Chapter 423: Yun Shan’s Choice!

“It seems they truly have ulterior motives. Collecting sixth-tier spiritual herbs is far from satisfying their appetite. If we continue cooperating with them, their demands will likely grow increasingly excessive!”

At this moment, Yun Shan felt immensely fortunate to have Gu He as his son-in-law. Without him, Yun Shan would have had no means to handle the mysterious figure before him.

“I am the Protector Feng. As for the Protector Jiu you mentioned, I’ve heard about him from other protectors during a mission, but I didn’t expect he’d come to your Yunlan Sect just for a batch of sixth-tier spiritual herbs. That fool—he’s not even an alchemist. What could he possibly need those herbs for?” The figure shrouded in black mist explained coldly.

Hearing this, Yun Shan’s wariness of the force behind Protector Jiu deepened further.

Based on the statement that Protector Feng was of the same rank as Protector Jiu, Yun Shan deduced that the power behind the two likely consisted of more than just these two Dou Ancestor-level experts.

“This matter is already beyond my capability to handle. I can only rely on Gu He to step in and resolve it for me.”

After some contemplation, Yun Shan decided that Gu He was the best person to handle the situation.

Meanwhile, not far from Yun Shan’s secluded retreat, Nalan Yanran, Qing Lin, Flame Dragon, and Cai’er were hiding behind a large boulder, eavesdropping on the conversation between Yun Shan and Protector Feng.

Thanks to Cai’er’s soul energy masking their presence, neither Yun Shan nor Protector Feng was aware of their presence.

The dark and sinister aura emanating from Protector Feng left a terrible first impression on Nalan Yanran and the others. They were puzzled as to why such a figure would seek out Yun Shan.

“Why would this person come looking for Grandmaster?” Nalan Yanran asked with a frown.

“Judging by Grandmaster’s reaction, it seems like this is his first time meeting the person. He seemed to know someone named Protector Jiu before,” Qing Lin added.

“It seems there are quite a few individuals like Protector Feng with such sinister auras and Dou Ancestor-level strength,” Nalan Yanran remarked gravely, listening intently to the conversation.

Although the exact relationship between Yun Shan and Protector Feng wasn’t clear from the brief exchange, Nalan Yanran and the others suspected that Protector Feng was backed by a powerful organization.

“Let’s keep watching and see what Protector Feng is really after.”

...

Yun Shan, having just unleashed his strongest attack, immediately began retreating, skirting around Protector Feng to head toward Gu He’s courtyard.

Yet, he could distinctly sense that the energy on the black chains sweeping toward him now was nearly twice as powerful as the previous attack. Blocking this strike would likely cost him dearly.

Just then, a cold shout echoed from the distance.

"Audacious scoundrel! How dare you attack my grandmaster on Yunlan Mountain!"

Two slender figures appeared within Yun Shan and Protector Feng’s sightlines.

Upon seeing that the newcomers were merely two young girls, the surprise in Protector Feng’s eyes quickly turned into disdain.

However, Yun Shan, not far away, was filled with worry. He acknowledged that both Nalan Yanran and Qing Lin had excellent potential, but they had yet to fully mature. For them to appear before Protector Feng at this moment was far too dangerous.

"Yanran, take your junior sister and leave this place at once!" Yun Shan shouted. Immediately, energy surged in his palm as he prepared to intercept the fierce black chains heading their way.
