Even ordinary people felt that something was amiss at this time, and there were many noble young masters in the teahouse who were now hurriedly settling their bills, each returning to their own homes.
For a short while, there were only a few scattered customers left in the teahouse, but the shopkeeper was also looking in the direction of the Imperial City, feeling a little puzzled.
What kind of major event had happened to resort to an urgent 8oo-mile journey? The Grand General’s conquest of other countries hardly ever involved such urgency. Why was it happening now?
At this moment, those who were in the know in the capital awaited the first-hand news, but Liang Sheng was unconcerned. He came back to the secular world this time just to experience life and act at will.
So what did the affairs of the secular world have to do with him?
Don’t get involved in cause and effect.
At this time, Liang Sheng threw a piece of broken silver on the table. He had already obtained quite a bit of mundane things like gold and silver during his time at Xigu Pass.
After all, on the way to the capital, those bandits dared to intercept him halfway. Liang Sheng naturally would not be polite, killing them and thus eliminating a threat to the people.
When Liang Sheng left the teahouse this time, he didn’t have a destination in mind. As he walked forward, he would stop to watch interesting performances and even throw out a piece of reward silver when he was in high spirits.
Before long, it was getting late, and Liang Sheng spent another night at the Dusty Garden Inn. Afterward, his days continued like this for another three days.
On this day, when the sun set behind the western mountains, Liang Sheng was just about to leave for the Dusty Garden Inn when the entire Capital City was suddenly put on high alert by the Five Armies Commander’s Mansion.
Soon after, at the gate of the Capital City, an elite team of the Always Victorious Army escorted a luxurious carriage at a hurried pace, heading for the Imperial Palace.
It wasn’t long before the news spread, and the whole capital was in an uproar. Grand General Zhou Yikao was critically injured and on the verge of death! That was why in the previous scenes, the elite team of the Always Victorious Army had accompanied and rushed to the capital on fast horses, allowing Zhou Yikao to meet the emperor.
For a short while, those who received the news were astonished, and the envoys from various countries were equally puzzled at this moment.
It was only recently that news of Zhou Yikao emerged victorious and returned, so how could he suddenly be on the verge of death from a critical injury? After all, Zhou Yikao was an Innate Grandmaster, and how many people under heaven could be his opponents?
At this moment, Liang Sheng didn’t have the mood to enjoy the secular world anymore. He looked at his own shadow with a bit of confusion, wondering if he was truly born under a solitary star.
Otherwise, why would he encounter such a strange incident just by breaking through and casually enjoying the secular world?
Earlier, he had sensed the aura of a cultivator on Zhou Yikao’s carriage entering the city. To be precise, Zhou Yikao was already dead, and his injuries were caused by a cultivator.
Moreover, Liang Sheng was familiar with the aura of this tactic because it should be from the same sect as him.
It was also the Upper Pure Immortal Sutras Immortal Cultivation Technique, which meant that Zhou Yikao had already died, and this might be the doing of the Upper Green Sect.
Because of the previous conflict between the Upper Green Sect and the Hua Tian Sect in the market, Liang Sheng couldn’t help but suspect that this was the Upper Green Sect’s doing.
Had the conflict between their two sects already extended to the secular world? Fortunately, the Qi cultivation aura on Zhou Yikao was not strong, and the other party should only be a low-level cultivator of the Qi Cultivation Third Layer.
However, for the secular world, the other party was an invincible immortal, and at this moment, Liang Sheng had no hesitation and immediately left the Capital City, preparing to return to the Cultivation World Market.
Great Zhou of the secular world seemed to be in great trouble. If it was indeed the Upper Green Sect’s doing, this place might turn into another battlefield of cultivation, so why should he get involved in this whirlpool?
However, when he arrived at Xigu Pass, he was dumbfounded on the scene because there were already more than a dozen cultivators at the Thick Fog Mountain Cave of Xigu Pass, who were leaving Xigu Pass at a rapid speed and heading towards the capital. But, there were two Hua Tian Sect disciples stationed at the cave entrance.
At this time, Liang Sheng certainly could not force his way through. It would be tantamount to courting death. Moreover, he saw two familiar faces among those cultivators heading to the capital.
Chen Fengchen!
Zhou Kang!
Seeing the two of them appearing in the secular world, and because someone was guarding the mountain cave entrance with thick fog, Liang Sheng didn’t know the specific situation, so he immediately sneaked down the mountain, his expression extremely ugly.
Why didn’t he return to the Cultivation World Market the day he broke through? Judging from the current situation, the Upper Green Sect might have really been making some moves, otherwise, why would the Hua Tian Sect go to such lengths?
He just hoped it wouldn’t affect him.
At the next moment, Liang Sheng did not continue towards the Capital City but instead stayed in a small town inn below Xigu Pass. It was still the inn where he stayed during the year he rescued Chu Chen.
The inn was still the same but the shopkeeper had changed. Judging by his appearance, he should be the son of the previous shopkeeper.
However, because of the friction between the Upper Green Sect and the Hua Tian Sect, Liang Sheng was unable to return to the Cultivation World and had a bad feeling in his heart.
Would there be any changes happening?
