"Squeak!"

Just as Zhou Tong was immersed in his thoughts, the door to the cave finally opened.

Ye Fan and Purple Haze Fairy slowly walked out from behind the door.

"Ye Fan, you're amazing!" Zhou Tong's eyes lit up. Ye Fan really knew how to handle women; even Purple Haze Fairy had accepted him!

Pang Bo also laughed loudly and quietly gave Ye Fan a thumbs up.

"Snort!"

Zi Xia had no good feelings towards Zhou Tong and Pang Bo, and snorted coldly.

Zhou Tong smiled, unconcerned about Zi Xia's attitude. Although he felt somewhat guilty about this, if she gave Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo, she would definitely thank him two hundred years later; even if she didn't, she would only regret not having tried harder.

Pang Bo, who was standing to the side, smiled and then asked Ye Fan gossipy how he had won over Purple Haze Fairy.

Ye Fan glared at the two of them but said nothing.

Pang Bo chuckled and said, "Having a wife really changes you from us single dogs!"

"Zhou Tong, Wushi Scripture you mentioned?" Ye Fan suddenly turned to look at Zhou Tong.

"You haven't even given birth to Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo, and you're talking to me about the Wushi Scripture?" Zhou Tong rolled his eyes at Ye Fan, quite speechless. "You don't actually think that you two can obtain the Wushi Scripture just by getting together? You should at least have a child first!"

Zhou Tong was speechless. You two together think you can get the Wushi Scripture? It's not that easy.

"But then again, what about Ji Ziyue? One of our reasons for coming here was to sabotage the marriage between Wang Teng and Ji Ziyue. Now that you have a wife, are you planning to take a concubine?" Zhou Tong suddenly looked at Ye Fan.

In an instant, Purple Haze Fairy's expression changed, and her gaze toward Ye Fan instantly became extremely dangerous.

Zhou Tong, you bastard, are you trying to kill me?! I finally calmed things down, and you're causing trouble again!!

Ye Fan cursed inwardly, then hurriedly explained to his wife, "No, that's not true. Ji Ziyue was with us when we stormed the Bronze Immortal Palace, so we have some connection. We couldn't bear to see her marry Wang Teng, someone she didn't like, so Zhou Tong suggested it..."

"Yes, it was Zhou Tong, that's right, it was Zhou Tong who suggested it! Back then, the two of them were together in the Bronze Immortal Palace..."

Ye Fan seemed to have found a breakthrough and immediately began to manipulate Zhou Tong and appease Zi Xia.

Damn you, Ye Fan, you're slandering me out of thin air!

Zhou Tong originally wanted to see Ye Fan make a fool of himself, but Ye Fan was so shameless that he immediately slandered him!

"Haha, not bad. This time it was Little Tyrant who suggested it. He couldn't bear to see the pearl of the Ji Family, Miss Ziyue, marry Tiangaozi Teng, so he made such a big show of it. Purple Haze Fairy, think about it carefully, without him, how could we pretend to be Great Emperor?" Pang Bo also shamelessly played matchmaker.

"Yes, yes!"

Ye Fan quickly nodded. "Zhou Tong is the mastermind!"

"Purple Haze Fairy, didn't you hear what Little Tyrant said? He said that all the Saintess maidens and princesses of all the holy lands in the entire Big Dipper are just ordinary people, and only Little Moon of the Ji Family can catch his eye!" Pang Bo said with great seriousness.

"If you two utter another word of nonsense, I'll abandon you. I want to see how many days you can survive without me taking care of you!" Zhou Tong glanced at Ye Fan and Pang Bo and said quietly.

His opening remarks were a bombshell, immediately silencing Ye Fan and Pang Bo.

The entire world is currently searching for them, and if they weren't with Zhou Tong, they would likely be discovered very soon. Their whereabouts can be predicted using methods like Heavenly Mystery Divine Calculation, and without Zhou Tong by their side, their movements would have been predicted countless times already.

If they are discovered next time, there is no doubt that the Killer Assassin Saint of the Assassin Divine Dynasty will definitely take action.

The Assassin Divine Dynasty's main target is Zhou Tong, so they deliberately let Ye Fan and Pang Bo go several times in an attempt to lure out Zhou Tong's existence. However, these attempts have all failed. To be on the safe side, the Assassin Divine Dynasty will definitely not hold back next time and will send the Assassin Saint to deliver a fatal blow.

In fact, the Assassin Divine Dynasty must have realized that killing Zhou Tong would be difficult. So, it would be better to eliminate Ye Fan and Pang Bo first.

"I have nothing to do with Ji Ziyue. We just met by chance. Don't get any ideas." Zhou Tong glanced at Pang Bo and Ye Fan. "I beat up her brother a few times, captured her father, and even defeated the Ji Family's Imperial Son. There's no way I can be with the Ji Family. Don't try to match us up!"

"The Ji Family's Imperial Son has been born? And he was defeated by you?" Purple Haze Fairy was greatly shocked, and her gaze towards Zhou Tong changed, revealing a deep sense of astonishment.

"Now is not the time to talk about these things. Let's take care of Wang Teng first," Zhou Tong said.

"Where will Wang Teng pass through?" Zhou Tong turned to look at Pang Bo.

In fact, although Zhou Tong and his group claimed to be "kidnapping" the bride, they weren't foolish enough to go directly to the Ji Family. The place was riddled with Array Patterns set up by the Void Great Emperor, making it easy to revive the Void Mirror there.

Once inside the Ji Family's territory, even with the Three Lives Bronze Coffin in hand, Zhou Tong would absolutely not be able to withstand it.

The best way is to intercept Wang Teng on the way. As long as Wang Teng is killed, there won't be so many problems.

Zhou Tong quickly steered the conversation back on track, and Ye Fan and Pang Bo immediately began to think as well.

"According to our previous investigation, as well as the inquiries of Tu Fei and Li Heishui, Wang Teng's trip to the Eastern Wasteland was probably aimed at the Wu Shi Bell. However, with the commotion we've caused, Wang Teng probably won't go to Purple Mountain anymore."

"Based on the intelligence provided by Li Heishui and his team, if I'm not mistaken, Wang Teng should pass by Sword Lake in the Southern Region in ten days. We can intercept him there," Pang Bo replied.

After taking Purple Haze Fairy away from the Mysterious Scholar Mansion, Ye Fan and Purple Haze Fairy were "exchanging feelings," while Zhou Tong did not want to waste time and continued to comprehend the ancient scriptures he had mastered, especially the many marks he obtained from the Hegemonic Bell.

Therefore, it was Pang Bo always the one gathering intelligence outside, searching for Wang Teng's whereabouts, and also handling the information exchange with Tu Fei and his gang of small-time bandits.

"Sword Lake in the Southern Region? Where is it?" Zhou Tong frowned.

"At the border between the Southern Region 'Wei Kingdom and the Lu Kingdom!" Pang Bo casually waved his hand, and his divine power transformed into a map that appeared in the Void the Great before him.

The map is divided into sections representing countless small countries in the Southern Region, with several important locations marked, such as the Primordial Forbidden Land and the Ji Family Headquarters.

Pang Bo lightly tapped the border between two small countries, instantly marking the location of Sword Lake.

"Sword Lake is named for its clear and bright waters, from which countless wisps of sword light occasionally rise. Legend has it that two ancient sages who specialized in swordsmanship once fought here, and their sword intent and energy settled in the lake, eventually forming this Sword Lake, which spans three thousand miles in circumference."

As Pang Bo recounted the legend of Sword Lake, he introduced the place to everyone.

"Was there any danger in the sword light left behind by the ancient sages who once fought there? And why did Wang Teng bypass that place?" Ye Fan asked.

"How could that be? After all these years, time can change everything. Even if there was danger when Sword Lake was first formed, it is definitely safe now after countless years!" Zhou Tong said leisurely.

"If I were Wang Teng, even if I hadn't passed through Sword Lake, I would definitely have gone to see this place after realizing that there was no hope of entering Purple Mountain and that I hadn't been able to obtain the inheritance of the Wu Shi the Great Wushi. Maybe I could have comprehended some of the profound meanings of the scriptures left behind by the sages."

"At the very least, the sword energy and sword intent that occasionally appear in the Sword Lake may contain the essence of the Great Dao of the two sages. As long as you comprehend even a little bit, you will make great progress."

Purple Haze Fairy, who was standing to the side, nodded in agreement with Zhou Tong's statement.

It has to be said that Ye Fan is indeed a seasoned player in the game of love; his methods for dealing with women are incredibly skillful. Purple Haze Fairy is now practically on the same side as the others.

"You all wait here, I'll go and kill Wang Teng alone!" Zhou Tong said finally after a moment of contemplation.

"You want to suppress your cultivation and fight him fairly?" Ye Fan was surprised and immediately asked back.

"Indeed... Wang Teng inherited the legacy of the Great Emperor Luangu from a young age, and his talent is also strong. Apart from the ancient people who were sealed away in ancient times, among the people of the Big Dipper generation, he is the only one besides me who has cultivated to the Second Layer of Immortal Platform. As an 'opponent' who has embarked on the Emperor's Path, I am willing to give him a chance to fight on equal footing!!" Zhou Tong's tone was very calm.

He didn't need to resort to any schemes or ambushes to deal with Wang Teng. In a battle between equals, he feared no one!

Only when dealing with seniors whose cultivation far surpasses one's own do one need various methods, but if even killing Wang Teng requires an ambush or conspiracy, that would be the greatest humiliation for oneself.

"I want to watch the game!" Ye Fan immediately said.

Having missed the battle between Zhou Tong and the Ji Family's Imperial Son last time, Ye Fan also wanted to see what a real clash on the Emperor's Path was like, as a way to prepare for his future.

"That's right, I want to go and see too. We couldn't watch your battle with the son of the Void Great Emperor last time, we absolutely can't miss this one!" Pang Bo also clamored to go and watch the battle.

Purple Haze Fairy, standing to the side, also showed surprise in her eyes, and even a hint of eagerness to try.

She also wanted to see the pinnacle battle of the current generation of young Big Dipper cultivators, and even more so, she wanted to see the true combat power of Zhou Tong, who was stirring up the entire Big Dipper cultivation world.

"You can go, but I'm aiming for a battle against someone of the same cultivation level. Don't put pressure on Wang Teng!"

Zhou Tong agreed, but he needed Ye Fan and the others to guarantee that they would not interfere in the battle.
