X-Dragon Era-Chapter 534 - Starting the Counterattack_2

Looking at Lan Se's dejected expression, Xin Yun sighed and shook his head, "Lan Se, you really don't need to stay here. I know you don't like chaotic places, but you could go visit the places that are rarely frequented by ordinary people!"

"Huh?" Hearing Xin Yun's words, Lan Se looked at him with confusion.

Facing Lan Se's puzzled gaze, Xin Yun smiled and said, "Not to mention anything else, there are many ice mountains around here, right? With your Ice Escape, you can go and check each one out. Every great ice mountain should have a Profound Ice Crystal Core, and once you find a new Profound Ice Crystal Core, you won't have to worry about the ice mountains collapsing when you absorb their power!"

"But... if I leave, what will happen to this place?" Hearing Xin Yun's words, Lan Se hesitated.

Laughing, Xin Yun shook his head, "That's not a problem at all. I can send someone to guard this place, and if anyone comes, they can immediately call you back. Besides, with the Taiji Diagram, I can contact you at any time, or even arrive by your side instantly. So why would you confine yourself to this place?"

Feeling ecstatic about Xin Yun's suggestion, Lan Se said joyfully, "That would be really great. If I can absorb the Profound Ice Crystal Cores, my strength will increase very rapidly. Although it will cause other glaciers to collapse, possessing the extreme cold will make the ones I use for defense even stronger."

Smiling and nodding, Xin Yun continued, "Indeed, let the other glaciers collapse if they want to, it doesn't matter much to us. What's important is that you're happy, understand?"

"Yeah..." Nodding happily, with a smile, Lan Se said, "Then it's settled. I'll go visit those great ice mountains. You go ahead with your tasks, don't worry about me."

Hearing Lan Se's words and seeing her joyful face, Xin Yun smiled and nodded approvingly. With a flash of golden light, the gold bridge appeared, and after patting Lan Se on the shoulder, Xin Yun slowly stepped onto the golden bridge and disappeared from Lan Se's blue-hued field of vision.

In the span of a golden flash, a gold bridge reached out from the void and descended directly onto the ground. The next moment... Xin Yun's figure emerged from the gold bridge, stepping down one step at a time.

Looking at his four companions around him, Xin Yun smiled and asked, "You've all finished your cultivation retreats, haven't you? How did it go? Did you manage to complete it?"

Facing Xin Yun's inquiry, the four people excitedly nodded their heads. Although they did not speak, their faces made the answer clear.

"This..." Pondering, Luo Fu scratched his head in disbelief, looking at Xin Yun, "This... Sect Leader, if I'm not mistaken, you've already advanced to the Crystal stage, haven't you?"

"Huh?" Hearing Luo Fu's words, Yi Luo Xiang, Yan Qingying, and Ming Xuan immediately turned to Xin Yun with a bewildered look, having not noticed before, but now upon a closer inspection, they realized he had indeed changed significantly!

Under everyone's gaze, Xin Yun smiled, "Well... I had rather good luck this time, everything went smoothly, and I even comprehended the battle techniques for the new realm, so I broke through directly."

"This..." Hearing Xin Yun's words, the others couldn't help but show a bitter expression. In just six months, he had unified the Nine Dragons and had even advanced in his stage with such ease, which felt unbelievable.

Seeing Xin Yun's modest attitude, Luo Fu chuckled and shook his head, "It must be more than just that. In my opinion, your realm is completely stable now. Without two or three months' time, you can't possibly have achieved all of this. So... you must have spent just over three months to finish everything, and then you hid to consolidate your realm for the remaining two or three months, right?"

Sighing with a wry smile, Xin Yun found himself at a loss for words; how could he tell everyone that because they were too slow, he had nothing to do but cultivate during his spare time?

Seeing Xin Yun's wry smile, everyone burst into laughter. Although they didn't say it out loud, it was quite obvious... they could all guess the reason, and it all went unsaid.

Shaking her head, Yi Luo Xiang knew what Xin Yun was thinking and opened her mouth with a smile, "Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. The situation with our Dragon Sect is not very good. We should think of a solution quickly."

"Oh!" Hearing Yi Luo Xiang's words, everyone turned their heads curiously, including Xin Yun. They were unaware of the current situation of the Dragon Sect. Only Xin Yun was slightly more informed, yet even he knew only that Shoushan had been taken.

Facing everyone, Yi Luo Xiang said seriously, "About five months ago, which was a month after we went into our second retreat, the Crazy Dragon Gang arrived at Shoushan and issued a challenge. At that time, we were all in retreat, and after the Seven Kills Leader couldn't hold them back, he retreated. As for the current situation at Shoushan, I'm not very clear."

"The Crazy Dragon Gang?" Rubbing his chin thoughtfully, Xin Yun searched his memory carefully, thinking hard, but he didn't find any information about this gang in his mind. Clearly, this was probably a minor, insignificant gang.

While pondering, Yi Luo Xiang continued, "I've already learned some details through the Five Rat Brothers and the Double Kills just now. This Crazy Dragon Gang is not to be underestimated, with two Diamond Stage experts, eighty-three Amethyst Stage experts, over a hundred Crystal Stage experts, and more than a thousand Gold Stage experts!"

"Huh?" Hearing Yi Luo Xiang's words, Ming Xuan exclaimed, "How can there be so many of them! Doesn't that exceed a hundred already? If that's the case, why call it a gang? It should be called the Crazy Dragon Sect, right?"

Looking at Ming Xuan silently, Xin Yun began to explain, "That's right, the number of their people does meet the standard of a sect, but establishing a sect isn't just about having enough people."
