Asura Mad Emperor

Seeing the Red Luan, its mouth wide open with hunger, it flapped its wings, ready to swallow the creature in one gulp, but Qinchuan, with his quick eyes and hands, recognized the origin of the spiritual butterfly and grabbed hold of the Red Luan.

"Greedy glutton, you can't eat this thing," he told it.

The Red Luan, gluttonous by nature, rarely saw a spiritual butterfly so rich and pure in spiritual energy, only to have Qinchuan stop it.

Instantly annoyed, the Red Luan chirped discontentedly twice and then, somewhat unwillingly, flew back to rest on Qinchuan's shoulder, its eyes locked on the spiritual butterfly, barely concealing its greed with a silent protest.

As it turned out, this spiritual butterfly was called a 'Linglong Dream Butterfly,' a unique spirit beast used by the members of the Exquisite Pavilion to transmit information.

The Linglong Dream Butterfly, raised exclusively by the Exquisite Pavilion, could carry messages to a specified person according to its master's will, even crossing oceans and traversing the void to deliver the message. Enjoy new stories from My Virtual Library Empire

It was extremely convenient for transmitting messages.

In fact, this spiritual butterfly was not only top-notch in speed and finding people to deliver messages, but also in self-preservation. Even if Qinchuan hadn't intervened, it would naturally have avoided being devoured by the Red Luan.

Indeed, it was because of these remarkable Linglong Dream Butterflies that the Exquisite Pavilion had become the largest intelligence network on the Divine Wilderness Continent, known as the foremost pavilion under the heavens.

Now, seeing the Linglong Dream Butterfly appear here, Qinchuan knew at once that good news must have come from Yu Qilin.

Qinchuan immediately brought out a trace of True Qi in his palm, covering the butterfly, which then flew towards the center of his hand and gracefully landed there.

Once the spiritual butterfly settled onto his palm, waves of Dao patterns rippled out, seemingly conveying some information.

The next moment, a smile spread across Qinchuan's face.

"Perfect!"

Overjoyed, Qinchuan felt even the weariness in his soul dissipate at that instant. He patted the Red Luan, saying, "You glutton, let's go to Tianqing City!"@@novelbin@@

It turned out that Qinchuan had just received a message from the spiritual butterfly.

Yu Qilin had already located the descendant of another lineage of the Gongshan Clan.

That lineage of the Gongshan Clan still carried the Heaven-Piercing Five Elements Spirit Root that he had left behind, a key treasure for awakening his Innate Body.

He had been deliberately suppressing his realm at the Meridian Opening Realm Nine Layers, waiting for the awakening of the Innate Body before making a breakthrough. The complementing effects would maximize the potential of the Innate Body.

Now, with news of the descendant of another lineage of the Gongshan Clan, how could he not be excited? Therefore, he couldn't afford to rest.

He prepared to set off back to Tianqing City at once.

The Red Luan was still sulking over its lost treat, brooding on Qinchuan's shoulder.

It ignored Qinchuan's words.

Seeing this, Qinchuan became frustrated, took out a Myriad Years Flame Grass from the Black Lotus, and threw it over. The Red Luan's eyes lit up, its expressive big eyes whirling with desire.

The frustration on his face vanished in an instant as he swallowed the Flame Grass in one gulp.

After feeling satisfied, he then transformed, obediently reverting to his original form.

Qinchuan rode the Red Luan soaring into the sky, as if to leave, immediately drawing the attention of everyone from the Burning Heaven Sect.

At this time, Qinchuan was well-known within the Burning Heaven Sect, and the Red Luan he sat upon was imposing, having shown outstanding prowess during the day when the sects besieged Burning Heaven.

Now seeing Qinchuan riding the Red Luan away, many elders and disciples called out loudly, "Supreme Elder, where are you headed this time?"

Qinchuan had once stood up to a Quasi-Emperor elder and saved the Burning Heaven Sect from a crisis; naturally, everyone was reluctant to see him go.

Chi Hai, Chi Shan, and others also rushed into the skies, stopping three yards from Qinchuan, bowing and asking, "Young Master Qin, where are you heading? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"

Shi Hun, Lin Qingtian, and other elders also flew up to retain Qinchuan, urging him to stay at the Burning Heaven Sect for a few more days.

Though Shi Hun and Lin Qingtian had some personal grievances with Qinchuan, after he single-handedly killed two Quasi-Emperors and buried tens of thousands at Fusang Mountain, they were now completely in awe of him, both respectful and fearful, no longer daring to harbor any schemes against him. Their words showed genuine sentiment, without a trace of pretense.

Qinchuan, of course, wasn't going to hold a grudge against them either.

With a wave of his hand, he signaled everyone to dispense with formalities and replied, "The matters here are concluded, staying any longer serves no purpose. Now that Chi Hai has broken through to the Great Emperor Realm, even the Jiuxiang Ancient Country wouldn't dare to lightly entertain thoughts of targeting the Fiery Sky Lineage again."

His main purpose for coming to the Burning Heaven Sect was for the Flame Stones and to collect the Innate Water and Sword Intent Amber owed by the Heavenly Sword Sect and Red Blood Sword Sect.

Helping Chi Hai was just an incidental act. Now that everything was settled, there was no need for him to stay any longer. Most importantly, he was eager to find out the whereabouts of the Heaven-Piercing Five Elements Spiritual Root.

At this point, Qinchuan seemed to remember something, and a jade slip flew from his chest into Chi Hai's hand. He said, "My return to the Lower Realm this time is to seek certain treasures. You of the Burning Heaven Sect should keep an eye out for these Spiritual Medicines. Should you find any, you can contact me through the spirit butterflies."

Now that Qinchuan's Innate Body had awakened, he still lacked some spiritual medicinal treasures. Qinchuan could employ the Burning Heaven Sect in searching for these remaining medicines. While he didn't have much hope, it still provided an extra chance.

Qinchuan had left Exquisite Pavilion's spirit butterflies with the Burning Heaven Sect, precisely so they could easily contact him in the future.

Qinchuan paused before adding, "Also, whether it was the ambush on Chi Hai or the siege on the Fiery Sky Lineage, although it was overtly orchestrated by the Jiuxiang Ancient Country, behind the scenes there was a force called Netherworld Hall, likely targeting Divine Severing Cliff within the Refining Spirit Valley. They may have failed this time, but there's no telling what scheme they'll employ next. From now on, set Refining Spirit Valley as a forbidden area, with no one allowed to enter the valley."

Netherworld Hall had schemed for forty-nine years, with the Nine Great Clans and two Quasi-Emperors simultaneously knocking on their door, clearly illustrating the importance they placed on Divine Severing Cliff.

Having suffered a significant defeat, they were certain not to give up and would surely find other ways to get close to Divine Severing Cliff.

Even before, Qinchuan did not know that Divine Severing Cliff harbored other secrets. Yet, since it was the place where he and Ling'er first met, Qinchuan would not allow outsiders to disturb it, let alone now that he knew there might still be secrets hidden atop Divine Severing Cliff. He would never allow Netherworld Hall's vermin to defile it.

At this point, Shi Hun's face turned red with shame, since he had initially insisted on forcing his way to Divine Severing Cliff and had even clashed with the Second Elder, ending up slapped out of the Refining Spirit Valley by the Red Luan.

He immediately answered loudly, "Shi Hun will diligently follow the Supreme Elder's orders. From now on, Refining Spirit Valley shall be the forbidden land of the Burning Heaven Sect. If anyone dares to step one foot into the valley, I, Shi Hun, will be the first to spare them no mercy."

Qinchuan simply smiled, saying nothing more. He knew Shi Hun, although slightly covetous of treasures, was still devoted to the Burning Heaven Sect; otherwise, he would have turned traitor during the Jiuxiang Ancient Country's attack on the sect.

After giving his instructions, Chi Hai and the others nodded in agreement. Qinchuan then patted the Red Luan's wings beneath him.

The Red Luan understood and spread its wings, shooting out instantly, transforming into a rainbow light that disappeared into the sky.
