Chapter 73: Fenghou Qimen

~11 min read 2,024 words

According to Number Three, the offline meeting will be held on a cruise ship in the Pacific Ocean twelve hours from now.

At that time, everyone, including Number One, will appear; no one is allowed to carry weapons or bodyguards, and security measures will be fully managed by Number Two, who does not participate in the voting.

Upon learning this news, Lin Yu and the others gained twelve hours of free time.

Su Su Haoming, Fan Xian, and Yun Ye were extremely interested in the modern technology of this world, so under He He Jingfeng's hospitality, they began frantically shopping for things here.

As for Lin Yu, he took this opportunity to return to the East, preparing to collect the other Eight Wonders.

Among them, Shenji Bailian and Shuangquan Shou held no interest for Lin Yu.

Unless Liuuxian Zhai was related to immortality, it might not have even caught his attention.

Of the remaining Eight Wonders, Qiti Yuanliu is currently suspected to be mastered only by Zhang Zhang Chulan; Juling Qianjiang relies on external objects and its realm is too low; Daluo Dongguan is the most mysterious, and Lin Yu still does not know how to obtain it.

So after thinking it over, only Fenghou Qimen and Tongtian Lu were worth obtaining.

Thus, half an hour later, Lin Yu appeared in a certain city in the North China region.

Gazing at the large comprehensive hospital before him and the crowded people at the hospital entrance, Lin Yu curled the corner of his mouth and waited quietly.

Before long, a young man wearing a white shirt and black jacket walked out of the hospital.

He had a tall and well-proportioned figure, and his looks could be called handsome, but faint dark circles under his eyes and his hair casually tied at the back of his head made his temperament seem somewhat lazy and despondent.

After walking out of the hospital, the young man scratched the back of his head and muttered, "Where exactly is the problem..."

Lin Yu watched the young man quietly, sensing the Qi on his body, and thought to himself, This must be Wang Ye!

Wang Ye of Wudang, the successor of the Eight Wonders "Fenghou Qimen," was expelled from Wudang after displaying his supreme skill at the Luotian Da Jiao, and is now considered a rogue without a sect.

After experiencing the Bi You Cun Pian, Wang Ye's body would often develop strange illnesses.

These illnesses came suddenly and left just as suddenly, leaving people baffled; Wang Ye had never figured out the root cause of his illness, so he would come to the hospital for checkups from time to time.

Lin Yu tracked down his whereabouts based on this clue, which is how he managed to corner him here.

Just then, Wang Ye suddenly stopped, frowned slightly, and looked at Lin Yu staring at him from the crowd.

Sensing Lin Yu's unhidden gaze, Wang Ye's lips twitched, and the veins on his forehead stood out.

He stood in place, endured it again and again, and finally could not hold back; he rolled up his sleeves and strode angrily toward the youth.

"Is it ever going to end? Tell me, is it ever going to end?!"

"Day after day, wherever I go, you people are there; do you want to let anyone have some peace?!"

The sudden angry shout attracted the attention of the surrounding crowd.

Lin Yu blinked, surprised, and said, "Little Daoist, did you misunderstand something? I was just passing through here; how have I been staring at you all this time?"

"You... you still deny it?!"

Wang Ye's eyes widened, and he said incredulously, "I called you Daoist, and you still deny it!"

Saying this, he rolled up his sleeves and said in a low voice with anger in his tone, "You must be from the Shu Zi Men. Judging by our ages, we are of the same generation, so don't say I'm bullying the young. Come on, let's have a go!"

Have a go with me?

Lin Yu looked surprised; this was the first time he had heard such a request.

However, his purpose here was not to compete with this junior, Wang Ye.

So he shook his head and said softly, "You are wronging me; I am not one of Chen Chen Jinkui's people..."

Saying this, he raised his hand and pointed to another person in the crowd, saying, "He is!"

"..."

Wang Ye's expression froze, then he slowly turned his head to look at another person in the crowd.

That person locked eyes with Wang Ye, immediately averted his gaze, and seemed somewhat guilty as he scratched his head.

It really is him!

Wang Ye's face darkened, then he turned back, plastering a smile on his face and saying, "Sorry, misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding. Look at my eyesight; I could be this close and still mistake the person..."

While speaking, Wang Ye rubbed his hands and backed away.

When he reached the other person's side, he suddenly turned around and said through gritted teeth:

"Speak, what exactly do you people want?!"

That person, sweating profusely, hurriedly explained, "Master Wang, please don't get excited. We are also helpless; you have refused Master Kui's invitation several times. Master Kui instructed me to keep an eye on you, so I can only follow orders!"

"The Sect Master of Shu Zi Men, one of the Ten Elders, Chen Chen Jinkui, right?"

Wang Ye said indifferently, "Fine, I'm annoyed too. I'll name a place; have him come, and he must come alone!"

The Shu Zi Men member who had been tailing him was stunned upon hearing this, then leaned his ear over. After memorizing the location Wang Ye mentioned, he bowed apologetically and left with the message.

Wang Ye sighed, turned around, and glanced at Lin Yu, saying:

"Big Brother, since you know Master Kui's name, you must be someone from the circle, right?"

Lin Yu smiled and said, "More or less."

Wang Ye nodded and said, "Fine, wait until I deal with Master Kui, then I'll deal with you!"

Lin Yu shook his head and said, "That won't do!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Ye was stunned and said, surprised, "Someone from the circle, and you won't even give the Ten Elders face?"

Lin Yu smiled and said, "Even the Heavenly Master won't work!"

"Whoa, such big talk!" Wang Ye clicked his tongue and said, "You really haven't met the Heavenly Master!"

Lin Yu smiled and continued, unconcerned, "Daoist Wang Ye, the reason you came to the hospital today is because your body has a problem, right?"

Wang Ye's smile gradually faded: "You found that out too? Your influence is considerable!"

Lin Yu smiled and said, "Don't you want to know why the problem occurred?"

Wang Ye raised an eyebrow and said, "Something I don't know, how could you know?"

Lin Yu did not answer directly, but said leisurely, "Innate leads the Zhou Tian, encompassing the changes of the Zhou Tian, transforming myself into the King..."

Upon hearing this, Wang Ye was stunned, then said in a deep voice, "Where did you hear this phrase?"

"Want to know?" Lin Yu smiled slightly. "Then come with me!"

Having spoken, he turned around, hands in his pockets, and walked toward the street behind him.

Wang Ye's face shifted for a moment; finally, he gritted his teeth and followed.

Not long after, the two arrived in a mountain forest outside the suburbs.

Lin Yu stopped, turned around, and glanced casually at the surroundings.

Wang Ye stopped as well, looking at him with a calm expression and said, "Can you speak now?"

"No rush." Lin Yu continued scanning the area, then suddenly spoke, "Do you know why I had to come so far? I was afraid you weren't by Daoist Wang's side at the time..."

Wang Ye froze, surprised, and asked, "What are you talking about?"

Lin Yu paid no attention to Wang Ye's reaction and continued on his own, "I must say, your Wind Emperor Qimen is indeed formidable. If I hadn't shown my true skills, I wouldn't have been able to track your whereabouts."

"But then again, if I truly showed my full power, this world probably couldn't withstand it."

"So, I can only trouble you, this junior disciple's junior, for now..."

As he spoke, he raised three fingers and said indifferently, "Zhou Sheng, I'll count to three. If you don't show yourself, I'll kill this junior."

... What?!

Wang Ye's pupils shrank sharply, staring at Lin Yu in shock.

Zhou Sheng?!

That Ancestor Zhou who created the "Wind Emperor Qimen" back then?!

He's still alive?!

Wang Ye's heart was swept up in a storm of shock.

But shock was a luxury; Lin Yu had already started counting down, his raised three fingers dropping one by one with the countdown.

"One!"

No good, I must strike first!

Wang Ye suddenly snapped back to his senses, gritted his teeth, and, before Lin Yu could count to three, stomped hard on the ground.

In an instant, blue Qi light spread along the ground, bringing the mountain forest within a hundred meters into the Qimen formation.

Wang Ye held his fingers together like a sword, placed them before him, and shouted loudly in his heart:

"Uncle Qian character—Luan Jin Tuo!"

Invisible ripples instantly enveloped Lin Yu's entire body.

Lin Yu glanced at him indifferently and, without pausing, bent his second finger.

"Two!"

Another person who can't be suppressed?!

Wang Ye was nearly numb. As a time technique within the Wind Emperor Qimen that controls the speed of change in things, Luan Jin Tuo was definitely a divine skill, but since he debuted, it seemed this thing had never worked!

First, the Heavenly Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, then Feng Baobao and that mysterious person in disguise, and now an even more absurd one...

A full four people!

How long had it been since Wang Ye debuted, yet he had already encountered four experts unaffected by Luan Jin Tuo?

Are top experts being sold in bulk these days?

Wang Ye ranted wildly in his heart, gritting his teeth and saying, "Forget it, just take him down first!"

Kun character—Earth River Cart!

"Boom!"

In an instant, the earth emitted a rumbling roar; countless clods of earth and sand surged like flowing water, raising a massive earth wave that crashed down toward Lin Yu ahead.

Just before the Earth River Cart crashed down, Lin Yu had bent his third finger and calmly spoke the final word.

"Three!"

"Boom!"

In the next instant, the dragon-like earth wave exploded violently, shattering into countless fragments that scattered in all directions.

Wang Ye felt a flash before his eyes, and Lin Yu's calm face appeared in his view.

Just as Lin Yu reached out toward Wang Ye's neck, a black mist suddenly shot out from the nearby forest, instantly covering Wang Ye's entire body, wrapping him up and rushing toward the sky, fleeing toward the distance without looking back.

"Finally showed yourself!"

A smile appeared on Lin Yu's face; he immediately raised his hand and beckoned. The space above instantly compressed, trapping Wang Ye and the black mist within a square, invisible cage.

The black mist rushed left and right, realized it truly couldn't break free from the restraint, and could only choose to give up struggling.

Thus, before Wang Ye's shocked and bewildered gaze, the black mist actually transformed into a white-haired old Taoist with a hunched figure!

Lin Yu's feet slowly lifted off the ground; he simply flew into the air, arrived before the old Taoist, and locked eyes with him through the spatial barrier.

"Wudang's Zhou Sheng..."

Lin Yu looked at him with interest and said, "I've long heard your name!"

Zhou Sheng lowered his head, looked strangely at the air beneath Lin Yu's feet, remained silent for a long time, and then slowly spoke:

"Even an old Taoist like me can't understand it now... What kind of monster are you?!"

Eight chapters finished. I don't type fast; previously I'd release five chapters upon going on sale, but this time I've broken my limit...
