Pan Sea, Meng Continent.
Greater Yin energy drifted and settled like frost and snow. The Mysterious Palace stood amid unfurling white radiance, while beyond this Greater Yin secret realm, the light of divine abilities approached, Jia Wood like a dragon, purple qi like a luan.
"This is Lord Wei's temporary palace. Fellow Daoist, you may go in to meet her."
The young man in gold-and-jade-green ritual robes smiled as he led the way, then stopped punctiliously outside the moonlight without entering. Behind him followed a long-bearded man in purple robes.
Guan Quan's aura was slightly dispersed, but he had already attained the cultivation of four divine abilities. Over the years, he had repeatedly sent people to contact Eastern Azure, and at last everything had been arranged.
He also cradled a purple jade casket in his arms. Cold air seeped faintly from it, seemingly responding to the summons of the White Moon Mysterious Palace.
The Louguan Dao Lord's gaze shifted slightly toward the Jia Wood Purple Mansion cultivator beside him, and he asked with some puzzlement:
"Thank you for leading the way, Fellow Daoist Huan Biao. But now that you have joined Eastern Azure, what will become of Autumn Clarity?"
He was on good terms with an abbey in Great Scarlet, and naturally knew that Autumn Clarity had occupied someone else's ancestral land. Conflict would come sooner or later, and this was a good opportunity to see where True Person Huan Biao stood.
"Li Fire burns fiercely and leaves no room for Wood Virtue. I am now the master of Longbiao Pavilion under the Eastern Azure Dao Lineage. Just call me Xiao Biao. The affairs of Autumn Clarity are long behind me."
True Person Huan Biao spoke solemnly, as though afraid the other man would drag him back into that connection.
