War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

2742 The Thousand Spiders Celestial Sec

“Master Pei?”There were two people sitting at a stone table inside a pavilion in the fourth prince’s residence. When they heard the old man’s report, the two people instantly looked at each other with widened eyes.

When Long Xiang Yun, the fourth prince, returned to his senses, he looked at the old man and asked in a deep voice, “Are you sure they went to meet Master Pei?”

“Your Highness, the Fourth Prince, y-you know Master Pei is an extremely strong Celestial Duke... I... I didn’t dare to get too close to Master Pei’s mansion,” the old man said with a wry smile. A Celestial Duke would easily detect his presence if he had gotten any closer. If he was discovered, it was very likely that he would be crippled if not killed if the Celestial Duke decided not to show any mercy.

“Okay. You may leave.” Long Xiang Yun waved his hand, dismissing the old man.

If Duan Ling Tian was here, he would definitely recognize the old man who had just left was the same old man who had accompanied Long Xiang Yun and Zhou Shu Dong to meet him at the Fleeting Time Inn. Similar to the old man serving Long Qing Yun, the seventh prince, this old man was also a heaven-rank Overarching Golden Celestial who was assigned by the Emperor of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom to guard Long Xiang Yun.

“Fourth brother, it seems like thirteenth brother is making his move now... Not only does he have a close relationship with the disciple of a powerful sect outside the Wasteland, but he also took that person to meet Master Pei. What’s he trying to do?” The other person sitting with Long Xiang Yun was Long Qing Yun, the seventh prince. When he spoke, a hint of killing intent flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Long Xiang Yun said, “I don’t think thirteenth brother would dare to bring another person to meet Master Pei on his own accord. This can only mean that Master Pei wants to meet that person.” The expression on his face was sour.

Long Qing Yun said in a deep voice, “Back then, if it weren’t for Master Pei, he would’ve died! He wouldn’t have been able to strut around in front of us now!”

“Don’t talk about the things that happened in the past. That incident had upset father... He has made it clear that if we try to kill thirteenth brother again, neither of us will inherit the throne...” Long Xiang Yun said.

“I guess as much as father suspects thirteenth brother for not being his biological child, it goes the other way as well. Fortunately, father can’t be 100% certain that thirteenth brother is his child. Otherwise, we won’t stand a chance against him,” Long Qing Yun said, admitting that he was inferior to Long Fei Yun in every aspect.

Long Xiang Yun and Long Qing Yun had sent someone to assassinate Long Fei Yun. When the emperor learned about the incident, both of them had been reprimanded. When the emperor went to visit the person who had saved Long Fei Yun, he confirmed that the person was a Celestial Duke. He also confirmed that the Celestial Duke had no intention of interfering with the throne inheritance of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom. Both Long Xiang Yun and Long Qing Yun learned about this from their father.

“So what if thirteenth brother and that person went to see Master Pei? Master Pei has already made it clear that he would not interfere in the matter regarding the throne inheritance in the kingdom. A strong Celestial Duke like him wouldn’t go back on his words,” Long Xiang Yun said, “Even if he does, he still has to contend with the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect. So what if he’s a strong Celestial Duke? Is he an opponent of the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland? If he recklessly interferes with the affairs of the kingdom, he would be hunted by the three Celestial Sects for breaking the rule they had laid down.”

Long Qing Yun chimed in with a snort, “You’re right. In my opinion, the reason he said he’s not going to interfere in the affairs of our kingdom is due to his fear of the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect, the Tai Yi Celestial Sect, and the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect.”

Long Xiang Yun continued to say, “That’s obvious. How could he be afraid of our kingdom otherwise?”

All of a sudden, Long Qing Yun asked, “I heard the fourth miss of the Zhou clan has gone to the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect to look for the third miss of the Zhou clan?”

“Yes.” Long Xiang Yun was not surprised that Long Qing Yun knew about this. After all, his cousin liked to act recklessly and ostentatiously that it was only normal for everyone to find out about her every movement.

Long Qing Yun narrowed his eyes and said with a slight smile, “It shouldn’t be difficult for the third miss of the Zhou clan to investigate the background of that young man with the surname Duan.”

“We’ll find out in a while,” Long Xiang Yun said calmly. Although he sounded indifferent, his eyes betrayed the urgency he felt.

...

Time passed by quietly. In just a blink of an eye, half a year had passed.

The Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect, one of the Three Major Celestial Sects of the Wasteland, controlled one of the only three primitive Celestial Stone ores in the Wasteland.

Although the three primitive Celestial Stone ores in the Wasteland were small ores, they were far superior compared to ordinary Celestial Stone ores. No matter how large an ordinary Celestial Stone ore was, it could not compare to primitive Celestial Stone ores.

The Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect was located near the primitive Celestial Stone ore they controlled. For this reason, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the sect was extremely good.

The Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy in the area where the high-ranking officials and core disciples resided was extremely rich.

In the training area of a certain disciple’s courtyard that was located halfway up a mountain, a beautiful figure could be seen standing next to a rock in the courtyard. She was holding a Communication Celestial Talisman in her hand. As the Communication Celestial Talisman disappeared, all the information in the talisman appeared in her mind...

“It’s him!” A peculiar expression could be seen on the woman’s face.

At this moment, another beautiful figure appeared from the distance and approached the woman standing next to the rock. She asked excitedly, “Third sister, did you receive any news?” If Duan Ling Tian were here, he would be able to recognize this woman. She was Zhou Shu Dong, the fourth miss of the Zhou clan, who wanted to make him her boy toy.

Based on Zhou Shu Dong’s words, it was not difficult to figure out the identity of the woman standing next to the rock. She was Zhou Shu Qiu, the third miss of the Zhou clan. Not only that, but she was also the last disciple of the former Sect Leader of the Thousand Spiders Celestial Sect and the junior sister of the current sect leader!

Although they were sisters, Zhou Shu Qiu was far superior to Zhou Shu Dong in every aspect, including appearance and figure. Most importantly, Zhou Shu Qiu’s temperament was far better than Zhou Shu Dong. In front of Zhou Shu Qiu, Zhou Shu Dong was like an ugly maid.

Zhou Shu Qiu looked at Zhou Shu Dong’s excited expression and said in a deep voice, “Dong’er, don’t even think about seeking revenge from him or offend him... Otherwise, don’t blame me for not avenging you if he kills you...”

Upon hearing Zhou Shu Qiu’s words, colors drained from Zhou Shu Dong’s face. She asked, unwilling to give up, “Third sister... I-Is he really that powerful?”

“I don’t want to repeat myself,” Zhou Shu Qiu said. Thinking that she was being too harsh on her sister, she looked at the dejected expression on her sister’s face and said, “Dong’er, you’re at fault for the conflict between both of you. He spared your life because he’s merciful. Don’t make an enemy out of him in the future.”

“I understand, third sister,” Zhou Shu Dong hurriedly responded. She had also made up her mind not to seek revenge from the purple-clad young man whom she hated.

“Go back to your room... I’ll bring you back home in two days,” Zhou Shu Qiu said.

Zhou Shu Dong nodded and obediently returned to her room, listening to her sister’s instructions.

“What a coincidence... He’s actually in the capital of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom.” After Zhou Shu Dong left, Zhou Shu Qiu shook her head. Her eyes brightened as a curious expression appeared on her face. “He took advantage of Bing’er, and yet, Bing’er still asked me to keep an eye on him and protect him. I really want to see what kind of a man he is. In any case, I have to say, Bing’er’s man is quite strong. Although the Celestial Duke from the Compassionate Celestial Traveler Sect found him, he still managed to escape. I wonder where he got his Shadow Void Escaping Talisman that’s inscribed by a Celestial King from.”

A hint of teasing appeared in her beautiful eyes as she murmured to herself, “If Bing’er finds out that another woman is following him around, I wonder if she’ll feel jealous?”

Based on Zhou Shu Qiu’s words, it was clear that she knew Murong Bing. Moreover, their relationship seemed profound. Apart from that, she seemed to have learned about Duan Ling Tian. She found out about what happened during the Martial Competition of the Sixteen Counties in King Qin’s Mansion of the Cloudy Rock Celestial Kingdom.

“Fortunately, he didn’t kill Dong’er. Otherwise, even if Bing’er asked me to protect him, I still wouldn’t let him off the hook!” A hint of contempt flashed in her eyes.

Meanwhile, Zhou Shu Dong who returned to her room was unaware that the purple-clad young man whom she hated did not come from an impressive background outside the Wasteland. Her sister had only told her not to provoke him due to a request made by her sister’s friend.

The world was, indeed, quite small!
