Meanwhile, with the Three Xiao Sisters.

Perhaps spurred on by what had happened to Qiongxiao, Bixiao now felt brimming with energy.

Especially when she thought of her own fated opportunity waiting for her in some unknown corner, she could barely conceal the excitement on her face.

But the Primordial World was simply too vast. Finding the opportunity that belonged to her in this immense world was no easy task.

After running into one dead end after another, Bixiao gradually grew much steadier.

Yet whenever she saw the Great Dao-level Cultivation Technique in Qiongxiao's hands, the envy in her eyes remained impossible to hide.

Still, no matter how envious she was, that opportunity belonged to Qiongxiao.

Not every cultivation technique suited them.

No matter how high the grade of Qiongxiao's technique, cultivating it when it did not suit them would ultimately damage their own Dao foundations.

After searching for so long, Bixiao's initial confidence gradually gave way to disappointment.

"I wonder where Senior Brother Lu left my opportunity."

"We've searched the Primordial World for so long, but we still haven't found it."

Hearing Bixiao's words, Qiongxiao and Yunxiao could not help comforting her.

"Don't lose heart. How could a fated opportunity be found in a mere moment?"

"Besides, Senior Brother Lu has always doted on you the most. How could he not leave an opportunity for you?"

"We simply weren't fated to encounter it today."

Bixiao nodded and was just about to say something when a streak of golden light suddenly flashed over the three sisters' heads.

At the sight of that golden light, all three sisters' expressions changed!

"Was that Jinguang Xian?"

Jinguang Xian was one of the Interception Sect's Seven Attendant Immortals.

Yet today, he was in a desperate hurry, and even his aura had weakened considerably.

Before the Three Xiao Sisters could work out what was happening, several more streaks of light arrived.

As they watched those streaks of light, the sisters' expressions turned cold.

Meanwhile, Jinguang Xian's face was filled with despair.

He had never imagined that these Chan Sect disciples would set their sights on him the moment he left Golden Ao Island.

After being hunted by these Chan Sect members for so long, Jinguang Xian was already a spent arrow at the end of its flight.

The one leading the pursuit was none other than Daoist Cihang.

Behind Daoist Cihang stood Yu Ding Zhenren and Taiyi Zhenren.

Seeing the people before him, Jinguang Xian's expression shifted. But the next instant, he spat viciously in one direction!

"Dingguang Xian, are you truly going to be a traitor?"

A figure swiftly materialized in the void.

That figure was none other than Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal.

Had Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal not revealed his whereabouts, Jinguang Xian would never have been driven into such dire straits by Cihang and the others.

Facing Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal, Jinguang Xian wished he could devour his flesh raw!

But before Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal could reply, Daoist Cihang flicked the whisk in her hand.

"Jinguang Xian, your vile nature truly is beyond redemption."

"If you submit to me today and become my mount, I could still spare your life!"

Jinguang Xian spat out a mouthful of bloody spittle!

"In your dreams!"

"How could a Jie Sect Disciple like me submit to your Chan Sect!"

They even wanted to capture him and make him a mount.

Dream on!

No sooner had Jinguang Xian spoken than Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal chuckled softly.

"The Interception Sect disbanded long ago. We would do better to abandon the darkness and turn toward the light now. Stop clinging so stubbornly to your delusions, my dear senior brother."

Hearing Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal's words, Jinguang Xian glared so fiercely that his eyes nearly split!

"Bullshit!"

"Even if the Interception Sect has disbanded, I will never submit to the likes of you!"

"If you want to kill me or carve me apart, come and try!"

Meanwhile, the Three Xiao Sisters rushed over with icy expressions.

Every Jie Sect Disciple carried a distinctive aura.

Although the Interception Sect had now disbanded and its disciples were scattered throughout the Primordial World, they could still sense one another's auras.

Moreover, they thoroughly disliked the scent of those Chan Sect members.

Now that someone was tormenting a fellow Jie Sect Disciple before their eyes, how could the Three Xiao Sisters stand idly by?

In truth, Jinguang Xian really could not hold out any longer.

With all four opponents attacking together, no matter how strong Jinguang Xian was, they would overpower him sooner or later.

"Long-Eared Immortal, if Teacher learns what happened today, he will never let you off!"

A glint merely flashed through Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal's eyes.

"Even if Teacher came, he could do nothing about today's events. Besides, I wasn't the one who disbanded the Interception Sect."

Hearing Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal's words, Jinguang Xian flew into a rage.

He let out a roar and was about to attack.

But as though he had anticipated it, Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal ducked straight behind Daoist Cihang and the others.

"My three senior fellow disciples, since he refuses to submit, why not simply kill him?"

Although Daoist Cihang and the others looked disdainful, they still took dealing with a Jie Sect Disciple very seriously.

Though the Jie Sect Disciples' innate origins were inferior to theirs, many were vicious fiends. They had to exercise some caution.

Seeing all three attack together, Jinguang Xian closed his eyes with righteous defiance!

"Come at me, then!"

At that very moment, three streaks of light landed directly in front of Jinguang Xian.

Qiongxiao single-handedly dispersed the attacks from Daoist Cihang and the others.

Bixiao, meanwhile, freed her hands to help Jinguang Xian up from the ground.

"Jinguang Xian, how did you end up in such a state?"

Hearing Bixiao's voice, surprise rose in Jinguang Xian's eyes, only to be followed immediately by fury!

"Senior Sister, Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal betrayed us!"

"If not for him, the Chan Sect would never have learned my whereabouts, much less hunted me down like this!"

At his words, Qiongxiao immediately turned an icy gaze on Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal opposite her.

Yunxiao and Bixiao also glared at him in anger.

Yet Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal showed no shame whatsoever. He even took on an air of righteousness.

"Senior Sisters, the Interception Sect has disbanded now. Rather than wandering out in the world, wouldn't joining the Chan Sect be a happy turn of events?"

"With your innate origins, if you three joined the Chan Sect, your standing would likely be even higher than mine..."

As they listened to Long-Eared Dingguang Immortal, the Three Xiao Sisters' expressions grew colder still.

By contrast, Daoist Cihang and her two companions looked expectant.

If this Long-Eared Rabbit could really fool the Three Xiao Sisters into joining them, he would have been put to good use.

When the time came, even if the Long-Eared Rabbit could not be accepted as a disciple, he could still serve as their mount.

As for the Three Xiao Sisters, however, their innate origins were extraordinary. Once they entered the Chan Sect, it would only be a matter of time before they stood as equals.

Daoist Cihang and the others were more than happy to see anything that could strengthen their Chan Sect succeed.

But just then, Qiongxiao sneered.

"Is that so?"

"A mere Chan Sect dares dream of having us sisters join?"

"As for you, you're nothing but a long-eared rabbit. Without Teacher, would you ever have become what you are today?"

"Since you dare turn on a fellow disciple and try to kill him, I might as well purge the sect on Teacher's behalf today!"
