The crane was extrely fast and arrived at a majestic palace with the three of them on its back in less than 15 minutes.

The surroundings were a garden with winding stone paths and ancient trees with green bamboo and vines. Everywhere was filled with life and green, the scenery was pleasant.
Song Xuan led the two of them through the garden. There were fake mountains and courtyards everywhere with flowing water. From ti to ti, fish with golden scales would leap up from the lake—it was clear that they were extraordinary.
Before long, the three of them arrived at a courtyard and Song Xuan smiled gently. "Right now, it's the Immortal Peach Banquet and it's considered a rare event in the Jade Firmant Immortal Domain. Once the ti for the Heaven Ranking arrives, it's inevitable that paragons and monster incarnates will battle one another."
"The two of you ca at the right ti. Why don't you rest here for a few days?"
Su Zimo and Lin Luo exchanged glances—both could read the other's mind and could not help but frown.
Song Xuan smiled. "Don't worry, this is the City Lord's residence and there won't be any danger. You can rest easy."
Lin Luo smiled. "Thank you for your kind intentions, Senior Brother Song. However, the two of us have sothing else on and want to make use of the teleportation formation in Langfeng City to leave."
"What's the hurry?"
Song Xuan said, "If the two of you leave today, it'll seem like I was a little negligent and did not receive you well."
Pausing for a mont, he looked at Lin Luo. "Furthermore, I've nurtured a rare variant blood peach blossom tree over the years. The blood peaches that it bears are about to ripen."
"Although it can't compare to the immortal peaches of the Jade Firmant Palace, it's also an extrely rare premium item. I can invite Brother Lin Lei to try it."
"After the Immortal Peach Banquet is over, the two of you siblings can leave together."
Lin Luo's heart skipped a beat as she asked hurriedly, "Is my brother coming too?"
Song Xuan replied, "I've already sent out my invitation letter. I'm sure it'll arrive soon."
Lin Luo lowered her head slightly in hesitation.
In the depths of her heart, she truly wanted to return to the Green Firmant Immortal Domain right away. However, it was difficult for her to decline Song Xuan's kindness now.
"Alright."
Lin Luo hesitated for a long ti before agreeing reluctantly.
Su Zimo remained silent at the side.
He had a feeling that sothing was amiss with the City Lord of Langfeng City, but he could not pinpoint what.
He had no reaction and under Song Xuan's arrangent, he stayed here temporarily with Lin Luo.
Song Xuan settled Su Zimo and Lin Luo down before leaving on his crane. He took out a few ssenger talismans from his storage bag and sent them out.
After pondering for a mont, Song Xuan made a move and arrived at the teleportation formation in the northeast corner of the City Lord's residence. He activated the teleportation formation and disappeared from Langfeng City.
…
The White Jade Capital in the skies, five cities and 12 towers.
The so-called 12 towers were not true towers. Instead, they were more like majestic palaces. That was why so people referred to them as the 12 palaces as well.
This day, the teleportation formation in the Seventh Palace flashed and a figure appeared—it was Song Xuan of Langfeng City.
"Greetings, City Lord."
The guards guarding the place bowed when they saw Song Xuan.
One of them asked, "City Lord, why are you here?"
"I want to et my master!"
Song Xuan said in a deep voice.
A guard replied, "The Palace Lord is in seclusion and we don't dare to disturb him. City Lord, please…"
"I have sothing important!"
With an impatient expression, Song Xuan waved his hand and interrupted him, saying in a deep voice, "Bring into the palace. I'll take responsibility if anything happens!"
The few guards exchanged glances and one of them led Song Xuan into the depths of the Seventh Palace.
A long ti later.
A hoarse voice sounded from the depths of the Seventh Palace. "What happened for you to have to disturb my seclusion?"
"Please forgive , master."
Song Xuan knelt on the ground obediently and said in a deep voice, "The Battle King's daughter, Lin Luo, and another Heaven Immortal are in Langfeng City right now. I've already made the decision to keep them here first."
"Oh?"
The Seventh Palace Lord murmured softly, as though he recalled sothing. "Continue."
Song Xuan said, "The Battle King is severely injured and is already a cripple. Over the years, the Battle Kingdom of the Green Firmant Immortal Domain has been in a precarious situation with internal and external troubles."
"Right now, Immortal Queen Ling Long is the only one handling everything singlehandedly. She has to protect the Battle King daily while presiding over Battle Kingdom to ensure that it doesn't fall."
"You're right."
The Seventh Palace Lord said, "Thousands of years ago, for so unknown reason, Ling Long suddenly left the Battle Kingdom for a period of ti. Although it did not take long, a rebellion broke out in the Battle Kingdom and enemies invaded, almost causing it to fall apart."
"Thankfully, Ling Long rushed back in the end and managed to quell the rebellion and chase away the strong foes."
"Even so, the Battle Kingdom suffered imnse losses after that battle. Lin Zhan and Ling Long's right-hand n died in that battle as well."
Pausing for a mont, he laughed. "Hehe! Ever since that incident, Ling Long has never left the Battle Kingdom's Palace."
Song Xuan smiled as well. "Therefore, as long as Immortal Queen Ling Long leaves the Battle Kingdom's Palace once more, the Battle Kingdom will definitely die!"
"Yes."
The Seventh Palace Lord said, "In the Green Firmant Immortal Domain, the other Immortal Kingdoms have long coveted the Battle Kingdom and wanted to split it up. This is indeed a good opportunity."
"As long as I contact those Immortal Kings, we'll be able to obtain many benefits once this matter is done."
Song Xuan said, "That's right. The Battle King and Immortal Queen Ling Long ca from lowly backgrounds to begin with. Coupled with their nonsensical fight for equality between the lower and The Seventh Palace Lord asked.
Song Xuan said deeply, "I've already left Lin Luo in Langfeng City upper worlds, they should have been killed a long ti ago!"
"Even within the Battle Kingdom, many experts are against them!"
"What are your plans?"
The Seventh Palace Lord asked.
Song Xuan said deeply, "I've already left Lin Luo in Langfeng City and sent people to guard her. She won't have a chance to leave at all!"
"I'll send a ssage to Lin Lei later. He'll definitely rush over once he knows his sister is with ."
"At that ti, we can find any excuse to retain the siblings here. I don't believe that Immortal Queen Ling Long will leave them in the lurch!"
"As long as Immortal Queen Ling Long appears in Langfeng City, the few major factions in the Green Firmant Immortal Domain can launch an attack on the Battle Kingdom. At that ti, they can join forces with the experts of the Battle Kingdom and collude together. The Battle Kingdom will definitely be annihilated."
"However, if Immortal Queen Ling Long were to appear in Langfeng City…"
Song Xuan paused for a mont.
"Don't worry."
The Seventh Palace Lord said indifferently, "If an Immortal King descends upon Langfeng City, I'll be the first to sense it. At that ti, if the few of us Palace Lords join forces, Fairy Ling Long won't be able to escape even with the Nine Palace Subtle Steps."
"Master, you're wise!"
Song Xuan flattered hurriedly.
"This is a good plan."
The Seventh Palace Lord said, "Go back and make the arrangents. I'll inform the few Immortal Kings of the Green Firmant Immortal Domain as well and await the opportunity to attack."
"Rember, nothing must go wrong in this matter!"
"Do it well. If you succeed, it'll be a great rit!"
Song Xuan was excited and filled with confidence as he said firmly, "Don't worry, master. I'll consider every aspect and kill all variables!"
"Right."
Suddenly, the Seventh Palace Lord asked, "You just said that there's soone else beside Lin Luo. He's…"
Song Xuan did not mind at all. "That person is a disciple of Divine Firmant Heaven and Earth Academy. He's just a Grade 5 Heaven Immortal and won't be able to cause much trouble. He's nothing to worry about."
"I see… that's good."
