Wang Yanjing lightly bit her lip and spoke softly.

Although she had long given up on returning to the family, hearing that it was about to be destroyed still unsettled her heart.

"Alas."

Lu Miaoyun, also born into a family of cultivators, could understand Wang Yanjing's current mood.

With the family now sealed off and in imminent danger, as a former Nascent Soul Seed of the family, if she couldn't help even a little or see it once more, it would surely leave a knot in her heart.

After pondering for a moment, she signaled Wang Yanjing to wait and then went to Mount Sumeru Cave Heaven to see Lu Miaoge.

"What's the matter, Yun'er?"

Lu Miaoge had been cultivating Divine Ability Techniques on Bi Lake Mountain for years.

"Sister Miaoge..."

"If we persuade Jing'er not to return, it might cause her to develop a Heart Demon, so I thought of having Xingchen take Little Black to go with her. It's just to do a bit, maybe take some people away, not get involved in the Wang family's matters."

With Lu Changsheng not at home, she naturally discussed such matters with Lu Miaoge.

Lu Miaoge pondered for a moment, her voice soft as water, "Since that's the case, let Xingchen take Little Black and accompany Jing'er."

Wang Yanjing had not only given birth to a Nascent Soul Seed like Lu Xuanqian for the Lu family, but she herself was also considered a Nascent Soul Seed of the Lu family.

In such circumstances, when they had the ability but didn't help, it was hard to justify, truly heartbreaking.

Moreover, one must also consider Lu Xingchen and Xia Zhizue's goodwill, apart from Wang Yanjing.

Xia Zhizue had given birth to six sons for the Lu family, among whom Lu Xingchen had the best talent and was very caring towards her daughter-in-law, who had given birth to such a promising grandson.

"Alright."

Lu Miaoyun responded with a gentle smile, inclined to lend a hand.

Although if this Nine Netherhound at the Third Rank demon king level appeared to the public, it might draw the attention of other family forces or even raise the vigilance of the Qingyun Sect.

With Lu Changsheng and Lu Miaoge as Nascent Soul Cultivators, the Lu family was already feared by many forces. Being overly cautious at this point would seem less free than in earlier days.

Besides, a Third Rank Nine Netherhound couldn't always stay out of the public eye. Taking it out now would also show off some of the family's dignity!

Immediately, Lu Miaoyun sent a message to White Tiger Mountain, instructing Lu Xianzhi to have someone bring the Nine Netherhound back to Bi Lake Mountain.

That afternoon, Lu Xuanyu, son of Lu Xianzhi, arrived at Bi Lake Mountain with the Nine Netherhound.

"Jing'er, since my husband and Sister Miaoge are both in closed-door cultivation, they can't go and interfere in the Wang family matters, so it's decided that the Nine Netherhound will go with you..."

Lu Miaoyun called Lu Xingchen and Wang Yanjing over to speak.

"Nine Netherhound."

They knew Nine Netherhound was the clan guardian spirit beast of the Lu family, currently guarding White Tiger Mountain.

"Nine Netherhound is now a Third Rank Demon King. If you only take a few people away, the other family forces and that Yellow Ape True Man might give you some respects."

Lu Miaoyun said with a faint smile, waving to the Nine Netherhound not far away.

"Roar!"

The Nine Netherhound let out a low growl, its pitch-black fur standing on end, exuding a terrifying Third Rank demonic power.

"Third Rank Demon King!"

Lu Xingchen and Wang Yanjing were both shocked.

They hadn't expected the family's Nine Netherhound to have advanced to the Third Rank!

They were completely unaware of this development.

Lu Xingchen, having seen the family's foundation, could barely accept it, but Wang Yanjing was utterly shocked by the situation, knowing how difficult it was to cultivate a Third Rank Demon King over a century.

The Wang family had also attempted to cultivate a Third Rank guardian holy beast in the past.

However, lacking Beast Taming Inheritance, it was a time and energy-consuming task, with no full guarantee that the spiritual beast would continue to serve the family after its master's passing.

The fact that this Lu family spirit beast not only advanced to the Third Rank but was also so obedient was simply unimaginable!

But despite the Nine Netherhound's obedience, it wasn't very familiar with Lu Xingchen.

"Grandmother, maybe I should go with Uncle Xingchen. We can take care of each other on the way."

Although Lu Xuanyu was a Second Rank Puppet Master, he spent most of his time on White Tiger Mountain, was very familiar with the Nine Netherhound, and often took care of its needs.

"In that case, thank you for your hard work, Xuanyu."

Lu Miaoyun nodded upon hearing this.

Lu Xuanqian, upon hearing about his parents' departure, also wanted to go along, but because of the Five Elements Physique's importance, Wang Yanjing settled him at home.

The arriving Wang family elder was disappointed to see Wang Yanjing bringing only two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, but upon learning the Nine Netherhound was a Third Rank Demon King, he was shocked, then trembled with excitement.

Wang Yanjing gently said to this elder, "Uncle Thirteen of the clan, Five Elements Mountain can't be defended, so it's better to give it up."

Knowing that bringing the Nine Netherhound could only help a little, trying to rescue people, it was impossible to help defend Five Elements Mountain.

"I understand."

The elder naturally understood this reasoning, nodded with some bitterness, and then the group set off for Five Elements Mountain.
