Chapter Fifteen: First Hearing of the Elegant Emperor's Canon
"Ah!"
As soon as he stepped out of his own front door, Ling Qingyan couldn't help but let out a sigh.
After a lot of persuasion, she finally broke the idea of leaving Moyun City with her mother. In Ling Qingyan's heart, warmth flashed with a hint of helplessness at the same time.
It occurred to him that today was the day when "Shuī Yùnér", the flower queen of Yí Xiāng Gé, would be coming out. Líng Qīng Yuàn's footsteps involuntarily came to a stop, and he immediately turned around and headed in the direction of his right hand.
Yi Xiang Ge is just in that direction!
His mind no longer held the worries of his previous trip to Yixiang Pavilion. After witnessing the dispute between the Nan Gong and Mu Rong families that day, Ling Qingyan was no longer surprised by the appearance of a Purple-level warrior in Moyun City.
In two lifetimes as a human, Ling Qing's temperament was even better than his father Ling Ao.
What's destined to come will come, might as well be carefree about it!
………
"Has Shui Gu Niang left 'Yi Xiang Ge'?"
"This, why did Shui Niang walk away? Did Li Laoban do something to make her disgusted? Hmph! Let's go ask Li Laoban."
"The Water Girl left, and it was hard to hear that heavenly melody again..."
"Go back, come tomorrow and see two big flower girls appearing at the same time, haha! This is not common..."
"Hum! Those two combined aren't even a match for Water Girl!"
As I approached the vicinity of Yixiang Pavilion, I saw a crowd of people dispersing from the entrance of Yixiang Pavilion, with the sound of their voices echoing in my ears.
"Leaving?" Ling Qing's eyebrows slightly furrowed, but his footsteps didn't stop, and soon he arrived at the entrance of Yixiang Pavilion.
"Due to a family matter, Shuǐ Gūniáng will be leaving Yí Xiāng Gé from now on. Tonight's event is also cancelled and Yí Xiāng Gé will be closed for the day. Gentlemen, Yí Xiāng Gé will resume normal business tomorrow. To make up for today's disappointment, two other top courtesans will perform together tomorrow. We look forward to your patronage!"
Ling Qingyan couldn't help but pause for a moment as he casually glanced at the big red notice posted on the gate of Yi Xiang Ge.
At the same time, it also occurs to me from the bottom of my heart...
Is Shui Yun'er's departure a sign that the real storm in Mo Yun City is about to begin?
At such a young age, a purple-level warrior came to this remote small town of Huahua as the "Huajie". If it is said that she has no intentions whatsoever, Ling Qingyan absolutely does not believe it!
"Hmm!"
Suddenly, a cold hum burst forth from a short distance away, interrupting Ling Qingyan's train of thought.
"Today I heard that the most popular courtesan of Moyun City's Yixiang Pavilion is going to come out, we originally wanted to join in the excitement, but now... it's really unlucky!"
A young man in a long blue gown looked at the big red notice on the gate of Yixiang Pavilion, his face extremely gloomy.
"Come on, Xiao Dao. This so-called Water Girl has been blown out of proportion by the people of Moyun City, I don't even know if she's as charming as the girls in our Mo family's 'Wang Qing Lou'!" A grey-robed youth standing next to the blue-robed youth spoke with a tone full of skepticism.
Moisturizer?
Ling Qing's eyebrows furrowed slightly before relaxing, recalling the several major families of the Qin State that Second Elder had mentioned before.
Among them is the Mohist school!
The Mo family, with a history of thousands of years, is one of the top families in the Great Qin Kingdom, controlling all private salt businesses around the kingdom.
If some families are purely famous for their martial prowess, then this Mo family is famous for its incredibly vast wealth!
In the Great Qin Empire, it has been passed down for a thousand years and has monopolized the private salt business around the Great Qin Empire for a thousand years. The wealth of the Mo family can be said to be rich enough to rival a country...
Some people have also targeted the wealth of the Mo family, wanting to take advantage of them, but they all suffered heavy losses. The surface of the wealthy and powerful Mo family's wealth is backed by a strong and powerful force that is not inferior to its wealth.
Otherwise...
How can Mo Family protect such a wealth that is so enviable? How can they stand firm on this mainland of Chong Wu, where martial arts are revered as the highest power?
"I didn't expect that this time, the Mo family would also send someone," watching the two people from the Mo family walk away side by side, a bitter smile appeared on Ling Qingyan's face.
The addition of the Mo family has made the water in this city even murkier!
"Little Knife, do you think we can get that thing this time? This time, Qin Wangfu is also..."
The figures of the two Moists grew farther and farther away, and the voice of the young man in gray robes also became increasingly indistinct.
"Huh?"
When the youth in grey robes seemed to have mentioned their purpose for coming to Moyun City, Ling Qingyan's eyes lit up, and then his mind stirred, his consciousness extending from the sea of consciousness, sweeping towards the two Mo family members.
Green Intermediate! Green Advanced!
Having investigated the cultivation of the two Mo family members, Ling Qingyan suddenly quickened his pace and followed them from a distance.
As a green-level warrior, Ling Qingyan was confident that he would never be discovered following the other person as long as he was careful!
………
In the dim night, three figures walked slowly in a line of two in front and one behind.
"I don't know either! After all, this time, the leaders of each force are all purple-level warriors..."
"Even if they are all purple-level warriors, there is still a distinction between the strong and the weak. This time we have come with three elders, and he is a mid-level purple warrior. Compared to the two from the Nan Gong family and the Mu Rong family, he is much stronger."
"Hmph! The Nangong family, the Murong family? They think they can contend for that thing too..."
"But, Xiao Dao, you said that thing is really that mysterious? The Great Elder actually took such an interest in it! You know, our Great Elder was already a Zi-level late-stage warrior decades ago..."
Upon hearing this, Ling Qingyan was also taken aback.
What is it? It's actually something that can interest a Martial Artist of the Zi Grade Later Stage!
"Mysterious? How can it be just mysterious? That's the secret book left behind by 'Yong Huang' from the 'Three Emperors and Five Sovereigns' of 10,000 years ago! Yong Huang... a powerful being of 10,000 years ago! It's said that in the 'Yong Huang Scripture', it even records Yong Huang's insights on becoming a powerful being!"
"No wonder..."
Moreover, legend has it that the Emperor Yong was not an ordinary top-level warrior ten thousand years ago... Ten thousand years ago, martial arts were flourishing, and many top-level warriors emerged. At that time, top-level warriors were not as rare as they are now. It is said that Emperor Yong once killed more than a dozen top-level warriors in a head-on battle without suffering any injuries.
Hiss!
Upon hearing his companion's account, the youth in grey robes suddenly drew in a cold breath.
Wow!
At the same time that the youth in grey robes was shocked, Ling Qingyan's figure also moved, entering a small alley to the side.
"Ah, Yong Huang! The Yong Huang Canon... So that's how it is."
Ling Qingyan stopped tracking Mo family's two people since he already knew the purpose of various major forces.
Yong Huang is a high-ranking martial artist, and Ling Qingyan also knew this from the brief account of the "Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors" in ancient history tens of thousands of years ago, and didn't find it strange.
I didn't know that Emperor Yong had left behind the "Yong Huang Dian" and it has been passed down to this day, and even in our own Moyun City!
As for what was behind the young man in green, Ling Qingyan didn't quite believe it!
A top-level strongman clashed head-on with over a dozen other top-level strongmen and annihilated them without suffering any damage...
Is it possible?
PS: If you're still comfortable with what you've read so far, I'd appreciate it if you could spare your recommendation tickets for Totem instead! It's really tough being a new author with a new book.
