Chapter 1094: Found
fellow."As soon as they saw Yuan Hao, he froze in place. Zhu Yu Chun was overjoyed and immediately brandished his two spirit blades, rushing forward. However, just as the two top-grade spirit blades...Over the past six months, County Princess Yu Ya has sensed fifteen people who also bear the Mo Wei Star Chart on their bodies. However, none of these individuals are the palace-dressed woman Lu Xia Tian is looking for.

Only when he arrived at Qingding City did the little white dog sense the other party's aura.
Even at this moment, although Yu Ya's life was in his hands, Lu Xia Tian still didn't fully trust her. Life wasn't the most terrifying thing for a cultivator. What was truly terrifying was a living death. At least Yu Ya preferred he activate the third restriction of the Yin-Yang Soul Curse Talisman, resulting in his death, rather than reveal the secrets behind the Mo Wei Star Chart.
...And throughout the entire nation, people like Ya who bore constellations of ink on their bodies were certainly not few in number. Lu Xia Tian, out of caution, had seen a few people, two of whom were only at the Qi Refining stage, and there were also Golden Core cultivators. Besides the woman in court dress, there were even two cultivators whose cultivation levels were slightly higher than Ya's....
Some people who have these faint star patterns on their bodies hold many secrets. Lu Xiaoteng couldn't help but feel that this was intentional. Maybe these people came from the same place, belonged to the same race or organization.
“Perhaps I’m not only facing this woman in palace attire.” Lu Xiaoteng touched his chin. At least before knowing the secret behind Mo Weixingtu, Yu Ya's words couldn't be entirely trusted.
As for this Mo Wei star map, Lu Xia Tian wasn't particularly interested. What he wanted now was just to get the Ling Shui crystal jade back. As for everything else, it had nothing to do with him. He already had many treasures on himself, enough to cultivate to the late Nascent Soul stage, and there was no need to be too ambitious for the time being.
Out of the forest, Lu Xiaotian transformed again, becoming a scholar in a thin blue robe with a sallow face.
In the center of Qingding Prefecture, there stood a tripod reaching dozens of meters high. Compared to Xiangnan Prefecture, Qingding Prefecture, as one of the core seven prefectures of Xiang Nation, was significantly larger.
Above the azure giant cauldron, there seemed to be an aura of some kind, swirling in mid-air. It rose above Qingdingzhou City.
Cultivators walked the streets, and various spiritual beasts came and went incessantly.
"Woof woof!" The little white dog was excitedly wagging its tail and barking softly towards the south.
A hint of a smile flickered across Lu Xiaotian's face. He was all too familiar with this move from the white puppy. It meant they were close to their target. Even if the other party used advanced disguise techniques or special means to alter their aura, Lu Xiaotian had personally tried it; even the Shape-Shifting Pill couldn't deceive the Soulhound's nose.
"Well done." As Lu Xiaotian approached a Yuan-family forge, he saw a woman wearing a circular stand-up collar, tight waist, and a purple phoenix moon robe. Though dressed in fine attire, she had an icy expression. She was sitting in a carriage pulled by three nine-tiered spirit cranes, heading towards a giant peak emanating with dense spiritual energy from the sky. The carriage boasted a silver white canopy, exuding an overwhelming aura that intimidated ordinary low-level cultivators who dared not approach. Three other maids in palace attire each commanded a nine-tiered crane.

“This woman in the palace attire sure is making a grand entrance,” Lu Xia Tian’s eyes swept past the carriage carrying the master.
In that area where spiritual energy was abundant, the mountain gate was shaped like the character "yuan." It was the home of the Yuan family, one of the ten renowned cultivating families with a long history in the country of Xiang.

Since the Emperor of Qinling founded the Immortal Dynasty, the former school system in the Chiyan Continent had nearly been wiped out. However, this was only a superficial change. Although the schools were gone, major trading firms and cultivating families rose to prominence.
After countless years of development, these immortal cultivating families are no longer just single-surname clans. In order to strengthen their power, immortal cultivating families also constantly absorb powerful outsiders. Cultivators can also accept apprentices and find masters.
At this time, those huge cultivating families and sects, while having some differences, were essentially similar in their core principles. As for those trading houses, they were even more similar to the systems of sects.
The most renowned figure among the Yuans is undoubtedly Grand Cultivator Yuan Tianfang, whose ice-based magical techniques and supernatural powers are unmatched by most. In addition to other members of the Yuan family, there are also numerous powerful guest cultivators, exceeding a dozen in number.
In the entire cultivation world, the Yuan family could rank among the top six. Besides possessing a vast territory in Qingding City, comparable to Lingxiao Palace's domain, they also held numerous fertile lands rich in resources and spiritual creatures in other Immortal Cities.
Seeing the carriage drive into the mountainous region belonging to the Yuan family, Lu Xia Tian naturally wouldn't dare to trespass on their territory. With his current strength, he was certainly not yet capable of confronting a behemoth like the Yuan family head-on.
“Seems like I’ll have to look for another opportunity.” Lu Xiaotian stood quietly on a cliff in a pine forest. After waiting for so long, he naturally wouldn't lack patience.
Besides, even if the other party left the Yuan family, as long as they were still in Qingding City, it would be inconvenient to take action. No matter what the other party said, they were a Yuan Ying expert. Even if Lu Xia Tian could kill them, it would take some effort, and the resulting fluctuations in magical power would be enough to attract the attention of other Yuan Ying experts.
Moreover, the other party possesses an extraordinary artifact that is hidden so well even the True Illusion Ice Eyes cannot see through its whereabouts. Making another move could very likely result in a chase similar to what happened last time in the secret realm.
“This woman in palace attire was obviously someone of high status. First, find a chance to investigate her identity. As for the timing to make a move, we can only wait and see.” Lu Xiaoteng made up his mind, his figure flickered, and he vanished from the crooked neck tree on the cliff.
He reappeared, already within the city walls. He was on a street closer to the Yuan family than his previous location. Just as he was thinking of a way to find someone from the Yuan family and ask about the woman in palace attire's identity, he saw several cultivators flying over from the direction of the Yuan family.
“Eh” Lu Xiaitian’s face showed a hint of surprise. The leading pretty woman was someone he used to know. But this person wasn't in Wangyue before, how could she appear in Xiangguo on the Chiyan Continent It doesn’t matter anyway, this woman’s cultivation level wasn’t high, yet she had reached this place. It seems like her luck is pretty good. She has already reached the late stage of Jindan.
“What a stroke of luck! Well then, I was just wondering who to ask. Since you came out from the Yuan family, I might as well ask you.” Lu Xiaoteng smiled and sent a voice transmission to the woman.
“Zhao Li, an old friend met under the moonlit sky, comes alone to pay a visit.”

Zhao Li's face changed upon hearing the transmission. She looked around, but couldn't sense who was transmitting to her. Looking down the street, people bustled about. The other party's cultivation level far surpassed hers. If it were a Jindan cultivator sending her a message, even if she couldn't pinpoint the person immediately, she would at least be able to sense the general direction. But now, looking around, she had no clue.
She was no longer using the name Zhao Li here, at least not in the Chiyan Continent. Few people knew her original name. The fact that the other person could call out her real name and even know where she came from surprised her.
"It seems the other party must be from Wangyue Wuxiang. But who could it be" Zhao Li thought over and over in his heart.
"Dan Dao, what's wrong with you" a middle-aged cultivator with thick eyebrows and big eyes asked.
“I just remembered something I hadn't dealt with yet. You all go ahead first, and I'll catch up later.” Zhao Li hesitated for a moment before replying.
"Alright, just don't delay too long, friend. Otherwise, Elder Wuyuan will be hard to appease if he finds out." The middle-aged cultivator with prominent eyebrows and eyes nodded, then continued on with the other three.. Two sea bowl-sized eyes shot out. Those originally lively fish eyes, after separating from the Star-Eyed Stonefish's body, solidified at a visible speed, transforming into a bead brimming with starl...
