"Destiny will grant you a hint."
"Destiny Hint One: The group of family cultivators from various cities is extremely arrogant. Indeed, they have a reason to be so, as their cultivation is very strong, and they believe they can act as they wish in the Ice Crystal Mountain Range.
However, they have forgotten that the Ice Crystal Mountain Range has always been the territory of the exotic beasts. If they want to act recklessly here, the first to be offended will be the exotic beast forces of this place.
More importantly, the failure to attack Demon Flame City has further fanned the flames of anger among the exotic beasts. They have vowed to seek vengeance in the future, and just a simple trigger could unleash their fury completely.
Tomorrow at noon, you can head northwest to a location 3,500 kilometers away, where a group of Divinity Transformation level exotic beasts will appear. They are descendants of Void Refining beasts, possessing excellent bloodline talents, and given time, they will become new Void Refining beasts, destined to become the backbone of the exotic beast forces.
If you take action and slay these Divinity Transformation level exotic beasts, it will undoubtedly infuriate the Void Refining beasts deep within the Ice Crystal Mountain Range. At that time, the human cultivators who entered the Ice Crystal Mountain Range will surely be affected and meet their ends."
"Destiny Hint Two: Of course, if you find it too base and despicable to borrow a knife to kill, you can choose to intervene personally and kill those cultivators seeking the bounty in Hunyuan Valley.
However, these cultivators come from various noble families. If you choose to kill them, it will continuously attract more family cultivators, and may even anger Void Refining cultivators, which would, in turn, be a greater disaster for Hunyuan Valley. I hope you can choose wisely."
"Indeed, those foreign cultivators are a major nuisance."
Upon sensing this message, Jiang Fanās eyes revealed a trace of coldness.
Since he managed Hunyuan Valley fairly well, compared to other human camps in the Ice Crystal Mountain Range, it was vastly different.
If the family cultivators learned about Hunyuan Valleyās situation, they would surely covet the wealth within.
After all, those family cultivators have already become accustomed to acting recklessly, and they love to seize the opportunities of others.
They can be described as utterly unrestrained.
Guan Tianqi was just one of the many examples being schemed against by noble families, nothing surprising.
Clearly, destiny had already hinted to him, if he chose not to intervene, the family cultivatorsā targeting of Hunyuan Valley was inevitable, this was unavoidable.
This was also the calamity brought by Guan Tianqi, the cultivator with the Immortal Destiny.
This is the power of the Child of Fortune, storm and disaster follow wherever he goes.
"If you seek trouble with me, you canāt blame me for what happens."
Jiang Fan clenched his fists.
He was no fool, naturally choosing the first hint of borrowing a knife to kill.
Choosing the second option would not solve any problem but instead push Hunyuan Valley into the abyss, inciting more disaster, a purely loss-making choice.
However, if he used the beasts to his advantage, the situation would change drastically.
Since the exotic beasts are too powerful, they are not the kind noble families can provoke.
Even if they knew their family descendants died because of exotic beasts, they wouldnāt dare venture deep into the Ice Crystal Mountain Range to seek revenge.
Instead, fearing the danger of the Ice Crystal Mountain Range, they would choose to retreat, regarding it as a forbidden zone.
This way, Hunyuan Valley would be completely safe, no longer requiring worry about being coveted by foreign cultivators.
The only concern was that Hunyuan Valley needed to survive the ensuing exotic beast outbreak without being affected by the beast tide.
But for Jiang Fan, this was a minor issue.
He could completely conceal the entire Hunyuan Valleyās aura from being detected by the exotic beasts.
Whoosh!
With this thought, Jiang Fan did not hesitate and immediately flew towards the northwest according to the hint from destiny.
...
At the same time, many family cultivators also entered the Ice Crystal Mountain Range.
They were frantically searching all over the area, trying to find any trace of Guan Tianqi.
The bounty for Guan Tianqi was enticing enough to make any Divinity Transformation cultivator drool.
Moreover, that kid was only at the Nascent Soul stage, not a great threat to them.
As long as they could find Guan Tianqi, it would be as good as done.
"Damn it, where is that kid hiding in the Ice Crystal Mountain Range? Why canāt we find any useful clues, at this rate, when will we find him? I donāt have that much time to waste."
An elder in a white robe said through gritted teeth.
To him, coming to the Ice Crystal Mountain Range was like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Even after months of searching, he still had no clues.
It seemed as if that mysterious loose cultivator vanished into thin air.
"Actually, Iāve found out that kidās identity, his name is Guan Tianqi."
"This kid originally lived in Profound Abyss City, with his uncleās family."
"But suddenly, a few months ago, Guan Tianqiās uncleās family disappeared without a trace."
"No one knows when exactly they left Profound Abyss City."
"No matter how hard we search, we canāt find where they went."
"Itās as if they disappeared from this world."
"How did that kid manage it, what method did he employ?"
Another black-robed cultivator clenched his fists, growing more curious about that loose cultivator Guan Tianqi. Absolutely, that loose cultivator possessed immense secrets and had obtained astonishing opportunities.
Otherwise, he couldnāt have achieved this.
In fact, this was what all those sent to capture Guan Tianqi were interested in.
Capturing Guan Tianqi not only meant obtaining a huge bounty but also uncovering the great secret and opportunities he held.
In fact, the reason why Guan Tianqiās uncleās family disappeared from Profound Abyss City was naturally Jiang Fanās doing.
Since he decided to save Guan Tianqiās uncleās family, he himself took discreet action.
In silence, he relocated the uncleās family into the Great Xuan Dynasty, settling them in one of its human cities, and made them members of the Great Xuan Dynasty.
This way, it was foolproof, and none of the noble families could find Guan Tianqiās uncleās family.
In the future, Guan Tianqi could reunite with his uncleās family within the Great Xuan Dynasty.
However, for those family cultivators, it was inconceivable, as they had no idea how it was achieved.
Since they couldnāt find any trace, it truly was baffling.
"I donāt know, but if we find that kid, everything will be clear."
"This kind of method has even piqued the interest of some elders."
"They have issued a strict order to bring Guan Tianqi back at all costs."
Another family cultivator said with murderous intent.
After all, it was not merely about settling old scores but rather seizing the opportunity contained within.
If obtained, the benefits for the families would be immense.
No one wanted to miss this opportunity, as it might be a chance to advance to Integration.
"Heh, thatās easier said than done. If it were that easy, we wouldnāt have wasted months."
"Isnāt it? Weāve tried all sorts of methods, like scent tracking, cause-and-effect tracking, divination, but nothing worked. Itās as if he vanished long ago."
"Thatās right, his hiding method is astonishing, far beyond ordinary loose cultivators."
"I just refuse to believe this kid could disappear into thin air, such a large person must be hiding somewhere within the Ice Crystal Mountain Range, perhaps in one of the human camps."
"But there are so many human camps in the Ice Crystal Mountain Range, which one is he hiding in?"
"If we donāt know which, weāll search everything, tearing apart each camp, leaving him no place to hide in the Ice Crystal Mountain Range."
"But if we make such a big move, wonāt it alert the exotic beasts? This is their territory after all."
"Afraid of nothing, previously, the exotic beasts were heavily damaged at Demon Flame City, theyāre probably still licking their wounds. If weāre careful, they wonāt even notice us."
Many family cultivators discussed amongst themselves, exuding deep killing intent.
