Chapter 1001 -Two Hundred and Ninety-Five: The Dragon Among Men
“No problem!”
Ji Fu, with great generosity, took on the task, “I believe the news about the Grandmaster Blood Lion’s tie with the Corpse Bone Protector of the Blood Tower will soon spread across Beimang. By then, many wandering martial artists will come seeking to join. At that time, I will have the secret agents embedded in the Wuyi Sect bring Brother Tang to Hui Ling Mountain, how does that sound?”
With an unfathomable smile, Tang Luo nodded, “Then I’ll have to trouble Brother Ji!”
“It’s a minor matter, not worth mentioning,” Ji Fu waved his hand, “In the next few days, please rest at the Lingxiao Sect, Brother Tang. In just another two days, it will be time for the annual Lingxiao Martial Practice. I would like to take this opportunity to invite Brother Tang to observe and see how the strength of our sect’s disciples compares with that of Martial Saint Mountain and the other sects.”
“That works for me.” Tang Luo non-committally glanced at the expressionless Ji Chen and said indifferently, “Is there a free meditation chamber in the Lingxiao Sect? I’m not accustomed to staying in guest rooms.”
“No problem.” Ji Fu said joyfully, “I’ve heard that Brother Tang is a martial genius even a Grandmaster like Bu Chun has personally invited. Your eye for talent is certainly not wrong. We will be counting on you then!”
“You flatter me, Brother Ji.”
Under the arrangements of the Saint Child, Ji Fu, Tang Luo found himself a meditation chamber within the Lingxiao Sect to stay in.
Tang Luo, who had just begun to grasp the unity of Yin and Yang, needed time to verify his conjectures and experiments, so he urgently sought a safe and stable space to carry them out.
From the moment he entered the meditation chamber, he engaged in frenzied experimentation and verification. With each deduction and experiment, he slowly approached the subtle Yin within the Yang’s vigorous essence.
Meanwhile, Ji Fu, having arranged the meditation chamber, immediately sent Ji Chen to contact the Ji Clan’s secret agent within the Wuyi Sect to arrange Tang Luo’s entrance to the mountain. However, no matter how many messages they sent to Hui Ling Mountain, they received no reply from Ji Yongchen.
It wasn’t until the Wind Media stationed at Mount Taicang returned their message that Ji Chen realized something was amiss and rushed back to Lingxiao Sect to report to Ji Fu.
“Our undercover agent, Ji Yongchen, while with the Wuyi Sect’s General Yunhui, Fan Yong, at the second campsite, unexpectedly encountered the Devil Lord Gou Chen in person. Fan Yong died, and the entire Serpent Fang campsite suffered heavy casualties. When the incident occurred, undercover agent Ji Yongchen escaped using his levitation technique and placed a secret letter in a concealed formation west of Serpent Fang Mountain. But when the Wind Media arrived at the formation, not only was the formation core tampered with, but the secret letter had vanished without a trace. Even Ji Yongchen’s whereabouts are unknown. From the current situation, it’s very likely he’s fallen victim to foul play!”
The door to the meditation chamber slowly opened, and a pale Ji Fu stepped out and asked in a heavy voice, “Are there any leads?”
“Judging by the traces left at the scene, the person who sabotaged the formation has a high level of cultivation, and is proficient in a kind of Evil Qi that can corrode Spiritual Power. According to the spies from the Wind Media Department, the chances of Wuyi Sect discovering Ji Yongchen’s identity and making a move against him can be temporarily ruled out because, from the intelligence we have, none of the generals on Hui Ling Mountain, including the Grandmaster Blood Lion, possesses such profound Evil Qi,” related Ji Chen without missing a single detail from the message he received from the Wind Media Department. It only served to deepen Ji Fu’s frown, “Is there a way to continue the investigation?”

“The Wind Media Department has already issued orders. All spies in the region of Mount Taicang have been mobilized, and we can expect new information within two days,” Ji Chen replied. “Based on the intelligence known so far, the main suspect is Devil Lord Gou Chen. Even if he wasn’t directly involved, Ji Yongchen’s disappearance is likely related to him!”
“Are you saying that Gou Chen noticed someone slipping away during his attack on Serpent Fang Mountain, and after killing Fan Yong, he took control of Ji Yongchen and intercepted the secret message?”
“In the absence of new leads, this is the most likely scenario for Ji Yongchen’s disappearance!”
Ji Chen said with difficulty, “It’s just, Gou Chen has a mysterious background. After his fame from the battle in the Wilderness, our family even considered recruiting him, but no matter how the Wind Media investigated, this man seemed to have vanished into thin air. Moreover, there are those across the states who cause confusion by falsely claiming to be Devil Lord Gou Chen, making it so that even the Dutian Heavenly King cannot trace his origins. This is indeed troublesome.”
“Even if it’s difficult, we must do it,” Ji Fu said coldly. “Let Wind Media continue the search. Since Hook Chen has already appeared within Beimang’s territory, we must find him even if we have to excavate three feet into the ground. As for Ji Yongchen, we must see the person if he’s alive, and the body if he’s dead! Whoever has stolen the intelligence must spit it out, principal and interest! Moreover, we went to great lengths to send Gu Han out of Beimang, just so An Yuanxi’s Wind Department could leave as soon as possible. But now, he’s returning and even brought Bone Taoist with him—what does he mean by this?!”

A certain deep ravine in Mang Mountain
Bone Taoist Feng You and Corpse Monk Gu Han were in the midst of recuperating and regulating their breath.
They had thought a joint effort between the two of them would easily capture the Blood Lion Grandmaster, but they did not expect such a profound array of defenses on Hui Ling Mountain, which not only foiled their plans but also resulted in Dutian Heavenly King’s warriors targeting them once again.
As inspectors of the Wind, Yin, Lin, Fire, Zhen, and Mountain six departments under Dutian Heavenly King’s command, the warriors led by An Yuanxi were known for their speed. Once bitten, it would be difficult to shake them off, and after several engagements, the two had only just managed to break through, albeit with some injuries.
And what made them even more anxious was the Blood Lion Grandmaster of Hui Ling Mountain.
Feng You and Gu Han had started to doubt the intelligence they obtained from Ji Yongchen because based on their encounter, that person showed no signs of the habits typical of a wandering martial artist.
Whether it was the strength of his techniques or his skill with Spiritual Power, from the outside to the inside, he was impeccable, a solid foundation that could only have been built with guidance from a great master.
“This Blood Lion Grandmaster, his background must be extraordinary,”
Feng You said after finishing his breathing exercises, turning to Gu Han. “Such exquisite mastery of array formation and control of Spiritual Power is beyond the reach of an average sect’s journeyman. With his talents, any sect would treat him as an honored guest, so why would he choose to gather a ragtag group and play king of the mountain?”
“There are always some who are born unwilling to be subordinate to others,” Gu Han said with eyes still closed, his voice calm. “Having crossed hands with him, what do you think of this person, Daoist Priest?”
“He has a majestic presence that commands respect, and his imperial aura is completely apparent,” Feng You praised without stinginess. “I have not seen such a dragon among men for a long time.”
Nodding in agreement with Feng You’s view and about to speak, Gu Han suddenly changed his expression and said solemnly, “An Yuanxi’s men are on our tail again; time to go!”
The two turned into yellow beams of light, burrowing into the ground, and vanished in an instant. After a while, a massive array descended from the sky, illuminating the entire ravine.
It was indeed An Yuanxi leading the king’s warriors, but by this time, not a trace of the two could be found.
…
Lingxiao Sect, Pan Yun Terrace
The annual Lingxiao martial display had arrived as scheduled, and this time, in addition to several Lingxiao Sect Grandmasters and the Divine Child Ji Fu, there was a new face never seen before—the First Divine Child of Ten Thousand Clans, Longxi’s Pride, Tang Luo.
