Refining the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 1230A – Elder Senior-apprentice Brother

Chapter 1230A – Elder Senior-apprentice Brother

…

The most basic reason a Holy Land was a Holy Land was because they had a Saint in personal command. Of course, if they could receive the awe and veneration of the countless trillions of lives in the vast brightness world, another important and indispensable reason was the powerful ability of the junior disciples they raised.

In everyone’s minds, ‘powerhouses like rain’ and ‘deep background’ were descriptions that could be arranged in the top three. Of course, there were exceptions everywhere and besides extreme individual cases, they could nearly be neglected.

“Western Mountain’s Nine Heads!” Cries of alarms echoed out in the hall. Numerous pupils shrank as many people subconsciously drew back, unable to conceal the alarm and fear in their eyes.

They couldn’t be blamed for losing face. It was just that the person who arrived was greatly unexpected and equally as terrifying. Nine Heads was a disciple of the Western Mountain and had been active a thousand years ago. It was rumored that he had the body of an ancient evil beast and devoured living beings to cultivate, creating endless sins and slaughter as a result.

Because he once swallowed the bloodlines of many Saints, he had stirred up their anger and they joined forces to pressure the Western Mountain into punis.h.i.+ng Nine Heads. Because of that, Nine Heads went into hiding. Many people thought he died, never imagining that he was still alive!

He had gone into hiding for a thousand years, disappearing from public view. No one believed he had been sleeping for the last thousand years.

Moreover, none of them were blind. Although they couldn’t clearly feel Nine Heads’ aura, the extreme taste of suppression made it difficult to breathe, and they seemed to smell an extremely strong scent of blood in their noses and mouths!

As they thought about the murderous crimes committed by Nine Heads as well as the old case of him devouring the descendants of many Saints, how could the people in the hall not be afraid?

Qin Yu didn’t know the name of Western Mountain’s Nine Heads, but the reaction of the people in the hall as well as Peachy’s tensed body told him that this person was incredibly powerful.

Before, when the peach tree portal she summoned was destroyed, Qin Yu had sensed something wasn’t right. Now the strange feeling was even clearer.

Lian Yi and his group came without invitation, and the Scholartree Saint had concealed himself. After that, his main body arrived and he didn’t hesitate to start a battle with the Spring Master who arrived afterwards. Now, there was also the dreadfully strong Nine Heads arriving from the shattered s.p.a.ce.

No matter how he looked at it, this all appeared to be a plan that had been prepared for a long time. If that was the case, the complexity and danger of today’s events had to be beyond his imagination.

The truth was simple. Before Lian Yi died, he never imagined that upon crossing the Sea of Bitterness and becoming a Saint, he would be cut down by Qin Yu. Even if the Scholartree Saint was a True Saint who reached the other sh.o.r.e, he never could have predicted this in advance.

In other words, Qin Yu was at most a random chess piece that had entered the game and disrupted their arrangements. He simply wasn’t a key part of the plan.

Now, using the excuse of taking revenge for Lian Yi and killing him, they intended to continue with their original plan.

The Western Mountain wanted to kill Qin Yu, but Qin Yu wasn’t their final goal. If Qin Yu hadn’t spoken with Dragini before, he wouldn’t have been sure. But now…his eyes fell on Peachy’s back and he took a deep breath, saying, “Senior-apprentice sister, I can deal with him alone. You leave first!”

Peachy shook her head.

“Senior-apprentice sister!”

Peachy said, “I was the one who implicated you.” Her expression was faint. “Wait a moment. If a chance opens up, escape by yourself.”

Nine Heads lifted a fist and punched. Like a 10,000 jin boulder cras.h.i.+ng into a lake, it instantly aroused tremendous waves.

The peach blossoms in the void were suddenly dispersed. Before the Ten Mile Peach Forest had fully condensed, it was forcibly scattered!

Everything’s breath caught in their throats.

Although they expected Nine Heads to be extremely formidable after vanis.h.i.+ng for a millennium, his power far exceeded their expectations.

Lian Yi had shattered the Ten Mile Peach Forest, but he hadn’t been able to do it so easily. If so, that meant Nine Heads was even stronger than Lian Yi!

Nine Heads grinned. “Since junior-apprentice sister Peachy refuses, I apologize for the offense.” He lifted a hand and grasped forward. The void behind him suddenly roared.

A ferocious monster phantom appeared. It was like a ma.s.sive snake with nine heads and eighteen pairs of dismal yellow eyes, filled with a sense of desolation and bleak death as they all locked onto the pair at the same time.

Kacha –

Kacha –

The flowing water freezing at a low enough temperature, the crackling sounds resounded with one’s soul. Because the strength that arrived right now was imprisoning their souls!

Qin Yu raised an eyebrow. Could it be that cultivators of the Western Mountain lineage were more focused on cultivation of the soul?

Before, Lian Yi had wanted to drag him into the grave with him, and the Nine Heads in front of him also wanted to kill him. This was like…taking the initiative to feed him!

Feeling that Old Turtle was getting ready to move, Qin Yu hesitated a little. Although the two True Saints had entered the aether to fight, the Dragon Saint’s avatar was still here. If he sensed this and used this chance to do something, he would really be feeling it later.

Qin Yu was able to kill Lian Yi because he was strong enough. But, a point that could not be ignored was that Lian Yi had just broken through and suffered a backlash from the heavens and earth, giving Qin Yu an opening he was able to take advantage of. If it weren’t for that, the final outcome would still be unknown.

If he really had to face the Dragon Saint’s avatar, even if he had the Light and Dark Body, he still had no confidence in victory.

But the way things progressed soon eliminated Qin Yu’s dilemma, because someone else arrived.

Nine Heads raised an eyebrow. The evil beast phantom behind him also raised its nine heads and bit forward. Even though it was just a phantom, it had the ability to interfere with reality. s.p.a.ce suddenly shattered.

A figure walked out. At first glance, this person gave off the impression that they were truly tall and ridiculously strong. Whether it was because this person had a special hobby or that he instinctually liked to remain clean, he wore long white robes that had no bit of color variation to them.

As for those robes, they could be called a slim fit, so they adhered to his tall and strong figure, completely showing off his body…to describe a man as having many curves and angles might be inappropriate, but it perfectly suited this person.

“Nine Heads, are you feeling itchy again? You dare to touch my junior-apprentice sister Peachy?” Completely inconsistent with his appearance, his voice was warm, and even in this situation his words were soft. One couldn’t sense the slightest bit of strength or aggressiveness from them.

But the voice wasn’t important, because this person was walking through the turbulent flow caused by the nine-headed evil beast tearing through s.p.a.ce. Yet, he walked through it as if he didn’t feel anything at all. His tightly fit robes weren’t even lifted a little at the hems.

As if an invisible force field covered him and nothing from the outside could penetrate it!

Qin Yu already knew that everyone from the peach garden, whether it was the Spring Master, senior-apprentice brothers, or senior-apprentice sisters, were all very different from what he expected. Even so, he couldn’t help but widen his eyes in wonder. Was this his elder senior-apprentice brother? Or second senior-apprentice brother?

He soon received an answer.

Peachy bowed, “I greet elder senior-apprentice brother!”

This was the elder senior-apprentice brother who liked to go into seclusion and speak reason the most, and was also the idol of White Phoenix. In terms of how tall and burly his body was, he really was deserving of his name.

As all sorts of random thoughts ran through Qin Yu’s mind, he cupped his hands together and said, “Qin Yu greets elder senior-apprentice brother!”

Elder senior-apprentice brother nodded at Peachy and then his eyes landed on Qin Yu. “Little junior-apprentice brother, how are you? I was deep in seclusion and only came out to meet you now. It really was disrespectful of me.”

Qin Yu said, “Elder senior-apprentice brother is wise to earnestly focus on cultivating.”

Elder senior-apprentice brother nodded in satisfaction, “For you to say this, that is wonderful. As cultivators, what we need to do is cultivate, cultivate, and cultivate some more. Time pa.s.ses and we cannot chase after it, so how can we disappoint ourselves? Little junior-apprentice brother, remember to keep this in mind in the future and don’t slack off.”

These words were reasonable and were also in line with elder senior-apprentice brother’s status. But Qin Yu couldn’t help but feel a little strange. Currently, the Western Mountain was having a full-scale battle with the peach garden. Elder senior-apprentice brother, is it really appropriate for you to be so long-winded and tell me all of this?

It wasn’t just Qin Yu, but for many people in the hall, this was the first time they had seen the rumored elder senior-apprentice brother of the peach garden.

Those white clothes, that tall and strong body, that curvy figure…it was indeed a bit unusual and it left their complexions a bit stiff. This elder senior-apprentice brother had come with the momentum of an avalanche, but how come he slowed down to a crawl as soon as he arrived? Was this the peach garden’s elder senior-apprentice brother’s way of doing this?

Qin Yu coughed and bowed deeply. “I thank elder senior-apprentice brother for the advice. I will remember it.”
