Chapter 80: The Mole In The Xia Family

In Baishan City, in the secret room of the City Lord’s mansion, the City Lord knelt before the portrait and wept with joy.

“Ancestor, we, the people of the South Continent, finally have a Virtual Realm master among us. There is hope. The people of Zhongzhou used to persecute us. But now, we will make them pay! I will try my best to find his whereabouts. The longer he stays hidden, the safer it will be for us!”

After Qiu Shuzhen returned from the cavern, he handed over his authority to the other elders and delegated some minor matters to his disciples.

Then, he headed into retreat.

The entire Honghai Sacred Ground was stunned.

The Sectmaster chose to head into retreat at a critical moment like this.

Was he trying to escape?

Was he scared?

“What does he mean by this? Is he giving up on the Sacred Ground?”

The other elders didn’t understand what the Qiu Family was trying to do.

When the people of the South Continent were starting to show resistance, all Qiu Shuzhen did was run away.

Was he trying to leave the Sacred Ground in chaos?

“If the Sacred Ground is in chaos, how will it benefit the Qiu Family?” The elders were puzzled.

“It’s a conspiracy!”

In the long and narrow cave, Qiu Shuzhen opened the altar and the blue light flickered twice, revealing the old man with white eyebrows inside.

“Senior, I have found out that the Virtual Realm master is the ancestor of the Xia Family,” Qiu Shuzhen said respectfully.

In the past few days, he had repeatedly confirmed this with someone in the Xia Family.

The other party was sure that the Virtual Realm master was an ancestor of the Xia Family.

“Impossible! That guy from the Xia Family can’t possibly reach the Virtual Realm.” The old man with white eyebrows narrowed his eyes.

He wasn’t satisfied with Qiu Shuzhen’s answer.

Qiu Shuzhen was obviously trying to bluff him.

“Senior, he managed to kill the three half-step Virtual Realm masters and hundreds of other disciples from the Sacred Ground. Bac then, the people in the Xia Family watched as their ancestor attacked us.”

“Huh? But his soul was badly injured by me. Yet it is also impossible for the people of the South Continent to reach the Virtual Realm,” The old man with white eyebrows in the blue light frowned and snorted.

He obviously didn’t believe Qiu Shuzhen.

“Senior, this is all the Qiu Family can do for now.”

“In that so? Can’t your ancestor, Honghai, destroy him? Didn’t he just reach the Virtual Realm?”

“Senior, our ancestor is in retreat!”

“Okay, that’s enough. How long can he stay in retreat? After he destroys this South Continent master of the Virtual Realm, I will just give him a Heavenly Pill.”

“Senior, isn’t a Heavenly Pill too little?” Qiu Shuzhen asked cautiously.

“Don’t worry. There have been some changes in the South Continent lately. I will throw in a well of prenatal qi as well.”

The blue light disappeared.

Somewhere else in the cave, there were nine shiny, golden Dragon Pillars.

In the center, there was a golden lotus with twenty-four leaves, surrounded by mist.

Twenty-four golden dragons flew around in the mist.

Sitting cross-legged in the center of the golden lotus was the old man with white eyebrows.

He was staring sharply at two of the golden lotus’s leaves, which had wilted.

“Who is disrupting my cultivation channels?”

He had plotted for tens of thousands of years and used countless resources to provoke various disputes.

He had even planted the demon in the South Continent.

After destroying the South Continent, he seized the opportunity to plunder South Continent’s twelve cultivation channels to help him.

Now, two cultivation channels had been affected.

The other four cultivation channels in the South Continent was also weakening and the lotus leaves were gradually turning gray.

He was just about to break through, but something like this had to happen.

“The ancestor of the Xia Family can’t possibly be alive! Damn this Qiu Family. They always lie to me.”

The old man with white eyebrows jumped off the lotus.

After a while, his skin began to dry up and the wrinkles on the face quickly intensified and deepened.

“Am I really going to stay here and wait for death?”

If he didn’t break through, he would just die here.

Now that his cultivation was affected, the probability of breaking through was not high.

“I haven’t been out for so many years. My reputation in Zhongzhou is not what it used to be.” The old man with white eyebrows sighed.

His body was aging too fast, so he had to jump on the lotus again.

After Qiu Shuzhen divided up the power, several elders in the Sacred Ground joined forces and began to attack the other small families around them.

There were quarrels in the main hall of the Sacred Ground every day.

Elder Gongshan could not restrain other elders at all, let alone the other disciples.

The Sacred Ground was in a mess.

Even the cities who depended on the Honghai Sacred Ground was in a mess.

There were masters fighting every day.

The Wu Ma and Baizu Families were thoroughly destroyed.

The attitudes of the people in the major cities towards the people of the South Continent had also changed suddenly.

Many people of Zhongzhou didn’t dare to take action against the people of the South Continent in broad daylight.

In Blood City and Baishan City, the oppression of the South Continent people was also reduced.

In a mine, tens of thousands of South Continent miners breathed a sigh of relief.

Their daily mining time was reduced by an hour and they were properly fed.

Before that, they were often starving and exhausted.

Now, they wouldn’t die so easily.

“I heard that there is a Virtual Realm master from the South Continent.”

The miners in the mine had no access to the news outside.

It wasn’t until the managers and mine owners changed their attitudes toward them and new people enter the mine did the miners hear about the news.

“That’s great! I finally have some hope! In my next life, I won’t have to live as a slave.”

“Don’t think so far! Even if we aren’t treated so badly, we can’t really change our destiny!”

Crack!

The whip flicked!

Another streak of blood appeared on the miner who had been talking.

The miners turned around and glared at the supervisor.

“What are you talking about? Work! What about the Virtual Realm master from the South Continent? So what if there is a Virtual Realm master from the South Continent? There are ten Virtual Realm masters in Zhongzhou, many of them who have been in the Virtual Realm for several years already.”

“You…”

“If you don’t work, there will be no dinner for you tonight! Why are you talking about the Virtual Realm? Who knows if they’ll kill us someday.” The supervisor snorted arrogantly and left.

Outside Bailing Valley, Mu Qingfeng dressed up as a South Continent native who was supportive of the Xia Family.

At this time, most of the South Continent people who supported the Xia family had already left Muguang Mountain.

Many of them returned to Zhongzhou and resumed their lives.

Pretending to be lost, he circled around Muguang Mountain and in the vicinity of Bailing Valley.

A few days later, he finally met a member of the Xia Family and talked to him briefly.

The youth from the Xia Family was very innocent and the two of them quickly became friends.

Mu Qingfeng could tell that this young man was not deeply involved with the outside world and had a ordinary cultivation level.

He was only able to come out and practice because the elite disciples of the Xia Family were all killed in the fight with the Sacred Ground.

Otherwise, the Xia Family would not have chosen to train someone like him either.

The two of them spent a couple of days together and eventually, this young man brought Mu Qingfeng to Bailing Valley.

After living in the valley for half a month, Mu Qingfeng quickly became noticed by the Xia Family’s elders.

At night, Mu Qingfeng sneaked into Elder Xia’s room.

As soon as he was about to speak, the Great Elder grabbed him.

“The bastard from the Honghai Sacred Ground?”

“Elder, I have something to report,” Mu Qingfeng quickly took out the Mu Family’s jade plate.

An hour later, in the secret room of the Great Elder…

“No wonder our Xia Family suffered such a heavy loss this time. It turns out that is a mole. Who could the mole be?”

“Grandpa said that the elder of the Sacred Ground also didn’t know who it was.” Mu Qingfeng said truthfully.

“I also find it strange. How did they know that we are secretly transporting medicinal items? And how did they know the whereabouts of our disciples and the location of Bailing Valley?” The elder frowned.

The demise of the Hong Family had been so sudden.

He had to find this mole.

“I have to find my ancestors.”
