"If you don't want to bring it back, then don't bring it back. I'll just keep an eye on it." Xu Ruotong waved her hand nonchalantly. "I promised to return Chen Luoyang's favor. This is a small matter."
Cheng Shuzhi smiled bitterly. "This is just a small favor. The important thing is the bigger one."
Back in the mortal world, before they surrounded Heavenly Demon Ye in the battle of Sunset Mountain, the Demon Emperor and the Empress had exchanged Heavenly Tomes with each other.
At that time, Xu Ruotong owed Chen Luoyang a favor.
Now, Su Ye could get pointers from Xu Ruotong and borrow the "Human" Heavenly Book while she was traveling in the Void Realm.
However, as Cheng Shuzhi said, it was just a small favor.
The real highlight was the Empress staying in the Void Realm to cultivate and ascend to the Martial God level. It was the help of the Demon Emperor and the other Lord Daoists.
It would not be easy to return this big favor.
"What will come will come. Everyone will be involved in this, and no one can hide. It's just a matter of which side you stand on." Xu Ruotong was very calm about this. "When the time comes, we'll do our best and leave it to fate."
However, she immediately looked irritated, and she slapped the table in front of her. "The problem is, what can I do in my current situation? It's ridiculous!"
Her face was full of suspicion. She turned her head to the side and said, "I say, this can't be your plan, right?"
A thick black fog suddenly appeared in the empty space.
A woman's figure appeared in the black fog.
The woman's voice was a little emotional. "You've wronged us. We didn't expect such a scene. Although it's not completely impossible, it really happened. I can't help but sigh. Heaven's will is playing tricks on us."
Xu Ruotong curled her lips. "You don't speak the truth. When you encouraged us to leave the mortal world, you were waiting to take advantage of me."
The woman in the black fog smiled. "The final result is not bad for you, is it?"
Xu Ruotong glared at her and pointed at her forehead. "That's if there's no this."
In the black fog, Chen Chuhua shook his head. "This is really beyond everyone's expectations."
Xu Ruotong slumped on the table in front of her and said weakly, "Forget it. I won't feel itchy when there are too many lice, and I won't worry when there are too many debts."
Chen Chuhua smiled. "I'll have to trouble you later, Fellow Daoist."
She retreated and disappeared into the black mist. Then, the black mist dissipated.
Cheng Shuzhi sighed at the side: "It was I who did not consider things thoroughly and misunderstood Ji Tianqiong's words."
"It doesn't matter if we talk about this now. Gratitude and grudges, good and bad, are all entangled together." Xu Ruotong waved her hand. "Look forward, don't look back."
Cheng Shuzhi nodded silently.
…
The black mist reappeared in another part of the Void Realm.
In the quiet snowy valley, Chen Chuhua walked out of the black fog.
In the valley, in the middle of the frozen river, a woman in white sat cross-legged.
Chen Chuhua appeared. She opened her eyes. "Is it time?"
"Yes, it should be soon." Chen Chuhua casually walked to her side and sat down. "Senior Sister, how do you feel?"
Yan Mingkong's expression was normal. "Nothing special so far."
Chen Chuhua nodded. "You still have to be careful."
At this moment, another person suddenly appeared in the valley. When she saw Chen Chuhua, her eyes lit up. "Second Senior Sister, you're here too?"
It was a young man with disheveled hair. It was Su Ye.
"I'm here to see you guys," said Chen Chuhua with a smile.
"I'm great. I'll be able to see through heaven and earth soon." Su Ye was elated at first, but her mood soon became gloomy. "But Senior Brother still won't let me go back."
Chen Chuhua smiled. "This place is more suitable for your cultivation."
Su Ye asked, "Will Senior Brother let me go back if my cultivation level is higher?"
"You'll have to ask your Senior Brother." Chen Chuhua smiled and shook his head.
Su Ye nodded. Then, she looked at Yan Mingkong. "Eldest Senior Sister, can you apologize to Senior Brother and let's go back together?"
In the past, among the five apprentice sisters and junior brothers, Yan Mingkong, Chen Chuhua and Su Ye were good friends. Even though they belonged to the Junior Faction and the Elder Faction, it did not affect them.
When Su Ye was growing up in his youth, he had also received pointers from this senior sister of his.
But she, Chen Luoyang, and Wang Fei didn't bite the bullet.
After hearing Su Ye's words, Yan Mingkong wasn't unhappy. She just shook her head calmly. "You don't have to persuade me anymore. I won't go back."
Su Ye pouted, "You've wasted so much effort, even the Limitless Sea of Blood. You're only left with the first two styles of the Underworld Sword. You've wasted ten years. Otherwise, you would've been a Revered Martial Artist long ago."
He looked at Yan Mingkong worriedly. "Although you comprehended the two moves of the Dark Sword on your own, it's still a problem for the Dark Venerable."
Yan Mingkong nodded indifferently. "I know."
"Senior Sister, is it really worth it?" Chen Chuhua sighed. "Your path is too difficult. Even if Luoyang stops now, you probably won't be able to catch up."
Yan Mingkong's emotions didn't change. "Whether I can catch up or not is one thing. Whether I can catch up or not is another."
Chen Chuhua looked at him. "It's a big risk."
Yan Mingkong shook his head. "I have nothing to lose."
"Then let's wait for the final moment to come." Chen Chuhua nodded.
Su Ye looked left and right. She suddenly didn't understand.
But he quickly put his curiosity to the back of his mind and asked Chen Chuhua to teach him.
In the end, he secluded himself in the snow valley and prepared to break through to the twentieth level of martial arts.
…
In the Red Dust World, Chen Luoyang sat in the main hall of Luoyang in the sky. He was lost in thought.
When he came back to his senses, he summoned Yu Qingniu, the head of the Green Bull Temple.
"Greetings, Supreme Master." Yu Qingniu bowed respectfully.
In Chen Luoyang's eyes, a light outlined the shape of a jade slip in the air. Then, the jade slip turned from illusory to real and fell in front of Yu Qingniu.
"Send this to Qingwei Realm and hand it to Fellow Daoist Qingwei," Chen Luoyang ordered.
Yu Qingniu took the jade slip and put it away. "As you command, Supreme Master."
After the other party left, Chen Luoyang summoned Su Wei. "Make a trip to the vast land of the Divine Prefecture. Ying Qingqing is currently accompanying Zhuo Qingxi there. Escort them to the Xihe Realm and deliver a letter for me to the Lord of Heaven and Qingqing."
Su Wei immediately accepted the order respectfully. "Yes, Your Majesty."
Chen Luoyang's eyes condensed into a second jade slip and handed it to Su Wei. Su Wei left the main hall, left Luoyang in the sky, and went to the Divine Land.
When he arrived at the island outside the Divine Land, he met Zhuo Qingxi and Ying Qingqing and expressed the purpose of his visit.
Ying Qingqing and Zhuo Qingxi were not surprised.
Previously, they went to Xihe Realm to settle the matter, but every few years, they would return to the Red Dust World and the Divine Land.
Now, they were just returning to Xihe Realm again.
In essence, they were acting as messengers.
It was just that not every letter had to pass through their hands. False and true.
And Su Wei was the person who escorted them through the void to the Red Dust World and Xihe Realm.
After achieving the realm of Martial Venerable, Su Wei could travel through the void independently and escort Ying Qingqing and Zhuo Qingxi.
In terms of martial arts cultivation, First Mister Su was no longer what he used to be.
Because of his temperament, he still did not like to fight with others, and he was not good at fighting. But now, he was a real Martial Venerable, and he had not reached the limit of his potential.
In the Divine Land, Su Wei operated his own force, and a red light flashed, faintly showing the image of the Candle Dragon. His eyes were dim and bright, like the alternation of day and night.
He took Ying Qingqing and Zhuo Qingxi, left the Divine Land, left the Red Dust World, and traveled through the void to Xihe Realm.
The red light flashed through the dark void of the universe.
At this time, a pair of eyes, as if opened in the universe, more dazzling than the stars, watched the red light streak through the void.
But immediately, a bright and pure sword light lit up on the other side, welcoming Su Wei and the others.
Seeing this, the pair of eyes disappeared in the universe.
Su Wei quickly arrived at Xihe Realm with Ying Qingqing and Zhuo Qingxi, and then went straight to the Tang Valley, straight to the Fusang Divine Tree.
Under the tree, Young Lord Tian Ling Qingqing was already waiting.
"Thank you, Mister Su." She nodded at Su Wei.
Su Wei bowed, "You are too kind."
Ling Qingqing said, "Mister Su, please come in and have a seat."
Su Wei did not decline, and together with Ying Qingqing and her granddaughter, followed Ling Qingqing into the lush leaves of the Fusang Divine Tree.
They walked all the way to the top of the tree, where Ling Yang waited with a smile.
Ying Qingqing walked to his side, and Su Wei presented the Jade Scroll.
The Heavenly Lord raised his eyebrows and took the Jade Scroll.
After a while, he fell into deep thought, and did not speak for a long time.
Ying Qingqing nodded at Young Lord Tian Ling Qingqing and left with Zhuo Qingxi.
Ling Qingqing returned after sending them off, and the Heavenly Lord handed the Jade Scroll to her.
"This …" After Ling Qingqing read the Jade Scroll, she could not suppress the shock on her face.
The Heavenly Lord looked thoughtful, "This is indeed unexpected."
Ling Qingqing calmed herself down, and after a long time, she asked, "What do you think, Big Brother?"
"It is not necessarily a bad thing," the Heavenly Lord said slowly, "However, the premise is that all of this is true."
Su Wei stood in front of the two Martial Gods of the Xihe Realm, not saying a word.
On this trip, he was only a messenger, an errand boy.
After a long silence, Ling Qingqing said, "I trust him."
The Heavenly Lord smiled, "You trust him, and I trust you."
After that, he wrote a letter and handed it to Su Wei, "Take it back to the Mortal Realm."
Su Wei bowed, "I will take my leave. Good luck to you."
He left the Xihe Realm and returned to the Mortal Realm.
At this time, the pair of eyes in the void of the universe opened again.
However, on the other side, a pair of eyes also opened in the universe of stars.
Chen Luoyang's eyes.
He looked at the other calmly.
During their eye contact, Su Wei safely returned to the Mortal Realm.
Chen Luoyang's eyes disappeared in the void, and so did the other.
Su Wei returned to Luoyang City in the sky, handed the Heavenly Lord Ling Yang's reply to Chen Luoyang, and then left.
Chen Luoyang sat alone in the main hall, reading the Heavenly Lord's reply.
He gently tapped his fingers on the armrest of the chair, and fell into deep thought, not speaking for a long time.
