92 A Shocking Change

“Give me three baskets of steamed buns and a bowl of chili tofu!”

Jiang Ming sat in a breakfast stall and shouted impolitely.

“You’ve already eaten five baskets. There’s no need to take care of my business.” Li Qingqing’s hands were full of flour as she brought over the tofu and steamed buns.

“What are you talking about? Martial artists cultivate their blood Qi. This little bit of food is nothing. The second-cla.s.s martial artist I know, Master Guan, can even finish a cow!”

Li Qingqing shook her head. She could not be bothered to argue with him. She rolled her eyes at him and went back to work.

Jiang Ming smiled and continued to eat the buns.

A moment later, Jiang Ming’s heart suddenly throbbed for no reason.

He suddenly raised his head and stared at the depths of the Cloudy Dream Mountain Forest.

After a few breaths, the sound of m.u.f.fled thunder seemed to come from the mountain.

“Is it going to rain? I think I heard thunder,” Li Qingqing quickly stuck her head out of the stall and said in surprise.

“No, the weather is very good. Miss Qingqing, you must be mistaken!” Jiang Ming’s expression was normal as he smiled.

He finished the last bun in one bite, left a copper coin, got up, and quickly returned home. He closed the door and sat quietly in his room, waiting.

Less than a quarter of an hour later, a swift flew over like a bolt of lightning and landed on the windowsill, chirping urgently.

“There was a big explosion in the forbidden zone, and a red light burst out. The smoke and clouds that shrouded the forbidden zone were blown away, revealing the scene inside the forbidden zone. It was a valley surrounded by mountains on three sides. A mountain was blown up, and there are countless casualties.

“The Grandmaster of the Zheng family, one of the six great aristocratic families, was killed on the spot. Some powerful beasts rushed out from the depths of the forbidden zone. They seemed to be enraged and fought with the human martial artists. A huge silver-gray wolf and a golden ape could easily match the Grandmasters.

“The laws of the forbidden zone seem to have lost their effectiveness. All living beings can enter the zone. Countless human martial art pract.i.tioners rushed into the depths of the forbidden zone and fought with those beasts in an attempt to fight for the immortal encounter.”

Jiang Ming’s eyes flickered. It seemed that the mastermind who had spread the news and attracted all the martial artists in the world to the Cloudy Dream Mountain Forest had finally taken action.

This move made Jiang Ming’s heart jump. What did the mastermind want to do?

Jiang Ming was not surprised to hear about the Grandmaster-level beasts in the mountains. He had long guessed that the beast-taming prescription was pa.s.sed down from the mountains. Even Black Bean could become a third-cla.s.s martial artist, so it was not surprising that the immortals had created a few Grandmasters.

Black Bean suddenly raised its head, “Red light? Did anyone suddenly die?”

Jiang Ming frowned, “What do you mean by that?”

“It’s not just one or two people who died,” Black Bean quickly replied, “Thousands or even more died in a short span.”

Jiang Ming was stunned, and then his expression suddenly changed, “North Peace City!”

Marquis Zhou had led his army north and won a great battle. He had killed countless soldiers of the Green Mountain Army and it was said that he did not leave a single prisoner alive. He had even slaughtered tens of thousands of civilians in North Peace City, causing blood to flow like a river.

Marquis Zhou had yet to return to the capital. It was said that he was still chasing after Lord Cangshan and the rest of the Green Mountain Army in the red pine snowfield.

“The Wu family’s ancestral records say that there was a demonic technique hundreds of years ago that could use dead blood Qi to refine the Ten Thousand Blood Pearl. It had unparalleled power and could even kill a Grandmaster. One of the Grandmasters of the Wu family’s ancestors was killed by it, so it’s recorded very clearly!” Black Bean quickly revealed all the information it knew, “Dead blood Qi can only be condensed in battlefields where countless people die in a short period of time.”

Jiang Ming’s heart trembled, and his previous doubts vanished. There was no doubt that the person behind this storm was Marquis Zhou Pingshi.

At the cost of the lives of all the people in North Peace City, the Ten Thousand Blood Pearl would be refined, and he would find the immortal encounter.

And his purpose, if one thought about it carefully, was truly terrifying!

“Does he want to become immortal by killing the current immortal?”

“It’s not impossible!” Black Bean suddenly said, “According to the Wu family’s records, it’s said that the spiritual energy of the universe has been exhausted, and the celestial path no longer exists. The strongest power in the secular world is the peak of the Grandmaster realm! It’s precisely because of this that no one can break past the Grandmaster level. Even if immortals descend, they will be restricted. If they want to use the power above the Grandmaster level, they will have to pay the price of serious injury or even death.

“The Cloudy Dream Mountain Forest should be a rare, blessed land where spiritual energy occasionally bursts out. I don’t know why the immortal is hiding here. However, if the legend is true and the world is incomplete, even if he uses the spiritual energy here, the immortal can’t exert much power that is beyond the Grandmaster level.”

Jiang Ming listened quietly, and finally glanced at Black Bean, “You’re pretty smart today!”

Black Bean immediately barked in happiness.

Jiang Ming was too lazy to pay attention to it. He closed his eyes and pondered, “If this information is true, then Marquis Zhou might really succeed with so many Grandmasters gathered here. However, that immortal must have many tricks up his sleeve. It’s still unknown who will win. Now that the news has spread, none of the aristocratic families will be able to keep calm. They are h.e.l.l-bent on killing the immortal. I don’t know whether they’ll survive the immortal’s wrath. I’m glad I didn’t partic.i.p.ate.”

Jiang Ming could not help but sigh in relief, and his expression became relaxed.

He was now waiting for his team of beasts to report back to him.

He opened his notebook and browsed through the names of many forces written down.

Suddenly, a swift returned.

“In the depths of the forbidden zone, a cave has been destroyed. Many martial artists have rushed in, and an intense battle has broken out. There are sounds of people fighting for something. Moreover, the head of the Chen family of Jiangnan City took advantage of the chaos to escape from the cave. He seems to be very smug.”

“Everyone is fighting, but he stole something and ran away!” Jiang Ming pouted and made a note next to the Chen family’s name.

“The Chen family’s head is a Dao Master. It’s too risky to fight him now. Let’s wait a few years.” Jiang Ming was calm and did not panic.
