Eavesdropping on Inner Voices, Yunxiao Draws Her Sword to Chop Dingguang Immortal at the Start

As soon as Taishang Laojun spoke, Primordial Heavenly Venerate was almost angered to the point of spitting blood!

Damn it!

Taishang Laojun, that old schemer!

What do you mean by "come sit at my Shouyang Mountain"? You're clearly coveting his Nine Revolutions Arcane Arts, just in a different way!

Shameless, utterly shameless!

Primordial Heavenly Venerate glanced sideways.

As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face!

Seeing Taishang Laojun's demeanor, Li Xiao quickly cupped his hands and said, "My Grand Uncle-Master's invitation is honored. I will certainly visit in the future!"

"That would be excellent!"

Taishang Laojun nodded, then looked at the other Saints and said, "Since that is the case, this humble Taoist shall take his leave!"

With that, Taishang Laojun turned his green ox and headed back to Shouyang Mountain.

Beside them, Jieyin and Zhunti exchanged glances.

Zhunti Immortal, with a thick skin, smiled and said, "Young friend Li Xiao, when you have free time in the future, you are also welcome to visit my Western Sect!"

Shameless!

You Western Sect, you dare to covet the Nine Revolutions Arcane Arts too?

This time, Tongtian Cult Master and Primordial Heavenly Venerate suddenly turned to look at Jieyin and Zhunti.

The two remained unfazed.

Just then, Li Xiao cupped his hands towards Jieyin and Zhunti and said, "Esteemed Saints, this junior has heard that the Western world is a barren wasteland, far from my East. This junior will not be going!"

Jieyin and Zhunti's old faces twitched violently.

Tongtian Cult Master, however, burst into laughter, "Good, good, good! My disciple speaks well. The Western world is a barren wasteland, we won't go, we won't go, hahaha..."

Jieyin and Zhunti's old faces instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Farewell!"

The two could no longer bear to stay and turned to flee towards Mount Sumeru.

Empress Nuwa hesitated for a moment, then looked at Li Xiao and smiled, "Nephew-disciple Li Xiao, when you have free time, you are also welcome to visit my Palace of Nuwa. Hmm, this is Nuwa's Imperial Token. With this token, anyone from the demon race will see you as if they see this Palace!"

As she spoke, Empress Nuwa flipped her hand, revealing a golden token, and tossed it to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao took the token, his eyes lit up, and he quickly cupped his hands towards Empress Nuwa, "Many thanks, Empress Nuwa!"

It was currently the era of the Wu and Demon dominance. With this Nuwa's Imperial Token, Li Xiao would be safer when traveling through the Primordial World.

"Since that is the case, this Palace shall also take its leave!"

Empress Nuwa nodded, then turned and vanished into the void, returning to the Palace of Nuwa.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate glanced at Li Xiao, wanting to speak but stopping, he sighed helplessly and turned to return to Mount Kunlun.

In fact, Primordial Heavenly Venerate also wanted to invite Li Xiao to visit Kunlun Mountain and perhaps subtly inquire about the Nine Revolutions Arcane Arts, but he really couldn't bring himself to say it. Thus, he could only flee first and figure out a way later.

"Disciple, let's go!"

Tongtian Cult Master looked at Li Xiao and said calmly.

Li Xiao nodded.

Tongtian Cult Master cupped his hands towards Great Immortal Zhenyuanzi and Old Ancestor Hongyun, then swept his large sleeves, bringing Li Xiao and Yunxiao back to Golden Ao Island.

Upon arriving at Golden Ao Island, Li Xiao found an excuse and returned to Fifth Peak to sleep soundly.

In Biyou Palace.

Tongtian Cult Master set up a series of restrictions and looked at Yunxiao in the hall, asking, "Yunxiao, what happened? Why is your expression so solemn?"

Yunxiao cupped her hands towards Tongtian Cult Master and said, "Teacher, this disciple heard Senior Brother Li Xiao's thoughts, saying... saying that Old Ancestor Hongyun is about to be besieged by the demon race, facing death and destruction, and the Primordial Violet Qi..."

Tongtian Cult Master's pupils contracted sharply upon hearing this, and he raised his eyebrows, exclaiming, "This is indeed useful information, but how does Li Xiao know it so clearly? Could it be..."

"Could it be that Li Xiao is the legendary Son of the Great Dao?"

Tongtian Cult Master added.

Yunxiao's pretty face trembled fiercely, her delicate mouth opening wide.

After a pause, Yunxiao looked at Tongtian Cult Master and asked, "Teacher, if Old Ancestor Hongyun dies, then the Primordial Violet Qi... should we make arrangements in advance?"

"The Primordial Violet Qi is the opportunity to become a Saint, a matter of great importance. Our Intercepting Sect naturally cannot sit idly by!"

Tongtian Cult Master's eyes flickered uncertainly as he said in a deep voice.

In the Western world, on the golden summit of Mount Sumeru.

Jieyin and Zhunti sat facing each other.

The Buddhist light shone behind their heads, illuminating each other, bathing the entire Western world in brilliance.

Jieyin Immortal cultivated the Dream Divine Ability.

In dreams, one can roam freely through the three thousand worlds, a marvel beyond words.

One day, the Daoist Jieyin, in a daze, stumbled into a place. He saw the demon race hidden in the shadows, with Di Jun, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and Demon Master Kunpeng among them.

As Daoist Jieyin looked further, he realized this was the only path to Huoyun Cave.

"Is the demon race planning to ambush Old Ancestor Hongyun and snatch the Primordial Violet Qi?"

In the Western world, on the golden summit of Mount Sumeru, Daoist Jieyin suddenly awoke with a cry.

Daoist Zhunti was also startled awake. He raised an eyebrow and exclaimed, "Senior Brother, what did you say? The demon race wants to snatch the Primordial Violet Qi? This..."

Daoist Jieyin's eyes flickered with an uncertain light. After a long while, he spoke, "Junior Brother, that Hongyun fellow previously yielded his Saint position to us. We owe that Hongyun a tremendous karma. If this karma is not eliminated, I fear our cultivation will never advance further, and our Western Sect will be dragged down by this karma..."

Two beams of light shot from Daoist Zhunti's Buddhist eyes as he looked at Daoist Jieyin and asked, "Senior Brother means..."

"To ignore it, no, we must conceal the Heavenly Secrets!"

Daoist Jieyin said indifferently.

Daoist Jieyin didn't finish his next words, but their meaning was clear!

Not only could they not help Old Ancestor Hongyun, but they had to conceal the Heavenly Secrets, preventing Immortal Zhenyuanzi from knowing about it, thus completely extinguishing Old Ancestor Hongyun's chance of survival!

In this way, with Old Ancestor Hongyun's death and destruction, their Western Sect's karma would also be considered repaid!

Daoist Zhunti took a deep breath and nodded, "Senior Brother is absolutely right!"

With that, Daoist Zhunti unleashed his divine ability to conceal the Heavenly Secrets.

Daoist Jieyin also used his divine ability to assist in concealing the Heavenly Secrets.

Meanwhile, inside Wuzhuang Temple, Old Ancestor Hongyun stood up and cupped his hands towards Immortal Zhenyuanzi, "Fellow Daoist Zhenyuanzi, I have troubled you for many days. It is time for me to return to Huoyun Cave to check on things. I shall take my leave now!"

Chapter 30: Did the Demon Race Really Ambush Old Ancestor Hongyun?

Immortal Zhenyuanzi frowned slightly, looking at Old Ancestor Hongyun. "Fellow Daoist Hongyun, I have been feeling uneasy lately, as if something is about to happen. Fellow Daoist Hongyun, why don't you stay at my Wuzhuang Temple for a while longer and return after some time?"

Old Ancestor Hongyun grinned, "Fellow Daoist Zhenyuanzi, you are being overly cautious. I have always been kind to others and never made enemies. I am known throughout the Primordial World for my good relationships. Who would wish me harm? I bid you farewell, farewell..."

Saying this, Old Ancestor Hongyun ignored Immortal Zhenyuanzi's dissuasion, turned, and left Wuzhuang Temple, riding a cloud towards Huoyun Cave.

"Caw..."

As Old Ancestor Hongyun traveled halfway, a piercing eagle cry suddenly rang out.

"Boom..."

Old Ancestor Hongyun was struck by an immense, violent force, sending him tumbling forward, crashing through mountains.

"Clang..."

Immediately after, a clear bell sound rang out. A colossal bell descended from the sky, crashing down upon the mountain.

A red light shot out, narrowly evading the giant bell!

However, Old Ancestor Hongyun himself was further injured by the bell's shockwave. He staggered, his throat felt a surge of sweetness, and he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. He looked at the assembled crowd with shock and fury.

Di Jun, Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Demon Master Kunpeng, numerous demon saints of the demon race, as well as a host of demon soldiers and generals.

"Di Jun, Taiyi, why are you doing this? I have no enmity with your demon race, why did you ambush me?"

Old Ancestor Hongyun roared, his teeth clenched in anger.

Demon Master Kunpeng's eyes were red as he glared at Old Ancestor Hongyun and said in a deep voice, "Hongyun, you caused me to lose my Saint position. Today, I will have my revenge!"

Eastern Emperor Taiyi snorted coldly, holding the Chaos Bell, and looked at Old Ancestor Hongyun with disdain. He said in a deep voice, "Hongyun, hand over the Primordial Violet Qi, and I will spare your life!"

"Hah, hah, after all this talk, you're after the Primordial Violet Qi? You... this Primordial Violet Qi was bestowed by the Dao Ancestor, how dare you try to snatch it?"

Old Ancestor Hongyun's red robe billowed around him as he glared at the demon race, shouting in a deep voice.

Di Jun rolled his eyes and looked at Old Ancestor Hongyun with disdain, curling his lips. "Fellow Daoist Hongyun, wake up. The Dao Ancestor bestowed seven strands of Primordial Violet Qi, yet he did not take you as a disciple. Why is that? Do you really think so highly of yourself? I advise you, be sensible and hand over the Primordial Violet Qi, otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Old Ancestor Hongyun raised his eyebrows, looking at the demon race with shocked fury, and gritted his teeth, "Hmph, if you want the Primordial Violet Qi, come and get it if you have the ability!"

As he spoke, Old Ancestor Hongyun flipped his hand, revealing a red-skinned gourd. He opened the lid, and a red light flickered within, instantly spewing out countless red sands.

The red sands rolled like malevolent dragons, howling and surging towards the demon race.

"Careful, that's the Nine-Nine Soul Scattering Gourd. The red sands within can harm one's primordial spirit..."

Di Jun exclaimed in alarm upon seeing this.

He quickly patted his forehead, and the River Diagram and Luo Script appeared behind his head.

The two treasures outlined the phantom images of the Primordial World's rivers and mountains, casting down rays of profound light to protect him.

Eastern Emperor Taiyi quickly held the Chaos Bell above his head. The Chaos Bell dripped with chaotic energy, shielding him.

Demon Master Kunpeng was startled and patted his forehead. A magnificent palace leaped out from behind his head.

This was the Demon Master's Palace!
