Double Cultivation
the middle holy continent
While Wu Jinjing and Zhu Mengyi were busy with each other, the Golden Lion Academy had just begun to rebuild their place after Xiao Rong had nearly destroyed their thousand-year history.
However, the damage done to their Sect turned out to be far more devastating than the golden Patriarch had expected, because the treasury of the Sect was burned to the ground along with most of the Sect resources that were within the building.
And without the majority of their resources, the Golden Lion Academy was unable to recuperate on its own, pushing the golden patriarch into a corner.
"Suckers! Goddamn bum! Goddamn bum!"
Inside his own room, the golden Patriarch released his anger on the surrounding furniture, throwing it around the room.
"This is all the fault of the silver-haired girl! If he had not peeked suspiciously at my Sect, none of this would have happened!" The golden patriarch placed all the blame on Xiao Rong, ignoring his own actions.
After smashing some more furniture, the golden Patriarch finally stopped his rampage and turned to look at the hooded figure who was quietly standing in the corner of the room.
The hooded figure, upon seeing the golden Patriarch finally paying attention to him, spoke in a muffled voice, "If Senior gold needs resources, we, Moonlight Blades, can help you in your matters."
Hearing the words of the hooded figure, the Golden Patriarch coldly snorted, "How many more times do I have to kill you before finally understanding my answer? I refuse anything you offer!"
However, the hooded figure remained in the room and continued to speak, "If you help us in destroying the Xie Family, then, we will leave for you all their wealth which is guaranteed to be enough to restore this Sect and more. What's more, you can even take their positions and rule over the entire Eastern Continent" said the hooded figure
Patriarch Gold did not immediately respond and held a brooding expression on his face.
These people who called themselves Moonlight Blades/moonlight knives appeared suddenly one day before him two months ago and had asked for his help to destroy this Xie Family ever since.
At first, the golden Patriarch would ignore them and even kill every envoy sent by them, but as time went on, his interest in their cause grew stronger. And now that his Sect was on the verge of collapse, their offer suddenly became very pleasing to his eyes.
However, he did not directly agree to help them, as he did not want them to see it as an encouragement.
After a moment of silence, the hooded figure continued to speak, "Our Moonlight Blade only wants the daughter of the Xie Family. As for the others, Senior can decide what to do with them."
"What is it about this princess that is so important to you? My answer will depend on your response," said the golden Patriarch a moment later.
"The leader wants to obtain the Heavenly Constitution, the body of the Hundred Poisons." the figure said.
The hooded figure did not try to hide that fact from him because the Leader himself ordered him to do so, as the Moonlight Blades desperately needed his help to achieve their goals.
"Heavenly Constitution, huh?" The Gold Patriarch's mutter licked his lips.
Heavenly Constitutions were extremely rare even within the Sacred Continent, such that even powerful individuals like the Golden Patriarch wanted one very badly.
"If I recall correctly, you guys can completely pass through the Jade Sea and come to the Sacred Middle Continent because of some Spiritual Treasures, but it only works one way. Is that true?"
"That's right." The hooded figure confirms.
"But in order for us to cross the Jade Sea and get there, it will take at least half a year."
The Golden Patriarch fell silent again.
After thinking for a few more minutes, the Golden Patriarch smirked and said, "Tell your leader that I will see him as soon as possible."
The veiled figure nodded and quickly disappeared into the shadows, leaving the golden Patriarch alone.
"Hahaha .. you are a fool ..." The golden patriarch laughed inwardly. "Are you even thinking about all this? Why should I listen to some people from a lower place like the Eastern Continent, let alone share my resources?"
He was secretly hoping to obtain the body of a hundred poisons for himself, feeling so confident in his own abilities that he could only imagine a smooth sailing happening when he arrived.

Somewhere above the Jade Sea, Qiuyue looked at the Central Sacred Continent behind him with a relieved smile.
"I managed to keep my secret from him!" he cheered in his heart.
Now she no longer had to worry about her knowing her identity as the elf Su Yue and possibly dying of embarrassment.
"You look elated today," Su Yang suddenly said to him with a mysterious smile on his face. "Has anything positive happened recently?"
"Maybe. Maybe not. Who knows." Qiuyue responded with a mischievous tone.
"You know, I learned a few things during my short stay at the place, and it made this whole trip more than worth it." Su Yang continued to smile mysteriously.
"Huh? Did you actually learn anything from that place? What did you learn?" Qiuyue noticed that he was acting a bit strange, but he was in a too good mood to care about something so insignificant and cleared it off his shoulders.
"That's not important, because it's just a few stories that are a little interesting."
"really? Why don't you share it with me?" Qiuyue spoke without thinking.
"Are you sure? You may not find solace in these stories." Su Yang casually warned her.
"It's just a few stories, right? What's to be sure?"
At this point, the mischievous expression on Qiuyue's face turned into an expression filled with doubt, as he began to feel uneasy in his heart from the mysterious aura surrounding Su Yang.
As for Su Yang, the mysterious smile on his face only grew bigger and bigger. He was really impatient to see the expression that Qiuyue would make once he started talking about a girl named Su Yue.
