Xu Qingtong brought Fang Tianqi back to Cloudsky Peak and briefly informed Du Siwen, Zhuang Shengren, and the others of what the Sect Leader and the Witch Clan's Grand Elder had agreed upon.
"Senior Sister, Shengren, I'll leave my incarnation here while my main body goes to Gloomwind Valley. Once the Grand Elder brings his people over, I'll return! Shengren, give me the Golden Core Puppet first!"
Du Siwen frowned at his words. "Qingtong, I'm worried about you going to Gloomwind Valley alone. What if..."
Xu Qingtong waved his hand. "Don't worry, Senior Sister. I still have Xiao Qi and Xiao Bai, plus two Golden Core Puppets. There shouldn't be any danger!"
With that, he separated out his incarnation and handed it his Storage Ring, while his main body kept the Seven-Star Bracelet.
"Sect Leader, let's go!"
After his main body left, Xu Qingtong's incarnation arranged Cloudsky Peak's defenses with Du Siwen and Zhuang Shengren, then went to the Back Mountain.
Xu Qingtong's main body piloted the Dust-Exterminating Boat with Fang Tianqi aboard, arriving before Gloomwind Valley's mountain gate in just a quarter of an hour.
After disembarking from the Flying Boat, Xu Qingtong summoned Xizi and instructed, "Xizi, patrol diligently around the mountain gate. If anything unusual happens, send me a voice transmission immediately!"
Leaving Xizi behind, Xu Qingtong followed Fang Tianqi back to Gloomwind Valley's Council Hall.
"Sect Leader, notify all Foundation Establishment Realm disciples in the valley to enter combat readiness and prepare to fight at any moment!" Xu Qingtong told Fang Tianqi.
"All right! I'll make the arrangements now!"
Xu Qingtong also called Xiao Qi out and told her to roam around the valley. If she encountered anyone carrying yin energy, she was to seize them directly.
