Soon after, Lunhui Laozu organized a force from the Reincarnation Palace and brought them before Ye Yunfei.
"Young Master Ye, these are our Reincarnation Palace's elite troops. From now on, they are entrusted to you. Though their strength is limited, they represent our participation in the war! Furthermore, our Reincarnation Palace must retain a portion of its forces to defend the headquarters," Lunhui Laozu said to Ye Yunfei.
"Laozu, I wish to accompany Ye Yunfei as well," Su Qingluo stated.
"No, Laozu, I want to go out and experience the world. Staying within the Reincarnation Palace may be safe, but it is no longer conducive to my growth," Su Qingluo answered.
"Very well then. If you go out, you must be careful in all things," Lunhui Laozu paused momentarily, then nodded, indicating his agreement.
"Ye Yunfei, from now on, I must trouble you to look after Qing Luo a bit more for our Reincarnation Palace," Lunhui Laozu looked at Ye Yunfei and spoke.
Upon hearing Lunhui Laozu's words, Su Qingluo was stunned for a moment, her pretty face then brimming with pleasant surprise. She understood that for Lunhui Laozu to say this was effectively giving his consent for her and Ye Yunfei to be together. Even if Lunhui Laozu had not agreed, she would still have steadfastly chosen Ye Yunfei. However, deep down, she yearned for both Lunhui Laozu and the Reincarnation Palace to approve. So naturally, seeing Lunhui Laozu's stance now, she was incredibly excited.
Ye Yunfei, of course, grasped the implication in Lunhui Laozu's words, and could not help but feel a bit more goodwill towards him.
"Laozu, rest assured, I will spare no effort to protect Qing Luo. These three jade slips are personally crafted by me, Laozu, please accept them. In the future, if the Reincarnation Palace needs any assistance, activate these slips and send me a message. I will receive it promptly and come to help," Ye Yunfei took out three communication jade slips and handed them to Lunhui Laozu as he spoke.
The meaning was clear: if anything happened to the Reincarnation Palace in the future, Ye Yunfei would certainly lend a hand.
"Haha… Excellent. In that case, I shall not stand on ceremony," Lunhui Laozu laughed heartily and accepted the three jade slips.
"Laozu, I will set up a batch of Formations at the entrances, exits, and some key locations within the Reincarnation Realm. This will enhance the Reincarnation Palace's defensive capabilities," Ye Yunfei thought for a moment, then spoke again.
"That would be great, Ye Yunfei, please proceed quickly. Laozu, Ye Yunfei's skill with Formations is very high. The formations he sets up might not even be breakable by Advanced Earth Immortals," Su Qingluo immediately said. Having witnessed Ye Yunfei's formation abilities herself, she knew that if Ye Yunfei helped deploy a series of Formations within the Reincarnation Realm, it would undoubtedly significantly elevate the palace's defenses.
"Hehe, very well then. Ye Yunfei, I'll trouble you," Lunhui Laozu said with a smile.
Looking at Ye Yunfei now, he felt like a mother-in-law appraising a son-in-law—the more he looked, the more satisfied he became.
And so, Ye Yunfei immediately set to work. He deployed several hundred Formations at the entrances and exits of the Reincarnation Realm—formations for sealing, concealment, illusion, defense, attack…
"Ye Yunfei, I had no idea your mastery of Formations was this profound!" Lunhui Laozu, who had followed alongside watching Ye Yunfei swiftly deploy one powerful formation after another, couldn't help feeling both shocked and delighted.
Ye Yunfei handed over all the formation flags for these arrays to Lunhui Laozu, entrusting him with their control.
This way, Earth Immortals from the outside world who were not permitted entry would find it considerably difficult to enter the Reincarnation Realm.
Next, Ye Yunfei moved within the Reincarnation Realm and deployed large numbers of Formations in various crucial locations, such as the ancestral grounds of the Reincarnation Palace, the assembly hall, the residences of some core high-ranking members, and the dormitories of the palace's disciples.
"Alright, Laozu, it is time for us to leave," Ye Yunfei said to Lunhui Laozu after finishing the Formations.
Subsequently, Ye Yunfei and Su Qingluo, along with a contingent of Reincarnation Palace's troops, departed from the Reincarnation Realm.
"I wonder where the Five Immortals Sect's headquarters is," Huang Shang suddenly spoke up.
"The Five Immortals Sect's headquarters?" Ye Yunfei was taken aback.
"Yes, I would also like to pay a visit to the Five Immortals Sect's headquarters," the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm chimed in as well.
"You two are thinking of plundering the Five Poisons Sect's toxic substances and venomous insects?" Ye Yunfei quickly grasped Huang Shang and the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm's meaning.
They must have their eyes on the Five Immortals Sect's poisons and insects!
"Correct. In fact, the Five Poison Immortal King was an ancient elder of the Five Immortals Sect. Due to certain circumstances, he entered the Colorless Abyss to live in seclusion, only to be slain by you. I can utilize the Five Poison Immortal King's Poison Arts and Gu Arts to seize the toxic creatures and venomous insects that the Five Immortals Sect cultivates. The Five Immortals Sect certainly possesses many other treasures related to Poison Arts and Gu Arts. If I can seize them, it would greatly benefit my power," Huang Shang explained.
"I still need to hurry back. The forces of the twenty-eight battalions of the Light Faction are gathered together, but there are traitors among them, putting twenty of the battalions in danger," Ye Yunfei thought for a moment and then replied.
Previously, if not for rescuing Su Qingluo, Ye Yunfei would have rushed back long ago.
"How strong can the Five Immortals Sect be? We could wipe them out in moments. If you're in a hurry to return, then Elder Huang and I can go there by ourselves," the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm said.
"The Five Immortals Sect truly isn't that strong anymore. Fine, we'll head there immediately and eliminate the Five Immortals Sect. We'll use it as an example to intimidate the other major forces of the Main World. However, I will have a Doppelganger Statue take the Blood Clan Clone back to where the twenty-eight battalions of the Light Faction are stationed to protect them," Ye Yunfei thought it over, then declared.
Ye Yunfei believed that given his current strength, destroying the Five Immortals Sect should not be difficult.
And so, Ye Yunfei immediately summoned a Doppelganger Statue, infused it with a large batch of various energy crystals, and ordered this statue, accompanied by the Blood Clan Clone, to return.
This Doppelganger Statue possessed at least eighty to ninety percent of Ye Yunfei's true self's power, and could execute all the techniques and secret arts Ye Yunfei had cultivated. Its combat prowess was formidable. Ye Yunfei still had several more Doppelganger Statues on him. These were hidden aces of his, not to be used lightly.
"Su Qingluo, give me the space-time coordinates of the Five Immortals Sect's headquarters," Ye Yunfei said to Su Qingluo.
"Alright," Su Qingluo nodded obediently and immediately conveyed the space-time coordinates of the Five Immortals Sect's headquarters to Ye Yunfei.
Ye Yunfei entered these coordinates into his spatial transmission token, activated it directly, and teleported.
"Sister Qing Luo, you're much easier to talk to now. This is more like the Sister Qing Luo I know. Did you know you were far too cold and aloof before, acting all high and mighty? I didn't even dare speak to you. Thankfully, you've changed back now. I think Sister Qing Luo is much more lovable like this," Hu Miao said to Su Qingluo.
Upon hearing Hu Miao's words, Su Qingluo's face instantly flushed crimson, leaving her speechless.
"Hu Miao, don't speak nonsense," Ye Yunfei said.
"Master, I’m telling the truth! Don’t you always stick up for Sister Qing Luo in front of me—it’s not fair!" Hu Miao grumbled indignantly.
"Hu Miao, I was in the wrong before…" Su Qingluo whispered.
"Ahead is the Five Immortals Sect's headquarters."
Right at that moment, the spatial transmission token suddenly halted its teleportation. Ye Yunfei spoke.
"Haha… Time for some real action!"
Huang Shang and the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm simultaneously emerged from the Phantom Tower. The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm shouted loudly.
"No problem with wiping out this sect, right?" the Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm asked Ye Yunfei.
"Of course not. The Five Immortals Sect colluded with the Dark Faction. They deserve this," Ye Yunfei nodded.
"In that case, I won’t hold back! Elder Huang, let's move! All of you, charge in for me!"
The Golden-Horned Dragon Silkworm immediately released all his venomous insects. With a wave of his hand, he bellowed the command, looking exceptionally awe-inspiring.
