Huoyun Yurou's eyes narrowed slightly, appearing she had expected this a long time ago. "What about others?"
Yu Rongxi answered. "I did according to Senior's plan, and indeed, Lang Moxie has come out of his seclusion. His realm is not different from Zi Taiyang."
"That old wolf benefited a lot from the Sky Qilin Clan." Huoyun Yurou said with a sigh.
Lang Moxie, the previous patriarch of the Netherworld Wolf Clan, was considered a junior of Huoyun Yurou. In the past, his profound strength was far inferior to hers, but everything was different now.
Everyone went silent for a moment. They could foresee a difficult battle waiting for them in the next few days.
Jin Yang took a deep breath and said. "Pei Feng is still the same. It seems he didn't make it until the end. As for Tianqi Zongwei, he didn't seem to care much about worldly affairs like usual."
Huoyun Yurou shook her head slightly. "He sent his right-handed man to observe me not long ago."
On hearing this, Jin Yang and Yu Rongxi glanced at each other with solemn expressions.
"It's not a big deal." Huoyun Yurou glanced at them. "Sooner or later, he will eventually come out. I've always included him in my calculation."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Senior, isn't this too risky?" Yu Rongxi couldn't help asking.
Huoyun Yurou looked at her with a faint smile. "Little Girl Rongxi. In your position, being indecisive and too much cautious will harm you and your clan in the long run. You will miss a little opportunity because of this… There's no better chance than this. We are either fighting them to death or getting suppressed for the rest of our lives. And who knows? Perhaps they would really disregard the ancient pact and get rid of us all one day."
She took a deep look at Yu Rongxi and Jin Yang before continuing. "Tianqi Zongwei's ambition is higher than the sky. His dream has always been to replace the Azure Palace and dominate this world. Since we cannot be his pawns, there's the only route for us."
Yu Rongxi fell into deep thought. Before receiving the letter from Huoyun Yurou and coming here, she always believed it was unnecessary to fight with those people. Anyway, her clan could simply evacuate to the Endless Sea and go to other continents.
However, she had just realized how naïve her thinking was. No matter where she and her clan went, she would never be able to get rid of Tianqi Zongwei in the end. It was only a matter of time.
As for Jin Yang, he had always been aware of this point. That was why he didn't hesitate to go all out from the beginning.
Yu Rongxi bowed her head toward Huoyun Yurou and said solemnly. "I've been taught, Senior."
Huoyun Yurou smiled kindly. "It's been hard for you. Leading the clan at such a young age is not easy."
As soon as she finished speaking, her expression changed slightly. "Someone is coming."
Yun Lintian was the first to react. He deactivated the isolating formation and walked to the door, opening it directly.
The receptionist was surprised upon seeing Yun Lintian opening the door. She quickly calmed down and greeted him. "Sorry for disturbing your rest. I've something to inform you."
"Go ahead." Yun Lintian motioned with his chin.
"In order to celebrate Young Master Pei's marriage, our Nine Profound Pavilion has decided to hold an auction tomorrow. We are sincerely inviting all of you here to participate in it." The receptionist said and handed a few golden letters to Yun Lintian. "These are invitation letters. Please show them to the pavilion receptionist tomorrow. Thank you."
After finishing her sentence, the receptionist turned around and left directly.
Yun Lintian stared at her back for a moment and closed the door, returning to his seat. He placed the invitation letters on the table and asked. "Would Seniors like to participate in this auction?"
Jin Yang frowned. "Auction… They probably set up this to humiliate us."
Yun Lintian immediately understood. Everyone here, except him, could be considered a pauper. It was almost impossible for them to compete for any item in the incoming auction. Inviting them to the auction event was no different from humiliating them.
Huoyun Yurou smiled and said. "Why not go? It's time to see our old friends."
Yu Rongxi hesitated briefly and didn't say anything in the end.
Seeing this, Yun Lintian said with a mysterious smile. "I understand your worries, Seniors, but we are not necessarily poor as you think."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJin Yang and Yu Rongxi looked at him in puzzlement. Among them, Yun Lintian should be the last person who says this. After all, the Fire Cloud Rat Clan couldn't even earn enough to have a full meal.
"Since this is the first time I met two Seniors. As a junior, I should give Seniors a greeting gift." Yun Lintian took two storage rings out and handed them to Jin Yang and Yu Rongxi. "Please accept this."
Initially, Jing Yang and Yu Rongxi wanted to refuse, but they met Huoyun Yurou's reassuring gaze and had to accept in the end.
"This…." When both of them looked at the content inside, they were immediately bewildered and raised their heads to look at Yun Lintian in shock.
"We cannot accept this." Yu Rongxi took a deep breath and pushed the ring back to Yun Lintian.
"Yes. This gift is too much." Jin Yang said with a serious expression.
Yun Lintian stared straight into their eyes, and he didn't see any trace of greed in them. He nodded inwardly and believed these two people were worthy of trust.
He pushed the rings back and said calmly. "Please accept it, Seniors. This amount of Profound Stones is nothing to us."
Jin Yang and Yu Rongxi's faces twitched slightly… You said a hundred million high-grade Profound Stones are not much? Did you own a Profound Stone mine or something?
"Take it and use it to improve your clan." Huoyun Yurou encouraged.
Jin Yang hesitated for a moment and cupped his fists. "Thank you, Young Master Huoyun and Senior."
On the side, Yu Jiao'er was curious about the content inside the ring. She peeked at her master briefly and boldly grabbed the ring. Her eyes widened open, and she said to Yun Lintian in disbelief after seeing the Profound Stones inside. "Brother Huoyun, did you rob someone's treasury before coming here?"
"This child…." Yu Rongxi was speechless by her disciple's action.
