Jasper Sun Mountain was filled with loess and broken rocks. There wasn’t any lifeforce or mystic force anywhere.

To most of the disciples, it was like sitting on pins and needles to be placed in such an environment. All of them were the best disciples of their sect or family, so which of them didn’t have the best resources that their family or sect had? The place for their daily cultivation was none other than the place with the most beautiful scenery and excellent mystic force. If the test held here wasn’t life-changing, who would want to grit their teeth and endure it?

However, at this moment, mystic force gushed out, and the wind blew past them. The light wind made all of them feel more comfortable.

Under the moonlight, many looked up to see a valley in the middle of the mountain gus.h.i.+ng up with a mystic force like a fountain.

Ling Wuxia lifted up the opening of her tent and ran out. “Let’s go!”

Junior Brother He said no more and jumped down a steep incline, das.h.i.+ng after his senior sister.

It was too dark right now, and the duo of junior brother and sister senior was way too fast, so the others only realized what happened after a short while.

“Hurry up! Ling Wuxia has already left!”

“Is that where the Grandmaster is staying? Who found it? And why did it suddenly appear?”

“How did they find it, and when?”

“Maybe it just started s.h.i.+ning on its own?”

“This… let’s just go.”

At this moment, the Ye Family brothers and the Zhang family siblings realized it too.

Ye Zhenyan’s face turned pale upon seeing this. “This…” He fished out his sword and made his way over immediately.

After two steps, he turned around and yelled at Ye Mingguang. “What are you still doing there? Can’t you see the opportunity?”

Ye Mingguang hurriedly followed behind him. After spending two days with his cousin, he roughly knew what he was like – moody, enigmatic, and extremely tyrannical.

He was able to put up a tough front with Ye Zhenfan and Ye Zhenxing, but not his third brother. Whether it was power or intelligence, they were too far apart. Fortunately, Ye Zhenyan didn’t discriminate against him like the others did. Even though he shouted at him a lot, Ye Zhenyan treated him like his own younger brother, making him feel much better.

On the other hand, Zhang Jingyu was bewildered by the situation. “Brother, what’s going on?”

“Let’s go take a look,” Zhang Rulin muttered.

The other disciples that were dispersed around had the same reaction too.

For a moment, the thirty disciples on Jasper Sun Mountain hurried to the valley in the middle of the night.

Amongst these people, two figures could be seen moving up and down, one pursuing the other closely.

“Where are you planning to hide!?” Junior Sister Zuo shouted, and a ray of mystic light shot out along with a flying stone toward Lu Mingshu.

Lu Mingshu spun back and used her sword-light to strike the stone away. “If was you, I wouldn’t trade power for trickery. Why are you using a hidden weapon? That’s not the path to true power.”

Being jeered at by Lu Mingshu, Junior Sister Zuo was about to blow her top. “Who the heck do you think you are? Why is a Nine Jade Palace disciple acting like a b.a.s.t.a.r.d in front of an Ancient Jade Summit disciple?”

“Oh!” Lu Mingshu sneered. “That’s because I’m first on the New Generation Ranking, while you’re nothing!”

After saying that, she jumped onto Little Daze. Little Daze neighed and dashed ahead madly, far away from Junior Sister Zuo.

Junior Sister Zuo wanted to eat Lu Mingshu alive right now. I’m an Ancient Jade Summit elite, yet she says I"m nothing? She gritted her teeth and went after Lu Mingshu with great haste.

Lu Mingshu seemed relaxed, but in fact, that was the opposite of how she felt at the moment.

Since she’s able to enter Jasper Sun Mountain, this Junior Sister Zuo is obviously an elite of Ancient Jade Summit. She may not be as good as Kou Wei, but she’s at least on Ye Zhenyan’s level. This type of opponent wasn’t someone she could defeat easily. If Lu Mingshu wanted to defeat her, she would have to put in her maximum effort. However, everyone on this mountain was against her, so she wouldn’t last at that rate.

“Little Daze, speed up!” Being held up by Junior Sister Zuo, she wasted a lot of time.

Having followed Lu Mingshu since it was young, Little Daze knew what she was thinking. It struggled for a while before it started to fly.

“You’re flying!” Lu Mingshu was pleasantly surprised. She caressed its wings. They’ve really grown a lot.

Little Daze neighed proudly and flapped its wings with all its might, taking her in another direction.

There were already quite a few people standing there when she reached the valley.

The Zhang siblings, Ling Wuxia and her junior brother, and more.

Watching Lu Mingshu get down from her mount, many looked at her with envy. It’s not that they didn’t have their own mount, but flying mounts were rarely seen among Harmonization Realms.

This was the first time it had flown, so Little Daze was now panting hard. Lu Mingshu caressed it and pacified it before letting it go back into the portable stable.

“Senior Sister!” Junior Sister Zuo puffed, running toward Ling Wuxia as soon as she saw her.

As soon as she was going to complain, Ling Wuxia put her to a stop with a look and patted her back. “Junior Sister has worked hard. Rest for a while first.”

“No, I’m okay…” Junior Sister Zuo looked at Ling Wuxia walking toward Lu Mingshu in a daze.

“Miss Lu.” Ling Wuxia greeted her with a thin smile.

Lu Mingshu returned the courtesy but said nothing. Let’s see what she has to say now.

“Miss has brilliant skill; I admire you very much.”

Lu Mingshu looked at her in shock. Ling Wuxia saying this showed that her junior sister had already sent her a message about the situation, and saying it out loud like this showed that she wasn’t embarra.s.sed that she sent someone to spy on Lu Mingshu.

Well, she’s right. Upon entering the mountain, we’re all opponents, and there’s no reason why she shouldn’t do something like that. It could even be said that she’s way smarter than the others.

“Does Miss Lu have any opinion on the situation right now?” Ling Wuxia sounded like she was sincerely asking Lu Mingshu for an opinion.

Lu Mingshu blinked her eyes before glancing over at the Zhang siblings, who were preparing to take in all information.

“Ah, that should be my question to Miss Ling. You’re the elite of Ancient Jade Summit, and you are obviously more aware of what the mountain is like compared to me, who knows very little about it. I’m sure you would have a better suggestion.”

Hearing her excuse, Ling Wuxia didn’t seem to be angry. She flashed Lu Mingshu a wide smile. “Miss Lu, I’ll be straightforward right now, seeing the situation. You are new in Beiming, and the Bon Voyage Fleet is not a big power, so it can’t give you much help. With your limited information, fighting with us now or taking a step forward before us now, the chances of you winning are still going to be small. Instead of having both sides suffer, why don’t we team up? What do you think?”

“Team up?” Lu Mingshu narrowed her eyes. “How do we do that when there’s only one person who"s going to win?”

Ling Wuxia shook her head, smiling. “Miss Lu, who wins is up to the Grandmaster. Even if you defeated all of us, you would still be on the losing end if he doesn’t approve of you.”

This made sense, and it was the truth, but Lu Mingshu couldn’t help feeling suffocated hearing it. “Then what does Miss Ling suggest we do?” she asked in monotone.

“We’re in an unknown situation right now, and it’s not going to benefit any of us if we act against each other right now. I suggest we ascertain the real situation first before we decide on our next move.” Ling Wuxia turned to the Zhang siblings. “Brother Zhang, what do you think?” she asked loudly.

Zhang Rulin and Zhang Jingyu exchanged a glance. “We agree with Miss Ling.”

Ling Wuxia then continued to ask the other disciples who were present for their opinion, and no one refused.

“Miss Lu, how about you?”
