Capítulo 949: Chapter 948: The Truth Behind the Opening of the Cloud Realm
After drinking a pot of wine with Ah Jiu, a light rain suddenly started falling from the sky. The two then jumped down from the rooftop. Yuan Ye and the others saw Wufu’s wine bottle and then looked at the rooftop, as if drinking on the rooftop was more enjoyable.
“Let Jadeite prepare a medicinal bath for you to soak and dispel the cold.” Ah Jiu said, frowning at her slightly damp hair.
Wufu nodded and looked at Yuan Ye, saying, “When Chi Yi and the others return, let him come find me directly. Also, are we going to Cloud Fort tomorrow?”
Yuan Ye looked at Ah Jiu.
Ah Jiu said, “If you don’t want to go, we won’t go.”
“No, I want to go. How could I not go to such an event?” Wufu snorted. She needed an outlet, and this was a perfect opportunity.
“Miss, do you need to prepare anything?” Yuan Ye asked.
“I do need to prepare some things. I’ll make a list later. By the way, have Bai Xiaobai prepare some antidotes and anti-poison herbs. Never mind, I’ll tell Jadeite later.” Wufu said, then looked at Ah Jiu, “Tang Shi and the others haven’t come back yet?”
“Just about to report to you, sir and miss. Tang Shi sent word that he’s expecting you and the miss to go there, so he didn’t rush back and will wait for us directly at Cloud Fort.” Yuan Ye took out an intelligence report.
Wufu wanted to take it and have a look, but Ah Jiu blocked her hand, “Go wash up and change first.”
Wufu, a little embarrassed, had to turn around and go back to the house, calling Jadeite to serve her.
An hour later, lights were already lit in the residence. Wufu went to Ah Jiu’s courtyard, had dinner first, and then they sat down with tea to discuss the matter of Cloud Fort.
Wufu picked up the news sent by Tang Shi and the others, read it for a while, and then put it aside.
“What do you think the chances are?” She looked at Ah Jiu and the others.
“Very high,” Ah Jiu said. “If Yun Feiyang hadn’t injured the Cloud Fortress Master and taken something to escape, Cloud Fort wouldn’t have opened the Cloud Realm in such a grand manner and offered great benefits.”
The intelligence said that Yun Feiyang had received offers from the Fan Family and the Tenth Prince of the imperial court, and after failing to persuade his master to surrender, developed malicious intent. He made a move when the Cloud Fortress Master was in seclusion, almost causing him to go mad, and took away the Cloud Pearl, the greatest treasure of Cloud Fort for generations.
It is said that this Cloud Pearl holds the true treasure map of Cloud Fort, and the treasure is said to be as rich as a nation. This is a great temptation for any prince or anyone else.
Yun Feiyang took this Cloud Pearl, and whether it contains the treasure map or not is still unknown, but it must be an important item of Cloud Fort, more important than the Cloud Tower. Therefore, Cloud Fort widely issued hero posts, offering the position of the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch as an incentive, only to find Yun Feiyang, but alive.
“Cloud Fort should be more familiar with their Cloud Realm. After all this time, they still can’t find him?” Wufu asked.
“Cloud Fort naturally sent quite a few people in, but the Cloud Realm only opens once a year, and it is a training ground for generations. If one’s martial arts don’t reach a certain level, going in is a dead end.” Yuan Ye said.
Hoo Die, holding her sword, said, “I heard an elder also got trapped inside.”
Everyone’s face turned serious. Is this Cloud Realm really that formidable?
“Since the Cloud Realm is so terrifying, why does Cloud Fort still send people in?” Wufu wondered and asked, “And such a place is so dreadful, shouldn’t it be destroyed?”
“That’s Cloud Fort’s own business, perhaps they believe that without carving, jade does not become a vessel!” Ah Jiu gave a faint smile.
“Alright!” Wufu asked the last question, “How can we be sure that Yun Feiyang is still alive inside? Even someone at the elder level got trapped, yet he survived?”
