Chapter 1813 - 1805: Rumors
At this moment.
Wenren Guqing braced herself and stood before Lin Tian, bowing deeply.
The young man they encountered on the road turned out to be someone who could effortlessly slay a Golden Core cultivator!
Now, Wenren Guqing could understand why Muu Xinrui was rescued so easily.
Previously, their various actions and words towards Lin Tian were indeed quite disrespectful!
Seeing Lin Tian’s terrifying strength now, Wenren Guqing felt chilled to the bone!
Anxiety and uneasiness were written all over her face.
Although the young man they met along the way... this senior had remained silent all the while.
The more she thought about it, the more fear gripped Wenren Guqing’s heart!
Meanwhile, Li Xiaoshuang and several others saw that Wu Chengxuan and the others had vanished without a trace, and their master bowed deeply. They were already too dumbfounded to react.
"Senior..."
Seeing that Lin Tian hadn’t spoken for a long time, Wenren Guqing respectfully called out again, bowing even deeper.
Li Xiaoshuang and others quickly reacted, hurriedly stepping forward and nervously saluting.
"I’m just here to get what I want!"
Looking at Wenren Guqing in a state of unease, Lin Tian shook his head and said.
Whoosh~
Wenren Guqing immediately comprehended, secretly letting out a long breath.
What she feared most was that such a Nascent Soul old monster would take lives with a mere disagreement!
A moment ago, she personally witnessed Wu Chengxuan and others being killed, disappearing without a trace, which strained her nerves.
"The Bali Holy Sect, is it a major force from the South Seas? They came all the way to our North Continent; it shouldn’t be as simple as wanting to capture some mother body, right?"
Lin Tian glanced at Dong Meengchen and Muu Xinrui, then asked Wenren Guqing.
"Senior..."
Wenren Guqing cupped her hands in salute before speaking.
But Lin Tian waved his hand and said, "Just call me Mr. Lin!"
"Uh... yes!"
Wenren Guqing slightly paused, quickly replied, "Mr. Lin... the Bali Holy Sect is indeed a force from the South Seas! They are considered top-tier major sects and very powerful! At the same time, they are relatively wicked sects over there, rarely showing up! This time, coming to the North Continent, they even cooperated with the Nine Immortals Mountain and Tanlang Peak, extending their claws into my Wuli Mountain, that’s truly despicable!"
"As for their purpose in coming, I don’t think capturing a mother body for their Saint Heir is that simple!"
Hearing this, Lin Tian nodded slightly, continuing, "Does this mother body greatly enhance cultivation effects?"
"Mr. Lin, this matter is only something I’ve heard! But it’s said that using the Bali Holy Sect’s magic to enlighten a suitable Yin Yuan Body has a terrifying effect on their Saint Heir’s cultivation!"
Wenren Guqing hesitated a bit, then explained to Lin Tian: "But I speculate that the Bali Holy Sect came to my North Continent not just for a mere mother body! After all, it could be found elsewhere too, why come to the North Continent? Capturing people to search for the mother body might just be incidental! They could be after some treasure map!"
"Treasure map?"
Lin Tian squinted his eyes, speaking coldly: "Do you know more specifics?"
Wenren Guqing smiled bitterly, shaking her head: "Specifically, I don’t know! But I heard it’s related to some ancient ruins in the South Sea, it should be a treasure map from that place..."
Treasure map?
Could it be... the title deed to Yale Brown Port?
That thing is indeed related to the South Sea ruins!
Also!
Previously, the Luuo Family suddenly disappeared, also because they got hold of that title deed contract!
Lin Tian’s expression was solemn, inwardly fairly certain that the Bali Holy Sect’s people must have come for that thing.
However.
Regarding the Luuo Family’s disappearance, whether related to the Bali Holy Sect or not, he could only set it aside for now.
Now, Lin Tian was quite interested in the Miyan Mountain that Wenren Guqing mentioned earlier.
"You’ve been to Miyan Mountain? You should know how to get there, right?"
Lin Tian stroked his chin, finally asking Wenren Guqing again.
"Mr. Lin doesn’t know Miyan Mountain?"
Wenren Guqing’s beautiful eyes widened, showing some surprise.
But she quickly reacted, without waiting for Lin Tian’s response, hurriedly said: "I’ve been to Miyan Mountain! Although only the outskirts, but I still know how to get there! Yet, that Miyan Mountain is quite special, usually in the deep sea fog, impossible to find! Only during the middle of each month does it appear in the foggy ghost realm on the sea surface east of our East Mountain Province, for three days every time! Either leave quickly or continue staying inside!"
"And the last time it appeared, several days have already passed, meaning Miyan Mountain has disappeared again! We can only go next month’s middle!"
Next month’s middle?
Well, I happen to need to stay in Mizhou City for a while too!
Lin Tian pondered, then nodded: "At that time, may I trouble Master Wenren to guide us? Is that okay?"
"Ah... Of course it’s okay! It’s an honor for me to guide Mr. Lin!"
Wenren Guqing, after a slight pause, immediately showed great joy.
Being able to associate with a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator was something she greatly desired!
She was even eager to owe a favor!
No matter if it was her or any other force, they would never refuse such a good opportunity!
If merely guiding could win the favor of a Nascent Soul old monster, it was totally worth it!
"When the time is near, you can come to Mizhou City to find me. Here’s my contact information!"
Lin Tian, without hesitation, gave his contact information to Wenren Guqing.
She noted down the phone number but hesitated again, saying to Lin Tian: "Mr. Lin, the Nine Immortals Mountain and the Bali Holy Sect are not simple, you should be cautious! Although those present are dead and the news won’t spread, with such major sects, they’ll find out sooner or later!"
"No worries!"
Lin Tian waved his hand, appearing indifferent.
He never paid any attention to the Nine Immortals Mountain or the Bali Holy Sect.
Then, he pointed at Dong Meengchen, saying to Wenren Guqing: "She has some cultivation potential! If Master Wenren doesn’t mind, why not accept her as a disciple? Now at this point, returning to ordinary life would be difficult for her, why not cultivate with your sect instead?"
"Of course, that’s not a problem!"
Wenren Guqing’s beautiful eyes lit up, agreeing directly.
She knew that Dong Meengchen was accompanying Lin Tian.
No matter their relationship, at least it added another layer.
Even if Dong Meengchen lacked cultivation talent, she’d still accept her as a disciple without hesitation!
This was an important connection to a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator!
"Thank you, Mr. Lin!"
Dong Meengchen’s beautiful eyes widened in surprise, then joyfully thanked Lin Tian repeatedly.
She was no longer the naive cultivation novice she once was; being captured by Wu Chengxuan, enlightened by the Divine Mother, then rescued by Lin Tian, she was already stunned by these incredible methods, and she too aspired to one day possess power like Lin Tian’s.
"Work hard yourself!"
Lin Tian nodded to Dong Meengchen, advised her, then bid farewell to Wenren Guqing and others, leaving Tianma Lake in a hurry.
However.
Just after leaving Tianma Lake, about to start navigation towards Jiao Zhou City, Bu Xuan’s call came.
"Captain, there’s been a situation here, I haven’t been able to get into the Jiao Zhou Branch yet!"
Bu Xuan’s voice was filled with helplessness, urgently saying: "Where are you? Some pretty bad news emerged here, folks in the Jiao Zhou Bay area are feeling panicked and there are rumors!"
"What’s going on? City-wide panic?"
Lin Tian was already on the move to Jiao Zhou City, surprised by Bu Xuan’s words.
In broad daylight, panic occurs?
That’s rather unusual.
"Captain, it’s not that serious, just some information among family forces, most people have no idea!"
Bu Xuan quickly replied: "Previously, the team leader asked you to check out the Jiao Zhou Branch as they received early news! Apparently, a thousand-year-old zombie has appeared here! Not sure if it’s true or exaggerated!"
