Xu Yeming's complaints were not wrong; he didn't have much of an interest in protecting the Chaos Realm.
For Xu Yeming, his only goal used to be to become strong enough to avenge his parents.
Now... well, the only additional thing is the obligation to repay the master's kindness.
Before they left, their master told them that if they could obtain any information about the Six Realms, they should do so as much as possible while ensuring their safety.
As a guardian of the Chaos Realm who has survived for so many years, he must know a great deal.
That's why Xu Yeming made the boastful claim that his master might be able to save the Cangxuan Guardian Beast's life.
After hearing this, Ye Qiubai understood Xu Yeming's intention.
After a moment's thought, he nodded and said, "It can indeed be done."
Hearing what the two said.
Both the Black Lord and Dean Cangxuan contracted sharply.
Dean Cangxuan exclaimed loudly, "Is it really possible? Although the Black Lord has many hidden ailments, the reason he is dying now is because his lifespan has reached its limit!"
"This isn't the kind of lifespan available to those at a low cultivation level. Black Lord can't rely on those pills to forcibly prolong their life."
The Black Lord chuckled helplessly, "Little fellow, there's no one in the entire Six Realms who can forcibly prolong my life. If you really want to refuse to protect the Chaos Realm, you don't need to try to fob me off with such hopeful words."
That brings us to this.
The Black Lord smiled as well, "Having lived for so many years, although I am still somewhat reluctant to part with it, I have no other attachments besides this legacy."
Xu Yeming scoffed, "If Master happens to have a solution, I hope you can still keep your mouth shut."
The Black Lord smiled but didn't speak. His heavy eyelids suddenly closed, as if even keeping his eyes open was an exhausting task.
Dean Cangxuan then approached, his expression serious, and asked, "Young friend Xu, does your master truly have a solution?"
Ye Qiubai, standing to the side, said with a smile, "Senior, if even Master can't help, then I think Black Lord truly has no one who can save him."
"No matter what, the result can't get any worse, right?"
Hearing this, Dean Cangxuan felt there was some truth to it, so he nodded, but still said with concern, "But... if your master comes here..."
They seemed to have sensed Dean Cangxuan's doubts.
Before Xu Yeming and Ye Qiubai could speak...
The Black Lord then said, "Someone who could devise such an unprecedented method of physique cultivation wouldn't be trying to steal my inheritance. Let him come over; I also want to see what kind of extraordinary person possesses such abilities."
After all, given Xu Yeming's physique, it's unlikely he could come up with a cultivation method in a short time.
So Xu Yeming took out the sound transmission jade pendant.
"Master, there's something I think will require your personal attention."
Lu Changsheng's helpless voice came through. "No, how long have we been gone? And we've already caused trouble?"
" Xu Yeming, I remember you're not the kind of person who likes to cause trouble, are you?"
Xu Yeming felt helpless after hearing this; there were too many things to complain about, but he still dared not criticize his own master.
Seeing Xu Yeming's helpless expression, Ye Qiubai was about to step forward to explain on Junior Brother Xu.
But then Lu Changsheng's voice came again, "You brat, you're not with your senior brother, are you?"
Ye Qiubai: "..."
Suddenly, he felt a sharp knife plunge directly into his heart.
"So this is how you, Master, see me, my senior brother..."
"Isn't that right?" Lu Changsheng said irritably, "Alright, tell me what it is."
So, Xu Yeming explained the whole story.
I originally thought Lu Changsheng would agree.
But Lu Changsheng refused without even thinking, saying, "I'm sorry to bother you."
Xu Yeming: "???"
"Isn't this a great opportunity to gather intelligence?"
Lu Changsheng said irritably, "You already said you're the guardian of the Chaos Realm, and you've existed for so many years. If we get involved, it'll implicate a whole host of karmic consequences."
"We don't even know what this guardian knows, yet we're already getting involved in such a huge karmic conflict. This isn't a worthwhile deal."
Xu Yeming scratched his head and nodded, saying, "That does make some sense."
Dean Cangxuan was standing nearby, couldn't help but darken his face when he heard the conversation between the master and disciple.
This sounds... a bit far-fetched, doesn't it?
And he doesn't even want to be associated with the Black Lord? There are countless people in this Chaos Realm who want to be associated with the Black Lord but don't even have the qualifications, yet this person regards it as dross.
The Cangxuan Guardian Beast standing to the side didn't seem to care.
Regardless of whether the other party can save his life, even if they can, they have no obligation to expend so much effort to treat him.
This is a matter of mutual consent.
It is one's right not to want to, but a matter of courtesy to do so.
"Alright, while you're out there, remember to keep an eye out for the name ' Nüwa, ' and report back to me immediately if you get any news about it!"
Just as Lu Changsheng was about to cut off the telepathic transmission after saying that,
The Black Lord suddenly opened his eyes, his voice weak yet resolute, "Does Your Excellency know Nüwa?"
As soon as he finished speaking...
For a moment, Xu Yeming and Ye Qiubai exchanged a glance, and the voice from the jade pendant disappeared, as if they had both fallen into silence.
Before long, the transmission of sound through the jade pendant was cut off by the other party.
Dean Cangxuan and the Black Lord were both taken aback.
What's going on?
Why was it suddenly cut off?
Are they coming or not?
Dean Cangxuan couldn't help but ask, "Young friend Xu, who exactly is your master?"
Xu Yeming didn't react for a moment.
After all, he hadn't spent much time with Lu Changsheng and didn't yet understand his master's temperament.
Ye Qiubai, standing to the side, smiled and said, "Don't worry, Master should be on his way."
On their way here?
Dean Cangxuan said blankly, "But... how does he know where this place is? And the aura here can't be sensed from the outside! He came here through a spatial teleportation array. Should we have your master wait for me at the Cangxuan Academy?"
Ye Qiubai smiled and shook his head, saying, "No need, Master will definitely be able to find this place."
Even the Black Lord couldn't help but say, "Let him go and receive it. Without the spatial teleportation of Cangxuan Peak, even a Realm God wouldn't be able to find this place easily."
But.
Right after they finished saying those words.
The sound transmission came from the jade pendant again.
All that was heard was Lu Changsheng asking, "Ask that Cangxuan Guardian Beast to open the door, or should I break down the barrier of this space before coming in?"
Upon hearing these words...
The Black Lord suddenly lifted his eyelids, his eyes filled with horror.
Dean Cangxuan also suddenly looked up at the sky.
There, beyond an invisible barrier, stood a man in white, his face full of resentment, a wooden sword already gripped in his hand...
