Chapter 136: Identity Exposed, the Whole City Shocked
In the early morning, the sun rises.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful!”
Xiaoyan, who was sitting on the ox cart, uttered an exclamation.
At this moment, Lu Qing and others have left the forest and are now in a plain.
There are vast fields around it, with many farmhouses located in them.
Lu Qing and his crew's ox cart were traveling on a wide official road in the middle of the field.
It was the golden autumn, and the fields were golden, which was so beautiful. No wonder Xiaoyan was amazed.
Compared with the small-scale rice fields in the east and west of their Jiuli Village.
The feeling of these vast rice fields connected together is truly shocking.
"Brother Lu Qing, go a little further and you will reach the county town."
Ma Gu pointed at the tall city wall in the distance and said to Lu Qing.
Looking at the city in the distance, Lu Qing was a little surprised.
He originally thought that the county town would not be very big, but he was wrong.
Just looking at the height of the city wall, this county town is probably much larger than those so-called ancient cities he had seen in his previous life.
No wonder Master once said that the city is another world.
Just what you see.
Compared with Jiuli Village, the county town is indeed much more prosperous.
"Master, we are almost at the county town. Wait a minute, how are we going to get into the town?"
Yesterday afternoon, Lu Qing and his team set out from Jiuli Village. The ox cart moved slowly, and the distance of more than a hundred miles was not very short.
When we were halfway through the journey, it was already dark.
The road is difficult to walk on at night, and the county town’s gates are closed at night.
So after nightfall, Lu Qing and his friends simply found a broken kiln in the wild, camped out for the night, and waited until the sky turned pale before continuing their journey.
"Just go in like this. As long as we can get into the city, everything will be safe." said the old doctor.
Lu Qing nodded.
The master is a martial artist at the Xiantian realm. As long as he can enter the city, even if Wang Cang notices it, he will be unable to do anything to them.
Unless he wants to disregard everything and start a battle in the innate realm in the city.
So Lu Qing and his men concealed their auras, hid their swords and knives on the ox carts, and tried their best to pretend to be farmers going to the city to attend the market.
Mrs. Wei and Wei Zian's fair faces were covered with dust, hiding their skin color, making them look like an ordinary peasant woman and farm boy.
The old doctor also wore a bamboo hat on his head to cover his face.
Following other people who were also going into the city for the early morning market, the ox cart slowly moved forward.
As they got closer to the county town, everyone's heart gradually became tense.
Mrs. Wei, in particular, had her heart pounding.
She hugged Xiaoyan tightly, trying hard to calm herself down and not reveal any flaws.
Lu Qing looked at the neatly stacked city walls that were dozens of meters high in front of him, and he understood why Magu and the others did not suggest sneaking into the city at night.
This tall and slippery city wall is so difficult to climb even for a warrior at the Muscle and Bones Realm without alerting others.
What's more, they brought Mrs. Wei and her son with them.
The city wall was getting closer and closer, and the ox cart crossed the fields and came to the large blank buffer zone outside the city.
However, when the ox cart was still more than a hundred meters away from the city gate, the old doctor stopped the ox cart.
At the same time, there was a slight movement coming from Lu Qing's backpack.
"Master?" Lu Qing was surprised.
"Alas, it can't be concealed after all." The old doctor sighed.
Magu and his companions were greatly surprised. Just as they were about to ask for details, they heard a long laugh coming from the front.
A figure suddenly appeared on the city wall above the city gate.
At the same time, a large number of troops came out of the city, drove away the crowd and blocked the city gate.
The crowd in front who were trying to enter the city suddenly screamed and scattered. Those who ran slower were beaten black and blue, with their belongings scattered all over the ground.
Fortunately, those people still took into consideration that this was a county town and did not dare to go too far, so no one was killed in the end.
As Lu Qing watched this scene, a hint of coldness gradually appeared in his eyes.
"This is too much. Where are the people in the county? Are they just going to let these people do what they want?"
Even Ma Gu, who was standing by, couldn't stand it and said indignantly.
As for Mrs. Wei and her son, they were even more sad and angry.
These people are so arrogant that they dare not imagine how the people in the mansion have been bullied these days.
Soon, the crowd who wanted to enter the city was dispersed, leaving only Lu Qing's ox cart alone.
"Which Xiantian Realm fellow is so polite and has helped me so much by personally sending Wei Xinghe's wife and children here? I am truly grateful."
The figure on the city gate said loudly.
When these words were spoken, the whole city was shocked.
Originally, the Tiancang Sect's high-profile move to block the city gate was enough to attract the attention of all forces in the city. I wonder what this evil dragon crossing the river is going to do next.
Now after hearing what Wang Cangyi said, it turned out that the mistress of the Wei family and the young master Wei had returned?
And it seems that there is another powerful innate realm master involved in this?
All of a sudden, all the forces in the city became agitated and sent their masters to rush to the city gate.
"Another Xiantian realm master?"
County Mansion.
The county magistrate who was playing chess was stunned when he heard Wang Cangyi's voice.
Since when did his remote little town become so popular? How come the innate realm masters, who were hard to find before, appeared one after another?
"Come on, let's go out and take a look."
The young man in plain clothes who was sitting opposite stood up and said calmly.
"Zhirui, do you know something?"
The county lord saw his friend's expression and asked quickly.
He remembered that this guy seemed to have disappeared for a while yesterday.
However, the young man in plain clothes ignored his question and walked straight out.
"Hey, Zhirui, wait for me!"
The county magistrate hurriedly chased after him.
It was a rare opportunity to see something exciting, and Zhirui didn't stop him, so he couldn't miss it.
Wei Mansion, a quiet courtyard.
"Ningyan and An'er are back?"
When Wei Xinghe heard the news that spread throughout the city, he was overjoyed at first, but then his face changed drastically.
"Another Xiantian Realm master, who is he? Ningyan and An'er fell into his hands?"
"Master, what should we do? The ancestor hasn't come out yet! Should we go and inform him?"
Chief Steward Wei said anxiously.
"No need, I've heard it." Wei Shanhai appeared in the yard.
"Grandfather!" Wei Xinghe and the others were delighted, "Are you feeling better?"
"No." Wei Shanhai shook his head and gave a disappointing answer to the two. "I have been meditating for several days, but still have no results."
However, Wei Xinghe quickly perked up: "Ancestor, Wang Cangyi said that Ningyan and An'er are back and in the hands of another Xiantian realm master, right?"
"Their Qi and blood are too weak and the distance is too far, so I can't be sure, but outside the city, there is indeed the aura of another strange Xiantian realm."
Wei Shanhai looked solemn.
He also couldn't have imagined that a third person in the Innate Realm would appear in the small Cang County.
Is the visitor an enemy or a friend? Is he just passing by, or is he a powerful reinforcement invited by Wang Cangyi?
For a moment, even with Wei Shanhai's great concentration, he felt a little uneasy.
But he knew that no matter what, he had to go out and figure it all out.
All the major forces in the city were in an uproar because of Wang Cangyi's words.
Outside the city, Lu Qing was looking up at the figure on the city gate.
At this moment, in his field of vision, the figure on the city gate was emitting a faint golden light of supernatural power.
[Wang Cangyi: The second elder of the inner sect of Tiancang Sect in Northern Frontier. He is hypocritical and suspicious, good at disguise, and very protective of his shortcomings.]
[Cultivation: Peak of the initial stage of the Xiantian realm, gold-attributed true qi. ]
[He possesses many innate secret techniques, especially swordsmanship. 】
[When he was young, he traveled with Wei Shanhai and they were close friends. Later, due to their different personalities and the unequal distribution of treasures, they became enemies.]
Seeing the information displayed in his field of vision, Lu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Wang Cangyi’s cultivation is only at the peak of the innate initial realm, not much stronger than his master.
They are not in an absolute disadvantage yet.
However, what surprised him was that Wang Cangyi and the ancestor of the Wei family were actually good friends when they were young?
This would explain why the Tiancang Sect, far away in the northern border, knew that the Wei family in this remote town possessed treasures and would travel thousands of miles to seize them.
"Master, how did he find us?" Lu Qing asked.
"We are just unlucky. The Xiantian Realm master in front of us seemed to have been staying near the city gate since early morning. As soon as we approached, he sensed the Xiantian aura in me."
The old doctor said with a sad face.
"I'm afraid it's not that we are unlucky, but that the other party has never left the vicinity of the city gate and has been guarding the old ancestor of the Wei family." Lu Qing sneered.
From the information obtained by the supernatural power, we can know that Wang Cangyi is a typical hypocritical villain.
This kind of people will never give up until they achieve their goals.
Lu Qing estimated that since the failure of the attack on the Wei family, Wang Cangyi might have been guarding here all the time. Anyone from the Wei family who came in or out could not escape his detection.
"Master, are you sure you can defeat Wang Cangyi?" Lu Qing asked in a low voice.
"I'm afraid not." The old doctor shook his head. "This Xiantian realm master has a strong aura, and I'm not good at fighting. If we really fight, I will definitely not be his opponent."
"Is it not possible to add the skills left by Senior Li?"
"It's difficult. I, your master, have dull aptitude. I have only practiced two of Senior Li's techniques. I have only comprehended 30% to 40% of the mysteries of each technique. How can I compare with these true masters of the innate realm?" The old doctor said honestly.
"Is that so? It seems we can only delay as much as possible until the old ancestor of the Wei family comes out."
Lu Qing felt a little embarrassed.
However, he believed that Wang Cangyi would not act rashly.
After all, he didn't know that his master was not good at fighting.
With the ancestor of the Wei family watching closely from behind, the other party would not easily make enemies with a person in the Innate Realm again.
Ma Gu and others, who were standing by, were already stunned after listening to the conversation between the master and the disciple.
"Old, old doctor, are you a master of the Xiantian realm?"
Magu asked, stuttering.
"He just broke through to the innate realm by luck. He can't be called a master." The old doctor shook his head.
Magu's mouth suddenly opened wide.
He could never have imagined that the old doctor who was usually kind and friendly to everyone would actually be a powerful person in the innate realm.
Although he knew before that the old doctor was a warrior at the Internal Viscera Realm, he never expected that he would quietly step into the Innate Realm.
Mrs. Wei and her son were also in disbelief that the old man who was driving the carriage for them could be the legendary innate realm expert?
Just when Magu and the others were shocked, Wang Cangyi on the opposite side was a little unhappy.
He didn't expect that after he took the initiative to show goodwill, the other party didn't even say a word in response, which simply showed that he was not taking him seriously.
However, thinking of Wei Shanhai in the city, he suppressed his anger.
"Sir, I wonder what you think of Wang's previous proposal. As long as you hand over the Wei mother and son to me, my Tiancang Sect will reward you handsomely."
This was the first time that Wang Cangyi publicly revealed the origins of his sect.
Obviously, facing the mysterious old doctor in the innate realm, he was still wary before he figured out his origins, and wanted to use the power of the sect to force the other party to submit.
Unfortunately, the old doctor had no idea what sect the Tiancang Sect was.
He shook his head: "Forgive me, old man, for not being able to obey your order. Your Majesty has murderous intentions. If these two children fall into your hands, I'm afraid they will not have a good end."
"So, you are determined to help the Wei family?"
Wang Cangyi's eyes turned cold, and his aura gradually rose.
It has been confirmed that the old doctor and his companions are the Wei family's helpers.
He thought of the deaths of his three direct disciples, and the coldness in his eyes became even more intense.
His tone was no longer polite: "Old man, let me ask you, were those disciples of mine murdered by you?"
Feeling the rising momentum of Wang Cang, Lu Qing was shocked, stood up and shouted:
"Does Your Excellency intend to disobey the Holy Mountain's prohibition and attack us?"
"presumptuous!"
When Wang Cang saw that a small muscle and bone realm cultivator dared to shout at him, a fierce look flashed in his eyes, and his powerful aura immediately crushed towards Lu Qing.
Including several people on the ox cart, they were all swept away.
The power of the Xiantian Realm is extraordinary. Even if they were not the main target, just being swept by the edge of the momentum made Madam Wei and the others look uncomfortable and almost fainted.
Fortunately, the next moment, the old doctor waved his hand, and a gentle aura emanated from him, enveloping several people and blocking Wang Cangyi's momentum.
Even so, Mrs. Wei and the others continued to cough loudly.
Even Ma Gu, who had only achieved a small level of strength, was no exception. His face turned red and his eyes were filled with horror.
This was the first time he felt the power of the Innate Realm. He did not expect it to be so terrifying.
"Aunt, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
Xiaoyan, who was held in Mrs. Wei's arms, looked at her worriedly, and reached out to pat her back to help her calm down.
"Auntie is fine..." Madam Wei shook her head, but she soon felt something was wrong, "Xiaoyan, aren't you feeling uncomfortable?"
Xiaoyan's face was filled with concern, and she didn't look uncomfortable at all.
"It's not uncomfortable, but the uncle across the street is so fierce. Xiaoyan doesn't like him."
Xiaoyan shook her head, frowned, and looked disgusted.
Mrs. Wei looked at her in a daze.
"Um?"
Wang Cang was shocked when he saw that his innate momentum was so easily resolved by the old doctor.
What surprised him even more was that Lu Qing, who was standing at the front and had completely endured the impact of his momentum, was standing there with clear eyes and a calm expression.
It was as if his aura was just a breeze on his face, without any effect on him at all.
"How is that possible!"
All the warriors who saw this scene were shocked.
