Chapter 771: Chapter 367 One Year Later_1

If it weren’t for the fact that this guy felt exactly like the Wu Gang he had known before, he would have doubted that the person before him was an imposter.

Qin Shou also understood that taking the Black Demon Box was definitely not a shortcut; if it were, it would be a shortcut to death.

So, Qin Shou resigned himself to fate.

With a wave of his hand, Wu Gang gathered everyone into the palm of his hand and then once again initiated the Starry Sky Walk.

As they rushed through, Qin Shou indeed saw many Black Mirror Soldiers wandering in the starry space, but these scattered weaklings didn’t whet Qin Shou’s appetite enough to go out and hunt.

They were now single-mindedly hurrying back home, naturally, they wouldn’t go out of their way for a few small soldiers.

How vast was the boundless stars of the universe?

Qin Shou didn’t know, not even Wu Gang had a clear idea.

Because the furthest they had ever been was to a blank area void of stars, they never ventured beyond that.

Even so, even at Wu Gang’s pace, it took them nearly a year to get back!

When he saw that gigantic heavenly gate again, tears nearly fell from Qin Shou’s eyes; he had almost gone mad during that year!

Of course, that year wasn’t entirely wasted for Qin Shou.

For the first time, he could sit down quietly and thoroughly study runes, the great path of heaven and earth, and his own body.

In his free time, he would discuss cultivation matters with Hong He and Wu Gang. In one year, the countless insights he had accumulated were completely transformed into his own power.

At the same time, Qin Shou also learned some witchcraft from Hong He. There was no choice, as the battle he was going to face upon returning would be fierce, and he needed to enhance his strength as much as possible.

Of course, another reason he couldn’t wait was that he was hungry!

Not just him, the entire Witch Clan was starving!

Because that damn rabbit had eaten all the food they had prepared!

The way they looked at Qin Shou was filled with a hungry gleam; if it weren’t for the fact that they couldn’t beat him, Qin Shou might have been stewed by now.

"Gentlemen, go ahead with your business, I’m heading home to take a look!" Qin Shou could no longer hold back and dashed away, sprinting towards the distant Moon!

Wu Gang looked towards Hong He and the others and asked, "Where are you going?"

The people were about to speak when a door opened in the void, and an old person walked out, "Now that you’re back, follow me."

Hong Shan was about to say something, but Hong He stopped him, speaking anxiously, "Yes, Elder Mengpo."

Then Hong He, Hong Shan, and the rest of their people entered through the gate one after another.

Mengpo looked up at Wu Gang, bowed respectfully, and said, "Sir, won’t you come and sit for a while?"

After thinking for a moment, Wu Gang nodded and said, "Sure, I would also like to meet the giants of yesteryear. By the way, I saw your husband."

Along the way, Wu Gang and Qin Shou had chatted quite a bit, so naturally, he knew about Mengpo and Nan Wuzui, hence the remark.

After listening to Wu Gang’s account, Mengpo nodded and said, "He’s still the same old self, it’s good that he’s okay. Let’s go, we shouldn’t keep the lady waiting."

Wu Gang nodded and followed Mengpo into the main gate.

Meanwhile, outside the Moon Palace.

"Lady Chang’e, let me tell you, this trip is dangerous for the Rabbit. Have you even considered what’s out there? The Black Mirror! It might contain my own self! And what’s my level? I’m on the Investiture of the Gods, a Golden Immortal! The Black Mirror version of me hasn’t been listed on the Investiture, so it’s bound to have skyrocketed in strength, maybe even to the level of a Great Golden Immortal or higher!

In here, I am the embodiment of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and faith, I would bleed for Rabbit as a true brother! But that version of me in the Black Mirror must be a ruthless, murderous fiend! Facing the Rabbit... we’re talking about weapons not being nearly sufficient!

Think about it, what’s the level of the Rabbit?

Coming up against me or someone even stronger, in such a terrifying battle, can he possibly survive?" Tianpeng Marshal ranted while sitting on the stone steps outside the Moon Palace.

Chang’e’s voice came from inside, "Last time you said he wouldn’t come back, but didn’t he return just fine? Tianpeng Marshal, if you have nothing better to do, please leave. No matter what happens to Yu’er, I’ll be waiting here."

Tianpeng Marshal shook his head and said, "Last time? Last time it was Emperor Gouchen who unilaterally wanted to kill the damn Rabbit, and nobody actually helped him deliver the fatal blow. Plus, a bunch of people came running to plead for leniency, even clashing with Gouchen. If I remember correctly, the kid with the big head even got his father, Emperor Qinghua of the East, involved. What could Gouchen do then? Most importantly, as I’ve heard, something big happened last time; I’m not clear on the details. But this is different than last time; this time it’s a fight against the Black Mirror, with all those unblinking, murderous fiends on the other side! What’s more, I’ve heard that even Saints are involved with the Black Mirror. Now, tell me, if a Saint steps in, who could survive that?"

Clang!

A sound of something breaking and a girl’s voice asking, "Sister Chang’e, are you alright?" came from inside the main gate.

Upon hearing this, Tianpeng hurriedly got up and knocked on the door, calling out, "Lady Chang’e, are you alright? Do you need me to come in and check? My medical skills are pretty formidable!"

"Thank you for your concern, Tianpeng Marshal, I’m unharmed. Please, if you could continue to gather information about Yu’er," said Chang’e.

Tianpeng Marshal smacked his lips and replied, "I’ll definitely keep asking around for you... Ah... Lady Chang’e, I know you must be feeling down. Why don’t you come over to my place? It’s quite lively there."

"How lively is it?" suddenly, a voice asked.

Tianpeng Marshal instinctively replied, "It’s booming with drums and gongs... Huh... Who’s there?"

Then he suddenly realized the voice seemed to be a man’s and it was coming from behind him!

Tianpeng Marshal spun around, only to see no one!

Sweat beaded on Tianpeng Marshal’s forehead as he stammered, "Impressive skills, being able to hide right under my nose. It’s not honorable to skulk in the shadows; if you’re brave enough, show yourself! Let me tell you, you might think the Moon is full of women, but if you dare cause trouble here, you’ll be making an enemy of me, Tianpeng Marshal, and the entire Heavenly Court! You’re as good as dead!"

"When did you go blind?" the voice sounded again.

Tianpeng Marshal was startled and looked down in the direction of the sound, only to see a Rabbit, contemptuously looking at him while nibbling on a carrot.

"Rabbit... Rab... Rabbit?!!" Tianpeng Marshal leaped back in shock, nearly tumbling over the wall into the courtyard!

Qin Shou grabbed him swiftly and without any explanation, started dragging him towards a secluded patch of bushes, saying, "C’mon, let’s go somewhere private to talk properly. I’ve been away recently, and you seem pretty active around here."

"No, no, no... I, I was just looking after your family because you hadn’t returned," Tianpeng Marshal howled in protest. But what could he do? As soon as Qin Shou made his move, it felt like all his Yuan Qi had been sealed; without his Yuan Qi, he was just an ordinary person.
