Immortal Path to Heaven Chapter 440 – Qinmiao Daoren

Chapter 440 Qinmiao Daoren

Ou Yangming almost staggered and fell. Although he had seen much of the world already, he could not help but want to curse when Lao Boyi made such a ridiculous request.

‘Did you just ask me to subdue the Insects’ spirit beast too?

‘What are you talking about? Do you think the Insects are my pet and that I can control them whenever I want to?’

When the goshawk previously devoured the lizard’s head, it told Ou Yangming that the Insects had evil intentions toward him and had reported his existence to the upper realm. Even though the young fellow did not know how the Insects from the upper realm would react to a human from the lower realm, he knew it was not good news.

Perhaps it would be best if they did not care about him at all, but if they sent a powerful insect here…

Now, Lau Boyi was asking Ou Yangming to conquer the spirit insect here too.

Ou Yangming took a deep breath and responded, “General Lao, there’s a reason I could subdue the king kong and the goshawk. As for the spirit insect in Yongxiang County, I can only help to kill it; you better not count on me to become its master.”

“Master Ou, why is that?” Lao Boyi asked in shock and continued after a pause, ‘The Insects might not seem as big as the Beasts and the Birds, but they’re useful too.”

“General Lao, why wouldn’t I control more spirit beasts if I could? Some things just can’t be forced.” Ou Yangming sighed.

Lao Boyi was slightly stunned, then he fell silent.

At last, everyone made their way into the city. Nonetheless, instead of the governor’s residence, they headed straight to a luxurious courtyard.

Ou Yangming immediately noticed a smile on Jiang Jiumei’s face, so he knew the courtyard was definitely the Mysterious Mirror Sect’s property. Nevertheless, he was quite surprised that the governor brought Wu Hanning here. Was he not afraid that Her Highness would be displeased?

The convoy slowly stopped. Yu Jinshuang welcomed Wu Hanning with respect and said, “Your Highness, this is the Mysterious Mirroi Sect’s station in the city. Be careful.”

Following that, the luxurious resident’s gate was opened, and a middle-aged woman, who had a slim figure and a pretty face, walked out. She carried a faint aura, but it felt it felt unordinary to Ou Yangming and his companions.

The woman’s martial art cultivation base was fearsome.

Ou Yangming noticed at one glance that even the Supreme Great Ancestors from Yongxiang City were unusually respectful toward the lady.

It was evident from their attitudes. The fact that they reacted like that even when they were Supreme Great Ancestors could only mean one thing.

The dignified and beautiful middle-aged woman was a Supreme Great Ancestor at the peak.

“Master…”

Before Yu Jinshuang could introduce the guests, Jiang Jiumei had approached the woman.

The woman looked at her lovingly but soon had a strange look on her face when she took a good look at her disciple.

Jiang Jiumei was wearing different pieces of equipment. It was a magic suit carefully smithed by Ou Yangming, and it was a priceless treasure to those who knew its worth.

Despite that, the woman did not ask Jiang Jiumei about it. She looked meaningfully at her disciple and asked, “You’re back. What’s the situation out there?”

“I encountered a lizard from the upper realm but throughout our fight, the king kong outside showed up and ate it…” Jiang Jiumei answered.

The other people were stunned, especially the powerhouses from Yongxiang City, who were rather taken aback. Nobody introduced the king kong to them, but they knew what it was. After all, the humongous creature could not be ignored at all.

However, the king kong ate a powerhouse from the Insects.

It ate the lizard…

‘Why does it sound so odd!’ The people wondered.

The woman was slightly surprised too, but she turned and nodded at Wu Hanning. “Greetings, Your Highness. I’m Qinmiao Daoren from the Mysterious Mirror Sect.”

Wu Hanning bowed at the woman. She had met countless Supreme Great Ancestors in her life, but she rarely bowed at them.

While Qinmiao Daoren returned the princess’s salutation, she glanced at Ou Yangming at the back.

Ou Yangming tensed up a little because he somehow sensed something familiar about the woman. It was as though he had met her or sensed or aura before, but even when he racked his brain, he could not figure it out.

Qinmiao Daoren smiled and greeted him, “Master Ou, nice to see you again.”

The young fellow laughed and thought hard. He had probably lost numerous brain cells at this moment, but he could not recall anything at all. Even so, he could only pretend to be confident in front of the others.

As if she noticed the expression on his face, Qinmiao Daoren chuckled. “Master Ou, I happened to have met you after you learned the spear technique from Chen Dishou.

Ou Yangming was struck dumb. Before long, he was shocked as a thought crossed his mind. “It was you that day, senior!”

Back when Ou Yangming was done learning the Chen family’s spear technique from Chen Dishou, someone had secretly approached him. He noticed it because of the integration of Heaven and man, as well as the thoroughly meticulous state. When the young fellow tried to attack, Qinmiao Daoren disintegrated his attack with ease. Knowing that he could not defeat his opponent, he quickly used the Blood Flight Technique to escape.

After Ou Yangming had greater achievements in martial arts, he had wanted to redeem himself but could only give up the idea because he did not know who it was.

Now that he knew that person’s identity, he did not want to fight her at all. Even if it was for the sake of Jiang Jiumei, he dared not think about it anymore.

Qinmiao Daoren nodded and asked, “How is… Chen Dishou?”

Ou Yangming answered with a bitter smile while he scratched his head, “Senior Chen disappeared after he taught me his spear technique. I asked around in the capital but even the Chen family’s disciples have no idea where he went. That said, based on his martial art boundary, I suppose he’ll be fine even if he faced trouble.”

“I hope so.” Qinmiao Daoren sighed. She glanced at Jiang Jiumei and suddenly asked, “Did Chen Dishou mention anything when he taught you his spear technique?”

“Senior Chen hoped that I’ll represent him to exchange blows with someone once I master his spear technique,” Ou Yangming replied to her after some thought. “Exchange blows?” Qinmiao Daoren could not help but laugh. “Okay, let’s fulfill the promise since you’re here.”

Ou Yangming raised his eyebrows and had a weird look on his face.

“Senior, did he really mean you?”

Qinmiao Daoren grinned and asked, “Why? Do you not believe it?”

Ou Yangming instantly waved his hand and smiled bitterly.

He recalled Chen Dishou’s expression back then, thus when he studied the look on Qinmiao Daoren’s face at the moment, he knew there was something between them. Moreover, he figured that it was likely related to the relationship between a man and a woman.

The young fellow felt a tingling sensation on his scalp when he thought about this.

He secretly complained, “Senior Chen, you didn’t settle your problem and ended up getting me involved. I’m speechless…’

Nonetheless, he eventually became dispirited when he looked at Ni Yinghong, Wu Hanning, and Bai Shixue.

‘Even I didn’t handle my relationship problems well. How can I judge someone else?’

Qinmiao Daoren patted Jiang Jiumei and said, “Jiumei, this is the junior of an old friend of mine. I promised him that we’ll let our apprentices battle each other in the future to see who’s more superior. Now, the time has come.”

Jiang Jiumei widened her eyes in disbelief.

“Master, how can I… How can I exchange blows with him?”

Qinmiao Daoren smiled. “I’m aware of the affection between you, but a promise is a promise. If he doesn’t want to do it, then I’ll call it off.”

Ou Yangming sighed. “Jiumei, I must do it since I promised Senior Chen. It’s just a battle; it’s nothing much.”

He would obviously go all-out if he were to exchange blows with a stranger. In fact, he would even ask Multi-armed King Kong and the goshawk to assist him.

On the other hand, he would exchange blows with Jiang Jiumei properly.

Jiang Jiumei was undecided for some time, but she finally nodded.

Wu Hanning and the Supreme Great Ancestors in the city exchanged glances, but they could not butt in. Nevertheless, most of them were not as worried because Ou Yangming’s opponent was Jiang Jiumei.

They would only fight because they wanted to settle the matter, and it would be impossible for them to be serious about it.

With that, Qinmiao Daoren led them to a spacious courtyard.

Ou Yangming and Jiang Jiumei entered a martial arts field there. The young fellow shook his hand and retrieved a spear from his interspatial bag.

“An interspatial bag.” Qinmiao Daoren’s eyes lit up. It was an extremely practical treasure, after all, but the Mysterious Mirror Sect only had one.

Jiang Jiumei gestured to Ou Yangming respectfully. “Please.”

“Okay, be careful,” Ou Yangming uttered.

Before his voice died away, the tip of his spear turned into a dazzling light that was aimed at Jiang Jiumei.

Ou Yangming’s spear shadows were seemingly endless at this moment, such that they filled the entire courtyard.

That being said, the final hit, which was also the most ruthless hit, was the Throat-locking Spear.

The Chen family’s spear technique—the Lethal Throat-locking Spear-was the toughest to guard against. “Ding…” At the spur of the moment, the spear tip became visible and was about to pierce through Jiang Jiumei’s throat.

It was then when a longsword blocked and counterattacked violently.

Subsequently, the two of them exchanged blows without an end on the martial arts field.

Whether it was the spear or the longsword, they were both holding back.

Without warning, the horn was sounded from the top of the city wall.

The Insects had shown up and launched a massive attack.
