"Since they have decided to reveal Blue Demon, it means they are determined to kill Lintian. This shouldn't be Xing Tengfei's style. After all, he should rather be interested in Lintian's secrets than kill him." Shen Liqiu expressed her doubt.
"It's Xing Chen who laid the grand scheme out. This person is several times scarier than Xing Tengfei when he was young." Long Jinwei explained.
"Xing Chen… I think I heard his name before. He is Xing Renshu's brother, isn't he? I didn't know before that he's this scary." Shen Liqiu frowned deeply.
"It won't be long before they shift their focus to us." Long Hu suddenly said. "With the appearance of Blue Demon, I think we should revise our plan."
Everyone seemed to agree with Long Hu's words.
At this moment, Jiang Yingyue, who sat beside Lin Zixuan, stood up and bowed deeply. "My apologies, Seniors. It's all my fault."
Long Feiyan grabbed Jiang Yingyue's hand and said calmly. "It's not your fault, Big Sister Yingyue. Everyone is willing to help you."
"Yes." Long Guang added. "What you should worry about right now is your family. Now, they have lost an oasis like the Wang Clan."
Hearing this, Jiang Yingyue replied indifferently. "Their life and death have nothing to do with me from the moment they killed my mother. I decided to come back this time because I was afraid they would unite with the Wang Clan and trouble the Northern Continent… Who would have thought I caused a huge problem to Junior Brother Yun and everyone instead?"
"Are you sure?" Long Guang took a deep look at her.
Jiang Yingyue said nothing, but the look in her eyes expressed everything. She genuinely didn't care about the Jiang Clan anymore.
Long Guang nodded slowly and didn't linger on this topic further.
"They are likely to go to the Northern Continent later. However, there shouldn't be a problem with Big Brother Shen over there." Long Hu said. He turned to Long Jinwei and asked. "How's the Poison Valley movement recently?"
"After they took over the Western Continent, they surprisingly went inactive. We couldn't find any clues about them." Long Jinwei replied with a frown. His intuition told him the Poison Valley was about to make a big move soon. But what was it?
Long Hu went silent for a moment and said. "All we can do right now is take a passive stance as planned and wait for Young Master Yun's return."
Long Ying and the others nodded their heads in agreement. It would be unrealistic for them to take the initiative to attack the Star Gazing Palace and the Azure Palace. Unless they were courting death.
"Hmm?" Suddenly, Long Jinwei and the other Dragon Council's elders frowned slightly and looked toward the hall entrance.
At this moment, a beautiful figure gradually walked into the hall. The surrounding formations didn't seem to pose any threat to her.
"Qing Xiaoting?" Long Ying was surprised to see her here.
"I know all of you are still alive." The woman, Qing Xiaoting, said while looking at everyone.
She paused for a moment and said. "I come here to tell everyone something… It's about the Heavenly Cloud Mountain Range."
As she finished her sentence, a white-haired old man clad in a green robe appeared behind her. This person held a wine gourd, looking like he was drunk all the time.
When Long Ying and the other elders saw the old man's face clearly, their expressions changed drastically. A surprise was written all over their faces. It was as if they couldn't believe their eyes.
"Yo! Long time no see, everyone… Eh? Why are all of you so young? What kind of elixir did you take? Why don't you share it with this old man?" The old man raised his hand, greeting everyone casually.
Apparently, he seemed to be an acquaintance of Long Ying and the other elders.

"Why did that lunatic bastard Xing Chen try to kill him? This is clearly breaking our agreements." In a spacious room, Du Huanfeng frowned deeply.
Sitting opposite him were Du Renjie, Lei Huizong, and Lei Jun. All of them gathered here to discuss Yun Lintian's matter.
They also knew that Yun Lintian could still be alive after falling into the Heavenly Cloud Mountain Range.
"This little guy Xing Chen is decisive enough. He knows that someone like Yun Lintian shouldn't be kept alive." Lei Huizhong said while stroking his beard.
Du Huanfeng frowned, but he didn't dare to express his dissatisfaction here.
"It's fine. No one knows whether Yun Lintian is alive or dead. We still have a chance." Du Renjie interjected. "What we should focus on right now is the Heavenly Cloud Mountain Range. From my investigations, its barrier is going to break soon. At that time, whoever is faster will certainly gain a lot of benefits."
He turned to Lei Huizhong and asked. "How about we go together, Brother Lei? We will share half each."
Lei Huizhong thought for a moment and said. "I have to ask Palace Master first."
"Sure." Du Renjie said with a smile. "After all, your Palace Master has just taken over the position recently. It's understandable that he doesn't want to take a risk."
Lei Huizhong laughed and said. "I believe he would agree in the end. Anyway, no one can refuse the money. Don't you think so?"
Du Renjie burst into laughter.

Two weeks passed by in a blink of an eye. Yun Lintian's wounds were getting much better than before during this period. At least he could walk around without causing a fracture to them.
It all thanked Yun Xia and Uncle Hei, who were gathering precious herbs for him.
"Are you going to Uncle Sun's house, Big Brother Yun?" Yun Niu asked when she saw Yun Lintian carry a small book while walking toward the hut's entrance.
"Yes. I will help him teach new students today." Yun Lintian replied with a smile.
During this period, Yun Lintian had familiarized himself with the villagers, and Uncle Sun, in Yun Niu's words, was the one and only doctor here.
When Yun Lintian knew this, he thought it would be great to help Uncle Sun cultivate more doctors. Hence, going to Uncle Sun's house had become his routine.
"That's great! I want to learn it, too." Yun Niu's eyes lit up. She quickly went to her room to fetch her small book and followed Yun Lintian.
