Wu Shattered Star River

“Uh…”

The group was stunned. News of Jiang Han's exploits in the Heavenly Court clearly hadn't reached them; they hadn't received any updates.

Doubt and disbelief filled their eyes.

The woman in the red cloak sneered, “Why don’t you just say you slaughtered the Jade Emperor?”

Jiang Han smiled and said, “My lady can send someone to the Heavenly Court to inquire about the news, and you’ll know.”

“Oh?”

Jiang Han's attitude surprised the group of experts. Could what Jiang Han said be true?

Did Jiang Han really kill the Jade Emperor's grandson? Did he have the ability, the courage?

Yu Xi cupped her hands and said, “Greetings, esteemed sirs and madams. I am Yu Xi, from the Yu family of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion. Yu Changhong is my ancestor. What Jiang Han said… is true. You can verify it.”

“Wow!”

Yu Xi's words caused an uproar, especially among the Immortal Venerables in the back, who were filled with astonishment.

The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion was renowned and prestigious. Yu Xi announcing her family background greatly increased the credibility of the news.

“Good!”

The red-cloaked woman's eyes lit up. She said, “Jiang Han, is it? If you really killed the Jade Emperor's grandson, you are a distinguished guest of my Azure Cloud Mountain. Let’s go, let’s enter the mountain first.”

Jiang Han waved his hand, and the Divine Sound Gold Mantises that hadn't died flew over. Jiang Han collected all the Divine Sound Gold Mantises.

The red-cloaked woman glanced at them and asked curiously again, “Jiang Han, did you tame these Divine Sound Gold Mantises before? Or did you tame them after coming to the Ancient God Star Region?”

Jiang Han smiled and said, “Replying to my lady, I only tamed them after coming here.”

“Impressive!”

This feat made the red-cloaked woman look at Jiang Han with new respect. She said, “Don’t keep calling me ‘my lady.’ I'm not that much older than you. I'm called Qingluan. You can call me by my name.”

The red-cloaked woman seemed to have a straightforward personality, with a boldness that didn't lose out to men. She waved her hand and led everyone towards the interior.

The white mist inside automatically dispersed, revealing a passage. Flying inside, Qingluan landed directly on a plaza.

There were many soldiers here, and many buildings were built on the nearby hills, densely packed, and it was unknown how many people lived there.

“Greetings, Miss Luan! Greetings, esteemed sirs and madams!”

The soldiers all looked at Qingluan with reverence. Many men also had admiration in their eyes, indicating that Qingluan was well-loved by these soldiers.

Qingluan waved her hand and led everyone along a jade stone path towards the top. This jade stone path wound upwards, like Mount Yingxu, it was a mountain road.

Jiang Han, Yu Xi, and Immortal Venerable Wu Yun followed behind. They discovered that many immortal arrays were arranged on this mountain road.

Qingluan and the other Immortal Kings didn't fly up directly but walked up the mountain road, indicating that the immortal arrays here were very strong and already activated.

The group moved quickly, spending half an incense stick's worth of time to ascend the mountain.

After going up, Jiang Han was shocked again.

The summit of Azure Cloud Mountain was very wide, covered with magnificent buildings and pavilions. There was also a faint white mist, making it feel more like a fairyland, with very beautiful scenery.

“Miss Luan!”

Qingluan led them forward, and people saluted Qingluan along the way. She didn't put on any airs and nodded and smiled in response.

“Is this Qingluan the daughter of Azure Cloud Immortal Emperor?”

Jiang Han was a little curious. Azure Cloud Immortal Emperor wasn't young, so how could he have such a young daughter?

This Qingluan seemed to be only in her thirties or forties. How could she have cultivated to the Immortal King realm at this age?

Although it felt like she had just broken through not long ago, her talent was enough to kill Wei Wushen. Shouldn't she be at the top of the Hidden Dragon List?

However, considering that Azure Cloud Immortal Emperor had betrayed the Heavenly Court, it was understandable that the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion didn't put Qingluan on the list.

Walking all the way inside, Qingluan stopped outside a large palace complex in the north. She said to an Immortal Venerable, “Qingyu, take the three of them to settle down first.”

Qingluan looked at Jiang Han again and said, “I will arrange for someone to go to the Heavenly Court to inquire about the news. If the information is confirmed, you can join Azure Cloud Mountain. At that time, come directly to my Qingluan Army to serve.”

“Alright!”

Jiang Han and the others cupped their hands and followed a middle-aged man away.

The three were taken to a courtyard. The middle-aged man pointed to the courtyard and said, “The three of you will live here for the time being. Before your identities are verified, please do not leave this courtyard.”

“Once your identities are confirmed, and you join the Qingluan Army, you will be able to move freely.”

Jiang Han nodded and said, “Thank you, Lord Qingyu. I don't know how long it will take to verify our identities?”

Qingyu thought for a moment and said, “The Rakshasa Realm has been turbulent recently, and the people from the Intelligence Division have all been dispatched, so it may take several months or half a year.”

“Alright!”

A few months was nothing. Jiang Han and the others could just go into seclusion for a while, and the time would pass, so they didn't care too much.

Staying in this Azure Cloud Mountain was very safe, and they could cultivate with peace of mind for a period of time.

Once their identities were verified, they could move freely. By then, they could become familiar with the people here and inquire about the matters of Cloud Maple Immortal King and the others.

“Buzz~”

After Qingyu left, Immortal Venerable Wu Yun released a soundproof barrier and asked, “Young Master, isn't this the same as directly announcing your identity? If the Azure Cloud Immortal Emperor has a bad relationship with the master, we will be in big trouble.”

Previously, Immortal Venerable Wu Yun thought that the three of them would hide their identities, join Azure Cloud Mountain, figure out the situation, and then consider whether to reveal Jiang Han's identity.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Han revealed it as soon as he arrived? He said that he killed the Jade Emperor's grandson. Azure Cloud Mountain could just send someone to the God and Devil Battlefield and the Heavenly Court to inquire, and they would know that Jiang Han was the son of the Eastern Heavenly Emperor.

Jiang Han didn't explain. Yu Xi said with a wry smile, “Even if we don't say it, they will investigate. After all, both you and I are Immortal Venerables, and Jiang Han released the Divine Sound Gold Mantises. If you were the Azure Cloud Immortal Emperor, wouldn't you want to find out the details before letting us join easily?”

“That's right!”

Jiang Han nodded and said, “Our identities will be exposed sooner or later. Since Azure Cloud Immortal Emperor defected from the Heavenly Court, he definitely doesn't have a good impression of the Heavenly Court. Unless he has a deep hatred with my father, he wouldn't dare to touch me.”

“Actually, I revealed my identity because I wanted to meet Azure Cloud Immortal Emperor and ask him about my father's whereabouts.”

“I think… ordinary people shouldn't know their whereabouts. Only someone of Azure Cloud Immortal Emperor's level would know.”

Immortal Venerable Wu Yun was still a little worried, but Yu Xi smiled and said, “Looking at Qingluan's attitude, their family should have a deep feud with the Heavenly Court.”

“Big Brother Wu, don't worry. Besides… as long as the Eastern Heavenly Emperor is fine, even if Azure Cloud Immortal Emperor has a feud with him, he wouldn't dare to kill Jiang Han.”

“Hmm!”

Immortal Venerable Wu Yun was slightly relieved and didn't say more.

“Let's go into seclusion and cultivate!”

Jiang Han waved his hand and said, “After they verify our identities, I will find a way to request an audience with Azure Cloud Immortal Emperor. Perhaps… we will soon know the whereabouts of my father and the others, and we can reunite with Cloud Maple Immortal King and the others.”
