And those other two elders also met their end with regret for the sake of rescuing Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge fled continuously until she finally reached the borders of Beihan Country and found Li Changqing.

Upon learning the whole story, Li Changqing was equally in disbelief.

The leader of the Longevity Sect, the person concealed beneath the black robe, turned out to be a child.

No wonder every time they encountered this person, they didn’t seem very robust; it was always assumed they were just short, but never imagined that this person was a child.

Moreover, this child had not changed at all for decades.

Truly peculiar.

"What are your plans now?" Li Changqing looked at Mu Qingge and asked.

Mu Qingge appeared quite disheartened and shook her head.

She didn’t know what her plans were.

After leaving Medical King Valley, her only thought was to find Li Changqing; she felt safe upon finding Li Changqing.

Mu Qingge didn’t dare to seek out others because she didn’t know where the Longevity Sect was still hiding.

If found, being caught and taken back would be a dead end for her.

It seemed that Mu Hensheng was already obeying the words of the Longevity Sect, fearing that if she didn’t follow them, Mu Hensheng might indeed be ruthless enough to kill her.

Mu Qingge realized that Mu Hensheng had truly changed.

She wasn’t clear on exactly what benefits the Longevity Sect had promised Mu Hensheng to make him so unwaveringly loyal.

"Do you want to come with me?"

At this moment, Li Changqing extended an olive branch to Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge was the pride of Medical King Valley, and she would be a good choice for his team to thrive.

With her, healing and alchemy wouldn’t be a problem.

In the future, in the Cangyuan Realm, Li Changqing’s influence would surely strengthen against other forces.

Now, at the time of Mu Qingge’s downfall, of course, Li Changqing chose to take advantage of the situation.

"Hmm?"

Mu Qingge looked up at Li Changqing’s face and, seeing the sincerity in his eyes, blushed.

"I... I’m not ready yet." Mu Qingge’s heart began to race, "If I follow you, will Li Hengsheng, that child, have any objections?"

"???"

Li Changqing had a face full of question marks, what are you talking about? 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

"I invited you to join my Evergreen Commerce Association, why would Li Hengsheng have any opinion?" Li Changqing asked, puzzled.

"Huh?"

Mu Qingge’s expression was momentarily stunned.

Join the Evergreen Commerce Association?

"Just join the Evergreen Commerce Association?" Mu Qingge’s face fell, damn man.

"Yeah." Li Changqing explained to Mu Qingge: "I think you can see it too, the entire Cangyuan Realm is increasingly unstable, and major turmoil is bound to happen one day. If there’s no strength, it’s very difficult to survive this turmoil, and you and I could easily become pawns of others."

"So I must prepare early, Evergreen Commerce Association needs you. If you join, the Evergreen Commerce Association will back you up and ensure your safety."

"I’m not exaggerating."

Li Changqing said seriously: "Don’t just think about your father, Mu Hensheng. Even if the Great Martial Sect wants to take you away, they would have to leave dejectedly. If you don’t want to leave, no one can take you, this is my guarantee to you."

"You don’t need to say that much, I’m willing to join too."

Mu Qingge said softly.

"What?" Li Changqing curiously looked at Mu Qingge.

"I’ll join." Mu Qingge suddenly said, "I wonder if you could do me a favor."

"Tell me." Li Changqing asked.

"I left in such a hurry, my disciple is still in Medical King Valley, I’m worried about him, and I don’t want him to stay there either, I want to get him out of there."

Mu Qingge was worried about Yin Changli.

"Alright." Li Changqing nodded in agreement but was silent for a moment before saying, "What do you plan to do about the situation with Medical King Valley? You should know, in the Cangyuan Realm, everyone is eager to eradicate the Longevity Sect. The leader of the Longevity Sect is closely related to Medical King Valley, and even your father is deeply involved. What do you intend to do?"

"I don’t know."

Mu Qingge lowered her head, visibly conflicted.

If it were just the Longevity Sect, Mu Qingge could immediately spread the news and wait for the Longevity Sect to be punished, but since Mu Hensheng was involved, being her father, she was naturally torn about how to handle this matter.

"Don’t overthink it."

Li Changqing recognized the difficulty of the decision and said, "You should rest well first, now that you’ve joined my Evergreen Commerce Association, I’ve got your back."

Mu Qingge nodded.

Li Changqing asked Zhang Fuguang to arrange a room for Mu Qingge to rest.

Meanwhile, Li Changqing went alone to the courtyard.

Li Changqing was also somewhat distressed, as the Longevity Sect hadn’t caused any disturbances recently, he had almost forgotten about this ambitious cult.

But he never expected the Longevity Sect to become entwined with Medical King Valley.

Recalling the black-robed figure he had reluctantly let escape in the Ghostly Realm, which was the same person Mu Qingge had seen since childhood, it seemed the entanglement between the Longevity Sect and Medical King Valley had been ongoing for countless years.

"Things are gradually becoming more complex."

Li Changqing felt a bit troubled, the Longevity Sect seemed like an indestructible roach, appearing everywhere.

And lately, what are they plotting?

Since Mu Qingge discovered their identity and escaped, it is equivalent to Medical King Valley startling the snake, they definitely won’t sit idly by.

It is almost too late to capture their actions now.
