At this moment, Yang Mu came to his side. With a heavy expression on his face, he whispered, "Uncle Yun, I'm afraid this matter isn't over yet."
"Like father, like son. Li Qian is a vindictive person. Today, he came back empty-handed. The anger in his heart must not be gone. He will think of other ways to take revenge." Yun Fengzi slowly opened his mouth as he suddenly thought of something. He looked towards Yang Mu and Fairy Blue Luan and said, "You two should also leave this place as soon as possible."
"You mean the Li Family will make a move against us?" Yang Mu probed. He and the Blue Luan were both grand characters, so it wasn't easy for them to deal with them.
"There is such a possibility, it's best to be careful." Yun Fengzi softly said, "You absolutely cannot take your lives as a joke. I think it's better for you to return to the Door of Immortality for a period of time. It won't be too late to come out after the storm."
Upon hearing Yun Fengzi's words, Yang Mu didn't say anything more. He turned his gaze towards Fairy Blue Luan only to see her nodding her head lightly, "I have no objections."
"Alright, you can leave as soon as possible. I'll have two Saints escort you." Yun Fengzi said.
"Right." The two of them nodded in agreement.

In the depths of the Nanhua Imperial Palace, Lin Yuan and a few ministers were in the middle of a discussion when a figure walked in and said respectfully: "Reporting to the Sacred Master, there is a patriarch of the Li Family outside requesting an audience."
"Li Qian?" Lin Yuan's expression froze for a moment, as if he was thinking about why Li Qian came looking for him. He then said to that person, "Let him in."
After that person left, Li Qian arrived at the hall not long after. He looked up at Nan Lin Yuan, clasped his hands, and said, "How have you been, Saint Lord?"
"Why are you here?" He was a Saint of the seventh step. If it wasn't for Li Qian who took the initiative to please him and promised to serve the Southern Flower Kingdom, he would have long since annihilated the Li Family and would not have allowed the Li Family to exist in the Southern Flower City.
"Please, Saint, help me." Li Qian cupped his hands and said.
"Who are you?" Lin Yuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. It seemed that Li Qian had met with some big trouble. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come looking for him.
"The Jade Peak Immortal School's Yang Mu killed my son and destroyed the evidence. I implore the Holy Lord to avenge me. Li Family will be forever grateful in the future and vow to serve the Holy Lord with his life!" Li Qian said in a low voice. His eyes contained a trace of chilliness. He wanted the Jade Peak Immortal School to pay the same price!
"Yang Mu!"
Upon hearing this name, a hint of coldness flashed past Southern Lin Yuan's eyes. He remembered clearly how mighty Yang Mu was when he fought on behalf of Shangguan Yi's team during the wedding banquet. He completely disregarded the prestige of his Southern Flower Kingdom.
And now, Yang Mu had actually killed the son of Li Gan?
"I heard that Yang Mu and Qin Xuan are very close, and Qin Xuan is an enemy of the imperial court. That's why, I thought of coming to the Sage's place and destroying both of them to prevent future troubles!" Li Qian said again.
Before coming here, he had deliberately asked about what had happened before, and he was extremely shocked in his heart.
So it turned out that Qin Xuan, the younger generation member, was actually so outstanding. Under the protection of Yi Sheng, he led the Sky Xuan expert to obtain nine consecutive victories, stepping on the face of Nanhua Empire beneath his feet. One could only imagine how much Lin Yuan hated him.
And he just so happened to be able to borrow this hatred to have Lin Yuan help him take revenge for his lost son.
As Li Qian expected, at this moment, a trace of anger was burning in Lin Yuan's heart. However, he was the lord of the dynasty, and had experienced countless trials and hardships, so how could he be controlled by Li Qian with just a few words. He glanced at Li Qian and asked, "How do you want me to help you?"
"As long as the Holy Lord sends someone to restrain Yun Fengzi, there's no need for him to worry about anything else. I alone will be enough." The only person that could threaten him was Yun Fengzi, the others were like ants in his eyes.
"What can you give me?" Lin Yuan asked again. Naturally, he would not give up for nothing.
"Li Family vows his loyalty and devotion to the dynasty, without any hesitation!" Li Qian said with an extremely serious expression, as if he was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
"Say something practical." Just with a word of promise, he had actually wanted him to send someone to deal with it. Wasn't this a bit too simple?
"Old fox!" Li Qian cursed in his heart as his gaze flickered. Gritting his teeth, he said, "If the Saint Lord is willing to lend me a helping hand, Li Family will become a vassal force of the Nanhua Empire, taking the Saint Lord as his master!"
Upon hearing Li Qian's words, Lin Yuan's face revealed a brilliant smile.
Had he finally given in?
In the past, the Li Family only expressed goodwill towards the Southern Flower Dynasty, and in reality, it was an independent power. But if the Li Family agreed to submit, then in the future, the Li Family would not only be the Li Family, but also an official under the Southern Flower Empire.
Since the Emperor had given the order, none of the subjects dared to disobey.
Moreover, in the future when he descends to the Southern Flower Kingdom, the Li Family's leader must go and meet him. This is his duty as an official.
"In that case, this matter shall be settled." Lin Yuan nodded slightly towards Li Gan. He then looked towards the outside of the hall and said in a clear voice: "Have Lin Qi come in to see me."
"Lin Qi!" Li Qian's eyes lit up. Lin Qi, the head of the Qilins, was going to let him attack?
Moments later, Lin Qi arrived at the main hall. When he saw Li Qian, he could not help but reveal a strange expression in his eyes. He then looked up at Nan Lin Yuan and bowed: "Greetings Saint Lord."
"Accompany Li Qian." Lin Yuan said.
When Lin Qi heard this, he looked at Li Gan in astonishment. However, he did not ask anything further. Since it was a command from a Saint Lord, he only needed to follow it. He did not need to ask why.
Not long after, two powerful presences descended from the sky above the Jade Peak Celestial Sect. Two figures descended from the sky. They were Lin Qi and Li Gan.
At the same time they appeared, a few figures walked out from a different garden and the old man in the lead was Yun Fengzi. When he saw the two people in front of him, his expression immediately darkened.
He naturally knew Lin Qi, the head of the Qilins. Who didn't know him?
At this moment, Lin Qi appeared. It was evident that Li Qian had gone to the Southern Flower Kingdom for help.
"I can't believe you asked him to do this. It seems you've paid quite a price for it." Lin Qi was the leader of the Qilin Legion, a peak Fourth Order Saint. If Li Qian hadn't paid a heavy price, Lin Qi wouldn't have acted.
"As I said, you will all pay the price. Since you've already said it, naturally, you will do it." He released his will, instantly engulfing the entire courtyard. After a moment, he frowned as he glared at Yun Fengzi, shouting, "Where's Yang Mu?"
"What do you think?" Yun Fengzi looked at Li Qian with disdain, as if he was looking at an idiot.
Li Qian's pupils abruptly constricted as he instantly realized something.
In order to prevent him from bringing people to kill him, before he came here, Yang Mu had already left. That old bastard Yun Fengzi was truly scheming!
