Upon returning to Yuxu Palace with Yu Wuxia, Ye Huan was not concerned about the trouble that Beitang Mo's people might cause. After all, as long as he did not carry the bloody aura associated with Blood Refinement Sword Qi, he believed no one would be foolish enough to intrude into Yuxu Palace to seek him out.
"Ye Huan, why did you return to Eastern State early? And who are those people with you?"
Finding a quiet room for Ye Huan, Yu Wuxia did not rush to hand over the Spatial Ring obtained from Beitang Mo. Instead, he carefully inquired if anything had happened along the way and why Ye Huan was accompanied by two Tenth-Level Beasts and a Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon.
It was known that although Tenth-Level Beasts could take on human forms, high-level Cultivators could easily identify them if they lacked any special concealment techniques. If it came to that, given the value of Tenth-Level Beasts, it was inevitable that no Cultivator would resist the temptation to target Ye Huan.
With a wry smile, Ye Huan understood all too well how immense the allure of Tenth-Level Beasts was to Cultivators. If it weren't for this reason, he wouldn't have had to follow the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon as a bodyguard.
He briefly described the events that had transpired during this time. Despite being the leader of Yuxu Palace, Yu Wuxia found it hard to believe everything Ye Huan had encountered. When he heard that Ye Huan's meridians had been severely damaged, causing his belly to swell, Yu Wuxia felt a mix of amusement and astonishment at what Ye Huan had gone through.
After Ye Huan finished speaking, there was a long silence before Yu Wuxia finally raised his head and handed over the second Spatial Ring he had received from Beitang Mo. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "For now, you and your friends can stay in Yuxu Palace. I will send someone out to gather information, and I will notify you as soon as I learn anything."
"Alright, we'll do it your way. But what about this ring..."
Looking at the Spatial Ring handed to him by Yu Wuxia, Ye Huan was immediately captivated by its ancient design and could not bear to return it. He eagerly asked about its origins.
"This ring is something I obtained from Beitang Mo. I haven't looked inside it yet, but I can assure you that there are likely some good Flying Swords and treasures within."
With a slight smile, Yu Wuxia noticed how much Ye Huan seemed to like the Spatial Ring and reassured him before leaving the room, giving Ye Huan some time alone.
'Beitang Mo's Spatial Ring?'
Ye Huan glanced at the heavy door of the room that Yu Wuxia had closed behind him, then looked down at the antique Spatial Ring in his hand. He pondered that since the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon and the others were inside Yuxu Palace, they were unlikely to encounter any danger. With that thought, Ye Huan couldn't help but probe a bit of Divine Sense into the Spatial Ring. To his astonishment, he discovered not just one Flying Sword within, but dozens of them.
"Beitang Mo can be this generous? No way..."
He felt something was off about this Spatial Ring. Ye Huan tried to take out one of the Flying Swords, and as soon as it was exposed to the air, sunlight streamed in through the window cracks and illuminated it. The sword was covered in various talismans from tip to hilt, making it impossible to discern its original form, as if it were some long-sealed treasure.
After toying with the Flying Sword for a while, Ye Huan hesitated to remove the talismans since he had never heard of such things existing in Eastern State. Instead, he carefully returned the Flying Sword to the Spatial Ring and tucked it safely into his pocket.
Creak…
Before Ye Huan could finish what he was doing, a loud noise interrupted him as the door swung open. The Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon swaggered in as if it were entering its own home, completely disregarding that they were in Yuxu Palace and not Dragon Hall Headquarters.
"Ye Huan, when are we leaving this place?"
The dragon landed on the only Wooden Bed in the room, seemingly oblivious to Ye Huan's strange gaze. It asked while finding a comfortable position to lie down. Ye Huan shook his head repeatedly and reluctantly explained the conclusion he had reached after discussing with Yu Wuxia.
"What? We’re still going to stay here?"
Upon hearing Ye Huan's answer, the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon shot up from the bed and flew right in front of Ye Huan. Its eyes, as large as light bulbs, stared intently at him, startling Ye Huan. He hurriedly asked, "What’s wrong? Did you sense something off?"
"Even if I did sense something off, I still plan to go find..."
He hesitated to continue speaking. The Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon had become unexpectedly shy at some point. Unfortunately for it, what it had said earlier had already betrayed its inner thoughts—it clearly wanted to find its 'old flame' as soon as possible.
Understanding the meaning of "Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon," a sly smile crept onto Ye Huan's face. He leaned in slightly and whispered, "Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon, I have to say, what's the difference for a woman between seeing someone earlier or later?"
"You don't understand anything. This is called feelings, just like you and Zhao Ziyu."
Rolling his eyes at Ye Huan, the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon fell silent. The moment he spoke, Ye Huan was suddenly quiet. Yes, he was worried about Zhao Ziyu, but now that he didn't even know where she was, where could he possibly look for her? He would have to rely on the influence of Yuxu Palace to help gather information.
"Um... Ye Huan, I was just joking. Please don't take it to heart."
After a while without hearing Ye Huan respond, the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon noticed that Ye Huan's mood seemed to shift with the mention of "Zhao Ziyu." He hurriedly apologized, but unexpectedly, Ye Huan waved his hand dismissively and replied, "Don't worry, I'm fine. Golden Dragon, listen to me..."
Ye Huan explained the current situation in detail to the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon. It dawned on the love-struck Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon that they had no destination in mind. If they wanted to find Zhao Ziyu or her "old flame," relying on the local tyrant Yuxu Palace seemed like the best choice.
"By the way, Golden Dragon, what do you think about the conflict between Heavenly Dragon Sect and Yuxu Palace..."
Seeing that the Nine-Clawed Golden Dragon had caught on, Ye Huan finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, there was one thing he had to be cautious about: the already existing enmity with Heavenly Dragon Sect.
