Peng Lie lowered his head further. He was both ashamed and angry being called an idiot by Peng Huang, but he didn't dare to refute.
Meanwhile, Peng Zheng calmly took a sip of tea with a thoughtful expression. A moment later, he said. "You don't have to be angry, father. What's done is done. There's no point in lingering on this mistake further. We should think of a solution now."
Peng Huang panted a few times before completely calming down. He sat back on the chair and asked. "Do you have any idea? We have just startled Yun Lintian. If he's the real culprit, it will be difficult to take action on him again."
Peng Zheng glanced at Peng Lie and said. "Third Elder, you can go back to take care of your wound first."
Peng Lie nodded his head and left the hall right away without any complaint.
As Peng Lie went away, Peng Zheng thought for a moment and said further. "We should stop paying attention to him for the time being. Isn't grandpa saying they will send someone over soon? We can afford to wait until the person comes. Anyhow, this Yun Lintian is already on the killing list. He will be gotten rid of sooner or later, anyway."
"You're right." Peng Huang nodded his head slowly and leaned back against his chair, appearing as if thinking of something.

"Ah, my tummy is about to burst soon." In the private box, Nantian Fengyu rubbed her tummy grimacingly. Her eyes darted to the empty dishes on the table as she blamed the food for being too delicious.
"Are we going back tonight? I want to start building my residence soon." Yun Lintian calmly sipped a tea while stroking Linlin's fur. He had arranged everything he needed here already. There was no point in staying here further.
"Mhm! Let's go!" Nantian Fengyu's eyes lit up when she heard this. She suddenly became eager to see her new residence.
Without further ado, Nantian Fengyu hurriedly stood up and quickly pulled Yun Lintian out of the restaurant, heading straight to the academy.
Along the way, Yun Lintian could hear various discussions from the crowd, and the hot topic was naturally the burning incident. Most of them believed it was a battle between the four clans and started to worry whether they should leave the divine city to avoid the possible calamity for the time being.
Yun Lintian had planned everything ahead since he started rescuing the children. According to his plan, he would immediately attack the Peng clan after returning from the Frozen Moon Mythical Realm. At that time, he would have enough strength to confront them. Therefore, all the Cloud Shadow members were instructed to lay low and focus on practicing during this period.
It was already night when Yun Lintian and Nantian Fengyu arrived at the Moonlight Peak. As they climbed the mountain, Yun Lintian suddenly perceived abnormal energy began to rise along with the swaying bamboos.
Linlin raised her neck from Yun Lintian's embrace and looked around curiously. "This is Moon Energy."
"Moon Energy?" Yun Lintian's brows raised as he opened Eyes of Heaven to look around. The purple dots on the top of the bamboos were shining as though they were greedily absorbing something.
"This is a common phenomenon here. You will get used to it later." Nantian Fengyu raised her head to look at the bright moon in the sky and said softly.
"Common phenomenon?" Yun Lintian muttered and followed Nantian Fengyu's gaze into the sky.
At this moment, purple moonlight gradually cascaded down like a transparent curtain, blanketing the entire Moonlight Peak. The bamboos began to sway faster, causing a rustling sound to fill the area.
Under the Eyes of Heaven, Yun Lintian saw the purple moonlight was absorbed by all the bamboos before it was transported along the bamboo's trunk before spreading into the ground. In the next moment, the ground under the bamboos had slowly turned into purple color, brimming with the Moon Energy.
As time passed by, the purple-colored pools on the ground had spread out until they wholly covered every single piece of land, sending the Moonlight Peak to illuminate with bright purple light. This scenery was so magical and beautiful to the point Yun Lintian forgot to breathe.
"Every night, our Moonlight Peak will become like this. The Moon Essence in this place will greatly help us in practice." Nantian Fengyu said. She turned to Yun Lintian and continued. "Too bad you are a man. The Moon Essence has no effect on you."
"It's exclusive to females?" Yun Lintian seemed to understand something. According to common knowledge, the Moon represented the Yin energy while the Sun represented the Yang energy. Therefore, it was understandable why this Moon Energy had no effect on a man.
Suddenly, Yun Lintian thought of Lin Xinyao's Divine Moon Profound Vein. To his knowledge, the Divine Moon clan consisted of both males and females. It must be because of the existence of the Divine Moon Profound Vein that allows the male clansmen to absorb the Moon Energy… What about his Beyond Heaven Profound Vein, then?
Thinking of this, Yun Lintian silently opened his Profound Entrances and drew the Moon Energy into his body according to the Primordial Beyond Heaven Scripture's method.
Woosh—
All of a sudden, the surrounding Moon Energy had turned into a small cyclone around Yun Lintian's body, letting Yun Lintian crazily absorb it.
Nantian Fengyu's mouth was agape in shock. Her eyes were full of incredulity as he witnessed Yun Lintian absorb the Moon Energy… My junior brother is a woman!? I have a junior sister all along!?
Yun Lintian didn't know that he had become a woman in his fifth sister's eyes already. Currently, his mind was fully occupied by the wonderful feeling. He could clearly feel his body become lighter, and his strength began to soar.
No! I can't break through now! Yun Lintian regained his composure and stopped the absorption directly. He still needed to suppress his strength at the Origin Profound Realm in order to enter the Frozen Moon Mythical Realm.
"J-junior sister?" Nantian Fengyu called out uncertainly.
"Hmm?" Yun Lintian looked at Nantian Fengyu in puzzlement. Who did she call a junior sister?
"Hmph! It turns out you are a junior sister. You dare to deceive your fifth sister for all this time? Let's see how I beat you up." Nantian Fengyu crossed her arms and said in dissatisfaction.
Yun Lintian: "???"
