Hearing these words, Gu Lianni's gaze slightly hardened, and her action of retrieving the iron tower froze. Her mouth twitched subconsciously, a chill ran through her heart, knowing the implication of the other's words. If such a secret technique had fallen into the hands of Shudao Mountain, once the news spread, unless Shudao Mountain decided to share it with others, it would surely beco the target of everyone's arrows.
She really couldn't make a decision on this matter, but she noted it, planning to inform her sect once she left the Divine Fire Domain.
Of course, she also wondered, aren't you, Shi Chun, afraid of becoming the target of everyone's arrows?
She didn't ask further. Just as Shi Chun had said, when it was not the ti to know, don't ask. She continued to pack up the Elent Locking Array's magic artifact.
After everything was collected, the two quickly returned to the surface. Shi Chun suggested to Gu Lianni to stay there temporarily. After giving her so instructions, he left first.
Returning to the location where negotiations had turned into a heated argunt, Shi Chun struck up a conversation to ask about the situation and then turned his head to Xu Anzhang and said, "Brother Xu, our grudge with Shudao Mountain has been resolved. Take your people and go back to the old place. Continue with what you need to do. Don't get involved in the rest."
Xu Anzhang's eyes sought confirmation as if asking, are you sure?
Shi Chun responded with a look, leaving it up to the other to interpret.
Once he received a clear indication, Xu Anzhang couldn't wait. Why bother with Divine Fire and ss about? Better to start one step at a ti, without all these troubles.
He imdiately took his people from the Four Cauldron Sect and left, glancing back several tis through the air.
Before Yuan Yao could speak, Shi Chun imdiately said, "Brother Pang, head in the direction I ca from, about ten miles or so. Gu Lianni is waiting for you there. She has sothing to tell you. When you get there, she'll see you and call for you. Brother Yuan, let's pretend to continue our discussion."
Once he had Yuan Yao's agreent, Pang Hou hurriedly left.
Yuan Yao turned back to Shi Chun and asked, "What exactly are you up to?"
Shi Chun looked at Gong Shixi, who was waiting impatiently nearby, then turned back to Yuan Yao and said with a smile, "Gu Lianni will be here soon. You ask her yourself. Let's talk about sothing else. May I ask how old Brother Yuan is?"
As he had said, it didn't take long for Gu Lianni to finally appear.
Seeing her, Yuan Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief, but noticing Pang Hou hadn't returned with her, he imdiately expressed his concern. "Master Uncle, are you alright?"
Gu Lianni gestured with her hand to indicate there was no problem, then turned and asked Shi Chun, "What should we do now?"
Shi Chun smiled and said, "Naturally, we leave and continue with our trade. Let's not delay others from searching for the Divine Fire."
Gu Lianni grinned and nodded, "Alright."
Shi Chun imdiately flashed to the outside of Shudao Mountain's encirclent and called out loudly, "Brother Gong, in just a few words, you've made try every ans and spend all this effort."
Gong Shixi snorted, "You brought this upon yourself!" pointing at the encirclent, "How long do you plan to keep this up?"
Shi Chun said, "We've already reached an agreent, and we'll withdraw soon. You're off the hook, but my cost has been great. Sorry for the disturbance. From now on, we'll keep to our own paths. We're taking our leave first!"
With a grim face, Gong Shixi gave a formal gesture of farewell, "No need to see you off!"
Shi Chun imdiately took out the Wind Scale and rose into the air, calling out, "Let's go!"
The Mingshan Sect group swiftly followed and ascended into the sky.
"Let's go!" Gu Lianni also gave the command sharply.
The people from Shudao Mountain also followed and soared into the sky.
The suddenly relieved group from Qianyan Sect finally exhaled in relief.
Gong Shixi, in front of his own people, boosted morale by saying, "Trivial tricks, daring to show off in front of !" Then he turned to everyone and instructed, "Continue searching, don't go alone. At least two people should be in a group to prevent those who left from playing tricks."
