Chapter 315: The Orthodox Strength

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

“I don’t think it’s a pity! If it’s indeed a superpower fairy weapon, though it can’t help me to advance my cultivation, then it’s still something worth celebrating!” Zhou Bao directly put it into the space dividing the two boundaries with his eyes squinting gradually. “About the fairy weapon, we can talk about it later. The most important thing, for now, is to find out who wants to kill me on earth. Ten Level Eight experts altogether set up a sword formation! It’s absolutely a deadly situation to a Level Seven expert!”

Thinking of wounds he had got in the sword formation, Zhou Bao bit his teeth tightly. An ordinary man surely could not gather so many Level Eight experts. Honestly, until now he could not figure out who has a strong power to despatch ten Level Eight experts and one Pure Yang Celestial Device.

Even those millennial families might not have such power. Probably it might be the Three Great Sects or Kunlun Mountain.

Right! Kunlun Mountain!

Most likely it is the Kunlun Mountain to do so!

Ten Level Eight experts and one Pure Yang Celestial Device! Only an influence reaching at the level like Tian Long Taoism or Kunlun Mountain might manage to do it. But, was it really the Kunlun Mountain?

Zhou Bao was still very suspicious. Kunlun Mountain didn’t have a good relationship with him. Besides, together with Wang She, he grabbed them a Pure Yang Celestial Device. But, did they really have such strength?

Zhou Bao showed his deep suspicion! After all, there were ten Level Eight experts!

If Kunlun Mountain did have a power as strong as this, they must do something in the war of conquering the Northern Yuan, let the Kunlun Master alone stay in Kunlun Mountain because of the threat from Tian Long Taoism.

That’s why Zhou Bao was so suspicious!

How about the Three Great Sects of the Jin?

Tian Long Taoism had no reason to set such a trap! Neither did the Sect of Flame! Anyway, as long as Prince Xiaoming functioned in the Sect of Flame, such a thing wouldn’t happen! Then Mingyi School might be the suspect. From the very beginning, Zhou Bao did not work well with the Mingyi School. However, did Mingyi School have the strength to despatch such a group of experts? If they did have, was it necessary to make such a serious situation in terms of the relationship between himself and the Mingyi School? It was hard to believe that Mingyi School would despatch such a power to attack him!

“So, who could it be? Who attached great importance to me?” Zhou Bao thought secretly, squinting his eyes gently.

“Buddy, it’s useless to think aimlessly!” Green Spirit said coldly.

“You’re right. I’d benefit nothing from this aimless thought. I’d better go home and have a check!” Zhou Bao was astonished and then turned into a gold streamer, flying directly to Yunzhou!

After he left for a long while, at the position where he stood, a bare head bumped out. His face showed that he was at young age. He gazed at the disappearance of Zhou Bao with a complex look and muttered twice bitterly!

“Zhou Bao, Yunzhou Zhoubao, what a tough guy! His cultivation and his fighting capability must be far beyond the Level Nine experts. That black flame was stronger than any of Internal Qi I knew. Maybe he has reached the so-called Genuine Soul Level. What on earth was Zhou Bao’s background? He should have a strong Internal Qi with such good quality. Even the Sect Leader won’t reach this level before he cultivates to Mysterious Realm. This news must be spread out and I need to inform all my fellows and ask them to stop all the actions aiming to Zhou Bao. Otherwise, they’ll lose!” The bare head man thought. He made a decision at last with a strange and unsteady expression. Burying his head in the soil, and he disappeared.

As Zhou Bao expected, when he came back to Zhou Mansion in Qingyang Market in a hurry, his father was in good health and lived very well. Because of Zhou Bao’s back, the Zhou Mansion got themselves into a mess. Looking at Zhou Bao who was absent, brought great benefits to the whole family, Old Zhou apparently felt very excited. Since Zhou Bao was always in a rush, he didn’t talk too much with Old Zhou except several simple greetings. He also asked whether something abnormal happened at home. All the feedbacks from Old Zhou seemed very normal. As to that letter-delivery guy, after Zhou Bao’s detailed description, someone finally recalled. He was a far-related relative of the Zhou’s. He came to the Zhou’s for help. But when the people went to his house they found no one. Zhou Bao was in a terrible mood and he refused all his families invitation and went back to his territory immediately.

Obviously, it must be a plot specifically to Zhou Bao, and the plotter was very cautious. Before his success, he neither startle anyone nor leave any trace.

The only clue now was the letter-delivery guy. That’s why Zhou Bao went back rapidly. He was afraid that the guy might be killed by someone.

Unfortunately, though he had already made his best, he still faced a corpse lying before him when he arrived at his territory.

“He didn’t come around since he was fainting. When the person who brought the meal came, his body was found stiffened. But strangely, he seemed not to be poisoned.” Jiang Xiao wore an awkward expression. He just thought that the guy was too tired to die. However, Zhou Bao came back hurriedly at dawn time, which made him realize that there was something wrong. As expected, upon Zhou Bao’s arrival, he went to see that guy.

“Not to be poisoned? Then what’s the reason?” With a dark look, Zhou Bao spread a strong killing intent fulfilling the whole room.

“It was an injury! He was attacked by a kind of soft palm power which terribly injured his internal organs. The killer controlled his power so that that guy wouldn’t die last night. And it’s not easy to perceive before this wound showed. Considering his exhaustion when he arrived, the abnormal body completely covered with wounds. Therefore, nobody could find it.”

The man who spoke was Nan Haiping, one of the masters of martial arts from Tian Long Taoism, came together with Wang She. He was in his forties with a long beard and wore an elegant look.

“A soft palm power!” Zhou Bao nodded to Nan Haiping without any comments. As the man died, there were no clues anymore. Of course, Zhou Bao wasn’t satisfied with this situation. “After I left, nothing unusual happened?!”

“No!” Jiang Xiao shook his head without any hesitation. “There’s not enough time for something to happen since you only left for a half day. It doesn’t even take you one whole night!” He thought secretly.

“You’re back now, surely nothing happened. But if you came back one or two or three days later, maybe something will happen!” Wang She’s voice came from the outside.

“Chief!” Zhou Bao nodded slightly. “You’ve already known it?”

“I can easily tell by your appearance! You look so terrible. You must be attacked!” Wang She said.

“So, in your opinion, who did it?”

“Since you stepped into this martial world, you’ve annoyed a few guys. However, anyone who dares to attack you isn’t that simple!” Wang She swayed his cyan fan and his eyes ran down around. A strong pressure was spread and made the people around all in pale, including Jiang Xiao and several masters of martial arts. Then, they all left the hall, lowering their heads. After a while, only Wang She and Zhou Bao were in the hall.

“It’s not simple! Surely I know he’s not simple. After all, he should lay out such a murder plot to me! If I hadn’t entered the Azure Secret Area and got some benefits, I might have lose my life in their hands!”

“Really? Is that serious?” Wang She said, lifting his eyebrows. “So who on earth are they? They should dare to do such a thing!”

“Not only one attacker! There are ten of them!” Zhou Bao shook his head and smiled bitterly. Then he detailedly described his experience after his leaving.

“What? Nine Level Eight experts and one red gourd-shaped Pure Yang Celestial Device? They laid out the Sumeru Sword Formation! And you were also attacked by a man in black using the hollow travel!”

Wang She opened his eyes widely. According to Zhou Bao’s appearance when he came back, he supposed that Zhou Bao suffered an assassination but he had never expected it would be so dangerous!

After clearly hearing Zhou Bao’s description, Wang She looked very depressed all of a sudden. Anyway, Zhou Bao was protected by Tian Long Taoism, which was confirmed. And he, the Chief of Tian Long Taoism, also showed his support to the whole marital world. However, it was unexpected that someone should set a big trap at this time. It was a deadlock aiming Zhou Bao killing to death. This plotter did not take Tian Long Taoism seriously at all.

“Don’t worry. I will investigate it thoroughly! Though the letter-delivery guy is dead, there are very few people who can set up such a murder plot. And, with your clues, I don’t think they won’t expose themselves!”

“They can surely expose themselves finally! Treating me like this, whoever they are, I won’t let them go easily!” Zhou Bao clenched his fists tightly and shouted.

Surely, he would not let them go! This plot was apparently to kill Zhou Bao. If Zhou Bao had not cultivated better with much stronger combat capability far beyond the Level Nine masters recently, now he would have been a corpse. Otherwise, at least he would be seriously wounded because of being chased by others!

Zhou Bao would not swallow his anger secretly in any way!

“Actually, it won’t be difficult to infer! Looking around, there are only a few influences owning such power. We could exclude one by one!” Wang She smiled sinisterly.

“You seemed to have some clues!” Glancing at Wang She, Zhou Bao’s look changed.

“I didn’t have any idea before. But after thinking carefully, I did get some clues!” Wang She grinned and flashed a weird smile. “Maybe, someone can’t control himself anymore! Hehe. Nine Level Eight experts and one sacrifice to the Dark Hall. It’s indeed a death plot which was very threatening to me before entering the Level Nine. Don’t do it or do it to the best without any chance left to the enemies. It’s the style of the eldest of Yan!”

“The eldest of Yan?” Zhou Bao stunned a bit, and then, there was a bright light in his eyes. “You mean the Jin Emperor?”

“Yes! It’s him! He might sense that you’d be a huge threat to him, so he planned to kill you before you get matured. He never expected that your power has grown to a high level. As the saying goes, he goes for a wool and come back shorn!”

“Are you sure it’s him?!” Zhou Bao’s face got blue.

“I’m basically sure!” Wang She thought again. “Only the royalty Yan of Jin has the ability to wield such a strong power to attack you! I have no idea about the nine Level Eight experts, but I heard about the assassin in black that had a Level Eight cultivation. It’s said that the royalty of Jin raised a group of experts called Dark Hall. This Dark Hall contributed a lot to the foundation of Jin. Later, they had been doing some shame in the dark for the royalty!”

“Why does he want to kill me?!”

“As I said, it means that the Jin Emperor has already considered you as a threat to him. Coping a guy with potential threat, he was never merciful and would send out all his influences. He has only one purpose: security!”

“I didn’t think that he should pay great attention to me!”

Zhou Bao said with a bitter smile.

“Pitifully! He still underestimated you at last!”

“Hum! Thanks to my good luck again! If I hadn’t get any breakthrough in the Azure Secret Area, I might surely have already been killed by him this time!” Zhou Bao replied angrily.

“All right! Don’t bother yourself too much! Though he is the noblest in the world now, considering your power and cultivation, you don’t need to fear him. Moreover, the power you showed him this time is out of his expectation. Through this failure, he doesn’t have any way to inspect your bottom line. Thinking about his character, his following action will be comforting you. And maybe he’ll even give you more benefits!”

“Benefits? Hum! Do I care about his benefits? I surely will pay him back for his ‘hospitality’!”

“It’s not a good idea to fight back apparently. Though your ability is good enough, standing against with the royalty of Jin wasn’t a wise choice. If I’m not mistaken, the Jin Emperor now, together with some strong influences, was playing a big game. Before, you were nobody, not even a chess piece. But now, because of your sudden rise, you have the value of being a chess piece. However, your actions had already gone out of their control before they have decided where to position you. That’s why he wants to remove you from their game, but they failed. To stabilize this game, he’ll stabilize you first by all means!”

“But how?!”

“They don’t expect you to help them but at least not to disturb them by giving you some benefits!”

“What if I have made my mind to mess them up?”

“Then you must keep your actions dark and kick them out forever at the key time. In this way, perhaps you may also get unexpected benefits!”

“Unexpected benefits?!”

“Your eyes, Fiery Eyes, are the eyes of taboo. Buddy, do you really think you can relax since your power have reached this level? I can assure you that once you reveal your secret, you will be hunted by at least 70% experts above Level Nine in this world!”

“Is that serious?!” Zhou Bao got shocked. The power of Fiery Eyes was far beyond his imagination. Therefore, the more power he had, the more curious he was to this pair of fantastical eyes. And the more powerful strength he felt, the more scared he was to the person who once destroyed the Fiery Eyes bloodline with complete power!

Since the Fiery Eyes bloodline had such powerful strength, the influence who could destroy the whole clan might have the power beyond imagination!

Hence, as he grew stronger, he hid the power of Fiery Eyes deeper. At usual time, there was no need to use this power. So, nobody knew that he had this magic bloodline except Wang She.

Since Wang She mentioned this again in a depressed tone, Zhou Bao had to pay attention to it.

“How much do you know about the Fiery Eyes on earth?”

“I don’t know much about it, either! But I know that this power scares the orthodox strength very much!”

“Orthodox strength?!” Zhou Bao was puzzled. “What does it mean?”

“The royalty power was only one of them. The powers hiding beyond the royalty also includes the Mingyi School. They’re strong influences apparently which control the whole world publicly and secretly for 50,000 years. They are beyond your imagination! They seem to scatter everywhere. However, once they unite, they could break out great power. As I know, in this world, only the Immortal Palace can fight them back. While the Immortal Palace seemingly also fears this power and tries to avoid any conflict with it. That’s why it exists in a state of half-hide.”

“Even the Immortal Palace need to hide?” Zhou Bao shocked.

“Right. In the past 50,000 years, the Immortal Palace has managed to avoid the elan of the Orthodax strength!”
