Xiao Wu followed the eldest and the third into a courtyard.

Under the Gui tree in the yard, a delicate girl with a white cloth covering her eyes was writing at a desk.

Xiao Wu entered the courtyard, looked around, and found no trace of anyone else except for the blind girl. He asked, "Not here?"

As soon as he spoke, the delicate girl slowly stood up.

The third brother introduced with a smile, "This is Dong'Er, my sister, and also the highest commander of our army."

Hearing this, Xiao Wu's eyes widened as he looked at this delicate girl, who had no cultivation and seemed unremarkable, completely overwhelmed with shock.

The renowned commander whose fame spread far and wide and made the entire Ancient Wilderness Immortal Realm tremble — was actually a blind girl?!

"This is my fifth brother," the eldest also introduced Xiao Wu to Li Dong'Er.

The eldest brother's words brought Xiao Wu back to reality from his bewilderment, and only then did Xiao Wu introduce himself to Li Dong'Er: "Ye Yan."

"Brother Ye Wu," Li Dong'Er also cupped her fists and greeted.

...

"Xiao Wu, don't be misled by Dong'Er's young appearance; she is much older than you," the third brother teased Xiao Wu with a smile.

...

Upon hearing this, Ye Yan's pupils contracted, as if he had heard something inconceivable.

Older than me??

It seems that Li Dong'Er is not an ordinary mortal, but thinking about it, it's understandable. Ordinary mortal cultivators couldn't have come this far.

"If you're older than me, then, like the eldest and third brother, you can call me Xiao Wu," Ye Yan said with a smile.

...

After speaking, Li Dong'Er shook her head and said, "I will still call you Brother Wu."

"Hahaha, that's fine too."

Although it was the first time Ye Yan had met Dong'Er, from this brief interaction, it was clear that Dong'Er was indeed incredibly intelligent, far beyond ordinary wisdom, and very pleasant to interact with.

...

Half an hour later.

"This isn't difficult, but it will take some time,"

After listening to Li Dong'Er's request, Ye Yan frowned slightly and responded.

Upon hearing this, both the eldest and third brother showed expressions of astonishment.

Not difficult means it can be done!

Goodness, Xiao Wu's intelligence network is that powerful??

This task involves gathering intelligence from three Upper-Rank Immortal Realms at once, which is no easy feat.

...

"No rush, it can be done within a thousand years," Li Dong'Er said slowly.

"No need for a thousand years, at most five hundred years, that's enough time," Ye Yan waved his hand.

...

"May I be so bold as to ask... aren't we attacking the Ancient Wilderness Immortal Realm right now? Why gather intelligence on the other three Upper-Rank Immortal Realms?"

Although Ye Yan did not participate in the frontline battle with the eldest and third brother, he had been closely monitoring the war from the shadows.

The eldest brother explained the reasoning behind this.

After listening, Ye Yan also showed a serious expression: "Indeed, how did I not consider this? It's indeed a very significant hidden danger."

...

"Rest assured, within five hundred years, I will gather all the information and intelligence that can be found."

"However, concerning the core secrets of the Three Great Immortal Realms, I may not be capable; my current abilities are indeed limited."

Ye Yan explained his current situation.

"Then I'll trouble Brother Wu; no need for core secrets, just information about the Three Great Immortal Realms, whether important or not,"

"Quantity is what matters, not the quality of content."

Li Dong'Er said to Ye Yan.

Hearing this, a glint of surprise flashed in Ye Yan's eyes.

It was the first time he had heard that intelligence required quantity over quality, as usually, only core secrets are considered truly valuable.

Nevertheless, he refrained from asking more, after all... in military strategy, he was completely inexperienced, and Dong'Er surely had her own plans.

...

Li Dong'Er did not need core secrets but required a sufficient quantity of other information, even if they were relatively unimportant.

Through piecing together fragments, she could deduce the most crucial, significant secrets — this was her powerful ability in insight and deduction.

...

After clarifying everything, Xiao Wu stood up, ready to leave.

"I'll be off first, I'll make arrangements right away."

Seeing this, the eldest brother pressed Xiao Wu back down and said, "No rush for now, it's been years since us brothers have met, stay a few days before leaving."

"There are also things I want to ask you."

Hearing this, the third brother and Xiao Wu also sensed something amiss, secretly feeling uneasy.

"Tell me honestly, what's Second Brother up to?" The eldest brother stared into Xiao Wu's eyes, pressing him.

At this moment, Li Dong'Er stood up, preparing to go inside. This was family business, it was better for her to avoid it.

"Dong'Er, there's no need to avoid it; it's all family matters, you can listen too." Seeing Dong'Er preparing to leave, the eldest brother called her back in time.

Upon hearing this, Dong'Er was a bit surprised but sat back down, quietly writing at her desk.

"Eldest brother, I truly don't know," Xiao Wu spread his hands.

...

"Don't pretend, your relationship with Second Brother is the closest, you definitely know."

The eldest brother wasn't easily fooled either.

With Xiao Wu's intelligence network developing so strongly, he couldn't believe Second Brother wasn't helping behind the scenes.

...

"Eldest brother, let me be honest with you."

"Second Brother isn't as you think, indulging in pleasure all day. He's also closely monitoring our war situation and secretly making arrangements."

Xiao Wu said seriously.

After he spoke, the eldest brother rubbed his forehead in frustration, too annoyed to ask further.

"He's arranging nonsense!"

"Forget it, forget it, let's not talk about Second Brother, it only gives me a headache."

"Xiao Wu, stay a few more days before leaving; I have some excellent young talents here, reserved especially for you to take along."

The eldest brother said.

"Alright, I'll leave in a few days."

...

Above the Long River.

In the early morning, Su Mu slowly opened his eyes. Inside him, yet another new Immortal Acupoint appeared, causing his aura to surge greatly.

The eighth reincarnation had finally been deduced by Su Mu.

The eighth reincarnation was called "Celestial Emotions."

This "emotions" represented the seven emotions and six desires of the human world.

In this eighth reincarnation, Su Mu experienced familial love, romantic love, friendship... all the affections and entanglements of the world.

Yet, this reincarnation almost caused Su Mu to encounter an accident, nearly becoming lost.

If lost, not only would the reincarnation fail, but he might also remain forever trapped in a dream....

Fortunately, Su Mu came to his senses in time, severing worldly ties and letting go of all worldly attachments to finally wake up, successfully completing this reincarnation.

This reincarnation appeared the simplest and safest, but it was truly the most dangerous.... The warmth of the mortal world and the attachments of family were the hardest bonds to sever.

The eighth reincarnation was already completed, leaving only the final one to attain nine Immortal Acupoints and achieve the Immortal King Realm.

But... what exactly is this last reincarnation?

As Su Mu pondered,

A commotion arose on the riverbank, and Su Mu stood up, seeing several small figures running toward him.
