Cultivation: I Inherite The Strongest Account In A Sect Simulator Chapter 31 – Ancient Moon City, Sudden Happening

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Jiang Yiming descended from the sky and slowly entered Ancient Moon City.

The streets in the city were bustling with activity.

Ancient Moon City was a city under the jurisdiction of the Divine Phoenix Empire.

However, it happened to be located at the border between the Divine Phoenix Empire and the Huoyun Sect.

It could be said that the small city was full of people making trips to and fro the Divine Phoenix Empire and the Huoyun Sect every day.

Although most of the people in this marginal area were mortals, there were also cultivators from both sides.

Of course, Jiang Yiming had his plans for coming to this small city.

Now that the Lingyun Sect and the Huoyun Sect had become mortal enemies, it would be difficult for them to recruit disciples within the Huoyun Sect's jurisdiction.

On the other hand, the relationship between Huang Chaoyu and the Divine Phoenix Empire was also hostile.

Therefore, Jiang Yiming could not go to the central cities of the Divine Phoenix Empire either.

As thus, he could only set his sights on a place like this where both sides did not care much about it.

Such a place could be considered a somewhere the good and the bad were jumbled togehter.

There were those sinners who ran between the two sides, and there were also quite a number of geniuses who wanted to seek opportunities on the other side.

Whether or not he could meet a genius would ultimately depend on fate.

However, Jiang Yiming was willing to give it a try.

After arriving at Ancient Moon City, Jiang Yiming asked someone where the most lively place in the city was.

It was a restaurant called Yunlai in the center of the city.

After Jiang Yiming thanked the person, he went straight to Yunlai Restaurant.

He chose a table by the window and sat down. He ordered a few jars of wine and began to drink alone.

On the surface, he was drinking alone, but his attention was actually focused on the customers at the side.

Generally speaking, cultivators from all over the world would usually gather in such a lively place to tell their stories.

Not only did Jiang Yiming want to take in disciples, but he also wanted to learn about the Huoyun Sect and the Divine Phoenix Empire.

The best place to go for purposes like this was naturally a restaurant like this!

Since Jiang Yiming entered the restaurant, he had heard all kinds of news.

Unfortunately, it had nothing to do with the two major factions, nor did it involve the news of any geniuses.

Jiang Yiming could only shake his head helplessly, feeling a little bored.

“Oh right, have you heard about the recent happenings in the Huoyun Sect?” At this moment, a bearded man suddenly spoke.

The customers sitting at the same table with him were momentarily stunned as they asked in puzzlement, “What could have happened in the Huoyun Sect?”

Upon hearing their words, Jiang Yiming's interest was immediately piqued.

The bearded man continued to speak, “Recently, a Nascent Soul Realm elder of theirs died!”

“What?!”

The moment these words were said, it was as if a huge rock had been thrown into a calm lake.

The surrounding customers surrounded the bearded man and stared at him.

“The death of a Nascent Soul Realm elder is a huge matter! Why did it happen? Could it be that someone has started a war with the fire cloud sect? Is it the Divine Phoenix Empire?” Immediately, a customer said.

The bearded man shook his head and said, “No, it's true that someone has started a war with the Huoyun Sect. However, it's a sect called the Lingyun Sect.”

“The Lingyun Sect? I've never heard of it. Have you?”

Many people shook their heads.

“What's going on? Don't keep us guessing. Tell us!”

“That's right. If you don't tell us, I'll be curious to death!”

Looking at the anxious looks of the crowd, the bearded man laughed and said slowly, “This Lingyun Sect was originally a fifth rank force under the control of the Huoyun Sect. But recently, for some unknown reason, the Lingyun Sect has produced an extremely powerful sect leader. Not only did the sect leader refuse to continue giving offerings to the Huoyun Sect, but he also killed a group of Huoyun Sect disciples. Just a few days ago, he even killed a Nascent Soul Realm elder whom the Huoyun Sect had sent to question them!”

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire restaurant instantly exploded with commotion.

“What? How can a fifth rank force have such an expert? Is this a rumor?”

“It's not a rumor. I know about this matter as well, and the many sects within the Huoyun Sect's territory also know about it.”

“If that's the case, how daring is the Lingyun Sect? They've offended the Huoyun Sect to an unforgivable point!”

“That's right. Now, there are more and more forces that are unsatisfied with the Huoyun Sect. Since there's someone who dares to provoke them now, I'm afraid the Huoyun Sect will come out in full force and make an example out of them.”

“Then the Lingyun Sect is destined to be doomed. After all, the Huoyun Sect has an Incarnation Realm ancestor.”

“Yes, yes, that's right. Let's stay far away from the Lingyun Sect. We must not bring trouble upon ourselves.”

…

Jiang Yiming could not help but feel a headache as he listened to their discussions.

Although the Lingyun Sect was indeed famous now, it was not a good name.

The Huoyun Sect was still a huge mountain that was pressing down on everyone.

No one dared to offend the Huoyun Sect, let alone get close to the Lingyun Sect.

The sects that came to visit previously probably only wanted the Lingyun Sect to be the first to take the lead in resisting the Huoyun Sect so they could just follow behind. If the situation was unfavorable, the Lingyun Sect would be the first to draw fire!

With this, Jiang Yiming had finally figured everything out.

But if that was the case, it would not be easy for him to recruit a new disciple.

After all, in the eyes of outsiders, the Lingyun Sect was doomed.

Who would join a doomed force? Unless that person had a death wish!

Just as Jiang Yiming was deep in thought, a commotion suddenly broke out in the restaurant.

A young man with disheveled hair and a dispirited appearance had come inside the restaurant to hide in a panic.

Behind him, several agile men in black were chasing after him.

When the customers present saw this scene, they quickly moved aside to avoid being caught in the crossfire.

Such pursuit was common in the world of cultivators. They were used to it.

As long as it didn't get them into trouble, they didn't care about who was right and who was wrong.

As such, the young man's route was revealed to his pursuers.

“Young master, don't run. You can't escape!” The leader of the pursuers looked at the sensible crowd and couldn't help but laugh.

The young man's expression was extremely ugly. He swept his gaze around.

Other than Jiang Yiming, who had his back facing this scene, the others had all retreated to the side. It was obvious that they had no intentions of interfering with the matter.

Seeing this, the young man's face turned cold as he said, “Wishful thinking! You bunch of traitors, I'd rather die together with you than be caught!”

“With just you?” The leader sneered.

In that instant, the leader of the pursuers suddenly attacked.

An invisible spiritual energy flying knife slashed towards the young man.

The young man's heart trembled, and he hurriedly dodged.

Thus, the spiritual energy flying knife went flying towards Jiang Yiming who was behind him.

“Be careful!” When the young man saw this scene, he hurriedly shouted.

He wanted to block the spiritual energy flying knife, but it was already too late.

In the next second, just as the flying knife was about to stab into Jiang Yiming's back, he suddenly moved.

The flying knife had cut the table in half.

If Jiang Yiming was just an ordinary person, he would have been cut in half by now.

Seeing that Jiang Yiming was fine, the young man immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

However, the group of black-clothed people frowned and suddenly felt a sense of unease.
