Chapter 178: Shifting Mountains
When Lou Potian and the others were leaving, all the powerful people in the prefecture, such as the Li, Bai, An, and Su Families, along with the Alchemy Union, Mercenary Union, and the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce came out to send them off.
It was a pity that Lou Qianxue had left early, and they couldn’t say farewell to her.
As for the Prefectural Governor, he had refused entry to see anyone recently.
Later on the day of the prefecture competition, a master of the Mystic Martial realm had taken Lou Xingchen to the Zhu Family in the Imperial City.
That whole day, Jiang Suying had been in tears inside the Prefectural Governor.
No matter how angry the Governor was, he could only suppress it and wait for information from the Zhu Family.
Before leaving, Lou Qianxue had passed most of her money to Lou Potian. She had just kept a million taels for herself and left on a second-grade horse. That horse had already died from exhaustion after just half a day.
Also, it died on the official route, where there were no villages or shops nearby.
Lou Qianxue recalled the map of Liuyun Prefecture. “The best route... go along the official route, take a detour through Sifang City, and reach Baiyan City. But I don’t have any horses now. I’m afraid it will take at least seven or eight days to reach my destination. What if... I directly crossed Qingyun Mountain. That way, I can reach Baiyan City in two or three days at most.”
Lou Qianxue soon made her decision after calculating some things in her mind. “I shall go through Qingyun Mountain.”
Although Qingyun Mountain was full of danger, Lou Qianxue was not afraid. She had trained in the mountains before and become familiar with the surroundings.
After exiting the official route, Lou Qianxue used the heavenly movement technique, ‘Glimpse’, that she had received from the memory of the God of War. Like a ghost, her body sprinted toward the mountain.
Lou Qianxue entered the Qingyun Mountain in the evening.
Glimpse is really a heavenly martial technique. Its extreme speed is comparable to the speed of my storm form... At this speed, I will reach Baiyan City tomorrow. It’s difficult to grasp the traces of monsters at night, and I may encounter a herd. So I shall stay over in the Qingyun Mountain for tonight.
With the Mountain River Space in her possession, Lou Qianxue did not have to watch her surroundings while sleeping. Since time passed ten times faster in the Mountain River Space, so after getting enough rest, she began cultivating.
As midnight arrived, all of a sudden—
“Wooo... Awooo!”
“Wooo!”
‘Roar!”
“Hiss... Hiss... Hiss... Hiss...”
Lou Qianxue was awakened by the co-ordinated roars of various beasts.
“Huh? What’s happening?”
Lou Qianxue left the Mountain River Space and noticed that the ground outside was shaking. At the same time, she felt that several powerful powers were colliding in the deep parts of the mountain.
The scary roars and shaking made the lower-grade beasts in the mountain range tremble in fear.
Even Lou Qianxue, who was far from it, sensed a panicky and scared feeling.
“What a scary power!”
Lou Qianxue narrowed her eyes and looked toward the depths of the Qingyun Mountain range. “Every one of these powerful forces is stronger than the four masters of the Mystic Martial realm at the prefecture competition! I didn’t expect so many powerful beasts to exist in Qingyun Mountain. Fortunately, I didn’t meet them last time. Otherwise, I’m afraid I would have died long ago. But now...”
A smile made its way to her face. Instead of fear, her heart was filled with immense curiosity.
“With the Burrowing Technique I learned from the Heavenly Sacred tree, the Glimpse technique, and the Mountain River Space, I believe that no one in the entire Tian Zhao Dynasty can beat me at escaping from danger. So, I shall go and have a look!”
