Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 1412: Chapter 895: An Unexpected Enemy (Part 2)

The God Concealing Shield on the first floor of the Seven Treasures Soul Suppressing Tower can gather the fluctuations of the Spiritual Sense. If one uses Spiritual Sense for large-scale searches, the God Concealing Shield cannot gather all fluctuations, but if one is only focusing on a single person, or conducting a small range search, then the God Concealing Shield can hide Yang Zhenshan’s Spiritual Sense.

Yang Zhenshan followed behind the Qi Refinement Realm Cultivator and soon arrived at a tavern.

"Drunken Cloud Tower!"

Yang Zhenshan looked up at the plaque, then entered the Drunken Cloud Tower.

"Welcome, sir! Would you like an elegant room upstairs or the main hall?" A serving boy immediately came up to ask.

Yang Zhenshan glanced at the Cultivator heading upstairs and said blandly, "An elegant room upstairs!"

"How many guests, sir!"

"Just myself!"

The attendant led Yang Zhenshan to an elegant room upstairs, where Yang Zhenshan casually ordered a pot of Spiritual Wine and two plates of appetizers, then sent the attendant away.

His elegant room was a bit far from the Cultivator’s room, separated by seven or eight rooms, but this did not affect his investigation of the situation inside the opponent’s room.

Spiritual Sense subtly spread over, enveloping the other’s room, and soon everything inside the elegant room appeared in Yang Zhenshan’s mind.

Inside the elegant room were three people, besides the Qi Refinement Realm Cultivator following him earlier, there were also two Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

One with a sinister look and slightly slim body, the other burly and rough-looking.

Looking at their figures, Yang Zhenshan felt a hint of familiarity arising in his heart.

He scanned outside the window of the elegant room and roughly understood that these people might be following him impulsively, as he walked through this street earlier on his way to the Ten Thousand Treasures Store, and here one could see everything on the street.

The other party probably followed him after seeing him.

This indicates that they recognize him, and it is precisely because they know him that they have someone following him.

...

"Reporting to sir, that person is residing at the Spring and Summer Square, Ding Sixty-eight Cave Mansion. I already found out, that person is temporarily rented, should not have been in the Immortal City for long!"

The Qi Refinement Realm Cultivator stood respectfully in front of the two Foundation Establishment Cultivators and reported.

The sinister-looking man heard this, a fierce glint flashing in his eyes, "Very well, you may step down now!"

The Qi Refinement Realm Cultivator bowed and retreated from the elegant room, the burly man immediately couldn’t hold back his angry voice saying, "Brother, it’s him, he killed my little sister, I definitely did not mistake him!"

"I believe you, but this is the White Cloud Immortal City! We cannot act within the city!" The sinister-looking man said.

"Brother, the grievance of the little sister cannot go unanswered!" The burly man said, anxious and angry.

The sinister-looking man slowly stood up, looked out at the street through the window, and said, "Of course, the grievance of the little sister must be answered, but we cannot rush into this. Do not forget, when the three of us siblings joined forces back then, we still couldn’t take him down!"

"What shall we do then?"

"Hehe, here it’s the White Cloud Immortal City, we must conduct affairs according to the rules of the Immortal City, don’t we?" The sinister-looking man chuckled coldly.

...

Listening to their conversation, Yang Zhenshan immediately remembered why these two seemed somewhat familiar.

These two people are robbery cultivators!

He has only encountered robbery cultivators once, it was when he and Yu Qingyi went to the Lotus Heart Valley for the first time, and three Foundation Establishment robbery cultivators targeted them.

Three robbery cultivators, two men and one woman.

He killed that woman, but the remaining two men left.

At that time, he had just succeeded in Foundation Establishment not long ago, he simply could not retain them and had to rely on the teleportation ability of the Spirit Source Land to maneuver, so he ultimately had to let these two men leave.

Originally, Yang Zhenshan had forgotten about this matter, but hearing the conversation made him remember.

"Turns out they are my enemies!"

A cold glint appeared in Yang Zhenshan’s eyes.

...

Those two did not stay in the elegant room for long, Yang Zhenshan hadn’t even finished a pot of wine when they left the Drunken Cloud Tower.

Yang Zhenshan followed them out of the Drunken Cloud Tower from a distance, trailing them to the Cloud Wilderness Alliance.

Seeing them enter the Cloud Wilderness Alliance, Yang Zhenshan felt a bit uneasy!

This is the Cloud Wilderness Alliance!

A major power in the ranking within the White Cloud Immortal City.

Although unaware of their identity within the Cloud Wilderness Alliance, it is certain that they can surely leverage the power of the Cloud Wilderness Alliance against him.

Not to mention, their cultivation level is not low, one at the late stage of Foundation Establishment and one at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment.

A late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator definitely holds a significant position within the Cloud Wilderness Alliance dominated by Loose Cultivators.

Having someone like this targeting him, Yang Zhenshan found it a bit troublesome.

If it were outside the city, it would be no more than a battle, but this is within the city, the rules of the Immortal City are numerous and also serve as a constraint.

The Cloud Wilderness Alliance absolutely has the means to make it impossible for him to stay in the city, as for killing him.

This is something Yang Zhenshan is not worried about, at worst he would retreat to the Spirit Source Land, but doing so would likely cause trouble for Yun Xiao who is with him!

"Another reason why I have to join the Ten Thousand Treasures Store!"

Yang Zhenshan glanced at the Cloud Wilderness Alliance, and turned to return to Spring and Summer Square.

...

At Spring and Summer Square, inside the Cave Mansion.

Upon seeing Yang Zhenshan return, Yun Xiao asked, "How did it go? Did you figure it out?"

"Yes, they are targeting me!" Yang Zhenshan replied.

"What’s going on?" Yun Xiao asked.

"It’s a long story~~" Yang Zhenshan briefly explained to Yun Xiao, including the relationship between those two and the Cloud Wilderness Alliance, not hiding anything.

After hearing it, Yun Xiao’s face showed a serious expression.

"This is indeed a big problem!"

"How so?"

"Although the Cloud Wilderness Alliance is an Independent Practitioner Power, they have always acted domineeringly. If that person holds a late-stage Foundation Establishment Cultivation level, they are at least a Guest Elder in the Cloud Wilderness Alliance!"

Yun Xiao has considerable knowledge about the Cloud Wilderness Alliance, as he had considered joining it once.

"I see!" Yang Zhenshan thought for a moment, then said, "Why don’t you leave first!"

Yun Xiao frowned, "What do you mean by that? What kind of person are you taking me for?"

Yang Zhenshan immediately said, "No, you’ve misunderstood, of course, I trust the Senior’s integrity, but this is my personal problem and shouldn’t drag down the Senior!"

Yun Xiao shook his head, "We’ve known each other for over thirty years, I truly consider you a friend, speaking like this is quite insulting to one’s character!"

"Furthermore, my Xuanqing Sect is not afraid of the Cloud Wilderness Alliance. Although the Cloud Wilderness Alliance is strong, it has no Golden Core Cultivators, not enough to make my Xuanqing Sect retreat three miles!"

Divine Soul Realm Martial Artists are insignificant in front of Golden Core Cultivators, but without Golden Core Cultivators, Divine Soul Realm Martial Artists can crush Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Thus, the Three Sects of the Sea of Spirit can firmly dominate the Sea of Spirit.

The Cloud Wilderness Alliance has extensive power, possessing many Foundation Establishment Cultivators internally, but without Golden Core Cultivators, it truly wouldn’t dare threaten the Three Sects of Sea of Spirit.

Yang Zhenshan felt quite grateful for Yun Xiao’s maintenance.

Perhaps Yun Xiao also has some interest-based calculations, but as long as Yun Xiao is willing to help, he is worth befriending.

"Actually, I do have a way to deal with the Cloud Wilderness Alliance!" Yang Zhenshan said.

"What way?" Yun Xiao looked at him in surprise.

Yang Zhenshan is new here, how could he have a way to counter the threat of the Cloud Wilderness Alliance?

Relying on the Yang family, or the Illusion Moon Sect?

This is White Cloud Immortal City, not the Sea of Spirit, nobody here will accommodate the Three Sects of Sea of Spirit!

"Not hiding from the Senior, I just received an invitation from the Ten Thousand Treasures Store, inviting me to join the Ten Thousand Treasures Store, become a Guest Elder of theirs!" Yang Zhenshan said.

Yun Xiao’s eyes widened in shock, saying, "The Ten Thousand Treasures Store invited you to join? How could it be?"

Yang Zhenshan’s understanding of the Ten Thousand Treasures Store is relatively piecemeal, but Yun Xiao knows the terror of the Ten Thousand Treasures Store.

Not to mention, simply put, the presence of Ten Thousand Treasures Store in all major Immortal Cultivator gathering grounds in the Wanhua Western Region alone is enough to demonstrate the dread of the Ten Thousand Treasures Store.

The Ten Thousand Treasures Store is a commercial house, their operation within an Immortal City means they must divide the interests with local powers.

In the White Cloud Immortal City, the presence of the Ten Thousand Treasures Store takes away interests from the White Cloud True Monarch.

Yet the White Cloud True Monarch can tolerate the presence of the Ten Thousand Treasures Store.

This indicates even the White Cloud True Monarch must defer to the power behind the Ten Thousand Treasures Store.
