Yun Lintian frowned deeply. He didn't inquire about the situation at the Sky Throne Profound Academy for a long time.
"Also, that stingy fourth has returned to her home shortly after you left. I don't know where she is now." Nantian Fengyu was referred to Wu Qingcheng, and there was a trace of resentment in her eyes.
"Fourth Sister returned home?" Yun Lintian suddenly had a hunch that Wu Qingcheng might know his movement clearly from the beginning to the present.
He thought for a moment and asked. "By the way, Fifth Sister. Why did you come back? I thought you would stay there for a few more years."
Speaking of this, a trace of dissatisfaction appeared on Nantian Fengyu's face. "Hmph! What else? I was forced to come back." Her expression changed slightly as she revealed a sly grin. "But don't worry, your Fifth Sister will sneak out again soon."
Yun Lintian was speechless. He asked further. "Then why are you coming here?"
Nantian Fengyu appeared as though she was thinking hard. She shook her head and said. "I don't know. I heard something about Heaven Vault Island, and I thought it is a good chance to come out."

"Heaven Vault Island? Are you talking about the mysterious disappearance of a group of people?" Yun Lintian was surprised. He didn't expect the Divine Phoenix Palace to pay attention to this incident. Looked like this matter was bigger than he thought.
"Yes, yes." Nantian Fengyu nodded quickly. She looked at Yun Lintian suspiciously. "Don't tell me that you're going to participate in this, my good Junior Brother?"
"Yes." Yun Lintian nodded.
"No, I don't allow you!" Nantian Fengyu suddenly raised her voice. Her face was full of concerns as she spoke. "It is too dangerous. I don't allow you to go."
Yun Lintian's heart was warmed. He could see that Nantian Fengyu was genuinely worried about his safety.
"I'll be fine, Fifth Sister." Yun Lintian said with a smile. "Besides, don't you have to investigate this matter? Your strength has already surpassed the restriction. It is better to have someone you can trust to deal with this."
"But it's too dangerous." Nantian Fengyu's brows knitted together.
"Have you forgotten about my ability, Fifth Sister? In terms of fleeing, no one would dare to claim to be the first if I say I am the second." Yun Lintian chuckled.
Nantian Fengyu naturally remembered Yun Lintian's magical movement technique. However, she was still worried about him. It was impossible to get rid of it.
"I'll tell them to protect you." She said. Of course, the "them" in her words referred to the Divine Phoenix Palace's disciples who were going to participate in this trip.
"That's fine as well." Yun Lintian didn't reject her kindness.
Knock! Knock!
"I'm sorry to disturb your meal, Young Master Yun and Young Miss Nantian." All of a sudden, a knocking sound was heard, accompanied by Tong Liya's voice.
Yun Lintian frowned in dissatisfaction and went to open the door. Immediately, he saw four people standing there, looking at him curiously. Two among them were naturally Tong Liya and Wen Zishan he met not long ago. As for Situ Yuanzhi and Xue Lou'er, he could guess more or less from their clothes.
As Yun Lintian observed them, he was also being observed. Xue Lou'er felt that Yun Lintian wasn't hateful as she thought. Although his temperament was ordinary, she could feel a sense of danger coming from him. Without a doubt, she wasn't his opponent at all.
Meanwhile, Situ Yuanzhi didn't think about it much. Yun Lintian might be strong, but he didn't believe Yun Lintian would be more powerful than him. Nevertheless, he could not do anything to him because of Nantian Fengyu.
"Why are you here, Saintess?" Yun Lintian asked with a plain expression, but a trace of dissatisfaction in his voice was evident.
"Please call me by my name directly," Tong Liya said softly. "I apologize for an unpleasant meeting between us. Please accept this gift."
As she spoke, she handed an exquisite brocade box to Yun Lintian.
Yun Lintian glanced at it but did not accept. He said. "It's fine. I don't think about it much. Please go back if you have nothing else."
,m Seeing Yun Lintian didn't accept her gift, Tong Liya wasn't angry. She said further. "Aside from apologizing to you, we're here to greet Young Miss Nantian. I wonder if Young Master Yun could give us a chance to see her?"
Without waiting for Yun Lintian to reply, Nantian Fengyu's cold voice resounded from behind. "I have accepted your greetings. All of you can leave."
Yun Lintian looked at the four and shrugged his shoulders slightly. "You've heard it."
Wen Zishan quickly handed a wooden box to Yun Lintian and said. "Please give this to her, Brother Yun."
Yun Lintian had a good impression of Wen Zishan. He calmly accepted the box. "Alright."
Wen Zishan cupped his fists and said. "I'll invite you to drink later."
"Sure." Yun Lintian replied and watched Wen Zishan leave.
Tong Liya hesitated briefly, and she heard Yun Lintian say. "All of you can give them to me."
Tong Liya nodded and said softly. "Then I'll have to trouble Young Master Yun." She quickly handed the gift to Yun Lintian and bid farewell.
Xue Lou'er stepped forward and handed a luxury jewel box to Yun Lintian. "My name is Xue Lou'er from the Driftsnow Pavilion."
Yun Lintian replied calmly while accepting the gift. "Yun Lintian."
Xue Lou'er smiled gently and walked away.
Situ Yuanzhi handed a wooden box to Yun Lintian and said with a smile. "Great Earth Sect's Situ Yuanzhi. I'll ask Brother Yun for guidance later."
His voice was full of confidence as he turned around and left without waiting for Yun Lintian to reply.
Yun Lintian watched Situ Yuanzhi leave with a thoughtful expression. Among the four, this person must be wary of as he could feel a sense of malice from him.
Yun Lintian didn't think about it further and returned to his seat with four gift boxes.
"Fifth Sister, how's the relationship between your palace and these four sects?" He asked curiously.
"Not bad and not good." Nantian Fengyu, who seemed to change into a different person, replied nonchalantly. "Their ambitions are not low."
