Will Dai Yun Shan take over the Misty Cloud Sect?

Great! That's a good idea!

Yang Shan feigned disdain:

"I thought it was something serious. It's just protecting the Misty Cloud Sect for you, right? Don't worry, the Misty Cloud Sect is still useful to us, and we definitely won't let anything happen here!"

Yun Shan looked at Protector Wu.

Yun Shan has lived to a ripe old age; how could he not be cunning? How could Yang Shan, a mere One Star Dou Huang, possibly boast of protecting the Misty Cloud Sect? Ultimately, it all depends on Protector Wu!

Yun Shan understood that if he were to let Protector Wu take care of the Misty Cloud Sect, regardless of whether Misty Cloud Sect was in trouble or whether Protector Wu took action, he would have to pay a huge price to satisfy Protector Wu's appetite.

But through Yang Shan's intervention, all Yun Shan had to give up was that fragment! Wasn't this a huge profit?

Yang Shan was even more quick-witted than Yun Shan.

Now that Yun Shan is gone, the opportunity to save Yun Yun has arrived!

Yang Shan never intended to do anything to the Misty Cloud Sect.

He will only help Yun Yun and do whatever he wants to Yun Shan! The only person he needs to be wary of is Protector Wu.

Yang Shan had already started brainstorming, frantically thinking about how to get Protector Wu to turn a blind eye and let him rescue Yun Yun! Both men, each with their own ulterior motives, hit it off immediately! Yun Shan breathed a sigh of relief and took the initiative to bow to Yang Shan:

"Then everything depends on Mister E!"

Yang Shan: "It's fine, but I won't be staying in the Jia Ma Empire for very long, so if you're gone for too long, I won't wait for you!"

Yun Shan: "Don't worry, Mister E, I will definitely get back as soon as possible!"

After leaving the Secret Treasure Vault with Protector Wu and Yang Shan, Yun Shan bid them farewell.

He was about to leave Misty Cloud Sect in a low-key manner and needed to explain everything clearly.

Not only do we need to guard against other forces, but we also need to ensure that Yang Shan doesn't ruin the Misty Cloud Sect during this period!

Watching the Yun Shan fly away, Yang Shan joked:

"Sigh, Yun Shan is really a very busy person!"

Protector Wu smiled obsequiously, "Indeed, Yun Shan dreams of becoming someone like Misty Cloud Sect Yun Potian, the founder of the Yunlan Sect. Little does he know that Yun Potian was merely a Seven-Star Dou Zong back then, not even considered a quasi-first-rate figure in Central Plains. A frog in a well!"

Yang Shan: "It just so happens that Protector Wu has come out of seclusion. I have some things I would like to discuss with Protector Wu."

Protector Wu: "Hey! You flatter me, Mister E. Just tell me what you need, Little Wù do my best to get it done for you!"

Yang Shan was becoming increasingly satisfied with Protector Wu.

Having such a lackey by your side seems like a good thing.

If I have the chance, I'll really introduce Protector Wu to that Hun Dan.

Anyway, that Hun Dan is currently lacking his own team.

Yang Shan said:

"It was a spur-of-the-moment decision. A few days ago, when I was attacking a resource point, I met an interesting young man. I think his name was... what was it? Yang Shan?"

Protector Wu: "Si Yang Shan?"

Yang Shan: "You know him?"

Protector Wu: "I don't know him, but I've heard of him. He was the champion of the most recent Alchemist Convention. He overwhelmed everyone with his fifth-grade top-level pill, the Spirit Marrow Pill. I even wanted to collect his soul back then. The soul of Fifth Grade Alchemist is hard to find in this barren land of the Jia Ma Empire!"

Yang Shan: "."

Yang Shan really didn't expect that he had been targeted by Protector Wu so long ago!

Fortunately, he fled to the Black-Corner Region at that time.

If he continues to linger in the Jia Ma Empire, he might just get killed by the Protector Wu who's always "hunting" in the wild!

Yang Shan coughed twice. "That Yang Shan is not what he used to be. He has the demeanor of the strongest young person in the Jia Ma Empire! When I fought him, I could only barely suppress him."

Protector Wu immediately said fiercely, "Mister E! Yang Shan is just a One Star Dou Huang Little Wù Huang. I'll go down the mountain and capture him right now!"

Yang Shan: "."

As expected of someone from the Soul Hall, they resort to violence without hesitation at the slightest disagreement.

"Who told you to capture him? I was counting on Yang Shan to do something important!"

Yang Shan placed his hands behind his back:

"The Misty Cloud Sect is so powerful now, but other forces still choose to avoid it, simply because they can't put aside their past grievances and join forces to resist the Misty Cloud Sect. Yang Shan has good connections in the Jia Ma Empire and is a good pawn; we can use him!"

Protector Wu listened attentively.

Yang Shan then continued:

"When I fought Yang Shan last time, I heard Yang Shan say that if Yun Yun wasn't released, he would eventually lead his men to storm the Back Mountain Forbidden Ground!"

Protector Wu pondered:

"One Star Dou Huang forcibly broke into the Back Mountain Forbidden Ground the Misty Cloud Sect? Does he think the Dou Zong of Yun Shan are just for show? Is Yang Shan really that brave?"

Yang Shan smiled and said:

"We can't wait for him to be as brave as possible! Yun Yun is no longer on Yun Shan's side; keeping her here is just a waste of food!"

Protector Wu wholeheartedly agreed, "Little Wù also thinks that Yun Yun is useless. It would be better to kill her and extract her soul. The soul of a Dou Huang expert is worth at least ten Dou Wang!"

Yang Shan: "Kill? Little Wù, have you ever thought that releasing Yun Yun would be the best course of action!"

Protector Wu was somewhat puzzled. "Release her? Yun Yun is so stubborn. Even if you release her, it won't have any impact on the Misty Cloud Sect."

Yang Shan: "Yang Shan dared to venture into the Back Mountain Forbidden Ground for Yun Yun's sake. Do you think that after he rescued Yun Yun, Yun Yun would help Yang Shan out of gratitude for saving her life?"

Protector Wu's eyes lit up. "That's right! Yun Yun is stubborn and refuses to do anything for Yun Shan. Yang Shan is the most important ally of the Mittel Family. If she is willing to help Yang Shan, then Yun Shan will have another Dou Emperor- level enemy!"

Yang Shan: "That's right! The stronger the other forces are, the more likely they are to unite and fight against the Misty Cloud Sect! Where there is conflict, there will be casualties! If we keep fighting like this, when will we ever finish collecting all the souls? Do you, Protector Wu, plan to stay in this small place for thirty or fifty years?"

Protector Wu trembled. "This won't do!"

Yang Shan lowered his voice. "After Yun Shan leaves, you stay at the back mountain, and I'll go down the mountain to find Yang Shan, fight him, and also leak some information to lure him to the back mountain. Then we'll do this and that, and then this again."

The more Protector Wu, the more feasible the matter seemed to him.

"Mister E has a brilliant plan!"

Yang Shan: "Yun Yun ran away, but Yun Shan can't possibly say I didn't protect the Misty Cloud Sect! Hehehe!"

Protector Wu: "Now that those forces have joined forces, let's see if Yun Shan will fight or not! Hehehe!"

The two men's wicked laughter echoed in the Back Mountain Forbidden Ground.

Hearing this eerie laughter from halfway up the mountain, Yun Yun felt a chill run down her spine:

"Master, listen to this laughter! Can this be the laughter of a normal person? If you try to get something from a tiger, you'll end up being its food sooner or later!"

Three days later, Yun Shan and Pill King Gu He quietly left Misty Cloud Sect.

On the morning of the fourth day, Yang Shan, together with Nalan Yanran, infiltrated the Misty Cloud Sect.

Nalan Yanran was very familiar with the routes of Misty Cloud Mountain, and soon led Yang Shan through a hidden path to the back of the mountain.

The two quickly arrived at the mountainside.

Looking at Yun Yun, whose face was slightly pale due to a long period of not cultivating her Dou Qi qi, Nalan Yanran's eyes filled with tears. "Master."

The word "Master" left Yun Yun stunned.

"Yanran."

"Master, your disciple has come to save you!"

After undergoing trials at the Life and Death Gate, Nalan Yanran's potential has greatly increased, and she is now only half a step away from becoming Dou Emperor.

The formation that was restricting Yun Yun couldn't stop her at all!

Seeing Nalan Yanran draw her sword, Yun Yun cried out in alarm, "Yanran, no! This is the back mountain!"

Yang Shan, standing to the side, said seriously, "Senior Yun Yun, Yun Shan is not currently at the Misty Cloud Sect. That Protector Wu is in seclusion. As long as we are fast enough, we should be able to make it in time! This is the best opportunity. Once Yun Shan returns, you will truly be trapped here forever!"

Yun Yun: "No! You can't withstand a Dou Zong expert. Once Protector Wu discovers something, neither of you will escape!"

Seeing Yun Yun's resolute attitude, Nalan Yanran hesitated, and she cried out:

"Master."

Her beloved teacher was right in front of her, yet she couldn't save him, which tore at Nalan Yanran's heart.

Yun Yun forced a smile, "Yanran, be good! Yang Shan, take Yanran away quickly."

Yang Shan chuckled:

"Yun Yun, you can order Nalan Yanran, but you can't order me around!"

Yun Yun was horrified:

"Yang Shan! Don't do anything foolish!"

As soon as Yun Yun finished speaking, Yang Shan drew his sword.

This formation can only restrict Dou Ling; how could it withstand a single blow from Yang Shan?

The energy of the formation dimmed and disappeared in an instant.

Yang Shan stepped forward to help Yun Yun Yun up, examined the seal within her body, and sneered:

"Yun Shan is truly ruthless! He's even willing to use Space Power to seal his own disciple!"

Yang Shan picked up Yun Yun directly:

"Withdraw!"

Nalan Yanran never expected Yang Shan to be so decisive.

But things had come to this point, and there was no other way but to go down this dark path! Nalan Yanran didn't even notice that her master was quietly nestled in Yang Shan, and a touch of rosiness had appeared on her pale face.

Even her hands naturally wrapped around Yang Shan's neck.

Just as Yang Shan and Nalan Yanran took to the sky, the laughter of Protector Wu echoed from the back mountain, "Hehehe, two young upstarts, daring to come here to rescue people, truly ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth!"

The Dark Soul Mist protected the Protector Wu as he flew up from his secluded cultivation place.

Incredibly fast!

The blush on Yun Yun's face had long since vanished. "It's over."

"What's over? Miss Nalan, take Yun Yun and run! I'll hold them off here!"

Nalan Yanran's voice was out of tune:

"Young Master Yang! Let's go together!"

Yang Shan said calmly, "Don't be silly. It's better for one person to die than for all three to die. Besides, I might not even die."

Nalan Yanran: "No! We promised to save Master together and leave together!"

Yang Shan: "I lied to you. It's too late! Hurry up and run! I already said I might not die. Even if I do, you all have to live to help me get revenge!"

Upon hearing this, Nalan Yanran seemed to have lost her soul.

The person in her arms was her master, and the person in front of her was the peer she had the most affection for in her life so far.

Little did I expect that this trip would turn into a separation of life and death!

Nalan Yanran didn't say anything more, because if she continued, perhaps none of them would be able to leave!

Yun Yun remained silent, only watching Yang Shan's figure recede into the distance, and the terrifying aura emanating from Protector Wu.

"Yang Shan! I beg you, please come back alive. I'm begging you."

[Ding! You risked your life to give Yun Yun a chance to live, Yun Yun is heartbroken. Yun Yun's favorability towards you increases by 10. Current favorability: 62.]

[Ding! You risked your life to save Nalan Yanran, Nalan Yanran is now filled with remorse. Nalan Yanran's favorability towards you increases by 10. Current favorability: 50.]

Yang Shan did not turn around, the words of Yun Yun, who was sobbing uncontrollably, echoing in his ears.

Before them was the Palm Force condensed by Protector Wu using Dark Soul Mist!

Yang Shan took the blow head-on.

The Dou Qi Armor with over 100,000 points shattered instantly! Even the ribcage was cracked by the residual force! "That damn Little Wù really goes all out!"
