Chapter 587: Chapter 586: Qin Yanyang is Coming
"From the heavens?" Tong Yunshu was stunned, lifting her head to look at the sky.
A full moon hung high in the sky, the primordial forest in the early summer season still seemed a bit chilly under the moonlight, with a cold sensation coming with the wind.
"Hehe, my idea is too absurd, you shouldn’t take it seriously." Yang Fei said with a smile.
Tong Yunshu did not respond.
Yang Fei looked at her in surprise, only to see Tong Yunshu staring solemnly at the sky, gazing at the high-hanging full moon, her face showing a hint of confusion, as if she had fallen into some deep thoughts.
Yang Fei’s heart stirred, and he did not disturb her.
After a good long while, Tong Yunshu seemed to come back to her senses and said, "Looking at the sky from here, it really does seem a bit different from other places."
"Different?" Yang Fei was taken aback, "How is it different? Did you discover something?"
Ever since Tong Yunshu had cultivated the Great Yellow Court Technique to the Sixth Rank of the Energy Transformation Realm, Yang Fei had felt that her ability to perceive and capture the power elements of the world exceeded his own, as if she could sense some forces that he could not detect.
Tong Yunshu thought carefully, then shook her head and said, "It seems I can feel something special, but when I think about it carefully, it seems not, yet I always feel that looking at the sky from here is somewhat different."
Yang Fei looked up at the sky.
It didn’t seem different at all.
Could his absurd speculation have actually led Tong Yunshu to discover the source of the rich spiritual energy in Yunwu Mountain Valley?
"Feel it more carefully," Yang Fei said.
If it was really as he had speculated, it would indeed be an earth-shattering discovery.
If this news were to leak out, it might cause a huge sensation.
At that point, the strong ones from the Hidden Sect World would be unable to keep calm and would certainly treat this place as a must-contest territory.
Seeing Yang Fei’s serious expression, Tong Yunshu realized that this matter might be serious, so she sat down cross-legged, following his intentions, and closed her eyes.
Previously, she had tried to perceive intuitively while standing, but now she started to fully activate the Great Yellow Court Technique, integrating herself into the world and fully absorbing everything in the high sky.
All this while, it had been Yang Fei helping her, and now she was happy to do something for Yang Fei, making her feel that she was giving him more than just her body.
Time passed second by second, and after a quarter of an hour, Tong Yunshu entered that mysterious state again.
Yang Fei could clearly sense the power of the world around him surging, the power of the Five Elements attributes of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth all converging, and besides these, many other power elements not belonging to the Five Elements were mixed in, making the spiritual energy attributes swirling around Tong Yunshu complete, giving him a feeling of perfection.
Staying by Tong Yunshu’s side, Yang Fei felt as if he was bathing in a rain of spiritual energy, his whole body extraordinarily comfortable.
He felt a strong urge to engage in Dual Cultivation with Tong Yunshu, elevating their state of cultivation to the optimum.
However, they had tried it many times before, and whenever Tong Yunshu entered this mysterious state, she would immediately form a self-protection mechanism, directly interrupting the Dual Cultivation state, without her even knowing.
In this way, Tong Yunshu entered a mysterious state that was uniquely hers, her face bearing a gentle smile, serene and calm.
Yang Fei shook his head helplessly.
Though she had entered this mysterious state, which was beneficial to her cultivation, she was simply cultivating on her own and could not sense anything different about the sky.
Indeed, two hours later, Tong Yunshu, seemingly preoccupied, opened her eyes and saw Yang Fei had been by her side all along; she said somewhat embarrassingly, "I’m sorry, I just felt as if I had fallen asleep."
Yang Fei shook his head and said, "It’s okay, I’m overjoyed that you can easily enter this unique mysterious state of the Great Yellow Court."
Tong Yunshu thought for a moment and said, "Right after I entered the cultivation state, I seemed to sense everything around me, and the power elements in this sky are indeed somewhat different, like there’s a faint airflow continuously falling from the sky, but when I try to perceive it carefully, I can’t detect much difference."
Yang Fei nodded and said, "It seems there is indeed something unusual about this valley, but what exactly it is remains unclear for now. However, one thing is for sure, it’s a good thing for this valley."
"Yes, it should be a good thing," Tong Yunshu said.
Yang Fei said, "Observe slowly, I believe that as your realm and strength increase, you will soon discover the subtleties here."
"I definitely will," Tong Yunshu declared with a resolute gaze.
Back at the dormitory, Yang Fei said to Tong Yunshu, "I must report the situation here to Qin Yanyang truthfully."
Tong Yunshu felt somewhat disheartened.
But she also knew that Yang Fei had done his best.
If a place could be found in the depths of Bear Mountain to replace this one, Yang Fei would certainly not choose it as the Military Department’s secret base but would leave it for the Tong Family to manage together.
However, the two had searched the surrounding area for days and failed to find a second suitable location for a base. Thinking of the greater good, Yang Fei would definitely inform Qin Yanyang about this place.
"You go make the call," Tong Yunshu, understanding Yang Fei’s intentions, said thoughtfully.
Yang Fei hummed an acknowledgment and, without avoiding Tong Yunshu, took out his cellphone and called Qin Yanyang.
The call connected quickly, and Qin Yanyang’s voice came through, "Hello, husband."
Yang Fei called her wife but saw Tong Yunshu pout and then come over to push him outside.
She wanted Yang Fei to return to his own room to make the call because she didn’t want to watch the man she liked being affectionate with another woman right in front of her.
Out of sight, out of mind; she could avoid thinking about this man being possessed by another woman, but seeing it happen in front of her was something she was still unable to remain indifferent to.
Seeing her displeased, Yang Fei had no choice but to leave Tong Yunshu’s room and return to his own dormitory.
"How is it, any discoveries?" Qin Yanyang asked.
Yang Fei laughed, "Tsk tsk, why else would we be husband and wife? This is truly a case of great minds thinking alike."
He had mentioned to Qin Yanyang last time that they might have found a location for the base, but had not elaborated on the situation.
These past few days he had thought about finding another place, but had not succeeded. With the pressure mounting, he now decided to tell the truth.
"Really? Are you sure this place will help set up the formation and aid in the synthesis of genetic medicine?" Qin Yanyang was ecstatic.
Yang Fei said, "Certainly."
Next, he described the situation in Yunwu Mountain Valley and then paused, thinking, before adding, "And I might have discovered a major secret."
"What secret?" Qin Yanyang asked curiously.
"If I’m not mistaken, the dense spiritual energy in Yunwu Mountain Valley is due to absorbing spiritual power spilling from another world," Yang Fei said.
Qin Yanyang immediately said, "Are you talking about the Hidden Sect?"
Yang Fei silently praised her, his wife was quick-witted and understood immediately.
"Right, isn’t the spiritual energy of the Hidden Sect World constantly disappearing, and these disappearances have been accelerating over the years? Where has this disappearing spiritual energy gone? I’ve observed this carefully for a few days here and discovered that the spiritual energy in Yunwu Mountain Valley doesn’t seem to come from the earth’s veins, but rather from the sky."
"Just wait there, I’ll come over immediately," Qin Yanyang said immediately.
Yang Fei was startled, "You’re coming over now?"
"Yes, I must see it personally. If it’s as you suspect, then Yunwu Mountain will be the most secret location in Divine Continent, an issue of great importance, we must discover and protect it as soon as possible. I’m hanging up, wait for me."
The phone was abruptly disconnected.
Yang Fei was stunned.
He was aware of Qin Yanyang’s decisive nature, but he hadn’t anticipated that she would choose to come to the site immediately after hearing the news.
Thinking of Tong Yunshu in the next room, Yang Fei slapped himself on the face.
Damn, couldn’t this report have waited until tomorrow?
The thought of asking Tong Yunshu to leave in the middle of the night was unbearable!
But could he not ask her to leave?
He was afraid that it was not possible.
With no other choice, Yang Fei reluctantly walked outside.
Apart from persuading Tong Yunshu to leave, he also needed to speak to Zhou Fu and the others to ensure they didn’t slip up when Her Highness the Empress arrived.
