“Feels free to call me at any time if you want something. Enjoy your stay.” The receptionist politely excused herself and left after leading Yun Lintian to a spacious room with three side bedrooms. 𝘦.𝘰𝘳𝑔
Yun Lintian glanced around the room with Eyes of Heaven and discovered no observing formation in this place. This puzzled him slightly.
“What’s their plan exactly?” Huoyun Zhu’s brows knitted together as she looked around.
Meanwhile, Huoyun Yurou didn’t say anything and calmly sat on a comfortable chair in the living room.
“It doesn’t matter for now. They will eventually reveal their tails later.” Yun Lintian said and sat down opposite Huoyun Yurou. He placed Linlin on his lap and began to brew the spirit tea.
After giving everyone a cup, Yun Lintian asked. “Senior, what about those friends of yours?”
“They will arrive soon.” Huoyun Yurou took a sip of tea and answered calmly. “Are you worried?”
Yun Lintian shook his head. “At first, I did. But now, it didn’t matter anymore. I only hope that everyone can leave here safely.”
Huoyun Yurou smiled kindly. “You don’t have to worry about us. This is our fight in the beginning. If we don’t do it now, we would never be able to raise our heads again for the rest of our lives.”
Yun Lintian nodded with a heavy expression.
At this moment, Huoyun Yurou suddenly frowned and relaxed in the next moment. A smile appeared on her lips as she said. “They are here.”

At the south gate of the Nine Profound City, a group of six women in revealing clothes slowly walked into the city. Their appearances could be described as alluring. One thing that they had in common was a shiny snake-like patch of scales on their necks.
“Master, where should we head to?” A beautiful young girl with a gentle temperament asked.
Leading in the front was a dignified middle-aged woman with emerald-colored eyes. She was the current matriarch of the Deep Sea Naga Clan, Yu Rongxi. She glanced around briefly and said. “There will be someone come to tell us.”
The young girl tilted her head slightly, appearing did not understand the meaning of her master’s words. “Someone? Who is it, Master?”
Yu Rongxi stopped her movement and looked at her disciple with a helpless smile. “Jiao’er, Master is really worried about you.”
“Worry about me? Why, Master?” The young girl, Yu Jiao’er, was even more confused.
Seeing her disciple’s innocent face, she let out a soft sigh and looked at the three women behind. “You four take care of your junior sister. Don’t let her run around.”
“Please rest easy, Master.” The four women replied in unison.
Hearing this, Yu Jiao’er pouted. “Master, I can take care of myself. I’m an adult now.”
Yu Rongxi was about to say something. She suddenly heard a pleasant male voice ring out from behind. “Sister Rongxi?”
Yu Rongxi turned around and saw a handsome man with golden pupils smiling at her. This man was dressed in a black robe with a golden python pattern.
“Little Jin? How come you arrive here so fast?” Yu Rongxi greeted him with a bright smile.
The man was Jin Yang, the current patriarch of the Golden Python Clan. He laughed gently. “I’ve set off a week ahead of schedule.” He glanced at Yu Jiao’er and said with a gentle smile. “Time sure flies. In a blink of an eye, Jiao’er has become a little beauty now.”
Yu Jiao’er covered her mouth and giggled. “Hehe, thank you for the compliment, Uncle Jin.”
At this moment, Zi Liuchen appeared in the crowd and said to Jin Yang’s group. “Sorry to interrupt your joyous reunion. Our master has arranged a place for all of you. Come with me.”
Jin Yang and Yu Rongxi glanced at each other, and no one said anything. They calmly followed Zi Liuchen toward the Purple Inn.
“Master, who is this person? Why is he so arrogant?” Along the way, Yu Jiao’er drew closer to her master and whispered softly.
“Him? He’s just a dog of Zi Jinghu. His master has always been arrogant. It’s normal for his dog to be like him.” Yu Rongxi didn’t even try to lower her voice as she spoke it out.
In the front, Zi Liuchen clearly heard this. His face turned cold, but he didn’t do anything in the end.
Soon, everyone arrived at the Purple Inn. Zi Liucheng turned around and said. “Enjoy your stay here while it lasts. I’ll leave first.” Following that, his figure vanished from the spot.
A dangerous glint flashed through Jin Yang’s eyes for a brief moment. He made a gesture and said. “Let’s go. Let’s meet Senior Huoyun.”
Yu Rongxi had no opinion and quickly walked into the inn. Along the way to Huoyun Yurou’s room, they could perceive the killing and observing formations in this place, but none of them took it seriously.
After the receptionist left, Jin Yang knocked on the door and said politely. “Junior Jin Yang respectfully greets Senior Huoyun.”
“Junior Yu Rongxi greets Senior Huoyun.” Yu Rongxi followed.
“Come in.” Huoyun Yurou’s voice resounded from the inside, and the door gradually opened.
Jin Yang’s group slowly walked into the room, and their attention was immediately attracted by a young man sitting opposite Huoyun Yurou. From what they knew, there was no such a young man in the younger generation of the Fire Cloud Rat Clan.
Yu Jiao’er’s eyes were glued to Yun Lintian the moment she saw him. She was deeply attracted by a terrifying power hiding within this young man. Although she looked stupid on the outside, her talent could not be underestimated. She was the peak of the Ruler Profound Realm now at the age of eighteen.
“Please sit.” Huoyun Yurou said warmly and pointed at the vacant seats beside her.
“Thank you, Senior.” Jin Yang and Yu Rongxi cautiously sat down while the rest stood behind them.
“Senior, this….” Jin Yang couldn’t help asking.
Yun Lintian clasped his fists and greeted respectfully. “Greetings two Seniors. My name is Huoyun Tian. Please take care of me.”
“Huoyun Tian?” Yu Rongxi turned to look at Huoyun Yurou in doubt.
“He’s our trump card.” Huoyun Yurou replied with a calm smile.
