"Daoist Taiping, is it really all right for us to barge in like this?"
In the dim inner courtyard of Cloud Pill Palace, Mo Qingzhu followed Immortal Remains Old Daoist. After looking around, he asked Xu Taiping worriedly through voice transmission.
Keeping close behind Immortal Remains Old Daoist, Xu Taiping replied inwardly:
"Don't worry. Even if there's something wrong with Immortal Remains Old Daoist, I have a way to escape."
Even setting aside his other lifesaving measures, the Tai Bai Eclipse Power he had just refined was enough to handle the situation at hand.
More importantly.
Xu Taiping had intended to come here to retrieve the ancient mirror left behind by the Ancient Heavenly Venerable in the first place.
After hearing Xu Taiping's voice transmission, the wariness and tension on Mo Qingzhu's face eased considerably.
Just then, Immortal Remains Old Daoist suddenly stopped, turned toward Xu Taiping and the others, and said:
"Everyone, this is the place the Queen Mother instructed this old man to bring you to in her Jade Decree."
As he spoke, he pointed to the plaque above the Main Hall ahead and continued:
"Pill Fire Hall."
Hearing this, all three stopped, their faces full of confusion.
After glancing at the plaque, Xu Taiping suddenly asked curiously:
"Did the Jade Decree explain why we were to be brought to this treasured hall?"
Immortal Remains Old Daoist shook his head.
"This old man never saw the Jade Decree in person. The Star Lord who oversees the Three Terraces and Five Mansions relayed its instructions to us."
He hesitated before continuing:
"We were only told that once you three arrived, the evil calamity could be dispelled, and we Immortal Remains could finally find peace."
Xu Taiping asked in great surprise:
"The Queen Mother actually foresaw what would happen today?"
