In the Southwest Region of the Eastern Xuan Region, there lies a mountain range stretching for hundreds of thousands of miles. This mountain range is shrouded in clouds and mist year-round, making it incredibly mysterious.
Deep within that vast and boundless Dao Domain mountain range, the swirling clouds and mist are distinctly separated. Countless colossal mountains, towering tens of thousands of feet high, cluster together. Vaguely, one can see endless, magnificent structures upon these giant peaks.
At the very summit of these endless, magnificent structures, there are two large characters carved with boundless divine charm - Dao Sect!
Within the Heaven Hall of the Dao Sect, many disciples were gathered, discussing the Yuan Gate's annual competition.
"That damned Yuan Gate, another genius has appeared! I heard that in the annual competition half a month ago, he actually defeated the Little Yuan King without a scratch."
"Damn it, what are we going to do about this Sect Tournament?"
"Sigh..."
Just as everyone was discussing, a woman in red appeared behind them.
"Another genius has appeared in the Yuan Gate?" The woman in red spoke with a clear voice, accompanied by sounds like musical instruments being struck, which was refreshing to hear, but her words carried a strong sense of displeasure.
"Yes." The other Dao Sect disciples then recounted all of Lin Yun's deeds in the Yuan Gate.
"Hmph, those guys from the Yuan Gate should all be crippled, especially that one named Lin Yun," the woman in red said through gritted teeth, her eyes filled with considerable anger.
"That's right, Senior Sister Ling Qingzhu, those guys from the Yuan Gate are all detestable. They should all be crippled one by one and thrown into the forest to feed the demonic beasts," a disciple beside her said indignantly.
"Lin Yun... Lin Yun, I suddenly remember, it seems there was a disciple who joined the Barren Hall over a year ago who was from the same dynasty as that Lin Yun, and I think they were even cousins," another disciple nearby said.
Ling Qingzhu immediately asked, "Who is it?"
"If I remember correctly, it should be Lin Dong. He also has quite a reputation in the Barren Hall now."
Ling Qingzhu's willow-like brows furrowed slightly, and she murmured, "Barren Hall, Lin Dong. I'll go find him and ask about that Lin Yun."
After listening to the disciples' discussion, Ling Qingzhu headed towards the Barren Hall.
On the giant peak of the Barren Hall, there were countless clusters of palaces, densely packed. Figures moved through them like ants, exuding a vibrant energy.
Looking at the figures below, Ling Qingzhu directly rushed towards the highest palace.
Landing in front of the palace, she walked towards the main hall.
Just as she reached the entrance, she saw a man in gray.
Seeing Ling Qingzhu, the man in gray was clearly startled.
While he was in a daze, Ling Qingzhu asked, "Tong Chuan, do you know where Lin Dong is?"
Hearing this, Tong Chuan pondered for a moment before saying, "I just saw that guy come down from the Pill River. He should be in the hall next to it."
"Okay." After getting the answer she wanted, Ling Qingzhu nodded and headed towards the hall next to it.
Looking at Ling Qingzhu's retreating figure, Tong Chuan muttered to himself with a puzzled expression.
"Why do I feel like this Second Miss is holding back some anger? What's going on?"
"Ah, I forgot I still have urgent matters to attend to." Saying this, Tong Chuan quickly soared into the sky.
Meanwhile, Ling Qingzhu arrived at the hall next to it and immediately saw Lin Dong sitting inside.
She walked over to Lin Dong in two steps.
Looking at Ling Qingzhu approaching, Lin Dong's face also showed a hint of confusion.
Why was this Second Miss looking for him?
"I heard that you and Lin Yun are from the same dynasty, and even the same clan, with a blood relationship?" Ling Qingzhu asked, sweeping her hand over a nearby seat and sitting down.
"Yes? What's wrong?" Lin Dong asked, somewhat puzzled.
"How is this Lin Yun? What's your relationship with him?" Ling Qingzhu asked, observing Lin Dong's expression.
Upon hearing this, Lin Dong immediately smiled and said, "Brother Lin Yun, he's incredibly powerful! Back in the Great Yan Dynasty, he was the most astonishing and brilliant genius of our Great Yan Dynasty. In the Ancient Battlefield, he also crushed many powerhouses from super dynasties and finally won the championship of the Hundred Empire War. As for our relationship, he has always treated me like a real brother. Many of my Spiritual Treasures and Pills were given to me by him."
Ling Qingzhu's willow-like brows raised slightly, and she asked with some confusion, "Then why didn't you two join the Dao Sect together? Why did you separate?"
Hearing this, Lin Dong also scratched his head, a look of thought appearing on his face before he said, "Maybe Brother Lin Yun had his own ideas. I don't know why. My joining the Dao Sect was also arranged by Brother Lin Yun."
After hearing Lin Dong's words, Ling Qingzhu's eyes held a lot of strangeness.
Why would that Lin Yun arrange for Lin Dong to enter the Dao Sect, while he himself joined the Yuan Gate? Could they have ulterior motives?
Thinking of this, a hint of unkindness flashed in Ling Qingzhu's eyes as she looked at Lin Dong.
If this Lin Dong was truly an insider arranged by Lin Yun in the Dao Sect, then if it were to be exposed in the future, it would definitely be a disaster for the Dao Sect.
I must tell Father about this as soon as possible.
With these thoughts running through her mind, Ling Qingzhu found an excuse to bid farewell to Lin Dong.
After saying goodbye to Lin Dong, Ling Qingzhu headed towards the main hall on the highest peak of the Dao Sect.
Looking at Ling Qingzhu's retreating figure, Lin Dong was full of questions. Why was this Second Miss so curious about Brother Lin Yun today? Just as he was thinking, a few more people entered the hall.
"You must have heard about that guy named Lin Yun from the Yuan Gate, right?"
"The current number one person in the Yuan Gate?"
"..."
Hearing these people's discussion, Lin Dong's mouth slightly opened, his eyes filled with considerable shock.
"Lin Yun brother has only been at the Yuan Gate for a year, and he's already become this strong?"
"Looks like I still need to cultivate properly."
Lin Dong muttered to himself, then his figure flashed again, heading towards the Pill River not far away.
On the highest main peak of the Dao Sect, in a magnificent and majestic hall, three people were seated at this moment.
One person was seated in the main position, wearing a black robe, exuding a strong aura of authority, clearly indicating a high status.
To his left sat an old man. If Lin Yun were here, he would definitely recognize his identity.
This person was Wu Dao, the representative of the Dao Sect during the Hundred Empire War.
And facing him was Chen Zhen, the Hall Master of the Barren Hall.
"You should have all heard about the matter at the Yuan Gate, right?" The person seated in the main position slowly said.
"That young man named Lin Yun, in just over a year, was able to completely defeat the Three Little Kings and even gain the recognition of those three old fellows from the Yuan Gate. He is truly extraordinary," Chen Zhen praised.
