When Life Runs Out, the Fun Begins-Chapter 71 – I'm a peace-loving person; if others don't provoke me, I won't provoke them

……
After a brief rest, Ren Tianlong began repairing the flying boat, while Yun Wange started interrogating the captives with Wei Zhangang.
These people were already scared out of their wits by Mu Xiaochuan and dared not hide anything. They spilled everything they knew like beans from a bamboo tube.
The situation was just as Yun Wange had suspected. They all belonged to the Ghost Hall's subordinates, the "Black Fiend Hall," which roamed the southern regions of the Qingling Sect. The Hall Master was none other than Wu Zifeng, who had his head smashed by Mu Xiaochuan with a single strike.

Ten years ago, Yun Wange led the disciples of Yunqi Peak on an expedition and happened to stumble upon the Black Fiend Hall's main force secretly transferring resources at a hidden location. A fierce battle ensued. Although Yunqi Peak ultimately won a pyrrhic victory, severely damaging the Black Fiend Hall, they paid a heavy price: the then Vice Peak Master died in battle, the Hall Master of the Spiritual Herb Garden fell, and four Outer Sect Elders along with more than ten elite Inner Sect disciples were all sacrificed! Yun Wange herself was severely injured and took nearly a year to recover, with her cultivation making no progress since.
That battle was the greatest loss Yunqi Peak had suffered in nearly a century, forging an unending blood feud with the Black Fiend Hall!
The Black Fiend Hall also suffered heavy losses, with Wu Zifeng's trusted aides almost completely wiped out, and their base destroyed by the Qingling Sect's reinforcements. They could only flee like stray dogs, hiding their tracks. In his hasty escape, Wu Zifeng harbored resentment and secretly placed an extremely hidden tracking mark on Yunqi Peak's damaged flying boat, allowing him to control it every time it was activated.
Over the years, the Black Fiend Hall secretly rebuilt its strength. Last night, they noticed unusual activity from the flying boat, heading straight for their base. Wu Zifeng, knowing that Yunqi Peak only had Yun Wange at the Eighth Level of Foundation Establishment and Shen Jinglan at the Seventh Level, and that Yunqi Peak always left one person to guard, thought it was a heaven-sent opportunity for revenge! He immediately gathered all available forces and even hired the Ninth Level Foundation Establishment old poison master, who happened to be wandering in the area, to assist, setting up a forbidden air lock spiritual array to annihilate the Yunqi Peak members in one fell swoop, avenging the past!
Who would have thought... man proposes, but heaven disposes. Yun Wange had unknowingly broken through to the Ninth Level of Foundation Establishment, and the Vice Sect Master was also aboard the flying boat, not to mention the monstrous Mu Xiaochuan with his overwhelming combat power! In the end, they faced total annihilation!
After hearing the captives' confessions, Yun Wange's face was frosty, her eyes filled with killing intent! If not for Ren Tianlong and Mu Xiaochuan turning the tide, they would have been completely wiped out today!
"Take all these scum back to the sect and hand them over to the Law Enforcement Hall for punishment!" Ren Tianlong said coldly.
Yun Wange and Mu Xiaochuan ignored him, and the three disciples avoided looking at Ren Tianlong.
"Peak Master Yun, I think we should return to the sect first," Ren Tianlong said awkwardly. "This victory, annihilating the Black Fiend Hall and capturing the notorious old poison master, is a great achievement! The sect will surely reward us heavily!"
Yun Wange was tempted but still looked at Mu Xiaochuan.
"We haven't even started our adventure yet, and you want to go back? What a joke." Mu Xiaochuan jumped in to object, "If you want to go back, Vice Sect Master, go ahead. I don't want any credit; you can have it all."
"Yeah, yeah, we still want to explore the Fallen Star Plains," Ye Lingxuan quickly chimed in, eager for new adventures.
Leng Yunjian and Wei Zhangang didn't dare to directly oppose but also agreed, "Yes, it's all thanks to the Vice Sect Master's wisdom and power; we wouldn't dare claim credit."
"Alright," Ren Tianlong sighed, "let's deal with this warship and the captives first."
He took out a specially crafted communication jade talisman from the sect, contacted a nearby Qingling Sect outpost, provided the coordinates, and ordered the outpost leader to bring people to escort the Black Fiend Hall warship and all captives back to the sect, and the great victory.
After making arrangements, Ren Tianlong looked at Mu Xiaochuan and smiled, "Shall we continue our training?"
Mu Xiaochuan was surprised, "Vice Sect Master, you're not going back to the sect?"
Ren Tianlong laughed heartily, "Such an exciting adventure, and you think I'd miss it? No way!"
The group laughed heartily, boarded the now fully repaired Yunqi Peak flying boat, set a new course, and headed towards the mysterious and ancient battlefield ruins—the Fallen Star Plains!
The flying boat once again broke through the clouds, turning into a stream of light, disappearing into the horizon.
However, just as the flying boat hadn't flown a hundred miles away.
The group once again boarded Yun Wange's flying boat, adjusted their direction, and prepared to continue towards the mysterious ancient battlefield ruins—the Fallen Star Plains.
However, just as the flying boat started, it hadn't flown a hundred miles.
Mu Xiaochuan suddenly spoke up, "Hey! Sister Yun, Brother Ren. We've just been through a fierce battle, and we need to rest to recover our spiritual power. How about... we first go to Qinglan County City to recover? I've heard it's the largest cultivation city in the southeastern region of the Xiaoque Dynasty, bustling with life, full of rare treasures and unique customs, sure to broaden our horizons! This will greatly benefit us in preparing for the 'Dao Discourse Gathering' and expanding our perspectives!"
Go to Qinglan County City?!
Everyone was taken aback.
Ren Tianlong's mouth twitched slightly, thinking: Are you here to train or to play?
Yun Wange actually just wanted to accompany Mu Xiaochuan for a change of scenery, thinking: Visiting Qinglan County City seems... quite nice? She hadn't been to such a bustling place in a long time.
"Yay! We're going to the county city to play! Awesome!" Ye Lingxuan was the first to cheer, having long yearned for the legendary Qinglan County City, full of anticipation.
Leng Yunjian's cool eyes also showed a hint of expectation. Wei Zhangang smiled honestly, indicating he would follow the arrangements.
Thus, under Mu Xiaochuan's suggestion and everyone's eager anticipation, this elite training group, tasked with preparing for the "Dao Discourse Gathering," once again deviated from their planned course, turning the ship towards the metropolis of cultivation—Qinglan County City!
Under Yun Wange's control, the Qingling Sect's flying boat sliced through the sky, speeding towards the east. After the thrilling ambush, counterattack, and plunder, the boat was filled with a joyful atmosphere and anticipation for the unknown journey.
Ren Tianlong took the initiative to introduce, "Qinglan County City is one of the three major cultivation cities in the southeastern region of the Xiaoque Dynasty, vast in scale, densely populated, with cultivators coming and going. The city's forces are complex, mainly led by the City Lord's Mansion, the three major cultivation families (Ouyang, Murong, Zhuge), the Artifact Refiners' Guild, and the Alchemists' Guild."
"Qinglan County City is indeed a great place to broaden one's horizons," Yun Wange said softly, gazing at the distant horizon. "But the city is a mix of good and bad, with many rules. Since we're new here, we should be cautious."
Ren Tianlong nodded, speaking seriously, "Exactly. Especially you young ones, remember not to cause trouble. Qinglan County City is not like the sect; private fights are forbidden. If there's a conflict, it must be ed to the City Guard or resolved at the Dueling Platform. The city's forces are deeply rooted, so we should avoid conflicts with them." His words were mainly directed at Mu Xiaochuan, as his gaze involuntarily drifted towards him.
Mu Xiaochuan rubbed his nose and chuckled, "Don't worry, Brother Ren. I'm a peace-loving person; if others don't provoke me, I won't provoke them."
