Soaring of Galaxia

Since the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had sealed off the news, the outside world was unaware of the disaster that had occurred at the sect had been orchestrated by Qin Wushuang. Therefore, their knowledge of Qin Wushuang was limited to a few rumors.

Perhaps to freelance martial artists, those rumors were shocking. Yet to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan, the most experienced and knowledgeable among all, these feats were not some world-shaking achievements.

If the news of how Qin Wushuang had single-handedly destroyed the base of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had spread out, most likely even those at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain would be stirred.

Seeing how these disciples did not show the slightest shock on their expression, Bao Bao felt somewhat distressed. Could it be that they had never heard of Boss, and his well-known reputation?

“Hey, what are your expressions?” Bao Bao said with an imperative tone, “I’ve already stated the name, why are you not reporting?”

Those few disciples smiled bitterly: “This way, you two are not Qin Wushuang?”

“Of course not, Qin Wushuang is our boss. He is currently stranded at the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect and is in an urgent situation. My boss had been contributing to the Qin Clan secretly. You won’t abandon someone in mortal danger without lifting a finger, right?”

Like a lit firecracker, Bao Bao kept speaking.

“If it were a disciple of the Qin in a difficult situation, we will not shirke our responsibilities. However, you two appear suspicious, how can you prove that you are disciples of the Qin Clan?”

Bao Bao was extremely anxious: “You are truly unaware of the situation. We are not disciples of the Qin Clan; we are only Boss Wushuang’s subordinates. For proof, my boss have too many proofs on him. Is it proof to help the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan? We have the identity plate of Qin Yu, ancestor of the Qin Clan, does this count as proof? We also have the remains of Senior Qin Shixu’s body, and his will, are these proofs?”

Upon hearing these words, these guardian disciples looked at each other in dismay. It sounded that he was not speaking without thinking. One of the older looking disciples said: “Then wait for a moment, I will report to the Elder in charge of this checkpoint. I will come back soon.”

“Go quickly, it’s best if you can report to the highest-ranking leader.”

This disciple rushed back up the mountain. In a moment, a beam of white light travelled through the cloudy mists and a figure dropped at the foot of the mountain. A middle-aged man wearing a handspun robe, straw sandals and carrying a conical bamboo hat on his back appeared. Adorned in the clothing of a wandering traveller, this person did seem apart of the secular world with his long whiskers.

“Elder Guan Qi.” The few disciples all went up to bow to him.

So the name of this man was called Elder Guan Qi. Bao Bao walked up: “Elder, long story short…”

“No need to speak, I will only ask one question, how did Qin Shixun died?”

When Bao Bao mentioned Qin Shixun, he had also become somewhat sullen. He recited their experience at the Wild Flame Cliff and emphasized: “At that time, Senior Qin Shixun was set on sacrificing himself to give us a means to escape. He also left my boss a storage bag that contained things such as Dark Meteor Metal, and Green Jade Essence of the Supreme Quality. It seems he had stolen it from either the Heavenly Punishing Villa or the Sound of Thunder sect.”

“Follow me.” As Elder Guan Qi said, he lifted his hand and dragged these two buffoons into the air. Following the ball of cloud, they dashed towards the mountain peak.

“Elder, great skill.” Bao Bao praised him deeply.

“Do you know why I believed in you guys?” Elder Guan Qi asked with a smile.

“No.” Bao Bao was straightforward.

“The Hundred Leaf Qin Clan had secretly sent the information and complimented you guys greatly. From that time, we started to pay attention to your movements. Only afterwards, Qin Wushuang did not go deeper into the Xuan Yuan Mound and got pushed back forcefully to the Human Countries by the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect. Due to the difficult situation of our sect in the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, the headquarters did not have much room to pay attention to Qin Wushuang’s later development.”

Overjoyed, Bao Bao asked proudly: This way, the headquarter is starting to pay attention to my boss’s reputation?”

“You can say it that way.” Elder Guan Qi seemed to have a good temperament and self-cultivation, “Besides, not only the Elders, the higher-ranking officials of the headquarters also learned about Qin Wushuang. It was a great contribution he had made in protecting the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan. Seldom has a young man from the Human Countries demonstrated such potential. In fact, it was an unexpected gain for the Qin Clan. We had intended to summon him to the headquarters to train him. Now it seems that he doesn’t need to come to train at the headquarter, the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect has already trained you guys well.”

This Elder Guan Qi was in a great mood and in amidst of their conversation, they had arrived at the top of the mountain. When Bao Bao looked back, he only saw groups of magnificent buildings among the cloudy mountains and sea of fog. Within the cloudy mist, different mountain peaks and valleys appeared indiscernible, serene and secretive. For such a grand vista, even the Heavenly Sun Mountain of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect could not match.

“No wonder it’s the Heavenly Emperor Mountain.” Bao Bao was deeply moved, “If our boss trains here, he would soon become the strongest among the Xuan Yuan Mound’s younger generation.”

“The strongest of the younger generation?” Elder Guan Qi laughed, “Those are some grand aspirations.”

“This is the truth! Elder, if you saw my boss, you will not feel that I was bluffing.” Bao Bao laughed and said.

Elder Guan Qi dropped them above the mountain cliff. Then, they walked inside. After passing through many side Palace Halls, they arrived before the gate of a great hall.

This great hall had a giant board attached to the wall in which four square-shaped bronzed letters were carved—Awe-Inspiring Upright Morality!

“This is the Upright Morality hall, go in.” Guan Qi greeted the guardian next to the entrance of the hall and took Bao Bao, Lone inside.

Indeed, this Upright Morality Hall was very imposing. Despite their frivolous style, they suppressed their usual playful attitude and obediently followed Elder Guan Qi.

After Guan Qi took these two to enter the Upright Morality Hall, a group of people dressed in similar clothing to him were sitting there. A few of them, judging from their identities and position, seemed to be more important than Guan Qi.

Regardless of Guan Qi or those few people with higher statuses, all appeared to be extremely respectful before that person sitting at the top.

Dressed in a yellow robe and standing in the middle of the Upright Morality Hall, he appeared like a statue and gave one a faint feeling of reverence.

Bao Bao and Lone did not even have the courage to look at the person directly. When they fixed their gaze onto that person, it seemed as if they were looking at a profound vortex. They felt dizzy after looking at him for less than a moment.

That person turned around and appeared to have soft skin and tender flesh. In fact, his face resembled an infant’s. If it weren’t for his towering figure, one would even doubt if he were an adult.

“It’s my honor to greet the Third Chief.”

That person waved his hand and said to Guan Qi: “Guan Qi, you sent your spiritual perception to everyone down at the mountain, is there an emergency?”

Elder Guan Qi stepped forward with utmost respect: “Third Chief, I remembered that you have issued an order to have everyone be attentive to a young man named Qin Wushuang. This one has appeared again at the Xuan Yuan Mound.”

“Oh? A while ago, wasn’t the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect pursuing him from all directions?” That Third Chief asked indifferently.

“Yes, despite the people of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect going to great effort with their pursuit, they were clueless. The higher they raised their bounties, the more it looked like a joke.”

That Third Chief could not refrain from smiling: “The longer the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect exists, the more they fail. Last time they attacked our disciples we sent to investigate Qin Wushuang. We haven’t settle this debt with them. I heard that Luo Hengye of the sect was running between the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder sect, it seems that this sect is determined to work against the Qin Clan, right?”

Elder Guan Qi smiled bitterly and did not know how to answer him.

Bao Bao caught his question and cried out: “Yes, you are absolutely right. The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect colluded with the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect to deal with the Qin Clan together, they want to replace the position the Qin Clan has at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain.”

A trace of embarrassment and humiliation flashed across everyone’s face. At the same time, they were also somewhat angered. The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had dared to consider themselves enemies of equal level to the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan?

Third Chief looked at Bao Bao and was doubtful: “Guan Qi, why did you bring these two little spiritual beasts up here?”

Bao Bao and Lone were startled. Currently, they were in their human forms. Even elite warriors of the Exquisite Mysteries Boundary might not see through their true form.

Unexpectedly, this Third Chief had easily perceived their true forms.

Guan Qi said: “Little spiritual beasts? Oh, right, they said they are Qin Wushuang’s friends and comrades. They have important matters to report.”

“Important matters?” Third Chief asked with a smile.

“Yes, Great Chief, I beg you, please hurry and save my Boss. You must act quick, if you wait until Luo Hengye borrows the Divine Weapon, it would be too late.”

“What’s going on, what does a Divine Weapon have to do with it?”

Bao Bao cried out: “You truly don’t know?”

“Know what?”

Seeing how they did not seem to be disguising it, Bao Bao gave a long sigh: “The matter of how someone had destroyed the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, you should have heard about it, right?”

Everyone nodded and to show they knew about it.

“My boss did it.” When Bao Bao spoke to here, he could not refrain from straightening his chest. Apparently, he felt proud of this heroic act, in spite of the fact that he was not the one that had done it. However, he felt it would not be a problem to borrow Qin Wushuang’s glory.

“Qin Wushuang destroyed the source of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect?” Third Chief could not help but laugh, “If I remembered correctly, Qin Wushuang had only and just entered the Refined Void Martial Stage, right?”

“Ah, Great Chief, don’t judge a person with past information. I am not lying; my boss had truly done it. The Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had a Subduing Devil Stone Tablet and it seemed to hold together the sect’s foundation. My boss shot it with three arrows of the Graceful Spiritual Bow and it collapsed. Then, the entire Heavenly Sun Mountain seemed to have collapsed. Yet, unfortunately, my boss was swept by the vortex of spiritual qi from beneath the stone tablet and was swallowed underground.”

Bao Bao described it with smiles of exultation as if he was the one that had made this great accomplishment. However, when he talked about Qin Wushuang’s later difficulties, his tone had become much sullen and anxious.

Everyone looked at each other in dismay. Vividly, they felt that this little spiritual beast was not speaking lies.

“Great Chief, I am speaking the truth. I’m not joking, if you don’t save my boss, certainly he will not make it through this time. His trump cards are not enough to resist against a Divine Weapon, or even elite warrior of the Supreme Dao!” Bao Bao was almost speaking with a begging tone.

“Since Qin Wushuang could shoot down the stone tablet, how come he cannot get out?” Someone questioned him.

“It’s not because my boss is incapable of getting out of the ground, but he cannot escape capture if he does. The Heavenly Luo Doaist sect borrowed some hawk from the Heavenly Punishing Villa and discovered my boss’s location. It’s keeping watch on him. Once my boss show signs of breaking out, those of the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect will surround him with an inescapable net. You would not think that my boss have the defying strength to fight against the entire sect, alone?”

Having heard everything, the Third Chief frowned deeply. In fact, he was shocked by this perilous situation. This was an accidental fortune, a great and unexpected harvest!

To the Heavenly Emperor Qin Clan, a sect that had slowly waned as days passed by, a young man like Qin Wushuang was indeed, a piece of unpolished gem sent by the Heavens!
