Chapter 2097: Battle in the Dark
Yu Ye and everyone else were watching at Yu Lin. Lin Feng looked at the young men next to Yu Ye, noting their eyes were filled with admiration and respect. When the difference between them and other people wasn’t big, they were jealous, but when the difference between them and other people was huge, they looked at them with respect and admiration. Yu Lin was the strongest young man of their clan both in terms of deployment spells and strength.
Yu Ye beamed, her admiration evident.
“Yu Lin!” At that moment, Yu Kun and the others stepped forwards, and Yu Lin and his friend descended from the sky.
“Uncle Kun!” said Yu Lin to Yu Kun, then he introduced his friend, “This is my fellow disciple, Su Mu!”
“Little Su Mu, welcome to our Yu Clan, your presence brings light to our humble dwelling,” said Yu Kun with a smile.
“Uncle Kun, you’re too polite. Yu Lin and I are like brothers. I’m happy to help him,” returned Su Mu calmly. The members of the Yu Clan all nodded happily, glad to see both of them!
In Godly Clouds or in the Dark Night Region, everybody respected geniuses and talented people!
At that moment, Yu Lin walked over to Yu Ye and smiled easily.
“Brother Yu Lin,” Yu Ye smiled. She took a few steps forwards to greet him.
“Yu Ye, you’re becoming more and more beautiful,” Yu Lin smiled. He took a step forwards and caressed her cheek and smiled. “Come, Little Ye, let me introduce you my friend, Su Mu.”
“Brother Su Mu,” Yu Ye greeted Su Mu. Her beautiful eyes were filled with esteem and respect. Su Mu was Yu Lin’s friend and had come to the Yu Clan, which meant he was also very talented. She knew how strong people from the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry were.
“Yu Lin told me how beautiful his little sister was. Now that I see you, I can confirm. Unfortunately, there aren’t many women in the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry. If you could join us, that would be great,” said Su Mu grinned back at her.
“Brother Su Mu, you’re joking. I’m not talented enough. How could I become a member of the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry?” replied Yu Ye. She didn’t lie, as even though she was talented, she knew she wasn’t talented enough to become a member of the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry. After all, that was a place where you could see Great Deployment Masters. No matter what a person’s social status was, talent was the most important thing!
“We can exchange a lot this time. Maybe you will suddenly improve and meet the requirements to join the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry,” Su Mu smiled.
When Yu Ye heard Su Mu, she beamed happily and said, “Thank you very much, Brother Su Mu! We can exchange views on various thing, just don’t give up halfway!”
“We won’t have time to fall in love though,” said Su Mu jokingly.
Yu Kun’s eyes flashed, he wanted to say something, but Yu Lin whispered, “Uncle Kun, she isn’t a teenager anymore. Brother Su Mu is extraordinarily talented. She should cherish this opportunity.”
“Alright, Yu Lin. Then you can help,” Yu Kun grinned. Yu Lin wanted to act as a middleman.
“Of course,” Yu Lin nodded. He raised his head and looked at Lin Feng and Tantai, next to Yu Ye. He asked, “Uncle Kun, I don’t know those two people. Are they from the Yu Clan too? Why are they standing so close to Little Ye?”
“They aren’t. Lin Feng and Yu Ye got to know one another in the Dark Night Region, they met by accident on the way back to Godly Clouds. His teacher is a Great Scholar, that’s why I told Yu Ye to get close to him,” said Yu Kun using telepathy.
“His teacher is just a Great Scholar? Brother Su Mu became a Great Scholar when he was five years old. Uncle Kun, in the future, don’t let Little Ye hang out with him, otherwise Brother Su Mu won’t be happy and it might ruin everything. Brother Su Mu seems to be interested in Little Ye,” replied Yu Lin. He was from the Yu Clan, he hoped Yu Ye could enter a better clan. Su Mu was talented, every bit as strong as himself. He hoped they could become a couple.
“Alright, good. I’ll tell her to stay away from him, then,” Yu Kun nodded.
Yu Lin didn’t add anything else. He didn’t spend too much time on Lin Feng. Even though Great Scholars could be beneficial for the Yu Clan, to someone from the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry, a Great Scholar wasn’t important, they had too many. Some people there of the same age were as strong as he was and were already Great Scholars. Therefore, Yu Lin didn’t care about Lin Feng’s teacher being a Great Scholar.
——
Even as Su Mu and Yu Lin arrived, there were also three young people chatting in a palace in the Jing Clan.
“Yu Lin arrived?” asked one of the young men to someone entering the main hall.
“Yu Lin and Su Mu,” replied the man.
“Su Mu and Yu Lin are good friends. But the Yu Clan are too naive. They think they can prevent us from getting their deployment mine?” said Jing Yan calmly. He sounded self-confident, as if the situation was perfectly under control.
“Brother, Yu Lin, that little boy, opposed our brother in the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry. The Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry can’t do much against him. We should teach him a good lesson,” said a young man standing in a lower position, smiling at Jing Yan. He was also from the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry.
The Jing Clan and the Yu Clan were both families of deployment spell casters, their most outstanding descendants all went to the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry to practice cultivation.
“Yu Lin and Su Mu are not easy targets. We have to be vigilant. Don’t ruin the plans. Unfortunately, our friend hasn’t come. Otherwise, we would have easily invaded all the deployment mines,” Jing Yan said calmly.
“He’s doing all he can to get ready for the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds. We should be happy for him. If he had come, we would have crushed everyone.” Everyone nodded. The Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds was extremely important for everyone. The most outstanding people of the whole continent were getting ready for the Meeting of the Continent of the Nine Clouds!

At the same time, apart from the Jing Clan and the Yu Clan, the two other clans were also getting ready for the competition over the deployment mines. Hou Qing Lin and Tian Chi had already managed to infiltrate those groups. The clans were happy to receive some help, and coupled with the geniuses they had invited, keeping their deployment mines would be no problem. They all understood that the biggest competition was between the Yu Clan and the Jing Clan. They just hoped that the Yu Clan would be able to protect themselves and would prevent the Jing Clan from taking another step forwards, otherwise, the Jing Clan would also start putting pressure on them.
The Jing Clan had wild ambitions. Everybody in Qing Shan City knew that. Everybody in Qing Shan City paid attention to those clans, wondering if the Jing Clan would succeed…

After Yu Lin and Su Mu arrived, Yu Ye stopped spending time with Lin Feng. Sometimes, Lin Feng saw her with Su Mu, but a new girl had started spending time with them: Yu Xin!
Even though Yu Xin wasn’t as beautiful as Yu Ye, she was also quite pretty, she looked dainty and delicate, and was also extremely polite. Lin Feng had talked to her and had realized that she didn’t have such a high position within the Yu Clan. After Yu Lin had come back, things had changed. Lin Feng wasn’t such a lucky find anymore.
Of course, Lin Feng didn’t care. On the contrary, he actually found Yu Xin more friendly. She was kinder and more honest. When Lin Feng didn’t know something, he asked her directly and she always told him things clearly.

Lin Feng, Tantai, and Yu Xin were walking on a path in the Yu Clan, and bumped into Yu Ye and Su Mu.
When Yu Ye saw Lin Feng, she nodded at him and then looked away and continued talking to Su Mu. She looked extremely happy. Lin Feng overheard their conversation; Yu Ye wanted to bring Su Mu over to the Yu Clan’s deployment mine.
Yu Ye had seemingly forgotten that she had promised to Lin Feng she would take him to the Yu Clan’s deployment mine.
Of course, Lin Feng didn’t care. He cared about Mu Chen!
“Lin Feng, what do you think?” asked Yu Xin, smiling at Lin Feng and watching the two people passing.
“They’re a perfect match. Su Mu is a genius of the Celestial Remarkable Deployment Ministry, and Yu Ye is extremely beautiful. They’re perfect for one another,” Lin Feng said very naturally. He did think they were a good match.
“Hihi, I thought you’d be jealous,” Yu Xin smiled.
“Why would I be?” said Lin Feng, shrugging and pinching Yu Xin’s cheeks, which made her blush; she moved away and glanced at Lin Feng.
“Haha, you’re funnier than Yu Ye,” Lin Feng smiled, walking on.
Yu Xin looked at Lin Feng’s back and muttered, “What kind of guy is this!”
“You’ll understand soon enough!” Tantai laughed, and followed Lin Feng with big strides.
Yu Xin looked at the two friends and laughed. She quickly caught up with them and asked, “Lin Feng, where are we going?”
“We’re going to the Yu Clan’s deployment mine!” said Lin Feng calmly. He was very interested in the deployment mine!
