Chapter 1361: Chapter 575: The Turmoil Over One Sword’s Identity Being Exposed (Part 2)

Whether this matter is true or false, tearing the veil off now and pushing Qin Ming out into the open will definitely stir up no small waves, and could even trigger a bloody tragedy.

This will undoubtedly make all sides scrutinize Qin Ming, with all kinds of gazes converging on him.

Those radicals, and those who have grudges against him, are very likely to move because of this, posing a serious threat to his personal safety.

Since they are enemies, and they know that the opponent’s future potential is boundless, how could they possibly allow him to grow? They will definitely try to cut off his path ahead of time.

Yao Ruoxian stood there slim and graceful, put down the jade cup sloshing with fine wine, her expression grave, and said, "In the Da Yu Imperial City, this kind of talk is clamoring to the heavens; it can’t be suppressed at all."

This is no good thing; someone with ulterior motives casually loosed a single arrow, and it brought out such a surging, grand-scale rhythm.

A portion of people really are suspicious now, linking Qin Ming and One Sword together.

No need to think too hard; this matter has already spread everywhere, and many people are talking about it.

For Qin Ming, this is not a chance to become famous, but something that may be accompanied by a life-and-death crisis.

Tang Yushang’s ability to regulate her emotions was top-tier; she returned to that otherworldly, untouched-by-mortal-smoke demeanor, and spoke seriously: "When someone with ulterior motives says you’re very strong, you’d best be even stronger than they imagine."

Qin Ming nodded. Breaking through and becoming a Grandmaster had long been the foremost matter in his heart.

Cheng Cheng said, "This is quite thorny. That hidden man is shooting at targets in the Void; this is guiding others’ aim, drawing all kinds of stray arrows. His mind is truly venomous."

Everyone was very concerned and asked Qin Ming about his experiences in Black and White Mountain.

In fact, Qin Ming also wanted to ask them about that kind of formless gathering-and-scattering method; that person descended as nothing but a wisp of smoke and haze, made a simple probe, and then vanished into thin air.

Yao Ruoxian said, "That shows he’s very fearful of Black and White Mountain, afraid the dog... worried the Beast God will trace him back."

The Dog Sword Immortal’s prestige was flourishing now; the Fourth Princess of Great Yu had the words on her lips and hurriedly changed them in panic.

Tang Yushang’s Dai Mei brows knit slightly, and she said, "Without a doubt, him using that so-called Treasure Mirror to shine on Qin Ming was just for show. He didn’t need a result; merely performing that act was enough, so he could make a fuss over it and stir up wind and rain."

Qin Ming naturally understood. Someone wanted to cause trouble; even if the mirror were shone on a random stone, it would be reason enough. Strictly speaking, there was no need for him to appear there at all.

He figured this was all posturing for others to see; at the time there might well have been observers watching from afar.

Qin Ming said, "I’m quite interested in that kind of method of his. Have any of you studied it?"

Mainly, he had three Bodies in his hands, all Daoist Bodies, Divine Embryos; he didn’t feel bad using them. But if he entered one with his consciousness and someone intercepted and killed it, damaging his Spirit, the price would still be very high.

Whereas if he used a wisp of "smoke and haze" that didn’t implicate the main body to drive it, then it truly would be unstained by causality.

After that, the people present began to discuss the Miao Techniques in this Domain.

Mr. Pei came from the Immortal Road, Cheng Cheng from Esoteric Buddhism, Yao Ruoxian from the Da Yu Dynasty; naturally, they had been exposed to many classics.

As for Tang Yushang, there was no need to even mention her; she hailed from Tai Xu, a descendant of the Lord of Yujing, and the Secret Techniques she had studied were astonishing.

Very soon, Qin Ming was on his way. He even used his existing True Scriptures, like the Sixth Page Jade Book—Heart Suppressing Scripture, to temporarily cut out a single avatar.

However, this was ultimately his own Power of the mind; he was unwilling to expend it lightly.

He combined Immortal Path Techniques, Esoteric Skills, records from the Imperial Secret Library, and the Tai Ruins Classics, and pondered out a similar shadow that did not stain itself with causality, possessed decent combat strength, and could briefly remain in the world.

In the end, the topic returned to this matter itself.

Those present were all old acquaintances and friends, all worried that Qin Ming would run into trouble. They all invited him in turn, asking him to go hide for a while in their ancestral courts.

Qin Ming shook his head and said, "It’s fine. Black and White Mountain is the Beast God’s territory."

If even Shuangshu Village was facing crisis, then the whole of Ye State would no longer be safe. He might as well leave for distant lands, drifting into a Mysterious Realm.

For a moment, he thought of Li Qingyue and Jiang Ran. How were they now? They should already have found the Mysterious Lady Martial Hall and Bajing Palace, right? He didn’t know if they could adapt.

Mr. Pei said, "Back then at Silver River Gorge, One Sword even helped Brother Qin take action, killing Master diniu. You two have a good relationship; you should find him as soon as possible and ask him to help refute the rumors."

Bai Mengxin thought to herself, how to find him? They’re the same person. Unless Brother Ming performs One Qi Transforms Three Pure Ones and has all his identities stand out at once.

Yao Ruoxian shook her head and said, "This isn’t something that needs explaining. That person is deliberately stirring up a crisis and will definitely have other nasty tricks."

The few people present all understood very clearly that, at a time like this, suddenly lifting the lid without any evidence was absolutely malicious—erecting a ’flag’ over Qin Ming to draw blood and Fire.

This method was indeed effective.

Just like now, even Yao Ruoxian, Mr. Pei, and Cheng Cheng all had a sliver of doubt. Could One Sword really be Qin Ming?

They hurriedly shook their heads. It didn’t quite add up; how long had he been in Cultivation? And he could already slay a Grandmaster? That was too horrifying.

At this moment, the outside world was in an uproar, a great storm erupting.

Qin Ming is One Sword? People were hotly debating it, and it had become a focal topic in a very short time. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

"Truly vicious!" At Shanhai Academy, Yu Gen Sheng, upon hearing the news, felt anger surge from his heart and suddenly sat up from his sickbed.

At the Cui Family, Cui Chongxiao, who had just finished practicing the Body Transformation Miracle, wore a gloomy expression. Lately his cultivation had suffered setbacks, and it was very hard for him to maintain the state of mind as calm as still water. Now he kept muttering to himself, insisting, "Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

Of course, this couldn’t be considered a one-sided disaster either.

The Old Grandmasters of the rebirth road were united in indignation, itching to form a Protect Qin Alliance to face the crisis.
