Even Sect Master Chen Xuanhua and the three elders were dumbfounded, their eyes widened into saucers. The words "Mystic Formula" and "Golden Core Path" gripped their hearts and souls like a curse. A Mystic Formula that could be used to comprehend the Golden Core Path was a priceless treasure. If they could obtain this formula and enter the Core Formation stage, wouldn't they be able to soar into the sky and see the truth?
"Thank you, Lady …"
When Elder Blue Bird came to his senses, he immediately knelt down and thanked Lady Xuan for her kindness.
Lady Xuan was slightly startled. "There's no need for that. Get up!"
As she spoke, she took out a blank jade scroll and inserted a strand of divine sense into it. After a while, she handed it to Elder Blue Bird.
When Elder Blue Bird received it, his hands were trembling uncontrollably.
The other elders, including the sect master, Chen Xuanhua, were all envious and on the verge of spitting fire.
Lady Xuan naturally noticed their gazes and lightly instructed, "The Fuyao Palace Technique is not to be taught lightly. Remember this!"
Elder Blue Bird hurriedly said, "I understand. I won't leak a word of it!"
The other elders, including the Sect Master, could not hide the disappointment in their eyes. It was obvious that Lady Xuan did not want Elder Blue Bird to teach them this secret technique. After all, this was the reward she used in exchange for Xiao Man. She only intended to use it to pave the way for Blue Bird to enter the Golden Core Path. She did not intend for this technique to become the legacy of the Blue Cloud Sect. These were two different matters.
"Alright, let's watch the martial arts demonstration. This matter ends here. I don't want to teach anyone else the Mystic Formula!"
As if to dispel the thoughts in the hearts of the elders, Fourth Mother Xuan lightly gave another instruction.
However, it was also because of her words that Xiao Shanhe made a decision in his heart. He suddenly made up his mind, straightened his robe, took a step forward, and knelt down. He said, "Your Highness, please wait. I have something to report to Your Highness …"
"Haha, there's no end to it!"
Lady Xuan laughed bitterly, looking disinterested. She gently sat down on the chair and said indifferently, "What do you have to say?"
Beside her, Granny Qian also raised her head and looked at Xiao Shanhe with surprise in her eyes. Chen Xuanhua and the other three Elders also had puzzled expressions. They didn't know what Xiao Shanhe, this mercenary guy, wanted to do.
Xiao Shan He seemed to be in a difficult position under so many gazes. He hesitated for a moment before saying in a low voice, "I would like to have a word with you!"
Fourth Madam Xuan felt a little helpless. She gently rubbed her forehead and raised her hand slightly, saying, "Granny Qian, let him take a step!"
Granny Qian stood up and said with a smile, "Elder Xiao, please!"
Xiao Shan He seemed to be a little unwilling, but he did not dare to say anything. After a slight hesitation, he rode on the blue cloud and led Granny Qian to a secluded valley. Standing on top of a mountain, Xiao Shan He seemed to be a little nervous. A layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. He said in a low voice, "Granny Qian, if I am not mistaken, besides Nan Zhan's Mental Map, you are also looking for someone, right?"
Granny Qian was startled. She looked at Xiao Shan He with a faint smile and said, "How did you know?"
Xiao Shan He wiped the sweat off his forehead and gathered his courage. He said, "I am not an idiot. For the past few days, Granny Qian has been wandering around the mountains of the Blue Cloud Sect. It seems like you are inspecting the defensive capabilities of the Blue Cloud Sect, but in fact, it seems like you are looking for some clues. In addition, I have also asked a fellow cultivator from the Ice Sound Palace. I learned that Lady Xuan had asked the Palace Master of the Ice Sound Palace about a person …"
Granny Qian's eyes seemed to flicker as she said in a deep voice, "Elder Xiao is very thoughtful. After searching for so long, our intentions have actually faded, so we did not search with great fanfare. I didn't expect you to discover our goal from these clues. Very good, since you have already inquired about the Ice Tune Palace, you must also know that we once promised the old man of the Ice Tune Palace that as long as they can help us find this person, they will receive an inherited profound technique as a reward, right?"
Xiao Shan He's breathing quickened. He thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "I have heard of it!"
Granny Qian nodded lightly and said, "Then tell me what you know!"
Xiao Shan He looked hesitantly at Fourth Madam Xuan, who was not far away.
Granny Qian smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about the Master. It is only a Xuan Technique. I can make the decision on this matter!"
Xiao Shan He took a deep breath. Suddenly, he gathered his courage and took out a jade talisman. He said in a low voice, "If I may be so bold, I would like to ask Senior for a guarantee. Firstly, I would like to ask Granny to protect the safety of the Xiao Clan. If that person causes any enmity, I do not wish for the Xiao Clan to be involved. Secondly, the inherited Xuan Technique … can it help me reach the Golden Core Realm?"
Grandma Qian looked at Xiao Shanhe with some surprise. After a long while, she nodded slightly and said, "You're very bold. You've even mentioned the Fuyao Palace as your condition!"
Xiao Shan He hurriedly lowered his head. However, he did not put down the jade talisman in his hand. Seeing this, Granny Qian took the jade talisman and said, "I cannot make the decision on this matter. It is better for me to report to the Master!"
As she said this, she rode a cloud to Fourth Madam Xuan and whispered a few words in her ear.
Fourth Madam Xuan's expression changed. She flew to Xiao Shan He and said sternly, "You have news of that person?"
Xiao Shan He lowered his head and said in a low voice, "I have a close friend in the Ice Sound Palace. From him, I learned that the Mistress is looking for a Golden Core Realm cultivator who came from the Dong Sheng Divine Continent seven hundred years ago. This person is most proficient in the art of sealing. His strength is profound and far exceeds that of an ordinary Golden Core Realm cultivator … In addition … that person is from the Jiang Clan, right? In that case, he should be cultivating the Boundless Flood Sky Technique … "
After listening to Xiao Shan He say so much, Fourth Madam Xuan's eyes also became solemn. She said in a low voice, "Can these conditions match?"
Xiao Shan He said in a low voice, "I know of a person who appeared five hundred years ago. His background is mysterious and no one knows him. This person is kind and rarely fights. However, three hundred years ago, he once made a move. With a point of his finger, he sealed a Golden Core Realm late stage Great Demon Beast from the various small sects in the Chu Region. The sealing ability is obvious … However, this person's cultivation technique doesn't seem to be right …"
Seeing Fourth Madam Xuan's eyebrows raised, Xiao Shan He hurriedly said his guess, "In fact, no one knows what kind of cultivation technique this person cultivates. However, he once revealed that it was the Divine Strategy Destruction Technique. So at first, I thought it was a mistake. Later, I suddenly realized that what he said may not be the truth. It could be to confuse people …"
Fourth Madam Xuan's expression became nervous. She also felt that what Xiao Shan He said made sense. She said in a low voice, "Where is this person now?"
Xiao Shan He was silent.
Fourth Madam Xuan understood what he was thinking. She smiled coldly and took the jade talisman. She sent her divine sense into it and said, "I promise you that you will not be involved in any grudges. Your Xiao Clan can live on in peace for thousands of years. In addition, I will also give you the Xuan Formula. Not only can you cultivate it, but you can also pass it on to your descendants. It will be the family's inheritance method!"
Xiao Shan He was extremely excited. His hands trembled as he received the jade talisman. He knelt down and said in a loud voice, "Thank you, Lady Xuan, for your great kindness …"
Fourth Madam Xuan said impatiently, "Where is he?"
Xiao Shan He raised his head and kept the jade talisman. He said, "Lady Xuan, please follow me!"
As he spoke, he took the lead and flew toward Flying Rock Peak. Fourth Madam Xuan and the others immediately followed behind him.
Seeing that Xiao Shan He and Fourth Madam Xuan were chatting about something and were heading straight for Blue Cloud Sect's Flying Rock Peak, Sect Master Chen Xuanhua and the elders of Sunset Perching, Duanzhen, and Shu Wen Valleys immediately realized that something was wrong and hurriedly followed.
"Lady Xuan, where … are you going?"
Fourth Madam Xuan looked at Chen Xuanhua and said lightly, "I want to visit an old friend. Sect Master, are you going to stop me?"
Seeing that her expression was not right, Chen Xuanhua broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly said, "I dare not …"
However, his gaze turned to Xiao Shan He with a questioning look.
What old friend could Fourth Madam Xuan possibly have in Blue Cloud Sect?
Who would be qualified to be her old friend?
Xiao Shan He saw Chen Xuanhua's gaze, but he only smiled coldly and did not answer. In fact, he was not in a position to answer. Bai Qianzhang was already in closed-door cultivation, and it was taboo to knock on his door midway. Even if Bai Qianzhang still had hope of breaking through to the Yuanying stage, if he were to knock on his door midway, all his previous efforts would be wasted, and he might even die immediately. In this way, it would be tantamount to him betraying Bai Qianzhang.
Not long after, everyone arrived in front of a sealed stone door on Flying Rock Peak and landed.
At this point, Chen Xuanhua did not need them to say anything to guess what had happened. He was shocked and hurriedly said, "Please forgive me, Lady Xuan. I wonder if Elder Bai of Blue Cloud Sect … has offended Lady Xuan in any way?"
Fourth Madam Xuan's expression was slightly mocking as she said indifferently, "If he is really an Elder of Blue Cloud Sect, then he has not offended me in any way!"
She paused for a moment before continuing, "But if he is not, then it's hard to say!"
