In these two days, Wei Ling had broken through to realm eighteen and emerged from seclusion.
But he had not expected that as soon as he emerged from seclusion, Mister Zun would summon him to the treehouse.
He had not been disturbed while in seclusion. This Mister Zun had such an accurate grasp of his situation? It could be said that he knew him like the back of his hand.
Wei Ling became even more cautious.
Bie Donglai swept his gaze over Wei Ling. "Martial Saint? But he's quite a figure among Martial Saints, so he must not be a nameless person. "
Wei Ling had previously been one of the Ten Heroes of Hong Chen. At realm seventeen, his strength was comparable to many peak eighteenth-tier Martial Saints. He was a longtime elder of a Holy Land, and only the top ten Martial Saints would dare to say that they could easily defeat him.
And after he broke through to realm eighteen and reached the peak of Martial Saint, he could compete for the position of one of the ten Martial Saints.
From the moment he emerged from seclusion, he had officially replaced his father, Wei Chaoran, as the number one expert of the Wei Clan. At the same time, he was the third most powerful person under the Empress and Rain Master of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and he had a chance of breaking through to Martial Saint in the future.
This kind of cultivation and strength was enough for Bie Donglai to look at him in a different light.
However, that was all.
Compared to Bie Donglai, the gap between Wei Ling and himself was too obvious. He did not attract as much attention as Xu Peng.
Wei Ling clasped his hands in Silence. "This junior has yet to make any progress, and will need Senior's guidance."
Then, he nodded at Li Gucheng and Ji Zhong.
"Congratulations." Li Gucheng and Ji Zhong calmly returned the greeting.
Their current cultivation was still restricted by the Divine Tree of Creation, so they could not see through some of Wei Ling's secrets like Bie Donglai could. However, they trusted Bie Donglai's insight.
Ji Zhong did not care, but Li Gucheng noted it down.
Just as Bie Donglai had said, there were not many people like Wei Ling in the mortal world, and they were all famous. In a while, they would ask around and see who had broken through, and they would be able to find a match.
Wei Ling did not seem to mind everyone's gazes, and he sat motionlessly.
"After the joyous occasion, I have other news to tell everyone," Mister Zun continued. "Wutong will not appear here again."
Li Gucheng and Wei Ling both inwardly frowned, while Bie Donglai casually asked, "You punished him by killing him?"
Mister Zun seemed to be avoiding the question, "Today, I have gathered everyone here because, after investigating the news of the Demon Lord and the Human Sovereign, I have a third matter that I need your help with."
The Honor Demon was still alive, the Human Sovereign had fallen, and the Emperor's Mausoleum was now destroyed. These two matters could be considered to have come to an end. Most of the people present had expected this.
Xu Peng listened quietly and was slightly moved.
As expected, Mister Zun continued, "I would like to ask everyone to help me pay attention to information related to the God of the Netherworld."
Ji Zhong's heart sank when he heard that.
In his previous life, the ancient god Goumang, strictly speaking, had been suppressed by Emperor Xi since ancient times because his body had been taken over by the God of the Underworld.
The explosion of the Innate Tomb only destroyed Gou Mang's remains, but the God of the Nether was still there. No one knew where he went, and who knew when he would reappear with a new face.
Wei Ling and Li Gucheng both had powerful backgrounds, but their understanding of the God of the Nether was relatively limited. It was only because Xu Peng's secret had been publicized that the news about the God of the Nether gradually spread in the mortal world.
Bie Donglai raised his eyebrows. "You also care about the God of the Nether?"
Mister Zun did not speak. His face, which was faintly discernible under the light, seemed to reveal an incomprehensible smile.
Li Gucheng frowned inwardly, feeling the pressure.
He really did not have any clues in this regard.
The disappearance of the "Wutong" also made him somewhat nervous.
"Regarding Azure Dragon Island's Xu Peng, other than his specific whereabouts, there is no need to mention anything else," Mister Zun added.
Xu Peng sat to the side in Silence, as if nothing had happened.
Bie Donglai suddenly reached out and knocked on the round table. "I will provide you with information about the God of the Nether, and you will tell me where that damned old man is."
"I have some clues about your master's whereabouts." Mister Zun nodded.
"Alright, in the Saha Realm, a few years ago, the whereabouts of a God of the Nether was exposed. At the time, he was a Martial Saint, but whether or not he has been slapped to death by the Heavenly Buddha, I'm not sure. You can go and check for yourself," Bie Donglai said.
Everyone, including Xu Peng, froze.
They were all people of the mortal world, and their scope of activity was also within the Red Dust World.
Although they all knew that Martial Saints could freely travel between the six realms, no one had ever thought about anything outside of the mortal world.
How could this be counted?
Bie Donglai looked at Mister Zun very seriously. "Now, it is time for you to tell me where that old man is."
Mister Zun did not seem dissatisfied with this. He only asked for confirmation, "When exactly?"
"About five years ago. I was looking for Yanyan when I happened to hear the news in the Saha Realm. I did not take it to heart at the time," Bie Donglai replied. "Why would I need to deceive you? Back then, this matter caused a huge commotion in the Saha Realm. You will know once you ask, but that was five years ago. I cannot guarantee that the God of the Nether is still alive. "
Mister Zun asked, "Do you know what is so special about him?"
"I'm not sure. I only heard that he is mute, and he seems to be missing a hand." Bie Donglai shook his head.
"Okay, I believe you," Mister Zun said gently. "As for your master's whereabouts, you should pay attention to the south."
Bie Donglai's eyebrows furrowed. "The south? Where is the south? The Land of the Ancient God or the Wilderness? "
Mister Zun replied, "The Wilderness."
"It has something to do with the Crouching Dragon Sand?" Bie Donglai's eyes widened, and he became spirited.
Mister Zun shook his head. "I will go to the Saha Realm to investigate what you said, and you will need to investigate the Wilderness yourself."
Bie Donglai did not go crazy. Instead, he examined Mister Zun with a strange gaze. "You are truly strange. You are not that old man, but you know so much about that damned old man, and you are even interested in Zhi Zun, the Human Emperor, and the God of the Nether.
I mentioned you to Zhi Zun before. Guess what Zhi Zun said? "
Mister Zun's tone remained indifferent. "I would like to hear the details."
"A clown, deliberately mystifying things," Bie Donglai said with a chuckle.
Mister Zun was nonchalant, and he seemed to smile. "He won't be able to live for long, so let him have his way with words."
The hall instantly fell silent.
This almost earth-shattering sentence shocked everyone present.
Bie Donglai and Xu Peng were both slightly startled.
Xu Peng's eyes flashed, and he fell silent once more.
Bie Donglai, on the other hand, came to his senses and laughed loudly. "Good! You're crazy enough. I will bring these words to Zhi Zun for you. "
Mister Zun waved his hand. "I am just a spectator, but there is no harm in reminding him."
Everyone in the hall fell into deep thought.
Could these words be referring to the rumored battle between Zhi Zun and Xi and the Young Master of the World Sky?
Mister Zun looked around. "First of all, I would like to thank the 'Peach Tree' for bringing this information. As for the others, there is no need to be anxious. We can talk about it the next time we meet.
The God of the Nether has always been secretive, so in order to prevent everyone from wasting time, I will share some information with everyone as a clue. I will have to trouble everyone to help me verify the authenticity of this information. "
Everyone gathered their thoughts and looked at Mister Zun even more cautiously.
"The God of the Nether may be active on the Coast of the East Sea and the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. If you have the time, please help me look for it."
Hearing Mister Zun's words, Wei Ling's heart was in turmoil.
The others all secretly noted it down.
"Let's talk about it when we have the time," Bie Donglai said impatiently. "I am going to the Wilderness."
After saying this, he walked out of the hall of the "tree house."
Xu Peng remained calm. He nodded at Mister Zun and also turned to leave.
Li Gucheng was worried about the internal situation of his Western Qin Dynasty. He had wanted to ask Mister Zun for advice, but he did not have any clues about the God of the Nether, so he could only give up and leave after saluting.
Wei Ling and Ji Zhong stayed for a while. Seeing that the other party did not leave, they both paused.
Mister Zun then said, "My two young friends, there is no need to worry. If there is anything, we can talk about it alone. Who will go first?"
Ji Zhong gave in. "I can go later."
"Thank you." Wei Ling nodded. Mister Zun sent out a ray of light to shroud himself and Wei Ling, isolating them from the outside world.
"Senior, you know my background. I am from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. I am happy to serve you and inquire for information," Wei Ling said respectfully. "I wonder if there are more details about the rumors you have heard?"
"It is possible. It is in Tianfeng City," Mister Zun said calmly.
Wei Ling took a deep breath. "I understand. I will try my best to investigate."
Mister Zun nodded slightly. "I look forward to your good news."
He saw Wei Ling off and then looked at Ji Zhong.
Ji Zhong cupped his hands. "Forgive me for being presumptuous. About the Human Emperor, are you no longer concerned about it?"
Chen Luoyang, who was disguised as "Mister Zun", could roughly guess what Ji Zhong was thinking.
The young man in front of him wanted to stand aloof from worldly affairs and did not like to get involved in the troubles of the mortal world.
It was because he felt that he owed Mister Zun a favor that he came to the Human Emperor's Mausoleum to fight. As a result, he became enemies with Heavenly Demon Ye, which caused endless troubles.
He did not blame Mister Zun or ask for Mister Zun's help.
Instead, if the matter about the Human Emperor came to an end, he and Heavenly Phoenix would not get involved in Heavenly Demon Ye's matter anymore.
Since Heavenly Demon Ye came to seek revenge, they had no other choice but to deal with it.
If Heavenly Demon Ye did not attack Xian Tian Palace directly, they would not participate in the siege.
Although it was a little negative, Ji Zhong had a hunch that if he participated in this battle, he would only sink deeper and deeper into the troubles of the mortal world.
He was the reincarnation of Gou Mang, an expert in Fuxi's heritage and a companion of Heavenly Phoenix. Although he could not predict things perfectly, this hunch was enough to show that the problem was very serious.
Mister Zun looked at Ji Zhong in Silence. His tone was still calm and indifferent, "That's right. Little friend, you went to the Human Emperor's Mausoleum first and helped me get back the Earth Overturning Seal. Now, the matter can be considered to have come to an end."
Ji Zhong bowed and said, "I understand. I will not disturb senior's cultivation anymore. I will take my leave now."
After Ji Zhong left, the light around Mister Zun dispersed and Chen Luoyang's appearance appeared again.
He smiled.
Ji Zhong and Heavenly Phoenix were strong, but it was better that they were not present in the battle with Heavenly Demon Ye.
