Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Bam –

The space shattered and that clan’s leader walked through the cracks.

He swept his gaze across the scene and saw Bull Bean holding onto Number 327 who was unconscious.

“Huh?”

His face instantly turned gloomy.

He lifted his arm and clenched his fist.

Bam –

An explosive power wrapped around Bull Bean, wanting to take away Number 327.

Bull Bean used all her strength to hold onto Number 327 and her Great Dao Golden Armor appeared.

Before Qin Yu left, he personally handed Number 327 to her, and he told her that until he came back, Number 327 was not to go anywhere.

Of course Bull Bean was unwilling to let go!

“Old Ancestor, save me!” she screamed at the top of her lungs.

Bull Dingtian’s expression turned gloomy and he punched outwards, knocking that clan’s leader away and sending him flying.

“Clan Leader, what are you trying to do?”

That clan’s leader looked even uglier and he said in a cold voice, “I should be asking you that! Why is my clan’s Number 327 in your hands?”

His eyes were shooting daggers and he continued, “Or, Bull Dingtian, are you thinking of harming my clan’s disciple and snatching the Great Dao in her body?”

He stepped forward.

Bom –

Murderous intent flowed out of his body, and the terrifying aura of a True King swept across all directions.

Bull Dingtian frowned and looked at Bull Bean who was holding onto Number 327.

It was indeed a member of that clan!

Regarding this matter, he was indeed being a bit unreasonable. He thought for a while before saying, “Bull Bean, what’s the matter with her?”

Bull Bean could tell straight away what her Old Ancestor was thinking and she directly shook her head, “It was Zhou Huan who passed her to me. Before he comes back, I am not allowed to pass her to anyone!

“Even if I die, I will not let go!”

Bull Dingtian immediately felt a headache coming on, and when he looked at the determination in Bull Bean’s face, he laughed bitterly and said, “Young Lady, please calm down. I didn’t ask you to give her to someone else.”

A brilliance shone in his eyes and he continued, “And who is this Zhou Huan that you’re talking about? I’ve never heard you mention him before!”

Tears immediately fell from Bull Bean’s eyes. “Zhou Huan…Zhou Huan…he saved my life. When we were in Sky Falling Mountain, those baddies all wanted to kill me. It was only because of Zhou Huan that I was able to stay alive until now! Old Ancestor, quickly think of a way to save him. Just now, Zhou Huan was captured by those two people using a giant ring. Now, I don’t know where they went.”

As she spoke, more and more tears rolled down her face.

She was truly very worried!

As Bull Dingtian listened to what she said, the corners of his lips started to twitch. He thought to himself, ‘You smelly little brat, use your brain if you’re going to come up with an excuse. Do you really think I’ve become senile?’

I’ve already lent you the Great Dao Golden Armor. You are probably in trouble now because you were either blind or sick of living.

Save you? I think you’ve been trying to save him!

Indeed, this old man had lived for many years and was very good at analyzing the situation. He had guessed it quite right.

Zhou Huan…

Bull Dingtian repeated this name and committed it to his memory. The young lady wore her heart on her sleeve, and he could clearly see the anxiety and worry she was feeling.

Where did this bastard come from and what capabilities did he have to steal our young lady’s heart?

He narrowed his eyes and looked at his surroundings. Uncle Bull, who was hiding at the corner, rushed over and bowed, “Greetings, Old Ancestor!”

Bull Dingtian asked, “Old Bull, what happened exactly?”

Uncle Bull inched closer to Bull Dingtian and whispered something to him. He knew what the Old Ancestor wanted to know.

“That’s what happened. Earlier on, Young Lady had no recollection of this person. I examined him on the ferry and I got nothing…however, now it seems that I’ve been fooled. That bastard hid his identity very well!”

Bull Dingtian was expressionless as he considered whether or not this Zhou Huan could be related to that being.

His conclusion was that it was very likely!

This made him feel quite helpless.

He rubbed his face, looked at Bull Bean, and forced a smile, “Young Lady, don’t worry. If you want to keep her, then keep her…”

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by an angry voice, “Bull Dingtian, don’t cross the line! I’m not interested in the internal affairs of the Bull Family, but Number 327 belongs to my clan. Pass her to me now!”

He had to find out what exactly happened.

Since Heavenlifting Master ignited his own dao foundation and True King Qiongji took action as well, there must be something else behind this. However, Number 327 was completely fine and she was right here, which meant that those two people were not after her.

What were they trying to do then? Were they stirring up trouble just because they had nothing better to do?

It was impossible!

Who would stir trouble to the point where they would ignite their own dao foundation? Did they not want to live anymore? Furthermore, the Thirteenth’s Floor Boundary Ring was not an object that could be used easily. Every use required one to exhaust a large amount of resources.

There was something wrong with all this. There must be something wrong!

Bull Dingtian turned around and said, “Clan Leader, do not be rash. Number 327 is right here; I will not do anything to her. The problem now is that she was given to us by Zhou Huan. Members of my old Bull Family have always kept their promises. Since we’ve made a promise, we will only return this person to Zhou Huan. As for what Clan Leader wants to do afterwards, it is up to you. I definitely will not interfere!”

That clan’s leader stepped forth abruptly.

Bull Dingtian scoffed and reached out his arm. The Great Dao Golden Armor was recalled to him and directly integrated with his body, “Old Bull, take care of Young Lady!” His vigor and power surged to match with his opponent and he wore a cold expression on his face, “Clan Leader, are you sure you want to fight with me right now?”

Bom bom bom –

When the invisible auras of two True Kings collided with each other, it resulted in an enormous reverberation.

That clan’s leader’s face turned ashen and he wanted to take action very badly.

However, evidently, Bull Dingtian had struck at his achilles heel. Number 327 was right here. If he fought an earth-shaking battle with Bull Dingtian, it was very likely that she would be impacted.

Taking a deep breath and letting it out, the clan leader said, “Fine! I will take a step back for now and let you guys take care of Number 327! However, let me say this first. If anything happens to her while she is in your hands, I swear on my Great Dao that I will not let you off easily!”

The coldness on Bull Dingtian’s face instantly disappeared. He smiled and nodded, “No problem. I can guarantee that she will be safe.” He then looked at his surroundings and added, “I believe that no one would dare to steal a person who is under my protection.”

Everyone fell silent.

Even though everyone was fearful of Bull Dingtian’s strength, they would never admit it directly because they had reputations to uphold.

Of course, there was another important reason for this – what exactly was the source of all these events today?

What exactly were True King Qiongji and Heavenlifting Master doing? Even after finding that clan’s Number 327, they did not do anything.

And where did that Zhou Huan come from? No one had heard of him before. Why did Heavenlifting Master and Qiongji use their Boundary Ring to bring him into the Bounded Void Space?

There were too many question marks.

The other True Kings were waiting. They were waiting for the curtains to fall, and once the truth came to light, they would then make their decisions on what to do.

Bull Dingtian made use of these thoughts that they had to agree to the clan leader’s conditions.

Otherwise, he would not be so silly to protect Number 327.

“Old Ancestor!”

Bull Bean ran over and pulled at his sleeve, “Save him, quickly, save him! Didn’t you hear what I said just now?”

Bull Dingtian laughed bitterly, “Young Lady, that ring you talked about just now was the Thirteenth Floor’s Boundary Ring. Once used, it can instantly freeze a portion of space and pull it into the Bounded Void Space. Now, no one is able to find where the Boundary Ring is. We can only wait for them to come out themselves.”

“Ah!” Bull Bean wailed and her face was full of despair.

In her opinion, even though Zhou Huan was imperceptible and managed to get Sky Falling Mountain’s Great Dao, how could he go against True King Qiongji and Heavenlifting Master by himself?

Was there even a possibility of him returning?

When she thought about how Zhou Huan might die and the fact that what he said just now might have been his last goodbye, she felt as if a knife had sliced through her heart. Tears immediately formed in her eyes, making her vision blurry.

Bull Bean did not know why she was so upset either.

“Don’t cry, don’t cry!” Bull Dingtian was at a loss for what to do. He could only smile bitterly and watch helplessly as Bull Bean cried heartbrokenly. After thinking for a bit, he waved his sleeve and directly carved out a small world that enveloped the both of them within.

“Young Lady, don’t cry. I’m going to ask you something and you just have to answer it truthfully.”

Bull Bean was crying so hard that she could not speak properly. “He…he’s already…dead…what…what more…what more is there to ask…”

Bull Dingtian slapped his forehead and said, “I don’t think Zhou Huan would die that easily. But before that, you have to tell me what happened exactly!

“Was Sky Falling Mountain’s Great Dao taken by that little brat, Zhou Huan?”

When he saw Bull Bean nod her head, he felt a certainty in his heart.

There was no running away now. That brat was eighty-percent likely to have been sent by that being.

Looking at the anticipation in Bull Bean’s eyes, Bull Dingtian rubbed his face and added, “I can’t tell you the reason why, but it is highly unlikely that the Zhou Huan who you are talking about will die. Rest assured!”

Bull Bean’s eyes started to shine. “Really? Old Ancestor, you’re not lying to me?”

Bull Dingtian nodded his head and sighed a breath of relief internally. Indeed, when a daughter is of age, it is hard to keep her by one’s side. “I’ve doted on you for so many years, but I’ve never seen you this worried before.”

A sour aura filled the air.

Bull Bean’s face reddened. “Old Ancestor, what are you saying? You are so powerful, how could anything happen to you…” However, there was a smile on her face.

Zhou Huan was fine!

She trusted her Old Ancestor’s words.

“Old Ancestor, when can he come out?”

Bull Dingtian shook his head. “I’m not sure about that.”

A brilliance shone from the depths of his eyes. He, too, was unsure what that being was trying to do.

Heavenlifting Master, who had ignited his dao foundation, and Qiongji…those were two True Kings. With her current condition, how could she suppress two True Kings?

As for Zhou Huan…hmph, little brat. He most likely changed his physical appearance to hide from True Kings. Other people were unable to do something like that, but because of that being, it was possible.

Bull Dingtian had already guessed what happened in Sky Falling Mountain, but he was not very optimistic about Qin Yu.

So what if he had gotten the True King Great Dao?

Even though it was already in his hands and he could become a True King, he needed time to refine it and absorb it before breaking through step by step. It wasn’t something that could be achieved overnight.

Simply put, even though Qin Yu had the Great Dao, in front of a True King, he was still a useless and weak chicken.

What exactly was that being’s goal?

……

Qin Yu also wanted to know the answer to Bull Dingtian’s question, so he directly asked, “Rourou, what are you trying to do?”

Heavenlifting Master’s aura could not be concealed from Qin Yu. With one glance, he could tell that it was ‘Sun Changqing’ whom he had met before.

Even though he had not interacted with True King Qiongji before, since these two people were joining hands now, they were naturally in cahoots with each other.

Therefore, it was not difficult to conclude that there was a problem with Heavenlifting Master’s body – Rourou did this on purpose!

With her capabilities, she definitely would not fall into Heavenlifting Master’s schemes. It was even more unlikely that she would only give him a reminder right when these two people took action against him.

This also meant that everything that was happening now was part of a deliberate plan from Rourou to lure both of them here!

Rourou’s voice rang in his head, “You’re right. I lured them here on purpose. Even though Sky Falling Mountain’s Great Dao can resist a True King, you can’t just refine it like that. You need some fuel to get rid of the bad parts and only absorb the good parts of it.”

Qin Yu almost fainted when he heard this!

Sister, my dear sister!

True Kings, these are two genuine True Kings, and you’re calling them fuel? Are you trying to burn me alive and turn me into ashes?
