Jolina vented for a full ten minutes before calming down.
Jolina frowned and said, "Tong Ming, who do you think the other party is?"
Tong Ming frowned and said, "My Lord, this is hard to determine. However, the other party is very likely a Sovereign level expert. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to disguise himself so well in front of us. Without a Sovereign level cultivation, the other party shouldn't be so daring!"
"Also … my Lord, the other party might not have any ill intentions towards us."
"Hm?"
Jolina's eyes flashed coldly.
Tong Ming said, "Milord, think about it. Although the other party deceived us, he didn't do anything to betray us. Milord, you gave him something, but you gave it to him of your own accord. He didn't deceive you!"
"Now that I think about it, some of the things he said make sense."
"My Lord, although you spent a lot of money to buy the Origin Blood Demon Stone, you also gained a lot of benefits. My Lord, your reputation has greatly increased!"
"The only problem is that my Lord, you told him about the Black Spirit Race and the Human Race's Race Blood War!"
"However, as long as the other party isn't a human expert and doesn't have any ill intentions towards us, this isn't too serious. The other party shouldn't have said anything!"
Jolina calmed down completely. She carefully recalled what she had said before.
Indeed, it was as Tong Ming said. The other party must have accepted them on purpose. However, it was possible that the other party was using this method to warn her.
"Is it possible that the other party is a human expert and is doing this so that we can stop our operations against the Human Race?"
Jolina said.
Tong Ming said, "My Lord, we can't completely eliminate this possibility. In particular, the other party's departure is suspicious. However, even if the other party is a human expert, what he said makes sense. My Lord, there's no harm in keeping a low profile for a while."
"My Lord, the other party shouldn't know that Senior Dugu came to find us."
"It's very likely that he will contact us again!"
Jolina's eyes flashed. "That's right. Senior Dugu came here secretly. The other party might come again!"
"This Seat wants to see who dares to make fun of this Seat!"
"Even if the other party has good intentions, they will have to pay the price for causing Senior Dugu's death!"
Tong Ming thought. You were the one who killed Dugu Yin …
However, he could only think about it in his heart. It was impossible for him to say it out loud!
"Tongming, tell the Iron Mountain Ruler that Senior Dugu hasn't been able to contact him yet. If I do, I'll definitely pay a visit to the Iron Mountain Ruler with Senior Dugu!"
Jolina said.
"Yes, sir!"
The Netherpassage Ruler nodded.
"Also, you stay here. If that guy comes over, keep him in check, then take him to Fort Iron Mountain. I'll go to Fort Iron Mountain first. Maybe he won't contact us, but will contact the Iron Mountain Sovereign directly!"
"Yes, sir!"
Jolina quickly set off.
…
The Heaven Reaching Sacred Region was the region where the Heaven Reaching Wood Clan gathered the most. The Iron Mountain Fort was located in the Eternal Forest Farm in the Heaven Reaching Sacred Region.
Countless powerhouses of the Sky-reaching Tree Clan had gathered there. Each of the trees was larger than a planet, and each tree was like a world!
If there were experts who were good at formations, they would be able to see that the experts of the Heavenspan Tree Race had formed a complicated formation!
Even if a peak Ruler came over, if they messed around in the Eternal Forest Farm, there was an 80% to 90% chance that they would die here.
If the experts of the Heavenspan Tree Race moved to another place to deal with other experts, it would be troublesome. They weren't good at it, but in their territory, they were extremely powerful!
"The third one."
The Iron Mountain Ruler's expression was incomparably gloomy. The other ten Rulers of the Heavenspan Tree Race in the hall he was in also had ugly expressions.
Just a moment ago, they had received news that another half-step Ruler had been infected.
There were already two in front of them.
"We've already thought of all sorts of methods. Why is it still like this?"
The other Ruler said with an ugly expression. The half-step Ruler who had been infected recently was one of his subordinates!
The Iron Mountain Ruler said in a low voice, "We still haven't found the source of the infection. If we can't find it, more experts will definitely be infected!"
"Everyone, perhaps we should awaken Senior Cang Yun and see if he can solve the problem! Although we've invited a Ruler alchemist, Senior Cang Qu is still an expert of the Heavenspan Tree Race. He naturally understands our race better! "
"Moreover, he's also a Ruler alchemist. He might be able to solve the problem!"
"If things continue to worsen, even if Senior Cang Qu finds a way to solve the problem, we'll still have to pay a terrible price!"
The Iron Mountain Ruler suggested.
Everyone fell silent. This was no small matter.
If Sovereign Cang Yun was awakened, he might not be able to enter a state of suspended animation. Even if they tried their best, Sovereign Cang Yun would probably only be able to live for a thousand years. This was a long time for an ordinary person, but for a Ruler, it was very short.
Losing Sovereign Cang Yun would be a heavy blow to the Heavenspan Tree Race.
Although Sovereign Cang Yun wasn't a peak Ruler, he was still a high-level Ruler. Moreover, he was a Ruler alchemist. His status wasn't any lower than a peak Ruler's!
"Milord, we've just received news that one of our half-step Rulers has been infected."
One of the Iron Mountain Ruler's subordinates transmitted.
The Iron Mountain Ruler's expression changed.
"Everyone, one of my subordinates just sent news that one of my half-step Rulers has been infected!"
"Our Heavenspan Tree Race already has four half-step Rulers!"
The Iron Mountain Ruler said in a low voice.
Everyone's expressions changed.
The rate of infection was increasing!
Most likely, the enemy had noticed the Heavenspan Tree Race's movements and had secretly used some sort of method to hasten the rate of infection!
"The Old Man agrees," an old man said.
This old man was very old, and he looked very weak. However, he was a peak Ruler!
One of the four active peak Rulers of the Heavenspan Tree Race!
… Aside from Sovereign Colored Glass, the human race also had three active peak Rulers, and they weren't any fewer than the Heavenspan Tree Race.
Given the human race's ranking, this was quite good.
The main reason was that peak Rulers weren't that easy to kill. There were fewer low-level, mid-level, and high-level Rulers in the human race!
"Let's do it this way."
"Agreed!"
The other Rulers present all nodded. Another half-step Ruler had been infected, and this placed quite a bit of pressure on them. They wouldn't be able to wake Sovereign Cang Yun in time.
Even if Sovereign Cang Yun woke up, he would still need time to investigate and find the antidote!
"Let's go together and wake Sovereign Cang Yun up," the Iron Mountain Ruler said.
Everyone nodded.
Not long after, they arrived at a secret realm. This was the place where Sovereign Cang Yun was in suspended animation. He had been in that state for a very long time.
A look of sorrow appeared in the eyes of the Iron Mountain Ruler and the others.
Waking Sovereign Cang Yun up was the same as sending him to his death!
"Senior Cang Yun, please wake up!"
The Iron Mountain Ruler knelt down, his soul energy filling the entire secret realm.
Next, the other experts, including the peak Ruler, all knelt down. Sovereign Cang Yun was much older than them!
Their soul energy filled the entire secret realm.
A single Ruler wouldn't be able to wake Sovereign Cang Yun up. If it was a low-level Ruler, eight or ten of them would be needed to wake him up. As for peak Rulers, at least two would be needed to wake him up.
The Iron Mountain Ruler and the others had peak and high-level Rulers, and there were around ten of them. Waking Sovereign Cang Yun up wasn't a problem at all.
"Wuuuu!"
A wind began to blow within the secret realm. Soon, countless motes of light began to gather from every direction. In just ten breaths of time, these motes of light had formed into an enormous tree that was more than a hundred thousand kilometers tall.
"Rise."
"What year is it now?"
The enormous tree quickly transformed into an azure-robed elder who appeared before the Iron Mountain Ruler and the others. He didn't blame the Iron Mountain Ruler for waking him up.
In the past, he had entered a state of suspended animation so that when he woke up in the future, he would be able to help!
"Senior Cang Yun, you've been here for billions of years."
The peak Ruler said.
"Billions of years … so long!"
"You woke the Old Man up. Did you help the Old Man break through to peak Ruler? Or did you run into some trouble?"
Sovereign Cang Yun asked.
The Iron Mountain Ruler laughed bitterly. "Senior Cang Yun, our Heavenspan Wood Race encountered a terrifying virus. It should have been created by a Ruler alchemist. We've already invited many experts, including two Ruler alchemists, to try and solve it, but there hasn't been any progress."
"Four half-step Rulers have already been infected. More than a hundred thousand Holy Venerables have been infected!"
"There are countless Holy Venerables and below!"
Sovereign Cang Yun's expression turned serious. "No experts have come looking for you to ask for any treasures?"
"No!"
Sovereign Cang Yun frowned. In this situation, there was a high chance that the other party wasn't looking for treasures. They were purely looking for revenge!
