King Li's Consort finished speaking...

He then turned to leave.

The people of the Immortal Music Palace became anxious.

The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace's gaze fell on the departing figure of King Li's Consort.

They were about to leave the reception hall.

She was about to speak.

At that moment, a voice rang out inside the hall.

"Alright, you can go now. I'll discuss the clues about the Dragon-Seeking Sect with the Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace Xianle."

These words were spoken.

Everyone turned their attention back to the young man who had just defeated a seventh-level Earth Martial Realm expert in a single move.

King Li's Consort feet sank.

He turned to look at Chen Ning.

It's him again!

This guy has popped up again!

They were absolutely certain of victory, and they were certain that the Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace Xianle Palace would have no choice but to compromise.

Result!

After the man finished saying that...

King Li's Consort clearly noticed that Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace's expression had returned to calm.

All the pressure we just exerted vanished in an instant.

Why aren't you leaving yet?

Chen Ning, somewhat puzzled, urged, "Hurry up, or you'll miss the number two bus."

"No rush. I'd like to see what makes you think you know any clues about the three generations of leaders of the Dragon-Seeking Sect."

King Li's Consort was so angry that she laughed instead.

She stared at Chen Ning, hoping to find a flaw in his expression.

But Chen Ning was fearless.

When the third-generation sect leader was teaching the Spirit Control Technique in the Realm of the Firmament, he also left behind a memory.

However, Chen Ning's attempt to activate this thing using his Divine Power ended in failure.

At the time, Chen Ning thought that this memory should be left for the descendants of the Fairy Qin to see.

However, at this moment...

They learned that the Fairy Qin had also left a wisp of divine thought in the Immortal Music Palace.

Chen Ning then had a new idea.

Perhaps this can awaken the divine consciousness of the Fairy Qin.

"Young friend, tell me about the three generations of leaders of the Dragon-Seeking Sect."

The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace spoke in a friendly manner.

The Grand Elder's face turned cold as he said, "As the benefactor of Yuqing and Qingya, you certainly possess great cultivation and talent, but you must also know that Immortal Music Palace is not a place for empty talk. If you act recklessly and displease King Li's Consort, causing her to refuse to inform Immortal Music Palace of any further information, you will not be able to bear the consequences!"

"Don't worry, no one knows more about the Dragon-Seeking Sect than me."

Chen Ning then smiled and said, "Elder, are you in such a hurry to speak up for King Li's Consort because you're thinking of the Immortal Music Palace, or is there another reason?"

Upon hearing this...

The Grand Elder's expression changed, and she snorted, "I am naturally thinking of the Immortal Music Palace. As for you, if you can't give a reasonable explanation, I'd like to see how you handle this!"

Seeing the old woman speaking to the sect leader like that, Su Ling'er was immediately displeased.

Her eyebrows furrowed, and she glared at the Grand Elder with hostility.

If it weren't for her sect leader forbidding her from acting rashly...

She immediately retorted.

At this moment, the Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace spoke up, "Elder Rong, let's hear what young friend Chen has to say first."

"Yes, Palace Master."

The Grand Elder of the Immortal Music Palace shut up.

King Li's Consort also pricked up her ears to listen carefully.

Chen Ning calmly replied, "The reason I know about the three generations of leaders of the Dragon-Seeking Sect is because I infiltrated the Dragon-Seeking Sect for many years, enduring humiliation and hardship, and only then did I learn such secrets."

Upon hearing this...

Everyone present was taken aback.

Infiltrating to the Dragon-Seeking Sect?

But upon closer reflection, it makes sense.

At their level, they had already heard about the secret treasures of the Dragon-Seeking Sect.

It's not surprising that there are undercover agents lurking among them.

Chen Ning said this to prevent Immortal Music Palace from becoming suspicious.

This is a better explanation.

If he were to tell the truth and reveal his identity, he would likely be seen as a thorn in the side by everyone in the Immortal Music Palace.

The Immortal Music Palace and the Dragon-Seeking Sect are enemies.

This is common knowledge.

Chen Ning paused for a moment, then looked at King Li's Consort.

The latter felt uneasy under his gaze.

"King Li's Consort Li also knows the secrets about the three generations of leaders of the Dragon-Seeking Sect, why don't we discuss them together? You go first."

Chen Ning spoke with a beaming smile.

King Li's Consort panicked for a moment.

Back when Chen Ning just said he was an undercover agent in the Dragon-Seeking Sect.

He lost his confidence King Li's Consort.

She knew nothing about the three generations of leaders of the Dragon-Seeking Sect.

That was entirely a tactic she used to deceive the Immortal Music Palace.

She had other backup plans.

But now, being confronted by Chen Ning, her face immediately turned ugly.

What bad luck!

It's like I forgot to check the almanac before I went out!

That seemingly harmless young man had put King Li's Consort in a dilemma.

Leaving isn't an option either.

I can't explain it.

Before, she could have lied and temporarily fooled the Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace.

Now, who would dare to talk nonsense?

"No way, no way, surely someone can't tell? Are you a fraudster? Coming to the Immortal Music Palace to swindle people?"

Chen Ning asked an exaggerated question, which immediately made King Li's Consort's face turn black.

"Hmph! Your guests from the Immortal Music Palace are far too rude!"

King Li's Consort angrily flicked her sleeve.

They fled the reception hall as if escaping.

The burly, masked woman carried another masked woman and followed them out.

"Alright, now you can speak."

The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace was also somewhat impatient.

This could be a clue that could awaken the patriarch.

How could she not be excited?

"Palace Master, this secret is a memory; it will likely only be of any use once it reaches the place where Fairy Qin's Divine Sense resides."

Chen Ning said this.

After a moment's thought, the Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace said, "Alright, then let's open the forbidden area. Qingya, you and your junior sisters will go together as well."

The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace rose, her gaze deep and unfathomable.

If we can truly awaken the ancestral master's divine will this time, perhaps my seven personal disciples can obtain some fortuitous opportunity.

The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace, however, had long ago foreseen her own destiny.

There is no hope of ever reaching the Heavenly Martial Realm in this lifetime.

The Grand Elder's eyes flickered for a moment, then he silently withdrew from the main hall.

The Immortal Music Palace.

In front of a mountain wall.

A scroll painting hangs in the air.

The painting depicts a woman playing the zither, whose beauty is unparalleled.

Ethereal, like a fairy.

This is the portrait of the Fairy Qin.

Before her death, the Fairy Qin left a wisp of her divine consciousness in the painting.

Chen Ning was standing in front of the painting at that moment.

A slight ripple stirred within State of Mind.

He knew that this was due to the thought and memory left behind by the three generations of sect leaders.

Chen Ning simply closed his eyes.

A powerful Divine Power was released.

The memory left behind by the three generations in his sea of consciousness was now activated.

The Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace stood at the rear with his seven personal disciples.

His expression was solemn and devout.

Some old memories crept into Chen Ning's mind.

He felt as if he were actually there.

It recounts the memories of three generations of sect leaders.

Youthful spirit.

His talent is astounding.

He was appointed to a critical mission.

To meet a beautiful woman.

Later, due to the sect's grand plan, he resolutely bid farewell to the Fairy Qin.

From then on, he devoted himself to the Dragon-Seeking Sect.

The memories then return to the time when the third-generation sect leader was at Supreme Mystery Peak.

In the plum grove, the three generations of sect leaders stood motionless like statues.

Ten days later, when he emerged from seclusion, the sect's higher-ups were all greatly surprised.

This was because the third-generation sect leader at this time already had a full head of white hair.

His face was deathly pale.

As the memory reached this point, a sudden movement occurred in the painting.

The light shimmered.

Shining brightly.

But a faint, sobbing sound could be heard vibrating within it.

Upon witnessing this scene, the Palace Master of Immortal Music Palace was quite excited.

She had been in charge of the Immortal Music Palace for over a hundred years and had never seen any unusual phenomena appear in this painting.

Today, perhaps we will truly be able to witness the divine thoughts of the Patriarch!
