In Zhou Qingyu’s secret chamber, Zhou Qingyu, Lei Feifei, Lei Jin, and Yun Lintian sat around a tea table. The whole room was covered with powerful lightning isolating barrier and was on top of another isolating barrier that Zhou Qingyu personally arranged.
“Can you tell me what exactly happened?” Lei Feifei looked at Yun Lintian and asked. Everyone in this room knew this matter wasn’t simple, as Yun Lintian said.
Yun Lintian looked at everyone and smiled faintly. “Would you believe it if I tell you that he died at my hand?”
Lei Feifei, Lei Jin, and Zhou Qingyu glanced at each other and shook their heads in unison. They were aware of how scary the Scarlet Soul Emperor was. It was impossible for Yun Lintian to kill him.
“When I brought everyone out, I found a chance to activate the formation and successfully suppressed him. I seized that chance to kill him with the help of Linlin.” Yun Lintian explained briefly while stroking Linlin’s soft fur.
Yun Lintian’s explanation might sound unbelievable, but they couldn’t come up with other reasons.
Lei Jin looked at Linlin on Yun Lintian’s lap with a respectful attitude. The moment he knew Linlin’s true identity, it made him restless for a long time. He had never thought he could meet the legendary mythical beast, White Tiger, this close one day.
Meanwhile, Lei Feifei and Zhou Qingyu seemed to believe Yun Lintian. After all, Linlin’s identity was there.
“What about the soul pond?” Zhou Qingyu suddenly asked. Seeing Yun Lintian glancing at her, she hurriedly explained. “Don’t get me wrong. I just want to know whether there’s really a soul pond.”
Yun Lintian nodded and took three large jars filled with the liquid from the soul pond out. “Here is everyone’s portion. I believe it can improve your spirit significantly.”
Lei Feifei and the other two glanced at the jars in amazement. With just a sniff, they could feel their souls were improving drastically.
One had to know it was extremely difficult to make a breakthrough further when the practitioner reached the peak of the Monarch Profound Realm. Lei Feifei, Lei Jin, and Zhou Qingyu were without resources. They had spent a ton of resources, yet they couldn’t even make tiny progress throughout these years. This soul liquid could actually allow them to improve instantly. It was truly unbelievable.
“This…” Zhou Qingyu did not know what to say at the moment. She inquired about the soul pond out of curiosity, but Yun Lintian gave it away without thinking. This made her feel both grateful and guilty.
“Take them at ease. You all have seen the size of the pond already. I still have a lot of it. Just tell me it’s not enough.” Yun Lintian said casually. He didn’t mind giving them this peerless resource. In any case, they could be considered allies.
“Then we will accept this. Thank you.” Lei Feifei nodded and took one jar away, followed by Zhou Qingyu and Lei Jin.
After putting the jar away, Lei Feifei asked. “What’s your plan?”
Yun Lintian took a sip of tea and turned to Zhou Qingyu. “I’m afraid it won’t be long before Du Huanfeng contacts his Myriad Pill Palace. At that time, countless people will flock over. It’s difficult for Senior Zhou alone to block them… So, why don’t we take the initiative to leak this news?”
“You mean…” Zhou Qingyu seemed to guess something..
Yun Lintian nodded. “You should know that it’s impossible for you to keep the Black Jade mine. Instead of giving the Myriad Pill Palace a free pass, we better let everyone join the fun.”
Zhou Qingyu took a deep breath and said in a deep voice. “I understand.”
Yun Lintian knew it was difficult for Zhou Qingyu to make a decision. After all, Black Jade Island was a legacy of her family. What he asked Zhou Qingyu to do was akin to abandoning this place. However, everyone in this room was aware that it was impossible for Zhou Qingyu to go against the Myriad Pill Palace when they were determined to get this island.
Lei Feifei touched her best friend’s shoulder and comforted her. “It’s okay. At most, we can travel together like we used to do.”
Zhou Qingyu felt warm in heart. She smiled and said softly. “I’m fine. It doesn’t matter. One day, I will take this place back.”
“We will.” Lei Feifei nodded solemnly.
***
Since Yun Lintian had a conflict with Du Huanfeng at the moment, he couldn’t continue to stay in the Jade Pavilion further. Zhou Qingyu arranged a relatively secretive place for him.
After putting on an isolating formation, Yun Lintian quickly went to the Land of Beyond Heaven with Linlin.
The moment he stepped into the Land of Beyond Heaven, Yun Lintian could feel a noticeable change in the atmosphere here. The richness of profound energy in this place did not increase, but Yun Lintian could feel his mind become clearer just by simply breathing.
Yun Lintian looked around briefly and discovered a large pond appeared behind the Serene Bamboo forest. He immediately recognized it was no other than the newly acquired soul pond.
At this moment, several disciples were gathering around the pond, looking at it curiously. They had seen a lot of strange scenes appearing in this place. Hence, they weren’t surprised by the soul pond’s sudden appearance. They were merely curious about its usage.
When everyone saw Yun Lintian walk over, they hurriedly greeted him. “Greetings, Headmaster.”
Yun Lintian said with a smile. “This is called the soul pond. It can help all of you promote your soul. Later, I will ask Qingrou to arrange it for you.”
“Thank you, Headmaster.” All the disciples quickly bowed their heads and said in unison.
Yun Lintian waved his hand dismissively and said. “Let me test a bit.”
As he said, Yun Lintian quickly jumped into the soul pond with Linlin. Before they could do anything, the souls of Yun Lintian and Linlin were immediately flushed with an overwhelming comfortable feeling, making them involuntarily close their eyes, enjoying the benefits given by the soul pond.
