Once they reached their own doorstep, Immortal Lord Lingxiang and the other two relaxed a little. They exchanged glances and communicated secretly through voice transmissions.
"Liujing, Senior Xingfeng, I'll report to the ancestor. Keep this Demon Fiend steady for now. Whatever you do, don't let him stir up wind and waves inside the sect."
Immortal Lord Lingxiang gave his instructions.
Immortal Lord Liujing and Immortal Lord Xingfeng nodded.
Although they were now at their own sect gates, with two Great Immortal Lord ancestors presiding within, Zhang Yuan had paid no heed to their presence when he infiltrated the sect before. He had simply done whatever he pleased, without a trace of fear. Now that he was stronger than before, he was surely even bolder.
After a brief exchange, they made their arrangements.
Immortal Lord Lingxiang stepped off the Magic Ship and waved away the invisible defensive formation outside the Mysterious Court, allowing the ship to pass through and enter. He then nodded and flew toward Sky Mountain using Skyflight.
Zhang Yuan's brows furrowed slightly.
Immortal Lord Liujing stepped forward at just the right moment and explained, "Well... Fellow Daoist Zhang, the Great Immortal Lords attend to countless affairs each day. Lingxiang has gone ahead to give the ancestor a brief report. Our Mysterious Court could be considered a grotto-heaven blessed land within the Mountain-Sea Profound Yellow Realm. Why not take a stroll through the mountains with me?"
"Hmm... all right, but don't waste too much time. Otherwise, even with a Great Immortal Lord's invitation, I'll have to leave first," Zhang Yuan said.
"Of course. We certainly won't take up too much of your time."
Immortal Lord Liujing's gaze flickered. Not daring to look Zhang Yuan in the eyes, she hastily agreed.
It was not that Immortal Lord Liujing was lying.
