"Long time no see, Daoist Zhong Kui." Saine nodded to Zhong Kui, whose thick black beard was especially striking, then looked behind him.
Besides the two judges, there were also some Immortal Domain-specific beings following behind them, such as Ox-Head and Horse-Face, Black and White Impermanence, and others from the Reincarnation Underworld.
Saine spotted Mountain-Moving Taoist among them.
Dressed in the Reincarnation Underworld's distinctive gray-black Taoist robes, Mountain-Moving Taoist had clearly been completely "absorbed" by the Underworld.
There was no need to mention the minor frictions of the past.
At the very least, the Mountain-Moving Taoist before him had once assisted Saine in several wars, including those in the Wild Star Territory.
Mountain-Moving Taoist probably had never expected that the Wizard Civilization powerhouse he had once targeted had now become a Saint-Level Expert.
Noticing that Saine was looking his way as well, Mountain-Moving Taoist forced out a stiff, awkward smile.
The Wizard Civilization War had indeed greatly benefited the growth of these Immortal Domain Witch Clan members.
Take Mountain-Moving Taoist as an example. Back then, he had merely been an ordinary Level-6 Mid-Stage cultivator.
But now, he had reached the Level-6 Late Stage, what the Immortal Domain commonly called the "Great Luo Golden Immortal Great Perfection."
His next step would likely be to challenge the Quasi-Saint realm.
"In recent years, our Reincarnation Underworld has been operating at full capacity."
"The Ten Yama Kings have all been occupied with official duties. Even Houtu Niangniang must remain stationed at the Underworld's core and cannot come to receive you two."
"I presume Saine Master is heading for the Netherworld Blood Sea?"
"I can lead the way from here on." Zhong Kui said to Saine.
After glancing toward the mysterious direction where the Reincarnation Underworld lay, Saine nodded. "Then I'll trouble Daoist Zhong Kui."
