Chapter 477 Prelude to Leaving
Ye Yirui's words silenced the hall instantly. The Grand Elder coughed lightly and then said:

"Since the young master has already spoken, we will definitely cooperate fully. However, this is an internal matter of our Medicine King Valley, so there's no need to involve outsiders!"

The elder's words were pointed, and everyone present understood them. Ye Yirui naturally understood who he was referring to.

After all, the previous commotion was so great that these elders knew that two big shots had come to Medicine King Valley. They had previously thought that the two had come to ask for medicine, but after Ye Chengbi's incident, they knew that the two had other purposes for coming to Medicine King Valley.

Ye Yirui glanced indifferently at the Grand Elder and said:

"Elder, I invited Venerable Ranxi to treat my brother. The Venerable One disdains to get involved in the internal strife of Medicine King Valley, so you can rest assured."

Upon hearing Ye Yirui's words, the Second Elder's eyes darted around, and he said:

"Young Valley Master, is the Venerable Ranxi you mentioned Wei Yunxi from the Haoran Sect of the Western Regions?"

"Exactly."

“Young Valley Master, Venerable Ranxi is a successor of the Immortal Physician Sect, sharing the same origin as our Medicine King Valley. We should take the initiative to befriend her. It was the right thing for you to invite her to Medicine King Valley as a guest under the pretext of treating Xiao Chen.”

Ye Yirui remained calm despite the Second Elder's complete 180-degree change in attitude, while the Third Elder coldly snorted:

"The young valley master said that she invited this person to treat Ye Yuchen. If you want to befriend them, you can go and visit them directly and see if they are willing to see you."

"Third Elder, are you deliberately trying to argue with me? Doesn't Ye Yirui represent Medicine King Valley just because she's the young master of Medicine King Valley?!"

"Tsk, I wonder who was it that was just now shouting that the young valley master had neglected her duties and demanding an explanation from everyone."

"I'm just stating the facts. We almost let the Tree of Life be stolen in full view of everyone. Wasn't that wrong?"

"Second Elder, you've said everything you wanted to say."

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Old Ancestor Ye slammed his hand on the table beside him and said coldly:

"Alright, shut up, all of you! What kind of time is this to be fighting amongst yourselves? Don't you want to make a fool of yourselves enough?"

The two elders glared at each other, then fell silent. Ye Yirui simply stood respectfully, without saying another word.

Old Master Ye stroked his beard and said:
"Third brother, you should cooperate with the young valley master to clean up our own sect first, so as not to give evil cultivators any opportunity to take advantage. The incident with the Immortal Transformation Sect is a lesson for us."

"Yes, ancestor!"

The Third Elder immediately and respectfully agreed.

The news that evil cultivators took advantage of the Five Domains Grand Competition held by the Immortal Transformation Sect and killed many Nascent Soul cultivators has already spread. After all, the commotion caused by the self-destruction of the immortal artifact that day was too great, and Medicine King Valley, which is also in the Central Domain, naturally received the news as well. That is why Patriarch Ye attaches such importance to it.

Ye Yirui and the Third Elder then left the council hall.

Only then did Elder Ye's face darken as he said:
"Elder and Second Elder, there is a priority in everything. If Medicine King Valley really becomes the backyard of evil cultivators, no matter how much you do, you will only be doing the work for others. Don't put the cart before the horse and suffer losses."

Without waiting for their response, he disappeared from the seat of honor.

The First Elder and the Second Elder exchanged a grim glance before leaving the council hall.

Huaxianmen Western Region Guest Peak

Upon receiving the message from her disciple via flying sword, Yu Ling shook her head. Hao Yan, standing beside her, raised an eyebrow and asked, "What's wrong? Ran Xi isn't coming back in time?"

Yu Ling nodded and said:
"Yes, she's been held up by some things in Medicine King Valley and will be staying there for a few days. Let's set off first and not wait for her."

Haoqing thought for a moment and then said:
"She didn't go alone this time; Xun Kun from the Kunmo Sect accompanied her. I guess she was worried about letting Xun Kun come back alone, which is why she was delayed."

"It's alright. Since that's the case, let's set off as planned. Ancestor Haoyi is still waiting for us!"

Two days after the three reached an agreement, the Haoran Sect, along with the Mingjian Sect and the Loose Cultivator Alliance, set off to return to the Western Regions.

When Venerable Wutong of the Kunmo Sect received Xun Kun's flying sword message, his brows furrowed. He had originally planned to get closer to Xun Kun on his way back to the Southern Region, but things were different now. Xun Kun had already become a Nascent Soul cultivator, and he didn't want the matter of Jin Can to create a rift between them.

Jin Can hadn't seen Xun Kun at the camp for the past two days, so she inquired everywhere and even went to Xun Yan, but Xun Yan didn't see her at all. Jin Can was so angry that she jumped up and down, but there was nothing she could do. She could only go to Venerable Wutong.

"Ancestor, Xun Kun is not in the temporary cave."

Wutong put away the flying sword in her hand and said calmly:
"Jin Can, after you return to the sect this time, you should go into seclusion to cultivate and improve your cultivation level. Don't bother Xun Kun anymore."

He won't be taking on any disciples for the time being, and even if he were to seek a partner, he wouldn't choose a lowly Foundation Establishment cultivator like you. You're of no help to him, so don't even think about it.

Upon hearing this, Jin Can's face turned pale, clearly indicating that the patriarch was no longer on her side this time.

Seeing that Jin Can was biting his lip and not responding, Venerable Wutong's voice grew even colder as he said:
"Jin Can, did you understand?"

"Yes, Ancestor, Jin Can understands."

After saying this, her eyes reddened, she bowed respectfully, and left Wutong's cave. She turned around and ran back to her residence, where she wept bitterly.

This incident made Jin Can realize that she was not strong enough and had no right to strive for anything. After returning to Kunmo Sect, she calmed down and began to cultivate, no longer hoping for things that did not belong to her.

After returning to her base, Han Lian of the Northern Extreme Cold Sect spent most of her time consolidating her cultivation in her cave, except for contact with Xun Kun, Yun Chen, and Ran Xi. The ten years in the sealed land had a great impact on her. She originally thought she had missed the opening of the "Misty Snowfield", but she did not expect that although they had been in the sealed land for ten years, it was only ten days for people outside.

So when Ranxi and Xunkun came looking for her, she sent a message by flying sword to Venerable Hanxiao in the sect, inquiring about the entrance to the "Misty Snow Domain", but she has not yet received a reply.

After receiving compensation from the Immortal Transformation Sect, the cultivators from the other four regions have begun their journeys away from the sect. After discussing with the Venerable One who was leading the group, she decided to wait for the Ancestor's reply before setting off.

The day after Xianyao and Xianfeng's deep conversation, Xianyao went to visit Ranxi at Kefeng, but she found no one there. Yunxi and Xunkun had left Huaxian Sect the day before, but she hadn't received the news, so she met with Venerable Haoqing instead.

"Fellow Daoist Xianyao, what business do you have with Ranxi? If it is convenient, I may pass on your message."

Xian Yao was surprised that Ran Xi wasn't at the Immortal Transformation Sect, and could only say:

"If that's the case, then I'll wait for Ranxi to return and then come looking for her?"

"Ranxi has something to do and will not be returning to the Western Regions for the time being. Haoran Sect will be leaving tomorrow. If you have any urgent matters, you can send her a message."

Xianyao had no choice but to nod in agreement and then left Guest Peak.

Another day passed, and Hanlian finally received a reply from her master. Looking at the content, she didn't know whether it was good news or bad news. If they set off in time, they could catch the opening of the "Misty Snowfield". However, this time the entrance to the "Misty Snowfield" was in the deepest part of the polar gale belt.
