Cloud Pavilion Mountain Profound Remnant Monastery.
This was where the dao arena of the Northern Exalt of the World beyond Worlds' Ten Exalts was located.
Having arrived here, Yan Zhaoge did not go to Profound Remnant Locale. Instead, he came to a town built by the side of the mountain outside Cloud Pavilion Mountain.
Their Broad Creed Mountain was openly at odds with Kunlun Mountain's Southern High Peak's Qilin Cliff. Now that they had come to the north and directly paid a visit, they would inevitably be suspected of forcing them to take sides.
When the World beyond Worlds had been searching for Xue Chuqing previously, the Northern Exalt had restricted his disciples from staying outside. Whether it was Xue Chuqing or Yan Zhaoge, they had both been moved by this.
Therefore, Yan Zhaoge did not force him to do anything.
Since the Northern Exalt wanted to remain aloof from the world and not involve himself in any conflict, Yan Zhaoge would grant him his wish.
However, Yan Zhaoge believed that the other party would return the favor.
From what had happened to Xue Chuqing over the past few years, the Northern Exalt had more or less felt sympathy and praise towards the Dim Radiant Emperor.
Although he did not ascend the Cloud Pavilion Mountain this time, as the ruler of the north, the Profound Remnant Monastery would definitely receive the news soon.
The Northern Exalt's reaction would be known soon enough.
Coming to that small town, Yan Zhaoge calmly looked at the people coming and going.
This was a place that Feng Yunsheng had once visited. Yan Zhaoge looked quietly at the scenery and the flow of people within the city, rather spellbound.
Not long after, he regained his senses and turned around with a faint smile. A young girl in yellow entered his sight.
It was precisely Profound Remnant Locale's disciple Guan Yuluo, who was also the granddaughter of the Northern Exalt, Daoist Wuting, Guan Ke.
"Long time no see, Miss Guan." Yan Zhaoge smiled as he greeted her.
As she neared, Guan Yuluo first appraised Yan Zhaoge curiously, as though she was seeing him for the first time.
"This isn't the first time you've used such a gaze to appraise me," Yan Zhaoge smiled.
"Every time I see you, I feel like I've never really known you before." Guan Yuluo blinked her eyes and said, "Banxian, you … you really did … did Elder Wang of Qilin Cliff …"
Yan Zhaoge nodded calmly, "That's right, I did it."
Guan Yuluo's eyes were still filled with disbelief.
"Alright, is there any news of Yunsheng?" Yan Zhaoge first asked.
The reason Guan Yuluo had appeared was that she had long since become acquainted with Yan Zhaoge because of Feng Yunsheng.
While in the current environment, someone from Profound Remnant Locale coming out to meet Yan Zhaoge was a problem in the eyes of others, there was still some leeway in the end, causing others to have some reservations as they were unwilling to directly fall out with him.
"There's no news about Sister Feng." Guan Yuluo's mood suddenly dropped.
She also missed Feng Yunsheng very much.
It was just that in front of Yan Zhaoge, she was more restrained, because she felt that as compared to herself, Yan Zhaoge would probably feel even worse.
Yan Zhaoge's expression was calm as he consoled her, "Yunsheng will be blessed by the heavens."
"En, yes, but it's a pity that grandfather can't calculate Sister Feng's current situation." Guan Yuluo sighed before pulling herself together and looking solemnly at Yan Zhaoge, she said softly, "Before I left, grandfather said something."
"He's here, but I don't know where he is."
It sounded like a sentence without any head or tail, but Yan Zhaoge instantly understood its meaning.
The Northern Exalt looked old and frail, as if his neck had already been buried in the ground as he might pass away at any moment.
But actually, he had a sharp mind and could see through many things clearly.
The Broad Creed Mountain and the Kunlun Mountain's Southern High Peak's Qilin Cliff were officially enemies. Although they had the Sword Sovereign behind them, facing both the Earthly Sovereign and the Concealed Sovereign at the same time, they would definitely be under a lot of pressure.
Yan Zhaoge and the others definitely had to think of a plan.
The Roving Jade Heavens' Profound Sovereign and the Dragon Spring Emperor's lineage might be able to help them.
However, they couldn't do it unless they had no other choice.
If the Roving Jade Heavens were involved in the internal affairs of the World beyond Worlds, the nature would completely change.
Even the Sword Sovereign might not be willing to do so.
Although he could get along well with the Profound Sovereign and the Dragon Spring Emperor, he had an extremely bad relationship with the other peak experts of the Roving Jade Heavens. It could even be said that their enmity was as deep as the sea.
If they didn't look for external help, and wanted to look for a powerful helper within the World beyond Worlds, there was only one best choice for Yan Zhaoge and the others.
Before the Sword Sovereign, the Astro Sovereign of the Three Sovereigns!
He was also the Exalted Water Luminary of the Kunlun Nine Luminaries in the past. He had a close relationship with Yan Zhaoge's grandfather, the Exalted Gold Luminary – Yan Xintang.
In recent years, many people in the World beyond Worlds had gradually forgotten about the Astro Sovereign, but the Northern Exalt wouldn't.
The Northern Exalt knew about the disappearance of the Astro Sovereign.
As one of the oldest and most experienced Exalts of the Ten Exalts, the Northern Exalt had experienced the era of the Astro Sovereign. He also knew that the Astro Sovereign had disappeared in the snowfield in the north.
As the lord of the Northern Profound Heaven Territory, he naturally knew more than the other Exalts.
However, that was all he knew.
As for the specific reasons and details of the Astro Sovereign's disappearance, he didn't know much.
That was why there was a saying that the Astro Sovereign was here, but no one knew where he was.
For Yan Zhaoge, this was certainly not enough for him to find the Astro Sovereign. However, he also understood the deeper meaning of the Northern Exalt.
The disappearance of the Astro Sovereign might really be related to the Nine Underworlds.
In the World beyond Worlds, only the Three Sovereigns, the Female Emperor and the dead Wang Zhengcheng might know the details.
Not to mention the other Exalts, even the Encompassing Emperor and the Heaven Emperor might not know the details.
The reason why the Northern Exalt knew some clues was that he was guarding the Northern Profound Heaven Territory.
"That's a good thing. I don't know the details, and others don't know the details either." Yan Zhaoge thought, "Even if they know that I will go to the Astro Sovereign for help, they can't stop me."
The Earthly Sovereign hadn't returned, the Concealed Sovereign was in seclusion, and Wang Zhengcheng, the only one who could play a role, had already been killed by Yan Zhaoge.
The only uncertain factor left was the Upper Exalt, Chen Qianhua, who had the Origin Heavenly Scripture and could see the past and the future.
However, the Brocade Emperor couldn't compare with Astro Sovereign in terms of cultivation. Chen Qianhua wanted to figure out the things about the Astro Sovereign, but he couldn't gain much from it.
Even if he knew the existence of Chu Lili from Wang Zhengcheng and started to work on her, he still needed to rest in a short period of time after being wounded by Yan Di's saber.
Yan Zhaoge had time to find the Astro Sovereign.
What worried him was that Female Emperor Jie Mingkong wouldn't suddenly fall out with him, would she?
After saying goodbye to Guan Yuluo, Yan Zhaoge left the small town and continued to the north. He stepped into the world of ice and snow in the north again.
Walking in the wind and snow, red light flashed in Yan Zhaoge's eyes.
The sharp red light vaguely spurted out from his eyes and cut the void.
Yan Zhaoge looked over and saw that in the world of ice and snow in front of him, there were many black lines, some far, some near, some sparse, some dense.
Every black line was actually a crack in the spatial domain.
However, these cracks were not stable. They were in the state of alternating between cracking and healing. So they were not the real space passageways or the wounds of the sky.
However, how could he find the Astro Sovereign?
The reason why he looked for Feng Yunsheng was that the Northern Exalt had demarcated a limited area in advance to search for the Astro Sovereign.
However, if he looked for the Astro Sovereign one by one, it would take him decades or even hundreds of years.
