With a cold snort, Ao Sheng swept his sleeve and left. Yuan Chu and the others also departed. They would not attack openly in Pan King City.
"He's still the same as ever."
Pan King spoke as he watched Ao Sheng leave.
"Yes. Not even the slightest thing has changed over the ages. He always likes to hold everything in his grasp and has absolute faith in his own divinations. Yet he simply cannot understand that some things are beyond even an Immortal King's ability to divine. When I divined the Nine Heavens back then, all I saw was devastation, but reality turned out to be the complete opposite."
The Lord of the Forbidden Zone spoke.
"I've prepared some excellent immortal wine. Why don't we drink our fill?"
"Of course. I could miss anything else, but never your wine, fellow Daoist."
A long time later, Meng Tianzheng and the Lord of the Forbidden Zone returned to the Small Secret Realm.
"Our journey to the Immortal Domain may have reached its end. I never expected the one behind Shi Hao to be entangled in such immense karma. It seems we need to return to the Nine Heavens as soon as possible. There's no telling what tricks they might play while we're in the Immortal Domain."
Meng Tianzheng spoke. The Immortal Domain was someone else's territory, after all. Unless the Heavenly Emperor came in person, even he had no certainty.
"Heh, your concern has clouded your judgment, fellow Daoist. All of this may well be part of the Heavenly Emperor Wusheng's plan. We must eventually have dealings with the Immortal Domain, but some people here still need to be purged. And we need a reason, don't we? This happens to be a very good one."
The Lord of the Forbidden Zone spoke.
