The Tomb of King Jing, I Dislike Bloodshed

In fact, Qin Yue'er was prepared to ask about the author of that newbie book. She noticed that Wang Zhong held that book in high regard, even more so than the Chinese Almanac. Furthermore, Qin Yue'er quietly calculated that the newbie book would have an impact on Wang Zhong both mentally and emotionally. This piqued Qin Yue'er ’s curiosity even further. What kind of book could be so powerful? It could even influence someone like Wang Zhong who had reached the Myriad Manifestation Realms. Could it be a King's Immortal Technique? Or even an Emperor's Immortal Technique? Perhaps an even more powerful secret of immortal techniques? However, when she saw Wang Zhong's expression, Qin Yue'er forcibly held back her question.

Qin Yue'er made up her mind to ask later.

"Master, there's one more thing," Qin Yue'er had to change the subject.

"What is it?" Wang Zhong nodded. As long as it wasn't related to the Chinese Almanac or the newbie book, Wang Zhong could answer.

"Disciple just secretly divined a hexagram and found out that the Tomb of King Jing will open exactly one month from now," Qin Yue'er exclaimed.

"Really?" Wang Zhong became interested.

"Absolutely," Qin Yue'er affirmed.

The so-called Tomb of King Jing was a mobile secret realm in the Eastern Region. Legend has it that it was the tomb of the founding ruler of the Eastern Dynasty, containing a vast amount of resources of the Eastern Dynasty, along with the legacy of King Jing. If one could obtain his legacy, they would undoubtedly reach the King Realm. This temptation was irresistible to anyone.

As soon as this legend emerged, it immediately attracted countless cultivators to explore. However, over the years, no one had obtained the legacy of the King. Of course, the Eastern Dynasty had always denied such claims. Even so, every time the Tomb of King Jing appeared, countless cultivators in the Eastern Region flocked to it like moths to a flame. This was because while the authenticity of King Jing's legacy was uncertain, the abundance of cultivation resources inside was undeniable.

Furthermore, the threat from the Mountain Moving Sect and their marriage proposal to Qin Yue'er were also related to the imminent opening of the Tomb of King Jing. The Mountain Moving Sect's plan was simple: they would use the Qin family's Celestial Divination Technique to advance knowledge of the time and location of the tomb's opening. Coupled with the Mountain Moving Sect's secret inheritance technique, they would have an absolute advantage. At that time, all the immortal treasures and resources in the tomb would fall into the hands of the Mountain Moving Sect.

However, the Mountain Moving Sect would never have expected that Wang Zhong would suddenly appear.

"The location?" Wang Zhong continued to inquire. While he had complete confidence in breaking through to the King Realm, he was also interested in the legacy of King Jing, especially the abundant resources within the tomb. Currently, what the Spacious Spirit Sect lacked most were resources. Wang Zhong needed to seize a large number of resources to prepare for the Spacious Spirit Sect's promotion to a mid-ranked immortal sect.

"It's the Chiyang Prefecture," Qin Yue'er answered with a frown. She felt a bit resistant inside because the Mountain Moving Sect was located there.

"Don't worry, I'll handle everything," Wang Zhong reassured her.

"Yes," Qin Yue'er nodded.

"Good, I'll make arrangements. We'll head back to the Qin family," Wang Zhong said.

Later, Wang Zhong had a disciple of the Spacious Spirit Sect come over, and he was surprised to learn that there were more than two hundred people requesting to join the Spacious Spirit Sect.

Well, there was actually nothing surprising about it. After all, Wang Zhong's displayed strength was even more formidable than Yan Tiesheng's. When a tree grew tall, it would be considered as great shelter. Many families saw this as an opportunity to find a powerful backer. And Wang Zhong also see it as a chance to recruit more people for the future development of the Spacial Spirit Sect.

However, he wasn’t intent to accept them all; otherwise, it would give the impression that the Spacious Spirit Sect was open to anyone. In the end, Wang Zhong selected one hundred people from the list and instructed the disciple, "Take these newly admitted disciples back to the Spacious Spirit Sect. Notify the grand elder and the second elder to have one of them lead a team to the Chiyang Prefecture. Arrive within a month, and don't delay."

"Yes," the disciple responded and immediately left.

On the way to the Qin family's temporary residence, Wang Zhong encountered Yan Tiesheng and Song Hongyan.

These two seemed to be specifically waiting for Wang Zhong.

"Sect Master Yan, Sect Master Song, do you have something to discuss?" Wang Zhong asked.

"Sect Master Wang, did we interrupt your pleasant time?" Song Hongyan looked at Qin Yue'er with hostility.

"If it's not urgent, then I'll take my leave first," Wang Zhong said.

"Cough cough! Let's get to the point," Yan Tiesheng stopped Wang Zhong and then set up a barrier.

"Sect Master Wang, have you heard about the impending opening of the Tomb of King Jing?" Yan Tiesheng asked seriously.

"I haven't," Wang Zhong immediately shook his head. Yan Tiesheng scrutinized Wang Zhong carefully, but he didn't seem to be lying.

"You are too busy with your own affairs to pay attention to anything else, aren’t you?" Song Hongyan said sarcastically.

"Actually, according to outside information, the Tomb of King Jing should open in the next one or two months. However, the location is unknown," Yan Tiesheng got straight to the point, "So I discussed with Sect Master Song, and we've decided that my Sword Mountain Sect will join forces with the Azure Sea Pavilion. We'll send disciples from our sects to investigate the various major prefectures in the Eastern Region. This way, once the Tomb of King Jing appears, we can ensure it's discovered as soon as possible. We won't waste too much time."

"So?" Wang Zhong looked at Yan Tiesheng.

"So, we came here to invite Sect Master Wang to join us in this alliance. We are all immortal sects in Qingzhou Prefecture, and we should stand united against external threats," Yan Tiesheng explained.

"Thank you for the kind offer, but I'm not interested. I wish you good luck," Wang Zhong declined.

"Why?" Yan Tiesheng was somewhat taken aback. Originally, he thought Wang Zhong would agree. This three-party cooperation would save a lot of manpower. After all, discovering the location of the Tomb of King Jing as soon as possible was crucial. If they were late, they might miss out on the treasures.

Furthermore, those who would go to the Tomb of King Jing included various major sects and factions from the Eastern Region. The three strongest immortal sects in Qingzhou Prefecture joining forces in advance would bring only benefits without drawbacks. There was no reason for Wang Zhong to refuse, right? Yan Tiesheng couldn't understand.

Song Hongyan was also puzzled.

Wang Zhong wasn’t stupid; it was just that Qin Yue'er had already accurately calculated the time and location of the Tomb of King Jing 's opening. There was unnecessary for Wang Zhong to cooperate with the Sword Mountain Sect and the Azure Sea Pavilion. Otherwise, it would be like handing over a treasure.

"I believe in benevolence, righteousness, and beauty. I don't like bloodshed," Wang Zhong sighed and easily broke Yan Tiesheng's barrier, leaving with Qin Yue'er.

Yan Tiesheng and Song Hongyan were left dumbfounded. The scene of Wang Zhong killing Liu Yifei with a single sword at the Immortal Ascension Conference was still fresh in their minds. Now, Wang Zhong actually claimed not to like bloodshed. This was too shameless.

Qin Family's Temporary Residence.

The elders of the Qin family were as anxious as ants on a hot pan. It had been a day and a night since Qin Yue'er went to visit Sect Master Wang. She still hadn't returned. They didn't know what had happened.

However, the elders of the Qin family didn't dare to disturb Wang Zhong. In addition, they were in a hurry to get back to the Qin family. They needed to relay the news of Qin Yue'er's acceptance into the Spacious Spirit Sect as soon as possible to prevent disaster from befalling the Qin family.

They were especially anxious because it would take about half a month to rush back, and if they encountered any delays on the way, it might lead to an attack on the Qin family by the Mountain Moving Sect. By then, it would be too late.

"In that case, the rest of us will head back first. Brother, you stay and inform Miss," the second elder of the Qin family spoke up.

"That's a good idea."

"Unnecessary. We'll all go back together," came Qin Yue'er's voice from the entrance.

The Qin family elders breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss, did Sect Master Wang agree to let you go back?" the second elder of the Qin family asked with concern.

"If Sect Master Wang doesn't agree, you must not act on your own. After all, the position of direct disciple is not easy to come by and must not be lost," the fifth elder of the Qin family echoed.

"Elders, relax. Not only am I going back, Master has also agreed to accompany me to the Qin family."

"Sect Master Wang is going too?" The elders of the Qin family were overjoyed. If Wang Zhong was willing to go, then the Qin family would definitely be able to overcome this crisis.

"Alright, let’s not waist more time. Master is waiting outside. We should pack up and leave right away!" Qin Yue'er said.

"Yes, hurry!" The second elder of the Qin family exclaimed excitedly, unable to hide his joy on his face.
