Long Rui?!
The Yue siblings turned their heads together, looking at Long Rui in shock.
Being watched by them like this, Long Rui blushed and said softly, "I will send Grandpa out. He... is my grandpa too, isn’t he? Actually, I’ve always relied on Minzhi’s support in the Divine Court Ruins to avoid being eliminated. My strength is not strong; rather than dragging others down here, it’s better to leave earlier."
Initially, Long Rui had so shyness, but later, she sighed, "Minzhi, even though I really want to stay with you until the very last mont. Even though I’ll always be concerned about you after leaving the ruins, I know nothing is more important to you than the safety of your family. I... am your fiancée, I ought to help take care of your family. So please hand Grandpa over to , I’ll take him away. This is the best arrangent, both of you should stay in the Divine Court Ruins to find the Liangyi Grass. After the Xuyang Trial ends, we’ll bring Grandpa ho together."
Long Rui’s words brought tears to Yue Minzhi’s eyes; he gazed deeply at Long Rui.
Indeed, Long Rui had grown.
Her growth was not in terms of cultivation, but in a thorough developnt of her mind.
In the past, she loved Yue Minzhi madly, single-mindedly, not allowing even a grain of sand in her eyes.
But now, she loves Yue Minzhi even more, rationally, considering the bigger picture; she knows family is always Yue Minzhi’s weak point.
She wants to replace Yue Minzhi in protecting his weakness, to let the man she loves beco a strong and towering figure.
After hearing these words, Yue Jinghua felt a bit guilty.
She decided never to tell Long Rui about the matter concerning Long Ao.
At Long Rui’s insistence, after subduing Lie Changgong, the Yue siblings escorted Long Rui and Lie Changgong to the nearest transmission point.
Luckily, Lie Changgong had killed quite a few Four Symbols Team mbers; by taking a ring at random and using the spiritual imprint of Four Symbols City on it, one could send people out.
Long Rui and Lie Changgong disappeared together into the transmission array.
"Huahua, I still have sothing hidden from you. Actually, Hu Li not only told the whereabouts of the Liangyi Grass, but also provided a thod to enter Zhuqiu. I... ford a temporary alliance with the Sparrow Team," after Long Rui left, Yue Minzhi indeed felt much relieved, at least he no longer needed to consider Long Rui’s temper and could embrace cooperation with Hu Li.
"Big brother, this ti you’re just too reckless," Yue Jinghua couldn’t help but react with anger.
A temporary alliance ans during the ti entering Zhuqiu, the Dragon Team and Sparrow Team will maintain a friendly relationship, and there won’t be conflict among mbers; if attacked by mbers of another team, the other team’s mbers must help unconditionally.
"For Grandpa’s sake, I can only compromise temporarily. After Grandpa leaves, you need to be particularly careful and avoid acting alone unless necessary," Yue Minzhi knew Yue Jinghua would bla him, but he had no other way.
Yue Minzhi’s temperant was identical to Yue Jinghua’s; once he decided, not even ten ox carts could pull him back.
After returning to the stone house, Yue Jinghua made a decision without saying a word.
"What? We’re also going to form an alliance? With the Martial Arts Team? Captain, you’ve got to be kidding; don’t forget who was responsible for Shalman’s death. If we’re to ally, it should be with the Tiger Team, they’re the strongest squad right now," Compass was the first to jump up in disagreent.
"How many tis have I said it? Alive, we want to see the person; dead, we want to see the corpse. Until we find Shalman, no one can ntion the word ’dead’. Why should we ally with the Tiger Team? Do you even know where the Tiger Team is? Form an alliance?!" Yue Jinghua hadn’t cooled off, annoyed at how easily her brother was swayed by Hu Li and what resulted from their alliance, Yue Jinghua felt a belly full of grievances.
With Yue Jinghua’s shouting, Compass imdiately beca silent, unable to utter a word.
The Tiger Team was indeed elusive.
Among other teams, so people had recklessly attempted to assassinate Yue Jinghua, but the Tiger Team was completely absent.
Zong Shaoqing had seemingly disappeared into thin air.
Yue Jinghua’s proposition was a consideration from all angles.
Currently, all teams including those from other continents have thoroughly searched the Sky Witch Ancient Village but there’s no trace of the Heavenly Witch Pill; its only possible location is Zhuqiu.
Zhuqiu is perilously unknown; entering alone equals suicide.
If allied with the Martial Arts Team, the strength greatly increases.
Additionally, Yue Jinghua knows that Fa Xiaoyi, once a spy king, Liao is the most perfect partner.
They have collaborated in completing countless dangerous missions.
This ti, they can still cooperate seamlessly.
When Yue Jinghua suggested this to Ying Wuwang, he readily accepted her proposal.
Yue Jinghua imdiately sent Xi Yuan to deliver the ssage, and before long, she received a reply.
"He agreed indeed; three days later, it’ll be the ti in a month when Zhuqiu’s mist lifts, we should prepare to enter Zhuqiu," Ying Wuwang said with a friendly face, yet the cold gleam in his eyes didn’t escape Yue Jinghua’s notice.
The night arrived quietly.
At this ti, ordinary people’s houses are already lit up warmly, with the aroma of food wafting around.
However, in a humble dwelling within the Sky Witch Ancient Village, in deep inside an ancient well, a weak glow flickered like a firefly, soon fading away.
A mber dressed as a Tiger Team mber stood sideways, holding a petite Blue Snow Candle, raising it beside Zong Shaoqing.
The captain of the elusive Tiger Team, Divine Son Zong Shaoqing, was unexpectedly hidden beneath an empty well.
Yet his hiding spot was sowhat peculiar, surrounded by various books.
Ti has passed, eons gone by, yet most of the books here are well-preserved, free of mold or pests; everything here seems carefully arranged like soone’s purposely maintained them, every part intact.
Zong Shaoqing casually flipped through these books, having stayed here for six or seven days since he "eradicated" the Dark Demon Army, remaining here.
Until he found a book crafted with an Iron Token, he stopped his hands.
"Unexpectedly, Mother was right; this handbook concerning the prosperity or disgrace of the Sky Witch is indeed here. Hong Lei, co and take a look, see if it’s Mother’s handwriting," Zong Shaoqing gestured to the Martial Arts Team mber holding the candle beside him.
The candlelight flickered, illuminating the face of the Martial Arts Team mber, revealing the face to be none other than Demon General Hong Lei from the Dark Demon Army.
