Mo Tianxiao's surprise for Huangfu Yunteng and the Zi family had already been discovered. However, despite searching every remote corner of the Eastern Region, the two groups of people still found no trace of them.
It even made the two elders of the Zi family suspect for a moment that Zi Ling'er and her companion had already fled the Eastern Region.
"Didn't he want me to release Zi Ling'er's parents?"
"Spread the word: in seven days, at the Huangfu family residence in the Immortal City, if that Li Yu doesn't have the guts to show up, I will skin Zi Ling'er's parents alive in front of everyone."
Having found no trace of the other party for several consecutive days, Huangfu Yunteng decisively opted for a more sinister method.
The other party's insults were nothing more than an attempt to provoke him, to make him feel that without the Huangfu family, he was nothing.
If he were a bit more young and impetuous, he might have released Zi Ling'er's parents because of this and fought him fair and square.
But terribly sorry, he was going to rely on the Huangfu family's power to run amok. So what if a lowly rogue cultivator had great abilities?
Without background or status, one should just obediently lie low. Trying to play the hero to save someone—does he even have the qualifications?!
After spreading the news, Huangfu Yunteng headed home. He would quietly wait for the prey to deliver itself to his door.
Meanwhile.
Deep within the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace, surrounded by immortal qi, inside a magnificently luxurious grand hall.
A peerless figure reclined on a luxurious immortal chair high up in the hall. A thin, cicada-wing-like white gauze wrapped around her flawless jade-like body. She propped herself up with a slender arm, while a section of her fair, smooth calf was exposed to the air, inciting infinite imagination.
"Gulp..."
Mo Tianxiao swallowed hard, took a deep breath, looked at the cold, empress-like woman before him, and bowed respectfully with cupped hands: "Senior."
"Zi Ling'er greets the Palace Master!"
Compared to Mo Tianxiao, Zi Ling'er appeared extremely nervous and restrained.
The person reclining before them was the top authority of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace, the sect master of a top-tier faction, known as the most beautiful and powerful Yaoguang Empress of the entire Eastern Region!
A Quasi-Emperor expert!
In this era where Great Emperors did not appear, a Quasi-Emperor was the ceiling of the cultivation path, the ultimate pinnacle all cultivators looked up to.
How could she, a lowly Nascent Soul cultivator, have the merit or ability to come into such close contact with an existence like this?
Standing on the other side of Mo Tianxiao, Lin Nannan stared at Su Muyao with her beautiful eyes, which sparkled like stars, and said in a soft, sweet voice, "What a pretty big sister!"
Hearing this, Su Muyao slightly raised her eyes. A breathtakingly beautiful curve formed at the corner of her mouth, and her cold voice rang out, "What a sweet mouth this little girl has. Being so cute, she will definitely grow up to be a stunning beauty who could bring down nations."
As colorful lights swirled in her eyes, Su Muyao paused for a moment in surprise. "Huh?"
An existence at her level could somewhat sense a person's karmic luck. With just one more glance, she realized that this little girl, Lin Nannan, was not simple.
She hadn't expected that the Eastern Region could produce such a person.
She originally thought that the karmic luck of the entire Eastern Region had been completely divided up among the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace, the Huangfu family, and the Heavenly Note Pavilion. The appearance of Lin Nannan gave her quite a surprise.
Shifting her gaze, it landed on Zi Ling'er. A trace of a smile appeared on Su Muyao's face. "A Natural Charm Physique. Not bad at all."
"Brat Mo, considering you brought me two good seedlings, I won't hold the matter regarding Little Xue against you."
Only then did Su Muyao finally rest her gaze on Mo Tianxiao. A hint of surprise flashed in her watery eyes. "Peak Profound Communication Realm? Kid, let me give you a piece of advice: the path of cultivation requires one to be grounded. Popping too many pills is not good."
To break through from the peak of the Soul Formation Realm to the peak of the Profound Communication Realm in just five short years was absolutely impossible through normal cultivation.
"Senior must be joking. I just encountered a small fortuitous opportunity, I didn't pop any pills."
Mo Tianxiao's face looked slightly awkward. As expected, breaking through too fast easily caused misunderstandings.
Fortunately, he only broke through after leaving the sect; otherwise, he might have been interrogated by his master again.
"I heard from Elder Lin that you ran into some trouble? Tell me, who dared to provoke a kid like you." A trace of interest appeared on Su Muyao's face, seemingly curious about what kind of trouble Mo Tianxiao had encountered.
"It's like this..."
Mo Tianxiao then recounted Zi Ling'er's ordeal.
After listening to the whole story, a glint of light flashed in Su Muyao's eyes, and she said in an icy tone, "That piece of trash from the Huangfu family? Daring to threaten my personal disciple, it seems it's time to teach the Huangfu family a good lesson."
Huangfu Yunteng, the prodigy and true dragon of the Huangfu family.
However, in Su Muyao's eyes, he was nothing more than a slightly luckier piece of trash.
Hearing Su Muyao's words, Mo Tianxiao immediately breathed a sigh of relief. "Exactly, exactly! What does the Huangfu family count for? The Eastern Region is definitely under Senior's say. What right do they have to be so arrogant and dare to threaten your personal... disciple?"
"Eh? Personal disciple??"
Mo Tianxiao was dumbfounded. What personal disciple?
Who was whose personal disciple?
For a moment, he didn't process the meaning behind Su Muyao's words.
Beside him, Zi Ling'er and Lin Nannan also stared at each other with wide eyes, not knowing what was going on.
Seeing their bewildered expressions, Su Muyao revealed a smile as magnificent as a snow lotus blooming at the peak of a snowy mountain.
For a moment, Mo Tianxiao was mesmerized. Such a fairy-like figure was actually a lily? It was intolerable to the heavens!
"This little girl, and Zi Ling'er, from now on, they are my personal disciples. Do you have a problem with that?"
Su Muyao's cold voice pulled Mo Tianxiao back to reality.
"What?"
"You're not leaving even one for me?"
Hearing Su Muyao's overbearing words, Mo Tianxiao's heart skipped a beat, secretly thinking things were bad.
He had worked hard the entire way, only to have them snatched away by this woman, Su Muyao??
Didn't that mean he suffered a massive loss!
He originally intended to abduct both Lin Nannan and Zi Ling'er to the Demonic Sect, or at the very least, take one of them.
He never imagined that such an aloof woman like Su Muyao would be so domineering as to take them both.
"No, wait? Senior, um, could you do me a favor and leave one for my Demonic Sect?"
Mo Tianxiao rubbed his hands together with a flattering look on his face. "Earlier, Aunt Lin said that since she accepted the Huangfu family's gift, Zi Ling'er couldn't be taken into the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace. By doing this, aren't you publicly slapping the Huangfu family's face?"
"Hmph, so what about the Huangfu family? Why should I need to explain my actions to others?"
Su Muyao snorted coldly, seemingly not putting the Huangfu family in her eyes at all.
They were just an aristocratic family whose ancestors luckily produced a Great Emperor. If one really thought about it, they were just so-so.
At this moment, raging waves surged in Zi Ling'er's heart. What did she just hear?
The current Palace Master of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace, the Yaoguang Empress, wanted to take her as a personal disciple!?
She was actually favored by the Palace Master of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace!
At this very moment, she could clearly feel her own heartbeat, so powerful it felt like it would jump out of her chest, and her palms began to sweat.
If she could become the personal disciple of the Yaoguang Empress, then what would the Zi family amount to? What would Huangfu Yunteng amount to!
But... listening to Senior Brother Mo's tone, it seemed he didn't want her to join the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace.

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts...

Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.
