The more heavily-guarded the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect appeared, the more suspicious Qin Wushuang became . It seemed that Senior Lu Xianlou had thoroughly investigated the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect . Perhaps, the route he drew and the hidden metaphor inside the mural may be genuine .
If the Heavenly Sun Mountain did not have unknown life lines, it would be unnecessary for the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect to guard the entire mountain with tight security . They had set up an impenetrable defense and occupied the entire mountain as their own .
After passing numerous heavily-guarded passes, Qin Wushuang and his group finally arrived at the base of the Wolf Ivory Peak . This peak was the training ground for core disciples of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect .
This Wolf Ivory Peak should not be underestimated as it had the size of at least ten thousand miles . The entire Heavenly Sun Mountain also stretched far and continuously for about a few ten thousand miles .
After Qin Wushuang had entered the Heavenly Sun Mountain, he had sensed the spiritual influence of a paradise . Throwing away his prejudice of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, this place was indeed extremely fabulous and deserving of being praised as a fortunate place .
After turning around the hill, crowded buildings appeared within a sea of bamboo trees . These buildings were a minor courtyard of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect .
Upon studying the map, Qin Wushuang knew that this should be the "Sea of Bamboo Courtyard . " This courtyard was the most unique one belonging to the core disciples .
With its' beautiful scenery and rich spiritual Qi, this place could be said to be one of the few core areas for the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect .
Before Qin Wushuang and his people could approach that Sea of Bamboo Courtyard, they were stopped by disciples laying in wait .
"Who are you, charging into the Sea of Bamboo Courtyard?"
Landlord Zuo immediately hurried to speak carefully: "Senior Brothers, I am Zuo Shao's father Zuo Yuting . "
This Landlord Zuo had a rather elegant name .
"Senior Brother Zuo Shao's father?" Those disciples did not seem to lack respect toward Zuo Shao . They sheathed their weapons and one of the disciple nodded as he saw Landlord Zuo's appearance: "That's right, I recognized Uncle Zuo . "
Landlord Zuo immediately cupped his hands into a salute: "Ha ha, this should be Senior Brother Tu . "
That disciple of the surname Tu immediately said: "I am Senior Brother Zuo Shao's junior, please do not call me senior brother, or else you are embarrassing me . "
Landlord Zuo laughed: "Alright, Junior Brother Tu, may I ask if Shakyamuni Chong Guang is here?"
That disciple of the surname Tu said: "The Shakyamuni is guarding the headquarters, the training of the core disciples have been charged to elders such as Luo Xiang and Luo Yang . "
Luo Yang?
Inwardly, Qin Wushuang was moved . Not all names of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect would make Qin Wushuang's heart stir . However, it was not his first time hearing the name of Luo Yang .
For your information, this Luo Yang was Zuo Tianci's uncle and he was also a major chest piece in the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect's control of the Nine Palace Faction in the human countries .
The direct backbone behind Zuo Tianci was Luo Yang .
Although Luo Yang was only one of the forty to fifty Elders in the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect and at the Profound Void Martial Stage, he was still a powerful figure despite not being at the peak .
This time, he was sent here to oversee the training of the core disciples . Unexpectedly, Qin Wushuang had bumped into him .
After a moment of silence, Landlord Zuo asked: "Then are these Elders present in this Courtyard?"
"Only Elder Luo Yang is here, the other two Elders are in the back of the Wolf Ivory Peak . They have been gone for a few days . "
Landlord Zuo said: "I see . Then I must trouble you to announce me . I didn't have a chance to pay a visit to Elder Luo Yang . "
"Wait a moment . "
In a moment, that Tu disciple had returned and said to Landlord Zuo: "Elder Luo Yang asks you to come in . "
Landlord Zuo was incredibly familiar with this place and it was clearly not his first time here . When they arrived at the Sea of Bamboo Courtyard, another person led them in .
In a moment, they had arrived at the place where Elder Luo Yang would receive guests .
Landlord Zuo knew the rules well as he had given the gifts first . The heavy gifts he had prepared for Shakyamuni Chong Guang could only be divided between the three Elders .
In the past, it was only Shakyamuni Chong Guang overseeing this place . Now, with the three Elders joining hands to govern this place, it had caught Landlord Zuo somewhat unprepared . As a result, he could only separate the gifts into three portions . However, despite separating the gifts into three sets, the gifts still appeared sufficiently generous .
No one would blame one who had carried with them a number of generous gifts . At least when Elder Luo Yang had received gifts, he seemed much happier . When he saw Landlord Zuo, he carried a half-smile on his face .
"It's my honor to meet with you, Elder Luo Yang . " Landlord Zuo had shown enough courtesy .
"Ha ha, Zuo Shao's great father . Good good . You are wonderful . You do look well, it seems you have a rather big foundation in the River Gate State City . "
Among the higher-ups of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, this Luo Yang could be said to be one of the greedier ones . Although he did hold a high position, he did not have much genuine authority and had not gained much profits .
Since he had now earned some profits, of course he was overjoyed at this moment .
"Ha ha, before Elder Luo Yang, those little foundations are not worth mentioning . If you are ever free, please come and grace my shabby home . "
"Wouldn't that be too intrusive? Ha ha . " Luo Yang did have such intentions and spoke a few spurious words of courtesy .
"Your words have regarded me as an outsider . If you are willing to come to my little home, you will surely bring fortune to my humble dwelling . Certainly the Feng Shui would become more prosperous in the future . "
"You speak funny words . Regarding this matter, my younger sister's husband also had the surname of Zuo . Unfortunately, ah…it's not necessary to mention those gloomy things . " For a moment, Luo Yang remembered his younger sister's family, his nephew Zuo Tianci, and appeared somewhat dejected .
He changed the topic and asked: "For this visit, did you have any emergencies?"
"Ha ha . " Landlord Zuo appeared somewhat embarrassed, "It's actually not some major business . As one grows older, the less one can accomplish . I have too much free time and want to see my son . Elder Luo Yang, usually how often does my Zuo Shao comes down the mountain?"
"The time of coming down from the mountain is not fixed . " Luo Yang said in a low voice .
"Then…Could you inform him to come down the mountain alone?" Landlord Zuo tried to ask .
"It's allowed during normal times . However, it's forbidden since the past few months . Last time before Head Dao Warrior had left, he had given an unquestionable order that all core disciples must train strictly . They must pour all efforts into training and train in seclusion for six months . Before six months, no one can come down the mountain . "
Luo Yang appeared to be in a somewhat difficult situation .
"Half a year? I am curious as to how long has passed?"
"Not much time is left, only a month remains . Certainly they will come out before Celebration of the Dead . By that time the Dao Warriors will also rush back altogether and hold a worshipping ceremony for the ancestors . Not a single disciple would be allowed to miss this event, unless they were in faraway lands and unable to make it back . "
Since Luo Yang had taken Landlord Zuo's presents, he had given a rather detailed explanation .
Currently, Landlord Zuo's spiritual perception was being controlled by Qin Wushuang as he asked: "The Head Dao Warriors have gone to pursue and eliminate that human kid, Qin Wushuang, right?"
When Luo Yang heard the three words "Qin Wushuang", instantly a incomparably malevolent expression appeared on his face . Surges of piercing murderous intentions flashed across his eyes as he nodded slowly: "It's that human kid! This kid is rather a miracle! I am deeply regretful that when he was om the human countries, I did not strangle him in the cradle in time!"
Luo Yang was expressing pain from the bottom of his heart . Whenever he remembered how Zuo Tianci had died at Qin Wushuang's hands, his heart would emit waves of throbbing pain .
In comparison, although Luo Ting had died and was also his clansman, his bloodline was not as close as his own nephew, Zuo Tianci .
Therefore, inside Luo Yang's heart, the death of Luo Ting had not affected him as much as Zuo Tianci's death .
"Ah, to nurture a tiger invites calamity . This Qin Wushuang has caused Head Dao Warrior to step out, it's also rather rare . However, since Head Dao Warrior has stepped out, this kid can only count his remaining days . "
Inwardly, Luo Yang kept smiling bitterly, the Head Dao Warrior stepping out? What about it? A few months have already passed and he had even not caught a single hair?
"I only hope that before the Celebration of Dead, the Head Dao Warrior will bring back Qin Wushuang's head . This way, our ghosts demanding vengeance for the sect will rest in peace . "
Luo Yang's complexion had appeared extremely distorted . He could not remain calm when he thought about Zuo Tianci's death .
"There would not be a problem . I heard people of the River Gate State City said that Qin Wushuang seemed to have appeared at the Dan Xia prefecture . He had also asked a local craftsman to make some tools . "
Luo Yang waved his hand: "Those are old stories and not news . Lu Xianlou already killed himself to atone for his sins . However, we did not catch that kid in the end . "
When Qin Wushuang heard these words, inwardly, he felt a surge of sadness . Indeed, Senior Lu Xianlou had died . Although Qin Wushuang and Lu Xianlou had only met twice, they seemed to have shared a friendship for a few hundred of years . They had shared a great mutual understanding . Upon hearing such terrible news, Qin Wushuang could not help but feel his heart throbbing with pain as he felt immense sorrow at the passing of Lu Xianlou .
To him, Lu Xianlou was not his teacher nor friend . He could not even be said to be an acquaintance . However, the things left by Lu Xinalou allowed Qin Wushuang to develop a kind of feeling that he must carry on the responsibility . It was as if he were the heir to Lu Xianlou's legacy .
When he heard this news, he could not help but mourn for him .
"Master Lu, although I knew that you had set a death wish at that moment, without a question, your death had added another heavy blow to the deep blood feud between me and the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect . Please rest assured, I will collect on each of the grievances against the sect . Perhaps, not long now, it would be time for them to repay the debt!"
Inwardly, Qin Wushuang prayed silently . If Lu Xianlou's spirit had not already gone far away, he hoped he could hear his thoughts .
The bitter resentment between him and the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect had reached an unprecedented level .
Landlord Zuo opened his mouth for he seemed to talk a bit more . However, Luo Yang obviously would not be willing to discuss more of their internal matters with outsiders . Immediately, he said: "Zuo, to see your son, you should have come after the Celebration of the Dead . You have come at a bad time now . How about you go back for now and return in a month? Unless, of course, you have the patience, then you can wait here . As long as you do not enter the Wolf Ivory Peak recklessly, it's not a problem to stay here for a while . "
These words were exactly what Qin Wushuang were looking for . This way, the news about core disciples like Zuo Shao going into secluded training for half a year was a fortuitous opportunity for him .
Landlord Zuo pretended to ponder over it for a moment and spoke after a moment: "I would have nothing to do if I returned . It would be rather a joyful experience for me to experience the charm of the giant Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect . Elder Luo Yang, I will stay here and impose on you for a month . In turn, I will prepare another set of gifts as compensation for staying here for a month . "
Luo Yang laughed: "Zuo, you are too kind . "
Although the words were spoken gracefully, his tone did not show a sense of rejection . In Qin Wushuang's eyes, of course he had identified Luo Yang as a greedy figure .
Being greedy was also a form of weakness . Presently, Qin Wushuang needed to grab ahold of all of his enemies weaknesses . In this Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, despite having the main force absent, there must still be a lot of elite warriors remaining . Therefore, Qin Wushuang must take all advantages the he could get .
