Chapter 196 - General Situation
Chapter 196 – General Situation
Yun Lintian's group appeared in a small cave that Yun Lintian opened three months ago. Yun Lintian immediately checked the surroundings and found the concealment formation was still working well.
"I didn't expect no one discover this place until now." Yun Lintian said while dismantling the conceal formation.
Yun Meilan guarded the entrance and observed the outside situation. Suddenly, she discovered a human figure around two hundred meters away.
"There's someone here. I'll go check it out." Yun Meilan said. Her figure turned blur and disappeared from the spot.
Yun Lintian paused his action and used Spiritual Sense to see the situation. In the next moment, a frown appeared on his face as he discovered the person's identity in the distance. "How did he appear here?" He muttered.
"You know that person?" Yun Qianxue asked as she also used her Spiritual Sense to check on that person.
Yun Lintian nodded his head. "This person is a coachman of my acquaintance." The person in the distance was no other than the coachman of Lan Shuiying. If he remembered correctly, his name was Tu Cao.
Yun Lintian quickly put the formation's remains away and shot straight toward Tu Cao with Linlin on his shoulder, followed by Yun Qianxue and Yun Lingwei.
At this moment, Tu Cao was entangled with a Spirit Profound Beast called Whirlwind Wolf. He swiftly brandished his long blade at the wolf's head and successfully cut it off.
When Tu Cao was about to relax, he suddenly discovered someone coming in his direction, causing him to make a battle stance.
"Brother Tu?" Yun Lintian stopped his track a few meters away from Tu Cao and said.
Tu Cao was confused for a moment until he recognized Yun Lintian. "Little Brother Ye?"
"It's really you, Brother Tu." Yun Lintian smiled and walked toward Tu Cao.
"I thought you left a long time ago. Why are you here?" Tu Cao relaxed his vigilance and asked with a smile.
"I've been practiced secludedly here. What about you, Brother Tu? Aren't you already leaving for the Profound Sky Divine City?" Yun Lintian took out a set of tables and chairs, then beckoned Tu Cao to sit.
Tu Cao did not stand ceremony and sat directly. "It's Young Miss. She suddenly wants to stay here for a few months before going there. I have nothing to do, so I come here to hunt some profound beasts." He took a sip of water and continued. "Also, since the Frozen Moon Palace has thoroughly cleaned the remnant of Poison Valley, traveling on the main road is safer now. There's no need to hurry."
Yun Lintian's brows raised in surprise. "Frozen Moon Palace has made a big move recently?"
Tu Cao was taken aback and then realized Yun Lintian must immerse in practice for all this time. He nodded his head and said. "Three months ago, Palace Master Han has exposed the Poison Valley's conspiracy to everyone in the Northern Continent. She then sent her people to hunt those who had conspired with Poison Valley down. Many royal clans among the nine nations were killed in the process. This incident has basically turned the continent upside down for a while."
Hearing this, Yun Lintian hurriedly asked. "Is there any news related to Heavenly Fortune Nation?"
"Heavenly Fortune Nation? Naturally. The Qi royal clan turned out to be a member of Poison Valley. However, I heard from Young Miss that Qi Qianxing and his ancestor have managed to escape. No one saw them since then." Tu Cao replied.
Yun Lintian's brows knitted together as he was displeased. He didn't expect Han Bingling to ruin his revenge arc just like that.
"Why are you asking this, Brother Ye? Aren't you come from the Sky Fall Nation?" Tu Cao asked curiously.
Yun Lintian regained his composure and replied. "It's nothing. I've suspected the Qi royal clan for a long time. It turned out to be like this."
Tu Cao nodded his head slowly and retook a sip of water. It was only at this moment; he noticed the small tiger on Yun Lintian's shoulder. "What kind of this profound beast? I have never seen such an exquisite profound beast before."
Hearing someone mentioned her, Linlin glanced at Tu Cao for a second and turned around, couldn't be bothered to care.
Yun Lintian chuckled and said. "This is a Snow Tiger I picked up."
"Snow Tiger? I see." Tu Cao was enlightened. Although he had never seen Snow Tiger before, he fully believed Linlin was one.
The two continued to chat for a while, and Yun Lintian learned a lot about the current general situation. For example, Han Bingling had issued a sumptuous reward for anyone who found a trace of Poison Valley, and she had also killed all the moles within her palace.
Yun Lintian had to admit he had underestimated her before as he thought she was indecisive and unnecessarily dragged things out. Who would have thought she suddenly became so decisive and swiftly took action in one fell swoop. It seemed he had to find time to talk with her later.
"Are you going back to Thunder City?" Tu Cao asked as he saw the sun was about to fade.
Yun Lintian shook his head. "I'll find a place to continue my practice."
"Fine." Tu Cao nodded. "Right, you know? We can't call it Thunder City anymore."
"Why is that?" Yun Lintian asked interestingly.
Tu Cao shrugged. "Who knows? All the thunders have gradually disappeared during these months. Now we can't even see a single lightning bolt here. It's not Thunder City anymore when there's no thunder."
Yun Lintian immediately understood the cause of this matter. Since he had taken the Thunder away, the lightning element around this area had naturally disappeared. He could only sigh and say sorry to Thunder City in his heart.
"Alright. It's time for me to leave now. Until we meet again." Tu Cao stood up and prepared to leave.
"Until we meet again, Brother Tu." Yun Lintian cupped his fists and watched Tu Cao disappeared from his line of sight.
Woosh!
Yun Qianxue, Yun Meilan, and Yun Lingwei suddenly appeared beside Yun Lintian, and Yun Qianxue said. "Can we go back? I want to see with my own eyes.." Her eyes were brimming with hatred.
