Chapter 407: Urgent
Translator: Alsey Editor: Chrissy
Dawn. The just-risen sun was bright red and was reflecting a scarlet image on the surface of the sea, forming large patches of golden powder amidst the crashing waves.
Mount Lao was exceptionally peaceful and was enshrouded in a special immortal mist. Bathing in the morning glow, the whole mountain was enshrouded in a beautiful prismatic radiance.
This region was close to the blue sea. Gazing towards the distance, one could see a vast ocean which filled one's heart with comfort and ease.
No one else had discovered Chu Feng climb the mountain. He arrived upon a silent peak wherein stood a small Taoist temple and a silver ancient pine tree.
Lin Naoi sensed him and walked out of the temple. Her face was suffused with a golden glow amidst the morning light and her hair was almost glowing. She was clad in white attire and possessed a sense of transcendence.
The two saw each other. They stood there in silence at first, but then they entered the small Taoist temple.
Chu Feng had something to ask her. It was simple and direct. He wanted to know if she was going to stand with Mu Qing and that so-called imperial dynasty of evolvers.
"It's dangerous here. Leave Mount Lao quickly." Lin Naoi glanced at him and, just as in the past, maintained an attitude of calm rationality.
…
Mu Qing awoke and saw that the grassland was full of bloody marks. The intense pain almost made her black out once again. She couldn't help but let out an ear-piercing scream.
"Ah…"
She had already lost her left arm and half of her body had been destroyed. To a beautiful lady like her, this was no different than falling into an infernal abyss. She couldn't accept this.
"Send me to the depths of Mount Lao!"
She only became sober after a while. Although she was no longer hysterical, her emotional fluctuations were fairly intense. She had suffered a direct hit and was directly crippled under the peaceful morning glow. This was worse than death for her.
Many people from Deity Biomedicals had arrived to help her stop the bleeding and dress her wounds. But what use was all of this? She had already been crippled.
She was still young and was originally a noble lady who had willing followed the prince at his side. She still had her ambitions and aspirations. But now, all of them have been shattered by a native after landing on this planet.
At this moment, her heart was full of haze as all her hopes had been dashed. She felt that the brilliant path she had paved for herself had been severed. She was no longer destined for anything.
"That native!" she screamed. Her heart was full of fury—she was actually crippled and wounded to such a state.
Some people carefully placed her on a stretcher and transported her quickly to the depths of Mount Lao. This was Mu Qing's request. She wasn't resigned to this fate and wanted to see if the prince could save her.
She wanted to ask the Prince of Great Qi to seek revenge for her and capture that native. It would be too merciful to kill him directly. She hoped to leave that native alive and torture him in the cruelest ways.
Lin Naoi stood with Chu Feng under the pine tree and repeatedly warned Chu Feng not to come again. The people from the imperial dynasty were very powerful. She felt that Chu Feng wasn't their match.
Chu Feng turned around and left. He contacted the Mastiff King's group and told them that he had helped them collected a portion of the interest. That woman had been crippled but had been left alive for now.
Later on, he quietly snuck into the no man's land and ascended the peak where Mu Qing lived. He immediately saw the jade green bamboo raft.
The essence flames of extreme yang had left some eye-catching marks upon it. The damage wasn't light and some parts of the raft were almost completely destroyed.
Chu Feng tried it out and found that as long as it was instilled with energy, it could rise into the air and fly.
This wasn't using spiritual arts to drive the raft. It could be activated just by instilling it with pure energy. This was a flying tool which went against scientific knowledge.
The jade bamboo raft could originally be shrunk to an inch in size and carried around on oneself. But now part of it had been destroyed and consequently, it could no longer be held in one's palm.
Chu Feng directly put it into his spatial bottle. This item was quite good for him. With it, he could now fly through the sky and escape into the ground.
Later on, he advanced towards the depths of Mount Lao while circulating the Thunderous Breathing Technique. He shifted his body into a state of calmness and blended into the mountains and rocks. No one could sense him.
He wanted to find out how powerful the people from the imperial dynasty really were, just what level was that imperial prince at and what they planned to do from now on.
In the depths of Mount Lao, Mu Qing was crying bitterly. Her usual calm and smiling demeanor was nowhere to be seen as she struggled to stand up from the stretcher.
People from Deity Biomedicals sent her into the folded space while Mu Qinghe stood to one side with his head lowered.
Those who had survived after passing through earth's trials could enter or exit the folded spaces freely. Just like the natives here, they were completely unaffected.
"Don't cry," The imperial prince of the Great Qi Empire spoke.
The ancient azure gold chariot was carved with the traces of time and would surge with divine radiance from time to time. It would form images of divine beasts like the white tiger, the vermilion bird, sage birds, etc
Qi Yu was clad in metallic combat attire with a purple gold crown upon his head and possessed an imposing demeanor. His calm and solemn temperament was broken as he stepped down from the chariot and held Mu Qing in his arms. His body erupted with flourishing radiance.
His eyes shot out beams of terrifying light. He began to circulate a shocking breathing technique, causing white mist to gush out from his mouth and nostrils. Even the pores on his body were doing the same, pouring all of the dense vitality Mu Qing's body.
"Your Majesty, I was on my way to deliver good news. But on the way…" Mu Qing began to cry.
"We'll discuss these things later. I'll help you treat your injuries first." Qi Yu turned around and said to his aide who was carrying a sword and paper scroll. "Bring me the medicine fluid!"
At this moment, the people had crowded around them. Many of them were furious after enquiring about the matter and wanted nothing more than to rush out of this space immediately.
But many of them were startled after hearing the imperial prince's words. An elder carrying a medicinal basket on his back whispered, "Your Majesty, this is your life-saving medicine."
"Mu Qing needs it more at the moment. Bring it here!" Qi Yu wasn't enraged but everyone was awed. He was like an eternally burning furnace—his ocean-like blood energy shook the whole mountainous region.
Those form Deity Biomedicals who had followed her in were trembling and could no longer stand straight. This originated from an inherent instinct—they prostrated on the ground, quivering.
The mountains in the region shook and a whirlwind kicked up. Great patches of forest swayed and rocked with great intensity as tens of thousands of leaves fell to the ground.
All of this happened just because Qi Yu had erupted with energy and released an ineffable aura.
At this time, not to mention those form Deity Biomedicals, even those from the Great Qi Dynasty were palpitating and some couldn't help but tremble.
On the chariot, that beautiful who was holding the divine sword and scroll brought over a large crystal ball and passed it to Qi Yu.
"Your Majesty!" Mu Qing's voice trembled.
Within the crystal ball was a bright red fluid extracted from a type of fruit. It was an extremely rare medicine. Qi Yu held the ball and opened it with a secret technique, pouring out part of its contents.
"Don't speak. Drink it," Qi Yu said in a warm tone.
As the bright red fluid flowed into Mu Qing's mouth, her body erupted with scarlet mist as a dense vitality surged from within and astonishingly extended over all the wounds on her body.
Very soon, Qi Yu sealed the crystal and put it away.
"Your Majesty, I'm willing to die for you anytime." Mu Qing choked with emotion.
"Don't speak nonsense. Your life is related to the fate of everyone here." Qi Yu consoled her.
At this moment, old with the medicinal basket, who was originally discontent, also felt relieved. He felt that the prince made the correct choice—they had to keep Mu Qing alive.
Mu Qing's condition improved after taking the red medicinal liquid. The wounds on her body began to wriggle as granulation tissue and even bones began to grow out.
She was overjoyed to the verge of tears.
"Recuperate well and everything will be fine." The imperial prince of Great Qi spoke gently. He is demeanor then became harsh and his might, intimidating as divine light erupted from his eyes. His body seemed to be surrounded a brilliant sun as he said with a cold voice, "Whoever wounds you to such a state will be destroyed in both form and spirit!"
"Your Majesty, let me cross over first. I'll cut that native down with a single blade!"
"Let me go. I'll kill him with one hand!"
At this time, two knights riding warbeasts jumped off their mounts and kneeled before the prince, awaiting his command. They were poised to go over and seek justice for Mu Qing.
"The two captains need not take this risk. In truth, he can't injure me had I not been wounded accidentally." Mu Qing spoke. She didn't want to let these powerful captains risk their lives by crossing over. If by any chance, they failed, she wouldn't be able to bear this responsibility.
The two captains stood up. One of them with a full set of armor and incisive valiance spoke, "A native dreg dares injure our people. It's unfortunate that the will of this star hasn't yet perished completely. The protection it's giving these natives is too strong!"
The imperial prince of Great Qi gestured for them to stop speaking. He glanced at Mu Qing and said, "You said you had good news for me."
"Yes, Your Majesty. I have good news to report. You'll be able to cross over very soon." Mu Qing could hardly hold back her joy. She then gave her report in a secret language.
The whole area surged with prismatic lights and concealed them. Outsiders could neither hear nor see them.
In the distant woods, Chu Feng was watching them in complete silence.
Those people were in the folded space and there were also invisible isolation domains. Add to that Chu Feng's ultimate breathing technique allowing him to merge into his surroundings, they couldn't sense him even if they were more powerful.
"They are about to cross over. Things seem urgent." Chu Feng's eyes were cold.
He had to take the initiative to prepare and make sure nothing goes wrong. This batch of people must not be allowed to enter earth—he had to find a way to eliminate them all.
Chu Feng could sense that their levels were very high, as expected of agents from an imperial dynasty. They would definitely encounter a huge calamity if they forced their way through.
"An imperial dynasty of evolvers? They dare look down on us and call us native dregs. I want to see your expressions when I eliminate you all!" Chu Feng's heart was filled with killing intent.
Later on, he saw Lin Naoi arrive and head toward the direction of the folded space.
Chu Feng turned to leave. He had no hesitations and would exhaust all means to prepare some killing methods. Once they let the people imperial dynasty, who were like wolves and tigers, into earth, it would only result in a disaster. The results would be unthinkable.
Chu Feng pondered as he walked out of Mount Lao. A battle intent diffused out from him as he thought of an idea. He had to prepare for war.
"When the time comes, let's see who will kill who!" He had made a resolute decision. The enemy was powerful and posed a dire threat, but Chu Feng wanted to start a massacre and wipe them all out.
