105: transfer order

Sect Master Gu finished speaking, paused his hand, no longer stroking, and held the Jade Slip in his hand. He nodded towards the Elder in charge and flew towards Daoist Yunyan's Immortal Cave.

Outside Jade Moon Peak.

Sect Master Gu's figure appeared, and he respectfully spoke towards the peak of Jade Moon Peak:

"Grand Elder, Gu Li has something to request a meeting for."

"Enter."

A moment later, a clear, cold female voice came out, and Jade Moon Peak's light changed, the Great Formation opened, revealing a passage.

Sect Master Gu Li bowed again, then flew towards the peak of Jade Moon Peak.

At the peak, the Immortal Cave door opened. Inside, Daoist Yunyan had already finished her secluded cultivation and was sitting cross-legged on a futon, looking at the newcomer.

Sect Master Gu Li had already descended before the Immortal Cave and then stepped into the Immortal Cave.

A few feet away, Sect Master Gu Li stopped, circulated a bit of magical power, and sent the Jade Slip towards Daoist Yunyan, who was sitting cross-legged.

"Grand Elder, this is the news from Tianshui City."

Sect Master Gu Li had calmed down by this point; after all, as a Sect Master managing such a large Sect, he naturally had a plan in his heart.

Daoist Yunyan took it, and with a quick glance, already knew its contents.

"Why at this particular time..."

Daoist Yunyan's heart tightened slightly, then she cast a spell, which transformed into a streak of light and left Jade Moon Peak.

A moment later, True Person Qingmu, in the guise of a young boy, arrived from outside.

"Greetings, Grand Elder."

Sect Master Gu bowed in salute, and True Person Qingmu gently raised his hand, helping Sect Master Gu up.

Then, he looked at Daoist Yunyan and said:

"How could the Yao Beasts of the Tianshui Mountain Range suddenly riot?"

"Could it be at the Demon Domain's behest?"

"But how dare they?"

True Person Qingmu's tone was puzzled, clearly, Daoist Yunyan's streak of light had already conveyed the message.

Beyond the depths of the Tianshui Mountain Range lies the Demon Domain.

The hundred Clans of the Demon Domain all reside within this region.

The Tianshui Mountain Range stretches for an unknown number of tens of thousands of miles, bordering many territories.

Huichuan Prefecture is one of them.

Therefore, the Xuanqing Sect had long ago built Tianshui City at the border between the two, serving as the gateway to Huichuan Prefecture.

Xuanqing Sect Cultivators are stationed there year-round.

This news was precisely sent by a Late Foundation Establishment Stage Elder of the Xuanqing Sect stationed in Tianshui City.

"I don't know either."

Daoist Yunyan shook her head with a bitter smile, then continued:

"Now that Senior Brother He is in seclusion, only the two of us can make a decision."

True Person Qingmu heard this and pondered for a moment.

"As things stand, the first step is to inform the three Families to jointly resist the enemy."

"Secondly, we must pass the message up to the Jiang Family."

"Thirdly, we must dispatch Cultivators from various Families and Sects to provide support."

"Fourthly, we must gather information to see if this beast tide is only targeting our prefecture."

"If it is, finding the reason should resolve it. If not..."

True Person Qingmu paused, then continued:

"If not, then the problem must be from above..."

At this point, True Person Qingmu's tone changed, revealing a hint of unknown panic within him.

The more he thought, the more True Person Qingmu sensed something was amiss.

Hearing True Person Qingmu say this, Daoist Yunyan's expression also became solemn.

It had been a very, very long time since the Yao Beasts had caused such a disturbance... "Alright, then let's proceed as such."

Daoist Yunyan thought for a moment, nodded in agreement, then spoke to Gu Li, who was waiting at the side:

"Sect Master, please send out the message."

"Additionally, send another person to the Jiang Family, and make sure to inform them of this information."

"As for investigating the news, send a few more Elders to visit the other prefectures."

The Jiang Family is a Cultivation Family in Qingzhou, with a Nascent Soul True Lord presiding over it, controlling a whole province, and Huichuan Prefecture is located within this Qingzhou.

After speaking, Gu Li assented, bowed to the two, and left Jade Moon Peak.

"Junior Brother, you issue the mobilization order. I will go ahead with Cloud Jiao. If we are late, Tianshui City might not hold out for long."

Daoist Yunyan was decisive; once a decision was made, she no longer delayed. She stood up, took out the beast-taming token, and headed out of Jade Moon Peak.

"Junior Brother, the Sect is entrusted to your care."

The two walked out together, Daoist Yunyan paused, and said to True Person Qingmu.

"Senior Sister, please rest assured."

True Person Qingmu assented.

Above the white clouds, the sleeping Cloud Jiao awakened.

Daoist Yunyan stood upon it, and the clouds and mist beneath the Cloud Jiao gathered, forming a white light that left the Xuanqing Sect and flew towards the Tianshui Mountain Range.

Subsequently, the Xuanqing Sect's bell rang, and within the Sect, all the Disciples emerged from seclusion, going to their respective peaks to receive orders.

A few days later, above the Xuanqing Sect, two huge flying boats ascended, and Xuanqing Sect Disciples were guided onto them one by one. Foundation Establishment Stage Elders were also in position.

The bell rang again, and the flying boats broke through the air with a mighty momentum, startling everyone in their path.

Qingyuan Town, Jade Moon Peak.

In the secret chamber at the peak, Zhou Kaiding, who had been cultivating in seclusion with his eyes closed, suddenly awoke.

He flicked his sleeve, stood up, pushed open the door of the secret chamber, waved his right hand, and the Great Formation opened. A streak of light was received into Zhou Kaiding's hand.

His Divine Sense swept over it, and Zhou Kaiding's heart sank.

"Mobilization order..."

Tightening the Jade Slip in his hand, Zhou Kaiding sighed, truly, the tree desires calm, but the wind does not cease.

Then, he sensed Mo Xuan's location for a moment; his aura was ethereal, with no change.

Zhou Kaiding no longer lingered, closed the door of the secret chamber, went home, and found Zhou Licheng.

Half an hour later.

In the Zhou Family's main hall, Zhou Kaiding, Zhou Licheng, and Zhou Lihai were all gathered.

As for Zhou Liyue, a month ago, she had already taken a foundation establishment pill and entered seclusion to prepare for her Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Zhou Liyue had already been at the Ninth Level of Qi Refining for over four years, and her magical power accumulation was sufficient.

As for the Physical Body aspect, the Zhou Family had a Legacy, so they had naturally made corresponding preparations long ago, not only regularly consuming qingling rice to strengthen the Physical Body.

The Clan had also collected quite a few Spirit Medicine and precious materials.

However, the Divine Soul was extremely mysterious, and the Zhou Family lacked sufficient heritage in this regard.

But with the help of the foundation establishment pill, plus Zhou Liyue's own talent and strong will, the Zhou Family members were not overly worried.

"Father, let me lead the Family's Guest Elders to Tianshui City."

Zhou Lihai spoke.

"Fourth Brother..."

Zhou Licheng's expression changed upon hearing this, and he was about to speak.

"Elder Brother, you are the Family Head; all Family matters must be managed by you, so don't contend with me."

Looking at the two, Zhou Kaiding's heart was heavy.

If possible, he would certainly not let his son go to such a dangerous place.

However, the mobilization order stated clearly that as a Foundation Establishment Stage Family, the Zhou Family must provide not only Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators but also Qi Refining Stage Cultivators.

It was only considering the small number of Zhou Family members that the requirements were relaxed a lot.

Not only the Zhou Family, but all Qi Refining Stage forces in Qingyuan Town could not escape; they all had to send their Clan Disciples to provide support.

"In terms of cultivation, apart from Yue'er, Le Ren has the highest cultivation in the Family, but setting aside myself, as a father and uncle, neither of them would agree."

"Alas..."

He sighed imperceptibly in his heart.

"Father, let me go."

Seeing Zhou Kaiding in thought, and while Zhou Lihai and Zhou Licheng were arguing, Zhou Lihai suddenly called out to Zhou Kaiding.

"Good."

Zhou Kaiding nodded in agreement.

"Father, this..."

Zhou Licheng's expression changed. Seeing Zhou Kaiding agree, he was about to say something but was pulled by Zhou Lihai, interrupting his words.

"Family matters are entrusted to you."

Zhou Kaiding looked at Zhou Licheng and instructed in a deep voice.

Then, he looked at Zhou Lihai again:

"You go with the Family's Guest Elders and the Cultivators from the other Families. There's no need to rush; taking it slow is fine."

"Alright."

The two assented. Zhou Kaiding stood up, found Lin Muwan, and informed her of the matter.

Then he rose and flew out of Jade Moon Peak.

He, however, could not wait and had to rush immediately; moreover, some matters still needed to be explained.

Outside Jade Moon Peak, Zhou Kaiding paused, looking back.

Compared to when he first arrived, Jade Moon Peak was still the same, but the scenery was vastly different.

After a long while, Zhou Kaiding turned and flew into the distance.
