Unraveling the secret of the poison storage space in a single night was probably Han Yunxi's greatest gain from her trip to the poison storage space.
She hadn't seriously considered whether there were other direct descendants of the Poison Sect in this world, or whether there was someone else who carried such a powerful space with them.
The first person she thought of was Jun Yi Xie!
Once she cultivated to the second level, she'd definitely be able to beat Jun Yixie into a sorry state and leave him dumbfounded!
Why did Han Yunxi think of Jun Yi Xie first? Because of personal grudges, and because Jun Yi Xie was the most arrogant person in the poison world.
Seeing that the sky was still dark, Han Yunxi hurriedly sat down to meditate and cultivate. At the same time, Long Fei Ye was lying on the roof, staring blankly at the sky.
His gaze was deep and solemn. He'd been pondering the entire night. Perhaps it was the Witch Aunt's words about the Nether Clan's nobility, or perhaps it was Gu's words, or perhaps it was the inexplicable fire that had been extinguished.
Or perhaps it wasn't because of any of these things. He was simply pondering how to deal with the Chu Clan and how to disrupt Western Zhou's peace.
Long Feiye's handsome brows were locked in a serious and solemn manner, making him seem even colder than before. It was impossible to offend him or guess his thoughts.
Suddenly, a figure leapt onto the roof. It was none other than Tang Li.
He carried two jugs of wine over and tossed one to Long Fei Ye. "Big Bro, drink with me!"
Long Fei Ye's alcohol tolerance was unknown, but he wasn't fond of alcohol. He casually set the jug aside and didn't say a word.
Tang Li was already a little tipsy. He sat down next to Long Fei Ye and muttered, "Big Bro, do you think that woman needs to do this? I don't even like her, so why does she have to marry me? "
Tang Li had been sullen ever since he'd run away from his marriage. Besides relying on Long Fei Ye, he had nowhere else to go.
Long Fei Ye didn't even look at him. He was immersed in his own thoughts.
Tang Li leaned close to him and whispered, "Bro, I'll just find a random woman, give birth to two babies, and bring my family home. Let's see what my father can do to me then! Actually, if they didn't push me so hard, I might have gone back by myself. The more they search the world for me, the more I don't want to go. "
Finally, Long Fei Ye stood up and looked over. Tang Li burped and laughed. "You want to say that I'm childish, right?"
Wrong!
Long Fei Ye didn't say anything. He grabbed Tang Li's hand and suddenly flew into the air. When he let go, Tang Li fell from a high place. The pain made him sober up a little.
Only then did Long Fei Ye open his mouth and say Coldly, "I dare you to go and disturb Han Yunxi again!"
Tang Li was stunned. Only then did he realize that Han Yunxi was sleeping in the room. So this guy was keeping watch for her?
Long Fei Ye had already walked far away, but Tang Li still chased after him and pulled him back. He whispered, "Bro, you … you still … no, you still …"
Tang Li spoke for a long time but couldn't finish his sentence. Long Fei Ye's expression had already changed. "Let go of me."
"Bro, just one sentence. The two of you should hurry up and give birth to a baby. I guarantee that my father and Aunt Ru won't dare to have any thoughts about Han Yunxi again!" Tang Li said seriously.
Long Fei Ye's face darkened. He kicked Tang Li into a pool not far away to sober up.
As for whether Tang Li's suggestion caused ripples in Long Fei Ye's heart, only he knew. In short, his brows, which had been tense all night, finally relaxed.
After dealing with the Chu family, when the ice and snow melted next year, he would definitely go to Tianshan!
The next day, Han Yunxi was the first to discover that Gu had disappeared.
"Could it be that he left last night?" Han Yunxi asked suspiciously.
Gu, whom she had been unable to chase away, suddenly left without saying goodbye. This made her feel a little uneasy.
She hadn't even interrogated Chu Tianyin yet. Why was that guy in such a hurry to leave? Did something urgent happen? Where did he go?
She had thought that it would be easy to get the Earth of Ten-Thousand Poisons from the poisonous herb storage, so she had told Mu Ling'er that Gu would be back soon. Now, Mu Ling'er must still be waiting day and night.
Waiting in exchange for disappointment was a cruel thing, let alone Mu Ling'er who had staked everything on waiting.
Han Yunxi didn't know how well she knew Gu, but at least from what she knew, Gu must have left because something had happened.
"Last night … what happened?" she asked seriously.
Tang Li sneezed and shook his head. "I don't know. I drank too much and fell into the lake …"
Tang Li had indeed drunk too much last night. He had completely forgotten what he had said to Long Fei Ye, and he didn't even remember that he had been kicked.
Long Fei Ye was expressionless at Tang Li's words. Long Fei Ye asked Han Yunxi, "Do you have something important to talk to him about?"
How could Han Yunxi and Mu Ling'er tell Long Fei Ye about their little schemes? She shook her head.
Long Fei Ye knew what was going on. He didn't ask any more questions and brought Han Yunxi to see Chu Tianyin. Chu Tianyin was locked in a secret room. He was severely injured and hadn't woken up yet.
But when Long Fei Ye splashed him with ice water, he immediately opened his eyes.
Chu Tianyin was truly a man. Despite his dire straits, there was no fear in his eyes. He arched a brow at Long Fei Ye and spat out a mouthful of dirty water without a word.
Long Fei Ye's lips curled into a cold smile. "Tang Li, send Witch Aunt to the military brothel."
"Long Fei Ye, come at this young master if you have the guts. What's the big deal about insulting a woman?" Chu Tianyin was furious. He didn't know that Witch Aunt had already been released back to the Chu Clan.
"You know the Earth of Ten-Thousand Poisons so well. Is the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion in the Chu Clan's hands?" Long Fei Ye asked with interest.
It was already difficult enough to find the secret underground room of the Poison Sect's storehouse. Moreover, he knew where the Earth of Ten-Thousand Poisons was and that it was afraid of fire. He must have some understanding of the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion.
Chu Tianyin and Aunt Ru had searched for a long time before finding out that the storehouse contained clues to unraveling the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion.
Long Fei Ye suspected Chu Tianyin, and Chu Tianyin suspected Long Fei Ye as well. When he met Long Fei Ye and Han Yunxi in the underground palace, he suspected that they were after the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion. In fact, he even suspected that the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion was in their hands.
But Long Fei Ye's question dispelled Chu Tianyin's suspicions. The Perplexing Butterfly Illusion was the Poison Sect's most precious treasure. It had been missing for so many years, so it was unlikely that it was in Long Fei Ye's hands.
Chu Tianyin was shrewd, intelligent, and calm. Unfortunately, he couldn't compare to a wily old fox like Long Fei Ye.
Long Fei Ye's question was precisely to dispel Chu Tianyin's suspicions.
"No, the Duke of Qin must be after the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion as well! The one who obtains the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion obtains the world. If the Duke of Qin's ambition is to conquer the world, why refuse the invitation of the central and southern regions? Doesn't the Duke of Qin feel that he's being very hypocritical? "Chu Tianyin laughed coldly.
The various powers of Tianning's central and southern regions had banded together to form the commander-in-chief's estate to support the Duke of Qin in his bid to establish a nation. Unfortunately, the Duke of Qin had ignored them to this day. All of Cloud Realm Continent's powers were paying close attention to the matter and trying to figure out what to do next.
Unfortunately, no one could figure out Long Fei Ye's intentions. That was the same as not understanding Tianning's true situation.
The Chu Clan wanted to use Chu Qingge's child to seize the throne and gain a foothold in Tianning. Then they could use that foothold to fight for the rest of Tianning. Thus, the Chu Clan was paying closer attention to Long Fei Ye's movements than anyone else.
Chu Tianyin was still too inexperienced to try to goad Long Fei Ye into action.
Long Fei Ye didn't reply, but Han Yunxi laughed first. "Chu Tianyin, you're overestimating the central and southern regions too much. The Duke of Qin didn't refuse them. He's just ignoring them."
Chu Tianyin's fist had landed on cotton, making him gloomy.
"Whoever obtains the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion will obtain the world. That's why your Western Zhou's Chu Clan has ambitions for the world as well. It looks like your lordship really needs to have a good chat with Western Zhou's emperor."
Long Fei Ye's words were casual, but Chu Tianyin grew alarmed. "Long Fei Ye, you …"
Long Fei Ye arched a brow and looked over. "Aside from the Earth of Ten-Thousand Poisons, what else did you find?"
Chu Tianyin fell silent.
Long Fei Ye wouldn't allow that. "Your lordship's patience is limited. Don't regret it."
His warning from before was still ringing in his ears. Witch Aunt was Chu Tianyin's mother's older sister and his aunt. He would never allow anything to happen to her.
Moreover, Witch Aunt had gone to great lengths to find out everything about the Perplexing Butterfly Illusion. It was worth it to use it to save her.
"I didn't find anything," Chu Tianyin intoned. "But I do know the whereabouts of three other things. Release Witch Aunt and I'll tell you."
"Speak," Long Fei Ye agreed easily.
"I want to see Witch Aunt first." Chu Tianyin was very serious.
Long Fei Ye was even more straightforward. "If you want to talk, then talk. If you don't, then forget it!"
Chu Tianyin clearly had bargaining chips, but he was completely suppressed by Long Fei Ye's domineering aura. This was the first time in his life that he'd felt so stifled and sullen, but he had no choice but to admit it!
"This one believes that the Duke of Qin is not someone who goes back on his word!" Chu Tianyin threw down these words, then continued, "There's also the Water of Ten-Thousand Poisons, Wood of Ten-Thousand Poisons, and Poison Beast Blood. The Water of Ten-Thousand Poisons is a poisonous pond in Medicine City's Medicine Forest, but its whereabouts are unknown. The Wood of Ten-Thousand Poisons is on a thousand-year-old ginkgo tree in Western Zhou's Thousand Buddha Cave. As for which piece it is, I'm not sure. The Poison Beast Blood is the tooth blood of the Poison Sect's Poison Beast. There are rumors that the Poison Beast Blood has gone missing, but it's hard to tell if it's true or false. "
Han Yunxi sat to the side, gently stroking the sleeping Lil Thing in her sleeve.
Although there were three things, only one was useful to them. But one was enough.
"On a ginkgo tree? What do you mean? "Long Fei Ye asked.
"I'm not sure. The ginkgo tree in Western Zhou's Thousand Buddha Cave isn't easy to find." Chu Tianyin was telling the truth.
Thousand Buddha Cave was Western Zhou's holy land. It was open only to grand ceremonies, and even grand ceremonies were only open to members of the imperial family and a few clans. The thousand-year-old ginkgo tree was also a place for monks to cultivate, so it wasn't easy to get close.
"Duke of Qin, I've told you everything I know. Can you let Witch Aunt go now? You're a man, don't go back on your word! "Chu Tianyin was very anxious.
Tang Li, who had been standing to the side this entire time, couldn't help but laugh. "Eldest Young Master Chu, the Duke of Qin let her go last night. He's a man of his word, isn't he?"
Chu Tianyin finally realized that he'd been played. He was both embarrassed and angry, but he didn't lose his reason. His first thought was: Why did Long Fei Ye let Witch Aunt go?
"Long Fei Ye, what exactly are you trying to do?" he asked.
Long Fei Ye didn't answer. Instead, he asked thoughtfully, "If the Chu Clan's ambition is to rule the world, who should this prince talk to?"
Chu Tianyin was so shocked by these words that he almost couldn't speak. He didn't want to say anything, because there was no point in saying anything in this situation. It would only reveal more.
Long Fei Ye glanced at Han Yunxi out of the corner of his eye. He saw Han Yunxi's curious expression.
This woman was always so curious about the Seven Noble Families.
Fortunately … she didn't know the truth.
Long Fei Ye didn't have time to waste with Chu Tianyin. He asked Coldly, "Apart from the Nether Clan, who else of the Seven Noble Families are there?"
