Sect: Starting with Comprehending Thunder Skill Chapter 1472: Knowing There Are Tigers on the Mountain, Yet Heading for the Tiger’s Den

Chapter 1472: Chapter 617: Knowing There Are Tigers on the Mountain, Yet Heading for the Tiger’s Den

In the “Celestial Net Sea Region,” it is considered quite a well-known small commerce association.

But this is one of Yue Wuya’s aliases.

As an undercover agent, Yue Wuya is well aware of the saying about a cunning hare having three burrows. His disciples and followers also understand the ancestor’s thoughts, each having trained at these associations and branches.

This time, the disguise was so well done that not even Li Yunjing could detect anything amiss.

As they sailed towards “Celestial Net Island,” they hadn’t gone far when they saw several warships bearing the “Celestial Net Dao Sect” flags coming through the waves from the distant horizon.

Li Yunjing stood at the bow, discreetly observing the approaching warships of “Celestial Net Dao Sect.”

He completely concealed his aura, disguising himself as an ordinary steward in the Foundation Establishment Third Heaven.

“Stop the ship for inspection!”

A Golden Core Cultivator stepped onto a flying sword, followed by more than ten Foundation Establishment disciples.

Yue Wuya immediately put on a flattering smile and approached: “Immortal Master, we are from ‘Mingjing Commerce Association,’ having just transported some spiritual materials from ‘Cuuyun Island.’

“‘Mingjing Commerce Association’?”

The Golden Core Cultivator swept his suspicious gaze over the crowd, “Take out your waist tokens and commerce association licenses for inspection!”

“Yes!”

Yue Wuya nodded and bowed, retrieving a gilded waist token and a leather dossier from his storage bag, the edges of the token engraved with “Mingjing Commerce Association’s” cloud pattern insignia.

When the dossier was opened, it revealed the trade permit stamped with the red seal of the “Celestial Net Sea Region” Commerce Association’s headquarters.

This permit was issued by the “Celestial Net Dao Sect” and had official endorsement.

The Golden Core Cultivator scanned the dossier with his divine sense, momentarily pausing at the entry for “exclusive sale of low-tier spirit grass,” then suddenly stared at the bulging fabric at Li Yunjing’s waist: “What’s tied to your waist?”

“In response to the Immortal Master, I was injured as a child and must pad my waist with a brace to stand for long periods.”

Li Yunjing’s heart tightened, but he maintained a simple and honest smile on his face.

What he had wrapped was the “Boundary-Breaking Sword”!

Who would have thought this person would not inspect the cargo but rather fixate on an item he carried with him? This was beyond Li Yunjing’s expectations.

He raised his hand to untie the fabric, but the Golden Core Cultivator stopped him with a flick of his sleeve: “Forget it, don’t dirty my eyes.”

The cultivator casually tossed back the dossier, snorting coldly, “Scram!”

“This person is named Wang Qi, the Celestial Net Dao Sect’s outer sect inspection envoy, notorious for his greed and avarice.”

After the spiritual boat set sail again, Yue Wuya wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and transmitted a message to Li Yunjing: “Earlier, when he scanned you with his divine sense, I placed ten middle-grade spirit stones under the dossier.”

Upon hearing this, Li Yun raised an eyebrow, suddenly realizing.

So this person found an excuse to extort money!

Three days later, the spiritual boat passed through several inspections and finally arrived at the “merchant ship anchorage” off the coast of “Celestial Net Island.”

The journey was not smooth, but fortunately, such inspections wouldn’t involve a Nascent Soul Realm Master; regular Golden Core Realm Elder-led teams simply couldn’t notice any anomalies.

Why wouldn’t “Celestial Net Dao Sect” dispatch a Nascent Soul Realm Master?

No matter how powerful “Celestial Net Dao Sect” is, they wouldn’t have the resources to deploy experts of that level scattered across the vast, boundless sea, inspecting each ship.

Li Yunjing stared at the tall watchtower on the island, its spire flashing with a dim light, making him quite nervous.

If discovered at this moment, they would truly be doomed.

The one overseeing “Celestial Net Island” is a Divinity Transformation ancestor!

“‘Mingjing Commerce Association’ has a shop in the west of the island, let’s rest there first and then think of a way to contact ‘Haiyuan Pavilion’ people.”

Yue Wuya pointed at the densely packed shops in the distance: “Once ‘Haiyuan Pavilion’ has handed over their tasks, we can pull some cargo and continue to head out to sea.”

“Okay! Through other methods, head east continuously, bypass the ‘Celestial Net Sea Region,’ and see if there’s any way to return to the ‘Bihai Palace’ sea region from the north and south directions.”

Li Yunjing nodded.

Given the current situation, they can only choose to take a large detour, spending three to five years before returning to “Bihai Palace.”

Directly passing through the “Celestial Net Sea Region” is absolutely impossible!

If Li Yunjing’s identity is exposed, the experts of “Celestial Net Dao Sect” will surely be guarding the border, leaving him no chance to escape.

Li Yunjing naturally knew how to make the right choice.

After Li Yunjing and Yue Wuya discussed, they held a meeting to instruct the subordinates, preparing to disembark.

As soon as the group stepped onto the dock, they heard a commotion ahead.

Dozens of “Celestial Net Dao Sect” disciples were rushing forward.

“Make way!”

The disciples of “Celestial Net Dao Sect” were very aggressive, swinging their whips, and some people in the crowd couldn’t dodge in time and were lashed, screaming repeatedly.

“Heh heh! Those who sin will not live!”

Li Yunjing sneered and avoided these disciples, thinking disdainfully.

Knowing this kind of behavior, the cultivators from all sides of the “Celestial Net Sea Region” although angry and unable to speak out, hold a deep-seated grudge. When “Celestial Net Dao Sect” is at its peak, there’s naturally nothing to say.

But if “Celestial Net Dao Sect” were to decline, those forces would certainly, like wolves, frantically tear them apart in revenge.

This kind of scene made Li Yunjing quite happy.

On “Celestial Net Island,” “Celestial Net Dao Sect” has this kind of style, not to mention other places.

After bypassing layer upon layer of inspections and paying a sufficient amount of spirit stones, Li Yunjing, Yue Wuya, and their group finally successfully arrived at “Mingjing Commerce Association’s” residence.

Once everyone settled in, Li Yunjing chose to go out to gather some information.

With enough experience, Yue Wuya could manage the transactions and undertake the tasks here to seize the chance to set out to sea.

“Celestial Net Island” was sufficiently prosperous, comparable to a continent, and within the city on the docks, he witnessed the formidable presence of “Celestial Net Dao Sect.”
