Chapter 44 Chao Gai 9 You Makes His Move
"Old man, have you ever heard of a sect called Qin Clan around here?" Lu Zhao asked.
"I've heard of this sect. Many people have been searching for them recently, but they've never returned," the sick old man said.
"Old man, do you know where it is?" Lu Zhao continued to press.
"We should keep going forward. It's only a journey of ten thousand miles, and we'll find the Qin Gate," the sick old man said after a moment's thought.
"Since you know about the Qin Clan, senior, have you ever heard about its origins?" Lu Zhao continued chatting with the other party.
"The origins of the Qin Clan are quite ancient. I heard that they are descendants of the Cai Clan. After the Cai Clan was destroyed by the Azure Emperor, only a small number of the remaining people founded the Qin Clan there," the sick old man explained.
"Since the elder knows these things, he should know about the Cai clan of the past. They possessed one of the Nine Secrets, the Secret of the Military."
"That's right, but after the Cai clan was destroyed, the secret of the military arts also disappeared and has not been found since. It is suspected that it has been lost."
"The Qin family are descendants of the Cai clan; perhaps the Qin family holds the secret of the military."
"You mean those who are searching for the Qin Clan are looking for the Cai Clan's secret military strategy?"
The two talked all the way towards the Qin Gate. As they talked more and more, Lu Zhao realized that the sick old man knew too much, as if he knew everything.
This made him even more certain of his idea that the old man might be Gai Jiuyou.
However, Gai Jiuyou had been living in seclusion for too long, and he was already very old, so very few people could recognize his identity.
Even when walking, he would cough from time to time.
If it weren't for repeated confirmation, it would be really hard to connect this old man with Gai Jiuyou; he was just too ordinary.
"Alas, I'm getting old. I was once injured by lightning, and it left me with a chronic illness that I've never fully recovered from," the sick old man sighed.
"It seems that you were already famous throughout the world when you were young. If you were to reveal your real name, it would surely cause a stir among cultivators all over the world," Lu Zhao said, clasping his hands in a slight gesture of respect.
The sick old man simply shook his head gently, without revealing his name.
He has clearly retired from public life and does not want the world to know about him.
Once he reveals his identity, he will inevitably attract countless people to worship him, and various forces will vie to pay homage to him, which will be troublesome for him.
Just think about how many holy lands paid homage to Jiang Taixu when he returned as a fully accomplished god-king.
It should be noted that at that time, Jiang Taixu was only seen as a king by the people, and they did not know that he had already become a saint, which caused such a sensation.
After the old madman's saint-level strength was revealed, all the major holy lands came to pay their respects.
Even major holy sites took the initiative to offer not only money and manpower but also help the old madman rebuild Tianxuan. This is the influence of a saint.
Not to mention this one, whose impact is naturally even more terrifying.
A figure who has been invincible for eight thousand years, whose every move attracts the attention of countless holy lands.
A single, casual remark can change the entire landscape of the BeiDou system.
Gai Jiuyou did not reveal his identity, and Lu Zhao did not press him further. The two continued their conversation as they made their way towards the Qin Clan.
However, he also inquired about many things related to cultivation during the journey.
I wanted to gain some experience in cultivation from this senior.
Although their paths are different, they may encounter similar problems at certain levels. In fact, given the other's knowledge and experience, he could easily provide a perfect answer to Lu Zhao's questions at this level.
"It's right there!" A loud shout suddenly came from behind the two.
At the same time, more than a dozen Dao principles spread out and were instantly captured by Lu Zhao.
"This is the Dao of Yin and Yang." Lu Zhao grabbed a wisp of Dao principles and instantly comprehended them, thus knowing which force had come this time.
Clearly, some people remembered what Lu Zhao looked like when he asked for directions.
After leaving the Qinling Mountains, they saw the bounty offered by the Yin-Yang Sect.
Some people, naturally, would not pass up the reward and would tell the Yin-Yang Sect about Lu Zhao's whereabouts.
So these people followed the trail and found Lu Zhao's whereabouts in this place.
Lu Zhao turned around and saw a dozen people rushing towards him. Apart from a young man, the rest were all old men.
"You actually hid here." The new Holy Son of the Yin-Yang Sect said.
"The Yin-Yang Sect's foundation is indeed astonishing; I was able to find them even after entering the Qinling Mountains." Lu Zhao frowned at this moment.
"The deaths of my Holy Maiden and the former Holy Son are both inextricably linked to you. This matter cannot be left unresolved. Today, I have come to avenge them," said the Yin-Yang Holy Son.
"Will you act alone, or with the people behind you?" Lu Zhao asked, but his tone remained calm.
"Why should I fight you?" The Yin-Yang Saint stood there and sneered.
"Hehe, Holy Son, only by not being reckless can you live a long life. The previous Holy Son all died at his hands. Holy Son, you are still no match for him. We will cripple him, and you can slowly figure out his path." An elder spoke, pressing towards Lu Zhao.
At the same time, he was also carefully observing Gai Jiuyou standing next to Lu Zhao. Once he confirmed that Gai Jiuyou was not the old madman, he was completely relieved.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Elder." The Yin-Yang Saint nodded.
The former Holy Son was killed by Ye Fan more than ten days ago.
Clearly, the current Holy Son is not as powerful as the previous one.
If they are killed again, the alternative holy son will inevitably be weaker.
If the candidate is powerful enough, they will not become a candidate for Holy Son, but will be directly selected as the Holy Son and become the face of the Yin-Yang Sect.
"Young man, your talent is indeed very strong. A holy body breaking through a curse that has lasted for hundreds of thousands of years is truly a feat that has shaken the ages."
"We'll beat him severely, then take him back to the sect for the sect leader to deal with. After that, we'll turn him into a Yin slave and make him suffer every day."
"Let's just take action and not give him any time to prepare."
"Ahem, these are matters for young people to resolve among themselves. If the older generation gets involved, how can young people grow?" Gai Jiuyou coughed lightly.
"Hey old man, how dare you meddle in the affairs of the Yin-Yang Sect? Are you tired of living?" An elder immediately frowned.
"I'm just an old man, and I'm powerless to do anything else. But now that this injustice has happened before my eyes, I can't just stand by and do nothing." Gai Jiuyou coughed a few times.
Although he sounded weak and listless, his tone was very firm.
"Let me cripple this sick old man. He's really getting in the way standing here. Let's deal with him first, then we'll deal with that kid," an elder said.
Before he finished speaking, the elder struck out at Gai Jiuyou.
At this moment, a huge yin-yang diagram appeared in the man's palm, rotating continuously and enveloping the two of them.
"This Yin-Yang Sect is really like an old man eating poison; they all seem to think they have too much time on their hands." Lu Zhao couldn't bear to look at them at this moment.
