Located in the Western Domain, Green Dragon Mountain was a massive mountain range that spanned over five thousand kilometres.
Its main peak was known as Dragon Peak, located at the southern foothills of the Green Dragon Mountain Range. It was also where Green Dragon Mountain, one of the Four Clans of the Floating Life World, was located.
While Green Dragon Mountain was far from the Jade Ridge Snowy Mountains, with the speed of Su Yun and the others, they still arrived very quickly.
However, when those of Green Dragon Mountain saw Su Yun, they could not help but frown.
"Chief Su, may I ask where the other esteemed guest is?" The one welcoming them was an old man dressed in a green robe with dragon patterns embroidered on it. He was a Grand Elder of Green Dragon Mountain.
Su Yun asked instead of answering, "Is Chief Luo here?"
That green-robed old man frowned, but still answered, "Chief is currently in the great hall. It is just that …"
Su Yun said, "After seeing Chief Luo, I naturally have something to say. Elder Tong, come along as well."
After a moment of silence, that green-robed Elder surnamed Tong led Su Yun towards Dragon Peak.
Arriving at Dragon Peak and entering the conference hall of Green Dragon Mountain, they saw a tall, mighty middle-aged man seated at the centre, many people seated around him.
Sweeping her gaze over, Su Yun discovered that most of the higher echelon experts and longtime Elders of Green Dragon Mountain were already present.
The middle-aged man seated there was the current Chief of Green Dragon Mountain, Luo Jinghao. He was the youngest of the Four Chiefs, but his cultivation base was such that no one of the Floating Life World dared to underestimate him.
Luo Jinghao watched calmly as Elder Tong and Su Yun entered together.
Beside him, a hale and hearty old man spoke, his voice like a great bell, "Chief Su, why are you alone? This old man remembers that you are not the only guest that our clan has invited. "
Su Yun said mildly, "My Young Master is weary from his journey and wishes to rest first. I hope that Chief Luo and fellow Elders will forgive him."
Noticing how Su Yun addressed Yan Zhaoge, the people of Green Dragon Mountain exchanged looks.
Chief Luo Jinghao did not speak. That hale and hearty old man's brows instantly knit together as he snorted coldly, "How arrogant!"
"Could it be that you think that sweeping through a tiny Furan Kingdom is such an incredible thing?"
This old man said coldly, "Let me ask you, how many people here cannot destroy a tiny Furan Kingdom all by themselves?"
Su Yun's expression was calm. "Elder Qi, what are you saying? Since it's an invitation, the guest will naturally be grateful for the host's hospitality, but there's also the possibility of not being able to come. It's true that a guest should follow the host's lead, but if someone is forced to be a guest, then this matter will naturally change. "
Elder Qi snorted coldly, "As a guest, you should have the awareness of being a guest. Chief Su, do not forget that the West Domain, the Jade Ridge Snowy Mountains included, is still the territory of my Green Dragon Mountain at the end of the day."
"Sect Leader Su should also be well aware of the attitude other places in the Floating Life World have towards you qi cultivators. The world is vast, but how many places are there that are suitable for you?"
Su Yun's tone was indifferent, "What, Elder Qi wants to drive my Snow Crane Sect out of the West Domain?"
Elder Tong raised his hand to stop Elder Qi. He sighed and said, "Sect Master Su is being too serious. That's not what Senior Brother Qi meant."
Su Yun calmly said, "If that's what you mean, then there's no harm."
Elder Qi said coldly, "How leisurely, causing trouble in the territory of the Blood Cloud Clan, fleeing all the way west to the territory of my clan to seek refuge."
"If not for borrowing the power of my clan to intimidate the Blood Cloud Clan, I wonder if that so-called Young Master of yours would still be as leisurely as he is now?"
"I do want Chief Su to know one thing. The Chief of the Blood Cloud Clan, Lu Ming, has personally come out, leading the experts of his clan to the West Domain."
Su Yun's expression did not change in the slightest, "So, what does Elder Qi mean? If the Blood Cloud Clan comes asking for him, your clan will just hand him over to them? "
The Chief of Green Dragon Mountain, Luo Jinghao, now finally opened his mouth, "Junior Sister Su, there's no need to goad me. My clan and the Blood Cloud Clan have been at war for more than a year or two, neither of us being afraid of the other."
"However, Lu Ming having personally come out, this means that he definitely won't let this matter rest."
"My clan does not fear a battle with the Blood Cloud Clan. However, there is no need for us to go into an all-out war with the Blood Cloud Clan of the Four Clans over an unrelated person. In the great battle, those who bleed and die will all be of my clan."
He looked calmly at Su Yun, "If it was you, Shen Nuo, or the Snow Crane Sect who offended the Blood Cloud Clan, I would have no objections. Since my clan is the ruler of all the powers of the West Domain, we will not allow the West Domain to be encroached upon by others. Moreover, our clan and the Blood Cloud Clan already have old enmity in the first place. At most, it would just be a battle."
"However, from what I know, the one who caused trouble this time is not someone of your Snow Crane Sect."
Luo Jinghao's voice was neither fast nor slow, "Whatever you call him, it does not change the fact that he is an outsider who has nothing to do with my clan."
Looking at Luo Jinghao, Su Yun nodded, "In all fairness, your way of thinking is not completely without reason. Whether it is Chief Luo or Elder Qi as well as the other Elders seated here, all of you must first consider the pros and cons of Green Dragon Mountain."
"Still, aren't you looking at the problem a little too shallow?"
Su Yun said mildly, "I'll say it clearly. Young Master is the son of my Lady's first wife. All of my, Su Yun's, skills have all been imparted to me by my Lady. You can all think for yourselves what sort of person my Lady is."
"To Green Dragon Mountain, is it still not valuable enough to form such a good relationship with her? My Lady has always been someone who distinguishes kindness and enmity clearly. "
"While my Lady is no longer involved in the mundane world now, since Young Master has reentered it, it is already sufficient to explain many problems."
Hearing her words, Luo Jinghao said calmly, "The Master of Jade Crane is an otherworldly expert of legend. This Luo has always looked up to her greatly. Being able to form a good relationship with her is naturally a good thing."
"However, whether your Master disdained to do so that year or was powerless to do so, the final result is that other than you, Chief Su, she did not leave behind any traces in this world."
Hearing his words, Su Yun's gaze sharpened somewhat.
Luo Jinghao's expression was calm as ever as he said mildly, "Your Master and disciple lineage are both qi cultivators. Indeed, with Chief Su's help all these years, it is not that my Green Dragon Mountain has not gained anything. However, at the end of the day, we are all demonic bloodline cultivators, and the Floating Life World is the world of demonic bloodline cultivators."
Su Yun knit her brows slightly, "Chief Luo, there is something in your words. Please make it clear."
Beside Luo Jinghao, Elder Qi also calmed his emotions at this moment as he said, "That Pixiu."
Hearing his words, Su Yun's gaze instantly turned cold.
Elder Tong said, "Chief Su, do not misunderstand. My clan does not request for the Pixiu to change owners. Still, it should not be difficult for you to provide us with some Pixiu essence blood."
Elder Qi said indifferently, "Chief Su said earlier that there is no logic in forcing others to be guests. Thinking about it carefully, this old man feels that you are indeed right. Then, that Young Master of yours also has no logic in forcing my clan to help him, right?"
Su Yun's face was expressionless, "These words are naturally not wrong. It is just that if my Young Master does not agree, will your clan put aside our former enmity with the Blood Cloud Clan and join hands for once?"
Luo Jinghao answered calmly, yet resolutely, "No."
"That is to say, just watching from the sidelines?" Su Yun suddenly smiled, "While I feel regretful for your clan's shortsightedness, it is still a pretty good result."
Hearing her words, Luo Jinghao and the others all frowned, not understanding what she meant.
Now, someone suddenly reported, "Chief, the Chief of the Blood Cloud Clan, Lu Ming, has arrived in the West Domain. Our clan's Elder who went to negotiate with him was slain by him on the spot!"
Everyone was in an uproar, first shocked and enraged, then puzzled, "How can the Blood Cloud Clan be so arrogant and despotic?"
Green Dragon Mountain was not willing to lightly start an all-out war with the Blood Cloud Clan. Normally speaking, wouldn't the Blood Cloud Clan be the same as well?
Immediately afterwards, another person came to report, "Abnormalities have been discovered in the north and east respectively from the Blazing Fire Clan and the Thunder Rumbling Clan. It seems that a large number of experts have left their mountains, rushing towards our West Domain!"
The Blazing Fire Clan and the Thunder Rumbling Clan were the other two great clans of the Four Clans alongside Green Dragon Mountain and the Blood Cloud Clan.
While their earlier doubts had been resolved, the hearts of those of Green Dragon Mountain grew increasingly heavy. (To be continued.)
