In a secret room in the City Lord manor, Han Bingling satzily on afortable chair while listening to Fu Tiangang''s report.


    "I don''t have enough evidence, but the Ming n is definitely rted to Poison Valley." Fu Tiangang said. Seeing Han Bingling motioned her chin at him, he continued. "Recently, they have weed Qi Yuanfeng, the Crown Prince of Heavenly Fortune Nation. The rtionship between them is close as in the past Ming Jinlong has epted him as a disciple."


    "Heavenly Fortune Nation?" Han Bingling''s brows raised slightly. She didn''t pay attention to this nation much, as it was too far from here.


    Fu Tiangang exined. "Heavenly Fortune Nation is located southernmost of our continent. Last month, I got a report stating there was an upheaval event urred. The three major sects within the nation had mysteriously disappeared at the same time. I''ve sent my men to investigate on this matter already."


    "Hmm?" Han Bingling immediately frowned upon hearing this. The disappearance of a sect wasmon in this cruel world. However, many sects had disappeared at the same time was indeed umon.


    Fu Tiangang continued. "The three sects are Profound Sword Sect, Sacred me Sect, and Misty Cloud Sect. I heard it is Qi Qianxing, the ruler of the nation who did this." He changed his sitting posture slightly and said. "But from my men''s reports, I found something unusual. They discovered that several high-ranking officers and influential ns were also disappearing overnight. What''s more, most of them were found dead by poisonter."


    "Misty Cloud Sect?" Han Bingling found this name was familiar and tried to recall the information. In the end, she couldn''t remember anything rted to this name and decide to put it aside first. She said. "No doubt. Poison Valley is behind this."


    Fu Tiangang nodded. "I wonder what is Pce Master Han''s instruction on this matter?"


    Han Bingling didn''t know why her mind was still lingering with Misty Cloud Sect. She suddenly asked. "Do you have a report of this Qi Yuanfeng? I want to see it."


    Fu Tiangang was puzzled. In his opinion, Qi Yuanfeng was just a small figure that giving nothing to him. Hence, he didn''t understand why Han Bingling was interested in such a minor character. He sent a signal to his trusted servant outside the room, and thetter immediately entered with a jade slip.


    "Please take a look." Fu Tiangang handed the jade slip to Han Bingling respectfully.


    Han Bingling used her Spiritual Sense on the slip and went silent for a while before saying. "Interesting. The Ming n even giving him a precious Thunder Crystal. It seems he''s not a small character like we thought."


    Fu Tiangang startled and then agreed with Han Bingling. "Indeed. Please forgive me for overlooking this matter."


    Han Bingling waved her hand. "I don''t me you. You''ve done a good job already." She paused for a second and said. "By the way, who do you send to Thunder Valley this time? Is it your grandson, Tianya?"


    Hearing his grandson''s name, Fu Tiangang straightened his body and said proudly. "Yes. It''s Tianya. He has broken through to the first level of Ruler Profound Realm not long ago. It''s time for him to consolidate his foundation."


    Han Bingling smiled faintly. Fu Tianya was a prominent genius that even she had to pay attention to him. He was thirty this year but already reached the Ruler Profound Realm. This kind of talent was considered extraordinary within the Northern Continent.


    "Good. Tell him to pay attention to Lei Jun. This bastard is a vengeful person. It''s better to stay away from him." Han Bingling said softly.


    Fu Tiangang''s expression turned serious as he bowed. "Thank you for your concern, Pce Master Han."


    Just as Han Bingling was about to say something further, she suddenly heard Han Muyue''s voice. "Master. Young Miss Lin has left the city with Yun Lintian."


    Han Bingling was surprised, and her lips curled into a charming smile.


    Fu Tiangang coincidentally raised his head and saw this. His mind immediately went nk for a while before hurriedly lowered his head in shame.


    "Do you want me to follow them, Master?" Han Muyue asked.


    Han Bingling considered briefly and shook her head. She knew this might anger Yun Lintian, and she didn''t want to further worsen the rtionship between him and her. "No need."


    "Understood, Master." Han Muyue replied and went silent.


    Han Bingling stretched her bodyzily and yawned. "Prepare a ce for me. I want to rest for a while."


    Fu Tiangang didn''t dare to raise his head again as he replied. "Immediately." Afterward, he quickly fled away.


    Watching an old man fleeing, Han Binglingughed while shaking her head amusedly. She thought of Yun Lintian and Lin Xinyao, then muttered. "Fate is truly unpredictable."


    ***


    Yun Lintian and Lin Xinyao had walked for two hours and arrived nearby a small creek not far away from Thunder Valley. Yun Lintian looked around briefly and chose this ce to stay for the time being.


    "I''ll cook now. Can you set up a formation?" Yun Lintian said.


    Lin Xinyao didn''t reply but took out several formation stones and set up a simple istion formation.


    Yun Lintian nced at her and thought it seemed she wasn''t talented in formation profound art. He set up a firece and started cooking while Mumu was staring at him without blinking as though it feared he would disappear at any time.


    Twenty minutester, Yun Lintian ced several dishes on a table he set up earlier before calling Mumu and Lin Xinyao. "The meal is ready now."


    Mumu reappeared on the table with a sh, using its nose to sniff on various dishes before it.


    "Don''t be rude, Mumu." Lin Xinyao reprimanded her pet slightly.


    Yun Lintian waved his hand. "It''s okay. She is a profound beast, after all. Eating is her nature." He then picked a big chicken leg up and ced it on Mumu''s small te. He said. "Eat as much as you want."


    Lin Xinyao looked at this stranger and benefactor in front of her and fell into deep thought.
