For the time being, Lu Xiaotian could get no useful information from the middle-aged man. He reached out and beckoned, withdrawing the Illusory Mirror before returning to Kapok Island.
When he returned to Kapok Island, the Purple-Robed Palace Master's carriage came riding the wind through the void, pulled by two Six-Hoofed Gale Steeds in the early Integrated Body stage, their hooves pounding as they charged forward. The graceful, beautiful woman seated atop it could be none other than the Purple-Robed Palace Master. Beside the carriage was an old acquaintance, the Blazing Fire Demon Falcon.
"The Palace Master returned even faster than expected." Lu Xiaotian was somewhat surprised to see her.
"Last time I went to Blood Nether Valley, I did run into some minor trouble. However, I only went to confirm some information and had no intention of venturing deep inside. This time, after making full preparations, I'll be setting out. For this trip to Blood Nether Valley, I still need several capable assistants. Fellow Daoist Xiang, would you be willing to lend me a hand?"
The Purple-Robed Palace Master said, "After the upheaval on Purple Flood Dragon Island, the Golden-Furred Flipping-Horned Bull Demon was severely wounded. It will probably be unable to recover its strength for several hundred years. At present, there aren't many people I can rely on."
"Have you found any leads regarding what I asked you to investigate?" Lu Xiaotian said. Since she had skipped over the matter of Purple Flood Dragon Island, the situation was presumably already under control, and there was no need for him to worry about it.
