Qi Zi'Fan and Ji Chutong had no idea what the Grand Elder meant, but they trusted him, so they did not suspect anything and followed him.
Before long, the Grand Elder brought the two of them to a secret chamber inside the Heavenly Palace. Not even the other powerful Golden Immortals had followed.
"Your strength is indeed... Mm, indeed not bad. Going out at this point in time should not be too dangerous, as long as you are a little careful."
As the Grand Elder said this, his old face trembled faintly.
There was no helping it. It was too awkward!
Utterly awkward.
He could only hope that these two girls were still young, with low cultivation realms and poor judgment. Otherwise... that would truly be unbearably awkward.
"So, Grand Elder, you agree?" Qi Zi'Fan and Ji Chutong exchanged a glance, both revealing delight.
"I do agree, but I have not finished speaking."
Seeing how excited the two were, the Grand Elder could not help frowning. "Do not celebrate too soon, and even less should you get carried away."
"What this world lacks least is accidents. What it has no shortage of is reckless fools."
"A Profound Immortal might indeed be unable to do anything to you, but what if they possess some kind of treasure?"
Qi Zi'Fan raised her hand slightly. "Um... Grand Elder, I know it is impolite to interrupt you, but I still want to say this: even ordinary Acquired Spiritual Treasures pose no threat to us. As for Acquired Supreme Treasures or Innate Spiritual Treasures, they might not even be able to hurt me."
The Grand Elder froze. "???"
"Ahem, just take it as me bragging." Qi Zi'Fan thought for a moment, then added.
The Grand Elder: "..."
Were you toying with me?! He glared.
