Chapter 165 – Beast God Sect!

Early morning the next day.

The dawn light was faint.

Qin Yang entered the library and went to work as usual.

Xia He had been dead drunk last night, and Qin Yang himself had been slightly tipsy, so he had used “Close at Hand” to directly send both Xia He and the sports car back.

The guy was probably still lying in bed, fast asleep!

“Don’t drink and drive, safety first.”

Qin Yang yawned, holding Xiaobai in his arms, and leisurely swiped his card at the time clock. Suddenly, he noticed an unusual quietness around him.

“Hmm?”

He glanced around.

At this time of day, Li Qinghe should have already bounced over eagerly, greeting him warmly and offering breakfast…

“Did she not come to work again…”

Thinking this, Qin Yang extended his spiritual sense, covering every corner of the library. After careful confirmation, he indeed couldn’t find any trace of the girl.

Remembering what he had said to her yesterday,

He estimated…

The girl was pissed off.

Right now, she was probably in some corner working hard and grinding away!

“Not bad, not bad. At least she has some ambition.”

Qin Yang went to his slacking corner, pulled out a small stool and sat down, rather enjoying the peace and quiet.

Now that Li Qinghe wasn’t following him around, his ears were clear, and everything was calm.

This was a golden opportunity.

Perfect time to take a moment to comprehend the Laws of the Supreme Realm!

With this thought,

Qin Yang didn’t hesitate. He sent a mental message to Xiaobai to cover for him, then sank his consciousness into the Enlightenment Space, recalling the scene of the Masked Old Man’s self-destruction.

The next moment.

Bloody lightning appeared in the center of his mind, collapsing and expanding, simulating the desolate scene of the old man’s final moments before death, stirring the void to the point of explosion.

Buzz—

Law Power stirred.

Qin Yang focused his mind in meditation, capturing that faint ripple of explosive Law Power.

With each slow, measured breath, the void around him subtly cracked as well, layer upon layer like a mirror shattering, before being concealed by Xiaobai’s Illusion.

Breathe…

Time passed slowly.

After a while,

The simulation ended.

The old man self-destructed and died once more, swallowed by vast white light…

“Finally over, Master…

If you’d taken any longer, this Fairy would have broken!”

Xiaobai stuck out her pink tongue, feeling dizzy and unsteady, collapsing limply into Qin Yang’s arms. Her little fox legs were as soft as noodles, completely drained.

Using Illusion to conceal phenomena already required a great cost.

That brief period of maintaining the Illusion just now had completely drained her spiritual power.

Now,

With Qin Yang’s power growing more terrifying by the day,

Xiaobai had completely given up on any escape plans, deciding to become a sycophantic fox. She could almost see the day Qin Yang would break through.

“This should be about enough.”

Qin Yang opened his eyes, stroking Xiaobai’s head, feeling quite satisfied.

Having comprehended this much, the rewards from the old man’s explosion… were pretty much fully absorbed.

Now, everything was ready.

In the future, he only needed the right opportunity, and with that east wind blowing, he could take advantage of the situation to break through and truly step into the Supreme Realm!

……………

Meanwhile,

At Jianghai Martial Arts Academy.

In the top-floor office of the Soaring Ascent Building,

The aroma of tea wafted gently. Beneath a painting of the rising sun, Elder Li poured from a purple clay teapot, slowly filling a teacup, then handed it to Lin Mofeng, who sat before him.

“Mo Feng, why do you look so pale?”

Elder Li raised his white eyebrows slightly, somewhat puzzled.

Early this morning, Lin Mofeng had knocked on his office door, entered with a worried expression, his mind heavy, as if he had something important to discuss.

“Teacher…”Lin Mofeng accepted the teacup, staring at the tea leaf fragments floating on the surface with a hesitant expression. “Disciple has recently obtained some confidential information and feels somewhat concerned…”

“Concerned?”

Elder Li stroked his white beard and chuckled lightly. “What is there to be concerned about? Now that Sword God Senior has appeared in Jianghai, it indicates his willingness to assist Jianghai… We should be free from worries!”

Nodding, he continued, “Back when you, Mo Feng, were defending Sword God Valley, it was only thanks to Sword God that you managed to survive.”

“Yes, Teacher, I understand. But I came here today for another matter.”

Lin Mofeng set down the teacup and fixed his gaze intently on Elder Li, asking softly, “Teacher, have you ever heard of the Beast God Sect?”

The moment these words fell.

“Beast God Sect?”

Elder Li’s white eyebrows furrowed slightly.

He seemed to be searching his memories, and only after a long pause did he slowly speak:

“This old man has indeed heard of it. It is said that behind nearly all the heretical cultists in this world, the Beast God Sect is secretly pulling the strings.”

“They do not follow the righteous path of human ethics, but instead worship Star Beasts as supreme, attempting to use this to defy the Heavenly Law and revert to savage bestial nature.”

“This old man recalls they are all madmen who prove their Dao through slaughter…”

“Exactly, Teacher’s insight is profound! What I’ve learned aligns with your understanding.”

Lin Mofeng nodded gently upon hearing this, then suddenly shifted the topic. “In that case, has Teacher noticed how these doctrines and actions… bear some resemblance to the movements of the two heretical cultists from Sword Valley…”

“Resemblance?”

Elder Li’s expression shifted to surprise at these words, following his guidance to recall the characteristics of the Jianghai demonkin.

Proving Dao through slaughter, obsessive madness.

And also…

That beast-patterned mask worn by the Masked Old Man at Sword God Valley, which represented his obsession with Star Beasts!

As this thought emerged.

All the clues connected like threads.

Elder Li’s white eyebrows tightened, a sudden realization dawning on him. “Mo Feng, are you suggesting… the demonkin slain by Sword God Senior also came from the Beast God Sect?”

“Yes, through certain channels, I’ve already gained some understanding of the situation.”

Lin Mofeng nodded, flipping his palm upward and channeling Star Power to manifest starlight.

The next moment.

A Star Power projection materialized.

A surging Beast Tide churned and galloped across his palm, simulating a city-crushing scene. At the center of this Beast Tide, several figures could vaguely be seen hovering above, as if directing the onslaught.

“Teacher, this is footage transmitted from other cities. Due to special considerations, it hasn’t been made public by the authorities yet.”

Lin Mofeng rotated the Star Power projection and whispered, “According to this footage, those manipulating this year’s Beast Tide are being led by the Beast God Sect!”

“Those damned madmen!”

Upon hearing this, Elder Li instantly erupted in anger.

Every time a Beast Tide rolls in, it brings a catastrophic disaster that decimates living beings.

Families torn apart, homes destroyed, all hopes extinguished…

But only now did Elder Li realize with shock.

This was never a natural disaster, but a premeditated man-made calamity?!

“Teacher, now that Sword God Senior has slain two of their powerful members, I fear they won’t simply let this rest,”

Lin Mofeng said gravely. “If they seek revenge, they will likely gather more forces to deal with Jianghai Sword God.

When that time comes… the Beast Tide Jianghai City will face will undoubtedly be of catastrophic difficulty! We must prepare our defenses!”

“Hmph, defenses…”Elder Li sighed and sat back in his chair, his face weary. “Mo Feng, we’ve done all we can. But if the enemy comes with overwhelming force… then we can only place our hopes in Sword God Senior to turn the tide…”

His voice faded.

The office fell into complete silence.

Lin Mofeng looked at Elder Li’s troubled expression and didn’t continue speaking.

Truth be told.

Within this Beast God Sect.

They were not lacking in Supreme Realm experts either…
