Chapter 75: The Bustle of Baoshan Prefecture and the Plans of the Three Nascent Soul Experts!

"The family head, due to your disappearance, was furious and warned Mu Yunye that if anything happened to you, he would crush that young lad. You know, the Mu family has always been intensely competitive, with many vying for the position of the young family head.

"Consequently, Mu Yunye was afraid that something might happen to you, and that's why he mobilized the family's forces to search for you. Of course, no one knew about being slapped by the family head except for a few. When the Mu family's servants came to find you, they assumed you had run away from marriage."

Nangong Shi explained earnestly. Nangong Yunyao's mouth fell open. This time, she was genuinely dumbfounded. Nangong Shi was right. From her earliest years, her father had been entirely indulgent toward her and her elder sister. She couldn't fathom why he suddenly wanted her to marry into the Mu family. She remained saddened by it.

Seeing her expression, Nangong Shi quickly added, "And, Miss, did you really think that after running to the Outer Area, the family wouldn't find you for twenty years?"

Nangong Yunyao was left speechless. Although she enjoyed daydreaming, she was not a fool. The family had numerous methods to locate their members. The most common one was bloodline tracking, and the ancestral stone left at home could also be used for genuine spirit tracking.

This was just for ordinary family members. In her capacity as the second young miss, there was no way her family couldn't find her. Moreover, if her father genuinely wanted to sense the three life-saving powers he had bestowed upon her, he couldn't possibly have missed them.

With this in mind, Nangong Yunyao gave up completely. She had spent thirty years in exile, living in fear and enduring three decades of suffering. In the end, she was informed that it had all been a figment of her imagination.

"If you knew where I was, why didn't you come to explain things to me?" Nangong Yunyao retorted angrily.

Nangong Shi hesitated for a moment but ultimately decided to betray the old family head. "The old family head felt that you had been pampered from a young age, so experiencing some hardships this time might be good. That's why…"

Nangong Shi didn't finish his sentence, but Nangong Yunyao instantly understood. "So, all my suffering over these thirty years was because of my grandpa?!"

Nangong Yunyao's face flushed with anger.

"Great! This old thing, when I was in the family, his mouth was nicer than anyone else's, and he even said that the entire family doted on me the most. However, as soon as I left, he started plotting against me. I'll go back now. I'll definitely let that old thing know how I've suffered for the past thirty years."

She stood up, ready to leave the Yunyao Prefecture and return home. However, the next moment, she was stopped by Nangong Shi.

"Miss, you can't leave just yet."

Nangong Yunyao looked at Nangong Shi and furrowed her brows. "You didn't come to take me back to the family?"

Nangong Shi hesitated for a moment, considering whether nodding would make Miss go mad.

"It's like this. There's a little task that family would like Miss to complete. If Miss can continue to stay on the outer region, it would be best to build a good relationship with the White Snake that just left. This White Snake is not ordinary; if we can establish a good relationship with it, it might be an opportunity for our family to become a Ninth Rank force."

Nangong Shi finished speaking, prepared for Miss's thunderous anger. However, he waited for a long time and heard no sound.

Nangong Shi raised his head to meet Nangong Yunyao's shining eyes.

Nangong Shi's heart sank. It's over.

She was obviously lost in her wild thoughts again.

Nangong Shi's guess was correct.

Lin Xuan refused her because it was too troublesome, but the troubles at home had been resolved. They even sent her to build a relationship with Lin Xuan. It all looked like a plot from a novel.

Nangong Yunyao had some doubts about herself. Is it destined that she must entangle with that annoying, arrogant White Snake? Would it be a sensational and tormented love?

"Old Shi!"

Nangong Yunyao suddenly looked at Nangong Shi with a solemn expression.

"Miss, what are your orders?"

"My grandfather, father, and sister have always been very fond of me since I was a child, and the family has provided me with what I wanted, investing a lot of resources in my cultivation. Now, the family needs my help. It wouldn't be right if I refuse, right?"

Nangong Shi hesitated for a moment and then shook his head. "Miss, if you really don't…"

"I've made up my mind. Since the family needs me, I'll selflessly serve. Go back and tell Father and the others: Don't worry; I promise to take down that White Snake and make it obedient."

"…"

Nangong Yunyao's mouth hung open for a moment.

Then, without waiting for Nangong Shi's response, Nangong Yunyao's figure rushed in the direction Lin Xuan had left.

Nangong Shi watched Nangong Yunyao's disappearing figure and suddenly felt some regret.

"Is the family's arrangement really okay?"

Baoshan Prefecture.

Unlike the usual lively atmosphere, Baoshan Prefecture had been exceptionally quiet lately.

Half a month ago, an order was issued in the Ancestral Temple.

Someon was designated as the future master of Baoshan Prefecture.

With this, the four Nascent Soul forces vying for resources found themselves in an awkward situation.

After battling for a while, they realized that it was all in vain.

Baoshan Prefecture had a new master.

Of course, although they were not happy, most of the cultivators stopped vying for the fixed resource points. Even in this half month, most forces had withdrawn from Baoshan Prefecture to avoid misunderstandings with the Lin family.

However, the Nascent Soul forces weren't among those.

"Hiss!"

On this day, accompanied by the hissing of snake, within a radius of several million square kilometers around Baoshan Prefecture, countless beings raised their heads and watched in shock as a gigantic serpent rapidly approached from the distant sky.

"It's here! The future master of Baoshan Prefecture, the Lin family, has arrived. Rumors say that the Lin family's ancestor is a terrifying White Snake, not just fearsome; its size is unparalleled. I suspect that with its body, even a Nascent Soul cultivator might not be able to defeat it.

"Baoshan Prefecture is going to be very interesting."

A cultivator grinned maliciously as he watched the White Snake in the sky.

"Eh, what do you mean? Didn't the Ancestral Temple give Baoshan Prefecture to the Lin family? Are there any other forces that dare to oppose the Ancestral Temple?"

Beside him, a Golden Core cultivator who had just arrived at Baoshan Prefecture wore a puzzled expression.

"Senior, you might not be aware that Baoshan Prefecture is currently rich in resources, with various resource mines, spirit stone mines, and advanced spirit fields. Moreover, in recent times, there have been hundreds of small and large secret realms.

"It doesn't matter if it's First or Second Rank secret realms, but there are nine Third Rank secret realms, and one Fourth Rank resource secret realm. The temptation of these high-level secret realms is too great. Just think about it; would the forces that occupy these resource points willingly give up their gains because of an order?

"Of course, they wouldn't have the courage to do so if no one supports them.

"Originally, Baoshan Prefecture was contested by the four Nascent Soul forces: the Heavenly Thunder Sacred Sect of Liuyan State, the Mo Yin Sect of Liuyan State, the Sea Emperor Palace of North Sea State, and the Beastmaster Hall of Southern Wilds.

"Except for the Heavenly Thunder Sacred Sect of Liuyan State, the other three Nascent Soul forces have implicitly occupied all the high-level resource points in Baoshan Prefecture.

"Of course, they also gave face to the Ancestral Temple; the three Nascent Soul sects did not occupy the original location of the Baoduan Palace. Within the Baolin Mountain Range, apart from the main peak having a superior Fourth Rank spirit vein, almost all the other peaks have spirit veins. Either they were already there or advanced after the Heavenly Dao Tribulation.

"According to information from cultivators who have been there, the entire Baolin Mountain Range and the Baoduan Palace have a total of three hundred and sixty spirit veins. There are three Fourth Rank spirit veins in total, but the highest one is not among them.

"Besides, there are two primary Fourth Rank spirit veins. Thirty-six Third Rank spirit veins, seventy-two Second Rank spirit veins, and two hundred and forty-nine First Rank spirit veins! The spiritual energy here is incredibly dense, and every once in a while, it rains spiritual liquid."

The speaking cultivator explained, his eyes filled with longing.

Spiritual energy turning into rain!

Where else but in novels could you find such a hidden paradise? If one were to cultivate here, their cultivation would skyrocket like a rocket!

The Nascent Soul cultivator who had been puzzled earlier finally understood.

"These three Nascent Soul sects don't seem easy to deal with! They intentionally gave up the Baolin Mountain Range, thus confirming that the Lin family is the owner of Baoshan Prefecture.

"As for the other resources in Baoshan Prefecture, the Lin family can only silently bear it as these Nascent Soul forces occupy them. After all, they are only a Golden Core force and can't contend with Nascent Soul forces. Even if the Lin family advances to the Nascent Soul in the future, they can only be on equal footing with them. When the three Nascent Soul sects unite, the Lin family won't be a threat."

The explaining cultivator nodded.

"Senior, here's how it is. Starting with these three Nascent Soul forces as leaders, other forces that had initially intended to give up and completely occupy Baoshan Prefecture have also followed suit. They have taken over resource points and not left.

"Of course, such forces are not numerous; most have still withdrawn. After all, when the Lin family advances to a Fourth Rank Golden Core level, even if they can't deal with the three Nascent Soul sects, can't they handle the lower-tier sects?

"So, I said that Baoshan Prefecture will be lively in the near future."

The Golden Core cultivator nodded. He had come to find resources. When he heard that Baoshan Prefecture had a master, he was ready to leave. But now, he saw the situation and thought he could stay a little longer to witness the spectacle.
