It was clearly a decoy.

The second cave dwelling was a thousand feet deep, hidden in the folds of the earth’s veins, carefully protected by a barrier of immortal power set up by Wei Yanzi.

This was their true hiding place.

After all this was done, Wei Yanzi sat on a small stool that Li Ping’an had taken out, feeling a hint of wonderful…security in his Dao heart.

Curious, Wei Yanzi asked, “Ping’an, have you often been hunted down before?”

Chased!

Li Ping’an replied with a bitter smile, “I just cherish my life, all the preparations I made before leaving home have come in handy.”

“You escape as if you’ve done it many times before!”

Wei Yanzi chuckled, then remembered something and took out his spirit pet pouch from his sleeve while muttering “forgive me,” and placed the seriously injured female Immortal onto the carpet that Li Ping’an had laid out.

Her Immortal body had healed quite a bit;

Although still covered in blood, most of the horrific wounds she had before had begun to heal.

Li Ping’an observed the healing abilities of the Heavenly Immortal’s Dao body with great interest, admiration filled his eyes.

“Ping’an, you are the junior!”

Wei Yanzi frowned and said:

“Don’t stare at the senior inside our gates like that; it’s a bit disrespectful.”

Li Ping’an then remembered that this was a female Immortal and made a respectful bow with his hands.

“Huh?”

Wei Yanzi frowned as he took out a thin slice of jade from his sleeve, which trembled lightly before shattering.

The expression of this Elemental Immortal froze in an instant, his complexion also paled..

“The formation at that Daoist observatory has been broken…

many Immortals have swept over that place…

the presence of at least three or four Heavenly Immortals!”

Wei Yanzi swallowed hard, turned his head towards Li Ping’an, and said firmly:

“Ping’an, you must run!

They will definitely search everywhere for us next!

We can’t hide here for long!”

Li Ping’an, however, was quite calm and asked with a smile, “Why doesn’t the officer leave this senior behind and escape with me?”

“Abandoning a fellow sect member is unrighteous!”

Wei Yanzi sighed:

“Although I hold little weight in the sect, and I am not acquainted with this Immortal from Caiyun Peak, abandoning a fellow sect member like this is something I absolutely cannot do!”

Li Ping’an then asked, “Then why do you urge me to leave?”

Wei Yanzi paused.

Li Ping’an said earnestly, “Officer, on the contrary, think about this, these Immortals have already stormed into the Immortal Dynasty; they can probe thousands of miles with their divine senses, and right now, they are surely searching everywhere to interrogate the disciples of Wanyun Sect stationed here.

How could I possibly escape?

If I were to escape now, how could my son and I ever stand proudly within the sect again in the future?”

“Sss—”

Wei Yanzi drew a breath of cool air:

“It does make sense that way.”

Li Ping’an smiled and said, “Have you forgotten, officer?

I also have this.”

He took out his Wanyun Sect Homing Token.

“If I wanted to leave, I could directly return to the mountain with this token, with no formation to obstruct me.

“I have carefully calculated that Senior Qing Su was using a Homing Token inside the ancient ruins, which is why she was obstructed by the formation.

“I am actually unimpeded right now.”

“That’s true, I almost forgot that you have one of these as well.

I’m relieved now,”

Weiyangzi finally breathed a sigh of relief and said with a grin,

“You’re still young, with a great life ahead that you haven’t yet enjoyed.

I am content having broken through to the Primary Immortal stage without any regrets.”

“So, what should we do next?”

Li Ping’an said solemnly, “The immortal power of our steward is what we’ll rely on.

Besides, I have a way to give us an additional boost of strength.”

“What is it?”

Li Ping’an took out the jade thumb ring his father had first given him, extracted the brocade box inside, and revealed the Elixir Pill bestowed by his Golden Immortal ancestor.

The dense fragrance of the pill mixed with a faintly bitter Dao charm circulated back and forth in the narrow cave dwelling.

Weiyangzi’s eyes went wide.

A Golden Immortal’s great medicine!

A life-preserving Immortal Pill refined by a Golden Immortal!

With just a slight sense of the pill’s Dao charm, Weiyangzi instantly recognized the preciousness of such a pill.

“Ping’an, this is a Golden Immortal’s great medicine…”

“I have several kinds of Immortal Pills on me that can save the lives of Foundation Establishment Qi Cultivators.”

Li Ping’an squatted next to the female Immortal and sighed softly,

“Such a pill should be used in the True Immortal Realm to avoid waste.”

“I have made up my mind.

There’s no need for further words, steward.

If my ancestor were here, he would not stop me either.”

Having said that, he brought the pill to the female Immortal’s lips and gently pressed.

The cave dwelling became illuminated with a faint immortal light.

…

Dang——Dang——

The sudden ringing of the bell from Wanyun Sect’s main peak startled all the creatures of the various peaks.

Herds of cranes circled over the forests, figures flew out from their places of cultivation, and congregated towards the main peak.

Atop Caiyun Peak.

“Ningning!”

Zhenxu, now dressed in a grey Daoist robe and holding the Immortal Treasure Fanyun Fan that she had refined for many years, said with a solemn face,

“A few days ago, an ancient relic emerged in the East Sea.

Your Uncle-Master Qing Su won the biggest opportunity but was attacked and is now severely injured and missing.”

“The Sect Leader is furious and is currently summoning all the immortals of our sect to go out and assist.”

“You continue your cultivation peacefully in the mountains, while I shall see who dares to bully our Wanyun Sect!”

“Master!” Ningning Mu was full of concern.

“Please take care of yourself!”

“Don’t worry!”

Zhenxu sighed and murmured,

“It’s common for disputes to arise over ancient relics and treasures.

This time we’ve gained a major advantage, and it’s natural for the immortals from other sects to feel dissatisfied.

As long as we show our strength, these people will naturally back down.”

Ningning Mu then relaxed.

Seeing her master’s attitude just now, it was as if she was ready to fight to the death.

“I’m off first, and you cultivate in peace.”

Zhenxu said with worry,

“Your Uncle-Master Qing Su cultivates the Art of the Pure Heart and doesn’t talk much.”

“Don’t be fooled by her chilly, haughty appearance.

I entered the sect around the same time as her, and I know it crystal clear, she simply doesn’t know how to converse with others.”
