Chapter 86: Zhou Qin.

Edited by: Mochiusagi 

Late at night.

Instead of sleeping, Shen Changqing simply sat down.

At his current realm, unless he had exhausted himself, it wouldn’t be a big problem if he didn’t sleep for a day or two.

Talking to Zhong Chi earlier gave Shen Changqing some understanding of the situation in Jin City.

The main thing was the problem with the Eternal Life Alliance.

“It seems that I really have to go to the Ten Thousand Flowers Pavilion and check it out, once I get the chance.”

Shen Changqing thought to himself.

He was not interested in indulgening the pleasures of the body.

If he hadn’t sensed the Evil Aura on Qing’er’s body, he wouldn’t have entered the place to begin with.

After entering the Ten Thousand Flowers Pavilion, he only noticed the Evil Aura on Qing’er, and he did not find the same Evil Aura from others.

But Shen Changqing wasn’t too bothered by this.

After all, the Evil Aura was obscure. The other party must have means to hide it.

Shen Changqing was very confident in his own perception and he could even feel the Evil Aura, even if it’s faint, as long as he was close to the source.

Shen Changqing didn’t tell Zhong Chi this because it wouldn’t make a difference. Knowing that the Evil Aura was being hidden doesn’t change anything unless the person searching could sense it, like Shen Changqing could.

The Heavenly Inspection Guard also had long understood that the Ten Thousand Flowers Pavilion was strange, and was already cautious when investigating. 

Shen Changqing then thought of Xu Yi and others.

“They shouldn’t be that quick to start. They should still be gathering information right now. I just hope that they won’t be too hasty.”

Shen Changqing blew out the oil lamp and walked to the bed. He took off his shoes and sat cross-legged, as he silently began to Cultivate the [Heavenly Martial Astral Qi].

“Miss, it’s getting late, why don’t we go back to rest?”

In the courtyard of a mansion, a beautiful maid, who looked around 15 or 16 years old, was looking at the pitch-black scene around her. She couldn’t help, but feel scared.

In front of her was a slightly older and likewise pretty woman.

The woman was holding a long sword and wearing all white. She was definitely far from ordinary.

“If you are afraid, then you can go back first!”

Zhou Qin’s words were slightly cold. Her beautiful eyes were always on alert as she scanned the surrounding environment.

“When did my Zhou Family fall to the point where they would be frightened by a monster and abandon the ancestral residence! And now they’re asking for help from outsiders? Such shame! Today, I will see what kind of monster dares to attack the Zhou Family!”

She was the eldest Young Miss of the Zhou Family. Since she had a good talent in Martial Arts, she left home very early and joined a Sect.

She only goes home during the New Year’s holiday.

But who would have thought that the Zhou Family Residence had been invaded by a monster! Many died and the family had started inviting Martial Artists from all over the place. Naturally, the Patriarch of the Zhou Family also passed the news to the Young Miss of the Zhou Family.

When Zhou Qin got the news, she immediately rushed back to Jin City.

The moment she arrived in Jin City, she took some people with her and broke into the abandoned Zhou Family ancestral residence.

After being reprimanded, the maid didn’t dare to complain anymore.

Zhou Qin said in a deep voice, “Pay attention to the movement around you. If something is wrong, let me know as soon as possible.”

“Yes—” The maid replied in a low voice.

After that, Zhou Qin didn’t speak anymore.

The long sword in her hand had been drawn and was pointed diagonally to the ground, as she slowly walked forward.

The Zhou Family was a famous family in Jin City, and their ancestral residence was not small.

The back garden they were in right now was decorated with rocks and flowing water. There was also a pavilion. Under the light from the moon, many long shadows were casted on the ground.

“According to what other people said, everyone’s body was found in the back garden.”

“That is to say—”

“It is very likely that the monster exists in the back garden.”

Zhou Qin recalled the information she got, as her True Qi began circulating. Her perception was maximized and was on high alert.

A monster’s strength was not weaker than Qi Circulation Realm Cultivators.

But Zhou Qin was considered an outstanding talent in the Sect. As early as a year ago, she was promoted to the Qi Circulation Realm.

Zhou Qin was not afraid of facing a monster of the same level.

“Miss, there’s a shadow—” The maid behind her suddenly screamed.

“Where?”

Zhou Qin turned her head and saw the maid’s pale face.

The maid was terrified in her heart, as she pointed to the left side with trembling fingers: “Just now, just now, I, I saw a white, white shadow flash by-” Zhou Qin followed the direction the maid pointed and saw a tall rock formation.

Without any hesitation, she jumped and headed towards the rock formation.

Zhou Qin then checked everything around her, but found nothing unusual.

At this time, a shrill scream suddenly sounded.

“Not good!”

Zhou Qin’s expression changed, and she returned to her original position.

The maid, who was standing in the same place, was nowhere to be seen.

Through the moonlight, she could clearly see dark red blood.

“Damn it!” Looking at the blood on the ground, Zhou Qin’s face was gloomy.

She didn’t need to think about it to understand what happened to the maid.

Not only did she not find the monster, she even lost a person!

It was impossible for her to not be angry.

However—

Other than anger, Zhou Qin was also slightly startled. Strictly speaking, the rock formation was not far, and the total distance was only about two to three meters. So how did she not detect anything?

It could be seen from this, that the methods of the monster were strange and unpredictable.

At this time, a strong wind blew to the back of her neck and a piercing chill ran through her body.

That chill made Zhou Qin feel her blood freeze.

At this time, her True Qi exploded.

She stepped back and then turned around while slashing her sword out, which then collided with a pale hand.

[Boom~]!

The palm grabbed the sword’s blade, as if it was just a dull piece of steel.

When the palm held the long sword, a frightening chill poured out of it and into the sword.

Soon, a layer of frost began to form on the sword.

Seeing the frost spreading and was about to reach the sword hilt, Zhou Qin was startled. She could only let go of it and withdraw.

It was only now that she could see what was in front of her.

It was an old woman with a thin body, pointed mouth and monkey cheeks, a blue face, as well as a pair of chill-inducing emerald green eyes.

The long sword was now completely covered with frost. As soon as the monster let go of it and it hit the ground, the sword broke into several pieces, as if it was made of ice.

The monster then disappeared.

Zhou Qin didn’t have the time to be shocked, as she felt a strong wind blowing behind her. However, she did dare not touch the opponent again.

Tapping her feet, her body glided into the distance. 

After pulling some distance, Zhou Qin was just about to let out a sigh of relief, when she felt a sudden change in front of her. A terrifying face had appeared in front of her.

At that moment, it felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

Without even thinking about it, all of her True Qi erupted. She raised her palm and struck.

[Boom~]

Her True Qi-covered jade-like hand hit the monster’s body.

The monster slightly retreated, but at the same time, it also sent out a palm strike of its own. Zhou Qin had no time to react, as the attack was already coming.

[Boom~]!

A bone-piercing chill struck her, causing Zhou Qin’s body to fly out.

When she was about to hit the ground, Zhou Qin forcefully twisted her body and tapped her toes, as she left the Zhou Family’s ancestral residence.

The whole process happened in an instant.

After leaving the Zhou Family’s ancestral residence, Zhou Qin didn’t dare to pause for even half a breath. She went directly to the place where the Zhou Family currently lived.

The next day.

Shen Changqing got up early. When he was about to wash his face, he noticed a piece of paper under the washbasin.

Needless to say, this was a message from the Heavenly Inspection Guard.

Spreading out the paper, Shen Changqing read the content above and was slightly surprised.

“I didn’t expect the Zhou Family to actually have some vision. I guess this is why they managed to grow this far.”

The content on the paper was about Zhou Qin’s information and her Sect.

The Yi Jian Sect!

A relatively well-known force in the Great Wilderness Province.

The strongest in the Yi Jian Sect was a Grandmaster. Any Sect with a Grandmaster could be regarded as a big Sect.

“A Sect with a Grandmaster, no matter where it is, has a high status. The Zhou Family had the foresight to let their talented clansman join the Yi Jian Sect beforehand.”

This was a world where it was impossible to gain a stable foothold just by having wealth. Strength was equally important.

The Zhou Family was rich.

Now, they also had someone in a Sect.

With both money and strength, a family could prosper for a long time.

After looking through the information about the Yi Jian Sect, Shen Changqing next paid attention to the information about Zhou Qin.

“Zhou Qin, the eldest daughter of the Zhou Family Head, was sent to Yi Jian Sect at the age of 14, and she broke through to the Qi Circulation Realm at the age of 17. She was known as the most outstanding disciple of the Yi Jian Sect in the past 10 years and she had the chance to break through to the Innate Realm.”

“She was now 18 years old and was suspected to be in the middle stage of the Qi Circulation Realm. She just returned to Jin City yesterday and went into the Zhou Family’s ancestral residence last night. However, she was defeated by the monster and suffered serious injuries.”

“Zhou Qin—”

Shen Changqing’s eyes flickered after looking at the information.

Entering the Yi Jian Sect at the age of 14 and breaking through the Qi Circulation Realm at 17. She was indeed a genius.

Although in the Demon Suppression Division, most people could be promoted to an Official Slayer and Qi Circulation Realm within a year or less… In actuality, everyone who could enter the Demon Suppression Division and become an Apprentice Slayer had a strong talent in Martial Arts compared to other people.

Simply put, the Demon Suppression Division was where the talented gathered.
