"He might be looking for the Revered One's treasure."
Twilight Mist said in a low voice, "He may have killed Master for this reason."
Shen Herong straightened his clothes. "It's possible. But if that's the case, why hasn't he come to you before?"
Twilight Mist didn't know about this, and it was useless to look for her.
But the question was, how did he know?
"I don't know." Twilight Mist shook her head. She was also puzzled and even doubted her previous guess.
Shen Herong said, "It seems that we can only find the answer after we find him. If he's really looking for that thing, we can find it first and wait for him."
As they spoke, Zhang Dongyun, Shen Herong, and Twilight Mist's gazes all fell on Chen Chaoyan.
Compared to Mr. Fang Cun, they had a huge advantage.
The girl was well aware of her current situation.
But at this moment, being stared at by Zhang Dongyun and the others still made her want to turn around and run away.
"In that case, let's find the thing first."
Zhang Dongyun waved his hand. A dark purple, almost black nine-petaled spiritual flower floated in front of Shen Herong and Twilight Mist.
Twilight Mist was stunned. "This … this is the Amazing Fate Flower?"
Zhang Dongyun nodded. "That's right."
"But, isn't it said that the Evil Emperor Lake is extinct?" Twilight Mist was even more surprised.
Shen Herong, who was standing beside her, didn't seem surprised. "Just because the Evil Emperor Lake is extinct doesn't mean that Chang 'an doesn't exist. Just because it was extinct in the past doesn't mean that it's extinct now.
As long as there's a grass seed or even a withered branch, Big Brother can make the extinct spiritual flowers and spiritual herbs reappear in the world. "
There were many similar rare spiritual herbs in Chang 'an.
Shen Herong wasn't surprised by this.
After being stunned, Twilight Mist gradually calmed down. But when she looked at Zhang Dongyun, she had a different feeling in her heart.
Although she had cultivated Daoist techniques to such a level, she was still a plant demon after all. It was inevitable that she would have some feelings about this.
Zhang Dongyun waved his hand. "How do you use it? You can try it out. There are plenty of things here, so there's no need to worry about wasting them."
He guessed that Mister Fang Cun was using this spirit flower to find something, but Qiongqi and Juehuang naturally didn't know how to use it.
This required Shen Herong and Twilight Mist to slowly test it out.
Especially Shen Herong. Like the other party, he majored in Confucianism and minored in Taoism. Perhaps he could capture Mister Fang Cun's train of thought in this aspect.
"Little Sister will give it a try." Shen Herong nodded and put away the Amazing Fate Flower.
She and Twilight Mist were about to take Chen Chaoyan with them, but Zhang Dongyun suddenly raised his hand and said, "Twelfth Sister, please stay for a while."
Shen Herong stopped in her tracks, somewhat surprised.
Twilight Mist and Chen Chaoyan were tactful and took their leave.
When only he and Shen Herong were left in the hall, Zhang Dongyun waved his hand in the air.
A light image appeared in the air, and Ao Kong's voice could be heard from it.
"Boss, you should already know about Eighth Sister's matter. What do you think about it?"
His voice was low, and his tone was grave. It didn't sound like Ao Kong at all.
When Shen Herong heard this, she looked puzzled. "What happened to Eighth Sister?"
"She's not Eighth Sister at all!" Ao Kong's voice suddenly became louder.
Shen Herong immediately shut up. He took a deep breath and looked at Zhang Dongyun.
"Twelfth Sister just came back. You should tell her first." Zhang Dongyun's tone was very calm.
"She's Zong Tianxuan, who ranks second in the Big Dipper. Her body was destroyed, and she took over Eighth Sister's soul and body!" Ao Kong's voice sounded like a volcano that was about to erupt.
Shen Herong's expression gradually returned to normal. He asked calmly, "Was she the one who killed Eighth Sister?"
Ao Kong said with hatred, "She said that Eighth Sister sacrificed herself to save her life. Who knows …"
Before he could finish, Zhang Dongyun interrupted him. "It's true."
Ao Kong was stunned. "… Boss?"
"She can't lie to me," Zhang Dongyun said calmly.
But the certainty in his words made Ao Kong speechless for a moment.
Shen Herong's gaze became a little warmer. "I remember that the Big Dipper is divided by internal strife. One side has five people, while the other side only has two including Eighth Sister. Zong Tianxuan seems to be one of them?"
Zhang Dongyun nodded. "That's right."
Ao Kong came back to his senses. A muffled groan came from the light image.
"In other words, except for the fact that she's Zong Tianxuan and not Eighth Sister, everything else is true?" Shen Herong asked softly. "Including the battle where they sealed Yu Tianquan?"
Zhang Dongyun said, "That's right."
Shen Herong repeated as if to confirm.
"Eighth Sister was not a traitor during the incident in the Immortals.
Zong Tianxuan was her good friend.
She willingly sacrificed herself to save Zong Tianxuan? "
Zhang Dongyun did not say anything else, but he undoubtedly confirmed the other party's statement.
Shen Herong closed his eyes and looked up at the sky.
An uncontrollable sadness appeared on the young girl's face. "Eighth Sister is no longer here …"
"Eighth Sister died to save her …"
Ao Kong's voice came from the light image.
But he was not as confident as before.
Yu Tianquan came to kill Zong Tianxuan. If not for that, Chu Yaoguang would not have met him.
But it was also Zong Tianxuan who used all her strength to seal Yu Tianquan and save Chu Yaoguang's life.
But Chu Yaoguang sacrificed himself to save her Second Senior Sister.
Ao Kong could not say anything about Chu Yaoguang's decision.
But his heart was still filled with anger and sadness. Besides Yu Tianquan, his anger was also directed at Zong Tianxuan. Even if he knew that if Chu Yaoguang was still alive, he would not want him to do this.
"Seventh Sister also knows, but she did not say a word." Ao Kong said in a muffled voice. "This is not like her."
Su Po was more dedicated to the Way of the Sword than Gu Pu and Han Feiyu.
But he was not a person without warmth.
On the contrary, his temperament was more gentle than many people.
His current state was indeed not like him.
"If Eighth Sister treated her as family, then I would do the same," Shen Herong said quietly.
She was the opposite of Su Po.
As a Martial Grandmaster of the Confucian School, she was gentle and did not show anger.
But to many people, she was even colder than Su Po, who used a sharp sword.
But to Shen Herong, there were also exceptions.
Zhang Dongyun's palm swiped in the air again.
Then, a second light image appeared.
Su Po's voice came from the light image. "Twelfth Sister is right. I lost my composure just now and let Eighth Sister down. Although I have no last words, I believe that Eighth Sister wants us to get along with Miss Zong. If we can help her, we will."
His voice passed through Invincible City and into Ao Kong's ears.
"Good, good, good!" Ao Kong said hatefully. "You are all good people. I am the evil one!"
Shen Herong said, "Eleventh Brother, I am not forcing you to treat her well. But we are all in Chang 'an now. At least we should not fight among ourselves. I think that is not what Eighth Sister wants to see."
More than thirty years ago, when the Twelve Kings of Hell were running amok together, their internal relationships were also different. They often had different views on the same matter.
Shen Herong would never force Ao Kong and the others to be like her, but at least in the general direction, they could not be completely opposite.
Ao Kong seemed to be taking a deep breath.
After a long time, he finally spoke again. "Is she really one of us?"
"Yes." Zhang Dongyun's tone was unquestionable.
Ao Kong fell silent again.
After a long time, he said, "Fine. For Eighth Brother's sake, I will not trouble her!"
At this time, another voice came from the light image projected by the seal on Ao Kong's forehead.
"Thank you, Mr. Ming, Mr. Su, Mr. Shen, and Mr. Ao. I am ashamed to face Junior Sister. I can only repay you with the rest of my life. I will do my best to help her Jin Lan siblings and help Chang 'an."
This voice came from the woman called Lin Xiujun in this life.
She was the Chu Yaoguang in everyone's impression of her. Now, she was Zong Tianxuan.
The light image changed. It seemed that Ao Kong turned his head and looked to the side.
Then, the tall woman appeared in front of Zhang Dongyun and Shen Herong.
"Miss Zong, you don't have to be so polite. We help each other." Su Po's voice came from the other side.
His tone was as gentle as before, but it was no longer as intimate and polite as before.
It was also a sign of alienation.
Shen Herong said, "Forgive me for not treating you as Eighth Sister. However, I hope that as we get to know each other better in the future, we can also become good friends."
Zong Tianxuan sighed softly. "That is also my wish."
Zhang Dongyun quietly looked at the other party's face in the light projection.
The smile of Chu Yaoguang in the past flashed by.
Slowly, Zhang Dongyun said, "After today, the one who died at the bottom of the sea is still Zong Tianxuan. The one in Chang 'an now is still Chu Yaoguang."
Zong Tianxuan said, "I understand … Thank you."
Ao Kong's voice came from the light image. "Let her live in Eighth Sister's place? I don't think she can.
However, since it's your decision, I won't object. Everyone knows it. But I don't want to play along with her. I won't say anything in front of outsiders. "
Shen Herong repeated Zhang Dongyun's words. "After today, there will be no Zong Tianxuan in this world, only Chu Yaoguang."
Su Po fell silent and didn't say anything.
Zhang Dongyun rose to his feet from the throne above.
"We have to be clear about who is our enemy and who is our friend."
He said lightly, "Eighth Sister's matter has nothing to do with Zong Tianxuan."
"Yu Tianquan …" Ao Kong said almost word by word.
Su Po said again, "Big Brother is right. I'll go to Aparagodaniya and ask Yu Tianquan to come out."
Previously, they thought that Zong Tianxuan was the one who died in the battle with Yu Tianquan. Therefore, they didn't hate Yu Tianquan and only saw him as an obstacle.
They didn't have any friendship with Zong Tianxuan. At most, they loved her because of Chu Yaoguang.
If Chu Yaoguang asked for help and asked them to avenge Zong Tianxuan, they wouldn't refuse.
If Chu Yaoguang didn't ask, it would be hard for them to kill Yu Tianquan for revenge.
But now that they knew the truth, the situation was different.
Chu Yaoguang was the one who died from serious injuries after the battle with Yu Tianquan!
It was no longer an insignificant person.
If he didn't take revenge for this, he wouldn't be human!
"Damn it, we can't run," Zhang Dongyun said.
Su Po objected to him this time. "Big Brother is in seclusion and can't do anything. Let me try …"
Just as he said this, his voice suddenly paused.
"There's a big commotion in the North Continent."
The commotion was huge, and the other party seemed to be doing it on purpose.
It was as if a star had fallen from the sky and hit the ground.
It was coming from the North Continent in the north.
Su Po sensed it carefully and vaguely felt a sense of familiarity …
With such an earth-shattering commotion, the other party's cultivation and strength were definitely extremely high.
A name flashed across Su Po's mind.
In Chang 'an City's Daming Palace, Zhang Dongyun and Shen Herong said in unison.
"Lei Han!"
Lei Han, the Demonic Dragon Emperor who had disappeared from seclusion and Su Po couldn't find him even after searching the entire North Continent, had come out of seclusion.
