Refining the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 1660B – King Realm Cultivator

Chapter 1660B – King Realm Cultivator

After the 'Candied Haw' Stone PaG.o.da, the four of them went a whole round and saw about forty other stone paG.o.das. However, they still got nothing.

Beside a stream and luscious green trees, Red Cloud Sect had specially placed a simple set of stone tables and chairs for those climbing the mountain to rest at.

The group rested here.

They were not the only ones resting under the trees beside the creek. However, when cultivators were out, they tended to act more carefully and kept a good distance away from each other. They all spoke softly amongst themselves and the entire place was not too noisy.

Yang Fanshan took out the immortal fruits that he had purchased on the ferry. He cleaned it in the stream before placing it on the table.

“Your honor, Qin Yu and My Lady, please have some fruits to quench your thirst. I feel bad that you have to suffer with me.”

Qin Yu smiled, “Lord Yang, you are too courteous. Since we have a deal, this is all part of it.”

Crunch –

Beside them, Rourou had already picked up a fruit and bit into it. She looked at Yang Fanshan across her before looking at Qin Yu beside her. She could not help but look at him in disdain.

Tsk tsk, when it came to judgement and knowing how to treat others, you are too far from him!

Qin Yu was confused.

Yang Fanshan coughed lightly, “I saw a stone paG.o.da at the lower part of the stream. It is quite near here. You all can rest here, I will go and have a look.”

Waving his hand, he stood up and left.

Old servant Jin Shen rushed after him. Seeing that things were not going well, Yang Fanshan immediately tried to stay out of it. He was not willing to be implicated.

Qin Yu smiled, “Lord Yang is a smart man.”

Rourou nodded, “At least you are aware.”

Qin Yu looked impatient as he picked up a fruit. Woo…the taste was amazing. It was almost the same as when he was on the Green Rain Sect’s ferry.

He looked around and suddenly frowned. He thought about something but did not say anything as his expression turned neutral again.

Very soon, there was a strange look on Qin Yu’s face. He did not do anything but the other person had walked up to him on their own accord.

Although the person wearing a bamboo hat purposely did not look at him, their actions were too obvious and unrefined. Qin Yu could see through her.

“We came across each other at the Candied Haw Stone PaG.o.da. That old man is not a good person, you all should hurry and leave Many PaG.o.da Mountain so as not to be implicated.”

In a suppressed voice, the woman with the hat spoke quickly before rus.h.i.+ng off. Qin Yu frowned and an even stranger look appeared on his face.

As for Rourou, her expression did not change at all.

A moment later, Yang Fanshan reappeared, he was holding his glee, “I found it!” The paG.o.da keeper who had an agreement with the Yang Family was in the paG.o.da by the stream.

Rourou looked up at the paG.o.da by the stream and stood up, “Let’s go.”

Qin Yu coughed lightly, “I am a bit tired. I will rest here. My Lady, you can go ahead.”

Rourou looked at him and her lips pulled up in a mocking look. However, she did not say anything as she turned and headed to the paG.o.da.

Yang Fanshan bowed towards Qin Yu before rus.h.i.+ng after her.

Qin Yu rubbed his nose with an impatient look. With Rourou, he could not hide anything.

However, you are not objecting to this right?

If you are not objecting, it means you support.

Qin Yu then smiled and kept the uneaten fruits.

Rourou liked to eat this and he could not just let others have it. He stood up and headed to the forest beside the stream.

……

“Please wait up!”

Looking at the woman in the hat chasing after them, the man and woman that had stopped, had icy looks and they both were wary.

Thankfully, the woman in the hat stopped a distance away and the two of them relaxed slightly.

The female cultivator said, “What is the matter?”

The woman in the hat waved her hand, “Don’t misunderstand, I have no ill intentions towards you. I came to warn you that the sloppy old man is a very powerful cultivator. I have no other intentions. Please be careful.

“If possible, you should ask the elders and seniors in your sect to come to Many PaG.o.da Mountain to take you away in case of any trouble.”

The faces of the two people changed and the male cultivator stepped forward. He put his hands together, “Thank you miss for your reminder. We understand.”

The woman in the hat nodded, “That’s good. I will take my leave.”

She turned and left.

After confirming that the woman in the hat had left, a serious look appeared on the faces of the siblings from the same sect.

“Junior Brother, you are right. There is trouble.”

The man nodded, “Senior Sister, we should send a message to Master to ask him to fetch us from Many PaG.o.da Mountain. We don’t have to say anything else, Master will understand.

The female cultivator nodded.

The two of them rushed off to the base of the mountain. The Red Cloud Sect had set up a communications point. After preparing the message, they had to activate the communication tablet. ‘Woosh’, there was a sound in the air.

After doing that, the two of them did not go back up the mountain but instead, went to a guesthouse that the Red Cloud Sect owned at the base of the mountain. They got ready to settle in. Paying a sum of money was nothing. Though they knew that they were paying more, it was all for ‘safety’.

Just as the two of them successfully registered into the guesthouse, a black mist appeared from the jade hairpin and disappeared.

On Many PaG.o.da Mountain, an old sloppy man sat cross-legged beneath a tree. He suddenly snorted angrily and his eyes shot open.

“Busybody. How dare she ruin my plan, she deserves to die!”

He stood up very quickly as if he knew where his target was. Very soon, he found the young girl wearing the hat.

“Little brat, have your elders never taught you what it means by trouble starts from the mouth?”

Sneering, the sloppy old man blocked the road as his eyes resembled a wild predator.

The girl in the hat was visibly shocked as she backed off and spoke in a frantic tone, “What are you talking about? I don’t understand! I am warning you, this is the Red Cloud Sect’s territory; you can’t mess around here. They will not just sit and watch!”

The sloppy old man smiled sinisterly, “I cannot bear to create trouble with the Red Cloud Sect. But I would like to see how a little brat like you will let them know of this…”

He suddenly stopped talking and the old sloppy man frowned. He glanced behind, “Little brat, you are lucky today. Hehe!”

The heart of the woman in the hat was beating extremely fast. She bit her lip as she turned and ran. She kept running until she was a far distance away. She was panting heavily. Scary, how scary. The eyes of the old man were too scary and she almost cried.

Alas, she had to listen to her elders. She should watch herself and be less of a busybody.

Hmm…she had to not care for at least a month. Yes!

The old sloppy man turned and looked at a huge tree. He sneered, “Your Honor, you wanted to save her and you have succeeded. Aren’t you going to leave? Or do you want me to send you off?”

A figure flashed beneath the tree and Qin Yu stepped out. He said slowly, “Your Honor is at the Ruler realm; why are you making things difficult for the young girl?”

The old sloppy man frowned, “You know my cultivation level yet you still dare to stay here. It seems like your initial Ruler realm is not ordinary. Or is it that you think that on this Many PaG.o.da Mountain, being an initial Ruler is enough to make me hold back?”

Qin Yu lifted his finger and tapped the air. ‘Pak’, a ball of black air appeared and was shattered.

“It seems like Your Honor is still not willing to be friendly.”

He took a step forward and the old sloppy man’s expression changed drastically. There was shock in his eyes.

“King realm!” He did not hesitate as he shot up to the sky. He did not care whether this would anger the Red Cloud Sect.

Begging for mercy…he knew that there was no chance. Anyone who dared to attack a person of the King realm would be doomed to ten deaths with no chance of rebirth.

Even if this person’s King realm was unusual.

Very soon, the old sloppy man who shot up into heaven looked in utter despair. It was as if he had fallen into thick mud and was unable to move.

An immense and horrifying suppression force surrounded and crushed him from all directions. He felt like fish meat on a chopping board.

“Your Honor, please have mercy….”

Before he could finish speaking, ‘pfft’ a hole appeared in the old sloppy man’s forehead. His eyes turned bleak and there was only horror and despair left on his face.

The old sloppy man’s soul also disintegrated with him. A cultivator of the Ruler realm was killed on the spot.

Qin Yu reached out and two treasures landed in his hands. With a wave of his sleeve, the man turned to ashes.

Looking up, he saw a figure above him. The figure had an angry look frozen on his face and his expression was interesting. Seeing Qin Yu look at him, his body trembled and he quickly landed on the ground. He greeted respectfully, “I am the Chief Elder from the Red Cloud Sect, Zhang Yuanji. Greetings, lord.”

That’s right, the Red Cloud Sect ruled the area with iron laws. This was to ensure the safety of Many PaG.o.da Mountain and make sure that no cultivators would fight amongst themselves. If they did, it would be seen as challenging the Red Cloud Sect and would be severely punished.

But they also considered who it was when it came down to it.

This person in front of him…unless Zhang Yuanji was stupid and wanted to ruin the Red Cloud Sect, he would not deal with this by enforcing the laws impartially.

He was not stupid!

With a single thought, the immense suppression force that had rendered the Ruler realm cultivator helpless and caused him to be utterly destroyed disappeared in an instant.

King realm. This was the Transcendent abilities of those from the King realm.

The appearance of this kind of person on Many PaG.o.da Mountain was an honor to the Red Cloud Sect. Killing someone was nothing. Even if they crushed half of the mountain, what could the sect do? Even if the Sect Leader came, he would only be able to give a thumbs up and praise the King realm cultivator for being powerful!

Qin Yu did not know that the Chief Elder from the Red Cloud Sect believed that he was at the King realm, but he could kind of guess what was running through his mind. The fewer complications the better. Since he was a.s.suming it, Qin Yu was not going to say anything and leave it to him.

“Today, because of the deceased, I had no choice but to take action. I do not mean to target the Red Cloud Sect.”

This sentence was like drinking an icy bowl of green bean soup on a burning hot day. Zhang Yuanji felt extremely refreshed.

He breathed a huge sigh of relief!

That’s right. He had been most afraid that the King realm cultivator was intending to go against the Red Cloud Sect and was using this as an excuse to make a move. The worst case scenario did not happen and it sounds like this King realm cultivator was someone he could talk to.

Zhang Yuanji spoke respectfully, “Your Honor, have you solved your issue? If not, the Red Cloud Sect will follow your instructions.”

Qin Yu replied, “There is nothing left. You can go. Don’t let anyone know of my presence.”

“Don’t worry.”

Qin Yu turned and left. He moved at a moderate pace and continued for a long time. After confirming that the Chief Elder was not investigating him, he breathed out a sigh and his face paled slightly.

When he made a move to kill the Ruler, though it had seemed impressive, it had taken a huge toll on his body.

However, the effect was good.

A Chief Elder of a sect from the Central Desolate Divine Area, who was also a peak Ruler, had been trembling.

This felt really good!

Zhang Yuanji lifted his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead as he watched the King realm cultivator leave. He hesitated for a while before deciding to keep this to himself. At most, he would tell the Sect Leader when he was out of isolation.

If he disobeyed the words of the King realm cultivator, was he trying to die? Taking a deep breath, he slowly let it out. Zhang Yuanji felt as if he and the Red Cloud Sect had avoided a huge calamity.

Though a peak Ruler seemed like just a step away from the King realm, the distance was like heaven and earth. A peak Ruler was like the three layers of heaven, earth and human. With the body embodying heaven and the spirit embodying earth, one is able to form a cultivation that is ‘human’ and merge all three powers. If any of it were able to reach the Celestial Gate, they would have a chance to enter the King realm.

But it was only a small chance.

In the Central Desolate Divine Area, Saints were still considered powerful. The number of Rulers there was greater than in other Desolate regions. As for peak Rulers, because the number of Rulers was quite large, quite a few peak Rulers also appeared over time.

But what about the King realm?

That’s right, they had even more than the other Desolate regions added up. But compared to how big and vast the Central Desolate Divine Area was, it was still considered few. Moreover, they were all quite secretive.

This person today was the first King realm cultivator that Zhang Yuanji had seen.

After his shock and fear, he had a slight regret. If he could announce to everyone that a King realm cultivator had appeared on Many PaG.o.da Mountain, the Red Cloud Sect would be rich and everyone would respect them.

The Sect Leader would also no longer have to be fearful of others attacking them because of their riches.

Returning to the forest beside the stream, Qin Yu’s complexion returned to normal, at least on the surface. He placed the fruits down and sat on the stone chair, breathing out lightly.

If the girl in the hat had not come over with the warning, Qin Yu would not have done anything even if he realized that something was off.

So though it seemed like fate, everything was related.

Closing his eyes, Qin Yu concentrated and unknowingly fell into a deep sleep.

Woosh –

Rourou’s figure appeared beside Qin Yu. She looked down at him and could not help but raise her brows. It seems like there were some things beyond her expectation.

She looked up at a part of the Many PaG.o.da Mountain. Rourou spoke slowly, “You are lucky.” She turned and sat beside Qin Yu.

Yang Fanshan and old servant Jin Shen appeared in a distance and saw the scene in front of them. They felt their hearts tightened as they stopped walking.

They hesitated before walking to another part of the stream.

The other cultivators that had been sitting around the stone table all looked at each other. They exchanged glances before sneaking a look at the couple by the stone table. As if they had been shocked, they quickly got up and left.
