Just then, the cultivators who withdrew from Muguang Mountain to the South Continent noticed that there was a lot of prenatal qi around Luoshen River. The news of this gradually spread.
Soon, Luoshen River had been occupied by the major families from the South Continent.
Mu Qingfeng had also returned to the Mu Family’s ancestral home.
Liu Yu circled the Luoshen River.
The Mu Family and Xia Family were both here.
The South Continent had not descended into chaos yet.
But as the news spread farther and farther, numerous families from Zhongzhou secretly sent people to the South Continent to check this out for themselves.
After confirming this news, many people in Zhongzhou were shocked.
Many of the Zhongzhou masters who couldn’t stay in Zhongzhou any longer flocked to the South Continent one after another.
“I would never guess that the people from Zhongzhou would come here one day!”
“It feels so good! The Zhongzhou people are now relying on us.”
However, after a few days of the South Continent people gloating, a large number of Zhongzhou masters poured into the South Continent to seize their territory. They began to slaughter the South Continent people.
Some people sought refuge with the Xia Family and Mu Family’s houses near Luoshen River.
Others rushed to Mount Yan.
“Why should such a good place belong to the South Continent slaves? If they use these prenatal qi to become masters, how can we Zhongzhou people survive?”
“We should kill these The South Continent bastards. Then, this place will be ours.”
Outside Mount Yan, in front of Baiyun Temple, hundred of Zhongzhou horse bandits surrounded the temple.
Outside Baiyun Temple, several palace maids frowned unhappily. “Why are there so many savages here? Get lost!”
The group of people in front of them looked coarse, behaved rudely, and looked like a bunch of savages.
“Savages? Little girl, I’ll show you what a savage is.”
“How dare you speak so crudely in front of the Princess!” One of the palace maids said furiously, waving the long sword in her hand at one of the bandits.
Where did he come from?
How dare he insult the princess.
“You’re just a chick in the Spirit Manipulation Realm. How dare you be so presumptuous? Let me show you!”
The bandit grabbed her sword and tossed it away.
Then, he reach out and grabbed the palace maid.
“Help!” The palace maid yelled.
She never thought that this savage would turn out to be a master.
And she never thought that her innocence would be ruined by this savage.
She felt a sense of humiliation in the bottom of her heart.
“Since we fled from Zhongzhou, I haven’t touched a chick in these two years. Today, I’m going to change that!” The bandit’s eyes were red.
When the other bandits saw this, they bared their teeth and surged forward into Baiyun Temple.
“This one is mine!” Haha!”
Hundreds of people rushed forward.
Ding! Ding! Dong!
The sound of a piano rang through Baiyun Temple.
However, the sound of the piano only stopped the bandits for a moment.
A burst of light appeared in the sky.
Then, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly.
The hundreds of horse bandits were covered with strange tattoos and wore large nose rings and earrings.
“Awesome, there is a chick at the pinnacle of the saint-level too! I can’t wait!” The leader of the bandits chuckled.
Opening his mouth wide, he spit out a mouthful of phlegm to the side and stepped into the Baiyun Temple.
Meanwhile, inside Baiyun Temple, Liu Rui vomited a mouthful of blood.
She sat up, face pale.
“They’re from Zhongzhou. Run!” She shouted as she got to her feet.
Just then, the bandit leader appeared in front of her.
“How beautiful!” The bandit leader yelled, licking his lips.
He reached out to grab Liu Rui.
Whoosh!
A long sword flew over.
The bandit leader turned quickly and dodged it.
A middle-aged man dressed in yellow and with a crown on his head appeared in front of them.
“You are only a third level Perfected Person. I thought it would be someone more powerful.”
“Who are you?” The leader of the bandits asked solemnly.
“Who am I? Since you dare to offend my eldest sister, I’m the one that is going to kill you.”
After killing the group of bandits, Liu An brought Liu Rui back to the palace.
Many masters from Zhongzhou were gathered outside.
The originally peaceful Imperial Capital was now filled with killing.
Many of the masters in the Imperial Capital had fled.
And many of the State of Great Xia’s warriors’ cultivation levels were generally lower than that of the Zhongzhou people.
Seeing how dangerous the palace had become, Liu An suddenly felt a sense of sadness.
Meanwhile, in the Qianyuan Sacred Ground’s Forbidden Ground…
“Ancestor, how can I take revenge?”
In front of the giant golden lotus, Qiu Baihui knelt before the old man with long eyebrows.
After years of fighting, together with the resources of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground, Qiu Baihui’s cultivation level had reached the second level of the Virtual Realm.
Because she understood the rules of the wind, she was able to escape from fights easily.
As such, she had been lucky enough to survive till now.
Qiu Baihui had contributed greatly to the Qianyuan Sacred Ground in this battle.
“Qiu Baihui, let me give you a task. Go to the Huanhai Sacred Ground and help me pass a message to them.” The old man with long eyebrows looked even older than before.
“Ancestor, I only care about revenge.”
“Don’t worry. This message you are passing to the Huanhai Sacred Ground is crucial for taking revenge after the battle,” said the long-brow old man as he glanced at the remaining gray lotus petals.
After so many years of planning, he didn’t expect that he would still be dealing with the same issue in Zhongzhou.
If things went on like this, Zhongzhou would be destroyed.
Even if Zhongzhou was unified, it would still be in a mess.
Countless of masters had escaped to the South Continent to survive.
He was afraid that the South Continent would become restless again many years later.
Not only did the Qianyuan Sacred Ground need the cultivation channels there, in order to make sure his future plans would work, he must stop the rise of the South Continent.
He would leave the East Continent and North Continent to the demon!
“Really?” Qiu Baihui was pleasantly surprised.
“Yes! As long as you can persuade the Huanhai Sacred Ground to stop the war, we can destroy the South Continent.”
“The Huanhai Sacred Ground fought so fiercely against us. I’m afraid…”
“I will show that we are sincere.”
Later that day, an old man covered in blood appeared at the Xia Family’s house, near Luoshen River.
The old man stood at the door of Xia Family’s house, deep in thought.
He seemed to be reminiscing about something.
There was a strong suppressing force coming from the man.
Seeing this, the guard at the gate of Xia Family’s house didn’t dare to move.
“Who are you?”
Soon, a young man emerged from the Xia Family’s house.
The young man narrowed his eyes as he stared at the old man in front of him.
Who was this person?
They had a half-step Virtual Realm cultivation level.
“Old Demon Han has something important to tell the Xia Family’s Elder.” Old Mo Han looked at Liu Yu’s stunned face.
Why did this young man seem so familiar?
“You are Old Demon Han?” Liu Yu was shocked.
A long time ago, back in the palace, he had heard of Old Demon Han before.
Old Demon Han had been injured and arrested by a master in the palace.
His mother had told him a lot about this matter.
He didn’t expect that he would see Old Demon Han now.
“You are the Old Demon Han who broke into the palace many years ago and was arrested?” Liu Yu asked.
“Are you from the Liu family?”
“Yes!”
“That’s good, take me to see your Xia family, this matter is very important.” Overjoyed, Old Demon Han said eagerly.
“The ancestor is not here. You can tell me instead.”
“Do you have any say about this matter?” Old Mo Han didn’t believe him.
“Maybe not, but in most cases, my words hold some weight in the Xia family.” Liu Yu invited Old Demon Han into the newly built Xia Family’s courtyard at Luoshen River.
The newly built house by the Xia Family was not big.
There were hundreds of yards and more than 300 households in total.
It was much smaller than Bailing Valley.
“I was entrusted by a South Continent master from the Qianyuan Sacred Ground to pass you a message. The Qianyuan Sacred Ground may be having a truce with Huanhai and the other Sacred Grounds. They plan to attack the South Continent together.”
“What?”
Damn it!
Liu Yu stood up from his seat.
He couldn’t believe it!
He must be dreaming.
The two Sacred Grounds had been fighting fiercely for so many years, How could they have suddenly joined forces?
