Chapter 21 - Poison Valley Threat

n

n

nYang Gouming and Yang Chen were also curious about Yun Lintian as well. Especially Yang Gouming, who had a higher understanding of the iron rule of the Misty Cloud Sect. He was extremely confused why had Yun Lintian appeared here along with Yun Huanxin and the rest.

nYun Lintian laughed slightly:

"You can call my name directly. I don't like being called a Senior. After all, we are all around the same age… As for your question, my answer is yes. I am indeed a member of the Misty Cloud Sect.

"

nWhen Yun Lintian had finished his sentence, Yun Huanxin added,

"He is our Sect Master's son.

"

nYang Gouming and his children looked at each other in shock. Yang Mengli and Yang Chen might not know much about Yun Qianxue, but how could Yang Gouming didn't know about her? 40 years ago, Yun Qianxue was regarded as the number one beauty throughout the entire Heavenly Fortune Nation. She was the dream lover of countless men. However, her attitude toward them was simple. She loathed all of them and didn't hesitate to kill whoever trying to approach her. Therefore, how could she possibly have a child?

nAlthough Yang Gouming was extremely curious, he didn't inquire about this matter further. He turned to Yun Huanxin and said,

"Congratulations to your sect for gaining such a genius doctor.

"

n

"Thank you.

" Yun Huanxin surprisingly replied politely with a proud expression on her delicate face.

nYun Lintian waved his hand,

"Oh please, Senior. Stop it already. If Senior continued to praise me, I might be starting to fly now.

" His words made everyone laughed. He said further,

"Right, congratulations to both of you for reaching the tenth level in such a short time.

"

nYang Mengli and Yang Chen smiled at each other. Yang Chen said,

"It's all because of you, Senior… Not right, I will call you Brother Yun from now on. You can also call me by my name directly.

"

nYun Lintian nodded his head slightly:

"Good. I'll call you Brother Yang and Sister Yang from now on.

"

nSeeing their friendly interaction, Yang Gouming smiled heartily. To be able to establish a connection with such a talented doctor like Yun Lintian, undoubtedly, they had gained a massive benefit from it.

nAt this moment, Yun Lintian suddenly thought of something. He asked,

"Senior, is your incident related to the Luo clan? If it's inconvenient, Senior don't have to tell me about it.

" Although Yun Lintian hadn't interested in the disputes between them, he just wanted to confirm something in his mind.

nYang Gouming smiled faintly,

"What senior? Just call me Uncle Yang… That's right. Luo clan is the one behind all of this. Several years ago, they secretly invited a poison doctor from the Poison Valley and they started to use poisons on other clans. I just discovered about this recently.

"

n

"Poison Valley?

" Yun Huanxin immediately frowned upon hearing this name.

nYang Gouming nodded with a heavy expression:

"Yes. That poison doctor is indeed coming from the Poison Valley. The problem is that Qi Qianxing is aware of this matter, but he chose to ignore it.

"

n

"No wonder. Qi Qianxing didn't hesitate to join the fray.

" Yun Huanxin muttered to herself. She finally understood in and out of this matter.

n

"Hmm? What happened?

" Yang Gouming heard about it and asked in confusion. He had recovered a month ago and was busy dealing with the clan's internal affairs. Hence, he didn't know much about the outside situation. Especially about the Misty Cloud Sect.

nYun Lintian took this chance to explain,

"Uncle Yang is probably too busy in the past month and missed this piece of information… Currently, our sect has been under threat. Scared Flame Sect has joined with Sword Profound Sect and Qi royal clan. They are planning to kill us off.

"

n

"What!?

" Yang Gouming exclaimed in shock. For Sacred Flame Sect, he was aware of the grudge between them, but he never expected Sword Profound Sect and even Qi royal clan would join in too.

nYun Huanxin added,

"It's not only them. If I guessed correctly, there should be Luo clan and Chen clan too.

"

nYang Gouming's expression turned serious:

"Why would they decide to do this?

"

nYun Lintian shrugged his shoulders without giving any explanation. Was there any need for an explanation? They just wanted to get rid of the Misty Cloud Sect for benefits. Simple as that.

n

"Father…

" Yang Chen wanted to say something. He was an upright person. Even though he knew that involving with this matter was equal to creating an archenemy with Qi royal clan, he still wanted his father to help Yun Lintian.

nMeanwhile, Yang Mengli didn't say anything and only looked at her father calmly. She was a businesswoman and would weigh between pros and cons before deciding. She had analyzed everything calmly. With the strength of the Yang clan alone, it was impossible to fight with all of them. Hence, she didn't express her opinion and leave everything to her father.

nYang Gouming's mind spun rapidly. He spoke after a while:

"Since they are deciding to be your enemy. All of you here are in danger. They won't let this chance to capture all of you go easily.

" He paused for a second and said further,

"If it was me alone, I will definitely go all out and take part in this matter. However, I still have my clansmen on my shoulders. I won't be able to help you much on this matter. Sorry.

"

nYun Lintian wasn't surprised by Yang Gouming's decision and he didn't think Yang Gouming was ungrateful. It was normal to think of yourself and your family before helping others. On the contrary, he even praised Yang Gouming for speaking in a straightforward manner instead of being halfhearted.

nYun Lintian smiled:

"Uncle Yang doesn't have to feel sorry for us. I understand your decision. I told you about this isn't because I need your help, but rather I want you to be aware of this matter. I think you should understand what I want to say.

"

nYang Gouming nodded his head. Even a fool could see a storm was about to come and his Yang clan was destined to be swept by this storm as well. He said solemnly,

"Although I can't help the Misty Cloud Sect getting out of this calamity, I can guarantee that all of you will be able to get out of here safely.

"

nYun Lintian cupped his fists:

"Thank you, Uncle Yang. But you shouldn't cross the board too far. Since we dare to come here, we naturally have a way to get out of this situation. You don't have to worry.

"

n

"Fine.

" Yang Gouming replied.

nYang Cheng was extremely disappointed in his father's decision, but he also understood the situation. At this moment, he was in a dilemma. His strength wasn't that great to the point he could turn the tide by himself, but he couldn't just sit and watch his benefactor facing a problem.

nJust as Yang Chen was about to say something, he felt a hand on his shoulder. He tilted his head and see Yang Mengli shook her head, preventing him from saying. He clenched his fists and let out a helpless sigh in the end.

n

"We will take our leave first.

" Since there was nothing to say further, Yang Gouming immediately took his children and left the place.

n

"Alright.

" Yun Lintian responded. He turned to Yun Huanxin and asked,

"Third Aunt, what is Poison Valley?

"

nYun Huanxin, who was pondering something all this time, answered,

"Poison Valley is a notorious group of people with an unclear origin. Their members are proficient in poison. In the past, they were wreaking havoc throughout the entire Northern Continent by using innocent lives to do their poison experiment. Even ordinary people are no exception as well. Until thirty years ago, the Frozen Moon Palace sent out a decree to get rid of them, and they had disappeared afterward. Who would have thought they still exist.

"

nYun Lintian and other senior sisters' expressions turned grave after listening to this. This Poison Valley was too cruel. In order to experiment with their poison art, they didn't even let ordinary people go. Was there any use by testing poison on a weak mortal? They just wanted to kill, that's why.

nYun Lintian suddenly realized something. He quickly asked,

"Third Aunt, you mean…

"

nYun Huanxin slowly nodded her head,

"Our enemies are not just them, but Poison Valley as well.

"

nYun Lintian's face turned unsightly. Just the current enemies were already difficult to deal with, and now Poison Valley was added in. He didn't know how to help his sect survive this calamity anymore… Only if I have power. An unwilling thought appeared in his mind.

nBuzz—

nAll of a sudden, the silver necklace on his neck vibrated briefly and stopped in the next moment. Yun Lintian was startled and quickly grabbed it. To his disappointment, there was nothing happened further in the end.

n

"What happened?

" Yun Huanxin saw his strange action.

nYun Lintian let go of the necklace while shaking his head,

"Nothing… Third Aunt, let's send the news back first.

"

nYun Huanxin agreed and quickly took a long-range transmission jade out of her pocket.

"Beware of Poison Valley. Their member appears behind the Luo clan.

" She said.

nA moment later, the transmission jade vibrated slightly, indicating the other sides had successfully received the message.

n

"Third Aunt, you have to be careful after we are gone. I'll help you set up a formation around here.

" Yun Lintian gave her a warning out of worry. All he could do was to set a profound formation around here beforehand. At least, Yun Huanxin would be safer while Yun Lintian was gone into the mythical realm.

n

"Mhm.

" Yun Huanxin didn't refuse. They had around five days before the Blazing Sun Mythical Realm open.

n...

nAfter leaving the Misty Cloud Sect's camp, Yang Chen hesitated several times before he finally asked,

"Father…

" He couldn't finish his sentence as he was interrupted by Yang Gouming.

n

"I know what you wanted to say, but this matter is out of our hands. It's not just them. We are also in danger as well.

" Yang Gouming patiently said.

nYang Chen became silent. He was aware of the situation, but he just couldn't get rid of the uncomfortable in his heart. Without Yun Lintian's help, he would still be a useless cripple and Yang Gouming would still lie on the bed until now. Now his benefactor was in trouble. How could he simply ignore it?

nYang Gouming saw through his son's current mood, he said further,

"All we can do right now is providing support for them as much as we can. Remember, during the exploration, you have to do your best to help them.

"

nYang Chen took a deep breath and nodded,

"Understood, Father.

"
