Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7765
Chapter 7682: Ci Feng
The small team led by Qianhuan Xuanzheng perished before even achieving their goal.
Meanwhile, Weisheng Moran continued refining the remaining Cosmic God essences, steadily improving his strength.
Previously, Li Tianming and the others had waited several years for a suitable target, a rather long time indeed.
But now, with the Yi’an Bow as bait, the next target would surely appear sooner!
Therefore, Yin Chen began to continuously monitor this ‘bait’!
…
Somewhere outside the Wusheng Qianhuan Sect.
A red-haired youth was embracing a woman in a blue dress, the two strolling through the star-studded universe.
The red-haired youth was tall, with prominent brow bones, piercing eyes, and an imposing aura.
However, he appeared quite young, most likely a disciple of a sect.
The woman in the blue dress had slender, willow-leaf eyebrows and watery eyes, possessing a gentle and endearing charm. Though petite, she was perfectly proportioned, her graceful figure leaving much to the imagination.
“Cifeng, I heard things haven’t been peaceful in the sect lately. Maybe we shouldn’t go too far this time?” the woman in the blue dress whispered.
“Aunt Mei, you’re supposed to be an ‘Illusionist,’ how can you be so timid?” the red-haired youth mocked.
“Hmph! You disrespectful child, daring to laugh at me? Don’t you have any respect for your elders?” the woman in the blue dress pouted and pinched his arm hard.
The red-haired youth ignored her retort and laughed, “To be honest, we don’t need to be this cautious. Yes, that Li Tianming is a bit strange, and I heard some people in the sect have been captured, but this is our sect’s main gate! Even if he’s wicked, would he kidnap our people right here in our own backyard?”
“Anyway, better safe than sorry. You shameless fellow are always too bold. Be careful you don’t suffer a crushing defeat outside one day!” the woman in the blue dress snorted.
“Fail outside? Impossible. I’ll only fail here with Aunt Mei,” the red-haired youth chuckled.
The woman in the blue dress was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then blushed and slapped the other woman’s shoulder, “You little rascal, Qian Huan Cifeng, you want a beating, don’t you!”
The two playfully bickered as if no one else was around, seemingly fascinated by this taboo between junior and senior!
However, just as they were playing around, something slowly floated in from afar.
At this moment, Aunt Mei was embracing Qian Huan Cifeng, her chin resting on his shoulder.
Seeing the Yi An Bow, radiating nine-colored light and truly deserving of the title of a top-tier treasure, appear alone, Aunt Mei’s almond-shaped eyes widened instantly.
“This…this…Cifeng, look at this!” Aunt Mei was almost incoherent.
Qian Huan Cifeng was somewhat surprised, then looked in the direction she was pointing.
Immediately afterward, his pupils shrank, utterly shocked!
“The Yi An Bow? How could it be here?” Qian Huan Cifeng said, trembling.
This Yi’an Bow was known to almost everyone in the Wusheng Qianhuan Sect, because its owner, Qianhuan Xuanzheng, was highly talented and also the most favored junior under the Kun Gu Ancestor.
In terms of cultivation, Qianhuan Xuanzheng benefited from the treasure’s fame; in terms of popularity, however, the Yi’an Bow benefited from Qianhuan Xuanzheng’s fame.
But now, such a thing was just drifting around like cosmic trash?
This scene almost shattered their understanding!
After Qianhuan Cifeng and Aunt Mei carefully observed their surroundings and confirmed that no one was around, they approached and examined the Yi’an Bow.
At the same time, they both activated their Illusionary God Power to block out other people’s gazes!
“Aunt Mei, we’re really rich now!” Qianhuan Cifeng looked at the Yi’an Bow, his eyes flashing with greed.
“What do you mean?” Aunt Mei looked up at him, her expression changing.
“Is there even a question? This is a gift from heaven. From now on, this thing is ours. We no longer need to hide from the world, nor do we need to grovel before the strong. This is our confidence for the rest of our lives!” Qian Huan Cifeng’s eyes burned brightly.
Faced with such a treasure, he found it difficult to remain calm!
“But…” Aunt Mei frowned slightly, seemingly hesitant.
“No buts. Since this thing has appeared before us, this is our opportunity!” Qian Huan Cifeng said, holding her soft hand.
“No, we are ultimately members of the Wusheng Qianhuan Sect. This thing is too easily recognizable and could bring trouble in the end!” Aunt Mei shook off his hand, gritting her teeth slightly.
“Are you really going to give up this opportunity to soar to the top?” Qian Huan Cifeng looked into Aunt Mei’s eyes and said slowly.
That look seemed to touch the heart of this elder once again!
However, she pursed her lips slightly, ultimately remaining steadfast. Instead, she patiently advised, “Cifeng, choosing to hoard the Yi’an Bow won’t bring us much benefit. After all, this thing can’t be converted into cultivation level. You must understand the principle of ‘possessing a treasure is a crime.’ Without the corresponding strength, possessing this thing will only harm us!”
Qianhuan Cifeng fell into deep thought upon hearing this.
After a long while, he finally sighed slightly and relented.
“Aunt Mei, you’re right. I was blinded by greed,” Qianhuan Cifeng said slowly. “Since we won’t take this thing ourselves, what should we do with it? We can’t just pretend we didn’t see it, can we?” Aunt Mei
pondered for a moment, then said firmly, “Return this thing to the sect elders and let them worry about it. As long as we hand it over, everything else will be none of our business!” “
But… if we hand over our identities, it means handing them over to the sect leader, which is the Ronggu Ancestor lineage. I heard that their higher-ups are having a falling out with the Kungu Ancestor. Is that appropriate?” Qianhuan Cifeng was caught in a dilemma.
“That’s not our business. Let’s just pretend we don’t know anything about their conflict,” Aunt Mei said slowly.
“Alright, let’s take it back first,” Qian Huan Cifeng nodded finally.
The two exchanged a glance and then returned to the sect with the Yi An Bow.
Back at the sect, they handed the treasure to their closest elders.
As expected, every elder was terrified.
Qian Huan Xuanzheng’s identity was different from ordinary people, yet he had vanished without a trace, and his weapon had appeared alone.
All of this inevitably led to speculation: what had happened?
Qian Huan Cifeng and Aunt Mei, of course, had their own guesses, and the answer was all too obvious.
Qian Huan Xuanzheng had likely encountered some kind of accident!
But who had acted?
Was he still alive?
What was the other party’s purpose?
They had no idea.
As time passed, the Yi’an Bow was passed down through the ranks, eventually reaching the hands of the sect leader, Qianhuan Dingtian.
The moment Qianhuan Dingtian received the bow, a glint flashed in his eyes.
“That kid Qianhuan Xuanzheng is probably in grave danger…” Qianhuan Dingtian deduced his fate.
Qianhuan Xinyin was beside him at that moment, somewhat incredulous.
A member of her clan who had argued with her not long ago had simply vanished without a trace!
Although the different factions had differing opinions, they weren’t necessarily as hostile as enemies, wishing each other dead.
“How could this be? Who dared to be so bold?” Qianhuan Xinyin said in shock.
Qian Huan Dingtian’s gaze was indifferent as he looked at the messenger below and asked, “Where did you find this thing?”
An old man bowed and then respectfully replied, “Reporting to the Sect Master, it was found by a young junior in the clan not far outside the sect. He immediately thought of handing it over to the sect.”
“Brother, what should we do now? The other party is far too arrogant, daring to make a move outside the sect!” Qian Huan Xinyin said coldly.
“Let’s go, call a couple more people, and go take a look together.” Qian Huan Dingtian glanced at Qian Huan Xinyin, then looked at the messenger again, “Also, ask the person who found the Yi An Bow for its exact location.”
“Yes!” The old man bowed and withdrew.
Qian Huan Xinyin blinked and said, “Brother, should I call ‘Liu Yun’ and ‘Jing Yue’? With these two Supreme Elders, that should be enough, right?”
“Whatever you want.” Qian Huan Dingtian merely glanced at her and said coldly.
