The Hun Clan's Recall
Gu Yuena accepted the Bodhisattva Great Recovery Pill with great excitement, and was about to force herself to continue serving Li Changqing.
Just then, the Black Flame pattern on the back of Li Changqing's left hand suddenly glowed, and at the same time, a burning sensation came over him.
Gu Yuena stopped what she was doing, looked at Li Changqing's left hand, and asked, "What is this?"
Li Changqing frowned, deep in thought.
This pattern is the Soul Imprint left by Hun Xuzi. The fact that it is reacting now proves that Hun Xuzi is calling him back.
Hun Xuzi summoned him back for only one purpose: to assist in completing the refinement of the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.
This proves that the Hun Tiandi has obtained the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.
Based on the original plot and the timeline, it seems to be about right.
Thinking of this, Li Changqing got up and dressed, saying to Gu Yuena, "Hun Xuzi is looking for me; I need to the Hun Clan."
Gu Yuena was taken aback and asked, "Then I..."
"I'm going to the Hun Clan on important business this time, and it's very dangerous. You won't be of much help by coming with me; you might even become a burden."
Gu Yuena felt somewhat disappointed after hearing this.
Li Changqing neither said he would come to find her later, nor did he ask her to wait at a specific location.
This means that after this separation, their relationship ends, and Gu Yuena no longer needs to serve Li Changqing.
Having followed Li Changqing for so long, the sudden separation left Gu Yuena still in a daze.
However, Gu Yuena quickly composed herself.
She is Gu Yuena, the mighty Silver Dragon King, the Co-Lord of Soul Beasts.
Although she had been a submissive woman by Li Changqing's side for several years, those few years were nothing compared to her long life.
Now that she has attained a sufficiently high level of cultivation, she can finally get rid of Li Changqing.
With this level of cultivation, she could easily make a name for herself in the Dou Qi Continent.
Thinking of this, Gu Yuena didn't say anything to persuade Li Changqing to stay; instead, she showed a relieved expression.
Seeing Gu Yuena's expression, Li Changqing raised an eyebrow slightly. He thought Gu Yuena would say something to persuade him to stay, but he didn't expect her to be so decisive.
But that's fine, it's better to part amicably. He doesn't plan to explain anything to Gu Yuena anyway, since there's no affection between them.
Moreover, deep down, he didn't feel he owed Gu Yuena anything.
In just a few years, Li Changqing elevated Gu Yuena, who had only recently broken through to the Dou Ancestor, to the Nine-Turn Dou Venerate realm and gave her the opportunity to break through to the Half-Saint.
If you can't even handle this, then you can't blame Li Changqing.
After getting dressed and leaving the secluded place, Li Changqing summoned the Amethyst Winged Lion King.
The Amethyst Winged Lion King looked at Li Changqing and Gu Yuena, whose aura had changed from ambiguous to intimate. Just a few days ago, they had been getting along very well, but now they seemed like strangers. He couldn't understand what had happened.
However, the Amethyst Winged Lion King didn't ask, since it wasn't his concern. Instead, he asked, "Master, what brings you here?"
Li Changqing said calmly, "From now on, you don't need to follow me anymore. Go do whatever you want."
The Amethyst Winged Lion King, thinking Li Changqing had abandoned him, burst into heart-wrenching sobs, as if he had suffered some immense injustice.
"Master! If I've done anything wrong, please tell me, and I'll definitely correct it. Please, please don't abandon me!"
Li Changqing's face darkened, and he took out a Jade Bottle, handing it to the Amethyst Winged Lion King:
"It's not that I don't want you, it's that I need to return to the Hun Clan, and what I'm about to do is extremely dangerous."
The Amethyst Winged Lion King's expression turned serious, and he immediately said, "No matter how dangerous it is, I will definitely follow my master. Even if my master asks me to go through fire and water, I will not hesitate."
He spoke with such righteous indignation that if Li Changqing hadn't known the Amethyst Winged Lion King's character, he might have actually believed him.
Li Changqing suddenly laughed and said, "Great! I'm going to wreak havoc on the Hun Clan and face an attack from the entire Hun Clan."
"You've probably heard a little about the Hun Clan's strength, but that's only on the surface. The Hun Clan's true strength is far greater than you imagine. If you'd like to come along, I wouldn't mind taking you."
The Amethyst Winged Lion King was startled, his face froze, and he was so embarrassed that he wanted to disappear. He chuckled awkwardly:
"Then I'd better not go. Of course, it's not that I'm afraid of death, but that I might hold you back if I go."
Li Changqing shook his head, chuckled, and pointed to the Jade Bottle in front of the Amethyst Winged Lion King:
"This contains the Bodhisattva Great Recovery Pill, which can help you break through to the Half-Saint. Also, your son should be in the Starfall Pavilion; go find him if you wish. You no longer need to be my mount."
After saying that, Li Changqing tore through the Void and left, heading towards the location of the Hun Clan.
After glancing at the Amethyst Winged Lion King, Gu Yuena tore through the Void and left, leaving the Amethyst Winged Lion King bewildered in the already ruined Mountain Range.
The Amethyst Winged Lion King was completely bewildered. Li Changqing and Gu Yuena left so decisively, without even saying goodbye, and he felt a sense of loss.
However, when he looked at the Bodhisattva Great Recovery Pill in front of him, his disappointment vanished instantly, replaced by joy.
He initially served as Li Changqing's mount, only hoping to break through to the Dou Ancestor. Unexpectedly, he broke through to the Dou Zun in a short time, and now he even has the opportunity to break through to the Half-Saint level.
Having served as Li Changqing's mount for just over a decade without encountering any danger, his life was remarkably easy. In return, he gained the opportunity to break through to the Half-Saint realm, a reward that was already quite substantial.
With that thought in mind, the Amethyst Winged Lion King accepted the Bodhisattva Great Recovery Pill, then tore through the Void and flew towards the location of the Central Plains Starfall Pavilion.
He couldn't wait to see his son, whom he hadn't seen for over a decade.
It took Li Changqing about seven days to finally reach a place only a few hundred miles from the entrance of the Hall of Souls.
With Li Changqing's cultivation at the Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng, he should have been able to reach the Soul World Entrance very quickly.
But there was no other way; he still had Hun Xuzi's Soul Imprint on his hand. If he flew too fast, it would easily arouse suspicion, so he could only fly at the speed of One-Star Dou Sheng.
Having traveled for so many years, my cultivation level has improved considerably.
As he approached the Soul World Entrance, he could no longer sense Soul World location, even though he was originally at the peak of the Peak Nine-Star Dou Sheng.
Moreover, he also detected the auras of many powerful individuals nearby, who seemed to be searching for something.
Li Changqing quickly recalled that if the Hun Tiandi had obtained the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill, then the Soul World had probably already gone into hiding.
Those powerful figures were likely from other ancient families; they didn't want the Hun Tiandi to successfully refine the Emperor Grade Embryonic Pill.
Just as Li Changqing was wondering how to enter the Soul World, the Soul Imprint on the back of his hand lit up again, guiding him to a location thousands of Thousand Miles away.
Li Changqing smiled and flew towards the place indicated by the mark.
