Chapter 155: Discussing Cooperation

For Ling Yuexian, the appearance of the Pure Heaven Crystal was also a hair-raising matter.

This had to be traced back to when Ling Yuexian was examining Ling Yi's body; at that time, she discovered two forces intertwined within Ling Yi, rather than the one Xiao Han had told her about.

Then, accompanied by the infusion of Ling Yuexian's Dou Qi, the white ball of light swallowed the black aura. At the same time, it suddenly took advantage of Ling Yuexian's lack of preparation to directly drain most of her Dou Qi.

Just as Ling Yuexian was shocked and terrified, thinking some accident had occurred, a transparent spirit body appeared before her.

Relying on Ling Yuexian's massive amount of Dou Qi, the Pure Heaven Crystal rapidly transformed from its original form into a human shape, and formed a special symbiotic state with the former.

And then it was the situation as it is now.

"Is what you said true? That group of people really wore black robes all over, with illusory bodies?" Ling Yuexian asked with a serious expression.

"That goes without saying," the Pure Heaven Crystal said unhappily. "If it weren't for those bastards, how could I have ended up in this state?"

She gritted her teeth in her heart, feeling bone-deep hatred for that group of guys who ambushed her.

"Guys from the Soul Clan?" Ling Yuexian felt fortunate in her heart, but there was more despair.

Clearly, the ones lurking in the dark and eyeing the Ling Clan with hostility were these ambitious guys from the Soul Clan.

However, for Ling Yuexian, what could she do even if she knew the opponent? Watching her death date approach step by step, she was helpless.

……

While Ling Yuexian was sorrowful, Xiao Han also walked into this broken seal with a grave expression.

His whole body was wrapped tightly in thick Cold Ice Dou Qi. But what exceeded Xiao Han's expectations was that the interior of the seal, which he thought would be surging with black aura, was empty. It was extremely bizarre!

"Damn it, what is going on?" Xiao Han threw an angry punch at the space around him, directly creating a huge, pitch-black crack.

Clearly, this time Xiao Han had once again returned empty-handed.

"Can I call this 'unintentionally planting a willow that grows into shade'?" Xiao Han shook his head in self-mockery. Coming to the Wanyun Mountain Range this time, he hadn't tracked down the Evil Qi, but instead had reached a cooperative relationship with an Ancient Race.

Life is unpredictable!

"Forget it, let's continue to change to the next place!" Xiao Han had long been prepared for a long-term struggle, so after a brief moment of disappointment, he cheered himself up again.

With a casual swipe, a space crack appeared before Xiao Han, and the latter stepped into it cleanly and decisively.

……

Two months later, Yi Huang looked foolishly at the woman in front of her—Lingyi—who had wave patterns on her forehead, wore a long yellow dress, and had ribbons wrapped around her hands.

Clearly, she had not yet recovered from the shock just now.

"Are you a member of the Ling Clan?" Yi Huang re-confirmed the information.

"Yes." Lingyi was also very patient; there was no help for it, the woman's man was an Eight-Star Dou Sheng, and if Yi Huang were angered, she wasn't afraid of a "pillow talk" blowing down and causing the cooperation between the two sides to fall through.

After all, it was their Ling Clan that was begging for help now!

"Do you mean that the Ling Clan wishes to cooperate with my Langya Pavilion?" This was the point Yi Huang found hardest to accept.

What the hell?

Have the Ancient Races become so approachable now? They could actually look favorably upon their Langya Pavilion?

"Rest assured, Vice Pavilion Master Yi. The cooperation between us and your esteemed pavilion was personally finalized by our Clan Leader and your pavilion's Ice Saint."

"If Vice Pavilion Master Yi has any doubts, you can personally confirm it with the Ice Saint." Seeing Yi Huang's hesitation, Lingyi took the initiative to explain.

After all, even she, without knowing the true situation, would not have believed such a thing, which could be called a fantasy.

By putting herself in her shoes, Yi Huang's concerns were understandable.

And Yi Huang did indeed do just that; one could not blame her for lacking insight, it was just that this scene was truly too horrifying.

A quarter of an hour later, Xiao Han sent a message.

"Everything is as usual!" The implication was naturally that the cooperation with the Ling Clan was a real existence, and she should do what she needed to do.

"Hoo~"

Yi Huang suddenly took a deep breath, and her heart relaxed quite a bit; that capable, strong-woman-like aura appeared on her again.

It was just an Ancient Race; her husband was much more powerful than them, and with such a strong backing, her confidence was naturally sufficient.

She immediately smiled and said gently to Lingyi: "Guest from the Ling Clan, I am very sorry for my rude behavior just now. Please forgive me, honored guest."

For some reason, Lingyi only felt that the other party's aura had changed a lot, as if she had instantly transformed from a girl-next-door into a queen who commanded the entire scene.

Her tone could not help but lower again: "Vice Pavilion Master Yi is overthinking it; you were just following standard procedure."

"So... is our cooperation..." Before Lingyi could finish, Yi Huang interrupted magnanimously: "Regarding the cooperation, my Langya Pavilion is honored. Let us sit down and talk properly."

At the same time, in a place Lingyi did not notice, Yi Huang's fingers moved subtly.

"That guy didn't explain the specific conditions of both sides to me in detail. I wonder if Fairy Lingyi can clear up my confusion?" As soon as she sat down, Yi Huang went straight to the point.

Although she had a rough draft in her heart, Yi Huang still wanted to hear the other party's version. If this person thought she was so easy to fool, the cooperation could naturally be delayed.

Their Langya Pavilion did not need so-called cooperation, nor did they need to cling to the high branches of an Ancient Race.

But fortunately, Lingyi had no intention of raising the price halfway; perhaps the reason Ling Yuexian sent her was that Lingyi was relatively honest.

She just repeated the conditions that Xiao Han and Ling Yuexian had discussed word for word.

Of course, Lingyi was not foolish enough to reveal all the secrets of that conversation.

For example, the inside story of sending Ling Clan members to join the Langya Pavilion was known only to four people, including Xiao Han.

"How many juniors will the Ling Clan send to join my Langya Pavilion?" Yi Huang asked.

"Five! They are all juniors of our clan who are under thirty years old and are Dou Zuns." Lingyi answered urgently.

Originally, the Clan Leader wanted to send ten, but the Ice Saint firmly opposed it.

"Ten is truly too terrifying a number; it would be very easy to see the clues," Xiao Han had refused.

Although they were only Dou Zun juniors and could not catch the eyes of the Ancient Races, if the number were too large, it would still attract attention.

With the arrogance of the Ancient Races, they would prefer to keep all their disciples to be cultivated at home; these five could already be considered as looking highly upon the Langya Pavilion.

Turning the gaze back to the present.

"Truly worthy of being an Ancient Race!" Yi Huang silently envied in her heart.

A Dou Zun under the age of thirty, even if their rank is not high, is still a quite terrifying number. Yet the other party brought them out so nonchalantly.

Yi Huang's understanding of the Dou Di Bloodline became more complete in her heart. At the same time, her wariness toward the Soul Clan grew even deeper.

If even a fallen Ling Clan is this terrifying, then what of the Soul Clan, which is hidden so deeply?

Looking at their Langya Pavilion, only a few people like Xiao Wu have decent talent, even capable of rivaling the most outstanding younger generation of the Ancient Race.

But the other Disciples can only be called excellent; their core strength is far behind.

Afterward, the two discussed a series of details; with Xiao Han having already established the broad framework, Yi Huang only had to make minor adjustments. It only took two or three days to finish the consultation.
