Wu Shattered Star River

There is a teleportation array on Blackscale Mountain that can directly teleport to Heavenscale Mountain. After Cang Xunni teleported back, he rushed into a nearby mountain, where there was a hidden teleportation array. He teleported from the teleportation array to the main peak of Heavenscale Mountain.

"Hmm?"

Inside a palace on the main peak, Cang Xunni opened his eyes. From a nearby palace, Cang Huang shot out.

Cang Xunni flew directly into the palace. Cang Ri Tian saw that his expression was somewhat serious and asked, "What's the situation?"

Cang Huang and several Dao Ancestor Realm experts followed in. Cang Xunni said, "Jiang Han just went to the Blackscale Secret Realm and was almost ambushed by him. He has a super perverted escape technique. I couldn't even sense his existence. I was afraid Yao Ao was nearby, so I didn't dare to stay and came back immediately."

"Escape technique?"

A look of surprise appeared on Cang Ri Tian's face. He said, "What kind of escape technique is it that even you can't detect it?"

"I don't know!"

Cang Xunni shook his head and said, "If there hadn't been fluctuations when entering the secret realm space, I might have been ambushed by him."

"Moreover, I feel that he has made great progress in the use of Primordial Force. I released an attack once, and he actually withstood it. Although he was injured, his defense has improved a lot."

"You guys go down first!"

Cang Ri Tian waved his hand, signaling the Dao Ancestor Realm experts to retreat, leaving only Cang Xunni and Cang Huang. He activated the palace's formation and said, "I received news that Jiang Han might have gone to the Land of the Gods a few years ago. Perhaps... he gained something up there?"

"Ugh..."

Cang Xunni and Cang Huang looked at each other, their eyes filled with astonishment. They didn't know this news.

Cang Huang asked, "Your Majesty, when did you receive this news? Is it accurate?"

Cang Ri Tian said, "I only received it half a year ago. The reason I was able to receive this news is because Jiang Han has been up there for several years without any news."

"So that one was a little panicked and wanted to surrender to me. That's why he passed the message over. It should be very reliable."

"Half a year ago?"

Cang Xunni frowned and said, "Why didn't Your Majesty call me out of seclusion earlier? We could have swept through everything back then."

"How would I know that Jiang Han would come back so quickly?"

Cang Ri Tian sighed and said, "I thought he would be gone for at least a few decades. Besides... I thought he went up there to scout ahead and might not come back. Your realm wasn't stable yet, so I wanted to wait until you were stable before taking action."

"However... I feel like the problem isn't that big!"

Cang Xunni thought for a moment and said, "I feel that Jiang Han's combat power hasn't improved too much. Otherwise, he wouldn't have escaped immediately and wouldn't have even thought about fighting me."

"Oh?"

A cold light flashed in Cang Ri Tian's eyes. He said, "Tell me in detail what happened at that time."

"Alright!"

Cang Xunni explained the situation at that time in detail. After Cang Ri Tian and Cang Huang listened, their expressions became much more relaxed. Cang Huang said, "Jiang Han's combat power shouldn't have improved too much. At least, he doesn't have the ability to fight a Dao Ancestor Realm eighth level expert. Otherwise, he would definitely have launched a strong attack on the Grand Elder. Moreover, he has only been up there for a few years. How could he have improved so much?"

"Let's investigate first!"

Cang Ri Tian said, "Activate all our scouts to investigate the situation. Also, let all the spies who have defected to us over the years be dispatched."

"Now is the time for them to show their worth. Let them submit a pledge of allegiance. If they don't, we will exterminate their entire clan after we pacify the Land of Bitter Winter!"

After speaking, Cang Ri Tian looked at Cang Xunni and asked, "How is your realm stabilizing?"

"Almost there!"

Cang Xunni said, "Fighting dozens of battles shouldn't be a problem. As long as Jiang Han's combat power hasn't improved to the eighth level, then we should have no problem pacifying the Land of Bitter Winter this time."

"Then launch it!"

Cang Ri Tian nodded and said, "Investigate the situation first. Also, prepare well. As long as we determine Jiang Han's situation and confirm that he hasn't brought back any strong experts from the upper realm, then we will send troops to pacify the Land of Bitter Winter!"

"Alright!"

Cang Xunni and Cang Huang retreated and began to deploy troops.

Soon, countless orders were issued, countless scouts were mobilized, and many secret orders were sent to the Four Regions.

Over the past few years, many large clans have secretly colluded with the Heavenscale Clan. Now, the Heavenscale Clan needs them to submit a pledge of allegiance. If they don't try their best to help this time, then their fate will definitely be very miserable in the future.

...

On the other side, Jiang Han didn't rush to leave. After escaping, he quietly sneaked back to Blackscale Mountain, wanting to look for another opportunity.

However, after he returned, he didn't find Cang Xunni. He secretly captured an Emperor-level expert and took him away. After soul-searching, he found that Cang Xunni had already teleported back to Heavenscale Mountain.

"Go!"

Jiang Han didn't go to Heavenscale Mountain because it was meaningless. He escaped all the way towards the entrance and exit. After arriving here, he crushed the jade talisman. Yao Ao opened the seal, and he returned to the secret realm of the Law Heavenly River.

Yao Ao saw that Jiang Han's expression wasn't very good and asked, "No chance?"

"Um..."

Jiang Han recounted the situation. He said, "How about I go in now and massacre for a while to delay their attack time?"

"I feel that Cang Xunni's realm is basically stable. After this probing, they should launch an attack very quickly."

"I don't think it's very meaningful!"

Yao Ao shook his head and said, "You can massacre some Heavenscale Clan members in a few rounds, but before long, they will definitely disperse the Heavenscale Clan. Cang Ri Tian is a particularly ruthless person. For the sake of imperial ambitions, he won't care about the life or death of his clansmen."

"Whether he cares or not is his business!"

Jiang Han said coldly, "Killing is my business. I just want him to understand a principle. If he dares to forcibly attack, I have the ability to slaughter most of the Heavenscale Clan."

"Even... in the future, his clansmen won't be able to go out. I'll kill one every time they come out. They can only hide in cities or in the mountains."

"That's fine too!"

Yao Ao nodded and said, "However, you have to be careful. Although you have escape techniques, they aren't omnipotent. Cang Ri Tian's attacks are very ferocious. Be careful of being ambushed by him."

"I will be careful!"

Jiang Han thought of something. He said, "Uncle Yao, you don't need to guard here anymore. Anyway, if they attack, there's no point in being here. They can invade from any region. You should go back and sit in command and coordinate."

"Yes!"

Yao Ao agreed. "Then this place won't be sealed. I'll go back first. I can't respond to you anymore. Everything depends on yourself. Be careful in everything."

"Okay!"

Jiang Han didn't waste any words. He turned around and entered the passage, returning to the Central Region again.

After Jiang Han left, Yao Ao left the secret realm of the Law Heavenly Earth and teleported all the way back to Holy Yao City.

After returning, he immediately summoned a subordinate and asked about Pei Zhu's situation, whether there was any news from the Western Region, and whether there were any unusual movements on Mount Boundless.

After Jiang Han returned, Yao Ao had already sent a message to Ye Tianfan, asking him to arrange for some high-level scouts to squat down at the foot of Mount Boundless, so that when Pei Yuanhu descended to the lower realm, there would be a chance to detect him.

Pei Zhu was still traveling around with Yao Xi. There was no movement on Mount Boundless, and it was unknown whether Pei Yuanhu had descended to the lower realm...
