Xiao Mu felt extremely satisfied; the fact that the Three Emperors' Tomb had dispatched two peak Divine Spirit Realm experts to investigate the ruins of the Five Elements Sect's Great War was indicative of their emphasis on the matter.

"Now," he said, "Leader Lv, I am counting on you. Please continue to send people to investigate, and be sure to notify me as soon as there is any news."

"Don't worry."

Lv Liangping's divine likeness responded with a chuckle, "As soon as there is any news, I will notify you immediately. However, Xiao Xiao, don't forget about the divine treasure of the Land God or Mountain God that you promised. I have already committed to Elder Yun and Elder Jin that they will explore the ruins."

My reputation has always been reliable.

Xiao Mu thought to himself but said aloud, "As long as the Third Yellow Tomb can obtain important clues, the divine treasure I promised will certainly not be lacking."

"Haha!"

Lv Liangping's divine likeness let out a relieved laugh, "With your assurance, Xiao Xiao, I can rest easy. Please be assured, I will urge Elder Yun and Elder Jin to investigate the ruins of the ancient Five Elements Sect's Great War as soon as possible."

No sooner had he stepped out of Lv Liangping's temple when the communication from the Divine Monarch of Wu De came through the black jade plate, "The ancestor of the Five Elements Sect is a formidable person too, possessing the power of the Five Elements under heaven. His combat strength also ranks among the forefront of True Gods."

"However, this person has always remained neutral, not inclining towards either the Heavenly Court or the rebels. It's really puzzling why Bai Jing would start a war with such a person."

"In my view, Bai Jing has gone mad by starting conflict and making enemies everywhere."

Xiao Mu could hear the resentment in the words of the Divine Monarch of Wu De, who seemed to still harbor grievances about being suppressed by the Lord of Bai's Mansion.

And yet, he had always had a favorable impression of Bai Jing, who guarded the Human world, so he couldn't help but defend him, "Senior, the Lord of Bai's Mansion doesn't seem like someone who would wager war lightly. His conflict with the ancestor of the Five Elements may have hidden reasons that we just don't know."

"Hidden reasons? Haha!"

The Divine Monarch of Wu De let out a sneer of disdain through the black jade plate, "Perhaps. However, Xiao Mu, I advise you not to think too highly of people you don't understand. Perhaps in your mind, Bai Jing is a good man, but the truth may not necessarily be so."

You were suppressed by the Lord of Bai's Mansion, of course you wouldn't speak well of him.

Xiao Mu didn't quite agree with the Divine Monarch of Wu De's words but didn't argue either.

However, the words of the Divine Monarch of Wu De did remind him that although Bai Jing had performed great merits in protecting the eastern region of the Human world, it didn't mean that he should absolutely trust him. He should still have the necessary caution.

Thinking of this, Xiao Mu couldn't help but become more vigilant.

Suddenly, his cellphone rang. Xiao Mu took it out to check the message.

The message was from Huang Yuan: Xiao Mu, you asked me to investigate information about the whereabouts of the Lord of Bai's Mansion. I have found a clue. If you want to know the details, come to my temple to talk.

Huang Yuan also has information related to the Lord of Bai's Mansion?

Xiao Mu was slightly surprised but also secretly pleased. Located at the headquarters of the Alliance, Huang Yuan's position was special, at the heart of the current Human world and formerly the core area of the eastern region.

This meant that the information Huang Yuan had regarding the Lord of Bai's Mansion was very likely more important than what Lv Liangping's Three Emperors' Tomb had.

Putting away his cellphone, he headed towards Huang Yuan's temple.

Both Huang Yuan's and Lv Liangping's temples were outsiders to the Great Tang ruins and were located in the thirteenth district of the temple area. Xiao Mu casually strolled over and soon arrived.

Huang Yuan's temple was equally unimpressive in size, with a faint aura of lightning and calamity Qi leaking from the temple, characterized by extremely yang and unyielding energy. Above the temple were thunder clouds, as though lightning might strike down at any moment.

Upon entering the temple, Xiao Mu saw Huang Yuan's divine likeness on the altar table. He made a respectful gesture towards the divine likeness, which then opened its eyes.

"Xiao Xiao, do you still keep your promise to trade treasures for the information on the whereabouts of the Lord of Bai's Mansion that you sought?" Huang Yuan asked immediately with an interrogative tone, seeming quite distrusting of Xiao Mu.

Still the same, can't a True God Realm powerhouse speak and act with a bit more dignity?

Xiao Mu secretly criticized Huang Yuan's attitude but showed no sign of it on his face. "Senior Huang, of course, my word is my bond. As long as you can provide information related to the Lord of Bai's Mansion, I will give the corresponding reward."

"The amount of the reward will be based on the importance of the information, with the lowest being fragments of a divine treasure and the highest possibly being a True God's fiefdom."

"I don't care about what True God's fiefdom is. All I care about is that your word is your bond."

Huang Yuan bluntly contested, clearly not believing Xiao Mu could provide a True God's fiefdom. "After I returned to the headquarters, I asked a friend for help in investigating, and eventually, we discovered an ancient temple."

"An Ancient Temple?"

Xiao Mu was intrigued and began to ponder the significance of this ancient temple and whose interests it might concern. Given that Huang Yuan took the trouble to send a message specifically to inform him, this ancient temple was clearly out of the ordinary.

"Hehe!"

Huang Yuan sounded amused by the surprise in Xiao Mu's tone, "Did you know that during ancient times, the Lord of Bai's Mansion had a great battle with the ancestor of the Five Elements Sect?"

How does this involve the ancestor of the Five Elements Sect again?

Hearing this, Xiao Mu's heart stirred. If the ancient temple had ties to the ancestor of the Five Elements Sect, it might somehow be connected to the Three Emperors' Tomb.

"Senior Huang, please continue."

Huang Yuan's divine likeness seemed to smile, "On the edges of this ancient temple, we discovered traces of the True Five Elements Qi."

"True Five Elements Qi?"

Xiao Mu's expression shifted slightly. The True Five Elements Qi was an aura that only the holder of the Five Elements Power could leave behind, distinct from regular Five Elements aura. In terms of essence, it was higher than ordinary Five Elements force.
