With features bizarre and muscles shimmering in red light, the Six Union God Sect’s Protectorate Law King, Blood Devil Xiao Yuntian, sporting a head of long blood-red hair, heard the words and gave a faint smile, saying, "He’s on Dragon Tiger Mountain."
"Dragon Tiger Mountain?" Zha Jiedunzhu was somewhat surprised; evidently, he was unaware of what kind of place that was.
Da Yuan Country didn’t pay much attention to the martial power within Da Xia’s territory, focusing all their attention on the initial Emperor of Da Xia, as well as the Supreme Leader of the Jing Tian Department, the Tower Supervisor of the Mingjing Department, and the Tower Supervisor of the Qintian Monitor—these four individuals.
In Da Yuan Country’s eyes, if it weren’t for these four, or rather, if it weren’t for the Emperor of Da Xia, they would have conquered Da Xia and trampled Tiandu long ago.
After all, Shiba Shitu, the Supreme Master of Da Yuan Country, was a Coagulation Field realm grandmaster with complete mastery. Even back then, the Supreme Leader of the Jing Tian Department and the Tower Supervisor of the Mingjing Department might not have been a match for this Supreme Master of Da Yuan Country.

If not for this, how could Shiba Shitu possibly live up to the name of the foremost martial expert within Da Yuan Country? He wouldn’t have been worshipped by all the citizens of Da Yuan.
In Da Yuan, even though Emperor Toumuer, his status could not compare to that of the Supreme Master Shiba Shitu.
After all, Da Yuan Country values martial prowess, idolizes the strong, and cherishes the martial spirit heavily, and as the number one martial expert of Da Yuan, Shiba Shitu certainly was beyond comparison with Toumuer.
Furthermore, even the contemporary Emperor of Da Yuan, Toumuer, was a disciple of the Supreme Master Shiba Shitu.
Even the current leader of the Great Snow Mountain Dragon Elephant Buddhist Sect in Da Yuan was a junior to this Supreme Master of Da Yuan.
It can be said that Shiba Shitu holds an unsurpassably high status in Da Yuan.
And precisely because of this, after Zha Jiedunzhu committed a grave mistake, he was spared from disaster due to Shiba Shitu’s status.
"What place is that, should we attack it directly now?" Zha Jiedunzhu asked.
However, Xiao Yuntian shook his head and said, "It’s best we do not go there."
"Why?" Zha Jiedunzhu asked, immediately somewhat surprised.
Blood Devil Xiao Yuntian frowned and said, "Because the Old Celestial Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain’s Heavenly Master Sect is a top-tier grandmaster with complete mastery in the Coagulation Field realm, just like you and me."
"Oh?"
Hearing that there was a martial artist of the same level as himself, Zha Jiedunzhu’s expression immediately grew solemn.
"It seems, this so-called Heavenly Master Sect of Dragon Tiger Mountain is your enemy?" Zha Jiedunzhu asked.
"Indeed."
Xiao Yuntian nodded, with the intelligence gathering capabilities of the Six Union God Sect, how could they not know that the Heavenly Master Sect of Dragon Tiger Mountain had already sided with Da Xia, and the news of Wang Ling Manor was informed to Gu Chen by them.
"Heh." Hearing this, Zha Jiedunzhu grinned, revealing a mouthful of snow-white, eerie teeth, and said, "Why don’t we just go to Dragon Tiger Mountain? Combined, our strength could kill even that Old Celestial Master!"
To Zha Jiedunzhu, everyone within the boundaries of Da Xia’s territory was an enemy, after all, he came from Da Yuan Country, and the two sides’ positions were inherently opposed. Now that he had heard of such powerful figures existing within the martial circles of Da Xia, how could Zha Jiedunzhu let this slide?
But Blood Devil Xiao Yuntian, the Protectorate Law King of the Six Union God Sect, shook his head again and said, "The old man on Dragon Tiger Mountain is not easy to provoke; he has lived for over one hundred and fifty years now and doesn’t have much life left. Unless necessary, it’s best we don’t provoke him."
Seeing that Xiao Yuntian was not interested, Zha Jiedunzhu could only nod his head and did not speak further.
"When will that little vermin come down the mountain?" Zha Jiedunzhu asked.
"Soon, he can’t stay on Dragon Tiger Mountain for too long," Xiao Yuntian answered.
At that moment, Zha Jiedunzhu turned his head to look at Xiao Yuntian and suddenly asked, "What is the goal of your Six Union God Sect?"
Xiao Yuntian didn’t answer but instead replied with a faint smile, "What is Da Yuan Country’s goal?"
Zha Jiedunzhu’s gaze turned icy as he said coldly, "To eradicate Da Xia!"
Hearing this, Xiao Yuntian nodded and said, "Indeed, that goal, we could indeed cooperate for a long time."
Suddenly, a dense smile appeared on Zha Jiedunzhu’s face.
…
Gu Chen stayed another day on Dragon Tiger Mountain, discussed some matters with the Old Celestial Master, and without staying on the mountain any longer, chose to say goodbye to the Old Celestial Master directly.
"Be very careful on the way." The Old Celestial Master nodded, then assigned the Young Celestial Master Zhang Chengxuan to personally send Gu Chen down the mountain.

After descending Dragon Tiger Mountain, Gu Chen planned to return to Tiandu, to inform Qin Wu of the events that had happened during this period so that Qin Wu could send someone to take over everything of the sects that he had eradicated.
The news of Wang Ling Manor had just happened two days prior and had not yet spread.
Gu Chen traveled quickly, and in less than half an hour, he had already left Dragon Tiger Mountain far behind.
Hiss!
Just then, Gu Chen’s heart suddenly tightened, sensing an incredibly powerful divine consciousness piercing through the void, attacking him.
Swish!
Because he had developed a divine consciousness, Gu Chen was able to predict in advance, unlike before when he had not broken through to the realm of divine consciousness and could only take hits directly. He stepped into the LingXu Nine Steps, his figure flashed, and he avoided the attack.
"Eh?"
A light sound of surprise arose, clearly, the person who struck was somewhat astonished, not expecting his abrupt attack to be dodged by Gu Chen.
It must be understood that the speed of a divine consciousness is very fast, and its arrival is extremely sudden, yet Gu Chen still managed to avoid it, which could only mean that Gu Chen’s divine consciousness, or rather his intuition, was exceptionally sharp.
"Hm? You are...?"
Gu Chen, looking at the two figures that appeared nearby, immediately furrowed his brow, feeling very familiar.
