130: Has the successor of the Tide Palace been confirmed? Action taken.
"However, thinking you can surpass me, I'm afraid that's impossible." Mysterious Ink muttered to himself.
The stronger Ye Feiyan became, the more Experience Points he could earn per second.
Want to surpass him? Heh.
He flicked his massive dragon tail, shifted into a more comfortable position, and closed those majestic dragon pupils, which were filled with a sense of laziness, once again.
The entire Small Courtyard returned to its usual tranquility.
Meanwhile, far away, ten thousand miles away, inside that underground palace in Three Seas City, which was filled with an eerie and ominous aura.
True Lord Sanhai was kneeling respectfully, perhaps even humbly, before the ice bed crafted from Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Jade.
"Reporting to Young Lord!"
"Just moments ago, your subordinate received a secret report!"
"That Ye Feiyan of the Beast Taming Sect has successfully passed the Nascent Soul Thunder Tribulation and has officially stepped into the... Nascent Soul Realm!"
"Oh?"
Jia Wenmo, who sat cross-legged, slowly opened his narrow eyes.
On his handsome face, which possessed an effeminate air, a trace of intrigued... surprise appeared.
"Ye Feiyan?"
"Heh... this is truly quite interesting."
"I didn't expect that this barren, backward East Sea Region could actually give birth to such a brilliant... talent!"
However, this surprise was merely fleeting.
A mere yellow-haired girl who had just stepped into the Nascent Soul Realm was not worth his excessive attention.
His narrow eyes, filled with endless coldness and unquestionable authority, fell upon True Lord Sanhai.
"Do you have the results regarding the 'Tidal Palace' Legacy successor I asked you to investigate?"
His voice, filled with endless chill and a hint of impatience, slowly sounded.
"All my guards have infiltrated Fallen Immortal City!"
"So much time has passed, can you really not find a mere Legacy successor?"
Upon hearing this, the figure of True Lord Sanhai, which had been full of respect, trembled violently.
"Replying to the Young Lord!"
He dared not show the slightest negligence and hurriedly kowtowed, saying: "It has been confirmed, the Tidal Palace Legacy successor is indeed Lin Yao."
"However..."
He paused, a trace of deep wariness appearing on his face.
"However, the defenses within Fallen Immortal City are currently far too strict."
"Not only is the Beast Taming Sect Master, Shangguan Jing, personally stationed there."
"Even that Ancestor Jin, who is already at the end of his rope, is still clinging to life."
"If we make a move directly in Fallen Immortal City, I fear the Young Lord's guards wouldn't be able to leave the city." True Lord Sanhai's tone was filled with helplessness.
"Useless!"
Upon hearing this, Jia Wenmo's handsome face, previously filled with an effeminate air, was instantly replaced by a cold, murderous aura.
"If you dare not attack by force, can you not use your brain?!"
"I will give you one last chance."
"Go and investigate immediately!"
"Find out what Lin Yao likes in his life."
"Whether it be Cultivation Techniques, Medicinal Pills, or even... women."
"Use the method of 'catering to his preferences'."
"You must lure him out of that tortoise shell called Fallen Immortal City for me."
"Do you understand?"
He stared fixedly at True Lord Sanhai, and as if remembering something, continued.
"Remember!"
"I want him... alive."
"Yes! Young Lord!"
Upon hearing this, True Lord Sanhai, as if granted amnesty, scrambled out with his figure, which had been full of terror, rolling and crawling away.
In the blink of an eye, three days had quietly passed.
Ye Feiyan remained in the Cultivation Chamber, not stepping out, fully refining the two Nascent Souls that Mysterious Ink had given her.
As for Mysterious Ink, he remained like a salted fish indifferent to the world, lazily coiled upon the Ten-Thousand-Year Cold Jade bed, bathing in the warm... sunlight.
However, this Tranquil Courtyard now had a touch of worldly life.
Because of Ding Xiaoxue.
Ever since she learned that Mysterious Ink needed to eat daily to satisfy his appetite, she had taken the initiative to take on the task of cooking mortal delicacies for Mysterious Ink.
Just like now.
Ding Xiaoxue was busy in the kitchen, preparing today's lunch for Mysterious Ink.
However!
Just as Ding Xiaoxue was carrying that plate of fragrant roasted meat, preparing to feed Mysterious Ink who was lazily basking in the sun.
Mysterious Ink's majestic dragon pupils, which had been half-closed, suddenly narrowed without warning.
His massive dragon head slowly lifted, looking toward a certain direction in Fallen Immortal City.
"Hmm?"
Just a moment ago, in that instant, his terrifying Divine Sense, which had already completely enveloped the entire Fallen Immortal City, keenly captured a familiar figure.
Lin Yao.
That brat had actually, sneakily, left the Tranquil Courtyard that was exclusive to him and was speeding directly toward the city gates of Fallen Immortal City.
"Heh..."
In Mysterious Ink's majestic dragon pupils, which were filled with a sense of laziness, a trace of cold playfulness flashed.
"Unable to hold back, are you going to make a move?"
Ever since that day when he heard Ye Feiyan's analysis regarding ancient families, he had secretly separated a negligible strand of his Divine Sense, keeping it locked onto Lin Yao at all times.
He wanted to see, who exactly was the mastermind watching Lin Yao, who even knew about his Primordial Black Dragon Bloodline.
After watching for several days, now... there was finally some movement.
He no longer hesitated.
That thought, filled with endless majesty and a hint of solemnity, pierced through the layers of Restrictions of the Cultivation Chamber and resounded directly within Ye Feiyan's mind.
"Lin Yao has left, it might be an inducement by those secretly watching him."
"Shall we follow?"
Inside the Cultivation Chamber.
Ye Feiyan, who was refining the Nascent Soul, suddenly opened her phoenix eyes.
Hum!
The next moment.
The tightly closed stone door burst open.
Her peerlessly elegant figure in white turned into a stream of light and appeared directly before Mysterious Ink.
"Where did he go?"
"Is he still inside Fallen Immortal City, or has he left the city?" She asked.
With Shangguan Jing and Ancestor Jin in Fallen Immortal City, the forces watching Lin Yao would absolutely not be able to make a move within the city.
Otherwise, Lin Yao would have been captured long ago.
If they wanted to make a move on Lin Yao, they would definitely lure him out of Fallen Immortal City; only then would it be convenient for them to act.
"Judging by the direction he is moving, he should be leaving the city." Mysterious Ink responded after a glance.
"Go! Follow him!"
Ye Feiyan did not waste a single word, her beautiful phoenix eyes, filled with endless coldness and chilling killing intent, gazing far away toward the stream of light that had already disappeared into the horizon.
"I want to see who exactly is playing tricks in the dark."
"Perhaps we can find a way to leave the East Sea Region and learn about the wider world." She said slowly.
She was naturally aware of the Spiritual Qi situation in the East Sea Region.
To break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm, leaving the East Sea Region was inevitable.
However, even as a Reborn Empress, she did not know how to leave the East Sea Region.
The best way was to ask someone from Outside the Eastern Sea.
Since the person watching Lin Yao could recognize Mysterious Ink's origins through the Profound Black Domain, they must have come from Outside the Eastern Sea.
If she could capture them, she would have a way to force information out of them about the world Outside the Eastern Sea, thereby finding a way to leave the East Sea Region.
Mysterious Ink nodded gently upon hearing this.
Subsequently.
The human and the dragon silently merged into the Void Realm, trailing far behind that stream of light, which was filled with urgency and joy.
