Chapter 313: Each Has Their Own Plans

"What news?"

Anything that makes Sword Immortal Xia Zi treat it with caution must be a major matter.

It is highly likely not a good thing.

"Handle the numerous trivial matters first; I'll speak with you later. When the time comes, bring the two seniors with you," Xia Zi replied.

The two seniors naturally refer to Tu Shan Jiao Jiao and Mo Sangyu.

"Alright."

Lin Chuan didn't keep pressing the question.

After seeing Xia Zi off and returning to the interior of the Purple Star Emperor Sect, Lin Chuan divided the acquired resources into six portions, giving one each to Jiaojiao Niangzi, Sangyu, Xiao Qingmei, and Lü Ya.

He kept one for himself.

The remaining portion was reserved for Ye Xue, who was still in seclusion.

His daughter Qing Fan, like Sword Immortal Xia Zi, does not require many low‑level resources; moreover, the Blood-Painted Star Domain party slaughtered the Unmindful Ghost, and Qing Fan also reaped abundant gains.

"Father, I'm waiting for you at the Dragon Clan Ancestral Land."

Lin Qingfan did not meet with the women.

In her mind, mother Ye Xue should be her father's sole wife; now there are four concubines, which she cannot accept at once.

But she kept silent about her parents' affairs.

She knows nothing of the reasons behind them.

As long as her mother can accept it, she, as a daughter, naturally will not interfere.

"A Chuan, how was the journey to the Ancient Ruins? Did you obtain the Ascension Immortal inheritance?" Xiao Qingmei and Yun Zhi Yi asked.

"I suppose we did obtain it."

Lin Chuan didn't know what to say.

To claim that he is the 'great existence' from ancient times that people have passed down through generations?

He was unwilling.

That would be a tragic ending.

All the love ties died for him, which enabled him to reach the pinnacle.

"Husband, do you think the Black Mist problem has truly been resolved?" Mo Sangyu asked.

"I'm afraid not."

Lin Chuan shook his head.

Even though the Wangxian great beings jointly established patrol messengers to search for any hidden traces of Black Mist between heaven and earth.

But that is like fishing a needle in the ocean; the chance of success is slim.

"Whether the Black Mist has already slipped in silently or not, we must be prepared; this cultivation resource arrived just in time."

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao laughed, "With memories of a past life and so much cultivation resource, we can restore our strength early."

"The time left for us is short; we hope to regain the pinnacle soon."

After this battle, Lin Chuan no longer dared to relax.

Fearing that Black Mist might appear at any moment and deliver a crushing blow.

"A Chuan, what are your plans next?" Yun Zhi Yi asked.

"I intend to return to Qingyun Prefecture; Rumeng's matter is still unresolved, and I've found a method that might work for Rumeng."

Lin Chuan kept Xiao Rumeng in his thoughts.

Now Qing Fan has awakened and entered the Wangxian Realm, so he need not worry.

The great son Yue Ming's talent may be somewhat lacking, or perhaps not yet uncovered, but the situation is not complicated; no need to worry too much.

"If I go back I can't help much, so I won't return."

Yun Zhi Yi said, "I plan to follow the Cloud Emperor to the Cloud Kingdom, leveraging its momentum to cultivate the Dao of Fortune; this is my best path."

"Alright."

Lin Chuan had something he hadn't told Xiao Qingmei.

In that ancient era, Yun Zhi Yi rose in the Cloud Kingdom, becoming a side‑by‑side king of the Cloud Kingdom,

When the Cloud Emperor of that time fell in battle, beset by internal and external troubles, it was Yun Zhi Yi's existence that prevented the Cloud Kingdom's legacy from breaking.

For Xiao Qingmei, cultivating in the Cloud Kingdom truly was the best way out.

"I plan to go to Qingqiu."

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao also formed a plan in her heart.

First, Qingqiu hosts Emperor Lord Bai Zhou, so there is no need to fear retaliation from Bi Luo Yan, Golden Spirit Mountain, and other forces.

Second, Qingqiu is suitable for fox clan cultivation; it is a blessed land for the Nine‑Tailed Fox Clan, and the Qingqiu Fox Clan techniques can complement her Divine Power, perhaps elevating her further.

She also promised the Qingqiu Emperor to mediate the relationship between the Qingqiu lineage and the Tushan lineage.

"Hmm."

Lin Chuan did not object, "If Qingqiu and Tushan reconcile soon, perhaps the fox clan will become stronger, which is a good thing."

Why did Tushan nearly face extinction in that ancient battle?

Lin Chuan found the answer in his memory.

It was because Tu Shan Jiao Jiao led the Tushan lineage to confront the Shadow Life army, fell into an ambush, and did not receive timely aid from Qingqiu, that the disastrous result occurred.

The Tushan lineage cannot forgive the Qingqiu lineage, and there is indeed a reason.

As for why they still haven't reconciled up to now,

The reason is simple.

Initially the Qingqiu lineage felt remorse, but as the older generation passed away, the later Qingqiu relied on its great power and refused to acknowledge past history.

How could Tushan's lineage not harbor hatred?

By today, it should be restored.

Beginning with Jiaojiao Niangzi and ending with her, that is the best Karma.

"I…"

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao and Yun Zhi Yi both have clear destinations, but Mo Sangyu, who was the most decisive before, hesitated.

"Where should I go?"

After a brief bewilderment, she found the answer.

Now that a demonic cultivation aspirant has fallen in the Blood-Painted Star Domain, it is a perfect opportunity; she intends to go there to seize the chance.

In Lin Chuan's previous life, the Heavenly Demon Old Ancestor could rise in the Blood-Painted Star Domain, and she can too—much faster!

"I'm going to the Blood-Painted Star Domain."

Mo Sangyu voiced her thoughts.

"This…"

Lin Chuan hesitated.

In the memory of that ancient life, Sangyu cultivated the same demonic path and was a famous great demon of that era.

Sangyu did many controversial things, but her nature is that way—she does as she pleases, even opposing numerous super powers for Lin Chuan.

Cultivating the demonic path is destined to clash with the vast majority of cultivators.

Many of her deeds will never be understood by the world.

Lin Chuan wanted to dissuade, but after thinking, he said nothing; after all, he himself has walked that road.

How could he dissuade Sangyu?

This is the path Sangyu is destined to walk.

At this point, Jiaojiao, Sangyu, and Xiao Qingmei have all expressed themselves; the three women's gazes all turned toward Lü Ya.

After years of cultivation, with abundant resources and the highest‑level guidance, Lü Ya barely reached the Fourth Realm of the Mortal Dust Eight Realms.

It is truly… speechless.

Tu Shan Jiao Jiao, Mo Sangyu, and Yun Zhi Yi all chose to abandon teaching, letting Lü Ya be happy.

After all, Lü Ya's cultivation progress will have no impact on the final decisive battle.

"I… I…"

Lü Ya laughed inwardly, "I'll go back to Qingyun Prefecture with the young master."

She had nowhere to go.

She only follows one principle—where the young master is, I am there!

"Fine, you come back with me."

Lin Chuan also didn't feel comfortable letting Lü Ya go elsewhere.

What Lü Ya was thinking at that moment was that none of the many cultivation paths suited her; perhaps the best fit was dual cultivation with the young master!

I must seize this opportunity!

Hehehe!
