Learning in Secret

Chen Wang sighed upon hearing this.

During that period, the Red Cloud Sect was in turmoil, with undercurrents surging within it.

The Red Cloud Sect Disciple were killed, the Pill Refining Peak was attacked, and some forces were hiding beneath the surface. Even he once thought that the Red Cloud Sect was bound to fail.

Unexpectedly, the Red Cloud Sect was so cunning that they invited other forces to infiltrate the mountains.

"That's right. If other forces can come to besiege the Red Cloud Sect, the Red Cloud Sect can naturally invite helpers as well."

Chen Wang recalled what Zhao Shanming, a disciple of the Spirit Medicine Valley, had said, and it seemed to be true.

"Do you now know which forces besieged the Red Cloud Sect back then?" Chen Wang asked.

Qin Yong was an Alchemist who had interacted with many people in the Market, and he nodded.

"The Five Poisons Sect, the Seven Stars Sect, and several cultivation Lineage, such as the Ma Clan, the Hu Family, and the Joyful Union Sect."

He named seven or eight sects, paused, and then continued, "The Red Cloud Sect has already declared war on these forces, and we'll probably have to fight to the death next."

"Besides, there are probably other forces that haven't surfaced yet, like that mysterious Golden Core expert, whose identity we still haven't heard of."

Qin Yong a very logical and reasoned analysis, and Chen Wang listened with great interest.

It must be said that Qin Yong a considerable amount of information.

After chatting for a while, Qin Yong he spoke of the deaths of familiar people.

Many people died in that bloody battle.

Some were caught in the crossfire, some were robbed and killed, and some never returned after leaving.

That day, the cruelty of the Cultivation World was laid bare.

"So, it's possible that the young man also survived that battle," Chen Wang thought to himself.

Seeing that Qin Yong knew so much information, he thought for a moment and then described the young man's appearance.

He sighed and said, "I saw this person kill a lot of people that day. His methods were ruthless. I wonder which sect he belongs to?"

Qin Yong raised an eyebrow and thought for a moment before saying, "Judging from your description, it seems to be Wang Changjing is on the wanted list."

"Wang Changjing? A wanted poster?" Chen Wang raised an eyebrow.

"That's right, you don't know how many people have already been put on the wanted list. Anyone who enters the Red Cloud Sect will be killed without mercy!"

"Many people died in the conflict that day, and many people rose to fame. Wang Changjing was one of them."

"He is the son of the Seven Stars Sect Master. It is said that he is at the Qi Refining Stage 9 and has some powerful techniques."

Previously, he was not well-known, and everyone thought his cultivation aptitude was poor. Unexpectedly, he was very skilled at hiding his abilities. During that conflict, several outstanding elite disciples of the Red Cloud Sect died at his hands!

Wang Changjing, the eldest son of the Seven Stars Sect Master, Chen Wang remembered this name.

It's quite possible that person could kill an elite disciple of the Red Cloud Sect using their methods.

After a pause, Qin Yong continued, "Do you remember Feng Lin... you know, Xu Yuan's wife."

Feng Lin?

Chen Wang paused for a moment, then said, "I remember, what's wrong?"

Qin Yong said, "I always thought she was just an ordinary female cultivator, but I never expected that she would actually practice the Cultivation Method of the Joyful Union Sect."

"It's just that she seems to have some tension with the Joyful Union Sect. During the bloody battle that day, someone fought with the Red Cloud Sect Disciple and killed their way here. Feng Lin was also affected. Unexpectedly, she suddenly made a move, and her cultivation was quite impressive. She also mastered the Joyful Union Sect's Bewitching Arts!"

"I saw with my own eyes that the cultivator's crotch was bulging high, but Feng Lin kicked it to pieces, and blood stained his pants. He died a terrible death!"

"She knows the Bewitching Arts of the Joyful Union Sect? Could she be Joyful Union Sect?" Chen Wang said in surprise.

Feng Lin Xu Yuan, a married couple, have lived here for many years and have not noticed anything unusual.

Qin Yong shook his head. "I don't know. That day I heard a female cultivator recognize Feng Lin's Cultivation Method and hear something about 'stealing' it, but I didn't hear it clearly."

Stealing knowledge... Chen Wang raised an eyebrow, a flash of Spiritual Light striking his mind. He suddenly remembered how Feng Lin's personality had drastically changed after Xu Yuan's death.

Was it because she learned the Joyful Union Sect's Cultivation Method back then? "Whether it was the Cloud Pattern Ancient Coin or various spiritual techniques for investigation, nothing was found about her. That's because she wasn't a ghost, but rather someone who cultivated the Joyful Union Sect's Cultivation Method?"

"You're lusting after my body?"

Chen Wang thought to himself.

Although mountain Accompanying Ghost are difficult to detect with ordinary Law Technique, they would easily reveal their true nature if they were to remain in areas frequented by cultivators year-round.

Furthermore, the Accompanying Ghost cannot leave the Demon Tiger for too long; they are usually used as creatures to attach themselves to it.

"Where is Feng Lin now?" Chen Wang asked.

Qin Yong shook his head. "He disappeared after that day. I don't know if he died or was captured. It's a pity."

As he spoke, he realized he had said something inappropriate and blushed, but Chen Wang didn't seem to mind.

A beautiful widow like Feng Lin, with her graceful figure and stunning looks, would naturally be favored by men, especially with the Joyful Union Sect Bewitching Arts of the Hehuan Sect.

Chen Wang said, "Qin Da seems to know quite a lot."

He was indeed somewhat moved, and his address changed from "fellow Daoist" to "elder brother." Many people died in that bloody battle, but this person could still see so clearly and understand so much; he was truly a talent.

Qin Yong blushed slightly, but didn't explain his methods. Casual chatting was fine, but such methods should be kept secret.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, fellow Daoist."

Chen Wang was somewhat surprised by the actions of the Red Cloud Sect; they were better than he had imagined.

"In this way, we can continue to cultivate here, but we need to be careful in the future. Wang Changjing might come and cause some trouble again."

Chen Wang straightened his back immediately, thinking, "It's even better that he's here. I'll just kill him!"

Seeing Chen Wang suddenly straighten his back, Qin Yong, who was opposite him, was taken aback and asked, "Fellow Daoist Chen, what's wrong? Is my chair uncomfortable?"

Chen Wang's lips twitched, and he shook his head. "No, I'm just feeling a bit sentimental about the unpredictability of life and death. I never expected so many things to happen."

Qin Yong deeply agreed.

They were all cultivators, and although in the mortal world they would be called Immortal Master, able to summon wind and rain, call ghosts and heal the sick, and be high and mighty, in the Cultivation World they were the lowest-ranking rogue cultivators, with no guarantee of survival.

This major conflict wouldn't normally concern them, but even the slightest ripple could overwhelm and tear them apart.

Qin Yong was filled with frustration. He was over thirty years old and had accomplished nothing. The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became.

"I'm refining pills all day long, but I haven't made any progress. I haven't even found a Daoist partner yet. Sigh, what kind of life am I living!" Qin Yong sighed.

Chen Wang was unaware that the man opposite him was experiencing a sudden and complex emotional shift, and he sighed along with him.

Qin Yong took his hand and said, "Fellow Daoist Chen, you just got back today. It's fate that we met. Don't leave yet, let's have a drink together later. It's on me."

The sudden enthusiasm caught Chen Wang off guard.

However, he also wanted to get some information from Qin Yong, so after thinking about it, he stayed.

However, he has hundreds of Spirit Stone on him, so he probably can't sense Qin Yong's troubles.

He basically lived a life of fine wine and women in Lingdong, living a carefree and suave life.

Qin Yong's frustration was destined to be a case of talking past each other.
