Chapter 29 – The 108 floors of the Qing Yi Tower

Murong Lin’s rising aura gradually settled down at the fourth layer of the Manifestation realm.

Afterwards, he slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a deep breath before exclaiming in joy, “This ‘Evil of lifelessness, lawlessness and formlessness’ is indeed powerful, not only did it help me breakthrough, it also aided me in advancing through three small realms! With my strength at the fourth layer of the Manifestation realm, I should be the strongest amongst the younger generation of Yan, right?”

The ‘Flowering Steel Trees’ quickly congratulated, “Congratulations to master!”

Murong Lin waved his hands, signalling for them to stop.

“Enough! The two of you better break through to the Sky Reaching realm soon, by that time I’ll be able to do whatever I want. Right, where are we now?”

“Master, we have already entered the capital.”

“Oh?” Murong Lin lifted the curtains to check the surroundings, and he was indeed at the capital.

He didn’t know where exactly he was, but he could see the bustling crowd and the booming commerce around him. Small shops were selling and buying items, and there were also tall pavilions trying to invite passersby in.

This was the capital, the most luxurious place in Yan.

However, Murong Lin didn’t have any particular emotions towards such a sight, considering that this was his birthplace. Furthermore, he had seen cities in his past life that were more than a hundred times more luxurious than this place, it was natural that nothing here was interesting to him.

“Where are Murong Liu and Murong Ding?” Murong Lin asked.

“Master, Murong Ding has already returned to his palace while Murong Liu went to the main palace. We are heading towards the Red Forest Square.”

“Mm, alright, I wonder how much the news of the remnants at South Village and the events at the Hundred Flower sect is spreading.” Murong Lin mumbled with a curious tone.

After they had arrived at Red Forest Square, Murong Lin finally could see something familiar.

Bai Lao Bo stood respectfully at the Faith palace’s entrance, greeting Murong Lin on his return, “Your Highness, welcome.”

“Alright, get some people to clean up the place, I’ll head to the study first.” Murong Lin spoke as he walked, “Right, have you prepared the things I asked for?”

“Do not worry, your highness, it has been prepared.” Bai Lao Bo cupped his hands as he responded.

With a nod, Murong Lin turned his head and entered the study.

And Bai Lao Bo left as well.

“Anti, check my status window.” Murong Lin suddenly spoke.

Looking at the drastic changes in his system window, Murong Lin’s lips were slightly curled as he turned towards the imperial palace. With a cold laugh, he mumbled to himself, “It won’t be long before I reconcile my inner demons!”

With a wave of his hand, Murong Lin shouted towards the system, “Anti, summon the 108 floors of the Qing Yi Tower!”

“Yes!”

A flash of light appeared in front of Murong Lin, revealing three people.

Luckily, this was within Murong Lin’s study, and the door was tightly closed to avoid any suspicion.

At the same time, within the 32 counties of Yan, more than ten thousand people inexplicably appeared.

Within a forest in the Yan Xia country, a green silhouette appeared wearing a mask while standing on top of a tree branch. With the flicker, he dissipated into a green smoke.

Within the bustling city square in Yan Du country, a drunk man looked dumbfoundedly at the person that had just appeared across his table. In just the blink of his eye, the person disappeared even before he could react.

In the cold fortress of the Yan Du country, the fortress governor was just about to go to bed. Suddenly a human figure appeared in the bed before him, scaring him into circulating his spiritual power before he was swiftly killed by a green flash of light. Afterwards, the person on the bed simply kept the knife in their hands before glancing at the corpse on the ground. With a quick wipe of his face, he took on the appearance of the governor!

Yan Xiao county, Yan Liu county, Yan Nan county……

Such occurrences happened all over the thirty-two counties. While it was somewhat conspicuous, they were able to conceal themselves successfully under the aid of the system. Ultimately, the hundred-and-eight floors of the Qing Yi Tower were able to flawlessly descend into this world.

And the three men dressed in green clothing before Murong Lin were the top three floor masters of the Qing Yi Tower.

The floor masters Qing Miao Lou, Qing Sha Lou, and Qing Long Lou.

The three of them were all at the ninth layer of the Manifestation realm. Aside from them, there were five other experts at the ninth layer of the Manifestation realm scattered in the country.

“We greet master.” The moment the three had appeared and noticed Murong Lin, quickly kneeling as they cupped their hands.

“Rise.” Murong Lin examined the three of them. Their faces were disguised with masks, each with a unique design that was quite interesting to look at.

“Pass on my command for everyone to replace the heads of all of the influential forces in Yan; armies, county governments, clans, gangs, merchants, sects. Any influential force with any kind of military power must be replaced with our people. Do your best to ensure that everyone is able to replace one person each, they do not need to be very strong, they just need to disguise themselves well.”

Murong Lin instructed.

“Yes!” The three answered respectfully.

After thinking for a moment, Murong Lin spoke again, “After the replacement is done, start suppressing the experts in the Sky Reaching realm, the South Village army, the three great sects and the four great clans, especially the South Village King, Ning Wei Wu. Start rebellions for now, I will give further instructions when the time is right.”

“Yes!”

The three left to gather the Qing Yi Tower’s members within the capital, instructing them to pass on Murong Lin’s commands to the people scattered across the thirty-two counties.

“Da, da, da.” Murong Lin sat at the table, his fingers lightly tapping on the tabletop.

At this moment, the Blood Spirits arrived.

The light within the room dampened and the temperature dropped as four figures appeared suddenly. Covered in a red robe, the four of them respectfully knelt.

“We greet master.”

Murong Lin responded helplessly, “Rise.”

“Yes.”

“Did anything interesting happen recently?” Murong Lin asked.

“Master, after we ceased our production of the pills, the other influential forces have been investigating us. Luckily, with the appearance of Miss Ru Meng’er, we have successfully dispelled their suspicion towards us. Additionally, the clash of Miss Ru Meng’er and the South Village King in the remnants has allowed us the opportunity to find out that the Black River cult was actually under the command of the South Village King!”

“Black River cult? The Black River Cult with an enormous following?” Murong Lin was confused.

“That is correct, it is them. On the surface, the Black River cult has been going against sect disciples in these few years, but they were secretly devouring their influential forces, stealing a sizeable amount of resources and promising youths.”  

“Oh?” Spreading his divine senses, Murong Lin was able to quickly understand the situation.

“Aside from that, there is the annihilation of the Long clan in the Betan city that you have commanded for. Everything went smoothly, aside from the small hiccup that was the Long clan’s clan leader being at the Manifestation realm. With the aid of the puppets that master has given to us, we have completed your task successfully.”

“En, that’s good. How’s that woman, Ru Meng’er?”

“Master, Miss Ru Meng’er is about to break through the Origin realm, but it came with the cost of a great number of our subordinates’ lives.”

“En, keep her satisfied until she reaches the Origin realm. Right, I also have another task for all of you, let the suicide squad that I’ve created go first, here.” Murong Lin tossed a jade tablet and a bag of holding towards them.

“The task is specified within the jade tablet, you just have to follow its instructions.” Muruong Lin spoke as he stretched his body.

“Yes!” The four blood paladins bowed slightly before disappearing with the items in hand.

Standing up, Murong Lin walked towards the window and looked outside as he mumbled to himself, “It should be done soon.”

After admiring the scenery for a moment, he was interrupted by the voice of Bai Lao Bo coming from outside the study, “Your Highness, Ma Jian Chou requests a meeting.”
