"Tch! Why did they suddenly leave this city?" Xuanyuan Xiang'er wondered as she caught her breath, for her condition was really bad after she was affected by the scent of lust. "Damn it! I'm sure it's that damn guy doing! He must have done something to me without me noticing!"

Xuanyuan Xiang'er then stood up, took out his flying artifact, and left after them.

On the other hand, Lu Wan'er also immediately flew after Ling Yun and the others, and she also informed the fox-masked woman that they had already left Feng City, but she still didn't know their destination.

As for Wen Qing, she didn't follow them, but she headed straight for the Central Forest via another route.

.

.

.

"Hey, Yun'er! Aren't we going to the Central Forest? Why are we heading east now instead?" Ling Yu'er asked as she approached Ling Yun, who was standing at the front end of the Icarus.

Ling Yun turned his head and answered her. "Before we go to the central forest, I want to check the Stone Gate that connects this place to the place of those blessed people."

"Hmm? Why do you want to do that? What if they notice us?" Ling Yu'er asked again with a frown, for she felt they could still not face those people, especially since only Feng Ling'er was the strongest among them.

"Yu'er, you don't need to worry about it; those people won't be able to sense our presence as long as they don't exit their realm." Feng Ling'er explained as she walked beside them, and she then asked. "Husband, what are you going to do with those two women? They've been following us ever since we left Feng City."

"Huh?" Ling Yu'er was surprised to hear that, spread her senses, and immediately asked. "Why is Xuanyuan Xiang'er's face so pale? Are you going to allow Lu Wan'er to follow us?"

"Hehe." Ling Yun chuckled at her question. "Xuanyuan Xiang'er has already been exposed to my scent of lust; she probably indulged herself before following us, so you shouldn't be surprised if her face is pale like that. As for Lu Wan'er, you don't need to think about her and just let her to follow us."

"I thought you would capture Lu Wan'er, especially since she is the Sect Master of that heretic sect." Ling Yu'er spoke in surprise.

Ling Yun shook his head. "I will definitely capture Lu Wan'er in the future, but for now, I want all of us to focus on our cultivation, and we will participate in the inter-sect competition, which will take place in two months."

"I see." Ling Yu'er nodded in understanding. "Anyway, why didn't Wen Qing follow us? Didn't she really want to see you?"

"Who knows." Ling Yun nonchalantly shrugged.

Feng Ling'er only smiled at that, for she had already sent Wen Qing a voice transmission just after they left Feng City, and she had told her that Ling Yun wanted to enter seclusion in the Central Forest. 'I'm sorry, Husband. But I couldn't bear to see her situation, so I had to do that.'

After that, Ling Yun flew the Icarus at full speed, for he was impatient to arrive at their destination.

.

.

.

After flying for several hours, Ling Yun and the others finally arrived at the eastern end of the cultivator realm, and there was only a small island with a large stone gate in the middle of the ocean.

Ling Yun then activated the stealth feature on the Icarus, for he did not want any of those people to notice their presence. "So that's the gate that connects the two places, huh?"

"Do you want to go down there, Husband?" Feng Ling'er asked him.

"Yes." Ling Yun nodded and turned towards his woman. "You guys wait here, I still don't know their true strength, so only me and Ling'er will descend to that place."

After the women nodded to him, Ling Yun and Feng Ling'er immediately descended towards the stone gate, and Ling Xi enveloped them in her aura, so no one could see them.

"How to open this gate?" Ling Yun muttered as he touched the stone gate.

Ling Xi then answered him. "You can't open it from here; only those blessed people can open it from the inside."

"Hmm?" Ling Yun raised his eyebrows. "Then how did Michael and Lucifer's envoys get inside?"

"As I recall, the Angel and Demon realm also has a portal within the realm of those people, so they don't need to pass through this stone gate." Feng Ling'er explained to him.

Ling Yun nodded in understanding and turned to Ling Xi. "You should be able to forcefully open this gate, right?"

"Hehe." Ling Xi giggled at that. "It's easy for me to open this gate, but you certainly don't want to enter it now, right?"

"En." Ling Yun simply nodded at her. He didn't intend to go to those people's realm and just wanted to ensure he could easily break through it. So if the war between them really broke out in the future, he would immediately break through to their realm. "Sigh, let's head back now, and we'll go straight to the central forest."

However, as they were about to fly away, the stone gate suddenly glowed, and soon two men walked out.

Luckily, Ling Xi still enveloped them with her aura, so the two men could not see them.

Ling Yun raised his eyebrows, sensing an energy different from the qi coming out from within the stone gate. 'Hmm? So it is Mana? Although it is similar to Qi, it also feels different.'

"Qi and Mana are both heaven and earth energy, so you shouldn't be surprised if the two are similar, but you can't absorb Mana like these men." After Ling Xi explained that, she directly asked him. "What do you plan to do with them?"

'You should read their memories first.' Ling Yun replied as he observed the bodies of the two men.

Ling Xi nodded and read their memories, but she was instantly surprised because she couldn't read them. "Hey, their higher-ups put a barrier on their memories, and if I forcefully read them, then their brains will explode."

Ling Yun sighed after hearing that and thought deeply, and he came up with an idea for the two men, but he wasn't sure he could establish communication with them.

Suddenly, they heard one of the men muttering. "Sigh, those two emissaries sure messed up! Especially that Lucifer emissary, he did as he pleased and is currently fighting with Raguel."

'Hmm?' Ling Yun was surprised to hear that, he had heard about Raguel from Mariel before, but he didn't expect Michael to send him to meet those people, especially since he is one of the angels who look down on humans.

Although those people were called blessed people, they were no different from human cultivators, and Ling Yun thought that Michael had made a foolish decision to send Raguel to meet those blessed people.

"They want to cooperate with us but don't want to obey our rules." The other man spoke as he shook his head. "If they continue to fight like that, our leader will expel them."

The first man nodded in agreement as he gazed into the distance. "According to our history, this place should belong to us, but the arrival of those cultivators in the past has changed everything. They attacked us and took over this place, and those people constantly pressured our ancestors, so they decided to retreat and live in our current realm."

"Yes, I heard that too." The second man replied with a nod. "In my opinion, it would be best if our leader cooperated with Lucifer, and we could attack and take this place from the hands of those savage cultivators."

The first man clenched his fists tightly. "If we can take over this place, we can have fun with those female cultivators, and they will become our slaves forever."

Upon hearing that, Ling Yun's heart boiled; even his eyes had turned blood-red, and pitch-black qi enveloped his body.

However, Feng Ling'er immediately stopped him, for Ling Yun was not ready to face those blessed people.

Ling Yun nodded in understanding, withdrew his power, and calmed himself down. In fact, he didn't really care about other cultivators, but many people were close to him, and he didn't want anything to happen to them.

"Hahaha" The second man laughed loudly after hearing that; he then patted his partner's shoulder. "You don't need to worry. I'm sure our leader won't accept Michael's offer, especially since that Raguel is arrogant and looks down on us so much."

The first man sighed. "For now, we can only patiently wait for them to reach an agreement, and we must prepare ourselves to attack this place in the future."

"That's right." The second man then turned around. "Let's go back; if those cultivators notice our presence, they will capture us."

After that, the two men entered the stone gate again, and Ling Yun gave off his emotion by hitting the stone gate with one powerful punch, causing it to shake violently. "Those bastards! If they dare attack this place, I will definitely slaughter them!"

Ling Xi smiled at his words, especially since she knew Ling Yun's thoughts, and the two men's words made him even more eager to become strong as soon as possible.

Since it was almost night, they boarded the Icarus and flew quickly towards their main destination, the Central Forest.
