Captain Rat told them everything about what had happened in Moon Worship Demonic Sect. He cried while talking. “Lord Chen, Le died in such a tragic way. His head was crushed by Qiuyu, and his skull was burning.”
Zhang Ruochen still appeared to be calm. As for the Crazy Alcoholic, he couldn’t be more furious after hearing that. He grabbed Captain Rat and said, “A saint was killed by someone outside in the headquarters? This is a slap in the face to Moon Worship Demonic Sect. What was Shi Qianjue doing?”
Captain Rat felt that its saint Qi was being suppressed. It was shocked. “My cultivation has reached the state of saint, and I’m a Taigu Remain, yet I don’t even have the power to fight back. That old alcoholic is just too powerful.”
It might have been an elder from the demonic sect.
Captain Rat had great cultivation, but it wasn’t brave enough. It said with a trembling voice, “Qiu Yu is a seedling of the Divine Phoenix Tree. He might become a spiritual root and the second God in Kunlun’s Field. Whoever befriends him will be benefited a great deal in the future. Even the hierarch won’t hamper a relationship with him because of a saint.”
Gu Songzi had departed from the demonic sect a long time ago, yet he still had a strong lingering bond with the demonic sect. He said, “The demonic sect was prominent when the last hierarch reigned. Even facing Chiqing Central Empire, it’d attack them directly. Someone dared kill a saint and forced a saintess to marry him, even if he were a saint, the demonic sect would say no to that.”
Captain Rat found it shocking as it saw the two elders being so furious. Shouldn’t Zhang Ruochen be the angriest one?
However, Zhang Ruochen acted as if nothing had happened. He started to drink again.
Captain Rat said, “Lord Chen, you won’t just let it slide, will you? You should know that the saintess has had her eyes on you forever. If someone forces her to marry someone else, she might as well just die. You must know her feelings for you, right?”
Zhang Ruochen said, “Did Blackie tell you to say that?”
Captain Rat didn’t expect Zhang Ruochen to be that perceptive. It then said in a low voice, “Blackie said you’re going to have to keep your promise.”
“My promise…,” Zhang Ruochen mumbled, and then he recalled something that had happened before…
Mu Lingxi was telling him about Luo Xu and Lin Suxian, and she teared up. “Just want you to know that my hierarch might force me to marry you, and I hope that someone can also rush to Peakless Mountain for me someday. If someone did that for me, I’d be willing to die for him.”
“Zhang Ruochen, you should know that the saintess of the demonic sect is just a tool used by the hierarch for publicity, and he’d be willing to give her to a saint at any time.”
“Don’t you worry. If that day comes, there’ll definitely be someone who rushes to Peakless Mountain for you. Nobody from the demonic sect can stop him.”
…
Mu Lingxi lay on the ground. She thought that Zhang Ruochen was already dead. “If you’re dead, what’s the point of me living?”
…
“Sister Duanmu, what’re you doing?”
“Where did you go? I thought…”
“Don’t ever do anything stupid again. If I were late, even a little bit…”
“As long as you’re alive, I won’t do anything stupid.”
…
“Those from the Mu family don’t like you?”
“Please, if those elders really like me, they wouldn’t have sent me to Martial Market Academy, which is an extremely dangerous thing. If I got exposed… You know what’s going to happen to me.”
…
Zhang Ruochen was really conflicted. He mumbled, “I need to keep my promise.”
He couldn’t keep the happy life forever.
For Mu Lingxi, or for Le, he needed to go to the headquarters of the demonic sect. He needed to climb up Peakless Mountain for a promise, or an explanation.
If it weren’t for Le, Zhang Ruochen’s mother would’ve been killed by Zhang Tiangui.
Le protected Concubine Lin and brought her out of the palace of Yunwu Commandery.
Le was only a sword warrior who was suffering from emotional pain, and he was someone who didn’t care about his own life. Aside from his sword, Zhang Ruochen was his only friend.
Le was a real friend to Zhang Ruochen. Even if they hadn’t seen each other for ages, he would risk anything just to see him.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t have that many friends, yet Le was literally beaten to death. Even if he still managed to stay calm, he was already very belligerent.
After getting confirmation from Zhang Ruochen, Captain Rat couldn’t have been more excited. It yelled, “With you and lord Blackie, the saintess will be saved.”
Zhang Ruochen shot a glance at him and said, “Where is Blackie now?”
“Lord Blackie said that it would annihilate all enemies when it’s necessary,” Captain Rat said.
Zhang Ruochen knew better than everyone else that he couldn’t count on Blackie. If it could really defeat everyone else, it would’ve taken Mu Lingxi away given their friendship instead of sending Captain Rat to him.
The Crazy Alcoholic couldn’t be angrier, and he said, “I’ll follow you to Peakless Mountain, Zhang Ruochen. Those brats from the demonic sect are getting more and more disappointing. I need to teach them a lesson.”
Zhang Ruochen had much better long-term thinking than the Crazy Alcoholic. He said, “There’s no need for you to come with me. You’d better stay in Yunwu Commandery and make Six Saints to Heaven Wine.”
“Do you think I’ll be of no use?” the Crazy Alcoholic yelled.
Gu Songzi walked toward him and said, “Zhang Ruochen is right. There’s no need for you to go. Do you really think the demonic sect will make itself an enemy against the fire race and Divine Phoenix Tree? Perhaps the demonic sect will capture you and investigate you or interrogate you about where I am.”
“Shi Qianjue is a great overlord. His cultivation and ambition can’t be envisioned by us. The relationship between you two is nothing compared to Hua Saint Pills.”
The Crazy Alcoholic finally calmed himself down and said, “We both know how mighty the demonic sect is. Are we really letting Zhang Ruochen go there by himself? He’ll definitely get killed.”
“Zhang Ruochen is heaps smarter than you. How will he be killed?”
Gu Songzi shook his head and took out three yellow runes. He gave them to Zhang Ruochen and said, “I’m not very good at formations, however, I’m very proficient at making runes. These three runes should be enough to ensure your survival.”
Zhang Ruochen knew better than everyone else that Gu Songzi was very sneaky. He was just saying that because he didn’t want the Crazy Alcoholic to take any risks.
Actually, Gu Songzi also believed that Zhang Ruochen was throwing himself toward a load of dangers.
Gu Songzi managed to survive because of his caution.
It was Zhang Ruochen’s own business anyway, so there was no need for them to take any risks. Giving him the three runes was already the best Gu Songzi could offer.
“Thank you.”
Zhang Ruochen took the three protection runes.
After saying goodbye to Zhang Shaochu and Zhang Yuxi, Zhang Ruochen headed to Central Region with Captain Rat.
After two days, they arrived in Tonglu Plain. They could see the contour of that towering mountain.
“That’s Peakless Mountain,” Captain Rat said.
Peakless Mountain was gigantic. It looked more like a plateau than a mountain. Normal monks wouldn’t even be able to tell where the peak was.
Only monks with immense cultivation could see the contour of Peakless Mountain.
Captain Rat was following Zhang Ruochen. It said, “Lord Chen, let’s head to the headquarters directly?”
“Okay,” Zhang Ruochen said.
Captain Rat swallowed its saliva and said, “We’d better wait until late in the night. I know a secret portal to Peakless Mountain.”
Zhang Ruochen took a sip of his wine and said, “Were you saying you couldn’t take me to Peakless Mountain?”
“Please spare my life, Lord Chen! I still want to be in the demonic sect and work for you and Lord Blackie… I’m very loyal, and I don’t want to die yet…”
Captain Rat kneeled on the ground and kept begging. It stared at Zhang Ruochen pitifully.
“Okay. I don’t want to pester you. I’ll ask someone else to lead my way.”
Zhang Ruochen waved his hand.
“Thank you! Lord Chen!”
Captain Rat dived underground and went toward Peakless Mountain.
…
There was a city called Moon Worship City under Peakless Mountain.
It was where the disciples of Demonic Sect exchanged their pills and weapons. After ten thousand years, it became a city.
“Sister Qi, I haven’t seen you for a while.”
Qi Feiyu came here to buy some pills. After hearing that voice, she was dazed. She immediately turned around and looked to a bar. She saw a familiar but distant being.
That person had messy hair and was dressed in plain customs. However, the forces coming from him gave her great pressure.
Qi Feiyu was the daughter of the vice leader of Saintess Palace, and she used to refine in Yin and Yang Sect. She used to have a complicated relationship with Zhang Ruochen who pretended to be ‘Lin Yue.’ Also, Lin Feiyu was a saintess of Demonic Sect.
“You are, Lin Yue… Wait… You’re Zhang Ruochen?”
Qi Feiyu looked shocked as she’d never expected Zhang Ruochen to be here.
Zhang Ruochen turned around and looked to her. “Can’t believe you still remember my voice, Sister Qi. You must know why I am here, right? I want to go to the headquarters of Demonic Sect. Lead the way, sister!”
Qi Feiyu found that all the monks from Demonic Sect had disappeared. She and Zhang Ruochen were the only ones left. Obviously, she was dragged into the space domain by Zhang Ruochen.
Nobody would be able to hear her even if she screamed.
Zhang Ruochen was able to kill her like crushing a bug.
