While Yue Yun and Hongyue discussed the situation, Yun Lintian t with Long Qingxuan and enjoyed a pleasant al with her.
"There's been nothing going on lately. The Primordial God Tribe has simply disappeared," Long Qingxuan said.
"I see. That's strange." Yun Lintian frowned slightly. "You can't find any trace of them at all?"
"Unfortunately, no," Long Qingxuan shook her head. "Senior Yun Yi and Sister ilan haven't found anything either. It's like they have vanished."
Yun Lintian nodded slowly. "That's fine. They are not a threat for now. I guess they will appear later when the battle with the outlaws begins."
"Let's go," he said, rising and heading toward Hongyue's room.
When he arrived, Hongyue was already fully recovered. The crystal on her arm had disappeared, which stunned Yun Lintian.
"Fortunately, you've recovered," Yun Lintian said. "How did you remove the crystal?"
Hongyue pretended to know nothing. "I don't know. After I recovered my energy, the crystal gradually disappeared on its own."
Yun Lintian furrowed his brow. Yue Yun had already returned to the training ground. Perhaps it had sothing to do with her. However, Yun Lintian had no intention of asking about it.
"You shouldn't have pushed yourself like that," Yun Lintian said seriously. "If it weren't for Rui Xian, you would be gone. Mumu would be in danger as well."
Hongyue raised her brow slightly and curled her lips. "Oh? Now you dare to talk to like this, huh? Well, you've beco stronger. You indeed have the right to speak... Ah, I miss the days when you were a pitiful weakling."
Yun Lintian was speechless.
"Let's go back," he said, changing the topic and walking out.
Mumu ca over and jumped onto Hongyue's shoulder. She looked at Hongyue briefly and said, "He's right, though."
Hongyue stared at Yun Lintian's back with mixed emotions. Yue Yun's revelation had changed her feelings toward Yun Lintian. Honestly, she didn't know how to face him now. She wasn't Yue Hong, but it would be a lie to say she wasn't affected.
"I know," Hongyue said gently and followed Yun Lintian, returning to the Ancient Battlefield. After Yun Lintian's group left, Long Qingxuan suddenly received a ssage from Yun Yi. Her expression changed drastically, and she hurried to find her mother.
"What happened?" Long Xi asked, seeing her daughter's anxious expression.
"Mom, a crack appeared on the wall," Long Qingxuan said quickly.
Long Xi's expression changed slightly. She turned to Long Xuan. "I'm going to take a look."
"Let go, Sister-in-law," Long Xuan offered, rising.
"No. You stay here and inform everyone. I have experienced this before. I can estimate how much ti we have," Long Xi stopped him.
She turned to Long Qingxuan. "You should go back and train more. Leave this to ." "Understood. Be careful, Mom," Long Qingxuan responded and went to the training chamber.
"Sister-in-law..." Long Xuan started to say but was interrupted by Long Xi.
"If I'm right, we have at most ten years," Long Xi said with a serious expression. "We have to buy as much ti as possible for Lintian and the others. Do you understand?"
Long Xuan's expression turned solemn. "I understand."
"Good. Stay here," Long Xi said and walked away.
Long Xuan took a deep breath and went to find Yue Hua and the others.
Upon returning to the Ancient Battlefield, Yun Lintian spent a day to refine more pills before leaving the city and heading toward the Central Region.
***
After departing from Yun Lintian's group, Rui Xian flew toward the Northern Region. There were a few months before the Central Region would open again. He would use this ti to search for his master's legacy in case he had missed sothing on his previous trips.
"You shouldn't have saved her."
Suddenly, a female voice echoed from behind, causing Rui Xian to turn and draw his sword. Standing before him was Tantai Xue.
"Who are you?" Rui Xian asked calmly.
"As expected of the last inheritor of the Naless Sword God. Your ntal strength is indeed impressive," Tantai Xue said gently. "Whether or not it was because of your master's will, you shouldn't have interfered with Yue Hong's fate."
"Yue Hong?" Rui Xian frowned slightly. He rembered saving Hongyue, not Yue Hong.
"Now, you have beco a pawn in this grand sche," Tantai Xue added.
"What are you trying to say?" Rui Xian frowned deeply. He couldn't understand the woman in front of him. She was even more mysterious than Yun Lintian.
"Your fate," Tantai Xue said gently, "is about to co to an end. Had you ignored her, you would have lived longer. What a pity. You could have beco a powerful general in my army." She turned and flew away, leaving Rui Xian puzzled.
***
Yun Lintian, Nantian Fengyu, and Hongyue flew all the way toward the Central Region. It took them an entire week to arrive at a large city not far from the Central Region.
Inside the city, countless cultivators filled the streets. It was even more lively than any other city Yun Lintian had visited.
"Be careful," Hongyue said. "There are a lot of thieves here."
"Thieves?" Yun Lintian was surprised.
"Their skills are very strange. My resources were stolen twice here without knowing," Hongyue said.
"Oh? I want to see what kind of thieves you're talking about." Yun Lintian chuckled. He suspected these thieves must be proficient in the spatial elent. Otherwise, it would be difficult to steal from people without them noticing.
"Oh no! Where is my storage ring?" Suddenly, a young cultivator in front of Yun Lintian exclaid anxiously. His storage ring had been stolen.
The other cultivators looked around briefly and ignored him. Clearly, they were used to such scenes.
Yun Lintian was surprised and activated the Eyes of Heaven. Soon, he discovered sothing strange: a creature made of energy slipping through the crowd like a ghost. Its speed was
incredible. Wherever it passed, it would reach out to steal people's items.
"Follow ," Yun Lintian said and quickly chased after the unknown creature.
The creature seed to notice Yun Lintian's presence. It hurriedly shuttled through the crowd and turned into an alleyway before disappearing into a small building.
"What did you see?" Hongyue asked.
"A thief," Yun Lintian responded and headed straight for the building. He looked at the sign engraved with the words "Fortune Telling" hanging on the door with an interesting
expression.
Without thinking too much, he pushed the door open and walked in.
