Although he said he wasn't afraid of Wu Zhong, An Ruosong was still quite apprehensive deep down.
He returned to the Hunyuan Sect, taking his time and carefully avoiding leaving any traces, often taking detours to prevent Wu Zhong from catching up.
A journey that normally would take two or three days ended up taking him five full days.
He also ordered people to carefully watch over Ye Lingyue, giving her no chance to escape.
To An Ruosong's relief, aside from sensing Wu Zhong's terrifying aura once near the vicinity of Sifang City, Wu Zhong's presence had vanished in the days following.
It seemed Wu Zhong had been misled by An Ruosong's Eye-blocking Technique.
For this, An Ruosong felt smug for a while.
After days of travel, Ye Lingyue was brought to Hunyuan Mountain, located at Beiqing Peak, the base of the Hunyuan Sect.
Hunyuan Sect, the largest sect among the Nine Sects, is located on Hunyuan Mountain, which is less a single mountain and more a series of continuous ridges.
