Chapter 383: Eternal Frozen Cave

"Calm down. Nothing happens to her." Principal Tian said. "The place she has gone to is a bit special. At the innermost of the Extreme Ice Territory, there's a place called Eternal Frozen Cave. It is a habitat of a mysterious figure in the past. Once you entered that place, the entrance would be closed for a year or two before it could open again. So there's a slim chance you could see her."

The frown on Yun Lintian's face grew deeper upon hearing this. "What kind of that mysterious figure? Who is it?"

Principal Tian thought for a moment and said. "It said the first generation of the Frozen Moon Palace Master, which was still a sect master at that time, had been assigned to guard this place by the Misty Cloud Palace's founder. Since the disappearance of the Misty Cloud Palace, she had come out once to create the Frozen Moon Palace. Afterward, no one has ever seen her again."

"The first generation of Frozen Moon Palace Master? Does Palace Master Han know about this?" Yun Lintian asked. 

Principal Tian shook his head. "She doesn't know about it. Everything about the first generation of Frozen Moon Palace Master had been thoroughly erased. If it wasn't because the record left behind my ancestor, I wouldn't have known about it too." He paused for a moment and gave a reassuring smile. "You don't have to worry. I went to that place before, and I can guarantee there's no danger over there. On the contrary, it should be a training paradise for her."

Although Principal Tian said this, Yun Lintian did not feel at ease. He couldn't wait to rush to that place right now, but he understood it was useless to go there at this moment. Therefore, he could only calm down and focus on his current goal first.

Yun Lintian took a deep breath and asked. "Now, what is Senior going to do? Are you going to leave the Peng clan like this?"

"Of course not." Principal Tian answered right away. His face seemed to fill with confidence as he said. "I have my own plan that is inconvenient to tell you right now… I know you have a personal grudge against them. However, you can leave them to me."

Principal Tian suddenly changed the topic. "I believe my ancestor has told you about the Divine Jade, right? Yin Xu has come here for this. Only you and I know where it is, so you better be careful during this period."

"Does Senior know his whereabouts?" Yun Lintian asked. Even with the help of his Cloud Shadow team, he couldn't find any trace about Yin Xu at all.

"He's not here." Principal Tian replied with a frown. "The last time I found his trace is somewhere nearby the Thunder City. I guess he went to check on the Thunder Valley."

Yun Lintian's brows involuntarily creased together upon hearing this. He was certain Yin Xu could get some clues regarding him and Linlin. Looked like he needed to hide Linlin in the Land of Beyond Heaven from now on.

Principal Tian naturally saw through Yun Lintian's worry. He was well aware of Linlin's identity, but he couldn't provide any protection for her.

Yun Lintian needed time to digest all of this information. He raised his head to look at Principal Tian and said. "Thank you for telling me all of this. Since Senior has no other instructions, I would like to excuse myself first."

Principal Tian nodded. "Go ahead." Before Yun Lintian could stand up, Principal Tian added. "Right, about the grudge between you and the Wang clan's descendants. It's best for you to stop for the time being. We cannot afford to involve with the Wang clan right now."

A cold light flashed across Yun Lintian's eyes as he said. "I understood what Senior means. However, I can't guarantee what will happen if they provoke me again."

Principal Tian took a deep look at Yun Lintian and smiled. "It's fine."

Following that, Yun Lintian stood up and walked down the mountain. Along the way toward the Moonlight Peak, Yun Lintian passed by the square and heard Fei Mao's voice coming from the distance.

"Brother Yun!" Fei Mao said while panting and running toward Yun Lintian.

Yun Lintian stopped his track and turned to look at Fei Mao. Seeing Fei Mao's anxious expression, he was puzzled. "Fei Mao? What's wrong?" 

"Hah…Hah… Brother Yun." Fei Mao arrived before Yun Lintian and gasped for a few breaths. "I had gone to the Moonlight Peak and didn't see you there. Teacher Tie wants to see you."

Yun Lintian's eyes lit up. "Oh? Has Teacher Tie finished upgrading my spear?"

Fei Mao wiped sweats out of his forehead and said. "It must be. He didn't say anything about it."

"Let's go!" Yun Lintian didn't say anything further and brought Fei Mao to see Tie Shan right away.

Along the way, Yun Lintian discovered many people cast him strange gazes. They were either whispered something to each other or pointed at him upon seeing him. Yun Lintian thought it was probably because he had broken the record, but it didn't seem to be the case as he further found their gazes were full of contempt. 

Fei Mao saw Yun Lintian's puzzled expression, and he then looked at the people nearby. He immediately understood and whispered. "Brother Yun, I heard you've broken the Forest Maze's record. Is it true?"

"It's true. What's wrong?" Yun Lintian replied with a frown.

"I see." Fei Mao looked at Yun Lintian with admiration. He glanced around for a moment and drew closer to Yun Lintian. "Brother Yun, can you give me that compass? I want to break the record, too."

"Compass? What compass?" Yun Lintian was even more confused now.

Fei Mao was taken aback and discovered that Yun Lintian didn't joke about it. He whispered in doubt. "Brother Yun, didn't you use the energy compass to break the record? I heard everyone saying that."

It was at this moment Yun Lintian understood everything. Someone had clearly discredited him by saying he used a cheat item to break the Forest Maze's record.
