Conspiracy

“What is the ‘Sky Wolf Seven Evil Spirits Smoke’? The face is about to catch up to us!”

Fang Han laid on the Crane Fairy’s back, his eyes peeking out from amid the feathers. He realized that the hideous face made of black smoke had chased them, its mouth open, showing its packed together teeth. Even with the wind, a devilish laughing sound could be heard.

In the sky, the wind’s powerful current would be able to disperse people, even more so smoke.

However, this smoke didn’t disperse, as if it were actually a devil’s head, shocking Fang Han.

Although Fang Han had a lot of knowledge for a servant that was not a retainer, he had never seen such a strange and sinister thing, causing his heart to sway and beat in his throat.

“The ‘Sky Wolf Seven Evil Spirits Smoke’ is a kind of poisonous smoke that has been refined into a magic treasure, a ling’qi! It is very powerful, and is only given to excellent inner court disciples of the Yao’shen School. If this smoke engulfs us, we will be melted into blood. This kind of poison smoke can only be restrained by the Yu’hua School’s ‘Rainbow Green True Qi Talisman.’ Unfortunately, only the most prominent inner court disciples are able to have one.”

As the Crane Fairy flew between the clouds, the face of smoke behind them kept chasing, and had now gotten within one hundred li of them.

“What is the Yao’shen School?”

Fang Han observed the Crane Fairy’s speed, and upon realizing that the crane was faster than the face of smoke, his heart became calm, and began asking questions.

“The Yao’shen School is a large sect which follows the Demon Path. Compared to the Yu’hua school, its status is about the same. Long ago, their founder, the ‘Demon G.o.d,’ trained to the Divine Realm, and then the Longevity Realm. Upon breaking into the Longevity Realm, his flesh and blood changed, giving him a human form, and causing his divine power to become immeasurable. He became on par with the Devil Emperor, the existence called the ‘Demon G.o.d’!” shouted the Fairy Crane. Still flying for their lives, “These couple years, the Demon path, Devil path, and Immortal Path have had no problems between them. Based on logic, there should be no way for the people of the Yao’shen School to have appeared in the area surrounding Yu’hua Immortal Mountain.”

[TL: So I know I didn’t translate Yao and Mo last chapter, but they are distinct now. Schools will remain in pinyin because Yu’hua is stupid when translated and I am too lazy to go change the other chapters. :P]

Some animals, because of powerful innate bodies and occasionally eating the immortal gra.s.s found amid the mountains have managed to strengthen their flesh to the point where they can develop their mind and comprehend divine secrets. These animals are called ‘Demons’!

In the end, human flesh was still weaker than the flesh of certain animals.

Also, a very minimal amount of Demons can break through the Divine Realm, and enter the Longevity Realm. Upon breaking into the Longevity Realm, they can freely change their flesh, and undergo blood rebirth to change into a human.

Such a Demon truly comprehended the vast Divine secrets, causing their magic power to be immeasurable. The sect founded by it would become on par with the one founded by the Immortal Path leader.

“O, O, O, O, O, O, O.”

At this time, they were suddenly faced with danger.

That hideous face of smoke let out a sharp sound, and suddenly became faster, furiously flying over.

“Not good! We are going to die!”

Like a young girl, the Crane Fairy shouted, its body shivering.

Fang Han’s eyesight went black, an extremely foul smell a.s.sailing his nose and then entering his body’s organs, a very strong poison causing him to feel like he was melting.

In front of his eyes, the hideous face of smoke appeared, and swallowed them in a bite.

I’ve been poisoned and my about is about to melt into blood! Fang Han only had that thought in his mind.

However, heat suddenly came from his stomach, as if the poison from the ‘Sky Wolf Seven Evil Spirits Smoke’ had stimulated the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet.’ The pellet began to rotate, a fragrant aroma beginning to permeate the air, immediately causing the toxic smoke to disperse.

Afterwards, he felt the ‘Map of the Hidden Yellow Dragon Spring’ faintly move in his clothes, and let out a strong vortex with huge suction power.

“Zi zi, zi zi zi.” The black smoke was completely encapsulated and suddenly disappeared into the map.

The sky became clear, the foul smells completely disappearing. Crane Fairy seemed to have recovered its ability to move, suddenly opening its wings and once again flying towards the Yu’hua Immortal Mountain.

“What happened? Just now we clearly were about to die. Why did the ‘Sky Wolf Seven Evil Spirits Smoke’ suddenly disperse?”

Looking forward and seeing Purple Lightning Peak visible in the distance, they finally felt safe. Even the Yao’shen School’s mysterious Demon G.o.d was afraid to slaughter in front of the Yu’hua Immortal Mountain.

Crane Fairy only let out a sound of surprise. She as well didn’t understand why the smoke had dispersed as soon as it touched her.

Only Fang Han realized that it was due to the ‘Map of the Hidden Yellow Dragon Spring.’ This mysterious picture, he still couldn’t discern its effects.

However, he couldn’t ask Crane Fairy about it.

“I also don’t know why. Perhaps we were lucky. Maybe the person recalled the smoke because they were afraid they would be discovered by the Yu’hua Immortal Mountain,” said Fang Han acting dumb.

Fortunately, Crane Fairy’s wisdom was like that of a eight/nine year old girl, and was very easy to trick.

“Perhaps. Anyway, we really dodged a bullet. That was so dangerous.” Crane Fairy circled a couple times before finally landing back on the cliff of Purple Lightning Peak. After resting with Fang Han for a while, they finally calmed down.

“Today has been tiresome, Fang Han. I must go back and rest.” Using her wings to pat her long neck, Crane Fairy let out a long yawn, and began drooling.

“That is good. As for the dangers outside, please let the other cranes know to not fly away from the Yu’hua Immortal Mountain.”

Fang Han nodded his head and watched Crane Fairy go and rest. Then, he went to his room, and took out the map to see if any changes had occurred.

At the same time, outside the Yu’hua Immortal Mountain, amid the many mountains, at the place where the ‘Sky Wolf Seven Evil Spirit Smoke’ appeared, a column of smoke slowly drifted down.

Eventually, all seven columns condensed into a ball and converged into a dark green gourd about the size of a fist.

Painted upon this dark green gourd were layers upon layers of talisman symbols, all floating around, like an engraved array. The Seven Evil Spirit Sky Wolves were absorbed into it.

A young man with a dark, cold face wearing black clothing picked up the gourd from the ground. He looked up at the sky, “That crane, how did it escape from my ‘Sky Wolf Seven Evil Spirits Smoke’? What happened?”

“Brother w.a.n.g Mo Lin, what are you doing so secretly?”

At this time, from amid the forest came a rattling sound followed by the appearance of a jade-green shadow. Coming from above, it suspended itself in front of the black clothed young man.

“Jin Shi Tai! Wolf Smoke Magic Ball!”

Upon seeing the approaching person, this black clothed young person, w.a.n.g Mo Lin, quickly moved his hand and made a cloud of smoke appear from the gourd. The smoke formed a dark green sphere, encapsulating himself, and rising like a large bubble.

First off, this dark green bubble helped him float. Secondly, it engulfed him, protecting him.

That jade-green shadow belonged to none other than Jade Fire Peak’s true disciple, Jin Shi Tai, the person who had sent people to clash with Fang Qing Xue.

“It seems as if Brother Mo Lin still hasn’t entered the Divine Realm. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be borrowing the power of the Seven Evil Spirits Gourd, and would use your own power to float. The Wolf Smoke Magic Ball emitted from this gourd is not bad, surrounding the entire body and making it impervious to swords and arrows, as well as flying swords. Quite nice,” stated Jin Shi Tai, laughingly.

“Jin Shi Tai, you have called me over to help you, why the satirical comments. Entering the Divine Realm is but a matter of time for me. Right now, even if it is someone who has entered the Divine Realm, as long as they haven’t trained to the fifth level, Person of Heaven, and cannot lay large arrays, then I compete with them by relying on my bao’qi level Seven Evil Spirits Gourd,” said w.a.n.g Mo Lin coldly. “If not for the many benefits given to you by your father knowing the Yu’hua School Pellet Treasury Elder, would you have been able to train to the Divine Realm? Become a true disciple? Five years ago, when the Yu’hua elders came together and refined some Yin Ying Longevity Pellets, your father begged for one of the pills and gave it to you. Otherwise, you would still be an inner court disciple.”

“You are really well informed. Okay, no more small talk. I have called on you this time because I truly require your a.s.sistance. Your Seven Evil Spirits Gourd is truly a bao’qi, a treasure. With it, one can withstand Fang Qing Xue’s Purple Yin Electric Thunder Knife.” The jade-green flames covering Jin Shi Tai’s body flickered, his thoughts unable to be discovered.

“Are you sure that the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ and ‘Map of the Hidden Yellow Dragon Spring’ are in Fang Qing Xue’s possession? If not, then I am not willing to take such a big risk and fight her. You must know, dealing with a Yu’hua School true disciple can easily incite the Immortal, Devil, and Demon paths to fight a big war!” w.a.n.g Mo Lin confirmed that his Seven Evil Spirits Gourd was still emitting the dark green smoke and keeping the Wolf Smoke Magic Ball encapsulating his body firm.

The ‘Seven Evil Spirits Gourd’ was a bao’qi with enormous power that had been plucked from a Demon Vine and raised by the Demon G.o.d of the Yao’shen School, and had many arrays engraved upon it by experts of the fifth level, Person of Heaven, of the Divine Realm.

Thus, although w.a.n.g Mo Lin wasn’t a pract.i.tioner of the Divine Realm, by blood-binding the gourd, he could borrow upon its power to kill people, fly, and protect himself.

It was a treasure which could both attack and defend, and truly lived up to its name of bao’qi.

[TL: bao means treasure]

Bao’qi, treasure, and precious baby all contain the bao character, and were all truly treasures.

[TL: Treasure – bao wu, Precious Baby – bao bei]

“Of course. That Bai Hai Chen of the Qun’xing School saw the meteorite land on Yellow Spring Mountain, and thus went searching for it. Upon finding it, he punched a big hole in it, and found the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ and ‘Map of the Hidden Yellow Dragon Spring’ inside it. The ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ can help you enter the Divine Realm. As for the ‘Map of the Hidden Yellow Dragon Spring,’ rumors say that it is a talisman of the Yellow Spring Great Emperor, and that it is a dao’qi. They also state that it contains a great secret, and if someone receives the secret, they can receive the Yellow Spring Great Emperor’s mantle, thus reviving the Huang’quan School and becoming the next generation Devil Emperor. The information of Bai Hai Chen receiving these two treasures reached the Fang Clan. A couple months prior, Bai Hai Chen disappeared in Long’yuan Province. Don’t you think that Fang Qing Xue has those two treasures? What about this, first, we will go settle things with Fang Qing Xue. I will give you the ‘Nine Aperture Golden Pellet’ and then we can study the ‘Map of the Hidden Yellow Dragon Spring’ together!” stated Jin Shi Tai.

“You want to kill Fang Qing Xue? If a true disciple dies, it will be hard for you to avoid responsibility,” said w.a.n.g Mo Lin with uncertainty.

“I’m not killing her, just taking her body and mind, conquering her, and forcing her to obediently hand the things over.” From Jin Shi Tai’s mouth, he revealed his endless conspiracy.
