I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 699

Chapter 699: Easily captured, the old doctor travels

“So it’s this guy.”

Hearing the voice and the massive, magical hand gripping the Void Flying Boat,

Lu Qing suddenly remembered who this person was.

Back then, he and Xiao Li and the others had just emerged from their home world, transcending the spatial turbulence and entering the Great Yuan Immortal Realm.

Passing through a small world, they were ambushed by a Yuan Shen realm cultivator who attempted to forcibly suppress the Void Flying Boat.

Had he not reacted quickly and used the Void Teleport technique to escape, he would have been nearly trapped.

That incident was the greatest crisis he had faced since leaving his home world.

After all these years, he had almost forgotten about it.

Unexpectedly, upon returning, he encountered this person again.

“A dog can’t change its nature,” Lu Qing shook his head.

“Ah Qing, what happened?”

The trembling startled Xiao Li and the others from their meditation in the Flying Boat’s quiet room, and they all rushed out to inquire what was going on.

“Nothing, it’s that guy from back then, trying to attack us again.”

“That guy from back then?”

Xiao Li and Wu Xing were startled, then remembered.

“Ah Qing, are you talking about that powerful Yuanshen who nearly captured us back then?”

“Yes, that’s the guy. I’ll go out and meet him. You guys stay here.”

Lu Qing nodded slightly, then slowly disappeared.

“Ah Qing, are you going to deal with that guy? This is going to be a good show!”

Xiao Li immediately became excited and ran over to watch.

Outside the Void Flying Boat, an old man with narrow eyes, a hooked nose, and a gloomy appearance

was hovering in the starry sky, using a black magic palm to capture the Void Flying Boat.

The gloomy old man was filled with surprise.

He had never expected to encounter this silver flying boat again after decades.

To be honest, he had been terrified for a while after the boy escaped.

The sword energy he unleashed was very similar to the legendary sect.

But after many years, he still did not receive an explanation from the elders, and then he realized that his guess was wrong.

If the other party were truly a disciple of the legendary Sword Dao Holy Land, given that place’s protectiveness, someone would have likely come looking for trouble long ago.

Realizing his mistake, the gloomy old man began to feel frustrated again.

That silver flying boat from that day was clearly an extremely rare spatial treasure, yet he had let the other party escape due to his carelessness.

Since then, the gloomy old man has periodically wandered the starry sky, hoping to encounter the silver flying boat again.

He knew his thoughts were ridiculous.

Anyone who had experienced a life-or-death crisis would simply flee, never approaching.

Yet, a glimmer of hope kept him gazing at the starry sky from time to time.

Unexpectedly, today, he would actually encounter the silver flying boat again.

Although it looked less shabby, he recognized it instantly: it was the same flying boat that had escaped him that year.

“As expected, heaven favors me. This treasure, which is meant to be mine, will eventually return to my hands,”

the gloomy old man thought, filled with joy, hoping to prevent the flying boat from escaping again.

He immediately mobilized his prized magical weapon, combined with his renowned Daoist techniques, to completely suppress the flying boat, denying it any chance of escape

. However, despite suppressing the Void Boat, the gloomy old man attempted to drag it into his own world,

only to find that no matter how he channeled his magical power, he could not budge.

The boat seemed to be fixed in the void, swaying slightly at first, but completely motionless.

Just as the gloomy old man was startled, he saw a figure suddenly fly out of the boat and land in front of him.

Then, he saw the figure flick his sleeve, and before he could react, the massive palm strike he had unleashed was shattered.

Simultaneously, an irresistible force struck him, toppling him over, sending him tumbling through the starry sky.

In a split second, he had already tumbled a hundred miles.

“How is this possible?”

the gloomy old man shuddered, realizing he had hit a wall, encountering an unimaginable being.

Without a second thought, he energized his mana at breakneck speed, transforming into a stream of light with the force of a tumbling movement, attempting to escape into his home world.

“Stop.”

Just as the gloomy old man transformed into the light, a faint voice echoed through his soul, and he found himself completely immobilized.

The entire space froze, becoming as solid as a solid rock.

Not only did it force him out of his state of transformation, but it also left him frozen like a bug in ice, unable to move no matter how he mobilized his mana.

“Old fellow, I was just passing through this place back then, and I nearly fell for you.

I’d almost forgotten about it, but I didn’t expect you to pop up again.

It’s truly a case of Heaven’s will, though I can still survive, but I can’t.”

Under the gloomy old man’s horrified gaze, Lu Qing stepped towards him through the void.

The old man’s eyes widened.

From what Lu Qing said, this person before him was the same Jindan-level youth from that time in the flying boat?

But how is this possible!

Only a few decades had passed. How could that mere Jindan realm cultivator who could only escape his clutches back then now possess such terrifying power? Even he couldn’t sense his true realm!

The gloomy old man looked at Lu Qing in shock, his heart filled with disbelief.

At this moment, the gloomy old man’s message appeared in Lu Qing’s field of vision.

Suddenly, a strange look flashed in his eyes. He

had originally wanted to smack the gloomy old man to death, but that changed suddenly.

He grabbed with a large hand, creating a Five Elements Palm, and captured the gloomy old man.

With the penetration of his magic power, he completely suppressed all of his strength, then threw him into the Lihuo Cauldron and returned to the Void Flying Boat.

“Ah Qing, aren’t you going to kill that old guy?”

Xiao Li asked in confusion after returning to the Void Flying Boat.

“No hurry, this old man seems a little strange. When we get home, we will slowly interrogate him and then decide whether he lives or dies. Right now, it’s more important to hurry on.”

Lu Qing explained, and when he thought of the information in the note he had just found out, a strange look appeared in his eyes.

“That’s right, it’s more important to go home.”

Xiao Li didn’t ask any more questions after hearing this.

It knew that no matter what Ah Qing did, he had a reason.

Since he thought it was better not to kill the old guy for the time being, there must be a reason.

Soon, the Void Flying Boat turned into a silver light again and flew away.

After more than ten breaths, suddenly more than ten figures flew out from the small world below, looking at the direction where the Void Flying Boat left, their faces full of fear.

“Who is that young man? He even captured our ancestor with one move!”

“No matter who he is, he is someone we can’t afford to offend.”

“The ancestor has been captured. What should we do now?”

“What else can we do? Even the ancestor is no match for the enemy. How can we possibly catch up?”

“I mean, if those righteous cultivators knew the ancestor was captured, they would probably cause chaos.”

“So what? The ancestor is immortal. Even if his main body is destroyed, he will be resurrected directly from the blood pool. Those righteous cultivators will not be able to cause any trouble.” “

In short, no matter what, keep this secret for now. Don’t let the Righteous Alliance know about it for the time being.”

“Understood.”

Lu Qing could naturally sense that while he was capturing the cold old man, some spiritual consciousness was watching from the small world below.

However, invading a small world is no simple matter.

He didn’t have much time for such matters at the moment, so he ignored it.

The most important thing for him now was to return home first.

…

Homeworld, Jiuli Village.

“Old doctor, are you saying you’re going out?”

Wei Shanhai looked at the old doctor, surprised.

“Yes.” The old doctor nodded slightly.

“But, old doctor, why did you suddenly make this decision? The demonic cultivators are rampant outside right now. All sects and forces are in danger. Even the Holy Mountain has closed its doors. It’s very dangerous for you to go out now,”

Wei Shanhai advised.

“It’s precisely because the demonic cultivators are rampant and the righteous path is declining that I want to go out,” the old doctor said slowly.

“After yesterday’s battle with the demonic cultivator, I understand one thing.

” “The demonic cultivators may not be as powerful as I imagined. I barely have the strength to fight them now.

” “In that case, how can I watch the world suffer and remain indifferent?”

“Someone has to do something. Otherwise, there will be no hope for the people of this world.”

Wei Shanhai fell silent.

He knew the old doctor was right, but he also knew what this trip meant: a road fraught with danger and thorns.

After a moment’s silence, Wei Shanhai spoke, “But, old doctor, if you’re away, what will happen to Jiuli Village? If that demon from yesterday returns, Xinghe and I wouldn’t be able to resist on our own.” “

Don’t worry about that. I’ve sent someone to take my place and oversee Jiuli Village’s formation. With him here, even if that demon returns, Jiuli Village will be safe,” the old doctor said.

“Let someone else oversee Jiuli Village’s formation?”

Wei Shanhai was stunned. He couldn’t imagine anyone with the old doctor’s level of cultivation, capable of repelling such a powerful demon with his formation.

“Yes, judging by the time, he should be arriving soon.”

The old doctor looked up at the sky.

Wei Shanhai also gazed upwards.

The next moment, his eyes narrowed as he saw a streak of light fly out from the depths of the Shiwan Mountains.

It reached the sky above Jiuli Village and suddenly descended, landing in the courtyard, revealing a figure.

From beginning to end, the Jiuli Village formations were completely ineffective, offering no attempt to stop them.

When Wei Shanhai saw the figure’s face clearly, his eyes widened in disbelief.

“Young Master Lu?!”

It was the figure that had flown from the Shiwan Mountains, and its face was an exact replica of Lu Qing.

But hadn’t Lu Qing already left this world? When had he returned?

Wei Shanhai’s heart was filled with surprise.

But he soon realized something was wrong.

He saw that this “Lu Qing” showed no emotion upon seeing him, a look of indifference.

He didn’t even spare him a glance, simply bowing to the old doctor, “Master.”

“Jiuli Village is in your care. I need to go out for a while.”

“Understood, Master,” the figure nodded slightly.

“Old Doctor, this is…”

Wei Shanhai finally confirmed that the young man before him, though identical in appearance and even in a similar aura

, was not the same person.

“This is a clone left behind by Ah Qing before he left. For years, he’s been cultivating within the Shiwan Mountains, rarely seen, so you’re unaware of it,”

the old doctor explained.

“Young Master Lu’s clone?”

Wei Shanhai suddenly realized.

He hadn’t expected Lu Qing to have left such a backup plan when he left.

This must be Lu Qing’s final trump card for Jiuli Village. If it weren’t for the rampant demonic cultivators outside, the old doctor probably wouldn’t have summoned it.

“After I leave, Jiuli Village will be left to Ah Qing’s protection, so you don’t have to worry about its safety,” the old doctor said.

“With Young Master Lu here, this place will be safe,” Wei Shanhai said immediately.

Although the young man before him was only a clone of Lu Qing,

Wei Shanhai still sensed an immensely dangerous aura from him.

Clearly, this clone of Lu Qing was equally formidable.

In addition, the formation of Jiuli Village was originally set up by Lu Qing. Under the control of his clone, the power it can exert is probably even more terrifying than that of the old doctor.

In this way, Jiuli Village will become safer.

“Ah Qing, I leave this place to you. I’m leaving.”

After giving his final words of advice, the old doctor transformed into a streak of light, soaring into the sky.

Wei Shanhai watched the old doctor’s back, his blood boiling.

He knew the old doctor was going out this time to slay demons and monsters.

It was a dangerous path, but also one filled with lofty ambitions.

If it weren’t for his lack of strength, he would have truly wanted to follow the old doctor on his quest.

…

As the old doctor left Jiuli Village and set out on his quest

, within a blood-red palace, the eerily handsome man and two other late-stage Jindan demons surrounded a pool of blood, continuously infusing numerous incantations.

In the center of the pool stood eighteen blood-red banners, emanating an incomparably sinister aura.

The thick blood within the pool swirled, forming distorted faces.

It seemed as if countless wronged souls were threatening to burst forth.

But every struggle of these faces was suppressed, serving only to fuel further resentment.

The handsome, bewitching man cast another spell before suddenly pausing and frowning.

“What’s going on? Where did that Eagle Demon go? This Blood Soul is just one step away from fully refining this Demonic Blood Soul Banner, and now he’s nowhere to be found?” (End of Chapter)
