Mortal To Immortal (Book 1)
MTI 179 - Three Guards Plan

Yun Mohei was suddenly struck by a severe headache when he realized the Yun Lian he was guarding along with the other two elders had disappeared. Besides panicking, he was also annoyed with the two escort elders with him for not being able to properly watch over Yun Lian.

Yun Mohei felt himself to be useless. An old cultivator who possessed strength in the Great Soul Realm like himself was not as good at guarding a Basic Realm cultivator.

Slightly regretful that he had given up his full supervision to Xie Hong and Mo Zha, it should not be him who was walking in the front position.

"Aish." Yun Mohei rubbed his face in frustration.

Shown in his mind was Yun Ming's great anger towards him, moreover he was the confidant of the Moon Cloud Sect's Patriarch who nicknamed the Death Gate. Xie Hong and Mo Zha felt guilty as well, both of them glanced at each other and scratched their heads which were not actually itchy.

The three of them finally agreed to split up looking for the existence of Yun Lian who could somehow escape the supervision of the three. After some time, they regroup with a more tangled look of face mixed with seriousness.

"Although it hasn't found any trace of Miss Yun, I guess we found one thing more or less the same." Yun Mohei broke the silence for a moment after glancing at Xie Hong and Mo Zha alternately.

Xie Hong and Mo Zha glanced at each other before sighing deeply then nodding softly. These three elders of the Moon Cloud Sect had just gotten information that there were a number of small entourage of ten-star white flow sects entering the Jade Treasure City.

"I saw directly from a distance the small entourage of the White Lotus Sect." Xie Hong informed of his findings.

"There's something even stranger. I heard from the surrounding people that there was also a small entourage of ten-star neutral flow sects." Yun Mohei let out a long breath.

"What?" Mo Zha was slightly surprised, his forehead shrinking deeply. "What are they all doing in this town? Why did they suddenly happen to gather in this city?"

Yun Mohei felt that the arrival of the small entourage of the white and neutral ten-star sect had something to do with the auction that might be held in the Jade Treasure City, but on the other hand he also hesitated, because their own small entourage had not heard any news about the auction during the journey here.

"If it's just the entourage from the white-flow sect coming together, it looks like we can guess it." Xie Hong muttered softly.

"What do you mean, Elder Xie?" ask Mo Zha. He still had no idea of the situation.

Yun Mohei helped answer. "Especially if not the tradition of the ten-star white flow sect, the Young Cultivator Meeting. It's not a coincidence."

Mo Zha was silent for a moment thinking about those three words before exclaiming softly. "Ah, yes. I recall. Then what about the entourage from the neutral sect?"

"Hm, as I know, the Jade Treasure Tower has been the organizer of this meeting for several times in the past few decades, so their participation is not surprising. But the other three sects..." Xie Hong could not finish his sentence. He thought hard together with the other two elders.

"Is it possible that they suddenly made an alliance? White and neutral alliance. So there's likely not just the Young Cultivator Meeting as usual." Yun Mohei voiced his thoughts then clucked softly.

Yun Mohei now knew the reason behind the onset of the bad premonition he felt earlier not long after entering the Jade Treasure City.

As one of the cultivators who had already reached the level of the Great Soul realm as well as being the right hand of the Death Gate of one of the strongest black flow sects at the moment, it was the most powerful one, Yun Mohei was never afraid or daunted if he fought or faced any situation that came from a white or neutral sect.

"Aish, whatever is clear we must quickly find Miss Yun and leave this city. I'm afraid Miss Yun accidentally met with one of their entourage and got involved in a matter we don't want."

Xie Hong and Mo Zha agreed with Yun Mohei. Now the only thing in their minds was to immediately find Yun Lian and leave from the Jade Treasure City.

They agreed in their minds that there was no need to worry about Yun Lian who might meet the Northern Ice Fortress or the Jade Treasure Tower, the party of the Northern Ice Citadel, because these two sects would not care about anything if there was nothing to do with them.

Mo Zha proposed a crazy plan to make their search more effective, something Yun Mohei had opposed.

"Have you lost your sanity, Little Mo? The risk is too great."

"There's no other way, Elder Mohei. If my plan goes smoothly, we can find Miss Yun faster. Miss Yun can go to where we are or at least find out that we're looking for her because of a precarious situation."

"I agree with him, Elder Mohei. I think this plan will work. The risk is hard, but all for Miss Yun. I don't find any other way either." In this kind of situation, Xie Hong was one voice with Mo Zha.

Yun Mohei let out a long breath. "All right, let's run the plan."

Elsewhere, inside a building that had been arranged in such a way for a meeting, there were two young men a dozen years out of a room. These two young men had just received a long piece of advice from one of the Elders of the Jade Treasure Tower.

The first was Bao Wei, the only son of Bao Fan, the current Patriarch of the Jade Treasure Tower and who was dubbed as the Treasure King. While the other youth who looked younger was Fang Jun, the son of one of the quite important elders of the Jade Treasure Tower.

The ages of the two were only at odds of three years and were two of the three most talented youngsters of the current generation that the Jade Treasure Tower possessed. One other youngster was Qian Yue.

"You know, Wei-gege, my ears are hot. The elder just now seemed as if he would not stop talking. I doubt he was speaking earlier." Fang Jun complained as he rubbed his ears.

Bao Wei chuckled softly, she felt the same but did not complain. He also tried to calm down this junior of his.

"Jun'er, that's natural. This was a meeting after a long time of not being held and for the first time all the largest white and neutral stream representatives had gathered. We've been prepared as best we can because it will all affect the reputation of the Jade Treasure Tower."

Instead of improving, Fang Jun's countenance grew uglier.
