Fortunately, only she, who cultivated the Thousand Illusion Glazed Art, could detect this matter. Even the Sect Master would be unable to probe it unless he moved the entire Glazed Mountain. Moreover, she had previously shifted the blame to that drilling beast, so should not be suspected.

With this thought, felt somewhat relieved. She immediately decided to bury the matter deep in her heart and tell no one. She even went to great lengths to conceal any traces of the small underground passage beneath the room where Yang Kai had stayed.

Yang Kai never imagined that Dai Yuan had a way to see through everything. He thought he had gone completely undetected.

Before leaving, he had specifically instructed the Stone Puppet to repair that underground passage. But both he and had underestimated the profound mysteries of the Thousand Illusion Glazed Art and the Glazed Divine Light.

At this moment, Yang Kai and Yang Yan were already a hundred thousand miles away from the Taiqing Mountain Range, flying toward a certain destination.

Yet Yang Kai still felt a subtle sense of unease, his expression solemn as his Divine Sense constantly scanned the surroundings.

"Why do I feel like you're being overly cautious?" Yang Yan furrowed her brow and asked.

"Mhm. When the Stone Puppet came out, it encountered a very strange demon beast. Although it was only at the sixth rank and was slapped dead with one blow, the commotion at Glazed Mountain must be related to it. I don't know if that beast relayed any information. If it did, we need to move faster."

"Little Stone killed a demon beast?" Yang Yan exclaimed. She was only learning of this now.

"It must be a beast specially raised by the Glazed Sect. I don't know exactly what kind, only that it could bypass the various restrictions beneath Glazed Mountain. It was probably sent down by the Glazed Sect people to investigate. Fortunately, the Stone Puppet was quick-witted and dealt the fatal blow before the beast could react. Otherwise, we'd definitely be in trouble this time... Huh?" As he spoke, Yang Kai's figure suddenly halted. He looked up ahead, his expression shifting slightly, and he stopped in his tracks.

"What is it?"

"Someone is coming this way." Yang Kai narrowed his eyes, peering into the distance, a thoughtful look on his face.

Yang Yan also looked in the direction he was gazing but saw nothing. However, she knew Yang Kai was different from ordinary people, so she wasn't particularly surprised. She simply asked in a soft voice, "They're not coming for us, are they?"

If they were pursuing them, they should be coming from behind. Why would they be approaching from the front?

"It's Yin Sudie! They really are coming for us." Yang Kai gave a helpless smile.

Yang Yan pondered for a moment, then understood. "It seems the Glazed Sect has a spatial array connecting to a nearby city. Otherwise, this wouldn't happen. What do we do?"

"What can we do? If we avoid them now, it would look suspicious." Yang Kai shook his head. Instead, he pretended not to notice any traces of the approaching party and flew straight toward them.

He had discovered that while there was more than just Yin Sudie coming, there was no Void Return Realm powerhouse among them. Therefore, he felt no fear.

A hundred miles ahead, Yin Sudie was flying this way with two Martial King Third Stage warriors. A faint look of dissatisfaction flickered between her elegant brows. Earlier, when she heard the Sect Master had ordered a thorough investigation of all visitors, she had been quite pleased. After all, she had suffered a minor setback at Yang Kai's hands a few days ago when using her bewitching arts, and he had taken considerable advantage of her, which made Yin Sudie extremely angry.

Not to mention that, the mere fact that Yang Kai was Dai Yuan's guest was enough to pique Yin Sudie's interest. She had been searching for an opportunity to cause trouble for Yang Kai, and now the chance had landed right in front of her.

She was very curious about what exactly Dai Yuan and Yang Kai's relationship was, and what the purpose of bringing Yang Kai to Thousand Illusion Peak this time was.

To her surprise, the investigation of visitors turned out to be much ado about nothing. She had eagerly reported to the Elder in charge, but upon hearing that Yang Kai was merely a Martial King Second Stage warrior, the Elder immediately lost interest and had no intention of pursuing the matter. However, the Elder understood Yin Sudie's thoughts and did not stop her from going after them herself.

Thus, Yin Sudie had recruited two capable helpers from within the Glazed Sect and used the sect's spatial array to teleport to a city a hundred thousand miles away, arriving just in time to intercept them head-on.
