Yun Ting obediently nodded at this and said, "Since the Dao Ancestor has said so, then I'll make the oath." Then he contacted the system. "There won't be any problems on Heavenly Dao's end, right?"
"Don't worry, leave it to this system." Within the system space, A Certain Lady smiled and vanished directly. Not long after, in the Heavenly Dao Space, a Blue-clad Lady said, "Heavenly Dao Dharma Wheel, let's discuss something. Yun Ting's about to make an oath later. You... turn a blind eye, alright?"
"Why should I? Though I don't know how that brat did it, the Heavenly Dao Karma Wheel shows that this matter is related to him." The Great Heavenly Dao Wheel spun three times and gave a snickering laugh.
"Do you think a single drop of Tong Tian's blood could produce a little brat like this?" The lady slapped her forehead, smiled, and continued speaking to Heavenly Dao.
"I'll go check... Holy shit... Fine. No wonder I found this kid so familiar—so that's how it is." The Heavenly Dao Dharma Wheel spun three times, then immediately issued an order for Hongjun to treat Yun Ting better in the future.
Back at Mount Sumeru, Yun Ting directly swore, "Heavenly Dao above, I, Yun Ting, Son of Shangqing, hereby swear that the matter of Mount Sumeru disciple Mahasthamaprapta being Entangled by Karma has nothing to do with me. Otherwise, may I suffer Purple Firmament Divine Thunder."
At the same time, he secretly activated the Heaven and Earth Profound Yellow Exquisite Pagoda, thinking, The system is the first preparation; the pagoda is the second. With this thing shielding me, I won't die even if I take one hit.
After a long while, nothing happened at all. Seeing this, Tong Tian chuckled and said, "Dao Ancestor, you saw it yourself. It's not that we're looking to make trouble for Jieyin and Zhunti. They slandered my son like this—who could stand for that...?"
Hongjun nodded. "I saw it..." As he spoke, he took out a lotus flower and handed it to Yun Ting. "This is the Twelve-grade Pure World White Lotus, a Supreme Innate Spiritual Treasure. Take it."
Yun Ting grinned and accepted the white lotus. "Thank you, Grandfather Dao Ancestor."
Hearing this, Hongjun was immensely pleased. Hahaha, Pangu's son calls me Grandfather. Mm, what a wonderful day. (Pangu from a certain world: Hongjun, you damned dead loach, just wait until I return to the Primordial Wilderness and beat the hell out of you.) Then he returned to Purple Firmament Palace.
Tong Tian was also happy for Yun Ting upon seeing that he had obtained the Twelve-grade Pure World White Lotus. Then Yun Ting said, "Father, I'm going to make a trip to the Sun Star later. Since Di Jun and Taiyi helped out this time, I should naturally treat them to a feast. The Water-Fire Brew made by Water-Fire Boy is pretty good. Do you still have any? If you do, let me bring two bottles over."
A brief explanation here: after Tong Tian obtained the Water-Fire Gourd and returned to Mount Kunlun, he enlightened it into a boy. Not only were his foundations profound, but his cultivation was also at the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm. Moreover, his brewing skills were nothing short of miraculous... Everyone in the Primordial Wilderness who had tasted Water-Fire Brew said it was good.
Hearing this, Tong Tian took out a Pure Vase. "Uh... there's only one bottle left. Take it for now. Drink slowly. Once you've nearly finished this bottle, I'll have Water-Fire send more over to you."
Yun Ting nodded. "Fellow Daoist Taiyi, shall we go to the Sun Star for a drink together? I haven't tried the Sun Star's specialty, the Fusang Fruit, yet."
Taiyi burst into laughter. "Fine, let's go together. This time, I'll let you eat your fill."
And so, Yun Ting followed Di Jun and Taiyi back to the Sun Star. Watching Yun Ting leave with Di Jun and Taiyi, Tong Tian muttered, "Why do I keep feeling that this brat Yun Ting isn't going to the Sun Star just to eat those two Fusang Fruits? He definitely has some other purpose."
Laozi stroked his beard. "Naturally... Third Brother, don't bother thinking about it. Though you've lived for several hundred Yuan Hui, when it comes to intelligence... you're only a little better than the witch race. If you can't figure it out, don't overthink it."
Yuanshi hurriedly added, "Big Brother, that's where you're wrong. Mm, when it comes to using his brain, Third Brother has at least opened six of his seven apertures. You can't look down on him."
Tong Tian chuckled. "Big Brother, look, even Second Brother says I've opened six of my seven apertures..." Before he could finish, his face darkened. "You're the one who doesn't understand a single aperture! What kind of Second Brother acts like that? I..."
"Alright, enough. What are you going on about? The teacher has already left; it seems rather pointless for us to return to Mount Kunlun just like this. How about we beat Zhunti up before we go? Zhunti dared to falsely accuse Yun Ting today; tomorrow, he might dare to secretly abduct him to Mount Sumeru and convert him. Let's teach him a lesson together." Seeing that Tong Tian was unhappy, Yuanshi hurriedly patted his shoulder and coaxed him.
