The light of day breaks and a haze of mist fills the top of Chonghe Peak in the early morning.
Xuanfeng and his party made their way up through the morning dew, stopping before the last white cloud of smoke.
“You have come here, uncles, for the stolen Scrolls of Heaven and Earth, right?”
Before Xuanfeng could say anything, a small voice came out of the cloud of smoke, revealing the purpose of Xuanfeng and the others.
Xuanfeng was not the least bit surprised, after all, last night’s commotion was quite big, and he even went to lead people to chase them for three hours, so it would be strange if Qing Yu did not know about it.
“Exactly,” Xuan Feng said in a respectful voice, “Xuan Lin entered the Heavenly Mystic Pavilion at night and stole two scrolls of scripture, and has already fled the sect at this time. I hope that Sect Leader forgives me for being unfavourable in the pursuit.”
“This is an oversight on the part of the Poor Dao, placing the Armour of War Scripture in the Tianxuan Pavilion at will.”
The muffled voice in the clouds of smoke did not sound annoyed, it was like gurgling water, calm and unusual. However, in the next moment, an awe-inspiring aura appeared in the clouds, revealing its intention to kill.
“But Xuan Lin’s betrayal is annoying, so he must be captured, dead or alive.”
The resolute killing intent, as well as the decisive command, caused Xuan Feng to immediately reply, “Xuan Feng understands.”
“Go on then, there will be people on the Northern Zhou side to help as well.”
As the words fell, the clouds surged up, and when the clouds cleared in front of everyone’s eyes, they saw that they were already out of the place enveloped in clouds and mist.
“This ——” Xuan Ming looked at the place where he was standing in amazement, his face full of disbelief, “This is simply unbelievable, we have retreated straight back here.”
This place was at least two hundred feet away from the place where they had just stood, and their group had actually moved a distance of two hundred feet in an instant.
“Originally I thought that the rumours from the outside world were not necessarily true, but perhaps Sect Leader had encountered some difficulties, but now it seems that Sect Leader has greatly improved his strength and is consolidating.” Xuan Goblet also sighed with emotion.
The events of the past few days had been rather perverse, and although they did not say so with their mouths, they were still a little anxious in their hearts, but now it was a direct strengthening of their confidence.
“Sect Leader’s divine powers are unparalleled, it is not for us to speculate, we just need to do our own thing.” Xuanfeng picked up the words.
The group once again descended the mountain to prepare for the pursuit of Xuan Lin. However, they looked even more uplifted than before, without the even somewhat obvious unease they had felt before.
This change was pa*sed on by some ears to those who had a desire to know.

Hou Qian Imperial City, Imperial Study Room.
Ji Chengtian was holding the information that had just arrived, his face was devoid of joy and sorrow, and he could not see any ups and downs in his state of mind. He only heard him say, “The scouts have reported that after Xuanfeng and the others met Qing Yu at the top of Chonghe Peak, they seem to have a backbone and are no longer worried. Are you sure that Qing Yu is seriously injured?”
“The old man waved his hand and said, “I used the Blood Ritual to ask for Heaven once, and my life expectancy was reduced again.
Qing Yu was definitely hit by the Sun-Raptor Arrow, of that I am sure.
The fact that he has not stepped forward yet, just to give Xuanfeng and the others confidence, while allowing the people below to be on edge, is even more proof that he is not at his full strength.”
“This is also courteous.” Ji Chengtian nodded his head and said.
This kind of inspiring trick had been played by old foxes like them quite a lot. If they were seriously injured in another situation, they would also use such tricks.
Of course, it was also possible that this was another illusion, a trick of Qing Yu’s.
It was possible that Qing Yu had sensed the foolishness of the others and wanted to play the trick so that his enemies would automatically jump out.
In any case, for the two suspicious old foxes, there are two sides to this story.
Qing Yu was seriously injured, or he was uninjured, both were possible, the difference was just the odds. Judging by the divination of the Old Man of Time and Destiny, the odds of the former were now high, and even had the momentum of being certain.
“However, even a rotten ship has three thousand nails, even if Qing Yu is really seriously injured, he is still not an easy man to fight. We still need to draw more people to force and die to pave the way for us.” Elder Timeless Life said.
“That’s fine.”
The two of them had sort of witnessed Qing Yu’s unnatural rate of becoming stronger, and their scorn for this person was simply too deep. Even if they were still basically sure that the other party had been seriously injured, they could not be the first to go through the thunder themselves, choosing instead to find other scapegoats.
The fact is that Qing Yu has made a lot of enemies over the years, and there are many strong ones among them (the weak ones have long been eliminated by Qing Yu), so it’s not a problem to find a few unlucky ones to go to the lightning.
“Xuan Lin stole two scrolls of scriptures and defected, let’s use this as a testing point.”
So, the two of them settled on this. They used Xuan Lin as bait to catch a fish that would devour people to go to the lightning, and at the same time, this was a further test for Qing Yu.
————————
A little later than Ji Chengtian and the old man of time life, but not too much later, other forces also got the news of Xuan Lin’s defection.
They were not as well-informed as Elder Time-Life, and still had doubts about the identities of Qing Yu and Xuan Tian, and even and One Page Book, but their concern about Xuan Lin’s defection was no less than that of Elder Time-Life.
This was because of the two scrolls of scripture in Xuan Lin’s possession, the ‘Scroll of Heaven’ and the ‘Scroll of Earth’.
Qing Yu is a legend of this era. He has reached his present position and strength in less than ten years with a humble body, which is unprecedented.
Nowadays, there is no one who would not covet the greatness of his learning.
Even if he doesn’t learn the Armour and Martial Arts Scripture, it would be good to use it to study Qing Yu’s background and come up with a way to counteract it.
Therefore, Xuan Lin’s whereabouts alone were being watched by everyone in the world. The royal family of the Great Qian, the Palace of Ghosts, the Jiang family of the Eastern Region, the Witch Clan of the Southern Region, the Northern Zhou, the Devil’s Path, and even the PeaC*ck Remnant hiding in the Western Region were all very concerned about this.
Some of them wanted to seize the scripture, others wanted to return it to its rightful owner, while others had other unknown intentions.
Different minds, but with the same goal in mind. That was to capture Xuan Lin and take the two scrolls of scripture from him.
For a time, the world was in turmoil because of Xuan Lin, or the two scriptures in his hands. Greed, lust for power and killing intent—— these two scrolls of scripture touched the hearts and minds of countless people.
“Ding, the host has made up his own plot and opened the plot ‘Scourge of the Armor’ to scourge the world with the Armor and Martial Scriptures. The scourge caused by the ‘Bingjia Martial Scripture’ will be counted by the system and eventually converted into the corresponding villain points to be awarded to the host. Please also ask the host to be more of a demon and earn more points for more work.”
At this moment, the mechanical voice of the system was so pleasant to Qing Yu’s ears.
