Chapter 1590: Chapter 1280: The Envoy of the Mysterious Moon Palace is Your Best Credential

As soon as he thought about the impending reckoning from the Mysterious Moon Palace, Ding Qingfeng hurriedly said: “Immortal, please save me!!!”

Sikong Youpeng said expressionlessly: “The only chance for you and the major families to survive is to fully pledge allegiance to the Chiyan Sect.”

Ding Qingfeng said: “But the Chiyan Sect hasn’t replied yet.”

Sikong Youpeng sneered, do you really think anyone can join the Chiyan Sect?

Ding Qingfeng was taken aback again and immediately asked: “Please enlighten me, Immortal!”

Sikong Youpeng said outright: “If you want to join the Chiyan Sect, you must prove your worth.”

“The envoy from the Mysterious Moon Palace is your best token of allegiance.”

This…

Ding Qingfeng fell silent.

If the person arriving was a regular disciple from the Mysterious Moon Palace, they might dare to act, but this time it was a direct disciple of an Immortal King. No one can say for sure whether the Chiyan Sect would choose not to go to war with the Mysterious Moon Palace and sacrifice him to take the blame.

Sikong Youpeng seemed to sense Ding Qingfeng’s thoughts, so he continued: “You wouldn’t think that mere mortals who’ve been cultivating for a few days in Sky Wolf City could be a match for the direct disciple of the Hall Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace, would you?”

“You only need to locate that person and leave the rest to the Chiyan Sect. Once you join the Chiyan Sect, immediately leave Sky Wolf City; even if the Mysterious Moon Palace learns of your betrayal, they can’t do anything to you.”

Upon hearing Sikong Youpeng’s words, Ding Qingfeng found them reasonable. The power of the direct disciple of the Mysterious Moon Palace’s Hall Master is imaginable; how could mortal cultivators like them possibly be his match?

If anything happens to that person, the Mysterious Moon Palace would most likely blame it all on the Chiyan Sect. Even if the Chiyan Sect hands these minor characters over, the Moon Palace wouldn’t believe it was their doing, and couldn’t placate the anger of the Moon Palace.

All they need to do is wait for Sky Wolf City to join the Chiyan Sect, and he would immediately leave Sky Wolf City, then nothing would happen to him.

Thinking of this, Ding Qingfeng said: “Please rest assured, Immortal, we will definitely find a way to locate the envoy of the Mysterious Moon Palace.”

Seeing Ding Qingfeng agree, Sikong Youpeng took a jade pendant out of his space ring and continued: “As soon as you find his whereabouts, activate the jade pendant immediately, and I will come at once.”

Ding Qingfeng respectfully took the jade pendant from Sikong Youpeng and then said fawningly: “Immortal, I wonder when the Chiyan Sect plans to take over Sky Wolf City?”

Sikong Youpeng said expressionlessly: “Isn’t it already taken over now?”

Upon hearing this, Ding Qingfeng was suddenly enlightened, extremely excited in his heart, realizing that Sky Wolf City was now territory of the Chiyan Sect.

No wonder the Chiyan Sect wanted to send people to find the direct disciple of the Hall Master of the Mysterious Moon Palace. It seems they are already planning to go to war with the Moon Palace.

If he can find the direct disciple of the Mysterious Moon Palace’s Hall Master, it would be a great achievement for him, and once he enters the Chiyan Sect, he will surely be rewarded.

Thinking of these, Ding Qingfeng was extremely exhilarated inwardly.

At this moment, Sikong Youpeng’s figure vanished on the spot, and Ding Qingfeng quickly said: “Farewell, Immortal!”

Once Sikong Youpeng left, Ding Qingfeng immediately sent people to look for the traces of the envoy of the Mysterious Moon Palace and shared this news with other families.

When the families planning to betray the Mysterious Moon Palace heard about this, they were very excited too. They had waited for so many years just to join the Chiyan Sect, and now they finally had the chance.

Soon, various families also sent out their family disciples to search for the whereabouts of the Mysterious Moon Palace envoy.

Amidst the major families and the City Lord’s Mansion searching for Lu Chen and his companions, Lu Chen led Xiao Xueying and Cao Shiyun openly to the gates of Sky Wolf City.

Upon seeing Lu Chen, the gatekeeping soldiers immediately said: “Today is lockdown; no one is allowed to enter Sky Wolf City!”

Hearing this, Xiao Xueying snorted coldly, “Open your filthy eyes and take a good look at what this is!”

Xiao Xueying directly took the identity token of the Mysterious Moon Palace from her space ring. Seeing the token in Xiao Xueying’s hand, the soldiers at the gate were shocked.

They were soldiers from the City Lord’s Mansion, absolutely loyal to Ding Qingfeng, and knew what Ding Qingfeng planned to do. That’s why Ding Qingfeng arranged for them to guard the gate, to prevent the envoy of the Mysterious Moon Palace from leaving Sky Wolf City.

Yet instead of coming from inside the city, the other party was coming from outside with a token to enter the city.

The soldiers were perplexed; weren’t they told that the envoy from the Mysterious Moon Palace was already inside the city? How come they are only arriving now?

At this moment, the Personal Guard Commander of the City Lord’s Mansion realized the situation and quickly approached Lu Chen, saying: “Greetings to the Upper Sect envoy!”

Seeing the Personal Guard Commander kneel, the other soldiers at the gate also knelt one after another, “Greetings to the Upper Sect envoy!”

Lu Chen said calmly: “Inform your City Lord immediately.”

Commander Bai Yufeng quickly stood up and said: “Yes, envoy, I will inform the City Lord right away that you’ve arrived.”

With those words, Bai Yufeng hurried to the City Lord’s Mansion.

At this moment, Ding Qingfeng was discussing with several aristocratic families how to find the Mysterious Moon Palace’s envoy.

Bai Yufeng rushed into the City Lord’s Mansion’s conference hall, “City Lord, I have urgent news to report!”

Upon hearing Bai Yufeng’s words, the discussion in the conference hall was interrupted.

Ding Qingfeng frowned and asked: “Bai Yufeng, didn’t I tell you to guard the city gate? Why are you here?”

Bai Yufeng quickly said: “City Lord, it’s the envoy; we have found the envoy!”

At these words, everyone present, including Ding Qingfeng, stood up in unison.

Ding Qingfeng hurriedly asked: “Where?”

Bai Yufeng answered: “At the city gate!”

Upon hearing these words, Ding Qingfeng’s expression changed, “Oh no, he’s trying to leave Sky Wolf City!”

Ding Qingfeng thought that their movements had been too large, already attracting that person’s attention, and assumed the person was planning to escape Sky Wolf City.

Bai Yufeng immediately realized Ding Qingfeng had misunderstood, and quickly said: “City Lord, you misunderstood. The envoy is not leaving the city, but coming in from outside!”

This…

Everyone was stunned again.

Weren’t they told that the envoy of the Mysterious Moon Palace had arrived in Sky Wolf City long ago and was already collecting evidence of their betrayal inside the city? How could they only just be entering from outside the city then?

At this moment, a Family Head asked: “City Lord, what should we do now?”

Ding Qingfeng didn’t answer this question. He directly took out a jade pendant from his space ring and activated it using spiritual power.

In the next moment, a man in a red robe appeared in the conference hall.

Seeing this man, Ding Qingfeng quickly said: “Greetings, Immortal!”

Seeing Ding Qingfeng pay his respects, the Family Heads instantly guessed the man’s identity and kneeled, saying, “Greetings, Immortal!”

Sikong Youpeng looked at Ding Qingfeng and asked: “What is it?”

Ding Qingfeng replied: “Immortal, the envoy from the Mysterious Moon Palace has arrived in Sky Wolf City; they just entered.”

Upon hearing Ding Qingfeng’s words, Sikong Youpeng was slightly surprised, having thought the envoy from the Mysterious Moon Palace had long arrived and was hidden within Sky Wolf City.
