At this moment, within the palace gates of the Lord's Mansion, a man and a woman were tightly embracing each other.

At a glance, the man was somewhat handsome, wearing a black robe and his temperament looked very sharp and cold. Regardless of whether it was his appearance or body, the woman who only hugged him was considered of the upper class, plus, he was wearing a single gauze dress that caused his tender white skin to vaguely blossom, it was simply not too attractive, if it was a normal man who was hugged by this kind of woman.

However, the motionless black clothed man did not move at all. Instead, he revealed a helpless expression, as if this was not a pleasure for him, but rather a torture to him.

If someone were to pass by and see the two of them, they would definitely be exceptionally shocked. Xuanyuan Lixi, the daughter of the Lord of the Blood Slaughter Grounds, would actually appear to be as intimate as a lover with her master Ling Yunfan.

"Alright, have you two not hugged enough prodigies?"

After an unknown period of time, just as he was about to persuade Xuanyuan Li Xi to let go of him, there was an additional revealing figure in front of him. Whether it was her temperament or appearance, a beautiful and mature woman was staring at him with displeasure.

This person was naturally Cang Yu, who had come a few days ago to assist with the assistance of the simple and unadorned Protector of the Limitless Pavilion, after she had sensed Ling Yunfan's aura. She had thought that Ling Yunfan had also sensed her presence, and had then rushed over as fast as she could to reminisce about the past, but in the end, she had waited a full two hours.

However, when she arrived and saw this scene, she was immediately a little angry. This Fifth Martial Brother, who she regarded as an important family member, was actually in a good mood with her disciple, and had even forgotten about her. If it was someone else, they would probably be the same.

"Well, that's none of my business." Seeing that Senior Sister Cang Yu seemed a little angry, Ling Yun hurriedly pushed Xuanyuan Li Xi out of the way. Then, with an innocent expression, he said, "Senior Sister, don't misunderstand, Li Xi is acting like this because she hasn't seen me as a master for a long time."

As his words faded, Xuanyuan Lixi, who had been pushed away, sensibly returned to Cang Yu's side and hugged her arm. She didn't say anything, maintaining her sweet smile, maintaining her sweet and adorable appearance.

"This girl is really naughty." After obtaining her explanation, Cang Yu gradually relaxed the anger in his heart. He pinched the delicate nose of the little girl beside him and reprimanded her before shifting his gaze back to Ling Yunfan. With a slightly helpless expression, he opened his mouth and said: "Since you're here, let's go in together. I presume that the Lord would like to speak to you as well."

Finished speaking, she ignored him and walked with Xuanyuan Li Xi behind her.

"Heh heh..." As for this farce between the two siblings, Caution forced a smile and said, "Alright, don't look at how your senior sister is finding trouble the moment she comes. She actually cares a lot about you in the dark. Let's hurry up and enter the hall."

"Yes."

Hearing this, Ling Yunfan, who knew Cang Yu's feelings better than anyone else, did not say anything. He only nodded and followed after him.

… …

Under the lead of the two of them, they arrived at the great hall. Under Xuanyuan Hao's guidance, Ling Yunfan arrived at the seat specially prepared for him.

"It looks like things are really going the way I thought they would go." At this moment, after hearing the details of the battle between the Heavenly Jade City's martial practitioners and the Bone Spirit Clan's elder who was at the eighth level of the Transcending Mortality Stage and had come here, Ling Yunfan immediately felt that the situation was not good. As if he had thought of something, he said apologetically, "I'm really sorry, but I wasn't able to rush back to help you when you were defending against the enemy."

Finished speaking, Ling Yun Fan stood up, and wanted to bow to the few people in front of him to show his apology.

"Hey, what are you saying? Didn't your senior brother and sister come? Just this is enough. In addition, you also have this heart." Seeing this, Xuanyuan Hao's expression suddenly changed. He quickly released his Spiritual Energy, which was at the eighth level of the Transcending Mortality Stage, to stop his movements. Then, he slowly opened his mouth and explained.

"Yeah, little master, you don't have to do this." As his words fell, Xuanyuan Li Xi also stepped forward to persuade him.

Seeing the two of them acting this way, Ling Yun looked at Cang Yu and Jing Xing and discovered that they both nodded in agreement. The regret in his heart was instantly reduced by more than half, but there was still something that he should have done.

Actually, he could not be blamed for this. After all, when Bi Tian City and the Bone Spirit Clan's Elder led the army over, he was heavily injured by the strange monster that lived in the void and had fainted. Not to mention assisting Xuanyuan Hao, even walking would be a problem for him, not to mention chasing down the Shadow Sky Painting, which was controlled by the Bone Spirit Clan, as well as supporting the Qiu Family.

Faced with all these difficult matters, even if he did not go and help the members of the Jade Heaven City defend their enemies, he would still be forgiven. After all, their manpower was limited, and it was impossible for them to split Ling Yun into two bodies and let the other one help Xuanyuan Hao and the rest.

"What's wrong?"

Just like this, seeing that Liu Ming had calmed down and was looking left and right for some reason, Xuanyuan Hao, who was seated at the top, asked curiously.

Although he sensed something, it was better to ask just in case. It was the same for everyone else.

"Oh, it's like this..." Seeing him ask that, Ling Yun Fan did not hide anything, and directly asked: "When we were fighting in the Heavenly Jade City, your son Li Hao should have also gone to the battlefield with you, right? Now that the war is over, why is he not seen?

"As expected."

Hearing that he would ask Xuanyuan Li Hao's whereabouts the moment he opened his mouth, everyone felt as if they had discussed this matter beforehand, their hearts sinking to the bottom.

"What's going on?" Seeing that not only did the others not answer his question, but they also had strange expressions, the intelligent Lingyun seemed to have guessed something, but no matter what, he was not willing to believe it, so he opened his mouth again and asked: "Don't keep quiet, the atmosphere is very weird."2

"Hao'er, he …" Facing Ling Yun Fan's second question, Xuanyuan Hao closed his eyes and took a deep breath. With a slightly sad expression, he said in a deep voice, "When faced with the invasion of the Bone Spirit Clan, Hao'er and his men were sacrificed."
