"… We're all family. There's no need to stand on ceremony. As long as I can do it, I'll definitely do it."
Dao Being Heavenly Dipper stroked his beard and a glint flashed through his eyes as he chuckled at Chu Rui.
"Since that's the case, I won't stand on ceremony. The reason why I'm here today is to ask about someone's whereabouts, senior. "
Since Dao Being Heavenly Dipper was so upfront, Chu Rui did not stand on ceremony.
"Feel free to speak!"
Dao Being Heavenly Dipper was stunned – he had not expected Chu Rui to be here to ask about someone's whereabouts.
"Dao Being Yi Ye!"
Chu Rui spat out a name.
"Dao Being Yi Ye? Who is that? Perhaps my knowledge is shallow and I've never heard of such a person in any sect or even itinerant cultivators overseas. In fact, in history. "
Dao Being Heavenly Dipper's words caused Chu Rui's pupils to constrict.
Indeed!
"I see. Thank you for clearing my doubts, senior. I have something important to attend to and can't stay for long. I'll visit again in the future! "
Chu Rui cupped his fists and activated the power of the void before Dao Being Heavenly Dipper could say anything and disappeared from the spot.
"Power of space? Psst … just what realm has this young man grown to? … Who is Dao Being Yi Ye? For this lad to remember someone and specially come to ask about him, he's definitely not an ordinary person. I've got to investigate! "
Dao Being Heavenly Dipper gasped when he saw Chu Rui's disappearing figure. However, he was someone who was used to big scenes and calmed down quickly. With a solemn expression and a heart filled with doubts, he left the foot of the mountain and returned to the sect to look through the ancient books.
…
Indeed, it was Dao Being Yi Ye!
After leaving Heavenly Dipper Sect, Chu Rui stood on a nameless mountain peak and looked down at the beautiful mountains and rivers. The majestic scene that made one's heart open did not bring him any comfort. Instead, it sent a chill down his spine!
Ever since he woke up in Cloud Mist Continent and saw the talisman that had been forgotten for a long time supporting his body, he had started to have doubts.
Nirvana Convergence Talisman!
He had bought this talisman from Daoist Yi Ye for 100 million gold coins. For now, 100 million gold coins was nothing. But at that time, what did 100 million gold coins represent? It was almost 90% of his net worth, and there was no inflation. The purchasing power of 100 million gold coins was too great. However, due to his trust in Daoist Yi Ye, or to be more precise, his trust in his filthy but extremely practical goods, he bought the talisman. Unexpectedly, at such a critical moment, when he was being attacked by the Heavenly Demon, he saved his life.
How could the talisman of a mortal Daoist priest be so powerful? It actually freed him from the power of the Heavenly Devil from the Spirit of Primal Chaos, saved his life, and even reconstructed his body. How heaven-defying was this?
In that case, there was only one answer. Daoist Yi Ye was no mortal! And that talisman of his could actually have an effect on an existence like the Heavenly Demon and eliminate his power. There were very few people in the six realms who could do this.
After walking out of the novice village, he entered the level-three town where he could change his class. As he was the first to walk out of the novice village and the first to change his class, he was summoned by Prince Long Mo, who was not the Crown Prince at that time and had become the City Lord of a small city because of experience. In Long Mo's study, he saw the strange painting of heaven and hell. Hence, he accepted his request and went to the sealed place. There, he met Daoist Yi Ye, and the two of them worked together to defeat the sealed devil.
The second time they met was when he returned from Japan to save the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox in a limited time. At that time, he was busy looking for something and was burning with anxiety. He did not expect to meet Daoist Yi Ye, who had disappeared for a long time in the city. He spent all his savings and basically emptied Yi Ye's shop. At that time, he was too anxious and did not think too much. Now that he thought about it, the timing of Daoist Yi Ye's appearance was too coincidental.
Ever since that time, he had never seen Daoist Yi Ye again. In fact, he had not even heard of him. With Daoist Yi Ye's capabilities, even if ordinary mortals did not know about him, the cultivation world would definitely have some information about him. However, after asking Dao Being Heavenly Dipper today, he found out that Daoist Yi Ye was not from the cultivation world.
Come to think of it, Daoist Yi Ye's appearance was way too strange. It was as though he was here to help him complete something that he could not complete back then – a divine weapon descending from the heavens.
All of this seemed like there was a mastermind behind the scenes who was slowly pushing things forward, leading to today's situation step by step. He thought that everything was going according to his wishes. However, in reality, everything was arranged by someone or a faction. All of his actions were within their expectations. This was the most terrifying form of manipulation.
Rui's entire body was covered in cold sweat.
Who was it? Who was secretly pushing things?
Hong Jun? Heavenly Fiend? Heavenly Dao? Or … fate? Or was it a mysterious existence that was hidden in the shadows that he did not know about?
At this moment, Rui fell into a deep state of confusion.
When there was nothing he could do and his plans could not keep up with the changes, the only choice he had was to deal with everything as it came. However, at that moment, he did not even know about the enemy, let alone deal with them. How should this duel proceed?
The enemy was in the shadows while he was in the light?
It would be fine if that was the case. It was only now that he knew of the existence of such an enemy. It was truly way too terrifying – the mastermind hidden in the shadows.
Daoist Yi Ye did not exist in the human world and even Dao Being Heavenly Dipper had not heard of him before. Furthermore, the talismans he possessed were so strong that even Heavenly Fiends could be deceived. Such a terrifying existence must have been played by someone from the God Realm, silently pushing all of this forward. He had deceived everyone in the world and Chu Rui as well.
I don't care who you are. Wait until the day I drag you out. I will know how miserable you will be for manipulating this Great Master!
Chu Rui gritted his teeth and temporarily suppressed this thought in his heart. At this moment, it was not the time to deal with this. No matter what, no matter what happened, he could not let Qin Yue and the rest be harmed in the slightest. At that moment, their whereabouts were unknown and he did not know where they were. He had to find them first.
"Heart of Chaos – Love of the Moon and Star!"
He held the Heart of Chaos tightly in his chest and used his soul to feel the spiritual power of the girls inside. The connection between their hearts and with the help of the power of laws, it instantly pulled Chu Rui's body away from his original spot.
