I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 783
Chapter 782 Situation and Murderous Intent (Seeking monthly votes at the beginning of the month)
As a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator from the Nangong family, even though he was severely injured and his cultivation had regressed, Nangong Yuanwu
still had access to information.
After his explanation, Lu Qing finally understood his current predicament.
According to Nangong Yuanwu, the Holy Alliance had now completely designated him as an enemy of the entire human race in the Tianyuan Great World.
Not only were wanted posters for him plastered all the cities, but
various sects and powerful families had also been given strict orders to closely monitor his movements.
Any discovery of his whereabouts, or any suspected individuals, was to be reported immediately.
Nangong Yuanwu even said that the demon race also considered him an enemy, and would kill him without mercy if encountered.
Hearing this, the old servant beside him was dumbfounded and trembling.
His eyes, looking at Lu Qing, were filled with immense fear.
He never imagined that the person before him was actually the legendary ruthless figure who, back in the days of the Heavenly Pivot Divine Mountain, with only a Golden Core Realm cultivation, had slain numerous human Nascent Soul cultivators and slaughtered countless Golden Core Realm experts.
No wonder he couldn’t discern the other’s cultivation level at all; after so many years, with this person’s talent and abilities, he had probably already reached the Nascent Soul Realm.
Just now, he had actually considered attacking such a ruthless person; the thought sent a chill down the old servant’s spine.
But what surprised him even more was that his master was actually acquainted with this person.
If this matter were to spread throughout the clan, it would likely cause another upheaval.
The other branches that already disliked their master would probably become even more unscrupulous.
Xiao Yan, standing to the side, also listened with her mouth slightly agape.
She knew that her brother had some enemies in the Heavenly Origin Great World.
But she hadn’t expected it to have reached the point where he was almost universally hated.
It seemed that when her brother returned to their home world from the Heavenly Origin Great World, he had indeed only reported good news and omitted many dangers.
“Fellow Daoist Lu, besides the battle at Tian Shu Divine Mountain, what did you do afterward? Why are both the Holy Alliance and the Demon Clan hunting you down?”
At this moment, Nangong Yuanwu finally couldn’t help but ask.
Logically speaking, it was understandable that Lu Qing was wanted by the Holy Alliance because of the Tian Shu Divine Mountain incident.
However, the Demon Clan’s reaction made no sense.
Therefore, Nangong Yuanwu deduced that something must have happened that they were unaware of.
Otherwise, the Holy Alliance and the Demon Clan wouldn’t have reacted so strongly.
“Senior doesn’t know the reason?” Lu Qing was somewhat surprised.
However, he quickly realized that the Holy Alliance and the Demon Clan were probably deliberately concealing information about that battle.
After all, ten Fifth Tribulation Nascent Soul cultivators from both clans joined forces to kill a Nascent Soul beginner, only to be counter-killed by a Fifth Tribulation Demon King.
Such an event was far too shameful.
If those Nascent Soul experts had any sense of shame that day, they would probably have tried their best to cover it up.
“It’s nothing much. When I was undergoing my Nascent Soul Tribulation, I was besieged by Nascent Soul Realm experts from the Demon Clan and the Holy Alliance, so I just killed them all in the process.”
Lu Qing spoke casually, but his words stirred up a storm in the hearts of Nangong Yuanwu and the old servant.
First, Lu Qing had indeed passed the Nascent Soul Tribulation and achieved the Nascent Soul Realm.
Second, he had actually killed another group of Nascent Soul Realm experts. No wonder the Holy Alliance and the Demon Clan hated him for his involvement; the reason was now clear.
“That’s understandable. I didn’t expect Fellow Daoist Lu’s cultivation to have progressed so much. He had already achieved the Nascent Soul Realm decades ago.”
Nangong Yuanwu exclaimed in amazement.
When he brought Lu Qing into the Tianyuan Great World, he had a premonition that this person was no ordinary individual and would surely achieve great things.
But he never expected that Lu Qing would cause such a stir, shaking most of the Tianyuan Great World.
Now, Lu Qing was like a cloud of mist, and his cultivation level was completely unknown.
After several decades, this person’s cultivation must have made great progress, and he has probably already made considerable progress in the Nascent Soul Realm.
He wondered how many times Lu Qing had survived the tribulations of the primordial spirit, but Nangong Yuanwu was certain that Lu Qing’s cultivation level was far above his own.
“Senior, you flatter me. Besides seeking your guidance, I also came to check on your well-being. As far as I know, the Holy Alliance seems to have arrested quite a few people I knew in the Tianyuan Great World,”
Lu Qing said tentatively.
“Arrested by the Holy Alliance?” Nangong Yuanwu paused, then nodded as if remembering something. “That’s right, I’ve heard some rumors too.
The Holy Alliance did indeed arrest some people, and I heard that the Gongshu family was behind it.”
At this point, Nangong Yuanwu gave a wry smile.
“Originally, even I should have been summoned for questioning, but because of Hong Yun, I escaped this calamity.”
“Miss Mo?”
Lu Qing raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. Did she already possess such power?
“It is indeed Hongyun. Fellow Daoist Lu, you may not know this, but when Hongyun was traveling in other worlds, she was appreciated by a senior from the Netherworld Palace and taken in as his personal disciple.
Now she holds a high position in the Netherworld Palace, and her cultivation has already reached the ninth level of the Golden Core stage.
Given time, achieving the Nascent Soul stage should not be difficult.
It is also thanks to her that my acquaintance with you was suppressed.”
Speaking of Mo Hongyun, Nangong Yuanwu’s face was filled with an uncontrollable smile.
The person he cared about most in his life was this niece.
Now that he saw her able to join the Netherworld Palace and have a powerful backer, how could he not be happy?
“I see. I didn’t expect Miss Mo to have such an opportunity. It is truly a cause for celebration.”
Lu Qing finally understood why Nangong Yuanwu was unharmed.
In the Tianyuan Great World, only a behemoth like the Netherworld Palace, which spans several immortal realms, could make forces like the Holy Alliance and the Demon Clan back down.
However, the Gongshu family…
Lu Qing recalled Nangong Yuanwu’s words just now, and a cold glint appeared in his eyes.
It turned out that the Gongshu family was secretly pulling the strings behind the scenes, so he shouldn’t blame them for being ruthless.
After the Five Treasures Taoist incident, Lu Qing had originally planned to settle old scores with the Gongshu family later.
But now, he had a new idea.
In the following time, Lu Qing asked Nangong Yuanwu about other things, such as the location of the Holy Alliance’s Heavenly Prison.
Although Nangong Yuanwu was curious, he still told him everything he knew.
“Fellow Daoist Lu, you’re asking about the location of the Holy Alliance’s Heavenly Prison, you wouldn’t happen to be thinking of…”
Nangong Yuanwu had a guess in his heart, but he didn’t dare to believe it.
Because that was too audacious, even a top-level Nascent Soul wouldn’t dare to have such thoughts.
“This junior was just asking casually. Thank you for informing me, senior. This junior has other things to do, so I won’t bother you any longer. I’ll take my leave now.”
After getting the information he wanted, Lu Qing got up and bid farewell to Nangong Yuanwu.
“Fellow Daoist Lu is leaving already?” Nangong Yuanwu was stunned.
“Indeed, I am wanted by the Holy Alliance. Staying here too long would be disadvantageous for you, Senior.”
Lu Qing took out a jade bottle from his Qiankun Qi Bag.
“Senior, here are a few pills. After refining them, they should heal your injuries. Consider it a token of my gratitude. We shall meet again someday.”
Placing the jade bottle on the table, Lu Qing waved his arm before Nangong Yuanwu could say anything more. Spatial fluctuations rippled, and he and Xiao Yan disappeared from the restaurant.
“This is… spatial teleportation?!”
Nangong Yuanwu’s eyes widened in disbelief upon seeing this, and he exclaimed in shock.
