At the same time, as the Rain Covering Sword God took office as the Alliance Hierarch of the Martial Alliance.

Ye Family.

It has been the third day since the Ye Family lost contact with the outside world after the Ban Order was issued.

At this moment, Ye Zhongshan sat by the lake with a weathered, forlorn expression, staring blankly at the lake surface for hours without moving.

His mental state was visibly poor.

Completely different from the demeanor he often exuded on television before.

At this moment, Ye Mengyun walked in.

Seeing her grandfather Ye Zhongshan looking so haggard, tears welled up in Ye Mengyun's eyes.

From her childhood until now, in her mind, her grandfather was always a great man, standing tall and vigorous, full of fighting spirit and passion.

But now he had become so downcast.

It's no exaggeration to say that this was probably the biggest challenge of his life.

So, Ye Mengyun understood clearly the distress in her grandfather's heart at this moment.

She slowly walked to Ye Zhongshan's side and said softly:

"Grandpa, news just came in from outside."

"The Martial Pavilion has been abolished, and now, it has been reorganized as the Martial Alliance."

"One of the Five Great Sword Gods, the Rain Covering Sword God, he... has taken the position of Hierarch!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Zhongshan's expression changed slightly, and then he said hoarsely:

"The Five Great Sword Gods have indeed entered the Heavenly King Sea."

"What about Zhou Yu?"

"Any news of him?"

Ye Mengyun nodded.

"Yan Kun from the Yan Family took people to Hu City Martial Pavilion, even Lian Tian went."

"But Zhou Yu escaped."

"Currently, his whereabouts are unknown."

Upon hearing this, a gleam suddenly appeared in Ye Zhongshan's weary eyes.

He asked Ye Mengyun to help him stand up, and then he rarely smiled, saying:

"I knew this kid would be okay."

"This unprecedented upheaval in three hundred years, he is definitely a disruptor, even the greatest disruptor in a millennium."

Unexpectedly, Ye Zhongshan had such a high evaluation of Zhou Yu, which left Ye Mengyun shocked.

"Grandpa, aren't you overestimating this guy?"

"Now without our Ye Family and the Martial Pavilion as a backing, no matter how talented he is, he can't withstand those ancient families of the Yan Family in the Capital City, not to mention the Heavenly King Sea."

"Hehe."

Ye Zhongshan smiled meaningfully.

"Zhou Yu's backing has never been our Ye Family, nor any Martial Pavilion."

"Oh?" Ye Mengyun was taken aback.

"Grandpa, do you mean he has an even more powerful backing?"

Ye Zhongshan nodded and said:

"Naturally."

"Otherwise, do you think a martial arts genius, who appears once in a century, sprang out of a stone?"

"His master is no ordinary person."

Hearing this, Ye Mengyun became increasingly curious.

"His master?"

"I've investigated many times, but couldn't find out."

"As far as I know, many have investigated, but there were no results."

"Grandpa, you know?"

Ye Zhongshan nodded and said:

"Of course."

"His master is that old fellow who was once third on the Heavenly List."

"Third on the Heavenly List..."

Ye Mengyun was stunned, then exclaimed without restraint:

"The Primordial Elder, Gu Yue?"

"That's right, it's him!" Ye Zhongshan said, his eyes filled with excitement and fervor.

At this moment, Ye Mengyun only felt her heart and mind shaken.

She hadn't met the one known as the Primordial Elder, Gu Yue, but she had heard tales of him since she was a child.

It is said that he ascended to the third on the Heavenly List by killing the original third on the list.

This isn't extraordinary in itself, but he achieved it with a single move.

Ever since, he has been ranked third on the Heavenly List, but no one knows his true strength.

Later, six hundred years ago, during the great turmoil in Dragon Country, he stepped forward, intimidating all heroes, and protected the orthodox martial arts of the Dragon Country.

After that, he vanished without a trace...

After her shock, Ye Mengyun swallowed hard, suddenly realizing something, and immediately asked:

"Grandpa, could it be that this time the Heavenly King Sea is targeting Zhou Yu because of this Primordial Elder?"

An icy look appeared in Ye Zhongshan's eyes.

He nodded and said:

"Although I don't know what their plan is, I do know that their goal must be the Primordial Elder."

"The Heavenly King Sea does not allow anyone to transcend their control."

"But they can't find the Primordial Elder, so they plan to draw him out through Zhou Yu!"

Hearing this, Ye Mengyun trembled and looked shocked.

"Grandpa, that night you all... was it because of this matter?"

Ye Zhongshan nodded.

"Yes."

...

Hang City.

This is a city whose economic strength is second only to Hu City.

It is located less than five hundred kilometers from Hu City.

Here, prosperity is entirely different from that of Hu City, manifesting not only in economic development but also in the heritage of martial arts.

In the evening, Zhou Yu and Yun Feifei stepped into Hang City.

To avoid drawing attention from those with intentions, Zhou Yu and Yun Feifei restrained their auras, pretending to be a couple on a leisure trip.

The two walked while sensing, and soon they discovered a gathering place for martial artists.

It was a tavern, Lanyue Pavilion.

Zhou Yu glanced at the three flamboyant characters, a hint of intrigue in his eyes.

"Unexpectedly, in this mundane bustling area, so many Innate Realm experts are gathered here."

"Sister Yun, let's go up to have a meal and learn about the situation here."

"Alright." Yun Feifei nodded.

The two held hands and walked in together.
