Chapter 816 Storm Brewing

Somewhere in the deep sea, a middle-aged man clad in black was sitting on a flat stone with his eyes closed. A moment later, he opened his eyes that resembled ferocious beast's and glanced toward Heaven Vault Island's direction.

"Yun Lintian? I thought that he was nothing but a mere stronger ant. I can see now why he's on the top killing list." The middle-aged man said calmly. His voice was flat, without any emotion.

After a short pause, he said. "Come in."

Suddenly, a space several meters away from him fluctuated violently, and a tall figure in black slowly appeared.

"See the Lord." He knelt on one knee and greeted the middle-aged man respectfully.

The middle-aged man, Southern Endless Sea Lord, glanced at him and said. "Contact the northern camp and ask them when they are going to start. With this Yun Lintian here, I don't think we can hold the Divine Phoenix Palace back unless we go out ourselves."

"Yes, My Lord." The tall man responded solemnly and was about to leave.

Southern Endless Sea Lord suddenly added. "Also, tell our people to pay attention to Yun Lintian. I want to know his next movement."

"Understood." The tall man replied and disappeared from the spot.

Southern Endless Sea Lord was silent for a moment, and a grin slowly appeared on his lips as he muttered. "Maybe it's time to use that… Hehe."

"Master, Young Miss has arrived at the Central Continent safely. She's resting in a small village called Rain Village." In Moonlight Peak, Han Bingling lay on a chair comfortably and listened to Han Muyue's report.

A trace of surprise appeared on Han Bingling's face upon hearing this. "Rain Village? Where is that? And why did she go there?"

Two days ago, she sent Lin Xinyao to the Central Continent by the Frozen Moon Profound Skyship to participate in the upcoming Heavenly Sword Summit. She thought Lin Xinyao would choose to go to Heavenly Sword City directly.

"I don't know, Master. She chose it by herself." Han Muyue replied.

Han Bingling's brows creased together with a look of incomprehensible on her face. After Lin Xinyao returned from the Frozen Moon Mythical Realm last time, Han Bingling felt that she didn't seem to know Lin Xinyao anymore. It was as though she had become another person that inherited the former Lin Xinyao's memory.

"You don't have to worry about her. In fact, her change is not bad at all." Sitting on the side, Lin Zixuan said with a smile. "Don't you feel she is similar to someone we know?"

Han Bingling turned to look at Lin Zixuan in confusion. "Someone we know?… You mean… Yun Lintian?"

Lin Zixuan nodded gently. "I don't know if it's an illusion, but I feel their auras are very similar."

Han Bingling fell into deep thought for a long while before saying. "You're right, Sister Zixuan. They are indeed giving off a similar vibe."

Han Bingling communicated with Han Muyue in her mind. "Protect her well. The situation there is not optimistic recently. Especially the Myriad Pill Palace's recent movement. You have to pay attention to them."

"Understood, Master." Han Muyue replied.

Han Bingling sighed softly and said. "There were so many things that happened in these two years. They didn't give me a breather at all."

Lin Zixuan raised her head to look at the bright moon in the sky and said. "The world is constantly changing every day. We have to deal with it even if we don't want to."

"I know, but…" As Han Bingling spoke halfway, her expression abruptly changed when she heard a report from one of her subordinates.

"Palace Master, a horde of profound beasts appearing in the eastern coastal cities. They are infected with Abyssal Poison." A female voice resounded in Han Bingling's mind.

A cold light flashed through Han Bingling's eyes as she said. "Look like they can't wait anymore."

She replied to her subordinate. "Send the second troop to deal with it. Remember to pay attention to a high-level beast."

After saying that, Han Bingling slowly got up from the chair and said. "I'll leave first, Sister Zixuan."

Lin Zixuan turned to look at Han Bingling and said calmly. "Do not worry about this side."

Han Bingling nodded gently, and her figure disappeared from the spot, leaving a trail of ice particles behind.

Watching Han Bingling leaving, Lin Zixuan was silent for a moment before calling her two disciples over.

A moment later, Murong Xue and Long Feiyan appeared beside Lin Zixuan and waited for the latter's instruction.

Lin Zixuan looked at her proud disciples for a long time before saying. "I don't have anything to teach you anymore. It's time for both of you to go out exploring the world."

"Master…" Long Feiyan couldn't help but become emotional upon hearing this. She knew that this could be the last time they met.

On the side, Murong Xue revealed a relaxed smile as she looked at Long Feiyan. "What are you sad about? It's not like we can't come back later." She turned to Lin Zixuan and continued. "Besides, we stay here will eventually make our Master worry. It's better for us to go back. We can help our Master in that way. Am I right, Master?"

A rare smile appeared on Lin Zixuan's face as she said. "Among my six disciples, you always have an acute awareness of every situation. It seems you've already figured out what to do."

Murong Xue covered her mouth and laughed elegantly. "Thank you for the compliment, Master. However, I don't think I can compare to my Junior Brother in this aspect."

"Your Junior Brother?" Lin Zixuan chuckled. "That little one always causes trouble wherever he goes. If it wasn't because he runs fast enough, I'm afraid he would leave a name behind long ago."

Murong Xue and Long Feiyan glanced at each other and smiled. Not long ago, they received the news about Yun Lintian from Nantian Fengyu. The stone in their hearts immediately fell upon knowing he was safe and sound.

Furthermore, from Nantian Fengyu's words, his strength had improved by leaps and bounds. Monarchs might not necessarily become a threat to him now.

Murong Xue suddenly asked with concern. "Master, what about the Peng clan now?"

A strange light flashed through Lin Zixuan's eyes as she replied. "They certainly cannot sit still…."
