It was simply unbelievable.
Just as the Nine-Spirit Primordial Saint had given him the warning, the old man who usually guarded the back mountain had suddenly vanished without a trace. Lěng Yè could not help but connect these two events. Perhaps Yě Jiāxīn’s second great-uncle had also sensed the anomaly in the Dragon Vein and decided to investigate it in depth. Or perhaps this upheaval had been triggered by him in the first place. Either way, it meant the situation was about to become extraordinarily complicated. Yě Jiāxīn had only just stepped into the first stage of the Golden Core realm, and her cultivation was still unstable. Leaving her here would not only make her unable to help, but would also force Lěng Yè to divide his attention to look after her. Therefore, Lěng Yè suggested that she leave temporarily. However, Yě Jiāxīn obviously did not want to part ways with Lěng Yè and refused the suggestion without a moment's hesitation.
"I can take care of myself!"
