Chapter 28- Incoming Danger

*Hey guys, there's an announcement at the end please make sure you read it, it's important.(This announcement was made on my other account, so if your reading this you can just ignore it)*

---------------------------

Several miles from the palace ruins, the young man from the Crescent Moon Sect was seen strolling leisurely through the forest.

As he walked a blazing aura that wasn't there before could be sensed coming from his body. His feet left burnt marks on the grassy terrain every time he stepped on the ground.

Hands clasped behind his back, he moved ahead in the direction of the palace ruins with steady and unhurried footsteps. Despite the danger of encountering high-rank demonic beasts, his face still had a tranquil expression, as if he was just taking a stroll through his own backyard.

Out of nowhere, a rough and grating to the ears voice could be heard.

"All you have to do is make physical contact with any one of them and I'll take care of the rest."

After the voice spoke, a response was followed by a different vice that sounded younger and smoother.

"If you're really who you say you are, why can't you just kill them right here and now and be done with it?"

The person with the younger voice sounded annoyed and impatient as he said that.

The rough and grating voice responded with, "Do you think killing someone like them is that simple? They undoubtedly have life-saving treasures given to them by their father and were most likely branded by their Saint realm expert's Divine Sense. Despite the fact that I'm in the Sage realm, a sliver of a Saint realm expert's Divine Sense is more than enough to kill me."

The younger voice grew silent for a moment before saying, "Then how should I go about making physical contact with one of them then?"

The rough voice responded, "You're on your own with that, the suppression technique I'm using to hide my aura from the Pocket Realm can only be used with my full concentration. If I took any action even if it's a small amount, the technique will become undone and cause the collapse of the Pocket Realm. And that's disadvantageous for both of us since the collapse of the Pocket Realm is enough to destroy my soul form, let alone you."

As the young man from the Crescent Moon Sect reached the large palace ruins, his lone figure had stepped across the treeline to come face to face with the broken walls of the Palace entrance.

As he walked his voice that turned out to be the younger voice sounded out, "Fine, I'll come up with something."

Strangely, the rough and grating voice was not coming from the empty surroundings, it was actually coming from the youth as well.

As the youth's mouth moved, he lets out a chuckle and spoke in that rough and grating voice from before, "Yes, that's right, something like this should be easy for you, you're the secret disciple of the Crescent Moon Sect's patriarch, after all, now it's time for you to show me why he thinks so highly of you, to go as far as to agree with my plans to place my soul within your body."

The scene of two different voices coming from the young man's mouth was so bizarre to witness that if someone was here to see it, they would think this young man had gone crazy. One of the voices was the young man's own, and the other sounded like an old man on the verge of dying

The young man snorted and said, "My master didn't have a choice, I will never forgive that bastard Longwei for causing my former teacher's death. Suddenly losing his cultivation and something he had worked his entire life on had driven him mad to the point where he saw no reason to live and committed suicide. That son and father can go to hell! I want to see them and everyone in their clan get brutally murdered!!"

As the youth spoke his eyes became bloodshot while he tighten his fist behind his back so hard a trickle of blood started coming from his palms.

The old and grating voice laughed, which again looked weird coming from the young man, and said, "Don't worry, if everything goes according to my plan, then those two brothers won't make it out of this Pocket Realm alive. And as for the Wu Clan's destruction, they might have increased their experts at their borders, but my Fire Phoenix Clan on the Beast Continent is more than prepared to carry out a full-scale invasion of the Wu Continent. At that time, your Crescent Moon Sect and their allied sects and clans would need to help our Fire Phoenix Clan in their destruction. And as per our agreement, the Crescent Moon Sect will become the new rulers of the continent."

If someone had heard those casually spoken words, their heart would skip a beat. The Crescent Moon Sect was actually working with the Demonic Beast Continent to overthrow the Wu Clan. Some major upheaval was about to occur on the Wu Continent.

The rough voice spoke up again, "However, what you did when you said those words about one of the young masters of the Wu Clan, slightly ruined our plans. The Wu Clan now knows that your patriarch is attempting a breakthrough and needs the Heavenly Pallet, if anything happens to the patriarch's sons now, the Crescent Moon Sect would come under suspicion."

The young man then said, "It doesn't really matter, all it will be is suspicion. As long we're able to kill them without leaving a trace then the Wu Clan won't be able to hold us accountable. Even if they try to attack us without proof of our involvement, we can use that as an excuse to gather more sects and clans on our side in the name of stopping the Wu Clan from abusing their power. Though they're the Wu Clan and are the third most powerful force on planet Daiyu, they still won't dare antagonize all the sects and clans into a rebellion. They might be able to win, but it would cost them a significant amount of their resources and weaken them in the process. If that's the case then they'll just become a fish on the chopping block for the major powers like yours, and the Tang Dynasty that's eyeing their Pocket Realms."

The soul within the young man's body said, "That's impressive of you to be able to grasp the inner workings of the major powers so well, I kind of see why your sect's patriarch took you in as a disciple despite your slightly above average cultivation talent."

A cold smirk could be seen at the corner of the young man's lips as he stepped through the front courtyards, and made his way towards the back of the palace ruins.

~Announcement~

So, you're here after reading this chapter right? If you skipped to here without reading then your device will start malfunctioning if you don't, so hurry up and get to reading….

Anyway, for my dedicated readers I first wanted to say sorry for the somewhat short chapter, this chapter is like one of those hype man you'll see at rap gigs, it's basically for building up tension, and hopefully, it did.

Secondly, I'd like to announce that I have signed a contract to monetize my chapters on Webnovel. Remember when I said that Webnovel reached out to me and offer me a contract? Well, that was an exclusive contract, the one where they own your copyrights. Don't get me wrong, if I hadn't already signed a contract that prevents me from taking their offer I might have become a contracted author for them, but that's impossible now.

So, I signed a non-exclusive contract with --- to get my chapters monetized on Webnovel, however, the catch is that they can't link my current account with theirs so re-uploading chapters is a must.

I know this sounds like horrible news, but it's mostly for me and not for you lovely readers, you'll still get to continue reading my chapters it's just that it might be on a different account. Same title, same synopsis, same book cover, same chapters, same everything.

I know some of are going to hate the fact that my chapters are going to become paid to read but it shouldn't come as a surprise after all Webnovel is a paid-to-read website, every book on here becomes pay to read chapters eventually. But you lovely readers shouldn't be worried about locked chapters for now, I'm not planning to lock my chapters as soon as I start using a different account, I think my book is a little bit too early for that when compared to where other authors start theirs.

So guys all I'm saying is that my chapter updates are going to be on a different account on Webnovel. For the 100 lovely readers who have added this to your libraries, you won't be able to get chapter updates on that book, you guys and all the other probably 86,000 silent readers would need to do a quick search of our book title to see the other account.

Though this is from my understanding, not sure if that's accurate, maybe this account would just be reset and then I'll have to start uploading again. I'm currently in contact with my Licensee so if that information is off I'll let you guys know here.(Don't worry this is the correct account, just seems like a waste to delete this announcement)

Oh, and did I mention I'll be on a two-week hiatus?… haha I think I should've started with that oops.

It's just some college stuff no big deal, I'll be writing chapters whenever I can during that time. When I come back I'll probably be dishing out two or three chapters a day in the first week I'm back.

Well, see ya my lovely readers!! Hopefully, I'll see you all in two weeks, Bye!! ~waves gb~
