As they left Qing Ao's palace, Angela had a very unhappy look on her face to Lin Fan's dismay.
He knew exactly why she was acting this way, it was because she didn't want Qing Bao Lan coming with them.
She had never liked Qing Bao Lan because of the way she showed her affection for Xiao Feng, so naturally she didn't like that Qing Bao Lan would get much more ti with Xiao Feng now.
Even when she was put into the pet storage space, she kept bothering Lin Fan until he put her in the sa room as Xiao Feng.
He couldn't take it anymore, so he had put all the kids into one room instead.
At least that way, Xiao Feng wouldn't have to deal with Qing Bao Lan alone and the other kids could help take so of her attention.
But of course, this was also the last thing that was on Lin Fan's mind right now. He was actually more focused on the "lord" that the kidnappers had ntioned.
It was clear that this "lord" that they ntioned was the sa "lord" that he t in the Ancient Era Ruins. As far as he knew, that "lord" was soone that wanted to take care of every other faction that stood in his way.
Now that his n were making a move against the True Soul Realm beasts of the Galactic Humanity Alliance, it was clear that he would be implenting his plan soon.
Since that was the case, Lin Fan should also tell his allies what they were up to.
He was certain that this was also related to the Thunder Sect and True Spirit Sect's movents lately.
But it still confused him as to what the goal of this "lord" was.
If he just wanted to get rid of the other factions or make them fall under him, there was no need for him to antagonize the True Soul Realm beasts. There was nothing to gain from doing sothing like this.
The only reason that he would need to do this would be if he wanted to completely rewrite the structure of the Galactic Humanity Alliance. To wipe out everything and rebuild from scratch.
But the amount of resources that would be needed and not to ntion, the amount of people that would need to be eliminated…
It was not sothing that a sane person would do.
So just what was their plan here?
Lin Fan fell into deeper and deeper thought, but they had already arrived back in Harmony City, so he had to pull himself out of his thoughts.
After arriving, the first thing that Lin Fan did was call old man Qiao.
It wasn't just to report to him what he had found, but also to set up another use of the Hunters Organization's teleport gates.
The two locations that Qing Ao had told him about were far away from Harmony City, so Lin Fan would need to use the Hunters Organization's teleport gates to get to them.
After old man Qiao heard about what happened, he couldn't help asking, "How did you find out about all of this? The True Soul Realm dragon in the Kunlun Mountains is sothing that barely anyone knows about and it has always kept to itself."
Lin Fan had already thought of an excuse, so he said, "I was out hunting for so things for my store, but I encountered the kidnappers who had captured the True Soul Realm dragon's daughter. After returning it, he told about what had happened before disappearing. It's clear that he was trying to get to send a warning."
Old man Qiao thought about it before giving a nod in secret.
This did make sense since it was very unlikely that Lin Fan had anything to do with the True Soul Realm dragon.
That True Soul Realm dragon was sothing that even he had to be wary of. It was sothing that had caused the twelve great factions a headache a long ti ago, but it was also famous for keeping to itself.
After thinking this, old man Qiao went back to the main topic and asked, "What do you think their goal is? It's clear that this isn't the smart thing to do, especially since it just ans that they would be antagonizing a bunch of True Soul Realm beasts for no reason."
Lin Fan shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but we should start getting everyone to monitor the Thunder Sect, the True Spirit Sect, and the Assassin Association."
Old man Qiao was silent for a bit before saying, "We're already doing that, but we'll increase the surveillance after this."
He seed like he was about to say sothing else, but then there was a knock on the door before he said, "I'll contact you again when I have more information."
Lin Fan knew that he was busy, so he didn't keep him.
But after he hung up, he just stood there lost in thought for a long ti.
…
The next morning, Lin Fan set out with the sa group as before.
Well, it wasn't the exact sa group since Qing Bao Lan was also coming with them.
Instead of leaving her in the store where she would cause a fuss and would be easily discovered, Lin Fan chose to bring her with them.
It definitely wasn't because she threw a tantrum about not wanting to leave Xiao Feng…
They went to the Hunters Organization where they were quickly shown to the teleport gates just like last ti and then they were sent to another city.
This ti, Lin Fan's group wasn't greeted by anyone when they arrived since they had no plans of staying in the city.
Their target was the Sun Peak Mountain outside of the city, so they wouldn't be wasting any ti in this city.
After they arrived, their group imdiately left the city and started heading to Sun Peak Mountain.
While it was called a mountain, it was better to describe this place as a volcano instead. There was a large pool of lava that was right at the peak of the mountain that glowed with the burning fury of a sun, which was how this volcano received its na.
According to Qing Ao, that friend of his lived right in the center of the volcano, where that lake of lava was. So Lin Fan's group had no choice but to hike all the way up the mountain and go into the crater at the peak, looking around the lake of lava for Qing Ao's ally.
One thing that had to be acknowledged was that this place really was hot.
If it wasn't for Lin Fan using different laws to form a barrier around them, they would have already burnt to a crisp already.
Well, it wouldn't have worked on Angela and Yuki since their physiques were different, but everyone else would have definitely burnt to a crisp.
However, Lin Fan's laws weren't able to completely negate all of the heat that was assaulting them, so they were still sweating like crazy.
Xiao Feng, who had Qing Bao Lan attached to him the entire ti, was sweating even more than everyone else.
But he had to endure it since this was the only way for Qing Bao Lan to stay out and they needed Qing Bao Lan to stay out.
Unless Qing Bao Lan was here, it was impossible for Qing Ao's ally to recognize them as friends. If Qing Bao Lan wasn't here, it was very likely that Qing Ao's ally would have even attacked them for trespassing in their territory.
In fact, when Lin Fan had passed by people along the way, they had all warned him about going to the peak of Sun Peak Mountain. Everyone who ca here knew that the peak of this mountain was a forbidden area because there was a powerful beast that lived there and no one dared to approach it.
After they ca into the crater, they found that other than a lake of bubbling lava, there really wasn't anything else here.
Their group just stood there as they started wondering how they were going to find Qing Ao's ally.
But that problem solved itself in the end.
After standing there for a bit, the heat around them suddenly started to rise as the lava bubbled even more.
Then ever so slowly, there were flas that appeared on the surface of the lava. These flas burned the top of the lava until they started gathering in the air.
The flas ca together above the lava until they took the form of a bird that floated there above the crater.
Once the bird had been ford, it suddenly said, "Who dares trespass in my territory!"
When it spoke, there was a strong pressure that fell onto Lin Fan's group.
Lin Fan could tell that this pressure wasn't inferior to Qing Ao's, so it was clear that this was a True Spirit Realm bird. There was no doubt that this was the ally that Qing Ao wanted Lin Fan to find.
But before Lin Fan could say anything, the bird suddenly turned its attention to Qing Bao Lan who was standing on the side.
It revealed a surprised look as it asked, "Lan Lan, what are you doing here?" Then without giving anyone a chance to say a thing, it revealed an angry look and roared out, "You! You dare kidnap Brother Ao's little Lan Lan and bring her here!"
Then it said, "Don't worry Lan Lan, I'll save you now!"
After saying this, it started rearing back its head, gathering its flas as if it was about to release a fla breath.
