Chapter 350 Undercurrents
Luojiang Academy.
night.
Villa No. 98.
"Wait, Sister Yi, Wei Lan is calling now."
Xiao Weiqing held down Qian Yi's fidgeting hands.
"You answer it, don't worry about me..."
Having said that, Qian Yi walked to the side without disturbing them.
Communication is established.
"Brother Qing?"
"Why did it take you so long to answer the video call?"
On the other end of the video call, Wei Lan was wearing a thin nightgown, her hair was wet, so she must have just taken a shower.
"Oh, I just... had something to do."
"I'll take my leave now. Let's contact each other another day."
"Everything's fine now, don't hang up," Xiao Weiqing said. "What about you? Have you left the secret realm?"
"Yeah, I missed you, so I came out for some fresh air," Wei Lan said with a smile.
Xiao Weiqing said, "I'll go to the capital city and come find you later."
Okay.
Wei Lan was very happy.
The two video-chatted for a long time, with Wei Lan doing most of the talking, discussing matters related to the Illusionary Moon Star Lord. Everything Wei Lan knew was from what Xiao Yue had told him.
Having not seen each other for a long time, Wei Lan would inevitably give Xiao Weiqing some perks, making Xiao Weiqing's blood boil.
Half an hour later.
Wei Lan reluctantly ended the video call.
Xiao Weiqing suppressed the restlessness in his heart.
But unexpectedly.
Qian Yi rushed forward.
"You little rascal, it's finally over. Do you know how it feels to watch your man flirting with another woman?"
Xiao Weiqing's expression was somewhat unnatural.
"I'm sorry, Sister Yi, I..."
Qian Yi chuckled. "What, you think I'd be upset?"
"what?"
Qian Yi leaned close to Xiao Weiqing's ear, her breath hot on his lips, "At first, there was a little, but when that little girl was seducing you, I actually felt a slight thrill..."
"..."
"The next time you video chat, I think..."
Xiao Weiqing's eyes widened upon hearing Qian Yi's words, and he swallowed hard.
"As expected, men are all the same; their hearts are beating so fast!"
Qian Yi's eyes were alluring as she teased him.
"Damn fairy~"
"You've disturbed my resolve!"
Amid Qian Yi's gasp, Xiao Weiqing picked her up and threw her onto the bed.
A battle has begun.
......
In the blink of an eye.
A few days have passed.
early morning.
Xiao Weiqing got up from beside the soft, jade-like body.
"Gone?"
Qian Yi sat up halfway, her languid voice ringing out.
"Um."
"The Azure Dragon Temple will send someone to Kyoto Prefecture in a few days, and I need to go there ahead of time."
"Then be careful, don't forget, Wei Lan isn't the only one waiting for you now."
Xiao Weiqing looked at Qian Yi tenderly.
"Yes, I know."
"Wait until I get back this time..."
"Wait, why are you planting flags like this?" Qian Yi interrupted.
Xiao Weiqing was taken aback. "Plant a flag?"
"Yeah, that's how it is in movies and TV shows. People like you who plant flags basically never come back," Qian Yi said, rubbing her eyes.
Xiao Weiqing: "..."
"Go ahead and come back quickly. I need to catch up on some sleep. You really wore me out last night."
Qian Yi turned over and fell asleep again.
Xiao Weiqing washed up.
He took all the elixirs with him, dressed in ordinary clothes, and boarded the flying train to the South Gate, where he prepared to enter Kyoto Prefecture on a passenger aircraft.
A flight of several hours.
Xiao Weiqing arrived in Kyoto Prefecture, entered the prefectural city discreetly, and then disappeared without a trace.
......
late at night.
"That's about it, let's do it tonight."
Dongfang Baichen said.
"it is good."
Xie Zhiyuan did not stop him.
Dongfang Baichen said, "I have already spread the word that the Dongfang family does not want to return the Azure Dragon Divine Stele. I was too eager for quick success and instant benefits and was in a hurry to break through to the ninth realm. I made a mistake in my cultivation and damaged my soul."
This was a plan the two had devised long ago. For the Azure Dragon Temple, Dongfang Baichen's injury was an opportunity that would come once in a lifetime.
It all depends on whether the Azure Dragon Temple will intervene.
Dongfang Baichen asked, "By the way, has Xiao Weiqing arrived?"
Xie Zhiyuan said, "We arrived at noon."
"Where are we?"
"Should I send someone to bring him in?"
Xie Zhiyuan shook his head, "No need, he's right outside the courtyard."
"What? Outside the yard?"
Dongfang Baichen was startled. He released his spiritual power, covering a radius of one kilometer within the courtyard. No living being could escape his detection, but he found no trace of Xiao Weiqing.
"this..."
This action, of course, did not escape Xie Zhiyuan's notice.
"No need to waste your energy, Xiao Weiqing's spiritual strength is far superior to yours and mine," Xie Zhiyuan said with a smile.
He didn't say it was because of that feather. Although Xiao Weiqing possessed a superior divine soul, his mental strength level was still inferior to Xie Zhiyuan and Dongfang Baichen.
It's unrealistic to expect that powerful figures like Xie Zhiyuan and Dongfang Baichen, who have one foot in the ninth realm, wouldn't notice anything.
We can only rely on the feathers left behind by the demigod Koren.
You should know that this thing can block the soul detection of a Star Lord.
However, there's no need to tell Dongfang Baichenming this.
Dongfang Baichen suppressed his shock and nodded slightly.
......
The next day.
Many top families and eighth-realm experts in the Great Xia Dynasty have been asked, intentionally or unintentionally, whether they have ever seen Soul Nourishing Stones, Sacred Heart Grass, Heavenly Soul Flowers, and other things that many people have never even heard of.
At first, everyone was a little curious about what was going on.
As the head of the Eastern family sought help from the Vermilion Bird Empire.
Some "insiders" finally realized what was happening.
Dongfang Baichen, the undisputed strongest man in the Great Xia Dynasty and a member of the Dongfang family, encountered a problem in his cultivation. He developed a divine soul, but it was damaged.
This message.
Once the news spread among the top experts of the Great Xia Dynasty, it immediately caused a huge uproar.
The rumor that cultivating a divine soul is a condition for entering the ninth realm has been completely confirmed.
Previously, people only had suspicions, without direct evidence or specific examples. Dongfang Hao, the only one who had ever stepped into the Ninth Realm, mysteriously disappeared after the battle on Qinglong Island.
Canglan Academy.
An ordinary residential building.
Inside a room.
An elderly man in shabby clothes murmured, "Soul?"
"To enter the Ninth Realm, one must cultivate the divine soul? But... how exactly does one cultivate a divine soul?"
Ziyun Academy.
In the north, atop the snow-capped mountains.
A burly man, undeterred by the wind and cold, sat here for months.
"That's Dongfang Baichen for you! He's gotten ahead of me again!"
Qingyu Mansion
Wang family.
A dark, secret room.
"Dongfang Baichen, how did he cultivate his divine soul?" The old man's voice rang out, tinged with doubt. "However, his method must be wrong, otherwise he wouldn't have been injured. Hmph... Just wait, the first person to step into the ninth realm will definitely be me, Wang Song."
......
Qinglong Island.
Azure Dragon Temple.
"What business does the divine messenger have with my brother and me?"
The two middle-aged men addressed the Azure Dragon Envoy.
The two look alike and are clearly twins.
"Go to the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty for me."
"Because of Dongfang Baichen?"
It was no secret among the top experts on Blue Star that Dongfang Baichen of the Great Xia Dynasty had been seriously injured. Although the two were not from the Great Xia Dynasty, they knew a little about it.
"Um."
"Divine Envoy, it's not that my brother and I are unwilling, but Kyoto Prefecture is no ordinary place. After all, we are people of the Heavenly Wolf Empire. If we rashly sneak in now and are discovered, we may not be able to leave Kyoto Prefecture alive."
"As for Dongfang Baichen, he's not someone to be trifled with, and the Dongfang family is even more so."
