Chapter 1425: Yinshan District

Chapter 1365: Yinshan District

Long Kui solemnly reassured the two youths, “Don’t worry, I will be on full alert during our trip to the Yinshan Mountains, and such an incident will not happen again. After he joins Humility’s Gate, Realmless will demand a much steeper price to launch any attempts on his life, and it’s possible that not even Bai Shaohong will be willing to pay. Even if the assassination is successful, once Humility’s Gate investigates, Bai Shaohong might not be able to afford the repercussions, and he is not an unreasonable person.”

Long Xi nodded.

There was one detail that they were all aware of, but no one mentioned; even if Bai Shaohong did not rely on Realmless, he still had other options for dealing with Lu Yin. Even after Lu Yin joined Humility’s Gate, Bao Shaohong would still have various options available to him, though they would be greatly restricted.

Long Xi fell into a bad mood. She was physically and mentally exhausted from fending off one attack after another, and as the frequency of the attacks increased, while it revealed the depths of the Celestial Frost Sect’s plot against the White Dragon Clan, it also demonstrated the Celestial Frost Sect’s disregard for the White Dragon Clan. What did that mean? It meant that the Celestial Frost Sect believed itself to be strong enough to break the balance established between the four ruling powers.

The image of a woman appeared in Long Xi’s mind. She was the woman who had transformed the Celestial Frost Sect. Her name was Bai Xian’er, and she acted as though she was superior to the entire Perennial World.

The Yinshan Mountains¹ were as gloomy as the name indicated, and they were also almost completely empty. Nobody lived in the area surrounding the mountains, either, because it was not suitable for human habitation. The ground was covered with a swamp that released noxious gasses, and there were creatures born in the swamp that filled the area that prevented outsiders from entering the mountains.

Humility’s Gate was an organization that was spread wide. They had nine Gates in the Middle Realm, and of them, the Yinshan District was the smallest gate. The only reason there was a gate in the Yinshan District was because it was such a large region that none of the other eight gates could easily cover the region. It was simply too large of an area for it to be worth another gate overseeing the area.

The area provided nothing of value, but it was also not reasonable to simply abandon, which led to the current situation in the Yinshan Mountains.

As far as many people were concerned, the Yinshan District was a place that had been designed especially for the troublemakers and rambunctious children of powerful families. It was a place to punish or protect those who needed it.

There was only a single city in the entire Yinshan District, and it was known as Yinshan City. Contrary to Lu Yin’s expectations, Yinshan City was quite lively. There were not many normal people among the population, but mostly cultivators. For the residents, the most popular pastimes were eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling. Nearly any vice that one enjoyed in the outside world could be found in this place.

The entire city was dedicated to making money from the pampered children sent to this remote location, but outsiders were allowed to freely enter and leave the city. Humility’s Gate had their Yinshan District Gate in a wasteland to the west of Yinshan City.

Gui had already changed his size before approaching the Yinshan Mountains, and he had the appearance of an average beast with the strength of a Hunter, so he did not attract any attention.

Gui landed to the west of Yinshan City, and as Lu Yin jumped down, Long Kui said, “I can only take you this far. Remember, you are now Linjiang Yi. Also, don’t get involved with Zhuo Si.”

Long Xi looked at Lu Yin from behind the elder, “Don’t draw attention to yourself and don’t cause any trouble. You’ll be able to go to the Higher Realm with me in no more than half a year, so just stay safe for now.”

Lu Yin nodded. “Don’t worry, I’ll behave.”

Gui soon flew into the air, and after looking at Lu Yin with all four eyes, the beast turned and flew away. Lu Yin had seen pity in the creature’s eyes; the animal really did view Lu Yin as nothing but a toy.

Lu Yin watched as Gui disappeared from sight, and then stretched and took a deep breath. It felt so good to be free.

The ground was soft and black beneath him, and a glance was enough to tell that this was not a good place.

Lu Yin followed Long Kui’s advice and made his way towards Humility’s Gate’s base in the Yinshan District.

This place was within an uninhabited mountain range, but there were some strange creatures living in the mountains. All of them were hideous, and they stayed hidden in the dark all year round.

Lu Yin spent a long time walking through the mountain range before finally seeing a large structure off in the distance. The buildings had been built around the mountains and looked as though they had been embedded into the mountains. This was the Yinshan District Gate of Humility’s Gate.

Lu Yin’s domain could sense the star energy in front of him violently fluctuating as he approached the Gate. He slowed down and raised a hand; there were people fighting up ahead, nearly a hundred of them.

Lu Yin picked up his pace.

He quickly crossed over the black land and soon saw hundreds of people fighting and screaming outside the Yinshan District Gate. There were also more people further away than the battlefield, and they were pointing at the Yinshan District Gate. There were also other people present who were completely unconcerned with the fighting, and they acted as if it was perfectly normal.

Lu Yin lifted his head to look at the Yinshan District Gate. It was one of Humility’s Gate’s nine Gates in the Middle Realm, and it naturally had Envoy’s and Enlighters with power levels of 300 to 400,000. Lu Yin needed to continue hiding his origins, just as he had when with Long Xi and Long Kui.

While the battle involving the hundred people down below looked to be fierce, no one died, and not one person used any sort of weapon. Most of the people were only Explorers or below, though there was the odd Cruiser and even Hunter present.

Space in this universe was incredibly solid, and the ground was similarly tough. Despite the number of people involved in the fight, they were not able to cause much damage. In contrast, if such a fight occurred in the Fifth Mainland, numerous planets would have already been destroyed.

Lu Yin’s attention was drawn to the center of the battlefield where two young men were fighting, and it seemed that their fight would determine the entire battle.

Lu Yin saw one of the two youths use the Four Arts. He was a fat man with a pale face. He was not ugly, but he was very oily. “Mo Gaohe, today this handsome man will beat you to the ground.”

“Idiot.”

Boom

There was a loud bang as a shockwave distorted the air and exploded out, pushing everyone and everything a kilometer back. Both of the youths were Hunters.

The speed at which the man moved made Lu Yin take a second look. Although it could not come close to comparing to what Wang Yi had revealed, it was still very fast compared to most of Lu Yin’s peers and could compare to that of Yuhua Mavis and the others who were Enlighters, yet the person Lu Yin was watching was only a Hunter.

“Four Arts: Bear Stalwart!” The fatty shouted as muscles began to grow across his body. It looked like he had converted all of his fat into muscles.

Across from the former fatty, Mo Gaohe maintained a dignified appearance. “Wind God – Defence.”

After he spoke, his star energy formed a maelstrom that surrounded his body, complete with lightning and thunder. It blurred the area as it isolated the youth.

The pale, fat youth threw out a punch that struck the storm, and the ground shattered. The shattered attack exploded in all directions, and many people screamed. The storm was clearly too powerful, because the fatty was not able to pull his hand back, and instead he was sucked into the swirling maelstrom. Mo Gaohe sneered as he moved to take advantage of the situation, and a blade appeared in his hand as he attacked.

The fatty gritted his teeth and spread his fingers. “Four Arts: Pearl.”

Mo Gaohe did not know what had been sealed, but his body collapsed to the ground. Still, before he fell, his blade shot towards the fatty.

The pale man’s arm was cut by the blade, and his blood spilled across the ground. Meanwhile, Mo Gaohe smashed into the ground. His face had turned red.

“Mo Gaohe, you’re despicable! You’re even using weapons!” the fatty roared as he punched at his opponent.

Mo Gaohe angrily retorted, “You’re despicable! Fatty, you actually sealed my legs!”

As Mo Gaohe spoke, he used his hands to retreat since he was unable to move his feet, making his movements quite amusing to see. The fatty laughed and slammed a fist into the ground. The ground was shattered, and Mo Gaohe was knocked unconscious.

At this moment, several of the other people around began to attack the fatty. He roared to the sky and punched an empty part region. The air was warped by the tremendous force of his fist, and it was actually visible to the naked eye. A shockwave erupted in all directions, and it sent the fatty’s attackers flying.

The fatty looked like a god of war at this moment, and he roused applause from many people who were watching.

Mo Gaohe was furious; the Wang family’s Four Arts: Pearl was a disgusting technique. It could seal any sort of ability or strength, and it led to Mo Gaohe’s defeat every time he fought the fatty.

“Okay, don’t go making trouble for people. Let’s go!” A deafening voice echoed through the area.

Lu Yin’s heart tightened; that voice had come from the Envoy who was in charge of Humility’s Gate in the Yinshan District. He was Zhuo Si, and he was one of the nine Gate Masters of Humility’s Gate’s gates in the Middle Realm.

Zhuo Si was the only Envoy at this particular gate.

The fatty was reluctant, but in the end he did not make any further moves. While Zhuo Si was lazy and was unconcerned about most things, people had to listen whenever he did speak up, as that was the least respect due to an Envoy.

Mo Gaohe was finally able to freely move his legs. He quickly stood up and looked at his torn palms. It was all that fatty’s fault, and it was embarrassing.

“Mo Gaohe, wasn’t that fun? Hahahaha!” The fatty laughed, and a group of people who had gathered behind him laughed with him.

Mo Gaohe let out a cold snort, and his mouth twisted into a smile. “Tell me, Fatty, are you happy? You’re about to be kicked out by the Wang family. The Wang family is one of the four ruling forces, and they’ve always bragged about raising nothing but elites and claim that they have no one useless in the family, and yet there’s you.”

The pale fat man’s face fell. “And yet I’m still a hundred times stronger than a bastard like you.”

Mo Gaohe glared, and the people who had gathered behind him all glared at the fatty and his posse.

“Captain, someone’s here,” someone from behind Mo Gaohe commented.

Mo Gaohe’s eyes lit up and he looked up to see Lu Yin approaching.

At this same time, the fatty also noticed Lu Yin approaching, but his expression was not very good after seeing Lu Yin.

Mo Gaohe looked at Lu Yin. “Brother, come down here. You must be new to my Yinshan Mountains.”

Lu Yin leaped down and stood between the two teams. He looked over at Mo Gaohe. “This new one is reporting in. I ask Seniors to take care of me.”

Mo Gaohe smiled. “Well, according to the rules, you’re now part of my team. Go report to the gate master. Right, what’s your name?”

“Linjiang Yi,” Lu Yin replied.

Mo Gaohe was stunned at the response; Linjiang?

On the other side of the field, the fatty’s eyes lit up. “Are you from the Linjiang family?”

Lu Yin looked at Fatty Bai and smiled. “That’s right.”

“Hahahaha, Mo Gaohe, you idiot! He’s part of the Linjiang family! How’s he going to join your stupid team? Brother, come over here. You’re with us.” The fatty laughed.

Mo Gaohe shot a cold look towards Lu Yin before turning and leaving.

Lu Yin was curious about this exchange, and he walked over to the fatty.

The fat man was very excited. “Bro, don’t bother holding back. Coming to this place is like returning home! You’re from the Linjiang clan, which means your family is under the White Dragon clan. My Wang family has always had a good relationship with that clan, so anyone from the Linjiang family naturally joins my team.”

“Who are the other guys?” Lu Yin asked.

The fatty replied, “The idiot leading them is called Mo Gaohe. He’s a disciple from the Celestial Frost Sect.”

Lu Yin was surprised, and he turned his head to look back at Mo Gaohe. So that person was actually from the Celestial Frost Sect. Lu Yin had not expected to run into those people again so soon.
