Wang Ye's mastery of Feng Hou Qi Men and Da Luo Cave Temple sets them apart from the other Eight Extraordinary Techniques, as they require a unique level of insight to learn; otherwise, one risks losing their way. Compared to the other six techniques, the chances of these two being lost to time are significantly higher.
Thus, if someone truly possesses the ability to perceive the cultivation methods without becoming lost, Wang Ye would impart Feng Hou Qi Men to them. When encountering others, Wang Ye first assesses whether they can learn Feng Hou Qi Men. If it were Sera and her companions, and he determined they could grasp the technique, he would share it with them. However, Wang Ye would refrain from probing into the matters surrounding Sera and her friends; the last time he did so, a mere glance nearly cost him his life.
He glanced at the now-vanished Li Yunqing and shook his head. After hailing a taxi, he headed to the high-speed train station. It was time to return home; after all, one cannot linger outside forever when there is a vast inheritance awaiting him.
Upon returning to Longhu Mountain, Zhang Chulan received Tongtian Lu and handed it over to Sera and her group. Sera was waiting for Li Yunqing to return so she could make a copy; it was no longer needed anyway. Nightfall approached quickly.
The Old Celestial Master led Zhang Chulan into his house. "Relax your mind," he instructed, "only then can you accept the Heavenly Master Degree."
Zhang Chulan watched as the Old Celestial Master held a golden orb in his hand, sensing something but too apprehensive to dwell on it. Meanwhile, Feng Baobao stood outside, waiting for Zhang Chulan to emerge. She had been instructed to keep watch; if he didn’t come out, she was not to leave her post.
He intended to inquire about Feng Baobao’s origins. She stood still, gazing at the dazzling light emanating from the second floor.
Rustle.
Hmm?
Feng Baobao looked around at the nearby bushes, sensing movement within them. She glanced briefly but dismissed it; her duty was merely to guard the door—anything else was not her concern. The bushes stirred again, revealing a figure.
Feng Baobao glanced back at the shimmering second floor one last time before turning her attention to the figure ahead. Zhang Chulan took a quick look at Feng Baobao and then dashed into the forest. Feng Baobao followed closely behind.
She recalled what Xu Si had told her earlier that day: anyone who bore hostility towards her and Zhang Chulan was her enemy, and she should not hold back. Although Zhang Chulan looked exactly the same, his aura was different; Feng Baobao recognized Zhang Chulan's unique energy.
Sera and Lilu Lu watched as Feng Baobao disappeared into the distance and decided to follow her. They anticipated an ambush, knowing that Balen, who possessed Liu Ku Xian Zai, would be involved. Sera and Lilu Lu were confident they could defeat Balen and obtain his Liu Ku Xian Zai.
As for Kanao Tsuyuri and Shinobu Kocho, their target was Old Tian, a person who could potentially be saved. Who would have thought that Xiao Tong Xiao Yuzi, who had been by Old Tian's side for so long, was actually the acting leader of Quan Xing? Once Xiao Yuzi killed Old Tian, Lu Liang would come to extract his memories. Lu Liang had somehow obtained the complete version of Shuangquan Shou and had begun training in it, though he hadn't shared this with anyone. It was only when he revealed his healing abilities that others would become aware.
Within Tianshi Mansion, a group of Quan Xing members no longer hid their presence; they launched an attack on the nearby leaders in an instant, managing to catch a few off guard. The remaining leaders quickly regrouped, distancing themselves from those who were not part of Tianshi Mansion.
Observing the techniques employed by these individuals around him, it was clear they were using underhanded and sinister methods. Only Quan Xing could muster such numbers and employ such dubious tactics. What were the demons of Quan Xing thinking? Why were they attacking Longhu Mountain?
The Tianshi were momentarily caught off guard; they certainly knew how to pick their moments! The leaders engaged in fierce combat with the demons of Quan Xing. Often, it took several of them to deal with just one leader from Tianshi Mansion.
Just as the leaders found themselves in a tough battle, staff members dressed in uniforms arrived and began launching surprise attacks from behind Quan Xing. Xu San used telekinesis to hurl stones at one of the Quan Xing demons.
Looking around at the scene, he wondered how so many Quan Xing demons had arrived. Was this everyone? It was infuriating; they hadn't brought enough people!
He had brought more than half of the people from his district, yet it still wasn't enough. What exactly did Quan Xing want? Zhang Chulan? Tongtian Lu?
Xu San glanced up at the top of Tianshi Mansion. Although he couldn't see the building, he knew where the Old Celestial Master and Zhang Chulan were. He also had no idea what would happen if something went wrong during the transmission of Tianshi.
There was nothing he could do but join his companions in resisting Quan Xing.
Meanwhile, Feng Baobao had followed Jia Zhang Chulan into the encirclement. She easily dodged a few minor attacks and traps before catching up with Jia Zhang Chulan. Upon closer inspection, she confirmed that their appearances were indeed identical.
Feng Baobao took a glance and prepared to leave. "Bao Er Jie, where are you going?"
Jia Zhang Chulan not only looked the same but sounded the same as well. "I’m going back to find Zhang Chulan."
Yu Hua stared at Feng Baobao in shock. Did she know I was a fake?
However, an old man blocked Feng Baobao's path. "I told you, your little tricks are useless against experts. They see beyond mere appearances; they can sense energy as well. Can you mimic both form and energy?"
Xia Liuqing looked at Feng Baobao. "Little girl, your form is light and your energy is light; you have the demeanor of an immortal!"
Feng Baobao shot a glance at Xia Liuqing, intending to bypass him directly. Suddenly, a man in military uniform appeared behind her, grabbing her hand and forcing it behind her back while pressing his knee against her head. He aimed a knife at her temple.
Swoosh!
Blood erupted forth. In that final moment, Feng Baobao used her other hand to block the dagger. Though her palm was pierced, she showed no reaction.
She shrugged off the locked shoulder and twisted her body, delivering a kick that sent Balen flying.
Balen raised his hands to shield himself but was still knocked back.
