The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

“Miss Feng, all the directions we explored seemed to have been deliberately wiped out of all traces.”

Grandma Yinhua said with a sincere and apologetic expression, her face filled with regret. “I may have broken my promise on this matter, but please don’t worry, Spirit Sound Valley will not give up on the investigation!”

In a temporary attic prepared by Spirit Sound Valley for Feng Qingya and Mu Lao, Grandma Yinhua spoke with a genuine and remorseful tone.

Last night, she had confidently promised to find Su Jingzhen and Xuening before dawn. However, after a night of searching, the information they had gathered seemed to have vanished into thin air, as if an invisible hand had wiped it clean.

Spirit Sound Valley was also at a loss about the situation.

Before Feng Qingya could respond, Grandma Yinhua continued, “The Feng family’s alchemy conference is still being held on Wind Bell Island. Perhaps your two companions have gone there voluntarily. You might want to take a look, since Spirit Sound Inn has been completely destroyed, and your friends might not dare to come back after last night’s crisis.”

Upon hearing this, Feng Qingya didn’t want to argue with Grandma Yinhua anymore. If Su Jingzhen and Xuening had indeed fallen, her own life would also be shrouded in darkness. No matter how much she argued, she couldn’t change the fact.

“Let’s go, Mu Lao. Regardless of the outcome, I must face it myself.”

From start to finish, Feng Qingya didn’t respond to Grandma Yinhua’s words. She simply turned to Mu Lao and said this.

“Sigh…”

Watching Feng Qingya and Mu Lao’s departing figures, Grandma Yinhua in the attic couldn’t help but let out a sigh.

Although she knew that Spirit Sound Inn’s misfortune was brought upon by Feng Qingya, Grandma Yinhua’s gaze towards Feng Qingya was filled with pity, without any hatred.

“Even if Feng Qingya doesn’t need to take responsibility, the other families have indeed suffered losses, and it’s truly a headache. The Feng family, after Spirit Sound Valley deals with this mess, we will not let you off easily.”

Grandma Yinhua’s tone was filled with intense killing intent towards the end.

They knew that the Feng family was behind last night’s incident, but they lacked evidence.

…

Wind Bell Island was one of the dozens of islands suspended in the sky above Yunmeng City, and it was the lowest and largest in terms of area. Some smaller islands with higher elevations had been divided among the major powers, but Wind Bell Island remained under the joint control of several major forces.

There weren’t many requirements for those who came and went. As long as they could find a way up, they could come and go as they pleased.

On Wind Bell Island, there was the largest square in all of Yunmeng City, known as Wind Bell Square.

At the edge of Wind Bell Square, there were twelve nine-zhang-tall white jade pillars standing upright.

Each pillar was carved with an auspicious beast totem.

The white crane, qilin, phoenix, giant dragon, and others seemed to come alive, and those who saw them for the first time would be captivated by the auspicious aura surrounding them.

In the north of Wind Bell Square, where the twelve white jade pillars stood guard, there was a ten-zhang-tall statue of a goddess.

The goddess was carved as a woman with wings on her back, a flower crown on her head, and an ethereal and sacred aura about her, unlike any mortal.

Her gaze seemed to hold a hint of sorrow, as if she was gazing at the Yunmeng City below.

This goddess statue was known as the Yunmeng Goddess!

Legend had it that she had created the layout of the upper and lower cities, and even the floating islands were said to be her handiwork.

However, this was just a legend, and aside from this statue, there was no other trace of the Yunmeng Goddess in Yunmeng City.

So, for most cultivators, the truth behind this legend was unknown. Many people even thought that this was just a publicity stunt to promote Yunmeng City.

However, regardless of whether it was true or not, many cultivators would come to Wind Bell Island to visit the twelve white jade pillars and the Yunmeng Goddess statue. Even those with good luck could discover some unique insights from the totems and the goddess’s aura.

This place was like a sacred site in Yunmeng City, and with the Alchemy Conference being held today, it was even more crowded than usual.

In fact, many people had already arrived last night to occupy good spots to watch the Alchemy Conference.

In the cultivation world, alchemists were scarce, but there were always many people who liked to join in on the excitement.

However, the positions of the various major powers and family clans in Yunmeng City were not to be occupied by anyone.

“It’s said that last night’s big explosion at Spirit Sound Inn was aimed at Feng Qingya. And it’s said that the two alchemists she brought with her had already fallen on the spot.”

“Did they fall? I heard that the alchemists who fell were from the Alchemist Association, and the two that Feng Qingya brought with her have disappeared. It’s likely that they were controlled by someone. The two alchemists Feng Qingya brought seem to be quite skilled.”

“Speaking of which, Feng Qingya is indeed quite pitiful. She was once a shining star in Yunmeng City.”

“Heh heh, that’s what happens when you’re from a big family. Who let her lose her backing in the Feng family?”

“…”

Today, wherever people gathered, they couldn’t help but talk about the Spirit Sound Inn explosion and Feng Qingya.

“I wonder how many alchemists will participate in this Alchemy Conference. Look at the central stage, it’s already set up. If those newly risen alchemists can come and participate, it’ll be quite interesting.”

“Heh heh, you’re talking about those new alchemists who rose to fame, but they’re all from the Alchemist Association. This time, it’s just the Feng family’s own doing, and they can’t even represent the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.”

“That’s not right! The Alchemist Association and Treasure Gathering Pavilion are currently at odds. From the Alchemist Association’s perspective, they won’t let any opportunity to strike at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion slip by.”

“And as for the Qingzhou region, the Feng family is one of the major families within the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.”

“If the Feng family is oppressed, the Treasure Gathering Pavilion’s reputation will also be affected.”

“Moreover, the Feng family’s actions this time have harmed some people from the Alchemist Association. Although there’s no evidence, the Alchemist Association must be furious.”

“Let’s see, this Alchemy Conference is going to be more exciting than we imagined.”

“…”

The crowd of onlookers at the edge of Wind Bell Square was getting more and more excited.

While the crowd was excitedly discussing, a group of people suddenly appeared in the distance, heading towards the center of Wind Bell Square.

“They’re here! The Feng family has finally arrived!”

“The host has arrived, and the alchemists should also be arriving soon…”

“…”
