It has been about three days since Aotian escaped from Sunset City. During these three days, the shocking deeds of Aotian within the territory of Azure Cloud Sect have spread throughout the northern part of Fengyun Nation.
Aotian killed Candidate for Sect Leader Murong Qian, assassinated Grand Protector Chen Qiao, and beheaded Second Elder Fan Lian. The three High Priests of Azure Cloud Sect also fell at Aotian's hands.
In Sunset City, Azure Cloud Sect had laid a trap. Aotian single-handedly wielded a spear on the battlefield, slaying countless disciples of Azure Cloud Sect and managed to retreat unscathed. Such achievements left people in awe.
The name Aotian has spread widely from Sunset City and is now known by everyone in northern Fengyun Nation. It won't be long before it reaches the entire Fengyun Nation.
Many people have compared Aotian with the Four Young Masters of Fengyun, but the result shows that even the Four Young Masters cannot match Aotian's astonishing feats.
This undoubtedly indicates that Aotian's reputation has completely overshadowed that of the Four Young Masters of Fengyun, making him almost the foremost figure among the younger generation of Fengyun Nation.
On a high cliff, Aotian, Niu Geng, and Sun Jing stood side by side.
From the moment they escaped Sunset City, the three had effectively left the influence of Azure Cloud Sect, which meant that Azure Cloud Sect's pursuit of Aotian had temporarily come to an end.
Of course, Azure Cloud Sect would not give up on hunting Aotian for two reasons. First, Aotian's identity is unusual. If he left Azure Cloud Sect's territory while they continued to pursue him, it would inevitably provoke Xuantian Academy. Azure Cloud Sect does not have the courage to completely sever ties with Xuantian Academy.
Secondly, it was due to the appearance of that giant eagle in Sunset City. Within Azure Cloud Sect, there seemed to be differing opinions regarding killing Aotian and defending their prestige. It is believed that until a consensus is reached, Azure Cloud Sect will not easily take action against Aotian again.
While it was Azure Cloud Sect that wanted to kill Aotian, it was also Azure Cloud Sect that ultimately saved him. One cannot help but say that Azure Cloud Sect made a huge joke out of itself.
During these three days, Aotian and his companions focused on healing their injuries, and now their wounds have nearly healed. Especially for Aotian, being able to recover from a state of madness is indeed an extremely fortunate occurrence.
There are degrees to madness as well. For instance, Aotian's recent bout was a mild form of madness. Mild madness only requires unconsciousness; once you wake up, you can regain clarity.
Severe madness means being forever controlled by slaughter and unable to escape until death.
This is why Aotian woke up and regained his senses.
“Aotian, when you were unconscious, that giant eagle said it was Azure Sky who ordered to let you go. Do you have some connection with him?” Sun Jing looked at Aotian with confusion and asked.
Aotian remained expressionless, but he had roughly guessed the situation in his heart.
Azure Sky must have ordered to spare him in gratitude for not killing him back then, which made Aotian feel somewhat emotional.
Logically speaking, he had stolen the Gourmet Blood that rightfully belonged to Azure Cloud Sect's Young Master, which should have enraged him. However, the latter generously let him go, which naturally made Aotian develop a good impression of Azure Sky.
At the same time, Aotian secretly decided that if he had the chance in the future, he would help Azure Sky…
Then, Aotian fixed his gaze towards Ning City. Aoling had set off much earlier than him and was probably nearing Ning City. If Aoling arrived at Aojia in Ning City, it would definitely not be good news for Aotian!
Therefore, Aotian hurried towards Aojia in Ning City almost day and night while secretly swearing:
“Aoling, if you dare to harm my father, I will surely annihilate your entire lineage!”
…
In Azure Wind City, within the Purple Gold Chamber.
An elder stood respectfully behind Purple Spirit Cloud, reporting the latest information:
“Report, Miss. Aotian has already left the influence of Azure Cloud Sect and is heading towards Ning City.”
Upon hearing this, Purple Spirit Cloud's expression remained calm, seemingly unfazed. She popped a cherry into her mouth and chewed for a moment before saying:
“Chen Buren's disciple Aoling is indeed heading to Ning City?”
“Yes, Miss. Aoling's purpose for going to Aojia in Ning City is related to Aotian. However, according to her personality, if she doesn't find Aotian, she will likely vent her anger on his father,” the elder replied respectfully.
Purple Spirit Cloud pondered for a moment and said:
"According to the information, Aotian values the people around him greatly. If he returns and finds anything has happened to his father, he might do something foolish. Therefore, you should immediately send someone to hold back Aoling, preferably until Aotian arrives at Aojia. But remember, do not harm Aoling and his group; let Aotian handle it himself."
The old man bent slightly and respectfully replied, "I will follow the young lady's orders!"
With that, the old man exited.
"Hehe, brother, I didn't expect you to leave Azure Cloud Sect so safely. I am increasingly looking forward to your performance..."
Deep within Xuantian Academy, in the Council Hall.
Vice President Lin Chaoqun entered with a joyful expression and said to Elder Cheng Yuanshan and President Xue Haoyang:
"Elder, President, Aotian has already left the influence of Azure Cloud Sect and is heading towards his family."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yuanshan couldn't help but laugh heartily:
"Haha, I told you that kid wouldn't let me down. Very good, very good!"
Xue Haoyang also praised:
"The Elder's insight is as sharp and precise as ever!"
Cheng Yuanshan, stroking his graying beard, pondered for a moment and said:
"Chaoqun, send someone to Ning City, stating that from now on, Xuantian Academy is the backing of Aojia. Anyone who dares to touch Aojia should not blame me for turning against them!"
Lin Chaoqun nodded and then asked, "Elder, should we warn the Azure Cloud Sect to restrain themselves and not take action against Aotian?"
This time, Xue Haoyang spoke up first, "No need. The Azure Cloud Sect can act against Aotian, and we at Xuantian Academy don't need to interfere. However, Aojia must be protected to prevent that little guy from having any worries."
Upon hearing this, Lin Chaoqun suddenly understood. It turned out that the Dean and the Elder wanted to train Aotian, but Aojia was like a massive shackle that would bind Aotian's hands and feet. Therefore, Xuantian Academy needed to remove this shackle for Aotian to fully unleash his potential.
Once Xuantian Academy became Aojia's backing, very few people in Fengyun Nation would dare to touch Aojia, which undoubtedly eliminated any concerns for Aotian.
Having understood all this, Lin Chaoqun quickly walked out of the main hall to arrange related matters.
In a Wild Forest, about ten members of the Azure Cloud Sect were vigilantly watching their surroundings, led by Aoling.
However, at this moment, Aoling was sweating profusely, with a hint of fear in her eyes.
Nonetheless, as a disciple of Elder Chen Buren from the Azure Cloud Sect who had seen her fair share of grand occasions, Aoling quickly calmed down and asked a middle-aged woman, "Aunt Yue, have you found out the origins of those Masked Individuals?"
Aunt Yue referred to a graceful middle-aged woman named Liu Yue, who was a registered disciple of Chen Buren. In a way, they could be considered sisters.
Liu Yue shook her head with a somber expression and said, "No. The origins and movements of those Masked Individuals are quite mysterious, and it seems they are unwilling to engage us directly; they only want to delay us."
Aoling's eyes flickered as she softly said:
"Aunt Yue, does this mean they want to delay us from going to Aojia to find Aotian?"
Because Aoling set off early, she had not received any news about what happened in the northern part of Fengyun Nation. Otherwise, she wouldn't have brought these people to trouble Aotian.
Liu Yue pondered for a moment and sighed, "I'm not very clear either. Dragging us along like this isn't a solution. If they really wanted to stop us from finding Aotian, they should have killed us all."
Aoling glanced around and then said firmly, "We don't need to worry about those Masked Individuals anymore. Let's set off immediately for Ning City in Aojia. If we encounter them on the way, just avoid them and do not engage in any fights!"
Upon hearing Aoling's decision, Liu Yue didn't say much more but addressed the other disciples of Azure Cloud Sect, "Let's go, head straight for Ning City!"
Soon after, ten figures swiftly darted out of the Wild Forest, heading towards Ning City.
Just after Aoling and the others left, dozens of masked individuals in black robes suddenly appeared. They quietly watched as Aoling and her group disappeared from sight.
"Boss, should we continue to delay those people?" one of the black-robed figures suddenly stepped forward and asked the leader.
The 'boss' shook his head and said to everyone, "The young lady has sent word for us to return immediately. We don't need to concern ourselves with what happens next; let Aotian handle it himself."
"Understood!"
The other black-robed individuals responded respectfully and then followed the 'boss' back to Purple Gold Chamber to report.
On the other side, Aotian was getting closer to Ning City, and he felt increasingly anxious. During these days, he had been traveling day and night, consuming a lot of physical strength and energy.
However, in order to see his father as soon as possible and resolve the trouble with Aoling, Aotian did not rest for a moment, as if the only thought in his mind was to hurry on.
Sun Jing and Niu Geng were also aware that Aoling was causing trouble in Ning City. Therefore, they completely understood Aotian's relentless pace, and Niu Geng even occasionally shouted about wanting to snap Aoling's head off.
This left Aotian and Sun Jing astonished for a while; they clearly did not expect this simple-minded guy to be someone who could be so ruthless.
In fact, Niu Geng's simplicity only showed when he recognized someone as a friend. When it came to enemies, Niu Geng's methods were colder than anyone else's. This reassured both Aotian and Sun Jing.
In this world where strength is revered, mercy towards enemies is cruelty towards oneself. Fortunately, Niu Geng had a completely different attitude towards enemies compared to friends.
As they continued their journey, the outline of a city appeared before Aotian's eyes; it was Ning City...
