Is there Something wrong with playing with unity in the spiritual Circle

Qin Ran held Li An and returned to the ground. Tushan Youyou asked him, "Aren't you going after her? Aren't you worried that something might happen to Li Shiyin?"

"Li Shiyin is no longer the newcomer to the cultivation world that she once was," Qin Ran shook his head. "She should know what's important."

Over the years, Li Shiyin had actually gone out on many sect missions. In terms of experience in handling missions, she had much more than Qin Ran.

"But..." Tushan Youyou said, "Her family is in trouble, it's inevitable that she would lose her composure. At times like this, you should be by her side."

Although Qin Ran had considered things comprehensively, sometimes he also tended to look at issues from an idealistic perspective. He objectively felt that:

Li Shiyin's combat power was already sufficient to easily handle Golden Core late stage opponents; Li Shiyin had received years of his prudent education; Li Shiyin also had a lot of experience in the jianghu.

Taking everything into account, Li Shiyin should be able to handle most things.

But after Tushan Youyou's reminder, he also felt that he should go after her.

At this moment, Chasing the Wind, noticing the movement here, also ran into the peach forest.

"Where did Shiyin go?" he asked. Looking at Li An in Qin Ran's arms, sensing Li Shiyin's sword qi on him, he asked, "Is he Shiyin's child?"

Qin Ran glared at him. Children talking nonsense!

However, now that Chasing the Wind was here, he had a plan B. He said to Chasing the Wind, "Shiyin's family encountered some trouble, she went back to deal with it. But I'm a little worried about Shiyin's safety. Chasing the Wind, go after her quickly and see..."

With his keen senses and some strange beast-like perception, although Li Shiyin had gone far away, Chasing the Wind could still catch up.

Hearing Qin Ran's words, he quickly nodded and said, "Okay!"

A wild wind rose up as he stepped on the wind and flew into the air.

At this moment, Qin Ran suddenly raised his hand and summoned a bubble to envelop Chasing the Wind.

He explained to Chasing the Wind, "This bubble is for you to be invisible. Your physique is too big. Suddenly appearing among the mortals would easily cause panic. ...Unless necessary, you don't need to make a move."

Being enveloped in the bubble was very uncomfortable, especially when running at full speed. Chasing the Wind disliked it very much, but it was Qin Ran's order, so he had no choice but to respond, "Yes."

But at the same time, he was secretly thinking, "Hehehe, once I get over there, things won't be decided just as you say!"

With these little thoughts in mind, the little tiger totem on Chasing the Wind's neck lit up, opening up a passage for him. He rushed out of Danfeng Mountain.

When he arrived at the guardian grand formation of Daojian Sect, the king character mark on his forehead appeared as an identity token again, opening up a passage for him within Daojian Sect's guardian grand formation. He rushed out of Daojian Sect almost without pause, following Li Shiyin's scent and ran after her.

...Chasing the Wind already had the identity token of Daojian Sect disciple. He was the big senior brother of this generation's disciples, if Long Qiqi didn't object.

"Chasing the Wind is impulsive and very naive. His character is not as good as Shiyin's. Why did you let him go to help?" Tushan Youyou didn't understand. "Why don't you go yourself?"

She didn't suggest going herself in the end, because she knew that Qin Ran didn't have such a high level of trust in her.

"I have other things to do," Qin Ran casually replied. "You go mind your own business."

Holding Li An, he walked into Danfeng Mountain to the little wooden house and found Long Qiqi wrapped in a thick quilt, half dead. Qin Ran directly stuffed Li An into her quilt and said, "Help me keep an eye on him."

When the quilt opened, Long Qiqi was very unhappy, but seeing Qin Ran's grave expression, she didn't throw a tantrum.

She could also sense Li Shiyin's sword qi on Li An, but she was smarter than Chasing the Wind by who knows how many times. She asked aloud, "Is this Li Wenv's son?"

"Yes." Qin Ran nodded without saying anything else. He directly instructed Long Qiqi, "He's asleep, watch him sleep; if he's hungry, make him drink some milk. In short, don't let him out of your sight. Pay close attention to all eating, drinking, peeing, pooping, bathing and other matters."

"So... you want me to take care of a baby?" Long Qiqi looked bewildered. "What about you then?"

"I'm going to help Shiyin. The situation is serious, I may not be back for a while." Qin Ran replied. "Plus it's reasonable for you children to take care of children."

Long Qiqi's face darkened. "Please get the hell out."

Note: Long Qiqi has been in human form for eleven years now but is still in the body of a seven year old.

Before Qin Ran left, he emphasized again to Long Qiqi, "Don't feed him any of your weird pills and potions!"

"I won't!" Long Qiqi promised. But who knows if she would have or not, if Qin Ran didn't warn her.

Having gotten Long Qiqi's promise, Qin Ran left the small wooden house.

After seeing Qin Ran leave, Long Qiqi looked down again at the baby in the quilt. Sensing the turbulent sword qi within him, she lamented, "Another genius!"

Coming out of the small wooden house, Qin Ran went straight to Mount Zhugong without pause and arrived at the Cave Master's dwelling.

"What happened in North Chu?" He directly asked Cave Master Gu Yueming.

"Xuanqin intends to unify the Land of Immortal Legacy. And with North Chu being in disaster, it became Xuanqin's first target." Gu Yueming replied.

Having been in charge of the pill concocting house for over a year, the changes in Daojian Sect's disciples were clearly visible to Qin Ran, so Gu Yueming treated him very nicely.

Also, from a geographical point of view, the surrounding countries near Hengduan Mountains were considered to be within the Land of Immortal Legacy. People from other places would call the people here as from the Hengduan Mountain Region, and those a bit more in the know would call them people of the Land of Immortal Legacy.

"Unify?" Qin Ran frowned, not understanding. "How can a mortal country unify things?"

After all, this was an immortal cultivation world...

"They have the support of Cloud Heaven Sect." Gu Yueming said.

Cloud Heaven Sect was the largest sect within Xuanqin country, comparable to North Chu's several largest sects.

Hearing this, Qin Ran naturally asked, "Why isn't Daojian Sect making a move?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yueming looked at Qin Ran in surprise. He was surprised that Qin Ran didn't have a clear grasp of the stakes involved.

"Why should we make a move?" He asked back instead.

Qin Ran was startled, only then starting to analyze the benefits involved.

First of all, this was an immortal cultivation world. For the large sects, the changes happening in mortal countries actually didn't have much impact. Regarding the wars between mortal countries, most large sects adopted a hands-off approach. As for why Cloud Heaven Sect chose to back Xuanqin, it naturally was due to some strange backscratching deal that had occurred between Xuanqin and Cloud Heaven Sect.

Secondly, and most importantly, even if the sects on North Chu's side wanted to help North Chu, it shouldn't be Daojian Sect... because Daojian Sect itself was currently barely holding on. After all, who knew when Zhican Valley and Boundless Sword Sect would launch another attack.

"Won't Shenlian Sect make a move either?" Qin Ran was unwilling to give up and asked again.

"To come into conflict with Cloud Heaven Sect?" Gu Yueming continued asking back.

In the end, the teachings of Jiejiao and Chajiao were destroyed from backing Zhou during the time of Shang and Zhou. Qin Ran understood clearly and sighed to himself.

Finally he asked again, "Does the Cave Master know about the current situation?"

"Are you planning to make a move?" Gu Yueming looked at him and asked.

Qin Ran hesitated for a moment before nodding, "It seems likely."

Gu Yueming shook his head, "Then you must think it through carefully. The sect will not step in to help you. You'll be acting in your personal capacity."

"But your opponent could potentially be the entire Cloud Heaven Sect."
