Tongtian Cult Master's expression unexpectedly brightened because of Li Xiao's breakthrough. Stroking his long beard, he smiled at Li Xiao.
"Yes, Master!"
Li Xiao hurriedly rose and cupped his hands to Tongtian Cult Master. Why the hell would I work hard? Being a slacker is the true way.
"All right, disperse!"
Tongtian Cult Master said calmly.
"Yes, Master!"
The Immortals of the Jie Sect cupped their hands and departed one after another.
Li Xiao also returned to his own cave abode.
Li Xiao was Tongtian Cult Master's personal disciple, so he was permitted to establish a cave abode on the island.
After returning to his Fifth Peak and Fifth Grotto, Li Xiao flopped down and continued sleeping soundly.
Work hard? That was never going to happen!
Being a slacker was the hard truth!
Fifth Peak and Fifth Grotto were names Li Xiao had come up with himself.
Back when Tongtian Cult Master had accepted Li Xiao as his fifth personal disciple and told him to establish a cave abode on Golden Ao Island, Li Xiao had casually chosen those names, nearly angering Tongtian Cult Master to death.
He had told him to choose freely, but these names were far too casual!
After everyone dispersed, Tongtian Cult Master suddenly had a whim and swept his divine sense toward Fifth Peak, wanting to see what Li Xiao was doing.
At this glance, Tongtian Cult Master nearly suffered a heart attack from rage.
That rascal Li Xiao was still sleeping!
Damn it!
What happened to working hard? It was all a lie...
"Rebellious disciple, rebellious disciple..."
Tongtian Cult Master trembled with rage. He wanted to go to Fifth Peak and teach Li Xiao a lesson, but in the end, he merely sighed and could not be bothered with him anymore.
"Could it be that this humble Taoist made a mistake when I intercepted a trace of the Heavenly Dao back then? Could Li Xiao not be..."
Tongtian Cult Master was deeply suspicious.
Among the disciples of the Jie Sect, only personal disciples were qualified to establish cave abodes on Golden Ao Island.
After Tongtian Cult Master finished expounding the Dao, all the other disciples of the Jie Sect left except for the five great personal disciples.
The Three Xiao sisters also rode the clouds toward Three Immortal Island.
Halfway there, Yunxiao suddenly recalled Li Xiao's voice that she had heard.
"Travel eighty thousand li east, and there will be an immortal island. There is a treasure on that island called the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors. Could it be true?"
Yunxiao was filled with doubt.
After hesitating for a moment, Yunxiao looked at Qiongxiao and Bixiao and said, "Sisters, come with me!"
"Sister, if we are not returning to Three Immortal Island, where are we going?"
Qiongxiao asked.
Yunxiao gave a bitter smile. Unable to explain, she could only say, "Sister is not sure either. You will understand once you come with me and take a look!"
"Oh!"
Qiongxiao and Bixiao answered together.
Yunxiao immediately rode the clouds in the direction Li Xiao had mentioned.
After traveling roughly eighty thousand li, Yunxiao truly discovered an immortal island ahead.
Clouds and mist curled around the island, water vapor rose into the air, and faint dragon roars echoed from within.
"There really is an immortal island here..."
Upon seeing the immortal island, Yunxiao's expression changed slightly, and she was struck by indescribable shock.
"Sister, look! Divine light gathers above that island. There seems to be a treasure there!"
Divine light burst from Bixiao's beautiful eyes as she stared excitedly at the island and spoke to Yunxiao.
At the side, Qiongxiao was equally thrilled.
Yunxiao took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the shock in her heart. "Come, let's go take a look!"
With that, Yunxiao took the lead and flew toward the immortal island on her cloud.
Qiongxiao and Bixiao hurriedly followed.
Upon arriving on the island, they saw abundant spiritual qi, mountain ranges stretching endlessly, and a vast natural lake in the very center of the mountains.
Above that lake, two golden Flood Dragons were fighting.
The dragon roars had come from those two Flood Dragons.
The two Flood Dragons twisted and circled around each other, roaring without end. Suddenly, golden light flashed, dazzlingly bright.
The Three Xiao sisters were forced to shut their eyes by the divine light.
Once the golden light faded, the Three Xiao sisters hurriedly looked again and saw a pair of golden scissors floating above the lake.
Dragon patterns covered the scissors, and divine light glittered from them. At a glance, they were clearly no ordinary object.
Bixiao was overjoyed. She flew up, reached out, and seized the scissors. Looking closely, she saw three Dao characters inscribed on them. Ecstatic, she shouted to Yunxiao and Qiongxiao, "Eldest Sister, Second Sister, these are the Golden Flood Dragon Scissors, a High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure! Our luck is truly incredible, hehe..."
Qiongxiao was delighted to hear this.
But Yunxiao's lovely face twitched violently. Her beautiful eyes widened as she stared at Bixiao and asked, "Third Sister, what did you say these scissors were called?"
"The Golden Flood Dragon Scissors? Eldest Sister, what is wrong? Why do you look so strange..."
Bixiao stared blankly at Yunxiao, utterly confused.
Qiongxiao also noticed Yunxiao's unusual reaction and looked at her with the same bewildered expression.
Suddenly, Qiongxiao seemed to think of something. Looking at Yunxiao, she asked, "Eldest Sister, how did you know there was an immortal island here, and that it held a treasure?"
Yunxiao opened her mouth, yet said nothing.
If she said she had learned of the treasure here by hearing Li Xiao's inner thoughts, Qiongxiao and Bixiao probably would not believe her.
After all, it was far too absurd!
Even now, Yunxiao still felt as though none of this was real.
Was Li Xiao not a waste who had stagnated for ten thousand years?
How could he see our destined opportunity?
Could it be that senior brother Li Xiao was actually wise beyond measure, deliberately pretending to be a good-for-nothing?
Yunxiao's opinion of Li Xiao began to change.
"Right, there are two more treasures..."
Yunxiao suddenly recalled something. Looking at Qiongxiao and Bixiao, she cried, "Sisters, quickly, come with me!"
As she spoke, Yunxiao transformed into a streak of light, left the immortal island, and fled into the distance.
Qiongxiao and Bixiao exchanged a glance. Not knowing what was happening, they could only hurry after Yunxiao.
Following what Li Xiao's inner voice had said, Yunxiao flew roughly one hundred thousand li southeast, then another sixty thousand li west.
Then Yunxiao saw golden light shooting into the heavens ahead, with divine radiance gleaming brightly. Countless seawaters poured backward, as though something were drawing them in.
"Eldest Sister, another treasure!"
Bixiao cried in wild delight.
Qiongxiao was also overjoyed. Excitedly, she said, "Eldest Sister, you are incredible! How did you know there was a treasure here?"
As she spoke, Qiongxiao flicked her sleeve, and a streak of golden light flew toward her.
Qiongxiao caught it with a flick of her hand and looked closely. It was a golden cylindrical treasure, upon which four large characters appeared.
"Primordial Golden Dou!"
"Another High-grade Innate Spiritual Treasure! Hehe, Sister, you are incredible..."
Bixiao was delighted as well.
It is not that I am incredible. It is Senior Brother Li Xiao who is incredible...
The corners of Yunxiao's eyes twitched violently, and enormous waves surged within her heart.
Chapter 4: Could the eldest sister like that good-for-nothing Li Xiao?
"Eldest Sister, are there any more treasures?"
Bixiao stepped closer, beaming with joy.
Yunxiao looked blankly at the two women, then nodded lightly.
At once, Qiongxiao and Bixiao were overjoyed.
"Eldest Sister, there really are more treasures? Where are they? Hurry and take us there!"
Qiongxiao urged excitedly.
"Sisters, follow me!"
Yunxiao turned her cloud around, transformed into a streak of light, and fled into the distance.
Qiongxiao and Bixiao exchanged smiles and hurriedly rode the clouds after her.
The Three Xiao sisters traveled on clouds all the way, until Yunxiao brought Qiongxiao and Bixiao to the place Li Xiao had mentioned.
Profound Light enveloped Yunxiao as she plunged headfirst into the sea and descended deeper and deeper.
"In the sea?"
