Chapter 2323: Seal Off Void City
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
After flying for more than three months, Su Mo came to Void City where Spatiotemporal City was located.
Void City was still bustling, like before. The Spatiotemporal City hung in the sky where the Time Gate and Space Gate were located.
Many people were gathering on the ground and there were tens and thousands of them.
The Time Gate and Space Gate opened every nine days and apparently, those people were waiting for the gates to open.
After Su Mo had asked around, he found out that they still had three days before the Time Gate opened.
He did not leave but went to a quiet corner and waited patiently.
There were many top powers around and they were profound. He had to be extra careful..
“Eh?”
Suddenly, Su Mo saw a familiar face at the corner of his eyes.
He was none other than Xu Yan, who had escaped from Su Mo’s hands.
Why is he here? Su Mo was surprised to see another youth standing beside Xu Yan and he looked powerful.
Immediately, Su Mo activated his Heaven Illusionary Pill. To the people, Su Mo’s looks and aura had changed.
After Su Mo had changed his looks and aura, he sat cross-legged on the floor and started to meditate.
Ren De Palace Master had told him that other than the Supreme Beings, no one could see through his disguise and thus he was not the least worried.
…
Xu Yan and Murong Leili stood among the crowd and looked around. They were using their Holy Senses to search for Qin Yun.
The two of them had followed the aura that Qin Yun had left behind in Holy Sword Mountain to Void City.
They heaved a sigh of relief when they sensed that Qin Yun had stopped at Void City.
However, after they had checked around, they could not find Qin Yun.
“Senior Brother Murong, there are so many people around and their auras are mingled with one another. We will not be able to find Qin Yun!” Xu Yan frowned as he was unable to sense Qin Yun’s presence.
Murong Leili’s face darkened as he had a similar sentiment. There were too many people around and with the various powerful aura coming together, it was difficult for them to sense Qin Yun’s aura.
Shortly, Murong Leili flew up to the sky.
He used his powerful Holy Senses to engulf the entire area and looked around carefully.
However, he was unable to locate Qin Yun even though he had combed the entire Void City.
“How can this be?” Murong Leili’s face darkened. Based on Qin Yun’s aura, he was in Void City. However, they could not find him.
The Time Gate and the Space Gate were not open yet and thus it was impossible for him to be in Spatiotemporal City.
“Senior Brother Murong, what shall we do?” Xu Yan asked Murong Leili as he flew up and stood beside Murong Leili. From his expression, Xu Yan knew that Murong Leili could not locate Qin Yun.
“Is he not Murong Leili?”
“That’s right! He is the Favored One from Ultimate Supreme Being Palace!”
“I’ve heard that Murong Leili’s Lightning Skill is powerful!”
Many of them recognized Murong Leili and they looked at him in amazement.
“Hahaha! Brother Murong, why did you not inform me that you are coming to Spatiotemporal Region!”
Suddenly, someone laughed heartily as the crowd made way for a group of people to walk through.
There were more than 10 people in the group and all of them had a powerful aura. The one taking the lead was a handsome young man in a royal robe.
“It’s Brother Gongsun!”
When Murong Leili saw the handsome young man, he immediately flew down with Xu Yan and landed in front of him, and cupped his fist at him.
The handsome young man was Gongsun Jia. He was a disciple of Eternal Shrine, which was one of the Overlords in Spatiotemporal Region.
On top of that, Gongsun Jia’s grandfather was the Palace Master of Eternal Shrine.
Gongsun Jia had great talent as well and he was one of the Favored Ones in the Deity Plane.
“Brother Murong, Spatiotemporal City will only be opened again after another three days. How about having a drink together?”
Gongsun Jia smiled and invited Murong Leili for a drink. It was the norm for geniuses to admire each other.
“This…!”
Murong Leili hesitated for a while and sent voice transmission to Gongsun Jia, saying, “Brother Gongsun, I’ll be frank with you. I’m looking for an enemy. He has just entered Void City but he has disappeared all of a sudden!”
Murong Leili was afraid that Qin Yun was hiding nearby thus he had communicated with Gongsun Jia using voice transmission.
“Oh? Is that so?” Gongsun Jia was surprised when he heard what Murong Leili had said.
“Brother Gongsun, this guy should be nearby and I suspect that he is hiding somewhere. Can Brother Gongsun help me to look for him?” Murong Leili asked Gongsun Jia. As Gongsun Jia was familiar with Spatiotemporal Region, it would be great if Murong Leili could get his help.
“Who is he?” Gongsun Jia asked through the voice transmission with a frown. He would not blindly help Murong Leili without finding out more information about his enemy.
After all, it would not do him any good if Murong Leili’s enemy was someone powerful.
“His name is Qin Yun. He is a traitor of Ultimate Supreme Being Palace who killed his fellow disciples!” Murong Leili replied Gongsun Jia through voice transmission.
“I see!”
After Gongsun Jia had pondered for a while, he told Murong Leili, “Brother Murong, I will instruct my men to seal off Void City and check on everyone who goes out of the city. In that way, you can be assured that he will not be able to escape!”
Gongsun Jia did not promise to help Murong Leili look for Qin Yun but he was willing to seal off Void City for him. After all, the two of them were merely acquaintances.
“That’s good enough!” Murong Leili responded as he cupped his fist at Gongsun Jia. Although Gongsun Jia was unwilling to help him hunt for Qin Yun, he was already a great help by sealing off Void City.
“Great!”
Gongsun Jia nodded. He turned to the man who was standing beside him and passed down the instruction through voice transmission.
Eternal Shrine had control over Spatiotemporal Region thus Gongsun Jia had no problem sealing off Void City.
The man then left hastily to inform the governor to seal off Void City.
After Gongsun Jia and Murong Leili had chatted for a while, they left together.
Su Mo frowned when he saw Murong Leili, Xu Yan, and Gongsun Jia leaving together. Although he had no idea what the content of their conversation was, he had a bad premonition.
Although Su Mo had no idea who Murong Leili was, he knew that Murong Leili and Xu Yan were there to look for him.
However, he was not the least worried as there were no Supreme Beings around.
There was only a handful of Supreme Beings around and in a powerful region, one might find only three to five of them.
Soon, Su Mo put away his thoughts and continued to wait for the opening of Spatiotemporal City.
As for Murong Leili and Xu Yan, they left with Gongsun Jia and headed toward the governor’s mansion.
After the governor had passed down the order for Void City to be sealed, an invisible array formed in the sky to prevent anyone from leaving. Those who wished to leave the city would be questioned.
Xu Yan told the governor about Qin Yun’s appearance, aura, and cultivation skills.
Once they found someone who looked like Qin Yun, they would capture him.
After everything had been settled, Murong Leili and Gongsun Jia went to a magnificent-looking inn.
“Brother Murong, since you are here, why not go to Spatiotemporal City?” In one of the private rooms, Gongsun Jia asked Murong Leili with a smile as they were having a drink.
“I have an important task to carry out and that is to capture Qin Yun!” Murong Leili replied with a sigh. He had not expected it to be such a hassle, capturing Qin Yun.
“Hoho, don’t worry. Based on what you have told me, this guy’s cultivation level is only at Rank 2 True God Realm. Although his combat strength is comparable to a Rank 3, it is impossible for him to escape from Void City!”
Gongsun Jia waved his hand and said nonchalantly, “In another three days, Spatiotemporal City will be opened. How about sparring at the Time Gate?
“Spar?” Murong Leili was shocked when he heard Gongsun Jia’s proposal.
“We will not be sparring based on our strength. There are 33 levels at Time Gate and we shall see who can go the furthest!” Gongsun Jia added. Gongsun Jia and Murong Leili had the same cultivation level and Gongsun Jia wanted to find out who had a higher level of comprehension.
“Alright! I hope by the time we are out, they will have captured Qin Yun!” Murong Leili nodded. Since there was no way for Qin Yun to escape, there was no point in him getting too anxious.
Moreover, Spatiotemporal City was indeed a place that was filled with treasure.
“Great. We shall enter Time Gate together!” Gongsun Jia smiled and toasted to Murong Leili.
The two of them toasted and drained their cups.
