Old Man Ouyang's back was still facing Lu Zhou as he said, "There's a remnant aura of the Holy Beast, the Fire Phoenix. Have you seen it before?"
Lu Zhou said, "Yes.
"You're looking for the Fire Phoenix?"
Old Man Ouyang turned around. His eyes were slightly weathered, and his expression was calm. He looked like an ordinary old man. He looked at Lu Zhou and nodded. A hint of approval could be seen in his eyes as he said, "You're that great Perfected Master, aren't you? There's no need to be hostile. I'm only here for the Fire Phoenix. "
Lu Zhou shook his head and said, "It has left. Based on your knowledge, do you think I have a chance of defeating it? "
Old Man Ouyang looked at the devastated Northern Mountain Dojo and agreed with Lu Zhou.
"You're right. I've offended you today. Your cultivation base and talent are great. Perhaps, we'll meet again in the future. Perhaps, this Primordial Void Pill can help you. Consider it compensation. "Old Man Ouyang tossed a pill to Lu Zhou.
'Compensation if it's not a big deal?' Lu Zhou thought to himself. His logic was strange.
The Primordial Void Pill was no ordinary pill. Tuoba Sicheng had relied on this pill to ascend to the next rank. With this pill, Lu Zhou would be able to attain the Nine Birth Charts.
"You're not related to me. Why are you giving me such a valuable item?" Lu Zhou was puzzled.
'Strange things have been happening lately.
First, there's Jie Jinan. Now, there's Old Man Ouyang. Both of them are giving me treasures.
Perhaps, they've mistaken me for someone else. '
'Lu Tiantong, that bastard, is so popular?'
"Wait." Lu Zhou called out to Old Man Ouyang. Jie Jinan had run away, and he did not get anything out of him. This time, he had to get something out of Old Man Ouyang.
"Reawakening. I have other matters to attend to. Farewell."
Whizz!
Whizz!
After the energy resonance, the old man vanished. The two cultivators who were in the Northern Mountain Daoist Field flew into the sky and disappeared.
"Reawakening?"
Lu Zhou frowned slightly as he looked at the empty sky.
…
Meanwhile.
Old Ouyang led his two subordinates and appeared on the northern side of a mountain. They stopped and did not move any further.
"Mister Ouyang, the Fire Phoenix's aura is very strong in the ruins. The Fire Phoenix shouldn't have gone far. Why aren't you investigating?"
Mr. Ouyang glanced at the subordinate and said, "Are you questioning me?"
"This subordinate dares not!"
"The Fire Phoenix is also known as the Immortal Bird. Do you think you can catch it with your strength?" Mr. Ouyang asked.
"But, aren't … aren't you here?" the subordinate said.
"I came to the Green Lotus Sect to relax, not to find trouble for myself. I can't defeat the Fire Phoenix. "Mr. Ouyang said.
"…"
"Back off, I want to be alone."
"Yes."
The two subordinates left in a flash.
After a while, a black shadow appeared nearby and said, "Brother Ouyang, long time no see."
"Brother?" Elder Ouyang frowned.
"It's just a joke. Why take it to heart … We're old bones, and we're already so old. How boring would it be if we kept a straight face all day long?"
Old Man Ouyang said, "I didn't come to see you to hear this."
"Alright, alright, alright." The phantom chuckled. "Have you seen him?"
"Yes."
"What do you think?"
"Nothing much," Elder Ouyang said.
"To think that you're from the Taixu, ptooey …"
"I gave him the Taixu Pill," Elder Ouyang said, "I hope your judgment isn't wrong."
"… If it's wrong, I'll cut off Jinan's head and take it away."
Hearing this, Elder Ouyang fell silent.
His expression was one of vicissitudes of life.
Facing the remnant light from the sky, which shone on his face, he looked somewhat dispirited and melancholic.
As if recalling all sorts of unbearable past events, he sighed heavily and said, "I hope so …"
"Hahaha … haha …" Jie Jinan laughed out loud. "In this world, including the Taixu and the Endless Ocean … only I can find him!"
Elder Ouyang nodded and said, "So, you're planning to keep hiding?"
"Hide?" Jie Jinan said disapprovingly. "Why not travel the world? Why not? You people from the Divine Temple are a bunch of good-for-nothings. You want to catch me? "
Elder Ouyang shook his head. "You're wrong. It's the Taixu that doesn't care about you, not that we don't want to catch you. You'd better behave yourself. "
"Let's go. We don't see eye to eye."
With a flash, Jie Jinan disappeared.
…
In the Nanshan Training Ground.
Lu Zhou recalled Elder Ouyang's words and repeated them, "The reemergence of the light era? Bright Bird? "
He could not help but recall Si Wuya's unusual behavior.
He immediately activated his Heaven Eye to observe Si Wuya.
In the room.
Si Wuya packed his things and stood up.
"I'll depart for Penglai tomorrow. Come with me," Si Wuya said.
Jiang Aijian shook his head and said, "I'll have no problem with returning to Penglai, but there's no need to talk about going to Chongming."
"I have three desolate-grade swords here. They're freshly forged by the Sky Martial Court. They're slightly ugly, but nobody wants them. I'm thinking of smelting them tomorrow," Si Wuya said regretfully.
"Don't, don't, don't … Every sword is born from a peerless beauty. You're such a heartless man. You're so fond of destroying flowers. Be careful that you won't be able to find a wife in the future," Jiang Aijian said.
Si Wuya smiled and said nothing.
Jiang Aijian could only say, "You've Got Me, alright? I'll go with you. The sword is mine. "
"Not a problem."
"Why do you insist on going to Chongming Mountain?" Jiang Aijian asked curiously.
"There's a new discovery about the heaven and earth shackles. I need to verify it," Si Wuya said.
"That's too far-fetched. If you don't want to tell me, so be it. "
After saying this, Jiang Aijian turned around and left. When he reached the door, he said, "Don't forget about my sword."
Si Wuya smiled and said, "Jiang Aijian."
"If you have something to say, spit it out. If you have something to say, spit it out as well," Jiang Aijian said.
"What's your lifelong pursuit?" Si Wuya asked.
Jiang Aijian looked at the scenery outside the door and said, "My pursuit has never changed … I can't help it. It's my fault for being so single-minded. I don't seek cultivation or longevity. All I want is to gather all the best swords under the heavens. When I die of old age, I'll build a sword tomb and have a million 'beauties' guard me for generations to come. How comfortable … "
"…"
What a vulgar pursuit.
"We'll depart tomorrow."
"Alright."
…
Lu Zhou retracted his power.
He was slightly puzzled as he muttered to himself, "Did something happen on Chongming Mountain?"
He continued to observe for a while longer. When he noticed Si Wuya was busy with his work, he had no choice but to stop using his power.
At this moment, Yan Zhenluo and Lu Li appeared outside the dojo. "Pavilion Master."
"Come in."
Yan Zhenluo and Lu Li entered the dojo.
Lu Li cut to the chase and said, "The imbalance has worsened. A large number of beasts are heading toward the golden lotus!"
Lu Zhou frowned.
He was a grand Perfected Master now. If the Law of Equilibrium was still in effect, a grand Perfected Master would be able to balance out Tuoba Sicheng and Ye Zheng.
Alas, the balance had been lost. The beasts had migrated in an attempt to restore the balance, but the imbalance had only worsened.
"Why is it the golden lotus?"
"I don't know. Mister Third and Lu Wu have gone to the entrance of the Misty Forest to guard the unknown land. There won't be any beasts threatening the golden lotus for the time being. However … I can't guarantee the beasts of the Endless Ocean, "Lu Li said.
"The oceanic beasts set off from the Endless Ocean about 5,000 miles east. They'll reach Penglai in less than five days. I'm afraid Penglai is in trouble. I'm curious as well. Why is it the golden lotus? "
PS: The characters will be given knives later, and the plot will be heated up.
