Outside, Secretary Zhou tiptoed and quietly entered.
He had brought along a huge pile of spirit items.
"Minister Wang, these are some floral spirits that help with spirit, as well as some spirit pellets that I asked the Ten Thousand Swords Sect for spirit recovery." Secretary Zhou placed the many spirit items in front of Wang Hou.
Wang Hou took out three elixirs and swallowed them. As for the other "spirits of nature", he didn't touch them. He smiled weakly and said, "I know my own situation. These spirits of nature have no effect on me."
He had cultivated his Martial Yuan Spirit.
Forcefully activating the Star Map had severely damaged his spirit and Yuan Spirit. Though his foundations were not damaged, it was not a light injury.
After taking the spirit pellets, Wang Hou's feebleness improved a little. Directing his Martial Yuan Spirit to sense his own body, he said, "Don't worry, it's just my Martial Yuan Spirit that's injured. I'll recover in a month if I rest, but I'll have to trouble you with the MAD's chores."
With that …
He looked up at the window in the distance.
A sea of stars appeared in his eyes.
And yet, unlike before, the sea of stars quickly crumbled the moment it appeared. Wang Hou's body swayed, his face paling even more.
"Minister Wang!"
Secretary Zhou quickly went up to support Wang Hou, who flashed a pained smile. "I'm fine."
Even as he spoke, he sighed. "I feel a little uneasy, but now that my spirit and Yuan Spirit are injured, I can't watch the stars. There's no telling if there are other elites eyeing Earth …"
…
Wang Hou did not sense the immortals' arrival, just as Jiang He did not sense it.
After all, the immortals did not descend through outer space, but directly teleported to Earth through a portal on a withered planet.
The portal on that planet had been set up by a True Immortal over two thousand years ago, and it was still there and undamaged.
Earth.
Mount Kunlun.
In a valley four hundred kilometers east of the Taixu Sect's mountain archway.
Ooom!
A blinding radiance shone, and soon, many figures appeared in the valley.
One of the True Immortals exclaimed in delight, "The cave abode I left here all those years ago is still here … eh?"
The sound of joy turned into shock as he cried out involuntarily, "Wait a minute … someone entered my dwelling and took away the cauldron of Spirit Pills I left here, but why wasn't the formation outside the dwelling destroyed?"
This Perfected Immortal was wearing a Daoist robe and had a goatee. He looked like a middle-aged Daoist.
He hadn't been back for more than two thousand years, so he decided to revisit his old haunt. Originally, he wanted to reminisce about the past, but in the end, the tables and chairs were all gone.
The middle-aged Daoist pointed at a corner of the cave abode and trembled in anger. "There should be a Thousand Year Frost Jade Bed here. My late Daoist companion and I went to the bottom of the East Sea to dig up the Frost Jade. We designed and built it together …"
"Where is my Thousand Year Cold Jade Bed?"
The middle-aged Daoist trembled, but he suddenly realized …
The Night Illumination Pearls hanging on the ceiling of the cave were all gone.
And at the top of the cave, there was a line of words —
"Wang Hou was here."
"Damn it!"
The middle-aged Daoist roared in rage, gritting his teeth. "Wang Hou … Wang Hou … who is this person? You were able to enter this old man's Immortal's Cave and take away the spirit pills I left behind. This is your good fortune. You can take away my Millennium Cold Jade Bed, the furniture, the flooring, and the luminous pearls used for lighting. What are you going to do with it? "
In a corner.
Many immortals were holding back their laughter.
But on second thought …
That was too much!
You've already benefited from him, so why did you have to tear down his home?
The middle-aged Daoist waved his hand and activated the formation outside the cave abode.
The valley hidden within the formation appeared, and a group of immortals flew out.
Iron Crutch Li, the leader of the Eight Immortals, called out loudly, "Fellow Daoists, do not simply release your aura. There are too many mortals on the homeworld now, and a ripple of your aura could hurt them."
His immortal will swept out and found the Taixu Sect over four hundred miles away.
In the Taixu Sect, the Golden Immortal who had returned promptly opened his eyes.
Just now, he had sensed an obscure immortal will sweeping out. Surprised, he extended his divine mind and promptly found the many Golden Immortals, True Immortals, and Heavenly Immortals who had returned.
"Is that … the Pure Yang Immortal Swordsman?"
He did not recognize the Eight Immortals or the other Golden Immortals, but he recognized Lü Dongbin. He promptly took to the air, communicating with the Taixu Sect disciples through his immortal will while he himself flew over four hundred miles away.
Whoosh!
Immortal light descended.
The Taixu Sect's Golden Immortal offered a fist-palm salute and said, "Greetings, Pure Yang Immortal Swordsman. Greetings, fellow Daoists."
A relaxed smile appeared on his face as he said, "We've received information that the legion of the Hundred Races Alliance is gathering. We were just worried that we would not be able to stop them, but we did not expect that you would arrive so soon … if that's the case, the homeworld is safe."
The Taixu Sect's Golden Immortal was aware that Jiang He had headed to the Sky Demon Star to ambush the Hundred Races Alliance.
But whether he succeeded …
He was not sure.
Jiang He would not tell him of his own accord. Moreover, the Ten Thousand Swords Daoist of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect had promptly gathered the Ten Thousand Swords Sect's disciples upon his return and sealed their mountain arches …
After all, they had gained a lot.
They had to divide the spoils.
They had to improve the abilities of their disciples as soon as possible so that they would not lose to the other sects in the competition for Dao preaching on the homeworld.
Yes.
According to the Ten Thousand Swords Daoist …
As long as the Ten Thousand Swords Sect could develop, he would be able to make a joke of the treasures he plundered. Moreover, with Wang Hou's unstinting support, the other sects would not be a match for him even if they banded together.
Naturally …
The Ten Thousand Swords Daoist would not spread word that Jiang He had succeeded in ambushing the legion of the Hundred Races Alliance.
In fact, he had been sneaking back to his sect, and no one knew about it.
That was why the Golden Immortals of the various factions on Earth only knew that Jiang He had impulsively left for outer space, and that Wang Hou and the Ten Thousand Swords Daoist had gone to reinforce him, their fates unknown.
"So, it's the True Habitant of Taixu!"
Lü Dongbin immediately recognized the True Habitant of Taixu's title after a glance at the Taixu Sect's Golden Immortal, and promptly smiled. "It has been some time since you returned to the homeworld, and you should be aware of the situation here. I wonder if you could discuss the current situation with us?"
The True Habitant of Taixu mused to himself for a while before flashing a pained smile. "You might not know this, Brothers, but a demonic prodigy has been born on the homeworld!"
"No, not one, but two!"
The True Habitant of Taixu then spoke about how Jiang He had ambushed and killed the Golden Immortals and True Immortals of the various sects in outer space, as well as how Wang Hou had created martial arts that resonated with Earth's Dao and was blessed by Fortune Qi.
The immortals were all stunned.
One of the Golden Immortals said angrily, "That brat is truly insolent. The immortals who have returned to the homeworld are all here to protect it, and yet he has killed several Golden Immortals, many True Immortals, and Heavenly Immortals. Who would stop the legion of the Hundred Races Alliance once they arrive?"
Another Golden Immortal said that it did not matter.
It was a personal grudge, and they were not allowed to fight to the death?
"Wang Hou?"
In the crowd, the middle-aged Daoist's expression was uncertain. He clenched his teeth and finally … suppressed the anger in his heart. Then, he laughed and said, "This Marquis is fated with me. He once obtained the cave abode's spirit pill that I left behind."
Someone could not help laughing.
That's not what you said just now …
"Oh, right!"
The True Habitant of Taixu then said, "A few days ago, Wang Hou had gathered everyone, saying that he wanted to rescue Jiang He …"
He then told everyone about Jiang He's ambushing of the legion of the Hundred Races Alliance in outer space, and how Wang Hou and the Ten Thousand Swords Daoist had gone to rescue him. Lü Dongbin's expression changed and he growled, "Nonsense! Nonsense! How powerful is the legion of the Hundred Races Alliance? Is Jiang He trying to get himself killed? "
He cursed a little.
Inwardly, however, Lü Dongbin became even more curious about Jiang He.
In fact, it was not just Lü Dongbin — every immortal present was curious about Jiang He.
That was when one of the Golden Immortals frowned and asked, "Brother Taixu, where are the many elites of the Green Hill Foxes? They came ahead of time, and should have reached the homeworld three days ago. "
