Yellow Court Daoist-Chapter 47 Miao Yin City Lord!
Miao Yin City.
City Lord Mansion.
A beautiful woman was seated at the head of the table.
Her delicate features were complemented by her graceful figure dressed in a goose-yellow gown. She appeared to be in her thirties but radiated a charm that could captivate all living beings.
In her arms, a crystal toad resembling an ice sculpture lay quietly, its eyes staring up at the sky.
Below her.
A burly middle-aged man with thick eyebrows exuding a domineering presence sat astride a saber. Behind him stood Zuo Xiao and Luo Junxia, both standing upright.
The only person in the world who could command such respect from these two was none other than the Sect Master of the Returning to Truth Sect, known as 'Unrivaled Tyrant Blade,' Zhuge Chongyang!
With Zhuge Chongyang present, the identity of the beautiful woman seated at the head was evident —
"Miao Yin Immortal, Zhuge has come this time truly for a family disgrace. In the southern city, there are three siblings; the second is a servant disciple of our Returning to Truth Sect, while the oldest and the youngest are villagers from Jiuzhai County. They are stubborn by nature, and after stealing our cultivation technique, they fled and have ended up in Miao Yin City, causing trouble for the Immortal."
Zhuge Chongyang, known as 'Unrivaled Tyrant Blade,' showed no arrogance in the presence of the seemingly fragile Miao Yin City Lord.
Zuo Xiao and Luo Junxia, standing behind him, maintained expressionless faces, but deep down, they were extremely wary of the person before them.
"In Miao Yin City, fighting is forbidden. If Sect Master Zhuge has come for this matter, you may take your leave."
Miao Yin Daoist's eyes rippled like waves, and with her delicate hand stroking the ice toad in her arms, she spoke indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Zhuge Chongyang's eyes narrowed slightly, and without further words, he stood up and smiled, "If that is the case, Zhuge takes his leave!"
Zhuge Chongyang spoke courteously, but Miao Yin Daoist refused him outright. He did not persist and left as soon as he stood up.
Indeed, this is who Zhuge Chongyang is!
A Sect Master!
Unrivaled Tyrant Blade!
Zuo Xiao and Luo Junxia hurriedly followed behind, their hearts filled with trepidation, not daring to utter a sound.
Back in the City Lord Mansion, Miao Yin Daoist smiled down at the ice toad and playfully said, "The big lug is getting angry, huh!"
...
Upon exiting the City Lord Mansion.
Luo Junxia's brow furrowed slightly as he asked with dissatisfaction, "Master, shall we send someone in the shadows to directly capture those three contemptible slaves?"
"Such a plan is improper."
Hearing this, Zuo Xiao hurriedly spoke out, "Our goal is only to pressure the force behind them to reveal themselves and prevent them from gaining power. The siblings from the Lu family have had their livelihood cut off, and that person should soon emerge. In my opinion, these three siblings are of little importance; our main focus should be on the person lurking in the shadows."
The Returning to Truth Sect had targeted the three siblings from the Lu family not only because Lu Qingshan betrayed them and Lu Qingfeng and Lu Qingyu escaped as fugitives, killing their sect disciples in the process.
Even more crucially, the Returning to Truth Sect believed that there was a powerful figure backing the three.
This person stirred up trouble and specifically targeted the Returning to Truth Sect, an ill-intentioned visitor.
The Returning to Truth Sect absolutely would not allow such unstable factors to exist.
'That person,' through the siblings from the Lu family, was conducting business in Miao Yin City, such a delicate location. They also collected various ores, metals, beast tendons, and other materials, seemingly in preparation for making armor, with the intent of establishing a stronghold!
The Returning to Truth Sect did not want an enemy to grow stronger.
The Green Jade Sect also did not wish for another major power to emerge in Guangyuan County.
Therefore, they were happy to stand by and watch, even cooperating passively with the Returning to Truth Sect in hopes of luring out the person behind the Lu siblings and then reaping the benefits, like the fisherman.
The appearance of the puppet last night convinced them even more—
The Lu family siblings must have a strong figure instructing them, with a hidden force emerging from behind the scenes.
However, both the Returning to Truth Sect and the Green Jade Sect were speculating.
They completely overlooked the fact that there was no one behind the Lu family siblings, who were able to advance rapidly in such a short period and make all sorts of strange moves in Miao Yin City.
What they considered 'materials for making armor and preparation for war' were only used by Lu Qingfeng to refine Destroying Truth Type One!
One can say all assumptions were reasonable, yet all were coincidences and mistakes.
Zhuge Chongyang strode out with the bearing of a dragon and a tiger, his face expressionless, "Let this matter rest for now. Have the siblings from the Lu family placed under surveillance; we must pay attention to their every move."
The words of Miao Yin Daoist earlier had made it clear that she intended to protect the Lu family siblings. With Miao Yin Daoist's interest, even Zhuge Chongyang was not confident that he could capture the three Lu siblings within Miao Yin City.
Rather than rashly taking action and offending Miao Yin City, it was better to make meticulous plans!
In Miao Yin City, there are at least three hundred Black Armored warriors, each with the strength of at least the Fourth Level of Fetal Breathing Realm. Coupled with the City Lord of Miao Yin, whose strength is unfathomable, and who commands spiritual beasts in secret.
Even Zhuge Chongyang and the Returning to Truth Sect dare not rashly provoke a conflict with them.
"This sect is curious to see just how long your Miao Yin City can remain at ease!"
Zhuge Chongyang glanced at the city blooming like brocade and directly left through the city gates.
...
"City Lord, Zhuge Chongyang has already left the city with Zuo Xiao and Luo Junxia, only leaving behind a few disciple assassins from the Killing Body Hall to monitor outside the courtyard of the Lu siblings."
In the City Lord Mansion, a Black Armored soldier entered to report.
"Understood."

"You may withdraw."
The Daoist of Miao Yin nodded slightly upon hearing this.
The Black Armored soldier withdrew.
"It's time to meet these three youngsters."
Holding a frost toad, the Daoist of Miao Yin rose leisurely. Her steps seemed slow but were actually fast, and she left the City Lord Mansion.
...
Inside the courtyard.
Lu Qingfeng lay in the inner room, cultivating "Primordial."
Lu Qingshan and Lu Qingyu were practicing their cultivation in the courtyard.
They could not compare to Lu Qingfeng in terms of cultivation practice.
Lu Qingfeng had unparalleled experience from the game, speeding along in his advancement.
While Lu Qingshan and Lu Qingyu had to put in more effort, sitting in meditation to practice Qi Cultivation and pondering over Cultivation Techniques. For martial techniques and spells as well, they had to diligently study and practice to master them.
Half a year passed.
The siblings continued their unwavering cultivation, with guidance from Lu Qingfeng; their progress wasn't too slow.
Lu Qingshan had recently reached the Fourth Level of Fetal Breathing Realm, greatly strengthening his power.
Lu Qingyu had also reached the Third Level of Fetal Breathing Realm.
The early stages of the Fetal Breathing Realm see rapid progress, and with Lu Qingfeng's guidance coupled with a copious supply of Yellow Dragon Pills, it was only their Root Bone that caused them still to linger at the Third and Fourth Levels of Fetal Breathing Realm after more than a year of cultivation.
If they had a Root Bone score of four points, they wouldn't even need any elixir pills to reach the Fourth Level of Fetal Breathing Realm within a year.
However, the siblings were accustomed to hardship since childhood, so they didn't mind the difficulties of cultivation.
As long as their strength increased and they weren't bullied, they felt content.
On this day.
Like usual, after completing a cycle of their Cultivation Technique, they began to practice their martial skills in the courtyard. At the Mortal Stage, close combat martial arts are sometimes much more practical than spells!
Luo Smoke Step!
Burning Heart Palm!
White Jade True Technique!
Cloak Saber Technique!
True Yang Finger Skill!
These were mortal martial arts mastered by Lu Qingfeng, and through the use of Derivation Techniques to enhance them, they had long surpassed the ordinary, far exceeding the martial arts of Guangyuan County.
Even the top-notch saber technique of the Returning to Truth Sect, the Lifeless Blade Technique, paled in comparison to the Cloak Saber Technique, which had been enhanced five times.
The White Jade True Technique was an exceedingly refined technique for horizontal cultivation.
Practicing the True Sect Level Cultivation Method—"Qing Yuan Sword Technique"—their Inner Breath was already robust. Coupled with the practice of these extremely refined martial arts, the three siblings' strength far exceeded their apparent cultivation levels.
"Chirp chirp!"
While Lu Qingshan and Lu Qingyu were practicing, nine sparrow-sized larks landed in a row on the eaves, as if observing the siblings' practice.
These larks had been following the three since they were young and had grown up eating Yellow Chestnut Pills, showing great spiritual awareness.
With them in the courtyard, they could detect abnormalities faster than Lu Qingshan and Lu Qingyu.
For instance, at this moment—
