……
Lan Wei.
This person was the Scripture Hall Elder of Qingchan Peak in Kongshan Sect.
He was amiable by nature and had left quite a deep impression on Chen Yan during the outer court competition.
He was Fu Qian's trusted confidant and right-hand man.
There was only one answer for why Elder Lan Wei would appear here.
It was definitely under Elder Fu Qian's instructions.
Chen Yan suddenly realized how truly foolish he had been.
Really.
He only knew that after the catastrophe in the outer court ended, Bai Qiming's faction were the biggest beneficiaries.
But he didn't realize that this kind of power struggle was mutual.
Were Fu Qian's lineage really so pure and innocent?
The victor becos king, the loser becos a bandit.
They had simply lost.
Chen Yan suddenly realized that Lin Qifeng's advice to him had always been correct.
Don't get involved in Qingchan Peak's ss.
But he hadn't listened.
And now, with two lives as lessons, he finally understood how right Lin Qifeng's words were.
"Instructor Lu, you're too polite. When Instructor Lu was still at Yuanhua Mountain, I also received much grace from you."
Li Hanzhou's voice ca through.
Chen Yan opened his eyes, then his thoughts rapidly churned.
What should he do next?
The reason Elder Fu Qian chose to take action against Lu Li and Qin Yue indicated he had realized that from the loss of the Black Flood Dragon Remnant Soul to Song Mingde's death, Elder Bai was likely behind it all.
Fu Qian might not yet know what Bai Qiming intended to do, but his intuition and experience told him he couldn't just wait passively.
Qin Yue possessed the Glazed Pure Body, and given ti, she would definitely beco a top combatant for Bai Qiming's faction.
As for Lu Li, he was an even more troubleso chess piece that Bai Qiming had planted within the Scripture Hall.
In conflicts at the level of Fu Qian and Bai Qiming, making Chen Yan vanish into dust was rely an instant's work.
But he wasn't completely without backing either.
Chen Yan looked down at the gold-trimd cloud crane patterns on his sleeve.
Although sowhat reluctant to admit it, the other two grasshoppers tied to the sa rope with him were indeed his only reliance.
"I'll return to the sect first then, everyone take care."
Li Hanzhou said, then left with Qian Xun.
"Instructor Lu."
Before Lu Li could speak, Chen Yan proactively stepped forward first, then bowed:
"This disciple has so matters to attend to and wishes to temporarily take leave."
"What matters?"
Lu Li asked.
"So personal affairs."
Chen Yan replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
If Lu Li refused his request, Chen Yan wouldn't mind confronting him.
His current cultivation had reached Martial Spring Realm mid-stage, with minor mastery of the Hidden Immortal Art.
He could clearly feel the smooth circulation of his true energy after his cultivation art's realm improved.
The Hidden Immortal Art was definitely no ordinary cultivation thod.
From its ability to conceal energy signatures, even making true immortals unable to see through his cultivation level, this was evident.
Not every cultivation thod could carry the character "immortal" in its na.
At the very least, none of the cultivation thods from the Five Great Sects of Chenping Continent had that qualification.
At the sa ti, Chen Yan also possessed the Soul Ice Needles and Shadow Binding Rope, two magical instrunts.
Although Lu Li's cultivation was at Martial Spring Realm peak and above, half-step Qi Sea Realm, Chen Yan still had confidence he could escape from Lu Li's hands.
No matter what, he had to go to the managent office to seek reinforcents.
Perhaps he could flee Taiyun City alone, but Chen Yan was unwilling to do so.
Chen Yan had experienced about thirty reincarnations so far.
He had already realized the importance of each reincarnation node.
Perhaps escaping could free him from the current reincarnation node, but it couldn't free him from the quagmire of fate.
Chen Yan wanted to borrow Yue Chi and Lin Qifeng's power to completely shake off Fu Qian's control.
Personal affairs?
Lu Li remained silent for a mont, his thoughts unreadable.
But soon, Lu Li spoke:
"Alright, go quickly and return soon. This sect mission is critically important, don't cause more trouble for your master."
"This disciple understands."
Chen Yan bowed to Lu Li again, then imdiately left Cloud Prince Manor and hurried toward the direction of Kongshan Sect's Stationed Envoy Residence.
When he reached the managent office, the elderly stationed envoy was still sitting in the courtyard drinking tea.
"Fellow Daoist?"
Seeing Chen Yan enter the courtyard, the old man seed sowhat surprised:
"Why have you returned so quickly?"
"Senior, I need to send another urgent ssage... no, I need to use the Spirit Mirror."
Chen Yan said.
"Spirit Mirror?"
The stationed manager's expression slightly changed.
The Spirit Mirror was quite a common mass-produced magical instrunt in the cultivation world. Using spirit stones as dium, it could project images and transmit sound across distances in real ti.
But using the Spirit Mirror consud massive amounts of spirit stones every second.
For outposts of the stationed envoy residence's level, although they were equipped with Spirit Mirrors, they might not be used even once in several years.
"What happened that's so urgent?"
The stationed envoy asked Chen Yan.
"This junior has urgent matters that need imdiate reporting to Elder Yue of Kongyuan Mountain's Alchemy Hall."
Chen Yan declared clearly.
"Alright."
The stationed envoy looked serious:
"But this old man must state clearly upfront, if the sect investigates the use of the Spirit Mirror, all responsibility will fall on you, Fellow Daoist."
"That goes without saying."
Chen Yan replied.
The stationed envoy was rely an outer court Qi Circulation Realm disciple. Perhaps in Taiyun City, relying on Kongshan Sect's prestige and the importance of his position, his status was quite high.
But before the sect, a stationed envoy was nothing.
Chen Yan was different. Although Lin Qifeng was still imprisoned at Kongyuan Mountain's rear cliff, he was still the sect master's personal disciple's personal disciple after all.
His weight within the sect was considerably heavier, and if the sky fell, his master would support him.
Although his master didn't seem particularly favored by the sect master within the sect either.
The young page from the managent office led Chen Yan to a room in the corner of the residence.
The room wasn't large. In the center stood a huge mirror about six feet in diater, surrounded by twenty-four stone sculptures, each embedded with one hundred high-grade spirit stones.
This was the Spirit Mirror and its formation array.
As the formation array began operating, massive amounts of spiritual energy erging from the twenty-four stone sculptures started gathering toward the Spirit Mirror.
The Spirit Mirror began emitting dazzling light, then the scene of Kongyuan Mountain's Alchemy Hall slowly appeared on the projected image.
"Junior Brother Chen?"
The person appearing on the screen wore a yellow robe—it was Yue Chi's disciple Zhao Bin.
"Senior Brother Zhao, I have matters that need imdiate reporting to Martial Uncle Yue."
Chen Yan said.
"What matters?"
Zhao Bin asked.
"Cloud Prince Manor has changed, Qingchan Peak has changed! Please ask Martial Uncle Yue to send reinforcents!"
