"So you've been going around in circles for so long, but haven't found a single clue, is that right?"
Xiao Xun'er sat inside, looking at the moonlight outside. Her face was calm, but her words grew colder. As she finished speaking, she turned around and looked back. Her beautiful eyes now revealed impatience.
The two people squatting in front of Xiao Xun'er were Gu Tian and Gu Di, who had been sent out to find Xiao Miao's whereabouts. Seeing their young lady in such a state, they were filled with fear. If they angered their young lady, they would probably be dealt with by the Gu clan.
Seeing the two people in front of her, Xiao Xun'er thought about Xiao Miao's safety, and her originally calm expression gradually darkened.
“Um, Miss, the clan has summoned the two of us back.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xun'er's face darkened, and she simply waved her hand, dismissing the two.
Although the two of them were incompetent, now that they are gone, it will probably be even more difficult for Ling Ying to find Xiaomiao on her own.
"Those old bastards dared to get in my way. I'll see how I deal with them later."
At this moment, the elders of the ancient clan were unaware that because of their obstruction, they had already been labeled as "to be dealt with" by their own young lady.
Meanwhile, Gu Tian and Gu Di, who had already fled thousands of miles away, were also inwardly groaning in despair.
Let's go back to when the two of them were first summoned.
"This must be the Yunlan Sect that Miss mentioned."
At this moment, Gu Tian and Gu Di arrived at the Yunlan Sect, which Xiao Xun'er had mentioned, and said that it needed to be thoroughly investigated.
As Gu Tian's soul expanded outwards, probing the entire Yunlan Sect, a soft exclamation was heard shortly afterward.
"Can you sense the presence of the Soul Clan here?"
As Gu Tian asked the question, Gu Di calmly sensed that this place indeed carried the aura of their mortal enemy.
The two exchanged a glance and nodded, then headed towards the source of the aura. Because of their high cultivation levels, even though the Yunlan Sect had been thoroughly investigated, no one noticed anything.
If Yun Yun were to see the direction the two were heading, she would be incredibly surprised, because the two were going to the place where the previous Yunlan Sect Master, Yun Shan, who was also Yun Yun's master, was in seclusion to break through to the Dou Zong realm. However, in the past, a prohibition had been issued, and no one was allowed to come and disturb them.
At this moment, Yunshan was in seclusion, struggling to break through the barrier with his battle qi, but a wisp of black ghostly aura appeared beside him, which was the source that the two members of the ancient clan had detected.
Yunshan was in seclusion during the arduous days of cultivation when a person dressed entirely in black robes suddenly appeared some time ago, emanating a terrifying aura.
Yunshan immediately recognized him as a bad person and wanted to capture him to question why he was in Yunlan Sect. Unexpectedly, his peak Douhuang cultivation was defeated by the black-robed man in two or three moves, and he realized that the man was a Douzong.
However, the person in front of him did not kill him. Instead, he wanted to help him break through to the Dou Zong realm. Yun Shan was worried that there was a trap, so he did not agree. The black-robed man left behind only a wisp of ghostly aura and left with a chilling sound.
"Hehehehe If you've figured it out, just input your battle aura into it and let me know."
Since then, Yunshan has never seen the man in black robes again, as the impression he left behind was simply too evil.
However, during this period, Yunshan was struggling to break through to the Dou Zong realm. In less than two or three years, his lifespan would be exhausted. If he could not break through to the Dou Zong realm, he would probably die.
Thinking of this, Yun Shan clenched his fists, his heart filled with resentment. Although Yun Yun was also a Dou Huang level expert, other forces were not without peak Dou Huang experts. Take Jia Xingtian of the royal family, for example. If he knew that he was dead, he would probably continue to weaken the power of Yunlan Sect, leading to its eventual downfall.
As Yunshan thought of this, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly:
"It's a pity that Yun'er has an excellent talent for cultivation, but she doesn't like it. If I had known this would happen, I would have made sure she cultivated to the peak of Dou Huang, even if it displeased her in the past."
However, since Yunshan had been in seclusion here for so long, he was unaware of what had happened in the outside world in recent years, and even less aware that his disciple had been in seclusion for nearly a year due to a shock. With the result of his previous accumulation of knowledge and skills, his cultivation level had broken through four stars and he was now a Douhuang Seven-Star.

Chapter 36 Capture
Yunshan couldn't help but look at the dark energy in his hand, feeling uncertain about whether he should call on the black-robed man to help him break through to the Dou Zong realm. However, he was certain that he would have to pay a price, which might be quite painful. This was the reason why Yunshan hesitated.
Suddenly, two figures appeared in front of Yunshan; it was Gu Tian and Gu Di who had arrived.
For example, the man in black robes earlier didn't say anything extra; he simply released a terrifying aura.
This made Yunshan secretly lament that perhaps his life was coming to an end.
The pressure emanating from the two people in front of them was even more terrifying than that of the man in black robes. They were both Dou Zong experts, but the two people in front of them did not have that sinister aura.
Just as Yunshan was staring blankly at the two, Gu Tian and Gu Di also saw the turbid energy in Yunshan's hand, but sensing that Yunshan's aura was not that of a member of the Soul Clan, they immediately spoke:
"Who are you? Why do you have the aura of the Soul Clan on your hands?"
When Yunshan saw the two asking questions, he didn't dare to be rude, since he couldn't beat them either. So he recounted how the man in black robes had arrived.
Upon hearing this, Gu Tian and Gu Di exchanged a glance and immediately concluded that the person their young lady was looking for was related to the Soul Clan members who had appeared here. After all, they had a terrible reputation and liked to collect the souls of the strong and geniuses, which seemed to fit the bill perfectly.
However, this would put the person the young lady had found in danger, so he immediately sent Koji back to report and then come back to make a decision.
Upon hearing the report from the ancient land, Xiao Xun'er became anxious and immediately demanded that they ensure Xiao Miao's safety.
Gu Tian judged during this time that the owner of this soul energy was not very powerful, probably only at the early stage of Dou Zong.
Gu Di, carrying his young mistress's orders, also rushed back without the slightest delay. After a brief discussion, the two instructed Yun Shan to bring the man in black robes to them.
Then Gu Di glanced at the old man on the ground and said to Gu Tian:
"This is probably the grandmaster of the person you are looking for."
Hearing Gu Di's words, Gu Tian was also startled. He had originally wanted to force him to do things, but now it seemed that if the other party held a grudge and complained to the person he was looking for, the young lady would probably punish them both.
Gu Tian frowned. He had originally planned to force him to act as bait to lure out the Soul Clan member, but now it seemed that wouldn't work.
"Pour your aura into this soul energy to lure the Soul Clan members over, and we two will certainly not treat you unfairly."
Gu Tian could only look at the old man in front of him, who only had the cultivation of a peak Dou Huang. Giving him a Breakthrough Pill to help him break through to Dou Zong was not considered a mistreatment. At least he wouldn't be punished by the young lady.
Meanwhile, Yunshan's mind was in complete disarray. He had no idea what the two were talking about since they started speaking, but it seemed that the person they were looking for was related to him, and that he was apparently that person's grandmaster.
Doesn't Yun Yun only have one disciple?
Yun'er does have an apprentice, who seems to be Nalan Yanran from the Nalan family. Could it be that she was arrested?
But seeing the demands made by the two people in front of him, Yunshan dared not refuse. So he followed their instructions, channeled his battle qi into the black-robed man, and waited for him to come over.
Seeing Yunshan's actions, Gu Tian and Gu Di also concealed their presence.
As time passed, a voice rang out, sending chills down Yunshan's spine.
"Hehehe, it seems you've thought it through."
Hearing the voice, a figure in black robes slowly appeared behind Yunshan.
Before he could utter a second word, Gu Tian and Gu Di, who had been concealing their presence behind him, suddenly attacked, striking the black-robed man in front of them with a single blow.
The two did not use their full strength, but only 30% of it. Even so, they still severely injured the unsuspecting Soul Clan member in front of them.
"Who are you? I am Protector Wu of the Soul Palace. Aren't you afraid of the Soul Palace's retaliation?"
Protector Wu turned to look at the two, but immediately judged that their strength was superior to his. Even in his prime, he could not defeat them. He couldn't help but speak, wanting to use the Soul Palace behind him to intimidate them.
Upon hearing this, Gu Tian and Gu Di both smiled.
"Brother, am I right? With this aura, even those who aren't from the Soul Clan would find it hard to distinguish."
Faced with his younger brother's teasing, Gu Tian simply smiled and shook his head, then said:
“If he shows up, things will be much easier. We can capture him, find out his whereabouts, and then Miss’s job will be done. We’ll have something to report back to.”
Seeing the person slowly walking towards him, Protector Wu's expression changed. He had already used the power behind him, but the two people in front of him remained unmoved and even threatened to capture him.
These two were either either reckless or unafraid of the forces behind him, but judging from their appearance, they were clearly not the former.
But Protector Wu still harbored a glimmer of hope, and Xuanxuan spoke:
"I have no grudge against you, why are you targeting me like this? Why not let me leave?"
But looking at the two people who continued walking towards him without hesitation, he knew that they were clearly not going to let him go.
"Don't even mention that you've caught the person Miss is looking for. Even if you haven't, if my brother and I see any of your Soul Clan members, we'll kill them without hesitation. Brother, let's capture him alive and then search his soul."
Upon hearing this, Protector Wu felt a surge of utter dismay; this was simply too much of a deception. Yet, listening to the two men's words, he broke out in a cold sweat.
Although he had captured a young genius in Pingyu Land some time ago, and the boy had shouted before his death that the people behind him would not let him go, he did not expect that they would come to his door so soon, and with two Dou Zong powerhouses at that.
"So what if I captured your people? You two think you can capture me? Although I can't beat you two, if I want to leave, neither of you can stop me. Soul Release Technique."
With a loud shout, Wu Hufa's body instantly dispersed into hundreds of strands of Yin spirit energy.
Gu Tian and Gu Di's expressions darkened as they watched the scene unfold before them. They had thought they could easily subdue the person in front of them and hadn't paid much attention, but they never expected him to escape in such a way.
If word got out that the two of them couldn't even defeat a low-level Dou Zong, wouldn't they become a laughingstock?
Ancient Heaven immediately established the Way:
"I'll catch up first, you take care of this."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Tian's figure vanished instantly, chasing after the dissipating Yin energy.
"This is the Breakthrough Pill, and next to it is the Lingzhi Spring of my ancient clan. Taking the two together can greatly increase the success rate of breaking through to the Dou Zong realm. Consider this your reward."
After Gu Tian finished speaking, he collected the excess Yin energy in the jade bottle, took out two bottles of pills, said to Yun Shan, and then chased after Gu Tian, disappearing from the spot.
The departure of the three left Yunshan, who was left behind, stunned for a moment. Looking at the two treasures in his hands, which would cause a frenzy in the outside world, he couldn't help but sigh that life is always full of ups and downs.

Chapter 37 The Lord of the Branch Hall
Looking at the pill in his hand, Yunshan couldn't help but smile. After all this time, he had to betray the man in black robes. The man in black robes had such an evil aura that Yunshan could tell at a glance that he was not a good person. He felt that he had a clear conscience about his actions.
Looking at the spoils he had earned through his own hard work, Yun Shan nodded in satisfaction. However, remembering what the two men had said earlier, he decided to find Yun Yun and ask her for clarification after breaking through to the Dou Zong realm. If what the two men said was true, then the Yunlan Sect would be very prosperous in the future.
