Guo Lie stood firmly in front of the door and stared at Zhang Yan's eyes, saying in a low voice, "What is it?"
Zhang Yan smiled lightly and said, "Leaf Seal True Grass, I'm sure you've heard of it before."
Hearing this, Guo Lie's chest heaved violently and he said in disbelief, "You have this thing?"
The Leaf Seal True Grass was extremely precious. Once it appeared, it would be taken away by others. Even if one obtained it in the celestial market, they would sell it as soon as possible to avoid causing trouble. In addition, it was expensive and hard to find. If one wanted to find it, they could only rely on luck.
Although Guo Lie was Tao Zhenhong's disciple, he was not an itinerant cultivator after all. Even if he saw the Leaf Seal True Grass, he did not buy it like many spirit shells. Even disciples of large sects were not as generous as Zhang Yan. The reason why Guo Lie searched for enemies everywhere was also because he had no hope of cultivating in this life, so he vented his frustrations. If he could really refine the small golden core, even if the finished core was not high, it would not be completely cut off from the path of Dao. There would always be a glimmer of hope.
Zhang Yan did not say much. He took out the Leaf Seal True Grass and opened the box for Guo Lie to look at.
Guo Lie took a look. Even with his composure, his fingers could not help but tremble. He took a deep breath and said in a muffled voice, "Kid, you're so generous. Aren't you afraid that I'll take this grass?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "If I dare to take it out for you to see, I naturally have a way to prevent you from taking it."
Guo Lie looked up to the sky and let out a hearty laugh. "Okay, I agree to this."
Zhang Yan put away the Leaf Seal True Grass and looked at Guo Lie with a smile that was not a smile. He said, "But I have to remind you that there is a Yuanying cultivator beside Xiao Han. You have to think about it carefully."
Guo Lie sneered. "If this matter was easy, why would you come to me? Why would you come to look for Master Guo? No need to be long-winded. Since I've already agreed, I won't go back on my word. If I die, it has nothing to do with you. My master will avenge me. "
Zhang Yan nodded and said with a smile, "Then take a good rest, Daoist."
Guo Lie snorted when he heard that.
Zhang Yan cupped his fists and turned to leave. He returned to the Treasure Pavilion, sat down, and drove the Chidragon ship to the islands that Lu Junbai had mentioned.
The reef was more than a hundred kilometers away. It was shaped like the spine of a fish and was very recognizable. He hovered the Chidragon ship in the sky and meditated.
Half a month passed quickly.
On this day, two streaks of light, one white and one red, flew over from the sky. Zhang Yan sensed it and called out to Guo Lie, then they walked out together.
Lu Junbai looked down from above. Originally, he still had doubts about Zhang Yan. Right now, Guo Lie was standing there like an iron tower. The two of them had met once on the sea before, so they recognized him. They immediately felt relieved. With a shout, the light descended like a wisp of white smoke.
On his other side. When the red light descended, it lightly stood on the deck and silently revealed a bright and beautiful woman.
This woman had a cherry mouth and a jade-like nose. Her appearance was elegant, and there were no gold hairpins or beads on her head. Her long hair was tied up with an embroidered handkerchief and hung down to her heels. She wore a bright silver armor with a red veil on the inside. She wore a red cape on the outside and a pair of soft cloud boots on her feet. In her hand was a silver spear whose tassel was as red as blood.
Lu Junbai hurriedly introduced to Zhang Yan and Guo Lie, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, Fellow Daoist Guo, this is Demon Monarch Junyue, Jing Miaojun."
Zhang Yan smiled and cupped his fists. "I am Zhang Yan. Greetings, Demon Monarch Jing."
Jing Miaojun's clear and beautiful eyes looked over. Guo Lie's body only paused for a moment before sweeping over. However, her eyes stopped on Zhang Yan's face for a moment. When she saw Zhang Yan looking over, she hurriedly looked away. Her cheeks were slightly red, and she shyly curtsied, "Greetings, Fellow Daoist."
Guo Lie was a little impatient. "Since everyone is here, when should we move?"
Jing Miaojun wanted to greet Guo Lie, but when she heard his loud voice, she seemed to be frightened. She covered her bulging chest and took a step back.
Zhang Yan glanced at her. He did not underestimate Demon Monarch Junyue because of her actions. To become a Demon Monarch in the East Sea, how could it be as simple as it looked?
He smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Guo, please don't be impatient. We will depart now. This sea boat is very spacious. Fellow Daoists can choose a quiet room to stay in for the time being."
Having said that, he returned to the main pavilion, picked up the talisman, and started the boat. Along the way, the boat sailed towards Egret Island. The journey this time was uneventful. Ten days later, an island surrounded by green trees, flowers, and flowers, with hundreds of birds chirping together, appeared in the horizon.
The sea boat was too big. If it moved forward, it would inevitably be noticed by the other party. Therefore, it stopped far away.
Lu Junbai was familiar with the place. He first turned into a white smoke and went to the island to investigate. In less than an hour, he turned back and sneered, "So ten days ago, Xiao Han and his uncle, Xiao Mu, left Egret Island and went southeast. I think they can't wait to get the water of the Four Marquises. Now that there is only Zi Mei left on the island, it is the best time for us to act. Everyone, please follow me."
With Lu Junbai leading the way, the four snuck through the sea and smoothly arrived at the side of Egret Island. They carefully bypassed the restriction and went to the back of the mountain.
There were countless spiritual birds dancing on the island. In the inner island, there was a clear stream surrounding a cliff. On top of the cliff, there was a strange cave abode with wisteria hanging outside as curtains. This was Lu Meiniang's cave abode. If it wasn't for Lu Junbai's guidance, it would have been extremely difficult to find it.
After arriving at the back of the mountain, Lu Junbai led the three into a hidden col. He carefully looked around and pointed to a cave covered by vines. He said in a low voice, "There is a secret passage leading from the back of the mountain to my sister's quiet room. That day, there was no restriction in place to prevent any traitors from occupying the cave abode. Apart from my sister and me, no one else knows about it."
Although Lu Junbai said it openly, he was thinking in his heart, "After rescuing Lu Meiniang, he will definitely seal this secret passage."
Guo Lie was about to rush down when Zhang Yan reached out to stop him. He said, "Wait, it is too dangerous for the four of us to go down together. I have a method of concealment and am willing to go in and check. It will not be too late to make a countermeasure after finding out if she is under control."
Lu Junbai thought for a moment and agreed, "This method is appropriate."
Zhang Yan took a step forward and a mysterious light flashed above his head. He fell down and brushed away the old vines that had grown for who knows how many years. He then bent down and entered the cave.
The cave was very spacious. There were clouds hanging below him. He walked forward without touching the ground. After a few turns, a green jade screen appeared in front of him. He went around to the back and saw a smooth green stone blocking the way.
This kind of thing could be broken with just a brush of the mysterious light. But Zhang Yan calculated carefully. At this time, he had already reached the depths of the mountain. He was already very close to Lu Meiniang's cave. If he made a slight movement and attracted the attention of the purple eyebrows Taoist above, it would not be worth it.
He stepped forward and gently placed his hand on the rock, only to find that he couldn't move it. His eyes narrowed, and the Profound Qi in his abdomen, which was cultivated by the Spirit Comprehending Contract, suddenly swelled. His strength instantly multiplied, and he slightly shook the rock, bending down. He reached down and gently lifted it up, then silently placed it to the side.
At this time, there was a gray stone paved alley in front of him. He walked in leisurely. Not long after, he reached the end. He looked up and saw a jade cover above. This must be the entrance to Lu Meiniang's inner chamber.
He went down and put his hand on it. It was just a light touch. Before he could do anything, he heard a gentle voice from above saying, "Is it Junbai down there?"
Zhang Yan's movement paused. His eyes flashed and he said, "Is it Demon King Lu? I am Zhang Yan. I came here on behalf of Daoist Lu."
The voice said with surprise, "Are you the Daoist Zhang from Qincang School mentioned in Zhengting's letter?"
"Yes, I am." Zhang Yan said in a deep voice, "Demon King Lu, I can't stay here for long. I will make a long story short. Was there anything done to your body? "
Lu Meiniang was silent for a while, then sighed faintly and said, "Xiao Mu used a Talisman to stick to my head, and he used a forbidden golden nail to fix my Golden Core. Even the door of the quiet room was locked by the Yunyang Golden Lock. Zi Mei 'er also has a restriction talisman in her hand. If he chanted the incantation and the golden nail fell, all my cultivation would be gone. It would be impossible for me to escape now."
Hearing this, Zhang Yan's heart calmed down. As long as it was a restriction that required chanting the incantation, it would still take time. He had two Core Formation demon cultivators on his side, plus a small Golden Core cultivator. As long as he chose the right time, there was absolutely no chance for Zi Mei 'er to cast the spell.
He was so enthusiastic to save Lu Meiniang, but it was not that he didn't have any intentions.
From Lu Junbai's words, he could tell that the disaster of Donghua Continent was about to happen. The Lu siblings both had the intention of choosing a large sect to join, but they couldn't always choose one. Although he opened a mansion outside the sect, there was no one else in the Clear Nether Heavenly Lake who could support the situation other than him and Luo Xiao.
If he recruited the siblings into the mansion after he reached the Core Formation, not only would his strength increase by another level, but he would also have Yan Zhengting as an external aid. It should be known that this old man was very likely to step into the Yuanying Realm within a few decades. The benefits could be said to be endless.
Zhang Yan said, "Demon King Lu, I already know about my situation. I will call someone to rescue you now. However, I have one thing to tell you. If that Zi Mei Daoist asks you if you know Guo Lie, just say that you have offended Tao Zhenren in the past."
Although Lu Meiniang didn't know why he did this, she knew there must be a deeper meaning, so she immediately said, "I understand."
Zhang Yan said, "Demon King Lu, then I will take my leave first."
Lu Meiniang was silent for a while before saying, "Fellow Daoist, if you see my daughter, please let her go this time. She is usually very obedient, and she was just muddle-headed for a moment …"
Zhang Yan shook his head and responded casually. He was not interested in what she said next. He turned around and walked out the way he came. In a moment, he was out of the cave.
Seeing him come out, Lu Junbai hurriedly asked, "Fellow Daoist, have you seen my sister?"
Zhang Yan nodded and sighed. "Demon King Lu is indeed restrained by a restriction. Even his Gold Core was hit with a forbidden golden nail."
Lu Junbai's expression couldn't help but change slightly. He said, "Then what should we do?"
Zhang Yan smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist, you said before that Zi Mei Daoist has a magic treasure to protect himself. How did you know?"
Lu Junbai said resentfully, "Fellow Daoist, you don't know, but this person is extremely aggressive. After coming to the island for a few days, he has fought with me no less than three times. Therefore, I know that he has a magic treasure called 'Flowing Wind Ring'. Once this thing is out, no matter how hard I try, I can't kill him within the ring. I was defeated several times because of this."
