had been unoccupied for a long time again.
But this very night, the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion was visited by an unexpected guest.
A black shadow crept into the Pavilion, entering from the first floor platform and turning into a quiet room.
The quiet room was not decorated with anything but a Daoist platform with a Taiji Eight Trigrams diagram as its face, which was placed quietly in the quiet room.
On top of the dao platform were two volumes of scriptures, placed in a casual manner as if their owner did not care about them at all, and the pages were not even closed.
The black shadow carefully groped its way over, and it took nearly a quarter of an hour to do so.
When he finally reached the Daoist platform, the black shadow’s body visibly moved, as if he was breathing a sigh of relief.
Closing the scripture, the darkness did not block the dark shadow’s vision, and he could clearly see the words on the writing.
“Scroll of Heaven” and “Scroll of Earth”.
These were the names of the two scriptures, and they also represented parts of a certain supreme divine skill.
The black shadow was delighted and immediately put the two scriptures into his arms. But at that very moment, another figure appeared at the door of the quiet room.
“Senior Brother Xuan Lin, I didn’t expect it to be you who came here to steal the scriptures!”
The words were sighing and lamenting, full of a sense of despondency, but the black shadow who heard this voice was aghast in his heart.
Just as the black shadow could see the scriptures in the darkness, the figure at the door could also clearly cut the face of the black shadow.
“The Master has treated you well, why do you commit this treachery?”
Xuan Feng stepped into the middle of the quiet room and looked at Xuan Lin with a look of pain in his eyes.
“Ha, a villain who killed his master is worthy of my allegiance? And he presumes to control me with brainwashing, and this is not considered thin?”
The anger in Xuan Lin’s heart seemed to have been suppressed for a long time, and when he was discovered, he did not immediately flee, but instead he laughed in anger, his words full of ridicule.
“Xuan Fa is also a traitor to the True Martial Sect, and the Sect Leader did the right thing. The True Martial Sect is flourishing under the leadership of the Sect Master, and we are also impressed by it, O Brother, why do you persist in your obsession?”
Xuan Feng slowly stepped closer, “You can’t escape.”
“Qing Yu is badly injured, he can’t even protect himself, why can’t I escape.”
At this point, Xuan Lin seemed to have triggered some taboo, and immediately welcomed Xuan Feng’s strong attack.
“Heaven’s Elegy.”
“Cracking of the Yu Xuan.”
The formless and phased Heaven’s Arcane Qi formed an arcane diagram and spread out, surging with such force that it caused the pavilion to tremble greatly.
Xuan Lin was not far behind, and the first form of “Cracking Scroll” came out in response, with the energy of destruction and cracking impacting on the Heavenly Mystic Qi.
“Heaven’s Lament.”
As the strong stance continued, Xuanfeng Palm sent out pure white Qi, like clouds and blades, which converged into a single blast.
The powerful qi attacked the air and Xuan Lin met it with his palm and was sent flying in the air.
However, this was exactly what Xuan Lin wanted, so he used his palms to transport his yin and yang qi and flew back with the force of his palms, trying to avoid being injured by the powerful move and flying out of Chonghe Peak.
Then, a pair of wings broke out of Xuan Lin’s back and spread rapidly. Under the effect of his true qi, Xuan Lin glided downwind with his organ wings, and in a short while only tiny figures were visible.
“The Mo family’s organ wings, quite well prepared.”
At this point, Xuan Feng’s face was no longer the iron blue it had been before, but was instead calm, and he even had the leisure to comment on Xuan Lin’s preparation.
“Quickly, quickly, quickly! Everyone get over here!”
In the night sky, there were faint sounds of shouting, that was the disciples on patrol hearing the loud noise of the pavilion being breached and rushing to check it out.
Although Qing Yu did not live in this pavilion, it was the residence of the Sect Leader, so it was not long before someone arrived with a long arm.
“Uncle Xuanfeng, what has happened here?” The leader of the group shouted loudly.
“Something big.”
Xuanfeng turned around and said in a loud voice, “Heavenly Void Peak Master Xuan Lin has entered the Master’s residence at night and stolen the most precious treasure, betraying the True Martial Sect, pa*s the order down, mobilise the men from all the peaks and follow the poor Taoist in pursuit.”
“This ——”
The patrolling disciple was immediately confused, one of the seven peaks of True Martial Arts had a peak master who had defected, the impact of such a thing was not really something that a disciple could bear.
But at least he was the disciple leading the night patrol, and immediately came back to his senses and said, “Disciple will go and inform the peak masters of the peaks.”
No matter what, it was always right to inform the peak masters of the peaks. Now that the Sect Leader was in seclusion, it was the Peak Leaders who were in charge. It was impossible that there were still peak masters who had defected, right?
“Hurry up! Go!”
At the cry of the leader disciple, the lights of the Seven Peaks of True Martial once again lit up and spread rapidly, with torches moving inside and out, as the entire True Martial Sect woke up at that moment.
————————
Three hours later, the sky dawned.
In the Taiji Hall, four of the five remaining peak masters, apart from Xuan Zhen, were gathered here again, each with an unusually heavy face.
“Where is Senior Xuanzheng?” Xuan Ming, the Peak Master of Chiming Peak, looked around for a moment and couldn’t help but ask.
Xuan Zheng, the Peak Master of Zheng Yang Peak, was not here at this time, and there were only four Peak Masters present at this time.
“I think you should all understand Xuanzheng’s situation, it cannot be ruled out that he is like Xuan Lin, out of control, so I have brought him under control and will not allow him to leave Zheng Yang Peak for now until the Sect Master or Senior Sister Xuan Zhen comes out.” Xuanfeng returned.
Xuan Zheng and Xuan Lin were both peak masters who still refused to submit even after Qing Yu’s ascension to the throne, and they were loyal to the previous Sect Leader Xuan Chen and Qing Yu’s cheap master Xuan Fa respectively.
Qing Yu used a secret method to brainwash them into submission. Now that Xuan Lin is out of control, Xuan Zheng is also forced to guard against them.
All those present understood the situation, so they all nodded in silence and said no more.
“I don’t think you all know the details,” Xuan Feng continued, “Xuan Lin took advantage of the Sect Leader’s seclusion to sneak into the Heavenly Mystic Pavilion and stole the two Scrolls of Heaven and the Scroll of Earth. I don’t need to say much about the importance of these two scrolls of scripture, do I?
Senior Brother Xuan Goblet and I chased them all the way for over thirty miles, but in the end, the traitor escaped, and the leakage of the two sutras was inevitable.”
“Then why don’t you let the Sect Leader, Senior Sister, or the two Senior Uncles go out to chase them down?” Xuan Ming asked.
“It is too late to say this now,” Xuanfeng said, “Earlier, it was inconvenient to disturb the Sect Leader because he was in seclusion at a critical juncture. Now that Xuan Lin has escaped, let us go to the peak first and confess our sins to the Sect Leader.”
