Chapter 1262: Information on Jinlong Mountain

"Yes, Second Young Lady, he is Li Luo."

Mu Yao's gaze fixed on Li Luo's figure from afar, his eyes somewhat dark and hostile. Previously in the Spiritual Xiang Grotto-heaven, he had been thwarted by Li Luo and failed to complete his mission, which had needlessly offended Lv Qing'er. Afterwards, the matter had caused quite a stir within the Outer Shenzhou headquarters of the Jinlong Treasure House, and even his grandfather had been implicated.

Fortunately, they had thrown in their lot with another faction within Jinlong Mountain, whose protection ensured his grandfather was not transferred away. However, the impact of this incident still had no small effect on their branch.

"He doesn't look bad, no wonder he left my little sister unable to forget him." The woman, whose skin was like white frost, said with a faint smile.

"From the latest intelligence, Li Luo has now reached the Da Tian Xiang Jing, his Tian Xiang Diagram already exceeding eight thousand zhang. Moreover, he possesses the Three Palaces and Six Xiangs: Water-Light Xiang, Wood-Earth Xiang, and Dragon-Lei Xiang. Among them, the Water-Light Xiang may have reached Up to Ninth Rank, the Wood-Earth Xiang is Eighth Rank, and the Dragon-Lei Xiang is the weakest at only Seventh Rank. However, he has some method that can briefly elevate the Dragon-Lei Xiang to Ninth Rank. I suspect this must be the 'Dragon Seed True Pill' of the Li Li Tianwang lineage." Mu Yao skillfully recited all of Li Luo's intelligence.

"It seems you pay him a great deal of attention." The woman said with a teasing smile.

Mu Yao was silent for a moment. In the Spiritual Xiang Grotto-heaven, he had suffered no small loss at Li Luo's hands, so naturally he bore him some grudge. Yet the other's cultivation speed was truly astonishing. When they first met, he had clearly been stronger, and the other's ability to make him suffer a loss had been due to external forces. But now, although he had also advanced into the Da Tian Xiang Jing, the foundation of his Tian Xiang Diagram had been surpassed by Li Luo.

Moreover, according to the latest intelligence, Li Luo had actually relied on his Da Tian Xiang Jing strength to directly contend with a commander of the Dragon Blood Guard whose strength had reached the Upper First Rank Marquis.

Such a record was absolutely enough to look down upon his peers.

"Previously when my little sister came, it was the Eldest Sister's side that sent word, telling you all to obstruct her, wasn't it?" The woman suddenly asked.

Mu Yao gave an awkward laugh, not daring to say much in front of this person. Within Jinlong Mountain, there were the Three Surnames and Seven Peaks, which formed the most core circle of power within the Jinlong Treasure House.

The Three Surnames were Lv, Zhang, and Qian.

Somewhat cliché surnames, yet they were the backing that allowed the Jinlong Treasure House to operate unimpeded across the Ten Great Shenzhous.

And Lv Qing'er, as well as the woman before them, Lv Shuanglu, both came from the Lv surname, one of the Three Surnames.

Currently within Jinlong Mountain, it was the Lv surname that held power, so this was the moment when their authority and strength were at their most flourishing.

Mu Yao's grandfather was backed by the faction of the Eldest Sister that this Young Lady Lv Shuanglu had just mentioned.

Seeing Mu Yao's awkward smile, Lv Shuanglu did not press further, merely saying with a smiling face: "My Qing'er little sister is now quite something. When she first returned, everyone assumed she was just a pampered young lady spoiled by being raised in the Outer Shenzhou, but everyone underestimated her. In less than a year, she has already established a connection with the 'Holy Ice Seed,' and the degree of resonance far surpasses anyone before her."

"There are even rumors within the clan that perhaps our Lv family's 'Holy Ice Seed' will evolve into a Primal Seed in her hands."

A look of shock surfaced in Mu Yao's eyes. Such classified information was not something a person like him, far removed from Jinlong Mountain, could have known.

That Lv Qing'er had actually reached this step?

But she had clearly returned from the Outer Shenzhou, so how could she compare to those prodigies in Jinlong Mountain who had consumed countless top-tier resources?

Lv Shuanglu said with a faint smile: "I heard this was the doing of my Fifth Uncle. When Lv Qing'er was born, he used Yi Mi Fa to suppress her innate talent, waiting for the day when this seed could bloom and bear fruit. So over these years, he has almost never brought Lv Qing'er back to Jinlong Mountain, instead letting her mother take her to grow up in that remote Outer Shenzhou."

"Such a method is somewhat too inconceivable!" Mu Yao exclaimed in horror.

If Lv Qing'er's current resonance with the Holy Ice Seed was due to this kind of Mi Fa, then it seemed far too terrifying.

Lv Shuanglu paused as well, then said calmly: "Perhaps there was also the Old Ancestor's hand in this."

Mu Yao's eyes were filled with utter horror. Of course he knew who the Old Ancestor in Lv Shuanglu's mouth was. Within the entire Jinlong Mountain, besides that Lv Li Tianwang, who else could it be?

"Why does the Second Young Lady tell me all this?" Mu Yao asked hoarsely.

Lv Shuanglu smiled and said: "I just want you to pass this information along to your grandfather. Some matters should not be lightly involved with, lest you end up beyond redemption."

Mu Yao was silent for several breaths, then said: "Many thanks to the Second Young Lady, I understand."

Lv Shuanglu neither agreed nor disagreed, her gaze turning toward Li Luo's figure in the distance, and she said with great interest: "It seems my Qing'er little sister has taken a liking to this Li Luo."

"Li Luo may already have a fiancée, the girl with the Ten-Pillar Golden Platform." Mu Yao said.

Only then did Lv Shuanglu show some surprise, then she smiled and said: "That really is a formidable rival. It seems Qing'er little sister is somewhat behind on all fronts, no wonder she has been somewhat melancholy on ordinary days."

Then her voice paused, and she said lightly: "However, I don't think much of them either."

"Zhang Cuicheng is a better match for Qing'er little sister."

Mu Yao knew the Zhang Cuicheng she spoke of was precisely that top prodigy of the Zhang surname branch within Jinlong Mountain. At such a young age, he had already stepped into the Second Rank Marquis, and at the same time, he had cultivated two Nine-Pillar Golden Platforms, with extraordinary combat power. Previously, he had even used his Second Rank strength to directly defeat an old-school Third Rank Marquis. It was heard that the Zhang surname branch valued him greatly, attempting to have him forge a Ten-Pillar Golden Platform when he struck at the Third Rank Marquis!

Moreover, that Zhang Cuicheng had also come to the Boundary River Domain this time, though he had not come to Jin Shi Water Abyss on this occasion.

"If Zhang Cuicheng knew Li Luo was also here, he would probably regret not coming." Lv Shuanglu said with a light laugh.

Mu Yao's heart stirred, and he could not help but ask: "Young Master Zhang Cuicheng, does he like Young Lady Qing'er?"

Lv Shuanglu said with a beaming smile: "Yes, he fell for her after just a few meetings. He even wanted his elders to come to our peak to propose, but it seems he was politely refused by Qing'er little sister. Then, unwilling to give up, he investigated a bit and learned about Li Luo."

Mu Yao seemed to understand something, and said: "So the Second Young Lady and Young Master Zhang Cuicheng coming to the Boundary River Domain this time..."

Lv Shuanglu nodded slightly, and said with great interest: "He just wanted to come see what this Li Luo is actually capable of. Tsk, the competition between men is sometimes truly a bit inexplicable."

Mu Yao said: "Li Luo is only at the Da Tian Xiang Jing, far behind Young Master Zhang Cuicheng. After all, there is still some gap in years of cultivation between them."

"Who cares about them."

Lv Shuanglu shrugged indifferently.

And while they were chatting here, speaking of many secrets concerning Jinlong Mountain, in the sky above Jin Shi Water Abyss, the standoff between the Zhao Li Tianwang lineage and the Li Li Tianwang lineage was becoming increasingly tense.

Vast and mighty energy whistled through, shaking heaven and earth.

However, just as the atmosphere reached its most tense point, several figures suddenly broke through the air, and one after another Marquis Platforms were revealed. At the same time, a helpless, aged voice rang out.

"Everyone, Jin Shi Water Abyss has its own rules. Since you have come here, please abide by them. Although we scattered cultivators dare not contend with the Li Tianwang lineages, even a clay figure has its temper. If anyone wants to smash the pot and not let us eat, then we can only stake our all."

As this voice echoed outward, a surge of powerful Xiang force no weaker than Li Li Jinpan and Zhao Jiao's swept forth, directly tearing apart that atmosphere of swords being drawn and bows being strung.
