Chapter 3598 Masters Gather

"Those two girls appearing near the Zhongling Mountain Range — that can't be a coincidence, can it?" the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master asked the Wu Ma Heavenly Clan's Supreme Elder.

"I've been thinking the same thing. I don't believe it's a coincidence," the Wu Ma Heavenly Clan's Supreme Elder replied.

"It seems word has leaked. Could those two girls be planning to seize the treasures of the Zhongling Mountain Range?" the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master said.

"If that's the case, then nothing could be better." A mocking smile curled at the corner of the Wu Ma Heavenly Clan's Supreme Elder's mouth, and then he spoke with great confidence: "If they dare go there, they'll be walking straight into a trap. There will be absolutely no escape — not even with wings."

"So Liangqiu Chengfeng is already at the Zhongling Mountain Range?" the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master asked.

"Not just Liangqiu Chengfeng. I might as well be straightforward with you, Brother Chu. To open the treasures of the Zhongling Mountain Range this time, our clan has actually invited quite a few experts."

"Right now, inside the Zhongling Mountain Range, it's not only Liangqiu Chengfeng and our Clan Master present."

"Li Shi Heavenly Clan's Li Ruochu is there as well, along with the Li Shi Heavenly Clan's Supreme Elder, Li Taiyi," the Wu Ma Heavenly Clan's Supreme Elder said.

"Li Taiyi?" Upon hearing this name, the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master's gaze shifted.

Right now, the Chu Heavenly Clan and the Li Shi Heavenly Clan were practically at each other's throats, and Li Taiyi was one of the Li Shi Heavenly Clan's most notorious war hawks. The term "war hawk" meant that at the slightest friction, one would never back down and would push for all-out war instead.

Put simply, he was the type who favored a heavy-handed approach.

A man like him would undoubtedly throw his full support behind the Li Shi Heavenly Clan's efforts to attack the Chu Heavenly Clan and seize the Great Thousand Upper Realm.

Although war had not truly broken out yet, and no official declaration of war had ever been made, the truth was that the Chu Heavenly Clan and the Li Shi Heavenly Clan were already genuine enemies. And this Li Taiyi was one of the Li Shi Heavenly Clan's most formidable hardliners.

But soon, the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master's expression shifted slightly again. He seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly asked: "Li Ruochu — could that be the genius young woman?"

"Yes, that's her. The very same Li Ruochu who swept through every younger generation in the Ancestral Martial Starfield back in the day. Though she's no longer considered part of the younger generation now, she's only grown even more beautiful." The Wu Ma Heavenly Clan's Supreme Elder spoke with a radiant smile, clearly quite admiring of Li Ruochu.

At this moment, the Chu Heavenly Clan's Clan Master couldn't help but glance over at Chu Feng.

Chu Feng smiled and nodded, indicating he had heard everything.

That name — Li Ruochu — he remembered.

The Clan Master had told him about it before.

Li Yue'er's parents had passed away not long after she was born. But Li Yue'er also had an older sister and an older brother. The brother's name was Li Ming, and the sister was Li Ruochu.

Li Yue'er and Li Ming had been raised single-handedly by Li Ruochu. However, when Li Yue'er was five years old, Li Ruochu had gone to cultivate in some upper realm, and since then, no news of her had ever been heard.
