Chapter 1321
Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon
Jing Yuesha had no idea what Yi Yun was planning . So it surprised her when Yi Yun actually began to shop in Cloud Pool City .
Yi Yun went to various stores and looked at the merchandise very carefully . Every time, Yi Yun did not find anything of interest . All he did was shake his head gently .
Jing Yuesha could not help but ask, "Sect Master Yi, what do you want to buy?"
"I'm just browsing . Also… just call me Yi Yun . " Yi Yun laughed . He was deliberately teasing Jing Yuesha in the past . Now, he felt a little sorry for his actions .
"Okay…" Jing Yuesha nodded . "Young Master Yi, Master just said that if you do not leave tonight, it will be difficult to escape when you want to…"
"I know . Thank you for speaking up for me, Miss Yuesha," Yi Yun said solemnly as he looked at Jing Yuesha . His sudden choice of words left Jing Yuesha a little embarrassed .
"Not that it did anything . Besides… it was all because of me that you quarreled with Princess Redjoy and exposed that recipe, making you a target of the Pillheart Sect…"
Yi Yun shook his head . "It has nothing to do with the pill recipe . I was bound to reveal my wealth when participating in the auction . The Pillheart Sect was only looking for an excuse . In fact, when the auction began, I went in fully expecting such an outcome . "
As Yi Yun spoke, he suddenly felt a minute fluctuation in the surrounding Heaven Earth Yuan Qi . It spread out and was gathering towards a particular direction .
Yi Yun turned to look in that direction . What he saw made him frown slightly .
He saw a gigantic cauldron flying slowly over from the horizon .
The cauldron flew very slowly but it carried an immense might . It made the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi throughout all of Cloud Pool City fluctuate slightly .
Yi Yun clearly recognized a familiar emblem carved on the cauldron . He had seen it before on Su Muyan and company's chests .
It was the Pillheart Sect!
The cauldron was clearly a mobile abode in the form of a cauldron . And those within the cauldron were no doubt experts from the Pillheart Sect .
"How are they so fast?"
Upon seeing the cauldron, Jing Yuesha was stunned . She naturally recognized the emblem . Her master had surmised that more experts from the Pillheart Sect would rush over, but that it would take them at least a day . It was unexpected that the Pillheart Sect reacted so swiftly .
Yi Yun said, "The Heavenly South Peaks Meet is about to begin . Perhaps the members of the Pillheart Sect were already on the way here . Of course, they might have come early because of me . "
Yi Yun was very aware of the value of the divine alchemist's heritage . To the Pillheart Sect, it was something it had to acquire at all costs .
"Boom!"
The cauldron landed on a mountain range outside the city . Its massive three feet crushed countless boulders and even the void trembled as a result .
Cloud Pool City's warriors naturally noticed the Pillheart Sect's cauldron . Although many large factions were participating in the Heavenly South Peaks Meet, most experts would choose to keep low profiles while entering Cloud Pool City . Few would be like Pillheart Sect, smashing down onto a mountain in plain view of Cloud Pool City with a massive cauldron .
"What an ostentatious display by the Pillheart Sect . I heard from my sect Elders that there was a fellow named Yi Yun at the auction who offended Su Boyang . That Yi Yun also has some long-lost heritage of the Pillheart Sect . Could this cauldron be here for Yi Yun?"
Warriors all around the city were discussing the matter . There were many participants at the auction so the news had long spread .
"It's not that simple . Hehe . Look at that Yi Yun's cultivation level . He's not worth the Pillheart Sect's efforts . The Pillheart Sect has raised such a rumpus not for Yi Yun but to scare all the other parties that might be eyeing Yi Yun . From the looks of it, the heritage that Yi Yun holds in hand is very important to the Pillheart Sect," said an elder . People found what he said to make sense .
However, even if this was not known, no faction would have dared to snatch Yi Yun from the Pillheart Sect's proverbial jaws anyway .
After all, the Pillheart Sect was a faction that went beyond the constraints of the Heavenly South Great World . It had many branches in other Great Worlds . Even the Outcloud Empire and Divine Empire of Thunder did not dare touch the Pillheart Sect .
"Young Master Yi, what can you do now?"
The Pillheart Sect was standing guard outside the city . It was now impossible for Yi Yun to exit the city . Jing Yuesha began to believe that Yi Yun was in danger even if he stayed inside Cloud Pool City . Perhaps, the Pillheart Sect would ignore Cloud Pool City's rules and capture him once the Heavenly South Peaks Meet was over .
"Miss Yuesha, I plan on returning to the tavern . You should return and rest too," said Yi Yun . The auction had taken up most of the day, so it was likely that Su Boyang had already called in the Pillheart Sect before it was over .
"But…"
Jing Yuesha did not finish her sentence . She was at a loss for words . It was already late into the night and since Yi Yun was planning on returning to the tavern, it was unbecoming of her to follow him .
"Alright then . " Jing Yuesha could only nod her head awkwardly .
With the Heavenly South Peaks Meet beginning, the Cloud Pool City's taverns were mostly booked . Yi Yun and company had failed to find a tavern that could take them all in, so they found separate lodgings . Yi Yun stayed in Perilla Tavern which was a distance away from the tavern the Clear Lunar Island group stayed at .
Perilla Tavern was considered a mediocre tavern in Cloud Pool City . Typically, large factions that participated in the Heavenly South Peaks Meet would place a lot of emphasis on their reputation . They would reserve high-class inns well ahead of time and so did not need to even enter such taverns . They felt it would be undignified, but Yi Yun did not care about such things .
Yi Yun returned to Perilla Tavern alone and sat on the bed to meditate .
He spent more than forty hours meditating . More than two days and two nights had passed, and they passed by peacefully .
During these two days, Jing Yuesha would pass by Perilla Tavern, hoping to find Yi Yun . But when she came to the tavern, she learned that Yi Yun had placed a 'do not disturb' sign with the tavern's owner . Jing Yuesha could only leave .
She felt it wasn't right to knock on his door . Warriors spent most of their time meditating in cultivation . Knocking on the door suddenly would be rude . Furthermore, she would have nothing to say to Yi Yun if she did see him .
And so it was, when the sun set on the third night . The meditating Yi Yun suddenly opened his eyes and pushed open the window . Like a light dove, he flew out of Perilla Tavern .
Cloud Pool City did not have curfews and the city gates were never closed . People could leave the city at night but not enter .
Yi Yun was dressed in black and he kept his aura converged . Under the night sky, he appeared to fuse with the darkness itself . He was pretty much indistinguishable .
After Yi Yun made it out of the city, he began flying towards a valley .
The night was cold, with freezing winds inundating him . Yi Yun's clothes fluttered but he remained calm . He was fast and, from afar, he could see faint shadows a distance away . They instantly vanished, seeming to melt into the world .
