Chao Tian looked at it for a while and said, "Master, you don't need to worry about this, I'll take care of it."

"Huh?" Shu Jianyue looked at him in surprise. "What are you going to do?"

Chao Tian smiled and said, "Use pills."

"This elixir is something that people in the world desperately want, but with a little effort, I can easily obtain the necessary materials."

Upon hearing this, Shu Jianyue promptly gave him a huge pile of potatoes, purple sweet potatoes, and red sweet potatoes. She didn't have much of anything else, but she had a lot of these.

"I will give you some more spirit fruits as a reward for those spirit beasts, and for yourselves. Eat as much as you want, and let me know if you run out."

Chao Tian smiled and nodded, "I still have some of the spiritual fruits you left behind. I'll let you know if I need more."

Shu Jianyue nodded, "These are storage rings I made for you. I know you have your own personal spaces, and I'm giving these to you just in case."

Chaotian and Tiankong nodded in acceptance.

Standing to the side, Yi Dexi watched with shining eyes, thinking, "When will I be qualified to form a contract with my master? I want all of that too."

After giving some instructions, Shu Jianyue took Yu Chuan and Yan Xi back to the Hunyuan Immortal Sect.

After returning to the rear peak, Shu Jianyue went into seclusion to study weapon crafting, alchemy, formations, and talismans, ignoring everything outside.

Looking at the black ointment in the cauldron, Shu Jianyue's face turned pale.

This is the third batch she's failed to refine. She's never failed before, so why did they all fail today?

The furnace didn't explode because of the Blazing Netherworld Fire and the Devouring Heaven Cauldron.

After leaving the training room, seeing that Yu Chuan and Yan Xi were not at the back peak, he went out to look for the two little ones, only to learn that the Third Elder had gone missing.

Shu Jianyue arrived at the council hall and, seeing everyone looking worried, asked, "Is the Third Elder's soul jade tablet broken?"

The elder shook his head. "No, but we just can't find him."

"Where did he go, and what did he do?" He couldn't have just gone down the mountain on his own and disappeared.

Yu Yangzi glanced at her and said, "He went to investigate the matter of extracting souls; he has disappeared in Fengxian Kingdom."

"Initially, the investigation suspected that there were evil cultivators in the Li family, so he took his disciples to investigate. The disciples all returned, but he disappeared."

The capital of Fengxian Kingdom was not far away. Shu Jianyue closed her eyes and directed her spiritual power toward the capital of Fengxian Kingdom. After looking at all the places in Fengxian Kingdom, she found it in a courtyard closest to the palace.

The person was sitting there leisurely drinking tea, showing no signs of being coerced.

A moment later, a charming woman pushed open the door and walked in. She smiled sweetly and handed him a jade box. "Third Elder, this is a tribute from the Patriarch. Please make an exception for me."

"Third Elder, rest assured, we will not make things difficult for you. We have already prepared a scapegoat."

As soon as she finished speaking, two men in black brought in a thin old man.

"Third Elder, this man is the owner of the Zongheng Spiritual Weapon Shop. My little sister bought the fake spiritual weapon from him."

"Thank you very much, Third Elder. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to come to the Li family."

The Third Elder accepted the jade box, glanced at the old man, and nodded, saying, "This is a one-time exception; there will be no next time."

"Okay, definitely." Li Feifei smiled sweetly. "Thank you, Third Elder. Take care, Third Elder."

As soon as the Third Elder left, the smile on her face vanished. "Go and inform the patriarch that the Hunyuan Immortal Sect has been dealt with."

"Also, send Sisi to the Holy Star Sect. She is not allowed to leave the sect without my permission."

"yes."

Shu Jianyue opened her eyes and looked at them. "Don't worry, the Third Elder will be back soon, and he will bring back some 'good news'."

"However, I hope we can send someone to investigate the Li family in Fengxian capital again."

"I saw the scene of the Li family bribing the Third Elder, and I also saw the scene of the Li family making the manager of the Zongheng Spiritual Weapon Shop a scapegoat."

"Believe it or not, I'm leaving now."

"Wait a minute, Grandmaster Uncle!" Yu Yangzi hurriedly asked, "Grandmaster Uncle, is what you say true?"

Shu Jianyue turned to look at him. "I told you, you can choose not to believe me."

"The millennium foundation of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect should not be destroyed in your generation."

The way they said that made it sound like disbelief would destroy the foundation of the Hunyuan Immortal Sect.

The Grand Elder looked at Yu Yangzi, then at the peak masters who were exchanging bewildered glances. "Sect Leader, Grandmaster Uncle said she saw it. How did she see it?"

Yu Yangzi clenched his hands slightly behind his back. "Mental strength."

He examined Du Yisheng's dantian and found that it was damaged by mental energy, so much so that it was completely shattered and beyond repair.

The Grand Elder's eyes widened. "Grandmaster Aunt is only at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment. How could she possibly have discovered the capital of Fengxian Kingdom from here?"

Yu Yangzi shook his head and said, "I don't know either. This may be the reason why the Ancestor took her as his disciple."

When Shu Jianyue returned to the rear peak, she was immediately entangled by Yu Chuan and Yan Xi.

Yes, Yan Xi is on the list.

"Mother, let's go find Father."

Shu Jianyue thought she had misheard, "Huh?"

"Looking for Daddy, Mommy." Yu Chuan grabbed her leg and tried to climb up.

Shu Jianyue picked him up and asked, "Why are you suddenly looking for your father? Did someone tell you something?"

Yu Chuan shook his head, "It was my sister and me who sensed Father's presence."

"Sensing Father's presence?" Shu Jianyue frowned as she looked at Yu Chuan and Yan Xi. What exactly was their father, and why were they connected in this way?

Yan Xi reached out her hands, "Mommy, hug me."

Shu Jianyue picked up Yan Xi and asked, "Xi Xi, do you also want to go find Daddy?"

Yan Xixi nodded, "Yes, Father is not safe now, he seems to be in danger."

Shu Jianyue took a deep breath, "Yu'er, Xixi, what if we find your father and he won't let us be together?"

"What if he tries to take it from me?"

Who knows what kind of person the other person is, whether they are good or bad, handsome or ugly, human or ghost?

Yan Xi shook her head firmly and said, "No, Father won't take us away."

Yuchuan nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes, that won't happen."

Shu Jianyue's brows furrowed deeply. "How come you suddenly sensed Father's presence? Why didn't you sense it before?"

Both of them shook their heads at the same time, "We don't know, we only sensed it today, we didn't have it before."

Shu Jianyue put Yan Xi down, glanced at the two of them, and said, "Let Mother think about this."

Something feels off.

It seems that only spirit beasts and divine beasts can have a bloodline connection, right?

Shu Jianyue didn't want to go find the so-called father of the child, so she simply put it off.
