Lu Changsheng pondered in his heart.

After he left the Enforcement Hall earlier, he felt an elusive sensation of being watched and speculated it might be related to Xiao Xiyue’s master.

Now, hearing this, he was almost certain.

It must be Lady Meng who, for some unknown reason, suspected him of killing Meng Yibai and thus reported him.

But luckily, Caiyun True Immortal had just seen him and had rescued him from danger.

“It seems, I should properly express my gratitude to Xi Yue when the time comes,” he thought.
...
“I also wonder if this Caiyun True Immortal could discern my mid Foundation Establishment cultivation level.”

Lu Changsheng hesitated.

Although he had a jade pendant gifted from a Nascent Soul Immortal sister, able to mask the magic aura,

Lu Changsheng was unsure whether the pendant could block the Divine Sense of a Nascent Soul Immortal.

At this moment, Lu Changsheng missed his Misty Sky Bead.

If he had the Misty Sky Bead, he would have no fear of a Nascent Soul Immortal’s scrutiny.

As he thought of the Misty Sky Bead, Lu Changsheng’s thoughts drifted to Nangong Mili, then to the child in Nangong Mili’s womb.

“It’s been a year and a half, why hasn’t Nangong Mili’s child been born yet?” he wondered.

Lu Changsheng pondered in his heart.

He had great expectations for the child in the womb of Nangong Mili, the Nascent Soul Immortal.

But by his calculations, Nangong Mili had been pregnant for a year and seven months now.

Even if the child was extraordinarily gifted, it wouldn’t take this long to be born, would it?

After a long casual chat, the small gathering dispersed.

Lu Changsheng originally wanted to visit his nephew Xia Zhaoyang,

however, considering the late hour and that he didn’t have a Sensing Talisman for his nephew, he decided against it.

He would have Xia Zhiyue write him a letter later.

As he left Qingyun Sect, Lu Changsheng did not delay. Controlling a purple flying shuttle, he turned into a streak of light and flew towards Bi Lake Mountain.

…

Night had fallen deep.

Outside Bi Lake Mountain.

“My lord, this is one of the weak spots of our ‘Bi Water Sky Blue Great Formation,ʼ” said Yu Ninghu, with a pallid face and sunken eyes, to a man in black robes standing beside him.

“It has only been a month since then; Lu Changsheng and the others surely haven’t altered the Great Formation or redeployed it.”

The man in black robes looked at the misty and hazy Great Formation before him, formed seals with his hands, and offered up a fist-sized black bead.

“Buzz—”

As the black bead’s faint light swirled, streaks of black mist, like little snakes, surged towards the weak point of the Formation before them.

Since he dared to sneak into the family’s territory clandestinely, he naturally possessed the means.

This bead, named ‘Banishing Pearl,’ was indeed a rare treasure.

Against an ordinary First Grade Great Formation, it could break through silently and without a trace.

Facing a Second Rank Great Formation, as long as one found the weak point and spent some time, it was also possible to rip open a crack.

This was also why he had managed to infiltrate Little Jing Mountain without detection,

because the First Grade Great Formation of Little Jing Mountain was nonexistent in front of his ‘Banishing Pearl.’

“Buzz, buzz, buzz—”

As nine black serpentine streaks from the Banishing Pearl surged on the Great Formation, gnawing persistently, the Formation trembled gently, and the swirling mist gradually dispersed, revealing the interior of Bi Lake Mountain.

“Hmm?”

Inside Bi Lake Mountain, atop Bi Yun Peak in Changsheng Hall, Ling Zixiao, with a graceful and pale face, suddenly opened her eyes.

An Array Plate appeared in her hands.

Seeing the Array Plate quivering gently and the needle rotating, Ling Zixiao immediately realized someone was tampering with the Bi Lake Mountain Great Formation.

She stepped quickly out of Changsheng Hall, looking in the direction indicated by the Array Plate’s needle.

She saw two figures in the dark night, doing something to the Bi Lake Mountain Great Formation.

“Rise!”

Ling Zixiao immediately manipulated the Array Plate, fully activating the Bi Lake Mountain Great Formation.

In an instant.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—”

The previously thin mist enveloping Bi Lake Mountain now churned rapidly, becoming dense with a powerful surge of Spiritual Power emanating outwards,
