Chapter 984: Qingqing’s Sect, Nine Realms Awards, Messed With the Wrong Person! (1)
Not even Celestial Master of Yin-Yang could catch YUAN Mingchi’s eyes, let alone newly initiated first or second-rank Masters of Yin-Yang..
YUAN Mingchi stood as a legend in the Yin-Yang and Five Elements world.
He was fundamentally different from Yu Wu, who terrorized the Fujisan family.
Yu Wu was a battle maniac, breaking through with sheer force.
YUAN Mingchi, on the other hand, was an enchanting trickster.
YUAN Mingchi’s appearance was that of a beautiful young man, as clear and harmless as spring water, seemingly devoid of any threat.
But once people were lost in his smile, they would find themselves dead.
The Yin-Yang and Five Elements world often speculated who would win in a confrontation between YUAN Mingchi and Yu Wu.
The young Master of Yin-Yang pointed to several kneeling middle-aged men and continued, “See? Even the Celestial Masters of Yin-Yang of the Fujisan family have to kneel before Lord YUAN. If not for his presence here today, you wouldn’t even glimpse his true face.”
YUAN Mingchi had made no effort to disguise himself, his face fully exposed to the public’s gaze. In the thin sunlight, his smile was gentle, as beautiful as a serene breeze under the moon.
In just a moment, men and women of all ages seemed captivated by his clear, beautiful appearance.
Even JI Xingzhi stood frozen for a moment.
But being a Celestial Master of Yin-Yang, he quickly regained his composure and his expression changed, “Big brother, his cultivation is incredibly high!”
He was almost on par with the JI family’s great elder.
However, the JI family’s great elder was already quite old, while YUAN Mingchi was definitely under thirty!
It was foreseeable that he would reach even higher levels in the future.
No wonder people said that the nine disciples of Cloud Summit were each extraordinary, each stronger than the last.
YUAN Mingchi was only ranked fifth!
Si Fuqing ignored the young Master of Yin-Yang taunts and jeers.
She pressed down her cap and walked inside with JI Xingzhi, speaking casually, “Yes, his Yin-Yang techniques are masterful. He’s also skilled in astrology and fengshui. You should know that most people have one primary shikigami, but he has three.”
JI Xingzhi gasped, “What terrifying strength.”
Primary shikigami were different from ordinary ones.
Master of Yin-Yang above the fourth rank could easily summon wandering spirits as temporary shikigami.
But not every Master of Yin-Yang had a primary shikigami.
Only by condensing a primary shikigami could one become a Celestial Master of Yin-Yang.
If a primary shikigami was destroyed, the Master of Yin-Yang would be left with very little power.
JI Xingzhi cautiously glanced at YUAN Mingchi again and whispered to Si Fuqing, “Big brother, are you also wondering what kind of monsters the other eight disciples of the Cloud Summit are?”
What a terrifying sect it must be!
“No,” Si Fuqing thought seriously, “I’m considering that both YUAN Mingchi and the Duke of Muston are single. Should I introduce that emotionless girl Kusonoki Akatsuki to one of them?”
They were both her senior brothers; she couldn’t favor one over the other.
JI Xingzhi was utterly confused.
**
Meanwhile, YUAN Mingchi’s eyes suddenly sharpened, his brows furrowing.
He had just sensed a very familiar presence.
But before he could pinpoint it, it vanished.
Was it an enemy?
At his level of mastery in the power of Yin-Yang and Five Elements , very few presences could threaten him.
The only ones who could were his master, his elder senior brother, second senior brother, and little junior sister.
But if it were his elder senior brother, he wouldn’t hide.
YUAN Mingchi scanned the crowd with his keen eyes but found no trace of the presence.
His long eyelashes lowered, his thoughts racing.
It had to be someone he knew, someone who couldn’t reveal themselves in front of everyone without causing trouble.
He began to calmly eliminate potential candidates from his mind.
Finally, he found no match.
YUAN Mingchi frowned.
It seemed that, as Tan Jingmo had implied, he needed to stay here longer.
He understood Tan Jingmo’s underlying message. Asking him to buy sake was just a pretext; there was important intel in Eastern Mulberry that needed his attention.
YUAN Mingchi had no intention of engaging with anyone else. He followed the anxious elder to his lodging.
Not only was the Fujisan family present, but also the Sakai, Takizawa, and Natsukawa families of Eastern Mulberry.
Unfortunately for them, they were all turned away and didn’t even get to see YUAN Mingchi himself.
Seeing Fujisan Shinya arrive, the Masters of Yin-Yang present became alert.
“It’s Fujisan Shinya. He has indeed emerged from seclusion.”
