The Ancient Realm Goddess
Plan

"And this hairpin .. I don't really understand. According to the old ancestors, this silver hairpin came out from the mysterious vortex by itself. From their conclusion, this was the key to opening that vortex. This was why this silver hairpin was hidden within the Ancestral Protective Statue."

Qing Yue'er looked at the Yin Ancestor who was gazing into the distance. His expression looked complicated without being decipherable. Then he asked, "Why did the Ancestor choose to place those hairpins on these statues? Why isn't it somewhere safer?"

The other elder who heard his question immediately pouted. They can certainly guess the reason.

"You want to know why? It's because only a morally impolite disciple like you would hold the face of a protector!"

Elder Chen shouted with scorn at him. The other elder nodded in agreement to his shout.

"Ohuk!" Qing Yue'er almost choked on her own saliva. Why is this error still being discussed?

"Forget it. But there are things that I have thought about for a long time" said ancestor Yin who made the elder distract him.

"What's that?"

"Reopening the mysterious vortex."

Everyone couldn't believe what they had just heard. Open the vortex back? Isn't that more like seeking death?

Even the Azure Dragon Alliance couldn't handle such a thing, how would it be if they didn't even have such a great alliance?

"This ...."

The elders did not know what to say. They naturally did not want to do such a ridiculous thing as opening a vortex. They still want to enjoy old age peacefully.

Although they had only heard of the mysterious vortex, they believed what ancestor Yin had said. They can even imagine how frightening it is.

"Yin Hu, this doesn't seem like a good idea." Zu Tiankong raised his opinion.

"From what you're describing, it seems like the power of the vortex is terrifying. With our current strength it doesn't seem like it will be enough to conquer it. Of course because we don't know what's behind the mysterious vortex" he said.

Qing Yue'er agreed with her teacher's opinion. The vortex was too mysterious, to be able to conquer it then they had to have even more power than the Azure Dragon Alliance.

After all, no one knew if the vortex would still take its toll or not. More importantly as Zu Tiankong said, they did not know the things that were behind the vortex. What if there were immortal beings controlling it? Or maybe even the natural order that was destined to be there?

"There's nothing else I'm thinking about. I just want to look for the remains of those who were swallowed by the vortex," ancestor Yin said with a sigh. Then he looked at Qing Yue'er with a faint smile.

"Therefore, I need your help, Qing Yu." The highlight of his eyes became hopeful when he saw Qing Yue'er.

Qing Yue'er looked at him in confusion. What can he help? He was just a weak little disciple. "Me?"

"Everybody go first. I have something important to discuss with Qing Yu," said ancestor Yin.

The elders wanted to say something but they undo their intentions. With doubtful steps, they moved out of the Weaponry Hall.

"Our ancestor, what important thing are we going to talk about?" qing Yue'er asked.

Ancestor Yin pulled Qing Yue'er up abruptly. In a blink of an eye they disappeared from that place.

Qing Yue'er had no idea what was happening. He felt his eyes blur. But considering the kindness of the woman, he was not worried that ancestor Yin would harm him.

After a while had passed, Qing Yue'er felt a footing of the ground at her feet. As his views became clear, they had reached the bridge between the main peak and the second peak.

"Let me ask for your help, Qing Yu."

Qing Yue'er became increasingly curious about what she wanted to help. He simply smiled waiting for the next ancestor's speech.

"Can you ask for help from a mummified human in a bamboo forest?"

Upon hearing this request, Qing Yue'er immediately frowned. Why didn't the Yin Ancestor ask the mummified humans directly? Don't they know each other?

"Our ancestor, don't you know each other? Why should I ask for my help?" qing Yue'er asked.

Ancestor Yin chuckled. "You're wrong, Qing Yu. I don't know him at all."

"Then why did you send me there? Could be your goal then ...." The words stopped in the middle of the road. He hesitated when he wanted to say that.

"Did you think my goal back then was to kill you?" The woman laughed loudly. His elegance that he displayed was completely gone.

"I wouldn't dare to do it. He had long come to this place. At first I didn't know who he was, but his strength really couldn't be underestimated."

"He asked me to send you down there. I don't even know what relationship you have with her. But he really does appreciate you."

Qing Yue'er was surprised to hear the explanation of ancestor Yin. It turned out that he had been thinking wrong all along. Looks like a mummified human did come here to wait for his arrival. It must have been related to her mother's identity.

After thinking for a while, Qing Yue'er agreed to the request of ancestor Yin. Then about whether or not the mummy man agrees, that's another business. At least he tried.

"I'll try it, but I don't know if he'll agree or not" Qing Yue'er said.

"No problem. I'll keep you company."

After that Qing Yue'er's gaze faded again as her body felt like it was plunging from a height. A few seconds later he had arrived at the familiar bamboo forest.

The atmosphere was still the same as when he first came. The green bamboo still covered part of the place. It was just that the bamboo forest felt even more dense at this time. And the wooden hut that used to still look neat now feels very cold and dilapidated.

Qing Yue'er's heart became tense. That guy couldn't have gotten out of this place, right?

"Wait a minute, I'll have to find her."

The ancestor said as he walked closer to the wooden hut. His face looked even darker, perhaps he was thinking the same thing as Qing Yue'er.

Yin Hu walked closer to the already dilapidated wooden hut. From his aura, it seemed like the mummified human was not here. But he still couldn't believe it before he proved it himself.

With a quick step, he entered the wooden hut. He started looking for her in various corners of the room, but everything was completely empty. There's nothing left.

With disappointment lingering in his heart, he stepped his foot out. As he looked at Qing Yue'er, he could feel that the child had already guessed what had happened.

Just like what Yin Hu thought. Qing Yue'er had already guessed what happened. From a single glance he could feel the air that felt extremely cold. It was like no one was inhabiting this bamboo forest.

"It seems we should postpone this plan. That person is gone," said ancestor Yin with a complicated look in his eyes.

"Our ancestor, what level of strength is required?"

If not in the heavenly realm, Qing Yue'er had Ying Jun in mind. That kid must be helping him. After all, the current cultivation of Ying Jun must have advanced even higher.

"At least have to step on the earthly realm. But looking for people with such a level of strength was extremely difficult to find in a remote place like this."

Ancestor Yin sighed heavily. It seemed like his desire to search for the remains of his comrade within the vortex could not be realized. Maybe for others this only brings problems, but different from his mind.

His comrades died without a corpse. Even at the tipping point, they still had time to get him out of the dead. Didn't he owe them a favor?

Qing Yue'er felt sadness for her ancestors. He immediately contacted Ying Jun in his mind.

"Ying Jun, can you help?"

Ying Jun who had since observed what had happened, sighed. "Sir, what if they find out where I am?"

"No problem. To be honest, I was very curious about the things behind the vortex. Wouldn't it be amazing if there were precious treasures we could take?"

Qing Yue'er's speech almost made Ying Jun vomit blood. That kind of terrifying thing was still even thinking about precious treasures? Oh, that girl really has a lot of appetite.

"Hmm, okay. I'll try it. But as much as possible you have to minimize the people who know. I don't guarantee they'll all appreciate you. There is nothing impossible such a thing that the Blood Rain Sect is doing will happen back in this academy," Ying Jun replied.

Qing Yue'er understood what Ying Jun was afraid of. It was uncertain that the people in this academy would not be tempted upon seeing a divine beast like Blue Phoenix.

"Em, I get it."

Qing Yue'er looked at ancestor Yin seriously. "If I help the ancestors, is there any reward for me?"

Ancestor Yin was slightly surprised by Qing Yue'er's question. No one would be so bold as to openly ask him for a reward. But given his abnormal behavior, he understood a little. Qing Yue'er was indeed a different child from the others.

"of course. I can give you anything you want."

After getting this answer, Qing Yue'er's eyes became sparkling. This is the path to wealth! Without thinking anymore, Qing Yue'er had made up her mind.

"I have someone who can help. But I have special conditions to fulfill."

The eyebrows of the Yin ancestor were knitted together. He was not too sure of Qing Yue'er's words. How could that child have such a strong person to help him?

"Hehe's not much I want. I'll do it tonight. But no one is allowed to watch over me, including you."

Qing Yue'er said as she stroked her chin. He looked more like Zu Tiankong when he was like that. Teachers and students have similar traits.

"Are you serious? This is not something that can be played with," said ancestor Yin.

"Do I look like I'm joking? And I can make sure you guys that everything's gonna be okay."

Qing Yue'er replied with complete confidence. With Ying Jun helping him, he had no doubts at all about his victory.
