Chapter 68: Key of the Sky

Watching his sister leave, Yi Qianmo rushed out but was stopped by the old man. He stared at Yi Qianmo and asked, "What can you give her?"

Yi Qianmo stayed frozen in place, not moving.

"If you truly care for her, you should let her come back with us."

The old man said, "The Tang family in Qin Land is a world-famous family of cultivators. What about the Yi family?"

At this point, he looked toward Su Muyu in the distance and said, "Without this woman, you might not even be able to protect yourself. If you are sensible, I could speak to her and at least ensure that no one dares to bully the Yi family in Yan Kingdom. But if you are not sensible…"

Here, the old man paused, his eyes filled with threat. "Even if the lady protects you, quietly destroying your Yi family would be as easy as a simple wave of the hand. Do not keep bothering the lady; you and she come from different worlds. Even if you become a cultivator and start your path of training, the difference between you is like the sky and the earth! Take care of yourself!"

After that, the old man turned and left with his people.

"Lingyu!"

Yi Qianmo shouted loudly, "Take good care of yourself, Brother will come to find you!"

The old man glanced back, his eyes flashing with a murderous intent, then he revealed a contemptuous smile, as if to say, whether you can ever step out of Yan Kingdom is a question.

He followed their caravan all the way to the city wall of Green Cloud City. When the caravan disappeared from his view, Yi Qianmo confirmed that his sister had truly left.

"The Tang family of Qin Land, no wonder your legacy is so amazing!"

A voice came from nearby, and Zhou Lanting appeared beside him. "That old guy was at the Golden Core Stage!"

"No wonder…"

Yi Qianmo had a worried expression on his face. He had suspected it before, but only after Zhou Lanting confirmed it did he understand why he had no strength to resist.

"But that old guy really misjudged things."

Zhou Lanting said with a smile, "Your future achievements will likely be greater than your sister’s."

"That may not be the case."

Yi Qianmo turned and walked toward the city below. "After all, that’s the Tang family, which even Su Muyu is afraid of."

"Why pretend to be so nice in front of me? You dare to scheme against me even before entering the Qi Refining Stage, and once you do, you dare to kill disciples of the Xuanyuan Sect."

Zhou Lanting laughed and said, "To be honest, you are the boldest person I have ever met; the Tang family probably doesn’t even concern you."

Yi Qianmo ignored him and went straight back to his family.

"When will we leave for Tianyuan Academy?"

As soon as Su Muyu got home, she went to find him.

Today’s events shocked not only the Yi family, but even Su Muyu was surprised. She never expected that the small Yi family in Green Cloud City could have a connection with Tang family from Qin Land.

However, this also eased many of her doubts, such as the legacy that Yi Qianmo always talked about.

Although the Tang family members looked down on them like city people looking at their poor relatives, Su Muyu did not underestimate this connection.

As long as Tang Qianlan was at the Tang family, few people would dare to covet Yi Qianmo’s legacy, after all, the Tang family used to be named Yi.

Taking Yi Qianmo’s legacy would be nearly the same as taking the legacy of the Tang family.

But in order to make use of this connection with Tang Qianlan, it might take a long time. Even though she came from a noble background, if she did not have the talent for cultivation, she probably wouldn’t have much influence in a big family like the Tang family, let alone leveraging this connection.

Su Muyu comes from the royal family of the Yan Kingdom, and she is very clear about the rules and customs of such a prominent family.

"You should go back first. I will take care of the family matters and then head to the capital."

Yi Qianmo said.

Su Muyu felt a little worried, but when she thought of the Tang family members who had just left, she dismissed that thought and said, "Okay, I will return to the capital first. The big exam at Tianyuan Academy will be soon. Although you are the person I recommended, you know that there are many factions at Tianyuan Academy, and it is not just the royal family that makes the decisions. I hope…"

"Don’t worry, I won’t let you down."

Yi Qianmo nodded.

He had received so many benefits from Su Muyu, so he naturally needed to bring her honor.

After Su Muyu left, Yi Danian called him over. In the secret room, Yi Danian pointed to a large box and said, "This is what the Tang family brought. They said it is compensation for us."

"Hmm!"

Yi Qianmo immediately opened the box.

Inside, he found dozens of neatly arranged jade boxes. When he opened one of the jade boxes, it contained not only pills but also spirit stones.

He took a close look and found that these pills were all Qi Nourishing Pills, with dozens of bottles, but they were all of low to medium quality.

Besides that, there were spirit stones, but these spirit stones were also of low quality, with only one hundred pieces.

"Just give it to the beggars!"

If it were an ordinary family, even the Yu family would probably be overjoyed to see these spirit stones and Qi Nourishing Pills.

But in Yi Qianmo’s eyes, these Qi Nourishing Pills and spirit stones were pretty much the same as giving to beggars.

With the Tang family’s strong power, they would probably give much more to their servants.

When Yi Danian saw these items, he was surprised. Hearing his grandson’s words, the old man smiled wryly and said, "You can keep these for now; you’ll need them at Tianyuan Academy."

Upon hearing this, Yi Qianmo took out a jade box from the chest and said, "I only need these ten spirit stones; the rest can stay with the family. You and the two uncles will need them."

Yi Danian did not refuse, even though Yi Qianmo had not been by his side since childhood, he understood his grandson’s temper.

After dealing with the things from the Tang family, Yi Qianmo returned to the secret chamber. On this trip to Green Dragon Mountain, he gained a lot; besides that Pure Spirit Fire, he had also stepped into the third level of the Qi Refining Stage.

Sitting cross-legged in the secret chamber, Yi Qianmo immediately drew out Repel Evil. Instantly, a blood curse surged, and an evil god’s figure appeared in the secret chamber, looking fierce and frightening.

Yi Qianmo raised his hand, and a flash of light came from Repel Evil; the blood curse aura swiftly shrank back, leaving only a little old man on the sword, trembling as he begged, "Sir, I know I was wrong. Please lift the ban immediately!"

"If you dare act fierce in front of me again, I will make you wish you had never been born!"

Yi Qianmo warned.

"I won’t dare again; I won’t dare anymore," the little old man said.

"What exactly are you?" Yi Qianmo asked.

"Old and decrepit, I am Taoist Qingmu."

The old man said, "I come from beyond the sky, and people used to call me Taoist Qingmu."

"Beyond the sky?"

Yi Qianmo asked in confusion, "Are those red-haired monsters your fellow disciples?"

"Some are, and some are not."

Taoist Qingmu said.

"What is this thing?"

Yi Qianmo immediately took out the purple key.

"Key of the Sky!"

Taoist Qingmu exclaimed in surprise, "How did you get the Key of the Sky!"
