As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Changheng, seated inside the hall built entirely of green jade atop the Green Jade Gate's main peak, abruptly released his mana. His figure flickered hazily, and he vanished from the hall.
Without a trace.
"Senior-"
Guan Sheng froze at the sight of what had happened in the blink of an eye.
"That old-True Lord Greedy Wolf has arrived. He tried to do something on the sly, but Senior Ten Thousand Longevity discovered him. Senior should have intercepted him by now."
Yu Susu's expression grew grave. Drawing on what she knew, she instantly reached a conclusion and transmitted her voice solemnly.
She swallowed the words "old dog Greedy Wolf" before they escaped, worried that he might hear them as well and later take his resentment out on the Green Jade Gate's disciples.
So she refrained from indulging her tongue.
"On the sly-True Lord Greedy Wolf's main targets are quite clear: you, Sect Leader, and Martial Uncle Wind-Piercer. Since he hasn't come looking for you, he must have gone after Martial Uncle Wind-Piercer. Does that mean they're at the Wind Cave now?"
Guan Sheng had reached his cultivation and position through an exceptionally meticulous mind. He filled in the remaining deductions, then transmitted his voice anxiously. "I wonder whether those two will fight on the island. The stray shock waves from a battle between Nascent Soul True Lords would be enough to sweep across this island and utterly destroy it-Sect Leader, should we go take a look?"
"Yes! But we'll keep our distance and watch from afar. Send orders for every disciple to withdraw to the island's edges immediately, in case anything unexpected happens. The likelihood is low, though. He would risk violating the Azure Sea Alliance, and True Lord Greedy Wolf isn't a fool."
