Chapter 1362 Cloud Dream Reservoir

Whoosh!

Lin Xun shot up into the sky and spread his spirit sense to cover every corner of the city.

Countless sounds rang out: the sound of wine cups clinking, of people chatting and eating, of vehicle wheels rolling on the ground...

All the liveliness and ways of life in this huge city were reflected back to him through his spirit sense, but he didn’t find anything that he was looking for.

He returned to the yard and carefully scrutinized the surroundings. He found that there wasn’t any trace of intrusion on the restrictive rune array that he had laid out.

In the end, he looked at the tragic corpse of Meng Qiujing and speculated that the man had died to some sort of backlash.

“Master, it’s because he said that name. It triggered a forbidden spell in his body and resulted in a backlash that wiped out his soul.” Little Silver swept out from Meng Qiujing’s mind sea with a conclusion.

Baqi!

Lin Xun certainly would not forget this name.

It was a Quasi-Emperor who came from a place called Yin Star Sea in the Absolute Yin Ancient Domain. He had raised and trained Yun Qingbai and also personally led the massacre of the Lin Family!

Meng Qiujing and Yun Qingbai were just pawns after all.

After a moment of silence, Lin Xun waved his sleeve. Meng Qiujing’s corpse swiftly turned into ashes and scattered with the wind.

Little Silver asked, “Master, what should we do with this other person?”

“Spare his life,” said Lin Xun casually. “He is Meng Qiujing’s son. He’ll definitely be useful in the future.”

Little Silver nodded, then grabbed the unconscious Song Qingyun and flew off.

Sitting alone in the courtyard, Lin Xun took out a wine gourd and started drinking.

Tonight, he had roughly learned of the truth about the massacre back then and also the identity of the true mastermind behind it.

When he thought of Yun Qingbai and Meng Qiujing, it was hard for him not to feel annoyed... In the end, the two he had killed were merely pawns?

Lin Xun was unreconciled.

“Baqi...Baqi... I will find you!”

Lin Xun took a deep breath, and his eyes flashed with determination.

The enemy was a Quasi-Emperor, and he was from a place beyond the Ancient Wasteland Domain. No one knew how far away that place was, but so what?

As long as he kept becoming stronger, sooner or later there would be a day he would capture this culprit, even if it meant he had to travel every inch of the Absolute Yin Ancient Domain!

A few days later, Lin Xun left Baiyujing.

He had originally planned to continue taking his revenge on Meng Rong and Ninth Prince Zhao Jingzhen, but after thorough investigation, he had found that they had vanished without a trace.

Lin Xun guessed that the other party had prepared for this and had already hidden away out of fear after learning about him killing the Saints.

There was nothing that he could do about this.

However, now that Yun Qingbai and Meng Qiujing were dead, those two small fries could no longer stir any troubles at all.

As long as they dared to come out from hiding, then it would be their time to die!

......

Half a month later, Lin Xun met up with Toady and Zhao Jingxuan at the Ink White Province in Spirit Treasure Holy Land, where they set out together and traveled to the North Dipper World.

Cloud Dream Reservoir was located in the extreme north of the North Dipper World.

It was a vast and infinite mountainous region that retained the primitive look of the ancient era, filled with lakes, mountains, forests, and wastelands...

In the air, enormous rainbow-colored butterfly birds soared, their screeches piercing the sky. On the barren plains, ferocious beasts galloped about, their roars like torrents that shook the earth.

From time to time, travelers would see gigantic snow-white apes leap up to the sky and grab a giant bird before tearing it apart and eating it raw.

There were also thumb-sized golden ants that came out in swarms. Wherever they passed, the rocks were chewed into powder that spilled all over the place.

It took Lin Xun’s group ten days to finally reach Cloud Dream Reservoir.

Cloud Dream Reservoir, also regarded as the land loathed by even gods and demons, may look primitive, but the qi in its atmosphere is extremely thin. It’s not an ideal place for cultivation,” said Zhao Jingxuan casually.

Before coming here, she had already gathered information on the region.

“If the Cloud Weaver Clan really inhabits this place, then it’s indeed very hard to find them. This place is full of life; it’s just that the qi is too sparse,” commented Toady.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun took out the scented pouch that Caicai had given him and gently opened it. Instantly, strands of crystal-clear silk streamed out and gradually sketched out a figure. The sight was amazing as the figure reflected the light and glowed brightly.

It resembled Caicai’s appearance.

Toady clicked his tongue in awe. “Little Miss Caicai is really dexterous. This should be the Puppet Weaving Technique that weaves the essence of starlight into puppets that are capable of many wonderful things. This little puppet should be specialized in guiding.”

As soon as Toady finished his comment, the figure shot up and flew off.

The group hurriedly followed it.

After flying for the time it took to burn an incense stick, crossing several mountain ranges, rivers, and finally a foggy swamp, they arrived at a place that made their eyes light up.

It was as if they had entered a secret realm all of a sudden. Before their eyes was a verdant mountain range with towering mountains in a disorderly charming arrangement.

At the top of each mountain, auspicious clouds quietly floated. They came in various colors such as crimson, violet, indigo, and azure, painting a beautiful scene.

The most stunning thing was that on each cloud was an actual building, floating between the mountains and rivers like a kingdom on the clouds.

“So beautiful.” Zhao Jingxuan’s eyes shone brightly as it was the first time she had seen such a miraculous place.

Lin Xun and Toady were also amazed.

“Who are you?!” a cold shout suddenly rang out.

The group then saw a black cloud swiftly approaching them before transforming into a blue-robed, stalwart man with a bow and arrows on his back.

“We are friends of Miss Caicai. Please inform her of our arrival.” Lin Xun politely cupped his fist, his expression calm.

“Caicai?” The young man furrowed his brows. “Do you have a token?”

Lin Xun took out the scented pouch earlier and sent it over to him.

After a slight inspection, the man’s expression immediately became much more relaxed. He said, “There’s no mistake, this definitely belongs to Lil’ Sister Caicai. Come with me.”

With that, he turned around and flew into the distance.

Along the way, Lin Xun’s group would see members of the Cloud Weaver Clan poking their heads out of the clouds and sizing them up. It seemed as if they hadn’t had outsiders visiting in a long time.

Eventually, the blue-robed man brought them to a mountain that looked like a fairyland.

At the top of the mountain floated a huge, glowing palace built on violet clouds. It looked solemn and holy. contemporary romance

“This is an important area of our clan. Please wait here while I go and report,” said the blue-robed man before hurriedly entering the palace.

“Oh boy! Don’t tell me this palace was refined from Violet Origin Starlight?!” Toady appraised the palace with gaping eyes.

The Violet Origin Starlight, a wisp of light extracted from the Origin Starry Dawn, was an extremely rare material. By adding a small amount into the mix when refining a Saint treasure, the quality of the product could increase a level!

Therefore, it was normal that Toady was shocked to see a huge palace made entirely of Violet Origin Starlight.

Lin Xun and Zhao Jingxuan were also stunned when they learned about this. It was clear that the Cloud Weaver Clan had extraordinary heritage.

“Outsiders, it’s best that you leave. Caicai is in seclusion now. She is unable to receive guests,” a pleasant voice suddenly rang out.

Along with the voice, a slender figure appeared in front of the palace.

It was a woman with long, white hair and a jasper bamboo staff in her hand. However, she looked young and extremely beautiful. Wearing a long, purple dress, her every move exuded a majestic aura.

The blue-robed young man also appeared and reminded Lin Xun’s group in a low voice, “This is the matriarch of our clan. You really should leave.”

The trio was stunned. They had just arrived just to be turned away?

Lin Xun cupped his fist. “Senior, I’m here with a favor to ask of you.”

The woman indifferently said, “You, the mighty Demon God Lin who can kill even Saints, have something you need to ask of my Cloud Weaver Clan?”

She obviously knew who Lin Xun was!

Caicai had likely told this violet-clad woman about her experience after returning to the clan. Since Lin Xun had come with Caicai’s scented pouch, she naturally guessed his identity right away.

Toady stepped in. ‘‘Senior, since you know who my brother is, naturally you also know that we are friends with Miss Caicai, but why are you driving us out? Is this how your Cloud Weaver Clan treats their guests?”

Hearing this, the woman frowned, then sighed softly, “Never mind. I might as well tell you the truth first, but after that you should really leave.”

Right at this moment, a whooshing sound echoed.

Everyone looked over and saw a robust man flying toward them. Before he even approached, his panicked voice already rang out, “It’s bad, Matriarch! The Golden Spectral Sparrow Clan has sent another emissary!”

The woman’s face sank and flashed with anger. “They’re truly going too far. Didn’t I tell them that I needed some more time to think about it?!”

The robust man also looked indignant. “I don’t think they’re here to propose marriage at all, but to force it on us!”

The woman’s expression was uncertain. In the end, she sighed, “Forget it. Invite them in.”

The robust man was anxious. “Matriarch, are we really going to accept their proposal? Caicai is your own daughter! How can someone like that Golden Spectral Sparrow’s Young Master be worthy to be her husband?”

At this point, Lin Xun’s group frowned as well, knowing that the situation wasn’t quite right.

It was also a surprise to them that Caicai’s mother was this beautiful violet-robed woman who was the matriarch of the Cloud Weaver Clan!

“Go. I have my own plan.” Her voice allowed no refusal.

The robust man was helpless. He left with a sigh.

The matriarch then turned to Lin Xun’s group. “As you can see, I have urgent matters to deal with, so I hope that you can give me this space.”

Toady opened his mouth, wanting to say something when Lin Xun stopped him and said, “Then we will wait until you’re done.”

The matriarch ordered, “Lan Yan, take our guests somewhere they can have a rest.”

Immediately, the blue-robed young man stepped out and led Lin Xun’s group away.

“Ai...” The matriarch let out a soft sigh when she was finally alone in front of the palace, her expression flickering.

How could she not know that the Golden Spectral Sparrow Clan was not actually interested in a marriage, but wanted to use this as an opportunity to annex their Cloud Weaver Clan?

They were nothing more than a rapacious predator.
