Chapter 79 - 76: Can You Do Me Another Small Favor?

Meanwhile, the news spread to the three major families of Central Earth.

Within a hidden forest, Mo Qianqian was in the middle of his cultivation when Li Haoran’s figure appeared in his line of sight once again.

This time, Li Haoran was no longer unkempt. His white hair was neatly tied back, his face was clean, and the mud on his clothes had completely vanished. His slightly aged face now radiated a righteous aura. He looked remarkably spirited, and combined with his rather broad physique, he gave off an air of vigorous vitality.

"Kid, your version of the Vast Spear Technique isn’t bad," Li Haoran said with a hearty laugh, clearly in a great mood. "It’s more powerful and easier to practice. From now on, the new Vast Sect will adopt your version as our standard cultivation method."

"As I expected!" Mo Qianqian thought. "The Vast Spear Technique imparted by the armored middle-aged man is indeed much purer!"

At that moment, Li Haoran tossed a thumb-sized object that resembled a Token over to Mo Qianqian. "I need to go recover some of my strength, and I’ll be quite a distance away from the Ling Family. When you’re ready to assault the Ling Family, crush this Token one day in advance."

Mo Qianqian’s face lit up with joy. Li Haoran was keeping his promise! Catching the Token, he quickly thanked him, "Thank you, Sect Leader!"

"If you want to annihilate the Ling Family, you still need to rely on your own strength," Li Haoran cautioned. "Before my power is fully restored, I can only help you hold off one or two of their old fogeys. I can’t wipe out the Ling Family for you. Besides, the moment I reveal myself, Tai Xuan Academy probably won’t be able to sit still."

"I understand," Mo Qianqian nodded.

He realized that he couldn’t use Li Haoran as a trump card recklessly. Once used, it would likely draw the attention of the people from Tai Xuan Academy.

"But don’t worry," Li Haoran added. "Once my strength is restored and I reach the next level, I will annihilate Tai Xuan Academy as well!"

Mo Qianqian nodded again. He knew that the former Sect Leader of the Vast Sect was definitely no weakling.

"You’re not bad yourself, kid," Li Haoran praised, a rare occurrence. "Being both a Body Cultivator and a Spirit Master is probably unprecedented in the history of the Great Xia Dynasty. As long as you keep a low profile and grow steadily instead of charging in prematurely, wiping out the Ling Family will only be a matter of time."

Hearing this, Mo Qianqian was utterly shocked. "Sect Leader, you... you know I’m a Spirit Master?"

Recently, even during battles, he hadn’t used his Spirit Body. No one else knew. How did this man find out?

"I naturally have a special ability. Don’t worry about how I know; just know that I mean you no harm," Li Haoran said.

Mo Qianqian was astonished. A special ability? Did the Sect Leader of the Vast Sect possess the ability to detect whether someone was a Spirit Master? What kind of ability was that? However, hearing that the older man wouldn’t harm him, he breathed a sigh of relief. "Please keep it a secret for me, Sect Leader."

"Just having me keep it a secret isn’t enough!" Li Haoran pulled out another item and tossed it to Mo Qianqian. "I’ll take you to find someone. The Human Skin Mask that person crafts can pass for the real thing. You should lay low for a while."

"Thank you, Sect Leader!" Mo Qianqian said, thrilled. "But this thing..." He was puzzled. The object he had caught looked like a small stone, and he couldn’t tell exactly what it was.

"It’s a token of trust. Take it to meet that person and just say you obtained it by chance. I won’t be seeing them myself," Li Haoran said, his expression somewhat complex.

Mo Qianqian understood. It seemed the Sect Leader of the Vast Sect was a man with a past.

"Now, I’ll drop you off at Luocheng on my way," Li Haoran added.

"Luocheng?" Mo Qianqian was surprised. That was a city in Central Earth, one of the main territories of the Lie Family.

Li Haoran didn’t explain further. His aura surged out, sweeping Mo Qianqian up, and the two soared into the sky.

Suddenly, an idea flashed in Mo Qianqian’s mind. "Sect Leader, I wonder if you could do me a small favor?"

"Hmm?" Li Haoran looked at him.

"The Cloud Void Sect is actually Tai Xuan Academy’s lackey in the Southern Wilderness. Since our Vast Sect has a grudge against Tai Xuan Academy, why don’t we take this opportunity to eradicate the Cloud Void Sect?" Mo Qianqian suggested. By this point, he already considered himself a member of the Vast Sect.

Surprisingly, Li Haoran didn’t object. Instead, he asked, "What is the strength of the Cloud Void Sect?"

"Currently, the strongest on the surface was the Cloud Void Sect Master, who was at the Third Level of Tongyou Realm. However, the Cloud Void Sect Master is already dead," Mo Qianqian replied. "As for whether they have any hidden Tongyou Realm experts, I don’t know."

Li Haoran pondered for a moment before declaring, "Let’s wipe them out!"

Mo Qianqian was overjoyed. He had merely asked to test the waters; he hadn’t expected the other party to actually agree.

"After we destroy the Cloud Void Sect, how about we go eradicate the Qin Family too?" Mo Qianqian asked tentatively. "The Qin Family is the Ling Family’s lackey in the Southern Wilderness. Their strength is similar to the Cloud Void Sect, and the Patriarch of the Qin Family is at the Fourth Level of Tongyou Realm."

"Destroy them!" Li Haoran spat out the word.

Mo Qianqian was ecstatic. The Sect Leader of the Vast Sect was truly generous! He agreed to annihilate them just like that!

And so, Li Haoran swept Mo Qianqian along as they sped forward.

Nearly a day later.

The Cloud Void Sect was situated at the peaks of a continuous mountain range, its buildings standing amidst lush, ancient trees. In the early morning mist, birds chirped melodiously. The sect truly lived up to its name, sitting high above the clouds like a void. Mo Qianqian and Li Haoran had spent nearly a day traveling before arriving at their destination.

Carried by Li Haoran, the two of them charged at blinding speed straight to the plaza in front of the main peak’s palace buildings.

At this moment, hundreds of Elders and disciples of the Cloud Void Sect happened to be gathered in front of the main hall. Seeing the two intruders arrive, everyone was instantly stunned.

"Mo Qianqian!" the crowd gasped in alarm.

For the past few days, countless people had been searching for him to no avail. Yet, Mo Qianqian had actually come straight to their Cloud Void Sect on his own accord? And who was that old Tongyou Realm expert standing beside him?

Upon seeing this, the second greatest genius of the Cloud Void Sect, Hou Xuanyun, couldn’t help but roar furiously, "Mo Qianqian, how dare you show your face!"

Mo Qianqian crossed his arms and smiled. "Everyone, we’re here today to send you to meet the Cloud Void Sect Master."

"You!" The crowd erupted in fury.

Did these two plan to wipe out their entire Cloud Void Sect?

Beside Mo Qianqian, Li Haoran stepped forward and declared, "The core Elders and disciples of the Cloud Void Sect can step out and accept their deaths! The rest of you, disperse!"

"What did you say?"

"Do you think there’s no one capable left in our Cloud Void Sect?"

"What shameless boasting! Attack, let’s annihilate them!"

The group of Elders and disciples was enraged.

Among them, a white-robed Elder stepped out. The aura of the First Level of Tongyou Realm suddenly erupted from his body. "Do you take our Cloud Void Sect for fools?" he demanded.

"The First Level of Tongyou Realm? How weak!" Li Haoran’s figure blurred as he charged directly at the white-robed Elder, throwing a massive punch at him.

The white-robed Elder’s expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly struck out with his palm in defense.
