Great Luo Heaven, Eight Scenic Palace!
"Haha, good, good, good!"
At that moment, Laozi laughed heartily, repeating "good" three times.
It was clear how delighted he was.
Xuandu, however, stood beside him without much excitement on his face.
"Master, this time..."
"Can the Dao Ancestor truly take down Gu Changqing?"
Xuandu did not hold out much hope.

At the sight of Hongjun descending, the Twelve Golden Immortals' faces lit up with joy.
"Haha,
