The Ruler
317. Still With Yin Bei.
" Swhus. swhus.." thousands of elite troops from the top of Zhu Yin who had previously kept on arriving above the sky of Nan Yin's peak, moved away, making the atmosphere in that place calm.
" Prince, do they seem to be retreating? What do we do?" ask a high-level elder.
" Old Xiaolong, continue to activate this shield seal and place all the troops in a strategic place," Yin Gang replied calmly.
" Good prince..."
After giving a briefing to Nan Yin's top troops, Yin Gang then left the place.
" Swhus.." his figure moved out from the peak of Xi Yin.
****
Somewhere else.
Courtyard Hall of martial pinnacle Zhu Yin.
The thousands of elite troops of Peak Zhu Yin who returned from the peak of Nan Yin, immediately got an examination from the clan's protective elders, even Yin Baohu also ordered the elders to also participate in the examination.

Inside the palace of the martial hall.
" This intruder is really troublesome. I believe the chaos at the border of Nan Yin's previous peak was a deliberate act" Yin Zhanshi Zhe said.
" Do you mean Brother?" ask Yin Baohu.
" I'm sure the intruder wants to pit us against Nan Yin's peak" replied
Yin Baohu shook his head.
" I think the thief was indeed from Nan Yin's side. The reason for that, was because the thief was indeed a formation spell expert," he said seriously.
" But brother, we are always fooled. If it is indeed the thief from the top of Nan Yin, I don't think he will want to harm his own territory" Yin Zhanshi Zhe responded.
" Brother Zhanshi Zhe, for what they are afraid of, whereas they themselves have the strong support of Yin Bei," Yin Gu Jian said.
Yin Zhanshi Zhe shook her head.
" Brother, if the war really happens, the one who benefits in this matter is the eastern peak" he said slowly, making the place quiet.
" Hey, this matter is getting more complicated. Brother Gu Jian, what about the small demon chain seal that brother put down earlier?" ask Yin Baohu.
Yin Gu Jian nodded his head.
" The seal is still active" he said slowly.
" May the patriarch rise in rank soon. Our main focus right now is to search for the Trident of darkness" Yin Zhanshi Zhe said.
" Right," said Yin Baohu, while continuing their conversation.

Somewhere else. At the bottom of the black ice lake.
.
Two hours later, Yin Bei and Qing Ruo finally finished recuperating.
" Young master Qing Ruo, thank you. Without master, perhaps I would be an immortal without a soul" he humbled gratefully.
" The prince was too praising, I just happened to get a little. Being able to help the Prince had already made me happy," Qing Ruo said humbly.
" Mister Qing Ruo, I Yin Bei will remember this favor," he said solemnly, cupping his hands respectfully.
" Prince, I Qing Ruo will also remember the favor of the prince," Qing Ruo said as she cupped her hands respectfully.
" What does mister Qing Ruo mean?" yin Bei asked in surprise.
" Prince, if I meet the other members of the Yin clan, is it possible that until now I can still speak," Qing Ruo said kindly.
Yin Bei nodded her head.
" If I didn't understand the power of light back then, maybe I would act like them, too" he said with a friendly smile.
" Prince, regarding the light technique, how could the prince understand that?" qing Ruo asked curiously.
Yin Bei was silent for a moment, then looked at Qing Ruo seriously.
" Does master Qing Ruo know the sacred mountain of Ping Xie?"
Qing Ruo lowered her head slowly.
" Mister, a formation spell expert needs to understand the holy marks, and I accidentally gained enlightenment regarding the power of light upon coming at that place," he replied honestly.
" Enlightenment regarding the power of light? Did the prince learn from the ancient rhyme that was under the golden ladder?" qing Ruo asked in surprise.
" Right, but how did master Qing Ruo know that?" looking at Qing Ruo seriously.
Qing Ruo smiled casually, then showed the plain green jade badge she had.
" A-pa.." said Yin Bei surprised.
" Tu-tuan, who are you really?" looking at Qing Ruo seriously.
" What does the prince know about this badge?" qing Ruo asked.
" Mister, this is the badge of the Shen Guoshi Shenghuo clan. What is the lord's relationship with that ancient clan?" yin Bei asked seriously.
" I am a disciple and member of the Shenghuo clan," Qing Ruo replied calmly, leaving Yin Bei agape.
" Tu-tuan wasn't kidding, was he?" Staring at Qing Ruo seriously.
" According to the prince?" qing Ruo asked calmly as he sipped his drink casually.
Yin Bei was silent for quite a while.
" Nothing is impossible, because after all, the Shen Guoshi Shenghuo clan is an extremely powerful ancient clan," he said softly.
Qing Ruo nodded her head.
" Right, the Shenghuo clan has long since disappeared, but that doesn't mean they have disappeared" Qing Ruo said.
Suddenly Yin Bei stood up from her chair.
" Mister Qing Ruo, although I am not a direct disciple of Shen Guoshi Shenghuo clan, but I have considered myself to be a part of them. Respectful to senior Qinq Ruo," he said as he cupped his hands respectfully.
Qing Ruo shook her head.
" I should have called the prince a senior. Although the prince was not a direct disciple, but the prince first studied at the Ping Xie Holy Mountain" Qing Ruo said.
" That's not true, because I'm just an outsider, while seniors are insiders who have more rights to get that status" he said.
" Prince, since we are both part of the Sacred Ping Xie mountain, doesn't that mean we are brothers, I guess it's more appropriate," said Qing Ruo who immediately received an incredible welcome from Yin Bei.
" Brother Qing Ruo," he said as he cupped his hands respectfully, which Qing Ruo replied in the same manner.
" Brother Yin Bei, if I meet with the teacher, I will inform you of this," Qing Ruo said in a serious manner.
" Thank you, brother. Being a part of the Ping Xie Sacred Mountain is my honor. Brother Ruo, I am so curious how can brother become a disciple of the Shenghuo clan?" yin Bei asked seriously.
" Brother Bei, I am also a formation spell coach. Earlier I didn't even know at all the sacred mountain of Ping Xie, until Xiong master grandfather Mao Tian asked me to study the holy marks, so, and I was lucky to be able to learn directly from Shenghuo Zhuanjia's teacher and Shenghuo Congming," Qing Ruo replied truthfully, making Yin Bei who was sitting before him, quietly ring out.
" Brother Yin Bei," Qing Ruo said disperse her reverie.
" Sister Ruo, who are you really?" yin Bei asked with a serious face.
" What do you mean Brother Bei?" qing Ruo asked in surprise.
" Sister Ruo, what does brother have to do with that immortal Xiong Mao Tian? The air background was so complicated that it almost made me barely able to think," he said in seriousness, leaving Qing Ruo chuckling.
" Hais is Bei's brother, there's nothing" he said as he poured a drink and gave it to Yin Bei. " Drink first" he said warmly.
" Thank you brother," as he grabbed the drink and sipped slowly. " Brother Ruo, the explanation," he said in seriousness.
Qing Ruo nodded her head.
" Grandfather Master Xiong Mao Tian. I should have called him with my great-grandfather, since he is the teacher and adoptive father of Ling Zhong's grandfather," Qing Ruo replied as she pointed at the Purple Sky Jade's badge, making Yin Bei now almost spouted a drink from her mouth.
" Sister Ruo, this badge...?"
" Right, I am the young master of the dark forest," Qing Ruo replied casually.
" Then Ling Zhong's grandfather you mentioned earlier, was Shen Guoshi Ling Zhong the son of patriarch Shen Guoshi Ling Tian?" Staring at Qing Ruo seriously.
" Right, currently Ling Zhong's grandfather is the patriarch of the Shen Guoshi Ling clan, and my mother is his only daughter," Qing Ruo replied casually, making Yin Bei now completely glare at his eyes.
" What about the name Qing?"
" Shen Guoshi Qing Kongque, from his first son, Shen Guoshi Qing Fengbao," Qing Ruo replied as she circulated her strength, along with the appearance of an intangible voice of Lightning, make Yin Bei's knees shake.
" A lightning without color. Brother Ruo's background turned out to be extremely terrifying," his inner gaze looked at Qing Ruo respectfully.
