The young woman was indeed the girl Gui Qi had captured, intending to abuse her.

Fu Changsheng took her along when escaping from Blood Abyss Mountain because of a somewhat familiar birthmark on her body. Facing Fairy Yaoo’s questioning, he normally wouldn’t bother to explain, but since Fairy Yaoo had just risked her life to save him, he spoke truthfully.

Fairy Yaoo raised her eyebrows in surprise:

“Brother Lio, could it be that you still have family left in the Cangling Realm?”

Indeed.

His father was still in the Cangling Realm.

But that was not something he could say, given the current level of his relationship with Fairy Yaoo wasn’t one where they shared everything openly.

Meanwhile.

Cao Qingyun was not concerned with this mortal young woman, but rather regretted, “There’s less than ten days until we can teleport out of the Cangling Realm. It’s undoubtedly wishful thinking to try and seize the Cloud-devouring Beast Demon Pill from Blood Saber Sect again!”

After all.

Once the Blood Sect Leader successfully withstands the Thunder Tribulation.

It becomes a Nascent Soul Sect.

Fairy Yaoo rolled her eyes, “It’s lucky to have gotten out alive. Although being a Shadow Sect Outer Disciple is good, you must also stay alive, right?”

Fu Changsheng only realized then.

It seemed he hadn’t told the two that he had already captured the Cloud-devouring Beast, only keeping it in the Five Elements Space without taking the Demon Pill yet. He smiled and said:

“You two needn’t worry, the Cloud-devouring Beast has already been vanquished by me!”

“What?!”

“Really?!”

As these words came out.

Cao Qingyun and Fairy Yaoo instantly looked at Fu Changsheng, with a surge of joy in their eyes. They hadn’t figured out where the Cloud-devouring Beast was kept in Blood Saber Sect, yet Fu Changsheng had completed the task in less than half a day since entering Blood Abyss Mountain.

“Brother Lio, you’re truly amazing!”

Cao Qingyun looked at Fu Changsheng with full admiration.

Beside him, Fairy Yaoo’s gaze towards Fu Changsheng added a touch of respect apart from her initial curiosity, “Brother Lio is indeed extraordinary!”

The task is complete.

This means the three of them would truly become the Outer Disciples of Shadow Sect thereafter.

Cao Qingyun laughed and said:

“Brother Lio, Fairy Yaoo, from now on, we are comrades. I am the eldest son of the current Patriarch of the Fifth-Grade Cao Family in Jinzhou. In the future, should you need help from me or the Cao Family, just yell!”

Unlike those already seasoned cultivators.

Cao Qingyun was more sincere and straightforward!

Fu Changsheng pondered for a while and decided not to disclose his true identity. Fairy Yaoo gave him a mysterious feeling; although they overcame hardships together, certain boundaries must be maintained.

Fairy Yaoo was evidently also keeping her origin to herself.

The group flew for several days.

Seeing they had crossed the border into the Celestial Dao Sect’s region, Fu Changsheng scanned with his Divine Sense and said, “There is a Rainbow Cloud Valley thirty miles away; let’s go check it out!”

A distance of thirty miles.

For the Purple Mansion, it was reached in an instant.

Rainbow Cloud Valley was nestled within surrounding mountains, with a unique terrain; the valley’s terrain undulated, surrounded by peaks reaching the clouds, forming a natural barrier, isolating it from the outside world. The valley entrance was narrow, with only a winding path leading outwards, flanked by steep cliffs covered in moss and vines, appearing deep and mysterious.

“Oh, the clouds in Rainbow Cloud Valley can automatically block Divine Sense probing!”

Cao Qingyun muttered with surprise.

With great interest, his body flickered, landing first on the high ground of Rainbow Cloud Valley.

The clouds in the valley were sometimes dense, sometimes thin, like a light veil enveloping everything within the valley.

Fu Changsheng and Fairy Yaoo landed in the valley one after another.

Cao Qingyun, after exploring a bit, excitedly said, “Brother Lio, Fairy Yaoo, this place has a naturally cloud-covered terrain, supplemented by an array, making it perfect for concealing one’s aura. How about we settle here?”

Entering the Celestial Dao Sect.

Doesn’t guarantee protection from them.

After all, they are from the Southern Celestial Continent, and if their identities are discovered by them, they might be detained and interrogated about why they appeared here.

Seeing Fairy Yaoo had no objections, Fu Changsheng nodded:

“Alright, then I’ll trouble Qingyun to set up the array.”

Cao Qingyun waved his hand repeatedly, then his expression became solemn. He patted his storage bag, and with a flash of dawn light, a series of array flags streamed out. As he moved his technique, the array flags accurately positioned themselves in various locations:

“Heaven and earth as the foundation, clouds as the barrier, concealing aura, leaving no trace.”

As the spell fell.

Buzz!

The runes on the array flags instantly lit up one by one.

The clouds in Rainbow Cloud Valley seemed to be drawn by some force, swiftly gathering around the array, forming a thick cloud barrier.

Cao Qingyun withdrew his technique with self-satisfaction:

“Brother Lio, Fairy Yaoo, the array I just set up is the ‘Earth Vein Locking Qi Array.’ It uses mountain ranges as the ‘dragon’s spine,’ water veins converging as the ‘eye of qi,’ and takes advantage of the natural terrain to form a natural barrier. Even if Nascent Soul cultivators come, they cannot decipher its mysteries. We can rest here peacefully, waiting for the teleportation out of the Cangling Realm.”

After speaking.

He flicked his sleeve.

Dozens of Middle-Grade Spirit Stones were embedded in the core of the array, further stabilizing its operation.

In the valley’s underground, the three collaborated to establish a Cave Mansion with four Secret Chambers. After exchanging a few words, each returned to their Secret Chamber to meditate and rest.

Entering the Secret Chamber.

Fu Changsheng set up an array.

For added safety.

He donned the Mysterious Robe before using his mind to enter the Five Elements Space.

From the Forbidden Land in Blood Abyss Mountain, he hastily stored the Cloud-devouring Beast into the Five Elements Space. This journey was continuous, and with outsiders around, he hadn’t had the chance to observe how the Cloud-devouring Beast was doing in the Five Elements Space.

Besides.

The Cyan Flood Dragon was seriously injured this time.

He needs to find some Spirit Pills and Spirit Medicines to temporarily stabilize its condition.

Of course.

But first.

He must extract the Inner Pill from the Cloud-devouring Beast. Otherwise, when teleporting out, in the presence of the mysterious elder of the Shadow Sect, he wouldn’t dare to haphazardly release the Cloud-devouring Beast from the Five Elements Space!
