Chapter 656: The Hero Becomes a Prisoner of Love

This Jiu Fang Yunfei was rather magnanimous and extremely big-hearted and Qin Wushuang never expected that Jiu Fang Yunfei would admit these things. For a time, he thought that he was not open and honest. He chuckled and put down the alcohol cup.

When Jiu Fang Yunfei saw him laugh abruptly, Qin Wushuang suddenly waved his hand to motion him to stop speaking. The entire union hall was empty; however, one should be afraid of any ears next door.

Jiu Fang Yunfei was a smart person as he immediately came to this realization. Inwardly, he was impressed to see how this young man was indeed experienced. Jiu Fang Yunfei could be considered someone that was used to the society, but in terms of this amount of detail, he was not as thorough as him.

Instead, the two of them chatted about other things. They talked about some safe matters and of difficulties in relation to training. Only when the drinks and dishes were almost finished, Qin Wushuang stood up while roaring with laughter. “Bro, I was familiar with you at first sight, how about let’s go out and take a walk.”

“Alright.” Just when Jiu Fang Yunfei was about to take the bill, Qin Wushuang put down one green crystal stone with a smile. “Let’s go.”

The two of them left the guild and walked outside of the city. Only when they had arrived at the desolate area outside the city, Jiu Fang Yunfei gave a long sigh. “You are really being careful, could it be you are worried that the walls have ears within the union?”

“I was not worried because I know the walls do have ears,” Qin Wushuang said lightly. “When the head butler had walked behind the hall, his footsteps had disappeared behind the door. It’s clear that he was hiding behind the door.”

Jiu Fang Yunfei felt extremely surprised and exclaimed, “You have such sharp ears!”

Although Qin Wushuang was only at the Perfect Void Martial Stage, regarding the spiritual perception stage, even one at the Perfect Void Martial Stage could not match his level. After all, he had experienced the spiritual baptism. He possessed tremendous spiritual perception and could almost be on par with an elite warrior of the Supreme Dao.

“It is an insignificant talent and not worth mentioning,” Qin Wushuang said humbly. Suddenly, his expression changed slightly and he said with a bitter smile, “Trouble is here.”

“Trouble?” Jiu Fang Yunfei frowned slightly.

“Yes, those three guys stayed around and followed us.” Qin Wushuang gave a slight sigh.

“They are rather bold,” Jiu Fang Yunfei coldy stated.

Qin Wushuang shook his head. “Let’s go, and not play with them. Let’s go talk in a safer place.”

The two of them exchanged a glance and raised their heads to see a lush and serene hidden forest. Naturally, they went inside. Since Qin Wushuang knew these three people were chasing after them, of course he could not allow them to follow by leaving any traces behind. Instead, he eliminated their presence along the way and created many confusing false trails.

Upon seeing Qin Wushuang’s experienced methods, Jiu Fang Yunfei could not refrain from feeling deeply impressed. After the two of them had passed the forest, finally they arrived close to a serene mountain cave.

Qin Wushuang raised his head to look at the mountain cave and said with a faint smile, “We are not going in, let’s go around this cave.”

Only after they had walked deep into the mountains, Qin Wushuang laughed. “I think this is alright, those three guys are still playing hide and seek in that lush forest.”

Jiu Fang Yunfei was extremely impressed. However, he felt somewhat strange. “How can you be sure of the exact location of those three people?” he questioned.

Qin Wushuang said with a faint smile, “I have some small methods in which I can keep an eye on their position.”

Jiu Fang Yunfei clearly knew these were not basic methods. If he could truly watch the position of the other party, it would be a great divine skill.

Of course, Qin Wushuang had not relied on any divine skill, but rather the Observant Finger Jade Plate. When this object had collected the slightest presence of the other party, he could clearly pinpoint their location. Additionally, if the distance was close, he could even lock the exact location.

Jiu Fang Yunfei was deeply impressed as he gave a long sigh. “It’s no wonder that you are a disciple of the six major Daoist sects. With all your methods, you even make me feel ashamed.”

Qin Wushuang only smiled and did not speak. He took out the sealed scroll and summoned the Moon Palace Jade Hare and the Sky Pilfered Mole. He gave them some instructions and let them stand on guard on the outside.

As long as someone were to approach them, Qin Wushuang would be alerted right away.

After Qin Wushuang had finished everything, he said with a smile, “Now, we are absolutely safe and there is no need to worry about any hidden ears.”

Upon seeing Qin Wushuang act as if he was taking things very seriously, he found it somewhat strange. He thought of how they were strangers who met by chance and even though they got along very well, it seems they didn’t have to find such a remote place. And to talk so carefully? Could it be he truly was afraid of getting heard by someone?

Seeing Jiu Fang Yunfei’s strange expression, Qin Wushuang knew he was full of questions, so he said with a smile, “Brother Jiu Fang, what are you thinking?”

Jiu Fang Yunfei was stunned and suddenly, his expression changed. Brother Jiu Fang? He remembered that he seemed to not have told him his name yet? Could it be he was capable of figuring it out?

“No, it’s not right…” Jiu Fang Yunfei’s mind was in chaos. This voice sounded familiar, and he must have heard about it. Jiu Fang Yunfei quickly thought about it in his mind.

Qin Wushuang had already taken off his mask and revealed his true features. “Brother Jiu Fang, do you still remember me?”

“You… You are Qin Wushuang?” Jiu Fang Yunfei came to the realization as his eyes were full of disbelief. “It’s you! That’s incredible!”

Qin Wushuang said with a smile, “Many years have passed since our farewell at the Orderly Mountain Prefecture. There was never any further news of you, so I thought you had returned to your clan to live in seclusion. I didn’t expect that we might meet in a foreign land.”

Jiu Fang Yunfei was also mingled with joy and surprise. “Brother Wushuang, it’s truly you, this is wonderful. When I saw people of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to deal with them on my own. It’s great that you are here.”

“Deal with them?” Qin Wushuang was stunned. “Do you hold a grudge with them?”

Jiu Fang Yunfei shook his head. “I have no conflict with them; however, I know that the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect is currently the sworn enemies of the Qin Clan. They must be fulfilling some scheme by coming to this Illusion Heavenly Lake. The Qin Clan is the great savior of the Jiu Fang Clan. Therefore, the Jiu Fan Clan’s duty is bound to the matters of the Qin Clan. I am worried that this Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect has come here for they surely want to acquire something to deal with the Qin Clan. Or else, with their situation, they would not have left their native place in the first place!”

Qin Wushuang had agreed with this thought without prior consultation. Qin Wushuang nodded seriously. “The words you say are reasonable. It seems the people of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect have come here with an ulterior motive. However, since they are here, let’s see if we can give them a bit of a surprise. It’s good, we can deal with any old conflicts and maybe make some new ones together!”

Jiu Fang Yunfei said surprisingly, “Brother Wushuang is going to declare war with them?”

Qin Wushuang revealed a mysterious smile. “No rush first, I am going to see exactly what schemes are they holding onto, then I will consider declaring war.”

Upon seeing Qin Wushuang’s look as if he planned in advance, Jiu Fang Yunfei could not say anything. A question popped into his head, “The strength of those three should all be at the Perfect Void Martial Stage, right?”

Qin Wushuang knew that Jiu Fang Yunfei was reminding him to not underestimate his enemies. In fact, how could Qin Wushuang underestimate the enemies? He had a thorough understanding of the strength of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect.

Those were Qin Wushuang’s irreconcilable enemies, how could he not get to know them?

Of course, Jiu Fang Yunfei was not aware of Qin Wushuang’s trump cards. It was no wonder too. Qin Wushuang did not expose himself, but instead asked, “Brother Jiu Fang, how come you were at this Illusion Heavenly Lake? Earlier when I saw you enter the union, you seemed to be holding some gloominess in between your brows.”

Jiu Fang Yunfei gave a low sigh and a trace of sadness flashed across his face.

“Brother Wushuang, ever since our farewell from the Orderly Mountain Prefecture, I have gone out to see the world after I spent a few months in my clan. Since the the Heavenly Emperor Eight Gates forbids the Jiu Fang Clan to come out at the Xuan Yuan Mound, I had come to the Illusion Heavenly Lake. Unexpectedly, I have encountered a disaster of a lifetime.”

“Oh, how do you say it?” Qin Wushuang was stunned. When he saw Jiu Fang Yunfei’s depressed expression, he could not refrain himself from asking, “Could it be you’ve encountered a love affair?”

Although Jiu Fang Yunfei was straightforward, he could not refrain from feeling stunned when Qin Wushuang had asked him directly, “How could you have known?”

Qin Wushuang said with a bitter smile and shook his head, “I just guessed.”

Jiu Fang Yunfei gave a long sigh. “Exactly as you’ve guessed, I am met with the nemesis of my life. I have met the wrong side of her in the wrong time. I’ve fallen in love and took one wrong step. Then, I couldn’t get out.”

Seeing Jiu Fang Yunfei with such sadness, Qin Wushuang also sighed inwardly. He wondered could Jiu Fang Yunfei be so unlucky that he met a female disciple that was training to pass the love affair?

If that were the case, Jiu Fang Yunfei would be the ample sacrificial victim. The female martial artists of the Illusion Heavenly Lake were all ranked as a source of disaster. They viewed the love calamity as a major turning point in their martial arts training. Each time they passed one stage, they would receive a great improvement of their strength. When they were passing the love calamity, they would find some young and handsome men with elegant demeanors to increase the difficulty of the love calamity.

Of course, under normal circumstances, they were putting on a show and no real affection would be created. Unless, a small portion of them chose to turn their acting into reality.

However, when they were putting on a show, the people they chose were kept completely in the dark. If they had put in too much effort and were trapped in a sea of bitterness, it would be easy to understand when they could not pull out.

Could it be this Jiu Fang Yunfei has encountered such a trapping situation?

“Brother Jiu Fang, the nemesis lifetime nemesis that you’ve mentioned, could it be a female disciple of the Emei Daoist Sect?”

Jiu Fang Yunfei nodded with disappointment. “That’s right. Only later on I learned that everyone in the Emei Daoist sect hated men. In that case, why would she come to me?”

Brother Jiu Fang, this is because your elegant demeanor has caused the trouble. If you were an ordinary man, they would not have chosen you.”

“Who do you say this?” Jiu Fang Yunfei was full of confusion.

“Brother Jiu Fang, did you not know that the female disciples of the Emei Daoist Sect use the love calamity as their training pass. Each time they achieve a breakthrough, they will use the love calamity to achieve it. To put it bluntly, the men they select are only a tool. Of course, to increase the difficulty of the love affair, the more exceptional the man the better.”

Jiu Fang Yunfei’s expression changed greatly as he said with stutter, “Is this true?”

“I heard about this from the chief of the Qin Clan. However, I am afraid it’s true that the female martial artists of the Emei Daoist Sect resent all men in the world. Or else, why would they not take in male disciples?”

Jiu Fang Yunfei felt as if he was struck by lightning for he was stunned. “I see, I see… No wonder she bailed on me when we promised to meet in three years at the Ten Thousand Flower Valley. I see… No, I must head to the Ten Thousand Flower Valley. Didn’t Taking Advantage say that the Emei Daoist Sect is hosting an open challenge to invite a groom to return to normal life? I must go take a look. I don’t believe that she’s really lying to me…”

For something like love, the person on the spot is baffled, only the onlooker sees clearly. Although Qin Wushuang thought the other party must have used Jiu Fang Yunfei to get through the love calamity, he could not be the one to break his heart when Jiu Fang Yunfei was unwilling to face this reality. He could only say, “Let’s go look then. I do want to see what exactly is going on with that Emei Daoist Sect.”

Qin Wushuang was not concerned about the female martial artists of the Emei Daoist Sect issuing an open challenge. He wanted to find out about that woman in palace clothing and the whereabouts of Shui Ruolan.

Especially for someone as naive as Shui Ruolan, it would definitely be another form of savagery if she was taken away by that violent woman!
