Chapter 1046


    <strong><em>Levelwater City</em></strong>


    Mu Yu fetched the young schr drifting in the water, and thetter turned out to be none other than Zhuang Yuang, the youth who used a book as his weapon of choice. “Xiaoshuai, you sure he’s alive? I don’t sense any life in him.”


    Xiaoshuai knocked on Zhuang Yuang. “He has converted his vitality into a sinister energy to seal his life force, effectively feigning death.”


    “Sounds like something Xie Bo would think up. Why is he still out cold, then?”


    “Erm… The technique will remain in effect for around seven days. I can’t remember where I’ve seen the technique employed before, but I do know how to expedite his slumber.”


    Xiaoshuai gently stabbed Zhuang Yuang in the chest, causing thetter to wake up and spray out ck qi from his mouth, shrinking his bloated physique.


    “Who ar-, you!” Though Zhuang Yuang regained awareness, he still was not in stable condition.


    “Third Heaven Pce kill everyone?” Mu Yu passed Zhuang Yuang a pill.


    Zhuang Yuang, after consuming aforementioned pill, raged, “Yes. They teamed up with Celestial Star Sect to assail us. I’d be dead if I didn’t learn Shifu’s Life Stopping Technique.”“… Have you seen Kongkong, Miaomiao or Lan Ling’er?”


    “While Kongkong and Miaomiao often visit, someone picked them up prior to the attack on the day of the attack.”


    “Lan Ling’er?”


    “No, it was some middle-aged man I don’t recognise, but they did.”


    “Uh… I wonder if it was Uncle An. If it was him, where would Lan Ling’er have gone?”


    “Well, if it was Uncle An, then he’d know how to give Third Heaven Pce the slip,” stated Xiaoshuai.


    “I guess and hope so. Zhuang Yuang, where are Ximen Buxing and Wanwan?”


    “Third Heaven Pce was after those two; however, they’re seldom here. Wanwan told me she was going to Levelwater City thest time she was here,” answered Zhuang Yuang.


    “What sort of ce is Levelwater City?” Mu Yu inquired.


    “Few cultivators can locate it as it’s a forbidden city for cultivators. The city is located at a riverside. The river isn’t still.”


    “I don’t get it,” uttered Xiaoshuai.


    “I’ve never seen it, either. ording to Wanwan, you can’t find the river when you search for it, but you may find it when you don’t search for it.”


    “The heck? Tian Ran, have you heard of the city before?” Mu Yu queried.


    “My mother mentioned it was a city reserved for ordinary folks, so cultivators have their cultivation sealed once they set foot in the city and cannot leave. It’s believed to be a mobile city. Having said that, this is all hearsay,” replied Tian Ran.


    “I can only pray everyone can protect themselves, then.”


    Mu Yu nursed Zhuang Yuang’s injuries until thetter was able to move on his own.


    “I’ll go look for Du Biying. I suspect Third HeavenPce will be going after him if they haven’t already got to him,” mentioned Zhuang Yuang.


    Upon returning to the manor in low spirits, Mu Yu informed, “Don’t worry, Elder Xun. Anyhow, it’s not safe for you to stay here, so we’ll escort you to Formation Sect.”


    Qing Mei shook her head. “I will stay until Cheng Yan returns.”


    Mu Yu gently exhaled through his nose. “He’ll be all right. Have faith in him.”


    Understanding how Qing Mei felt but alsoprehending the status quo, Daoist Qing Song persuaded, “Qing Mei, we’re too weak. We’ll only be used against him if we stay here. Heed Mu Yu’s advice. Cheng Yan will know where to find Mu Yu if hees back.”


    “I’ll leave a letter telling him where we’ve gone, then.”


    Mu Yu escorted the trio back to Formation Sect overnight and then left them in Lu Deyi’s care while he hurried off to see Zhuge Xiaosheng in Formation Pce.


    “Patriarch, have you heard of Levelwater City?”


    “Levelwater City? What brought this on?” Zhuge Xiaosheng inquired.


    “Wanwan is heading there,” Mu Yu elucidated.


    “I see. I have only been there once.”


    “I am suspecting there are more secrets in the city than we know of. If it is out of bounds for cultivators, does that mean Third Heaven Pce cannot manipte it?”


    “Dozens of years ago, Grandmaster took me along to the city, saying a friend invited him there and wanted me to expand my horizons. Once I entered the city, I felt my cultivation taken from me unless I was with Grandmaster. Now that I think about it, that must have been D-”
