Meanwhile.

After walking in the rain for a long time, Li Zhōujūn suddenly slapped his forehead and said, "Good heavens, I set up a formation for that weed but forgot to hide it. What if this formation attracts other demons or cultivators? Wouldn't that be harming it?"

Thinking this, Li Zhōujūn retraced his steps.

When he returned to the tree, the old man and the young man were no longer there, and the Spirit Gathering Formation on the weeds had already been hidden.

Seeing Li Zhōujūn arrive again, the weeds swayed their bodies as if they were happy.

"It seems the old man who was here earlier made the move," Li Zhōujūn mused.

"Cultivate well here," Li Zhōujūn instructed the weeds before getting up and heading towards Jiang City.

After all, he had already taken the other path, and there was nothing interesting to see after walking for a long time.

When Li Zhōujūn arrived at Jiang City.

The old man and the young man he had met under the tree earlier had arrived outside a mansion.

"Lu Wuhen, Yu Ziyue is here, aren't you coming out to greet me?" the old man said with a light laugh, looking at the mansion gate.

"Hahaha, Ziyue, I've finally been waiting for you." Just as Yu Ziyue finished speaking, an old man in luxurious robes walked out of the gate, laughing heartily.

When he saw Ashi, he was slightly stunned and asked, "Ziyue, have you taken a disciple?"

"Yes, this kid is Xiao Shi," Yu Ziyue said with a slight smile. "Ashi, quickly pay your respects to Uncle Lu..."

Yu Ziyue had originally intended for Xiao Shi to pay his respects to Grandpa Lu, but if he did, wouldn't Lu Wuhen be inexplicably one generation older than him?

"Xiao Shi pays his respects to Uncle Lu," Xiao Shi said, bowing to Lu Wuhen.

"Little Shi, there's no need to be so polite. Foundation Establishment at sixteen, tsk tsk, Ziyue, you've taken a good disciple. He has quite a bit of our old spirit, not even inferior to the top prodigies of the Dao Tian Sect," Lu Wuhen said with a smile.

Then, he sighed with emotion, "Thinking back to when you and I roamed the jianghu, we were both young and spirited. Now we're both white-haired. One has a family, and the other has taken a disciple. How things have changed."

"Indeed," Yu Ziyue also sighed. Suddenly, his gaze sharpened as he looked at Lu Wuhen's chest and said gravely, "Your injury..."

"It's nothing," Lu Wuhen smiled slightly. "I've lived long enough. I have no regrets seeing an old friend again before I die. However, before I die, I still want to see my dear granddaughter's illness and see her recover."

"Take me to see the little girl," Yu Ziyue said gravely.

The injury on Lu Wuhen's chest was an old ailment from when they were young and went to hunt down a Demonic Cultivator together. Lu Wuhen had taken a palm strike from the Demonic Cultivator for him.

Therefore, Yu Ziyue felt very distressed and only wanted to help his old friend fulfill his last wish before he passed away.

"Alright," Lu Wuhen nodded and led the master and disciple to a side room.

Opening the door, they saw a maiden lying on the bed, her eyes closed, as beautiful as a celestial being.

This maiden was Lu Wuhen's granddaughter, Lu Zhining.

Xiao Shi, being a young man, blushed upon seeing such a beautiful girl for the first time, but he quickly composed himself. After all, he and his master were here to save someone.

"The last time I saw the little girl, she was still swaddled. I never expected her to grow into such a graceful young lady in the blink of an eye," Yu Ziyue said.

Lu Wuhen gave a bitter smile. "This girl has a wild temper. After I'm gone, Ziyue, you'll have to help me look after her."

If you think this book is good, remember to add it to your bookshelf to avoid losing it next time.

"Naturally," Yu Ziyue said solemnly. He then opened and closed his dharma eye, quickly discerning the girl's condition.

"Ziyue, have you figured out what's wrong with my granddaughter?" Lu Wuhen asked.

"Hmm, the little girl went to the Void Immortal Cave Mansion earlier. Although she came out, she must have triggered a formation inside. Three of her souls have been left behind by a formation," Yu Ziyue said with a frown.

"As expected of you, Ziyue. You saw the girl's problem at a glance. But what can be done to save her three souls now?" Lu Wuhen asked, his face showing some anxiety. "If all else fails, I'll just risk going into the Void Immortal Cave Mansion. I'm already on my deathbed anyway."

"Absolutely not," Yu Ziyue said decisively. "I've heard of the Void Immortal Cave Mansion near Jiang City. It's a blessed land left by an ancient powerful being for Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment cultivators. If a Golden Core or higher cultivator enters, unless their cultivation is also at the Void Immortal level, they will perish."

"Then what should we do?" Lu Wuhen asked. He only had Early Soul Transformation cultivation, so he would likely perish the moment he stepped into the Void Immortal Cave Mansion.

"Although I only have Soul Transformation cultivation, I am also a fifth-grade Spirit Array Master. It shouldn't be a problem to retrieve the little girl's three souls," Yu Ziyue said proudly.

"That's good," Lu Wuhen said, finally relieved.

At the same time, Yu Ziyue made his move.

He bit his index finger and, in the next moment, began sketching a formation in the void.

It took a full hour before Yu Ziyue slowly withdrew his hand, his old face covered in sweat.

Seeing his master in such a state, Xiao Shi felt immense heartache.

"The formation is complete."

At this moment, Yu Ziyue looked at the red light floating in the air and said, "Next, I just need to place a strand of the little girl's hair into the formation to recall her three souls."

"Ziyue, your kindness is beyond words," Lu Wuhen cupped his fists towards Yu Ziyue.

Yu Ziyue quickly stopped him and said with a wry smile, "Wuhen, what are you doing? If you hadn't taken that palm strike for me back then, how could I still be standing here talking to you? This is what I should do. If you continue like this, don't blame me for turning hostile."

"Hahaha, I was being too polite," Lu Wuhen laughed heartily. Having such a close friend in life, he had no regrets.

Seeing this, Yu Ziyue also smiled.

But just as Yu Ziyue was preparing to proceed, a voice of an extremely majestic elder echoed from above the Lu Family: "Lu Wuhen, hand over the supreme treasure stolen from my Dynasty, and I shall spare your entire Lu Family."

"Void Immortal?"

Yu Ziyue felt the aura from above and immediately gasped, "Wuhen, what have you done?!"

"Cough, cough, my granddaughter wasn't waking up back then, and I heard that the Divine Feather Dynasty had the Sky Feather Pill which could bring the dead back to life. So, I stole the Sky Feather Pill they were showing off in the main hall. I thought I had done it flawlessly, but I didn't expect to be discovered," Lu Wuhen said with an embarrassed expression.

"You're truly amazing, to be able to do something like this right under the nose of a Void Immortal." Yu Ziyue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After all, Lu Wuhen said it so casually, but for a Soul Transformation cultivator to steal something from under the nose of the Divine Feather Dynasty's Void Immortal was incredibly difficult.

Then Yu Ziyue asked again, "Where is that Sky Feather Pill?"

"Of course, I gave it to the little girl to eat. Keeping it wouldn't bring back a second one, would it?" Lu Wuhen said with a wry smile.

"You've really caused a huge disaster this time. The Void Immortal chasing us is probably that mysterious Supreme Emperor of the Divine Feather Dynasty, Yuhua Ji," Yu Ziyue said helplessly.

"I'll take responsibility for my actions. I won't implicate you and Ashi," Lu Wuhen stated.

"Nonsense! We grew up together, sharing everything. We face hardships together. Come on, let's go meet this Supreme Emperor of the Divine Feather Dynasty together!" Yu Ziyue said decisively.

"Alright." Seeing Yu Ziyue's resolve, Lu Wuhen knew he couldn't stop him and could only agree. However, in his heart, he was determined not to implicate Yu Ziyue and his disciple.

Meanwhile, at the same time as the Divine Feather Dynasty's Void Immortal descended.

The citizens and cultivators throughout Jiang City were all forced to their knees by the terrifying aura.

Li Zhōujūn, who had recently arrived in Jiang City, stood in place, looking up at the Void Immortal's location with surprise. Then, two more elder figures ascended. One of them was the elder who had gifted him an umbrella.

If you find this book good, remember to add it to your bookshelf so you don't lose it next time.
