At that time, the Spirit Jade Palace had been attacked by the Twelve Palaces and even though the entire Middle Realm was so vast, there was no place for them to stay. It was only until they were pursued to the foot of Mount Fu Yao that they had no choice but to barge into the mountains.
Mount Fu Yao had its own rules. Without permission, even the leaders of the Nine Temples and Twelve Palaces were not allowed to enter. But at that time, the Spirit Jade Palace was already at a dead end and in order to survive, they had no choice but to force their way in. The pursuers from the Twelve Palaces were fearful of the might of the Cloudy Brook Academy and they had no choice but to retreat. The people from the Spirit Jade Palace hid within the mountain for several days, thinking that they would be chased out by the Cloudy Brook Academy. Never would they have thought that the Cloudy Brook Academy's Headmaster would suddenly appear and not only did he not chase them out, he had instead allowed them to borrow a cave within Mount Fu Yao to hide.
It was also from that time onwards that the Spirit Jade Palace settled down within Mount Fu Yao. Because of the Cloudy Brook Academy's awe-inspiring might, even if the people from the Twelve Palaces suspected that the Spirit Jade Palace had never left, they did not dare to barge in.
It could be said that the Cloudy Brook Academy owed the Spirit Jade Palace a great debt of gratitude and if not for the fact that the Headmaster of the Cloudy Brook Academy had taken them in, they would have all died under the pursuit of the Twelve Palaces.
The woman had never heard of any of this before, and her eyes were filled with astonishment.
"On that day, when the Cloudy Brook Academy closed itself, I felt that something was amiss. I had thought that they would be able to escape, but I had not expected ….." The Spirit Jade Palace Lord said with a slight frown. In Mount Fu Yao, it was all thanks to the aid of the Cloudy Brook Academy's Headmaster that they had been able to get through the most difficult period of their lives. At that time, the Cloudy Brook Academy's Headmaster would often go to the Spirit Jade Palace for a chat and it was not much of anything else. It was also because of this debt of gratitude that even though the Spirit Jade Palace Lord was always resistant towards men, he still chatted happily with the Headmaster. And in their constant conversations, the Spirit Jade Palace Lord could faintly sense that the Headmaster seemed to be hiding from some kind of power, but as to who exactly it was, he did not know.
"How could it be the Nine Temples?" The Spirit Jade Palace Lord was a little puzzled.
Initially, before the Spirit Jade Palace had fallen into dire straits, they had come into contact with the Nine Temples. The Nine Temples were highly respectful towards the Cloudy Brook Academy, just like the Twelve Palaces, never dared to defy the will of the Cloudy Brook Academy. But all of a sudden, how did things change?
"This doesn't seem like the Nine Temples' way of doing things. If I'm not wrong, someone must have secretly instructed them." The Spirit Jade Palace Lord said cautiously.
"Your Highness … What should we do? Miss Jun and the Cloudy Brook Academy are our benefactors and we cannot just sit back and do nothing about it! "The girl said anxiously.
The Spirit Jade Palace Lord was silent for a long while. After a long while, he raised his head and looked at the girl whose eyes were filled with anxiety. "You, are you afraid of death?"
The woman was slightly stunned and immediately said, "I'm not afraid of death!"
The Spirit Jade Palace Lord suddenly laughed out loud.
"Not bad. As expected of a disciple of our Spirit Jade Palace."
"Your Highness …"
The Spirit Jade Palace Lord stood up and put on his outer robe.
"Go invite Granny Yue here. Our Spirit Jade Palace has been dormant for a thousand years and the entire Middle Realm thinks that our Spirit Jade Palace has lost its backbone. It's about time that we let them know what kind of a bunch of people the Spirit Jade Palace is made of."
A hint of joy appeared in the woman's eyes, and she immediately kowtowed to express her gratitude. She did not linger for even a moment longer before she went to invite Granny Yue.
Granny Yue and the masked girl had already heard everything that had happened on their way here. When she saw the Spirit Jade Palace Lord, her hunched back stopped slightly, one hand clasped behind her back, the other holding the walking stick, her eyes sparkling as she looked at the Spirit Jade Palace Lord.
"Your Highness, have you decided?"
