Coming to Offer Tribute, Dharma Intent Fusion

"Where is your sect's Blind Daoist?"

Wei Tu asked in a detached tone.

He did not care that Stone Mortar Mountain had occupied the Southern Region, but that did not mean he would show Stone Mortar Mountain too friendly a face over this matter.

Being too easy to talk to was tantamount to inviting others to bully him.

"My master is still at Stone Mortar Mountain."

"My master also knows that Senior Wen, Abbess Lan, the Golden Silkworm Snow Lady, and the others resisted the demonic heretics of Ghost Shadow Palace. The Blissful Divine Marquis of the Netherworld Sect was killed by... Senior Wen. By all rights, the Southern Region should belong to Senior Wen..."

"Coming rashly to the Southern Region without informing Senior Wen would inevitably have been somewhat inappropriate..."

Lai Yingsong had been closely watching Wei Tu's expression. Seeing the faint displeasure on Wei Tu's face, his heart jolted, and he hurriedly recited the excuse he had long prepared.

The Southern Region was a fat chunk of meat.

After learning from Abbess Lan that no Spirit Transformation cultivator guarded the Southern Region, it was impossible for Stone Mortar Mountain not to covet it.

It was simply that Wei Tu's combat strength was truly too formidable. To occupy the Southern Region, they could not avoid this "Southern Region Spirit Transformation" cultivator.

Thus, Stone Mortar Mountain had taken a clever shortcut. Under the pretext of helping Wei Tu "guard his mountain gate," they had occupied the prime lands of the Southern Region.

—They had learned that after the battle at the Netherworld Sect branch altar, Wei Tu had long since gone with the Golden Silkworm Snow Lady and Heaven-Brow Snow Lady to Great Snow Mountain in the Northern Region, making it impossible for him to return to the Southern Region
