姬荡 replied earnestly, "The reason I woke up was because of him."
"So, naturally, I must co in person."
Ao Fei asked, "Although the upper echelons of the Dragon Palace and Da Yan believe the current Master of Mortal World who entered the Death Realm is fake, why are you so certain?"
"He has already annihilated the power of my dragon race!"
"What you should do is quickly break through to the Ghost Mask Realm to eliminate this threat!"
Ji Dang shook his head, "Although Yao Feng is not weak, after reading the battle report, I feel he still falls sowhat short compared to the true Master of Mortal World."
"The true Master of Mortal World could reign over an entire realm for sixty years and would never act so hastily."
"And judging by the battle report, he only possesses the power of an ordinary Divine Son or Goddess."
"Far from reaching the level of dominating an entire era alone."
"Three hundred years ago, in that great battle, he subdued everyone and every Great Sect!"
"I speculate that Yao Feng is only the Protector of the real Master of Mortal World."
Ao Fei recalled the tragedy from three hundred years ago, while he agreed there was so truth to Ji Dang's words.
Yet, he still felt a slight unease in his heart.
Nearly the entire power of the dragon race in the Death Realm was wiped out, and this wasn't strong enough?
Suppressing his anger, he asked, "Where are you planning to go?"
Ji Dang looked to the west, "The West Desert!"
Ao Fei asked, "But what is your specific target? Do you know who he is?"
Ji Dang shook his head.
Ao Fei pursued, "If you don't even know who, how are you going to act?"
Ji Dang replied confidently, "Eliminate all potential targets, and that will complete the mission."
At that mont, Ao Fei finally understood what it ant to be an unrivaled Heavenly Pride who could lead trends.
Such courage, truly worthy of being Da Yan's true dragon.
The wind dispersed the surrounding fog, and Ao Fei suddenly felt that this journey toward the West Desert would be filled with blood and chaos.

At midnight, Chen Qing put a Spiritual dicine given by the Taihao Tribe into his mouth, walked into his room, and donned the bronze ghost mask, preparing to attend today's gathering.
After the customary greetings, Chen Qing advised Hu Yao, Murong Lang, and Xu Yaofeng on the needs of their Gu.
He received five Spiritual Pearls.
It was his least profitable session recently, but he was not too concerned about that now.
After all, what he needed more was for these people to grow stronger.
Ji Ru, unusually, did not seek any guidance. Out of the corner of his eye, Chen Qing noticed Ji Ru appeared quite anxious.
So small actions betrayed her.
Her index finger continuously pressed on her thumb on the table.
It seed that she still hadn't gathered all the Harmonization materials for the Three-year Cicada.
Upon reflection, it made sense, if gathering materials for the Three-year Cicada were so easy, Da Yan wouldn't have so many early-demising Emperors Donghua.
Chen Qing crossed his hands, "Now, you may start chatting."
Xu Yaofeng glanced around, seeing Hu Yao and Murong Lang had nothing to say, he spoke up, "It seems the outside world already knows I have entered the Death Realm, and the reactions are quite strong."
"Especially the Dragon Palace, which has already awakened an ancient dragon to enter the Death Realm and temporarily stall Shang Tong."
"I must say, the Sealed One possesses extraordinary strength indeed."
"Even after I destroyed the Dragon Palace's main forces in a previous battle, he still managed to hold the situation."
Xu Yaofeng looked at Ji Ru, asking, "What is the situation on Da Yan's side?"
Ji Ru spoke rapidly, but luckily everyone was at the Foundation Establishnt stage now and could understand clearly.
"Ji Dang has secluded himself, claiming he will cultivate to the Ghost Mask Realm within three years."
"Now, all the major families in Da Yan are stepping up to support Ji Dang in leaving an immortal legacy in the Death Realm."
"You still have so ti to prepare."
Xu Yaofeng felt much more at ease upon hearing the number three years; after witnessing the prowess of the ancient dragon, he also held so apprehension toward Ji Dang.
Fortunately, he had three years to prepare.
After the gathering, Chen Qing took off the bronze ghost mask, retracting it into the space within his body.
"Three years, is it?"
"Then I need to hurry, I must enter the Death Realm within three years."
"Preferably entering the Death Realm one step ahead to set the strategy."
He took out the precise map from the Taihao Tribe, placing his finger on the dicine Valley, "First, break through to mid Foundation Establishnt."
"This ti, I should act more arrogantly to inspire their fighting spirit."
"Once we win, it will be easier to confidently take their Spiritual dicine."
The next morning, as Chen Qing just woke up, he heard the noise outside, "Is that Yu Chengfeng's voice?"
"What trouble has that guy stirred up again?"
Chen Qing got up, washed his face with the help of a maid, "Summon Yu Chengfeng in."
Yu Chengfeng hurriedly rushed in, quickly reporting upon seeing Chen Qing, "Protector, it's not good!"
Chen Qing wiped his face, "Speak slowly, don't rush."
Yu Chengfeng said, "It seems the dicine Valley was attacked last night!"
Chen Qing, hearing the news, also felt a bit anxious, "What's going on? We haven't even set out yet?"
Yu Chengfeng said, "I received word from the spy in the dicine Valley, it was Hidden Sword Mountain that struck first!"
Chen Qing asked with confusion, "Is it the Hidden Sword Mountain behind the current royal city's State Preceptor?"
Yu Chengfeng nodded, "That's right, it's Hidden Sword Mountain!"
"The current State Preceptor is from Hidden Sword Mountain!"
Chen Qing continued to ask, "Who went? Was it the heir of Hidden Sword Mountain?"
Yu Chengfeng shook his head, "Such a major figure, equivalent in status to our Young Master, would usually not make a move personally."
