Chapter 631: Discovered a Mental Case (1/2)

At night, the palace at the summit of Tianqing Peak was still brightly lit. Elder Tianqing was sitting straight on a big chair located at the end of the palace hall. Below, several trusted subordinates and elite disciples including Son of Heaven Jin Hong was standing.

Other than Heavenly Yao Peak where Heavenly Empress resided, in the entire Heavenly Yao Sect, this Tianqing Peak was the highest peak. This tall peak was also very steep, even a flying bird couldn’t look over it. The three sides of this peak were precipitous cliffs that were hard to climb. Looking from the distance, this peak resembled a towering sharp sword. Its momentum was threatening and the worldly spiritual qi on this peak was especially dense. It was a treasured land for cultivation within Heavenly Yao Sect. Originally, this peak was not called Tianqing Peak, after Tianqing became Elder Tianqing and had the authority over the entire sect, the name was changed.

Hasty footsteps resounded and a guard leader rushed in, “Report…, Great Elder, doves…, doves…”

“What happened? Speak clearly!”

Elder Tianqing who was sitting straight in the hall shouted, showing his prestige.

“Great…, Great Elder, something bad happened.”

The guard leader knelt on the ground and breathed heavily for a while, gasping for breath. Only after a pause, he said, “Some disciples sent an urgent report, all the doves of Dove Peak have disappeared.”

“What? Someone went to Dove Peak to steal doves? Which mental case has done this? Which sect’s disciple has eaten too much and feeling uncomfortable or tired of living?” Elder Tianqing was surprised and impatient. He cursed loudly. Soon after that, his complexion sunk and said, “Let me make sure, are you saying that all the doves of Dove Peak have disappeared?”

“Yes!”

The guard leader replied, and upon seeing Elder Tianqing was furious, he involuntarily began to tremble.

“Not a single dove is left? Over a million doves all disappeared in a night?” Elder Tianqing questioned closely. His sharp eyes were already filled with dense killing intent.

“Yes, all doves have disappeared, but…, but not in a span of one night, rather an instant…, they all disappeared in an instant.”

The guard leader was terrified in his heart. He feared that Elder Tianqing would vent his anger on him. But, under the glare of the latter, he had to toughen his scalp and report. “According to the disciples who had made a secret appointment to meet at the foot of the Dove Peak, roughly two hours after the dusk, the doves suddenly flew out from their caves and circled around in the sky above Dove Peak for an unknown reason. This kind of affair had never happened before, the disciples thought that it was a miracle at that time. In addition, believing the senior experts had manifested for this grand sacrifice ceremony, they lowered their heads to make a wish. After that, when they lifted their head after they made their wish, the doves in the sky had already disappeared without a trace.”

“Trash, what miracle and manifestation, each and everyone is an idiot!”

Elder Tianqing flew into a rage. He realized that this matter was not simple. He cursed furiously, “Tonight is a full moon night, many people must have sneaked into the Dove Peak. In addition, there are so many guards and hidden lookouts in the vicinity, did no one see anything unusual?”

“No, this subordinate has already sent someone to investigate carefully, but all those disciples said that they hadn’t seen any stranger. In addition, no suspicious traces and clues were found in the vicinity.”

The guard leader kneeling on the ground was getting more and more terrified. His teeth were already chattering.

The defense of the Dove Peak was not under his responsibility, but as the leader of the nearby region’s patrol party, he was responsible for a strict investigation. After the event of Small Yao Lake, Elder Tianqing has given the order to guard strictly. Now, something happened in Dove Peak, would Elder Tianqing easily let the matter drop?

“The entire Dove Peak is wiped out, but you all don’t know anything at all, what is the use of you, a guard leader?”

Elder Tianqing suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed the void. Then, the kneeling guard leader was pulled towards him. Now, his five fingers were pressed on the latter’s forehead. As long as, he used a bit of strength, five holes would appear on the head of this guard leader.

“This subordinate is guilty, Great Elder, spare this one’s life, Great Elder, spare this one’s life…”
