Could It Be True!

"What is Junior Sister doing running off to the Welcoming Guest Hall? Didn't we say we'd go browse the gathering at the foot of the mountain together?"

Second Senior Brother He Han asked, full of confusion.

Li Daoxuan wasn't sure either.

"Maybe she's curious. The Five Sects Treasure Exchange Gathering officially starts today, and several Sect Leader seniors also took this opportunity to come. They are currently talking with Master in the Welcoming Guest Hall. Junior Sister usually doesn't have a chance to see such important figures, so naturally, she wants to get a good look," Li Daoxuan said with a smile.

He Han nodded in strong agreement.

After a while, the two finally arrived at the Welcoming Guest Hall. Sure enough, they saw Junior Sister squatting by the window, peeking inside furtively.

They exchanged a smile, then quietly walked up and gently patted her shoulder.

"Junior Sister—"

The sudden sound startled Lu Yaoyao. When she turned around and saw it was her two Senior Brothers, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, she quickly made a shushing gesture, immediately pulled their arms, and leaned closer to the window, looking inside.

"Eldest Brother, Second Senior Brother, who is that woman sitting on the far left at the top?" Lu Yaoyao asked curiously, pointing with her finger.

The two looked through the gap in the window and finally understood who Junior Sister was referring to.

It was a graceful middle-aged beautiful woman with a high nose bridge, red lips and white teeth, and skin as fair as snow, as if untouched by time.

Especially the smooth and delicate spot between her eyebrows, like white jade, adorned with a vibrant red dot, like a red plum blooming on snow, eye-catching and enchanting.

Even more striking was her silver hair mixed with a hint of green, piled high. The jade hairpin inserted in her hair added a sense of solemnity and elegance.

Li Daoxuan whispered, "She is the Sect Leader of the Azure Feather Immortal Sect, her Daoist title is Xuan You Immortal."

"Xuan You?" Lu Yaoyao murmured softly, a thoughtful look in her eyes.

Second Senior Brother He Han, who was beside her, noticed a faint layer of silver hair subtly showing beneath Lu Yaoyao's dark hair. Then he looked at the silver-green hair of Xuan You Immortal inside the hall, and his eyes suddenly widened, as if he had discovered some incredible secret.

He immediately sent a silent message to Eldest Brother.

Eldest Brother Li Daoxuan looked around, but quickly shook his head.

Perhaps it was just a coincidence. Master had said that when he was hunting sea beasts along the coast, there was a tornado there.

And Junior Sister fell from the sky, suffering a serious injury at the time. She must have been swept up by the hurricane.

How could she be related to the Sect Leader of the Azure Feather Immortal Sect?

But looking at Junior Sister's extremely conflicted expression, Li Daoxuan couldn't help but feel a hint of doubt.

He couldn't help but ask, "Junior Sister, do you... know her?"

Lu Yaoyao looked at the beautiful woman with a complex expression, her gaze somewhat distant: "I don't know. Perhaps she is just a stranger to me, or perhaps... she really is my relative."

Upon hearing this, both of them were filled with surprise.

This was a major discovery and must be reported to Master immediately.

If the daughter of the Azure Feather Immortal Sect's Sect Leader was the beloved disciple of the Taiqing Sect's Sect Leader, then the relationship between these two families would become the most solid alliance.

However, they had never heard that this Xuan You Immortal had a Daoist partner before?

Soon, Lu Yaoyao pulled the two of them and quietly left the Welcoming Guest Hall, saying with a serious expression, "Senior Brothers, I was just talking nonsense earlier, don't take it to heart. Let's hurry down the mountain."

The two nodded, but Li Daoxuan, with his hands behind his back, formed a hand seal. A miniature paper crane quietly flew out from his sleeve and headed towards the main hall behind them...

Inside the main hall at this moment, everyone was chatting and laughing, a scene of old friends reuniting after many years, full of warmth and joy.

But in reality, although these five sects were allied with each other, the competition in the dark was extremely fierce.

"It's been a long time, Immortal Xuan You has become even more radiant and moving," said Lei Wuji, the Sect Leader of the Golden Thunder Sect, with a full beard and a rough appearance, praising Immortal Xuan You in a loud voice.

Immortal Xuan You smiled and shook her head, "What radiance? Time spares no one. I'm no longer the same as I was back then."

Lei Wuji laughed heartily, "I think you're still the same as back then. Xuanji Zi, aren't you from Tianji Gate skilled in divination? Why don't you help the Immortal calculate where her destined one is now? Is he perhaps in this very hall?"

Lei Wuji looked at the Sect Leader of Tianji Gate sitting next to him and asked.

Xuanji Zi was wearing a white robe with the Eight Trigrams pattern printed on it, his long beard fluttering in the wind. At this moment, he smiled bitterly and waved his hand, "This kind of thing cannot be calculated, and there's no way to calculate it. If he were truly in the hall, then perhaps it could only be Brother Si Kong."

Everyone looked at Si Kong Yan, the Palace Master of the Azure Flame Dao Palace.

Si Kong Yan sat quietly. He was in his prime, and time had deposited a mature and steady charm on him.

His sword-like eyebrows slanted into his temples, and his facial features were distinct, as if carved by a knife and axe. Every line was just right, perfectly blending the vicissitudes of a middle-aged man with the handsomeness of a man.

A red robe was like a burning flame, passionate and flamboyant.

Everyone knew that Si Kong Yan had been pursuing Immortal Xuan You for many years and had not given up yet. However, the flowers were willing, but the flowing water was not.

At this moment, Si Kong Yan couldn't help but look at Immortal Xuan You, but she slightly turned her head away, pretending not to see him, which made him smile bitterly in helplessness.

Cao Zhengyang, the Sect Leader of Taiqing Sect, Si Kong Yan, the Palace Master of Azure Flame Dao Palace, Immortal Xuan You of Azure Feather Immortal Sect, Tianji Zi, the Sect Leader of Tianji Gate, and Lei Wuji, the Sect Leader of Golden Thunder Sect.

These were the giants of the five major sects.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Cao Zhengyang quickly changed the subject, guiding everyone to talk about other things.

But at this moment, a small crane talisman flew over. After hearing the voice inside, Cao Zhengyang's expression changed slightly, and he subconsciously looked at Immortal Xuan You.

Immortal Xuan You also sensed something and asked in confusion, "Brother Cao, is something wrong?"

Cao Zhengyang quickly waved his hand, "No, no, no. It's getting late. Our sect has already prepared fine wine and delicacies. Please move to the Jade Cuisine Hall, and we can eat and talk there."

"Then we'll trouble Brother Cao!"

"You're too kind, too kind. I just hope everyone doesn't mind."

"Please!"

"Please!"

Zhou Qing propped his chin and squatted beside Third Senior Brother's stall, watching him spitting and arguing with someone, feeling utterly bored.

In fact, just as Senior Sister Shi Zhen said, it was difficult to distinguish between the genuine and fake items at the various stalls; the vast majority were scams.

As Yan Xiaohu completed another transaction, Zhou Qing applauded, "Third Senior Brother, you have to treat us after you close the stall."

Yan Xiaohu narrowed his small eyes, his face full of pride, "That's a must. Oh, right, I didn't have time to ask earlier, what good stuff did you buy? Let this brother take a look."

Zhou Qing had no choice but to take out the half-broken bone.

Seeing this broken bone, Yan Xiaohu was stunned, somewhat disbelieving.

"Just this?"

"Just this!"

"How much did it cost?"

"Ten Low-Grade Spirit Stones."

"You, you, you... you really have money to burn. Ten Spirit Stones for this broken bone? If you want to drink bone marrow, go to the Fire Kitchen's back kitchen, there's plenty there." Yan Xiaohu looked like he was disappointed in Zhou Qing.

He was too wasteful. Even if it was for gaining experience, this wasn't the way to do it.

"Forget it, forget it, as long as you're happy. Anyway, it's your money, just spend it sparingly!"

Seeing Zhou Qing scratch his head and grin foolishly, Yan Xiaohu didn't want to scold him further and threw the bone over.

Zhou Qing didn't explain anything. He also didn't mention anything about Second Uncle transforming into the appearance of Third Senior Brother.

Saying more would only make his Senior Brother worry. Anyway, he already had a method for appraisal.

"Senior Brother Yan, Senior Brother Zhou, you're setting up a stall here!"

Just as Zhou Qing was feeling drowsy, a surprised voice rang out.
