"Alright, let's set off now..."

Zhu Chen had just taken two steps with the Taiyin Jade Rabbit.

Unexpectedly, in the next second, a golden letter suddenly flew through the air, streaking across the sky before hovering precisely in front of him.

The letter was shimmering with a pale golden light, and several ancient runes were engraved on it.

"This is……"

Zhu Chen's eyes lit up!

He recognized it as a unique communication mark of the Qin people of Bulao Mountain.

The Immortal Mountain sent him a message at this time; I wonder what it was about!

Zhu Chen reached out and took the letter off, then scanned it with his divine sense.

This letter was sent by Qin Changsheng!

The other party's wording was extremely simple, only saying that there was something important to discuss and asking him to go to the Qin tribe at Bulao Mountain as soon as possible.

He added at the end that Shi Hao and Qin Hao were both in the clan, so he didn't need to worry. Zhu Chen pondered for a moment after reading the letter.

He had dealt with Qin Changsheng several times and knew he wasn't the type to make baseless accusations.

Since the other party has specifically sent a message, it's most likely that they have something important to say.

In addition, since Shi Hao and Qin Hao are both in Mount Bulao, his trip there would be a good opportunity to discuss the events following the previous siege with them in person.

"Let's skip Celestial City for now and go to Immortal Mountain with me."

Zhu Chen put the letter away and said something to the Taiyin Jade Rabbit on his shoulder.

The Lunar Jade Rabbit asked with a curious look, "Immortal Mountain? Is that the territory of the Qin clan? I heard it's quite large. I've never been there. This is a good opportunity to go and have a look..."

"You'll find out how big it is when you get there."

Zhu Chen didn't explain further and immediately activated his escape light to fly towards the nearest teleportation array.

The Moon Jade Rabbit followed closely behind!

Over the next few days, Zhu Chen, accompanied by the Taiyin Jade Rabbit, traveled through several teleportation arrays, heading towards the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm from its entrance.

Given the speed of the Taiyin Jade Rabbit at the True God Realm, it would probably take quite a while to reach the Immortal Mountain. Zhu Chen thought she was flying too slowly, so he simply picked her up and carried her on his shoulder, making their speed more than twice as fast.

The Moon Rabbit, perched on his shoulder, seemed quite content with its leisurely life. It looked around curiously the whole way, chattering away and asking questions about anything new it saw, showing no signs of boredom.

After flying for several days, the two finally arrived at the outskirts of the Qin tribe's territory in the Immortal Mountain.

The Qin clan's territory is situated amidst a continuous range of spiritual mountain ranges. The mountain gate is built in an open area halfway up the mountain, flanked by sheer cliffs thousands of feet high, with a wide white jade staircase extending from the foot of the mountain all the way to the front of the mountain gate.

On either side of the stone steps stood a row of Qin clan disciples, their armor gleaming, their defenses impeccable.

When Zhu Chen landed in front of the stone steps with the Taiyin Jade Rabbit, the gatekeeper disciples immediately came to greet him.

"Fellow Daoists, please wait. Our Qin Clan has recently banned visitors, and outside cultivators are not allowed to enter. If you have business to attend to, you can first submit your visiting card at the inn at the foot of the mountain, and we will make arrangements after the clan elders approve it."

The leading young disciple, with a square face, cupped his hands in greeting to Zhu Chen, his tone polite yet carrying an unyielding firmness.

Just as Zhu Chen was about to say that he had been invited by Qin Changsheng, a bright light shone from the depths of the mountain gate before he could even utter a word.

The beam of light arrived extremely quickly, almost instantly sweeping from inside the mountain gate to the stone steps.

After the light dissipated, Qin Changsheng's figure emerged directly from the light.

Today, he was wearing a dark blue robe with a dark gold belt around his waist, and he looked much more energetic than when they met in the Immortal Ancient Secret Realm. "Young friend Zhu Chen, you've finally arrived."

Qin Changsheng smiled and cupped his hands in greeting to Zhu Chen, then his gaze fell on the Taiyin Jade Rabbit on Zhu Chen's shoulder. He raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "And this is...?"

"The Jade Rabbit of the Moon, my friend."

Zhu Chen gave a brief introduction.

The Lunar Jade Rabbit perched on Zhu Chen's shoulder and waved its front paw at Qin Changsheng: "Greetings, Clan Chief Qin! I've heard you have a lot of delicious food here?"

Qin Changsheng chuckled at her words, then stepped aside to make way for Zhu Chen, gesturing for him to come inside: "Let's talk inside. I've prepared some spiritual tea there."

Zhu Chen nodded upon hearing this, and then walked in directly in the direction Qin Changsheng pointed out.

The Qin clan disciples guarding the gate recognized Qin Changsheng and immediately knelt down, shouting in unison, "Welcome, Ancestor!"

After calling out to Qin Changsheng, these people secretly glanced at Zhu Chen and the Taiyin Jade Rabbit's backs, and a fine layer of cold sweat seeped out from their foreheads.

Especially the Qin clan disciple who had just spoken up to stop people.

His back was now completely soaked with cold sweat.

He never dreamed that the young man and the rabbit spirit he had just stopped would receive a personal welcome from his ancestor. What was Qin Changsheng's status within the Qin clan?

That was the patriarch who always kept his word!

Normally, even the clan elders rarely get to see him, yet he personally came to the mountain gate to welcome a young man. If word got out, the entire Qin clan of Immortal Mountain would be shaken to its core.

"See? This is the consequence of your inability to recognize talent. Get ready to be punished..."

As Zhu Chen led the Lunar Jade Rabbit up the stone steps, it deliberately turned back and stuck out its tongue at the Qin clan disciples kneeling on the ground, its ears twitching proudly.

Upon seeing this, the disciples immediately lowered their heads even further, not daring to look at it again.

……

After welcoming Zhu Chen and the Taiyin Jade Rabbit into the Immortal Mountain, Qin Changsheng led them directly to a reception hall inside the mountain gate.

The place was decorated in an extremely simple and elegant style, with several stone tables and benches scattered around, and on the tables were a pot of steaming spiritual tea and several plates of spiritual fruit.

Shi Hao and Qin Hao were already waiting in the hall. When they saw Zhu Chen enter, they both stood up at the same time.

"Brother Zhu Chen!"

Shi Hao and Qin Hao shouted in unison. Zhu Chen nodded to them in response.

At this moment, Qin Hao suddenly noticed the Lunar Jade Rabbit on Zhu Chen's shoulder and asked curiously, "Brother Zhu Chen, this rabbit is quite cute, where did you get it?"

As he spoke, he reached out to touch the ears of the Jade Rabbit.

The Moon Jade Rabbit slapped his hand away with one paw and angrily rebuked him, "What do you mean by calling me that? I have a name, the Moon Jade Rabbit. You can just call me Sister Jade Rabbit."

Qin Hao was taken aback by her tone and awkwardly withdrew his hand.

Zhu Chen sat down at the stone table, picked up his teacup, took a sip, and then looked at Qin Changsheng, asking, "Clan Chief Qin, you said in your letter that you had something important to discuss. What is it?"

Qin Changsheng smiled calmly and said, "It's not me looking for you, it's someone else. Someone wants to see you..."

Zhu Chen was taken aback upon hearing this: "Someone wants to see me? Who is it?"

"It is I, the immortal, who have come to find you..."

At that moment, a voice suddenly floated out from the void, landing in Zhu Chen's ears like a light bell.
