Martial Peak

Chapter 1599, Cannot be Judged by his Appearance

“Elder Qian, have Elder Yang or Elder Mo responded?” Among the three, an elderly man wearing a brown robe looked around from time to time and continued to ask Qian Tong in a low voice.

“No,” Qian Tong slowly shook his head and replied anxiously, “I don’t know where they are, but the communication artifacts can’t reach them at all. What about Vice City Lord Ning? Have you been able to reach him yet?”

The elderly man sighed, “I can’t get in touch with him either. I don’t know where Brother Ning has gone.”

The two looked at each other and both saw the anxiety and helplessness in each other’s eyes.

The elderly man was Green Mountains Star’s Green Water City’s City Lord. When Yang Kai left Green Mountains Star and returned to Tong Xuan Realm, Qian Tong and his group of five stayed in the City Lord’s Mansion to prepare for the Blood Prison Trial, which would open a few years later.

The City Lord of Green Water City had an astute character, and after learning about Qian Tong and the others’ arrival, he had strongly invited them to serve as Honoured Guest Elders of Green Water City. Not wanting to cause any misunderstandings and in need of a good place to stay, Qian Tong and the others agreed.

Over the past few years, everyone had got along fairly well and there were no gaps or friction between them now.

As soon as the Blood Prison Trial started, they entered the Blood Prison with this elderly City Lord and Vice City Lord Ning.

All of them were Third-Order Origin Returning Realm masters and entered the Blood Prison to comprehend the mysteries of Domain in order to touch upon the threshold of the Origin King Realm, so of course, it was impossible for all seven of them to travel together.

As such, everyone dispersed.

A few days ago, the elderly man heard about the appearance of the Domain Stone Mountain and immediately used his communication artifact to contact his companions, but only Qian Tong and Lin Yu Rao had arrived so far while Yang Xiu Zhu, Chu Han Yi and Mo Yu from Clear Sky Sect were nowhere to be seen, nor was there any contact from Green Water City’s Vice City Lord Ning.

Seeing more and more people arrive here, Qian Tong and the others present naturally grew anxious.

Without an absolute advantage in strength and number, it would be impossible for them to keep the spot they currently occupied.

There was already a group of cultivators not far away who could not obtain a good position and were now eyeing them maliciously; however, because there were only two of them, they didn’t dare act rashly.

However, this pair was constantly sending their Divine Senses into their communication artifacts, seemingly contacting someone.

Once this pair’s reinforcements arrived, Qian Tong and their group’s situation would become precarious.

“Elder Lin, have you had any responses?” The elderly man turned his eyes to Lin Yu Rao next.

Lin Yu Rao slowly shook her head as a look of worry flashed across her beautiful eyes, “No.”

“What should we do?” The elderly man muttered anxiously and uneasily. Such a great opportunity lay in front of him but didn’t have the time or ability to take advantage of it, only able to stand in place vigilantly. This was nothing short of torturous.

“We’ll wait for another half a day, and after half a day. If Elder Yang and the others don’t come, we… we’ll leave!” The elderly man grit his teeth and decided.
