61: Planning

Yuan Country Imperial Palace.

In the main hall.

Yuan Yi was sitting in the main seat, listening to her subordinates' reports.

"Lord, we have investigated the situation in Yue Country!"

"It is said that Yue Country's Seven-An True Person is currently vigorously selecting Dan Formation and Foundation Establishment candidates."

"Furthermore, according to the spies, Heavenly Dao Sect's Envoy Luo visited Yue Country not long ago, but then left in a hurry."

"Oh?"

Yuan Yi opened her eyes.

"Presumably, that Lord Luo was summoned by that Xu Qi'an, but then discovered I was acting in the background, and retreated because of my Revered Master!"

"Your subordinate does not know, but what is certain is that Envoy Luo gave Yue Country some Dan Formation and Foundation Establishment resources."

"It is precisely because of this batch of resources that Yue Country is vigorously selecting Dan Formation and Foundation Establishment candidates."

"According to the spies, a total of six Cultivators have been selected as Dan Formation candidates!"

As soon as these words came out, a furious roar immediately echoed in the magnificent palace: "Damn it, why does that Luo He obstruct me again and again!"

"Just because he is a Nascent Soul Stage?"

Yuan Yi then threw out a jade cup, which fell to the ground and shattered, causing the Cultivators below to break out in a cold sweat.

At this moment, a person flew in from outside the hall.

This person had proper features, was tall and imposing, with a hint of scholarly air, and his brows exuded arrogance.

As soon as he entered the gate, he smiled and said, "What is bothering Huang jie?"

Seeing the newcomer, Yuan Yi's expression immediately improved: "It's Feng'er, did you finish your secluded cultivation? Come quickly!"

The newcomer was none other than Yuan Yi's younger brother, Yuan Feng, who had a cultivation base of Dan Formation fourth layer.

"Just broke through to Dan Formation fourth layer, so I came to see elder sister?"

Hearing that her younger brother had broken through to Dan Formation fourth layer, the joy on Yuan Yi's face seemed even greater than when she herself broke through.

"Good, good, good!"

"Feng'er is indeed the number one Genius of my Yuan family, breaking through to Dan Formation fourth layer at such a young age!"

Yuan Feng greatly enjoyed the words "Genius" and became self-indulgently intoxicated.

Yuan Yi, on the other hand, motioned for her subordinates to leave.

Yuan Feng quickly recovered and asked with a hint of curiosity, "Huang jie, what is it? Tell me quickly!"

Yuan Yi sighed: "You were in secluded cultivation and didn't know, many things have happened in the past ten years."

"Most importantly, our Yuan Country could have annexed Yue Country and broken the shackles, but we were interfered with repeatedly!"

"One is that Nascent Soul Stage Luo He, and the other is that Dan Formation Cultivator Xu Qi'an."

"The situation is like this..."

Yuan Feng listened for a while and understood the situation, then said with extreme ruthlessness.

"Huang jie, can't you ask your Revered Master to make that Nascent Soul Stage Luo He behave himself?"

"Behaving, this is already considered very well-behaved."

"After all, he is a Nascent Soul Stage ancestor of the Heavenly Dao Sect, no matter how great my Revered Master's power is, it is impossible for them to kill each other!"

"Furthermore, I am not the only Disciple my Revered Master has!"

Yuan Yi sighed, her expression filled with worry.

Yuan Feng, however, let out a cold laugh after hearing this: "Since we can't do anything to that Nascent Soul Stage, then we can definitely do something about the Dan Formation Cultivators in Yue Country!"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Yi's expression became serious: "Feng'er, are you thinking of getting rid of that Dan Formation Cultivator?"

"This is not allowed. There is an agreement between Cultivation Countries that killing and fighting between Cultivation Countries of the same level is not permitted!"

"We can only wait until ten years later, if Yue Country fails to meet the Nascent Soul Decree quota!"

Yuan Feng's expression instantly turned cold, and he said angrily, "This is not allowed, and that is not allowed!"

"The rules of this Cultivation Alliance are really troublesome!"

Yuan Yi, however, comforted him: "Feng'er, don't worry about this matter, you just need to Cultivate well, leave this matter to me!"

Yuan Feng nodded with a somewhat unpleasant expression, and then, as if he thought of something, he sneered in his heart: "Since the direct approach doesn't work, then the indirect approach should work!"

"Watch me cause some trouble for Yue Country to make Huang jie happy."

......

Floating Cloud Sect.

Li Yebai came to Xu Qi'an's cave dwelling to report on the selection of Foundation Establishment candidates.

"Sect Leader, the Foundation Establishment candidates have been selected. This is the Jade Slip I recorded, which contains the information of these hundreds of Foundation Establishment candidates."

"Please review it, Sect Leader."

Xu Qi'an's voice came from inside the cave dwelling: "I understand. Did you encounter any difficulties?"

Li Yebai sighed: "There were no difficulties, but the expressions of the various forces in Yue Country were not very good."

"After all, the standards you set are somewhat stringent, which resulted in the Disciples of many powerful clans in Yue Country being excluded."

Hearing this, Xu Qi'an sneered: "These powerful clans still have the mood to regret this small amount of profit. Do they not understand the sword hanging over Yue Country's head?"

"Just ignore them. If we can overcome this hurdle, then it will be time for the forces in Yue Country to be reshuffled."

Li Yebai suddenly understood upon hearing this.

Xu Qi'an continued: "Have those Foundation Establishment candidates been properly arranged?"

"Foundation Establishment candidates must also be placed in the Floating Cloud Sect, I told you this. Also, during this period, be sure to fully activate the Sect Protection Formation. I am afraid that Cultivators from the Three Great Countries will do something bad at this time!"

"Also, restart the National Lockdown Formation!"

Li Yebai nodded silently to the previous words.

But the latter words made Li Yebai stunned.

"Sect Leader, I'm afraid it's not possible. The National Lockdown Formation consumes a lot of resources. The past ten years have already emptied the entire Floating Cloud Sect's reserves. Now there are simply no ling stones left to maintain the National Lockdown Formation!"

"If we really want to maintain it, we must borrow from all the Cultivators in Yue Country, but we have just finished selecting the Foundation Establishment candidates and distributing resources. If we do this again now, I'm afraid..."

Xu Qi'an smiled: "I naturally know this. I will provide the ling stones for this National Lockdown Formation."

"You don't need to activate the most powerful National Lockdown Formation, just maintain it at the Foundation Establishment level normally."

"If any Dan Formation come to cause trouble, then activate the highest level!"

Immediately, Xu Qi'an threw out a storage bag.

Li Yesheng quickly took it into his hand, opened it, and was instantly shocked.

"Ten high-grade ling stones, one hundred middle-grade ling stones, and over ten thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

Although these ling stones did not reach the previous level, they were more than enough to meet Xu Qi'an's requirements.

"I will go now!"

Li Yesheng happily hugged the storage bag and left Xu Qi'an's cave dwelling.

Seeing that he had finally handled all the matters, Xu Qi'an felt temporarily relieved.

"Finally, everything is arranged. Now they just need to Cultivate peacefully and break through. I have done my best!"

"If it is truly impossible, I still have to run away..."

With that said, Xu Qi'an once again plunged back into cultivation.
