“Yun Tianmo, you’ve really had enough!” Nangong Tuo shouted angrily, jumping up and glaring at the indifferent Yun Tianmo. “Why are you always following me? It’s been two days, two whole days! You block me wherever I go without explaining anything. What do you want?”
Yun Tianmo looked coldly at Nangong Tuo, remaining silent as if he hadn’t heard what was just said.
Nangong Tuo felt like he was hitting a wall of cotton, frustrated and unable to vent his anger. “I’m telling you, tonight I’m going hunting no matter what. If you block me again, I’ll…”
“What will you do?” Yun Tianmo coldly retorted, unimpressed by Nangong Tuo's empty threats.
In terms of physical confrontation, Nangong Tuo and his guards were no match for Yun Tianmo. To Yun Tianmo, Nangong Tuo's threats were mere words. As long as he didn’t agree, Nangong Tuo wouldn’t be able to go anywhere.
Controlling Nangong Tuo’s movements was to prevent him from encountering Ouyang Zixin and Ning Zhiyuan. Although Ning Zhiyuan’s current appearance was completely obscured by mud, careful observation could still reveal hints. This slim chance could not be underestimated; Ning Zhiyuan’s existence must not be exposed prematurely.
According to reports from his subordinates, Ning Zhiyuan was closely following Ouyang Zixin. With him around, Ouyang Zixin’s safety was assured, so Yun Tianmo only needed to focus on dealing with Nangong Tuo.
“Don’t think I’m afraid of you just because your cultivation is higher. If it comes down to it, we’ll both suffer.” Nangong Tuo was nearly driven mad by Yun Tianmo; he couldn’t reason with him and couldn’t defeat him in a fight. At this rate, he might as well stay in the palace.
Sitting down on the ground, Nangong Tuo uprooted the nearby flowers and plants in frustration. The ground was littered with remnants of flowers and grass; he had no other way to vent his anger.
While Nangong Tuo focused on destroying the plants around him, a strange disturbance rippled through the air. Yun Tianmo glanced at the sulking Nangong Tuo before turning and walking toward a nearby thicket.
“Master.” A shadow guard emerged from the thicket and respectfully saluted. In a lowered voice, he reported, “The Bai Clan members have not shown any unusual actions after encountering Ouyang Zixin.”
At least they can keep their composure.
Yun Tianmo nodded in acknowledgment and turned to leave.
“Master, there is one more thing.” Three shadow guards followed Yun Tianmo into Lingchi Peak, each responsible for different tasks. However, in the early morning, another shadow guard brought news regarding Ouyang Zixin's narrow escape last night.
After listening to the report from the shadow guard, Yun Tianmo furrowed his brows, his thin lips pressed into a line. After a moment of silence, he said, “Find the trace. I will meet it.”
The High-Level Three-Eyed Purple-Pupiled Profound Beast was not unheard of, but one that had cultivated to Blue Xuan and possessed such powerful Eye Power was rare. Since it had appeared, Yun Tianmo would not miss this opportunity.

“Yun Tianmo, are you serious?”
Nangong Tuo was holding a large piece of roasted meat in one hand and a water bag filled with fine wine in the other. He was enjoying his meal when he heard Yun Tianmo say he was leaving. He immediately dropped everything and eagerly called for his guards to prepare for departure.
Yun Tianmo was finally leaving! Haha, Ouyang Zixin, this Prince is coming to find you!
“Take care on your way; I won’t see you off. I’m off to hunt,” Nangong Tuo waved his hand without looking back and quickly walked away.
With a cold snort, Yun Tianmo turned and walked in the opposite direction.
“Is the information accurate?”
With no one around, it seemed as if Yun Tianmo was talking to himself.
“Accurate.” A voice came from the air, answering Yun Tianmo's question.
“Notify Ning Zhiyuan.” After speaking, Yun Tianmo leaped into the air and headed straight ahead.
Ning Zhiyuan quickly received the news, his expression somewhat grim. He looked at the Shadow Guard and asked, "What exactly does Yun Jiu want to do?"
"The young master need not ask too much; we dare not speak of Master’s arrangements," the Shadow Guard replied coldly, echoing Yun Tianmo's demeanor. With a slight bow, he vanished without a trace.
Shaking his head helplessly, Ning Zhiyuan found it impossible to fathom Yun Tianmo's plans. That night when Ouyang Zixin encountered the High-Level Mystic Beast, he did not intervene; why was he now taking the initiative to seek out that Mystical Beast?
If it were for revenge on Ouyang Zixin, he could not believe it. With Yun Tianmo's icy personality, which was even colder than his own, he would never be so trivial.
So what exactly was he looking for with that Mystical Beast? Could it be that he wanted to capture the Purple-Eyed Beast?
Never mind; he would find out by going to take a look.
After informing Ouyang Zixin, Ning Zhiyuan hurried to the location relayed by Yun Tianmo.
As midnight approached, two figures, one purple and one grayish-blue, stood side by side in front of a cave.
"Do you want to go in, or should I?"
"No rush."
Ning Zhiyuan turned to glance at Yun Tianmo and raised an eyebrow. "That’s quite a formidable creature; what exactly is your plan? It can't just be the two of us, right?"
The surroundings were exceptionally quiet, and there was no sense of anyone lurking in the shadows. Having witnessed the High-Level Three-Eyed Purple-Pupiled Profound Beast firsthand, Ning Zhiyuan did not feel confident that Yun Tianmo could handle it alone without a solid plan.
However, seeing his composed demeanor suggested that he was not entirely unprepared.
"Are you scared?"
"Haha, at my age, I still don't know what fear feels like." The feeling of being looked down upon by Yun Tianmo was truly unpleasant. Ning Zhiyuan admitted that he was not a match for that High-Level Mystic Beast, but that did not mean he was afraid.
That night, he was more worried about not being able to protect Ouyang Zixin, and he had never really worried about anything else.
"You really have a plan," Ning Zhiyuan turned around, tilted his head to sense something, and chuckled lightly. "It's all you."
The two stood on the high ground, the night deepening around them. The newcomers had not noticed them as they cautiously moved toward the cave.
Yun Tianmo glanced at the newcomers with a hint of disdain. For people like them to be used was already a stroke of luck.
"Are you sure there's a High-Level Mystic Beast here?" A woman's voice sounded uncertain in the quiet night, somewhat eerie.
"Miss, my subordinates have checked thoroughly. That Mystical Beast is currently in a dormant stage; we can..." As he spoke, he made a gesture of cutting his throat, his eyes filled with smugness.
Normally, they wouldn't dare provoke a High-Level Mystic Beast, but since it was in a dormant state, they saw this as an opportunity to act and could boast about it later.
"Hmph, that's simply wishful thinking." Another woman's voice interrupted their conversation with a cold snort. "With your kind of people, how dare you set your sights on a High-Level Mystic Beast?"
"Sister Zhao, if we don’t try, how will we know?"
Under the moonlight, Sito Rongyan's face looked unclear, but her tone revealed that she no longer held the same respect for Zhao Feiyu as before. (To be continued.)
