【“Rustle, rustle…”】
【A sound came from the woods behind you.】
【Someone was approaching. They were deliberately concealing their aura and footsteps, but had accidentally revealed a few traces.】
【You frowned slightly when you realized that your divine art, “Signal Light,” had given you no warning.】
【That was rather contradictory.】
【“Sneaking around like that—could it be you entered Ancient Firmament Mountain without permission?”】
【“It’s me.”】
【A familiar voice answered. It was Ji Wuqing.】
【Along with her came the stinging smell of blood.】
【You reacted instantly. Moving as fast as lightning, you activated “Quantum Ghoststep” and appeared beside Ji Wuqing, catching her as she collapsed.】
【“Wuqing!”】
【Ji Wuqing was covered in wounds. The spirit treasure battle garment she normally wore was torn to pieces, and the purple sword she always carried at her side had been snapped in two.】
【“Cousin!”】
【When Ji Xiaosong got a clear look at her, he was so startled that he panicked completely, not knowing what to do.】
【You helped Ji Wuqing sit down, channeled divine power into her to stabilize her injuries, and took out healing pills for her to swallow.】
【Once Ji Wuqing had stabilized somewhat, she said to Ji Xiaosong,】
【“Xiaosong…”】
【“I’m here! I’m here! Cousin, tell me!”】
【“Go… go keep watch nearby. Don’t let anyone discover me… Remember, you didn’t see me tonight.”】
【“W-why?”】
【“Don’t ask! Go!”】
【“All right, all right!”】
【After Ji Xiaosong left, Ji Wuqing pulled out a small formation with trembling hands and cast it nearby.】
【The formation could, to a certain extent, block prying eyes and prevent sound from escaping.】
【“A-Dou is in trouble…”】
【Your pupils contracted, but your hands did not stop moving. You continued helping Ji Wuqing refine the medicinal energy and treat her wounds.】
【You activated the divine art “Signal Light,” which incorporated the divine ability “Premonition.” It could be understood as a special, enhanced form of spiritual sense.】
【You sensed the remnants of many divine abilities within Ji Wuqing’s body.】
【The enemy who had injured her must have been extremely powerful.】
【“What happened to A-Dou? Is he alive or dead?”】
【“I don’t know. Our base on Violet-Purple Star was discovered. The Peace Army launched a massive assault and leveled the entire base. Many people died…】
【“I fought desperately through the encirclement while searching for A-Dou, but I never found him—not even his remains…】
【“I know how much you care about A-Dou, so I fought my way out at all costs to come back and tell you the news… I think A-Dou must still be alive…”】
【“You’re too weak. Don’t speak for now.”】
【All these years, you had been concerned about A-Dou’s situation.】
【However, for the sake of protecting A-Dou and the Sparkfire Society’s base, Ji Wuqing had been unable to take you to see him.】
【She often shared news of A-Dou with you, though.】
【A hundred years had passed, and A-Dou had already become a Core Formation cultivator.】
【In fact, among people like him—children of destiny—his cultivation speed was considered rather slow.】
【But his combat strength was astonishing.】
【Ji Wuqing had told you that all the prodigies of his generation combined would still be unable to defeat A-Dou in actual combat.】
【A-Dou was practically invincible within the base.】
【Even when facing veteran experts, he could challenge a Deadland Realm cultivator who possessed multiple divine abilities while only at the Core Formation Realm. Not only would he hold his own, he would often emerge victorious.】
【There was a qualitative difference in combat power between the Core Formation and Deadland Realms. Under normal circumstances, ordinary cultivators were absolutely incapable of fighting across such a gap.】
【Moreover, those had merely been everyday sparring matches, not life-or-death battles.】
【If A-Dou fought for his life, even more of his potential would erupt, making his combat strength even more terrifying.】
【However, no matter how powerful an individual was, they could only do so much against an organized army.】
【The Peace Bureau of the Celestial River had mobilized the Celestial River Peace Army and launched a devastating strike against the Sparkfire Society’s base on Violet-Purple Star, leaving them no chance to survive.】
【But A-Dou had vanished. No one had seen him alive, yet no one had found his corpse either.】
【“A-Dou must have escaped somewhere. He’s still on Violet-Purple Star. Chen Yi, find him…”】
【“It’s more likely that he was captured alive.”】
【“Why?”】
【“‘They’ have always wanted to obtain a living human prodigy.”】
【It had been the same on Blazing Light Star.】
【When the three great sects had hunted A-Dou, they had repeatedly emphasized that they wanted him alive.】
【Ji Wuqing took a four-pointed star of emerald jade from her robes.】
【“This is my identity-identification spirit treasure. In a moment, I’ll change the aura within it to match yours. From now on, you’ll be the first hall master of the Sparkfire Society’s Violet-Purple Star headquarters…”】
【Ji Wuqing had told you before that the Sparkfire Society had two ways of developing new members.】
【The first was to raise them within the Sparkfire Society from childhood, teaching them through word and deed. Such people possessed the firmest convictions and could never become internal spies.】
【She had not told you about the second method.】
【Now you knew.】
【“You should keep this. With me here, you won’t die!”】
【You waved your hand, using the divine ability “Heaven in a Jar” to open a pocket dimension and release the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, which radiated dazzling golden light.】
【“Old Wan, stabilize her soul! If her soul scatters, I’ll hold you responsible!”】
【The Ten Thousand Souls Banner was speechless.】
【“I’m sitting in the pocket dimension, yet somehow the blame falls from the sky onto me. Sigh…”】
【After repeated efforts on your part, along with the help of some family treasure medicine that Ji Xiaosong had somehow acquired, Ji Wuqing’s life was saved.】
【With Ji Wuqing’s cultivation, once her life was no longer in danger, her wounds healed rapidly.】
【Half a month later, Ji Wuqing had recovered enough to move about.】
【“How long has it been since I returned?”】
【“Half a month.”】
【“Oh no! I have to leave the Ji family immediately!”】
【Ji Xiaosong was confused.】
【“Cousin, your injuries haven’t fully healed yet. Stay here and recuperate.”】
【“No. If I remain here, I’ll bring a great disaster upon the Ji family!”】
【Ji Wuqing did not pack much. She merely changed into a clean purple robe before preparing to leave.】
【You followed Ji Wuqing and said, “I’m coming too.”】
【“I don’t know whether my identity has been exposed. It won’t be safe for you to come with me.”】
【“If A-Dou has been captured, I’m going to rescue him.”】
【“All right! I’ll take you to the Peace Bureau!”】
【Just then, the booming of war drums echoed throughout the Ji family’s ancestral grounds.】
【Ji Xiaosong covered his ears and looked up at the sky.】
【“What’s that sound? It’s so loud!”】
【The sound of the war drums transformed into visible ripples of sound that swept in from every direction.】
【The ripples surged and vibrated without end, forming a massive hemispherical barrier that enveloped the entire Ji family ancestral grounds.】
【In the skies to the southeast, southwest, northeast, and northwest, clouds of brilliant colors stretched across ten thousand miles. Countless figures stood upon them, soldiers clad in armor and armed for battle.】
【Ji Wuqing’s long hair trembled in the wind.】
【“The Peace Army!”】
【You took a look.】
【“So these are the Peace Army? They look like heavenly soldiers and celestial generals.”】
【“How did the Peace Bureau find out so quickly that I’m a member of the Ji family? I shouldn’t have exposed my identity when I was fighting at the base…”】
