"Eldest Brother, what did the two seniors, Heavenly Lord Xuanbei and Daoist Fengzhu, finally say?"
On the way to the Teleportation Array in the Yellow Springs Ruins, following Ghost King Qin Ming and the others, Ping'an quietly asked Xu Taiping.
He had just learned through Ninth Madam that Heavenly Lord Xuanbei and Daoist Fengzhu still wanted Xu Taiping to visit that Secret Realm on their behalf.
They were even willing to offer additional terms.
His face expressionless, Xu Taiping replied inwardly:
"Ninth Madam said they're still considering it and asked us to wait a little longer."
Ping'an smiled and sent a Voice Transmission inwardly:
"Those two old men are well versed in the Heavenly Secret Divination Art. Naturally, they can also work out what treasures or fortuitous opportunities we urgently need. Letting them think it over some more is a good thing."
"Perhaps the terms they eventually offer will be something even we haven't thought of."
Xu Taiping nodded lightly in full agreement.
And this was why Ninth Madam had told Xu Taiping to ask Heavenly Lord Xuanbei and Daoist Fengzhu to think of the terms themselves.
It was equivalent to having the two divine a fortuitous opportunity for the three of them.
While the two were secretly exchanging Voice Transmissions, Old Daoist Huang suddenly frowned, then covered one eye with his hand and sent Xu Taiping a Voice Transmission as though nothing were amiss:
"Xu Taiping, my eyelid keeps twitching. I'm afraid something ominous may happen."
Xu Taiping's heart tightened at those words.
For a Qi-Reading Practitioner of Old Daoist Huang's cultivation, every abnormality in his body was bound to be connected to his fortune.
This was also why Old Daoist Huang was so uneasy.
"Lord Ghost King, how much longer until we reach the teleportation site?"
Xu Taiping
