When the two of them finally knocked on the door, they were dumbfounded once more. It was just an ordinary courtyard in front of them. There was no trace of the immortal realm from before.
The two of them searched the inside and out of the house but couldn't find anyone. It was like a dream. Fatty Zhang had disappeared just like that. They didn't even know where he went.
"Second Brother, where did you go …" Lu Xuexin cried.
Miao Yi, who had been blaming himself for a long time, saw the ruby branch and jade leaf in his Little Sister's hand. His eyes lit up again and he comforted Lu Xuexin, "Little Sister, don't cry. Little Sister found a good master. He'll be fine."
Big Brother's words had always been more reliable than Second Brother's. She wiped her tears and choked, "How did Big Brother know?"
Miao Yi pointed to the ruby branch and jade leaf in her hand and explained, "If he really was a bad person, he wouldn't have let go of this immortal herb."
His words made sense. She asked, "Where was Second Brother taken to?"
Miao Yi couldn't answer this question …
In the wasteland dozens of miles away from the ancient city, the Yellow Robed Immortal and Fatty Zhang stood face to face. One had a smile on his face while the other was angry but didn't dare to speak.
A gust of wind blew, causing the wild grass to sway and the dust on the Yellow Robed Immortal's body to fly.
The hair on top of his head, the skin on his face, the clothes on his body, and the long sword on his back gradually turned into dust. It was as if his entire body was buried in the dust, and the wind gradually blew away his true appearance.
When the dust on his body dispersed, a bald old monk with two snow-white eyebrows hanging down to his chest could be seen. His face was benevolent and thin, and his eyes were bright and deep.
He was wearing a monk robe that was as white as snow, with black satin embroidered on the edges. The black satin was embroidered with gorgeous golden cloud patterns, and there was a purple lotus with nine petals between his eyebrows. His whole person was simple, but he exuded an indescribable noble aura. His expression was peaceful and kind, but he gave people a feeling of nobility like an emperor. He looked like an emperor among monks.
Fatty Zhang was dumbfounded and stammered, "You're a monk?"
The old monk smiled kindly, "The Celestial Nation doesn't welcome people from the Buddhist Nation to recruit disciples, so I hid my true appearance. Master and disciple are separated by tens of thousands of miles. It must be fate that brought us together here."
Fatty Zhang hurriedly shook his head and waved his hand, "We are not fated, really not fated."
The old monk smiled and asked, "How can you hear my unique Sanskrit voice if you're not fated? You must be fated."
"I don't want to be a monk. I like to eat meat and drink wine. I like beautiful women. I want to get a wife …" Fatty Zhang's face was filled with fear as he retreated. He had never thought that he would become a monk one day. It was too terrifying. He turned around and ran, shouting, "Big Brother, save me!"
"Foolish child, becoming my disciple is the dream of countless people in this world."
The old monk let out a sigh. The golden cloud patterns on the black satin at the edge of his collar suddenly came to life like snakes. They flew out from his clothes and circled around the old monk, who was standing with his palms put together. They gradually grew larger, and eventually turned into a huge golden flood dragon, which wrapped around the old monk and soared into the sky.
The Flood Dragon circled in the sky for a while before it swooped down and caught up with the panic-stricken Fatty Zhang. It directly carried him up into the sky, and with a shake of its head and tail, it quickly disappeared into the horizon with the two of them …
At this time, Miao Yi and Lu Xuexin squeezed through the crowd and arrived in front of a richly ornamented house.
He really couldn't tell which house was good and which house was bad. As he walked here, he saw many people crowding around to watch the commotion. He heard from the people that the red-clothed fairy who stood on top of the city wall and was revered by all the Immortals in the city had flown here, so he immediately squeezed in.
An Immortal who was revered by all the Immortals was naturally not an ordinary one. Miao Yi couldn't help but regret letting Fatty Zhang run into the Yellow Robed Immortal. Otherwise, Little Two and Little Three would be able to take care of each other. However, it was too late for regrets now.
As soon as the two siblings stepped onto the steps of the door, they were stopped by the Immortal guarding the door.
Miao Yi immediately signaled for Little Lu to take out the Red Jasper Branch and Jade Leaf that shone with starlight. The quality of this immortal herb immediately made the eyes of the Immortal guarding the door light up.
Someone in the crowd outside immediately shouted, "Isn't that the Zhang family's eldest and third brother? They've picked the immortal herb? "
They weren't as picky as the Yellow Robed Immortal. As soon as they saw the immortal herb, someone immediately came over to lead Little Lu into the house. However, Miao Yi, who wanted to send them off, was stopped outside.
For the sake of his little sister, Miao Yi nodded and bowed, smiling apologetically, "She's my little sister. Can I send her in and say a few words?"
The Immortal guarding the door extended his hand to stop him, and said expressionlessly, "Step down!"
Little Lu immediately shouted from inside the door, "Big Brother, you come too!"
The silly girl still couldn't see that her Big Brother only had two immortal herbs on him. If it was the sneaky Second Brother, he would definitely be able to guess what was going on.
Miao Yi immediately waved his hand and said, "Little Third, you go first. I'll go see if I can find Second Brother."
"Big Brother, I'll wait for you!" Little Lu's voice disappeared behind the door as she was taken away by someone.
"Little Third, take good care of yourself!"
Miao Yi tried his best to smile and let out a happy voice as he shouted towards the door, hoping that his laughter would put his Little Third at ease.
Turning around, Miao Yi faced the crowd that was looking at him enviously. His lips were tightly shut and his eyes were red, but he still maintained a smile on his face. He happily walked down the stairs and said to everyone proudly, "That's my little sister. She's become an Immortal. My little brother has also become an Immortal. My Second Brother and Third Brother have also become Immortals."
He was rarely so ostentatious, but right now, he couldn't wait to let everyone know about this good news. He wanted to let his neighbors know that the orphan daughter of the Lu family and the orphan of the Zhang family would be living a good life that mortals couldn't hope to achieve from now on.
However, he didn't see the hidden ridicule in the Immortal guarding the door's gaze.
An acquaintance from the same city pulled Miao Yi aside and asked, "That Zhang brat has also become an Immortal?"
Miao Yi nodded his head heavily.
A few other acquaintances from the same city squeezed over and interrupted, "Did you enter the Boundless Secular World to gather the immortal herbs?"
Miao Yi nodded again.
"How many immortal herbs did you gather?"
Miao Yi proudly raised two fingers, "Two."
Someone exclaimed in surprise, "Only two? Eldest Zhang, you didn't leave one for yourself? "
Miao Yi patted his chest and smiled, "It's fine. The Boundless Secular World hasn't been sealed yet, right? There's still a chance. "
Even though he said that, he wouldn't go in again. Because once he went in, he would understand how dangerous it was inside. He wouldn't be able to meet someone like Yan Beihong every time to save him from danger. The further he went in, the crazier the robberies became. If he went in again, it would be no different from throwing his life away. It was pure luck that he was able to come out alive.
"Tsk tsk. Old Lu and Old Zhang's ancestral graves are so blessed to have adopted such a good son. Their deaths were worth it!" Someone exclaimed in admiration.
Miao Yi grinned widely as he accepted everyone's congratulations. His face was almost stiff from smiling …
Inside the residence of the Flying Beams and Painted Rafters, Little Lu was led to the backyard and stood on a jade plate inscribed with runes.
Three cultivators stood in a triangular formation outside the jade plate. At the same time, they cast their transcendence arts and channeled their transcendence energy into the jade plate to test Little Lu's cultivation aptitude.
