Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 1249: Chapter 1243: Jade Mist Valley

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…”

Inside Grandhaven City, Li Tianming and Banshu Qingping had already arrived.

Banshu Qingping’s expression was peculiar. “Just how many people has your Li Clan sent?”

These ‘whoosh’ sounds were continuous transmissions. Peach wood swords, white smoke, Dark Crows…

On the journey back to Grandhaven City, there had been no fewer than thirty message exchanges.

He had long known that Azure Cloud Prefecture’s intelligence and communication networks were formidable, but he never expected them to be this frequent.

More than once, Banshu Qingping suspected that these reports included questions about whether Li Tianming had eaten breakfast.

“Our family has always believed that intelligence is one of the most crucial factors in determining success or failure.”

Li Tianming relayed the message that he had just conveniently slain a Golden Core realm great demon.

Then, putting on his smiling mask, he said, “The situation has changed. A junior of my family discovered that the Sage Master Martial Academy has been murdering people as the Blood Moon approaches.”

“Murdering people amidst the chaos?” Banshu Qingping’s expression changed.

“Yes, murdering commoners, as well as many ordinary people fleeing on the roads. Some fleeing minor sects didn’t even make it halfway out of Grandhaven Prefecture before their souls were sent to the netherworld.”

Li Tianming’s voice gradually turned cold and calm.

“Your Grandhaven Prefecture is getting stranger and stranger. The Peerless Hall hasn’t infiltrated the Sage Master Martial Academy that deeply, so this isn’t their doing.

However, we’ve seen this method and purpose of killing before; it’s very similar to how blood was seeped into the earth in the Western Frontier to forge the Blood Moon, yet it isn’t exactly the Blood Moon either.”

“How is that possible…” Banshu Qingping couldn’t believe it. “Is it possible that your family’s junior made a mistake? After all, he is just a junior.”

“We might make a mistake, but he definitely wouldn’t.”

A scoff emanated from behind the mask.

Banshu Qingping didn’t dare to argue back; there was no telling which Li Tianming had just popped out.

He said in a deep voice, “In other words, in our Grandhaven Prefecture, there is another faction secretly murdering people, imitating the methods of the Western Frontier, and their ultimate goal is also to summon an immortal.”

“You’re very smart.”

Li Tianming said eerily, “I’m becoming more and more interested in your Grandhaven Prefecture.”

Just ahead was the Prefecture Lord’s Estate. Banshu Qingping was fraught with worry.

Seeing him like this, Li Tianming offered a word of comfort.

“Don’t look so miserable. With Grandhaven City in this state and the Blood Moon looming, who knows when you might drop dead. Worrying is useless.”

“Daoist friend, could you let the little friend who eats steamed buns come back?” Banshu Qingping’s face looked terrible.

“I’m afraid he’ll be tricked by you people.”

Not long after the two entered the city, a group of cultivators hurried over to greet them, clearly having sensed their Void Refinement realm auras.

The man at the front wore a token on his waist engraved with the character for ‘Valley’.

Upon seeing Banshu Qingping return safely, a practically imperceptible flash of shock crossed his eyes.

However, how could such a minute change escape the eyes of Banshu Qingping and the current Li Tianming?

“Jade Mist Valley…”

Banshu Qingping muttered as he followed the crowd.

“Oh, your Jade Mist Valley is the most heavily infiltrated of all—half of it is basically the Peerless Hall.” Li Tianming once again demonstrated the formidable intelligence network of the Li Clan.

Banshu Qingping’s expression shifted slightly. “Half? Where did your Li Clan get this intelligence?”

“Heh, just because you ask, does that mean I have to tell you?”

“…” Banshu Qingping was left utterly speechless. The previous Li Tianming had claimed he was very honest.

…

Grandhaven Prefecture.

Jade Mist Valley.

At this moment, Li Wei was sitting on the ash of a man-sized incense burner in Jade Mist Valley.

Three half-man-sized incense sticks were burning above him.

In front of him stood numerous disciples of Jade Mist Valley, fully equipped and clearly about to execute some mission.

“Hello there, Li Chuyuan.”

Li Wei gazed into the crowd of disciples at Li Chuyuan, who was dressed in robes embroidered with Bagua array patterns.

It had to be said that Li Chuyuan truly had some skill.

He had managed to evade wave after wave of pursuit by the major factions of Azure Cloud Prefecture, and the Imperial Dynasty’s wanted posters for him hung on the walls of every major prefecture.

Just look at him: living perfectly well, and he had even put on some weight. How nice.

Li Wei shrugged. After cultivating at home for decades and mastering the Spear Dao, coming out to relax felt incredibly refreshing.

With a relaxed expression, he cursed softly, “Damn it, immortals and gods really do exist.”

The more he cultivated, the more his cursing skills seemed to grow. These decades of cultivation weren’t completely in vain.

That day in the Northern Frontier, after seeing Min Youguo and hearing the word ‘immortals and gods’, that guy surnamed Min had made it sound so casual.

But that fellow always operated in reverse.

There was absolutely nothing happening in the Northern Frontier, yet back then he had made it sound incredibly tense, only for the Northern Frontier to be completely fine.

As for the Western Frontier, the guy surnamed Min spoke of it like casual after-dinner gossip, yet a Body Integration expert playing a month-long game of pursuit and escape inside had almost fallen victim to its tricks.

Don’t be fooled by how easily he seemed to play around in the Western Frontier back then; it was entirely filled with great terrors.

It was only because he possessed spatial rules and had a plan and a target.

What if another Body Integration cultivator went to take a look? As the days passed, it would only grow more terrifying.

Grandhaven Prefecture wasn’t simple either.

The Western Frontier’s disaster hadn’t arrived yet, and the Peerless Hall hadn’t made any overt moves, but the Banshu family produced a bizarre baby, and Zhiheng discovered the Sage Master Martial Academy slaughtering commoners.

With the treacherous and unpredictable undercurrents in Grandhaven Prefecture, the Old Ancestor had no choice but to come out and take a look himself.

Gazing at Jade Mist Valley, Li Wei furrowed his brows tightly.

“Is it possible that the immortals have been hiding beside us all along, and we simply haven’t noticed?”

However, glancing at the panel before his eyes, he felt reassured.

[Family Will: 679,287]

[Family Body Integration Realm Cultivators: 3]

Looking at Li Chuyuan, who was fraught with worry within the crowd, Li Wei broke into a broad grin.

“With enough for six full-strength manifestations, my power is much stronger than before.

Including myself, we have three Body Integration experts, plus our family’s retainers. I’d like to see, even if they are immortals, what kind of waves they can possibly stir up.”
