CHAPTER 323: ALREADY TROUBLE AT ABODE

The Forest City, as its name suggests, it’s surrounded by a vast forest.

However, when the Four Seasons Valley’s disciples arrived, they truly understood what kind of forest it was.

" These...These are trees?"

" My goodness! They are even taller than the buildings!"

" What kind of trees these are? Some sort of spiritual trees?"

Even the smallest tree trunk was large enough for five people to encircle it. They never saw such trees even in the Southern Green Mountains.

" These trees contain spirituality. However, these do not have any other functions." Wu Liang explained. " Though, some special natured trees were harvested to make furniture and container boxes."

" What? These trees are normal? Then why are they so big?" Lin Xie couldn’t help but murmur.

Wu Liang nodded, " Precisely because it’s Great Sky Ruins. The earth vein of Great Sky Ruin is filled with a great amount of chaotic energy, giving an unusual amount of life and vitality to the surroundings of Forest City."

" However, The Forest City’s surroundings aren’t safe." Wu Liang’s voice took a deeper note.

" What do you mean, Grand Elder?"

" Don’t worry, You will know it soon."

Before they could arrive at the Forest City, they had to stop their flying treasure boat.

" From here, we need to go by foot. It’s forbidden to fly above the Forest City."

" Why is that?" Ming Yuexin asked curiously.

" There are a lot of monsters in the forest. They don’t like flying things."

The Forest City was vast, worthy of the three ancient cities of the Great Sky Ruins. Its size could be comparable with the Grand Sky City of the Holy Qilin Empire.

However, the architecture of the city was ancient, with an abundance of greenery.

" What? Ten thousand high grade spirit stones per person? This is robbery!" Chen Yin was shocked.

" Chen Yin, Don’t make a fuss here." Long Ming finally spoke as he paid the guards the fees.

" Please, Keep these with you all the time. This will help you throughout the Forest City and its surroundings."

The guards passed them a sort of wooden tokens. A hexagonal shape of the wooden token with a strange leaf embedded in it.

For others, it might appear ordinary, but not for Long Ming. With his Heavenly Revelation Eyes, he could see the intricate rune chain inside the token.

’ What’s more, it’s connected with the special surroundings of the Forest City.’

’ Blessing along with tracking, quite some interesting runic chains are embedded here.’

" What happened? Anything unusual?"

Long Ming turned around and smiled at Mu Qinglian. " Nothing at all."

" We have already booked an immortal abode for our accommodations. Let’s go and rest there first."

" Ahaha...Esteemed Guests from the Four Seasons Valley, Welcome..."

" You are Steward Mo, I believe?" Long Ming looked at him. " What are you doing outside? Shall we go in?"

" This...Young Master, There is a slight problem..." Steward Mo’s face was sweating.

" Ohoho, I didn’t expect Steward Mo to arrange so many pretty girls for us."

Long Ming’s eyes squinted when he saw a group of young men walking out of the abode.

" No-No, Young Master Sheng. They are from the Four Seasons Valley!"

" Ah, They were the ones who owned this before huh?"

The young man walked out haughtily, standing right before Long Ming.

" Oi, This place is now belongs to our Bright Cloud Island. You take your disciples and go somewhere else."

" Hooo, boy..." Long Ming rubbed his face. " There is really no lack of idiots."

" What did you just say?" Sheng Qian looked at Long Ming. " The Bright Cloud Island is a top force of western bay. Your sect is just a relic of the past! You dare to-"

" I am giving you three breaths of time." Long Ming spoke in a calm voice. " Apologize and leave this abode."

" Hahaha! AHAHA!"

Sheng Qian laughed loudly, attracting the attention of nearby. Ming Yuexin almost grabbed her sword, but Mu Qinglian stopped her.

" How about this?" Sheng Qian grinned. " There are so many beauties there. Why don’t you..."

*PAAA!*

A crisp sound and Sheng Qian almost vanished from his spot. One could see the splatter of blood and a few broken teeth flying in the air.

" Damn it! He attacked Brother Sheng!"

" Get him!"

" Who dares!"

Long Ming simply took a step forward as his killing intent soared like a tidal wave. His gaze was like deep of icy blue pools, freezing the souls of the disciples of Bright Cloud Island.

However, what made the disciples of Bright Cloud Island falter is that even amidst the swirling aura of killing intent, Long Ming’s figure stood detached, like a pure lotus amidst a deep swamp.

It was as if he could kill them without batting an eye, yet for him, their death would be meaningless, like mortal dust.

That’s the combination of Long Ming’s overwhelming killing intent from the recent massacre in the battlefield along with his Desolate Immortal Aura.

" I already gave you three breaths of time. But I believe none of you are competent enough to take my merciful approach." Long Ming gently fanned himself with his Plum Blossoms Fan.

" Bastard! You dare to insult us!"

" Kill him!"

The disciples of Bright Cloud Island rushed at Long Ming, brandishing their weapons. Long Ming could only sigh as he gently blew his fan.

Suddenly, the wind burst with fragrance as pink plum blossoms and petals filled the sky. Swirling like a petal storm, they blew away the disciples like swatting flies.

" Who are you? How dare you lay your hands on the disciples of our Bright Cloud Island?!"

An elder walked out as he looked at Long Ming, his gaze furious as he saw Sheng Qian fainted on the ground, bleeding from his mouth.

" So, What if you are an elder? A Harmonization Realm cultivator dares to prance before me?"

The elder suddenly felt a chill as he realized Long Ming was no longer standing before him. He suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder from his back.

And the moment that hand touched him, the elder suddenly felt as if he was weighed down by an entire mountain.

’ Wh-What’s happening?! I...I can’t circulate my true qi! What kind of power is this?!’

" Enough! Long Ming, Let him go."

Wu Liang walked forward as she gazed at the elder. " Bright Cloud Island is a respectable sect. I didn’t know you would do something this scummy."

" And you, Steward. I believe the Rain Dragon Commerce owes us quite some explanations."

" Forgive us, Lady Wu. I will take the responsibility for this." A man appeared in a golden robe as he bowed before Wu Liang.

" Steward Mo, Come with me. The chamber shall prosecute you." The man looked at the steward.

" The disciples of Bright Cloud Island, This property belongs to the Four Seasons Valley now. So, I hope you all give me some face and relocate somewhere else. I have quite some suitable choices for you."

" Hmph! Who do you think you are? Bastard, I will kill you all!" Sheng Qian finally gained his senses. However, before he could move, The elder stopped him.

" Are you the branch head of Rain Dragon Commerce of Forest City?" The elder asked in a cautious voice.

" Precisely."

" Then, We shall take our leave." The elder simply glanced at the disciples.

" All of you get up and move out."

" B-But..."

" DO AS I SAY!"

Sheng Qian bit his lips as he put a healing pill in his mouth. His gaze filled with hatred as he looked at Long Ming before leaving.

" I apologize for what happened. Thankfully, Lady Wu called me." The branch head of Rain Dragon Commerce smiled.

" The abode shall be cleaned shortly. Please enjoy your stay."

Long Ming looked at the departing figures of Bright Cloud Island and shook his head.

’ This is not a coincidence. Someone is pulling strings.’
