Chapter 1151: The Two Ladies’ Plan
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"Run!"
"Run away!"
"We must get out of here!" That was the only thought Li Fei, and Ke'er had in their minds as they fled.
They helped each other pass through the mountain forest with the rough terrain. They turned left and right, tearing through the foliage without having a destination in mind.
Currently, they had no destination to go to. The only thing they wanted to do was to get far away from the Yin Yang Sect and to run for their lives!
"Sister Fei'er, do you think Senior Sister could possibly live?" Concern flashed on Ke'er's shy face as her bright eyes were filled with tears while she spoke to Li Fei beside her softly.
Li Fei became quiet after hearing what she said.
She was silent because she knew it was almost impossible for their Senior Sister to be alive.
"I wonder how did the volcano at Yang Peak erupt out of nowhere. I guess they didn't come after us because of that… Sister Ke'er, we must get out of here and continue our lives so that we can avenge Master and Senior Sister!" Li Fei glanced at Yang Peak that was spewing lava continuously behind them and changed the topic as she spoke to Ke'er next to her.
"Hmm." Ke'er nodded with determination while vengeance sparkled in her eyes. 'I must avenge Master and Senior Sister! I must!!' A seed of retribution was growing in Ke'er's heart.
"That way!" Li Fei said to Ke'er and made a turn. They proceeded on their journey away from the Yin Yang Sect through a short-cut.
They dared not fly in the air. Although it would be much faster, they would be an easy target.
With their cultivation base, anyone could catch up with them very soon if they flew in the air. Therefore, speed was not their priority. All they wanted to do was to get away alive.
Whoosh!
A golden silhouette halted suddenly not far away in the air from where the two ladies were. It was a big and tall old man in a golden robe.
"The scent got mixed up here… It's hard to trace it now." The golden-robed old man was none other than the Gold Thug, who Duan Ling Tian had instructed to retrieve Ke'er and Li Fei, and he was frowning right now.
His true form was a Hell Golden Hound. It was a dog demon beast with an extra sharp snout.
However, although his nose was sharp, the scent in the area was mixed up, causing the two scents that he was tracking to become untraceable at the moment.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
…
Without any further delay, the Gold Thug was flying back and forth in an attempt to find the two scents, but his effort was to no avail.
"Oh well… The only way is to scream now," the Gold Thug sighed, 'Hopefully, the two liege ladies can hear me and meet me in time… That way, I can report to Master when I get back.'
As he thought to himself, the Gold Thug did not dawdle any further as he screamed after opening his mouth, "To the two liege ladies! My master is Duan Ling Tian, and he has arrived at the Yin Yang Sect. If you hear me, please come out of hiding and follow me to see my master." The Gold Thug's voice contained Sixth Level Monarch Stage Origin Energy. It was like an explosive thunder as he spoke, sweeping through the mountain forest around.
At that moment, he scared the birds which flew away.
There were two ladies in white clutching tightly to each other in a canyon near the mountain. They stayed close to the mountain wall and looked above at that moment.
Unfortunately, they did not see anything.
However, they had heard the scream earlier loud and clear.
"To the two liege ladies! My master is Duan Ling Tian, and he has arrived at the Yin Yang Sect now. If you hear me, please come out of hiding and follow me to see my master."
Very soon, the voice echoed again although this time, it was a little further away. It was apparent that the person had moved further away.
At that moment, the two ladies who hid in the canyon felt relieved.
"Sister Fei'er, do you think he's really Young Master's underling?" One of them blushed shyly on her beautiful cheeks as she looked at Li Fei next to her and asked with a little hesitation. She was Ke'er.
"Judging from the range that the person's voice can reach, his cultivation is at least above Fourth Level Martial Monarch Stage! Do you think the rascal would call Young Master 'Master'?" Li Fei shook her head.
Ke'er became quiet after hearing what Li Fei said.
She was right.
It was impossible that their Young Master would get an underling with a cultivation base above the Fourth Level Martial Monarch Stage even if their Young Master really were there.
Every Martial Monarch powerhouse was arrogant. Unless the person had a more powerful martial ability, it was impossible that a powerhouse would become someone's underling, let alone call someone "Master".
"Although the rascal is powerful, the cultivation resources are limited at the Seven Star Sword Sect in the Azure Forest Imperial Kingdom. Even if he made it to the Darkstone Empire or even the Darkhan Dynasty, it's impossible for the elevation of his ability to be on par with ours," Li Fei voiced her speculation, "Even if he left the Darkhan Dynasty and joined a third-rate or even a second-rate force in the Outer Land… It's impossible for him to have a higher elevation than ours."
"So, this person's definitely not the rascal's man! He must be someone who Yang Hong and his son asked to disguise as the rascal's underling to lure us in." Li Fei was sure of herself as she spoke.
"But… I don't think they knew Young Master's name." While she agreed with what Li Fei said, Ke'er was skeptical.
"We've mentioned the rascal's name to Senior Sister before… There were many Yin Peak disciples around a few times when Senior Sister mentioned his name," Li Fei speculated, "Perhaps they found out about rascal's name from some Yin Peak disciples."
"I guess that's what happened." Hearing what Li Fei said, Ke'er nodded while the doubts in her dissolved.
"To the two liege ladies! My master is Duan Ling Tian, and he has arrived at the Yin Yang Sect now. If you hear me, please come out of hiding and follow me to see my master."
"To the two liege ladies! My master is Duan Ling Tian, and he has arrived at the Yin Yang Sect now. If you hear me, please come out of hiding and follow me to see my master."
…
The voice resounded from faraway continuously. It was getting further and further away and eventually vanished from Li Fei and Ke'er's ears.
"Let's go!" Li Fei said to Ke'er, and they proceeded on their journey.
"Sister Fei'er, what's our plan after this? Do we take the swift boat crossing the Ruo Shui River to the Southern Outer Land to look for Young Master?" Ke'er glanced at Li Fei and asked.
"Although our cultivation base has entered Martial Monarch Stage, it's only on First Level Martial Monarch Stage… We'll definitely die if we encounter powerful pirates along the Ruo Shui River!" Li Fei said in all seriousness, "It's very risky for us to take the swift boat to cross the Ruo Shui River to the Southern Outer Land with our current cultivation base."
"So, what do we do next?" Ke'er asked, complying with her.
At the moment, they were not only living for themselves; they were also living for humanity.
Apart from that, they were living for their master and Senior Sister who were already dead!
Therefore, they did not dare to take the risk.
When they had followed their Senior Sister to the Yin Yang Sect back then, they managed to get there successfully because of a Fifth Level Martial Monarch Stage Yin Peak's elder who had followed them along the way.
They remembered the most powerful pirate that they had encountered along the way on the swift boat was on the Fourth Level Martial Monarch Stage. They encountered two pirates of the same level after that.
If they were to encounter a Fourth Level Martial Monarch pirate now, they would definitely be dead.
"We'll find a remote place to hide and cultivate after we get out," Li Fei's eyes lit up as she said slowly, "It was said that some Martial Emperor powerhouses in the Inner Land would recruit disciples and followers publicly three years later… When the time comes, we'll head to You Han Valley to participate in the test the Martial Emperor You Han issues. We'll become her disciple if we pass the test!"
"We'll get better cultivation resources if we cultivate under a Martial Emperor. Also, with the Martial Emperor's teachings, the rate of our abilities improving will skyrocket!"
"If we become the direct disciple of the Martial Emperor, all we have to do is to say the word to get the Martial Emperor to send her [1] people to kill Yang Hong!" Li Fei had a cold gleam flashing in her eyes when she mentioned Yang Hong.
"You Han Valley? Martial Emperor You Han?" Ke'er mumbled, "I think I've heard of this Martial Emperor You Han… Is she the Martial Emperor of You Han Valley in the far northern area of the Inner Land?"
"Yes, that's her." Li Fei nodded.
Ke'er's voice turned a little cold all of a sudden. "If one of us is fortunate enough to become a direct disciple of the Martial Emperor… Let's not get the Martial Emperor to send his people to kill Yang Hong, alright?"
"Hmm?" Li Fei was surprised and asked while frowning, "Why?"
"I want to kill him myself!" Ke'er's voice tightened as it was filled with a vengeance that came from her bones.
"I understand now." Li Fei nodded. "We must depend on our own strength to avenge Master and Senior Senior… They'll rest in peace if we do that."
As Li Fei and Ke'er continued their journey away from the Yin Yang Sect, Duan Ling Tian returned to Feng Tian Wu after putting away the Spatial Rings and the couple of Concept and Profundity Fragments that Yang Hong and his son had left behind above the top of Yang Peak of the Yin Yang Sect.
His attention was fixed on the three Yang Peak high management members immediately. He was glaring at them with the cold intention to kill.
"Sir! We've just found out about what Yang Hong did. Although we know about your two fiances, whatever we say didn't matter, so there was no way for us to stop Yang Hong from acting." One of the Vice Peak Masters of Yang Peak took the lead to speak to Duan Ling Tian as he looked at him.
"Yes, Sir! Our ability's lower than his whenever Yang Hong's around, so we could only follow his instructions… But I swear I've never done anything bad to your two fiances," the other Yang Peak's Vice Peak Master proceeded to speak.
Duan Ling Tian glanced at the both of them calmly and his eyes eventually locked onto the old man who had yet to say anything.
Through the experience recorded in the Rebirth Martial Emperor's memory, he could tell by a glance that the old man's ability was more potent than the other two. His ability might even be on par with Yang Hong.
"Would… Would you like to be the Sect Leader of the Yin Yang Sect?" The old man, who happened to be studying Duan Ling Tian, asked.
[1] Her instead of his because they only take female disciples in You Han Valley.
