Chapter 449: Chapter 302: The Unfortunate Black Robed Man, Dispel the Calamity_2
This time in the Holy City, too many things had happened.
Whether it was the existence of Origin Energy or the appearance of individuals from the Demon Path, he must rush back to report as soon as possible.
Especially regarding Lu Qing, the exceptional individual, that was of utmost importance.
Watching as the Yangming Taoist and others left hastily until they were out of sight, Lu Qing withdrew his gaze and walked toward the direction of the tower.
Other Innate Realm Experts naturally also wanted to make his acquaintance.
But when they thought about how Lu Qing had killed Xuanming and others, having completely offended the lineage of Suspended Mountain,
who knew what kind of reaction Suspended Mountain would have afterwards.
Making connections with Lu Qing now, if by chance they were to be held in grudge by Suspended Mountain, would it not be a loss that outweighed the gain?
Thinking of these, those experts who had originally wanted to befriend Lu Qing immediately suppressed their thoughts.
They could only watch as Lu Qing slowly walked away.
Just as Lu Qing entered the tower, he saw a small figure throwing herself at him.
He extended his hand to catch her and felt Little Yan’s body trembling lightly, her head buried in his embrace, not willing to look up.
“It’s okay now, isn’t your brother still here and well?”
Lu Qing gently patted the little one’s back, consoling her in a soft voice.
“Brother, Little Yan was very scared just now.”
Little Yan’s head remained buried in Lu Qing’s embrace for a long time before she muffledly spoke.
Her voice carried a hint of crying.
As for what she was afraid of, it went without saying.
Lu Qing’s hand paused slightly before once again soothingly stroking the little one’s back.
He said in a gentle voice, “This time it was an accident, brother promises you, from now on, he won’t do such dangerous things anymore, okay?”
“Then let’s pinky swear.” Little Yan’s head still didn’t rise.
After the siblings completed their pinky swear, Little Yan finally broke into a smile through her tears.
Seeing that Lu Qing had comforted Little Yan, the others then came forward.
The first thing Lu Qing did was to bow in apology to the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master:
“Tower Master, I was careless for a moment and destroyed the courtyard, please forgive me.
All the losses, I will compensate double.”
“Haha, it’s just a mere courtyard, what’s the harm if it’s destroyed.”
The Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master’s face showed no sign of anger; he even chuckled.
“Rather, Young Master, you have allowed us to witness the extraordinary phenomenon of a Heavenly Tribulation; frankly, I feel I have benefited.”
The words of the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master were not a mere courtesy but came from the heart.
Being able to witness the legendary Tribulation Clouds up close and feel the Tribulation Qi within,
For a cultivator like him who pursued the path of calculation and divination, it was an enormous opportunity.
After all, the way of divination excels in calculating all things, avoiding tribulations, seeking benefits and averting harms.
And Heavenly Tribulation, was regarded as one of the most formidable tribulations between heaven and earth, related to the operation of the Heaven and Earth Rules.
The Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master had observed Lu Qing crossing the tribulation from beginning to end and sensed a trace of the genuine operation of the heavenly mechanisms.
It had greatly benefited him, and he even faintly felt as if the realm of cultivation that he had not broken through for a long time also showed a slight sign of movement.
How could he possibly blame Lu Qing in such a case.
After hearing the explanation from the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master, Lu Qing was finally able to relax a bit.
However, he still decided that when he left, he would leave something behind to compensate the Tianji Building.
“You all wait here for a while; I need to go out and handle the situation outside.”
The tribulation that Lu Qing had undergone had caused no small disturbance.
In addition to that, all the people from Suspended Mountain had died here.
If it was not handled properly, even they, the Tianji Building, would have a lot of troubles.
Immediately, the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master asked Lu Qing and the others to hide in the tower first while he went out to handle the aftermath.
After the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master left, Lu Qing then said to the elder doctor, “Master, your unworthy disciple has caused you concern.”
Previously, Lu Qing had sensed that if it weren’t for the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master’s intervention, his master had almost been unable to restrain himself several times, wanting to show up to protect him.
“It’s good that you’re unharmed.” The elder doctor nodded, not saying much more.
On the other hand, Ma Gu and Wei Zian, with excited faces, gathered around Lu Qing, discussing the shock and concern they had felt in their hearts just now.
As for Hu Zezhi, she stood quietly to the side, smiling as she watched Lu Qing and the others.
Lu Qing and his disciple Ma Gu chatted; when his gaze fell on Hu Zezhi,
He couldn’t help but exclaim, “Master, Mr. Zhi Rui, look at the black energy on Miss Hu’s forehead.”
The elder doctor and Lin Zhirui both looked towards Hu Zezhi’s forehead and were also taken aback.
It turned out that, unbeknownst to them, the dark energy between Hu Zezhi’s eyebrows had already disappeared.
“Mr. Lu, could it be that the dark energy on my body has become even more intense?”
Seeing the three of them looking at her, Hu Zezhi suddenly became somewhat panicked.
“No.” Lu Qing noticed her flustered appearance and said hurriedly, “It’s the cluster of dark energy between your eyebrows that has completely vanished.”
“Vanished?” Hu Zezhi said, hardly daring to believe it.
“It has indeed vanished,” the elder doctor confirmed with a nod.
“But why? What exactly is Miss Hu’s tribulation, and how could it have been resolved out of the blue?” Lin Zhirui asked, puzzled.
Lu Qing thought of the Black Robed Man who had fled earlier and suddenly had an epiphany.
He slowly said, “I suspect that Miss Hu’s tribulation comes from two sources.”
Everyone turned to look at him.
Lu Qing continued, “The first is the opportunity from within the white vortex.
The opportunity that emerged from the vortex seeks out those with whom it has destiny.
