Loyalty

The stary skiff finally arrived at the last stop of the Heavenly River Ferry. This humble ferry was welcoming so many stary skiffs for the very first time, to the extent that the stary skiffs had to line up to enter.

Heavenly Soldiers and Generals stood guard at the ferry. Watching so many Heavenly Soldiers and Generals walk down from the stary skiffs, they couldn't help staring in wide-eyed shock.

"With the higher-ups dispatching so many Heavenly Soldiers and Generals, could they be mobilizing troops against Golden Ao Island?"

They couldn't help letting their imaginations run wild.

Golden Ao Island had gone from a place polluted by the Outer Dao back to a holy land, and the Jade Purity Dao Spring had recovered its clarity, creating a massive commotion. The Heavenly Soldiers and Generals guarding Western Penglai had also been startled, surrounding Golden Ao Island. The Daluo Golden Immortals of the Cloudy Sky Cave Heaven were all captured, and a Daluo Golden Immortal made a move—the series of events could truly be described as extraordinarily lively.

Now that so many Heavenly Soldiers and Generals had arrived, they naturally assumed the Heavenly Court was sending troops.

"Isn't the relationship between the Heavenly Court and Cloudy Sky Cave Heaven not all that close?"

Some of them were rather puzzled. "Why would the Heavenly Court still back Cloudy Sky Cave Heaven?"

At that moment, a young man wearing yellow robes and a high crown with broad ribbons walked over, greeted Chen Shi, and smiled. "Daoist Chen, Gongsun Xuanyuan pays his respects."

Hearing this name, Chen Shi's heart beat violently, and he returned the greeting. "Junior Chen Shi pays respects to the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan!"

That yellow-robed man was precisely Gongsun Xuanyuan, the head of the Five Directions Five Elders of the Heavenly Court.
