Hundred Chi Gate, Qing Yun Peak!
According to Thaling's instructions, Yu Haoran, who was standing on a flood dragon formed by his elemental energy, quickly arrived in front of the Imperial Guard Commander who was standing in the air above Qing Yun Peak.
"Imperial Guard Deputy Commander Qin Lei greets Master Fu Ma!"
Using the spirit object formed by his elemental energy to assist him in flying, he did not show any signs of lacking in elemental energy.
This meant that Yu Haoran's strength was far more than ten times, or even more than ten times, of his cultivation level.
Generally, people who had this kind of ability were at least monstrous in talent and potential.
Thinking of those people in Xianyang City who thought that Yu Haoran was not worthy of Princess Ling Fei, Qin Lei could not help but sneer in his heart.
His Majesty, who was ambitious and had reached the level of Martial Revered, had never made a mistake.
Since he took the initiative to betroth Princess Ling Fei to Yu Haoran, he must have taken a fancy to Yu Haoran, other than his talent in alchemy, other outstanding qualities.
Now, looking at Yu Haoran, who was standing in the air in front of him on the flood dragon formed by his elemental energy, Qin Lei was filled with admiration and hurriedly knelt down on one knee to pay his respects.
"Commander Qin Lei, why are you not in Xianyang City to protect the imperial capital? Why are you here?"
Qin Lei's respectful attitude was not an act. Yu Haoran could feel this, so he immediately asked after relaxing his high vigilance.
"Prince Fu Ma, it's like this …!"
Then, Qin Lei told him in detail that after he secretly left Xianyang City, Chief Steward Jiang had received news that someone was hunting him down through special channels, and Emperor Qin's orders.
After hearing Qin Lei's explanation, Yu Haoran could not help but change his expression.
The fact that he was being hunted down could not be hidden from those who were observant. He already knew this before he took action.
But what he did not expect was that Emperor Qin already knew about it so quickly.
What was even more frightening was that not only did he know that he was being hunted down, he also knew who his pursuers were and the exact location of their final battle. This made him uncontrollably worried, worried that he might expose Meng Sheng's existence.
"Commander Qin, other than Jiang Yan and Feng Yun from the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, Zhang Yongbo from the Qingcheng Sect, and Lu Gan from the Lu Family, is there anyone else who wants to kill me?" Yu Haoran probed.
Shaking his head, Qin Lei said.
"According to Chief Jiang's investigation, it seems like only these people are after you."
After hearing Qin Lei's reply, Yu Haoran secretly heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time, his urge to break through to the Martial Ancestor Realm grew even stronger.
Only by breaking through to the Martial Ancestor Realm and cultivating that set of secret techniques while condensing his Spirit would he be able to protect his life while exposing Meng Sheng and provoking a quasi-Martial Revered expert.
Therefore, Yu Haoran forcefully suppressed the urgency in his heart and said to Qin Lei with a smile.
"Commander Qin, perhaps I, Yu Haoran, was lucky. Before I left Xianyang City, I accidentally learned from Senior Xiang that there was a Prunella Grass in the Lianyun Mountain Range that could assist in refining the Soul Refining Pill."
"Therefore, after leaving Xianyang City, I did not immediately return to the sect by the original route. Instead, I went to the Lianyun Mountain Range and did not encounter Jiang Yan and the others who wanted to kill me."
"I see!"
After hearing Yu Haoran's explanation, Qin Lei finally understood why there were no corpses of Jiang Yan and the others in the dense forest, nor were there any traces of a battle.
It turned out that Yu Haoran and Jiang Yan did not encounter them.
"Prince Consort, since you're fine, I'll return to Xianyang City to report!" Qin Lei asked for instructions.
"I won't see you off!" Yu Haoran smiled and nodded as he watched Qin Lei leave.
After Qin Lei's figure had completely disappeared, Yu Haoran controlled the flood dragon to return to Qingyun Peak with a gloomy expression.
"Yu Haoran, if you really can't do it, it's best that you leave the Hundred Chi Gate now and leave the Emperor Qin's Kingdom's sphere of influence."
Seeing Yu Haoran's gloomy expression and the heaviness in his aura, Thaling knew what he was worried about.
At the same time, Thaling was worried that Meng Sheng's matter would be exposed and cause the Meng Clan and the quasi-Martial Revered expert of the Meng Clan to take revenge.
"As long as you leave the Emperor Qin's Kingdom's sphere of influence, with the help of my Divine Sense, even a Martial Revered expert would not be able to track you down."
"Thaling, the situation is not so serious that I have to run for my life. I don't need to leave the sect for the time being."
Shaking his head, Yu Haoran walked towards the Hidden Moon Pavilion while replying.
"Furthermore, I haven't removed the Seven Insects Seven Flowers Poison from Master's body, nor have I arranged a way out for my Senior Brothers and Junior Brothers. I can't leave the sect right now."
After hearing Yu Haoran's reason for not leaving the sect for the time being, Thaling knew that even if he continued to persuade him, he would not listen to his advice.
Therefore, Thaling could only think about how to temporarily withstand the attack of the quasi-Martial Revered Old Ancestor of the Meng Clan in case the matter of capturing Meng Sheng was exposed. He also had to think about how to help Yu Haoran escape the Hundred Chi Gate in the shortest time possible when he was in danger.
"Yu Haoran, I need to refine a magic tool with all my strength. If there's nothing urgent, try not to disturb me."
"I understand!"
Although Thaling did not explain why he suddenly wanted to refine a magic tool, Yu Haoran could guess that he was preparing it for him. Feeling grateful, he could only nod in agreement.
"Ninth Junior Brother, you really came back!"
Just as Yu Haoran stepped into the Hidden Moon Pavilion, he suddenly heard Second Senior Brother Liu Guangwei's voice.
"Senior Brothers, Junior Brother Gongsun, Yu Ting, why are you all here?" Seeing his Senior Brothers standing in front of the Hidden Moon Pavilion, as well as the Gongsun siblings, Yu Haoran forced a smile and greeted them.
"Ninth Junior Brother, just now your Eighth Senior Brother unexpectedly felt the fluctuation of Origin Energy transforming into a martial skill. He guessed that you might have come back early, so he called us over." Second Senior Brother explained with a smile.
Nodding his head, Yu Haoran knew that it was because he was in a hurry to see Qin Lei, so he did not deliberately restrain the energy fluctuation produced when his Origin Energy transformed into a flood dragon. In the end, it attracted Lin Xuan's attention and alerted him.
"Ninth Junior Brother, didn't you represent the sect in the Qin Alliance Conference in Xianyang City? Why did you suddenly come back?"
Huang Zonghua, who had been in charge of helping Chu Zhongyu with sect affairs, had heard Chu Zhongyu mention the time of the Qin Alliance Conference. He knew that this time should be when the Qin Alliance Conference was in the process of being held.
Therefore, he was a little confused about Yu Haoran's sudden early return to Qingyun Peak.
"Fifth Senior Brother, due to some coincidental events, before the Qin Alliance Conference, I was summoned to the palace by the Emperor Qin. We had a friendly discussion about the Hundred Chi Gate and the alliance of the Emperor Qin Kingdom."
"As for the specific details of the discussion, when the Peak Master and Gong Yuyuan return, they will report it to Eldest Senior Brother in detail. At that time, you will know the reason why I came back early!"
Although he really wanted to tell his relatives in front of him about some of his important experiences in Xianyang City, the pressure from the Meng Clan behind Meng Sheng made him want to break through to the Martial Ancestor Realm as soon as possible.
