Chapter 92 Wrath of Kun - 1 The place that Lu Qing had plundered was like...

The places Lu Qing had plundered were like a storm, a tornado digging three feet into the ground, leaving virtually nothing of value. Wu Chen could only carefully examine the places she hadn't yet reached.

Although the underground palace wasn't large, it was extremely luxurious, with all the burial goods made of gold and jade, priceless. The black-haired man's words, though resentful, still held a lingering affection for that man; the story behind it all likely requires further investigation. However, whether anyone besides the black-haired man remembers the events of so many years ago is unknown.

Wu Chen looked around and finally found the array's core in the underground palace. When he came out of the stone chamber where the array's core was located, he saw that Lu Qing had even packed all the jade and artificial flowers in the underground palace into a bag. Looking at the empty branches, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. Fortunately, the spirit bag had no weight, otherwise the things she was carrying would probably be as heavy as a small mountain.

Wu Chen couldn't help but drift off-topic: judging from Lu Qing's plundering efforts in the Western Wilderness, her wealth was probably now comparable to his own. And this was less than a year ago...

Yu Jitang and Qi Ying followed behind her with beaming smiles, their excitement evident, clearly enjoying the division of the spoils.

Is this still the same sharp-tongued, arrogant, and disdainful Yu Shenshi? Wu Chen shook his head so hard he could hardly stop.

Lu Qing waved to him happily, "It's all done, you can go now!"

Wu Chen waved to them, "This way."

The key to the formation is a mural in the stone chamber, depicting a man and a woman in an inner room. The man is combing the woman's hair, but his right hand is loosely clenched, as if something is missing.

Lu Qing said "Oh," and replied, "I know. I just saw a comb made of black jade, but neither of them wanted it, so it's with me."

Yu Jitang looked up at the ceiling, while Qi Ying looked down at the ground, as if they hadn't heard anything.

Lu Qing took out the black jade comb and was about to put it into the right side of the mural.

Wu Chen said, "Wait, let her take a look."

Lu Qing opened the spirit pouch and then stuffed the black jade comb into the right-hand position of the mural.

The mural shimmered with light, and the two figures seemed to come alive, exchanging a smile. After the light faded, the entire mural vanished, revealing the entrance to a passageway. The black jade comb fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

The sound of weeping came from the spirit pouch, mournful and incessant.

Without a word, Lu Qing simply picked up the black jade comb, tossed it into her spirit pouch, and sealed it. Without further ado, she promptly packed her bags and set off.

Yu Jitang, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but think that if Wu Chen dared to find another woman with ulterior motives, Lu Qing would probably not be as entangled as Hei Fa, but would turn around and leave, going about her business as usual.

Wu Chen smiled, took Lu Qing's hand, and walked into the passage.

The stone-paved passage was mostly intact, but the exit was located in the middle of a cliff, and would likely have been difficult to find without a stroke of luck. Wu Chen cut off a section of the cliff, completely burying the entrance.

It was still the middle of the night. They decided to fly on their swords towards the Divine Palace. From then on, they rested during the day and traveled at night. Those who were still searching for them on the western border had been searching for nearly a month, suffering heavy losses and countless casualties. When they received news that Wu Chen and his group had approached the territory of the Divine Palace, they were so angry that they wanted to vomit blood, but there was nothing they could do but devise another plan.

...

"This is the Divine Palace?" Lu Qing stood at the mountain gate, looking up at the magnificent and spectacular continuous mountain peaks. "It is indeed quite impressive."

The disciples guarding the mountain couldn't help but glance at her. Who was this little girl? What a boastful tone!

Yu Jitang pointed it out to her, "Do you see that mountain peak that looks like a peach? That's my family's Xuan Shou Peak. I'll take you there to play tomorrow."

Disciple guarding the mountain: Oh, so you're a friend of the Divine Attendant Yu.

Lu Qing nodded. "Okay."

Qi Ying interjected, "Don't listen to him. If we're talking about fun, our Nukun Peak is much more fun. There are fewer people on our mountain, and more fun places to visit. His mountain is full of people, trees, and houses; there's nowhere to even set foot on it."

Lu Qing: "Oh, oh, oh."

Disciple guarding the mountain: Hmm? Could it be Qi Ying's friend?

Yu Jitang retorted, "Who said that? Everyone on Nukun Peak is controlled by your wife, and all they do is cultivate and argue. It's nowhere near as fun as my home."

Disciple guarding the mountain: Her husband? Who?

Wu Chen reached out his hand to her, "I have a lot of things to deal with urgently. I'll have Qi Ying accompany you for a stroll around Nukun Peak first. Once I'm done with my work, I'll take you to formally visit Elder Yu."

Lu Qing held his hand and nodded obediently.

The mountain-guarding disciple stared in horror at the two men's clasped hands: What had they seen? What had happened during the winter hunt? Could this man be a fake priestess? ...

The disciple guarding the mountain was so surprised that he even forgot to bow and announce his arrival. Fortunately, it was his lapse in composure that allowed Wu Chen to quietly lead Lu Qing to the fork in the road at Nukun Peak. The four of them split into two groups: Wu Chen and Yu Jitang went to Xuan Shou Peak to see Elder Yu, while Qi Ying accompanied Lu Qing to Nukun Peak.

Let's start with Lu Qing and Qi Ying's group.

Over the past few days, Qi Ying has come to understand Lu Qing's position in Wu Chen's heart. He is Wu Chen's eldest disciple and personal attendant, and even Qi Zhi may not understand Wu Chen better than him.

In his mind, Wu Chen was an extremely patient and reserved person, but the ease and joy Wu Chen displayed when facing Lu Qing was something Qi Ying had never seen before. Therefore, he dared not underestimate Lu Qing just because she seemed naive and innocent. Moreover, from the Western Wilderness to the Divine Palace, the strength Lu Qing had displayed meant that easily defeating him was absolutely no problem.

"This is Nukun Peak. Among the peaks of the Divine Palace, its terrain is precipitous and not suitable for many people to live in. Before you became a divine servant, few people came here. Later, you liked the quiet and sparsely populated place, so you settled here. We on Nukun Peak don't have many people; apart from disciples and followers, we basically have no free time..." Before he could finish the word "people," Qi Ying was dumbfounded. Why were these beautiful women here again?
