Zhang Huizhi's expression shifted slightly. He bowed to the Yu Lord.
"Thank you for clearing that up."
The Yu Lord nodded.
"I'll accept your bow.
"I'll arrange for my people to design the newest research institute and Training Room for you. I'll also find some research findings unique to the Immortal Ancestors of Yu Province to answer your questions.
"You're already a Divine Venerable in the Formation Path, so there's no need for me to concern myself with that.
"As for the True Intent Path, my Yu Clan has already prepared the finest True Soul Training Room for you.
"The only thing you're missing is the Elemental Path."
As the Yu Lord spoke, Zhang Huizhi was about to reply when his expression changed slightly. He looked toward a certain spot.
"Chen Yan, it's been a long time."
A woman's ethereal voice rang out.
Zhang Huizhi looked over. Amid the billowing clouds, a woman in an immortal skirt drifted lightly toward him. Her hem was flecked with fragments of cloudlight, and each step seemed to land on soft cotton as she slowly descended from the clouds.
The next moment, she was already standing before Zhang Huizhi.
"Lord of Elements," Zhang Huizhi said calmly.
The newcomer was none other than the Immortal Skirt Woman from the Ancient Battle Palace.
Zhang Huizhi pondered that if the Lord of Elements had emerged, then Lord Xia, who had been inside the Ancient Battle Palace, had probably come out as well.
The Immortal Skirt Woman pursed her lips as she looked at Zhang Huizhi.
"I don't think I've ever really offended you, yet you're still so cold to me."
The Lord of Elements seemed to recall something, then added, "Having you fight Lu Jianxia wasn't my demand. It was a rule of the Ancient Battle Palace."
