At the bottom of the sea.
Gu Xuan held his chin as he looked at the East Sea Dragon Palace in front of him. His eyes were filled with pity.
The Holy Elder was too unscrupulous.
He had painstakingly helped her kill her sworn enemy and take back the East Sea Dragon Palace. Logically speaking, even if she gave him half of the treasures in the Dragon Palace, it would not be too much, right?
However, he had only wanted to take a look, but the Holy Elder had rejected him so straightforwardly.
Not to mention that he had rejected her. Given his shamelessness, he should not have rejected her.
Unfortunately, the Holy Elder had used some unknown means to summon a ray of light and sent him out of the East Sea Dragon Palace.
It was said that people's hearts were not what they used to be. As a True Dragon, the Holy Elder's heart was not what it used to be.
Gu Xuan sighed and lowered his head to look at the Green Flood Dragon in his collar.
The Green Flood Dragon was the one who had gained the most from this trip to the Dragon Palace.
He was lucky enough to obtain the True Dragon's Blood Essence and could slowly evolve from a flood dragon to a dragon. If he had the chance to leap through the Dragon Gate, the process could be sped up.
Gu Xuan was a little envious of the Green Flood Dragon's luck.
"Entering the Dragon Palace and returning empty-handed. What a failure."
The Holy Elder's cold face flashed across Gu Xuan's mind.
Then, Gu Xuan's view moved down in his mind.
The scene of the Holy Elder wearing a seductive undergarment began to linger in Gu Xuan's mind.
"It doesn't seem like a failure …"
Gu Xuan muttered.
"What failure?"
A spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared. The gate of the East Sea Dragon Palace suddenly opened. The Holy Elder walked out slowly and stared at Gu Xuan suspiciously.
Gu Xuan said seriously, "As a person, one should not be greedy. Otherwise, one will suffer a crushing defeat like Jiao Mei!"
A trace of sadness flashed across the Holy Elder's eyes when she heard Jiao Mei's name.
"Back then, when I saved her, she was not like this.
Back then, she was very innocent. The reason why she became like this, I also have an unshirkable responsibility.
Actually, I do not miss the position of the Holy Elder.
I originally wanted to pass this position to her after she had completely evolved into a True Dragon.
Unfortunately … "
Gu Xuan did not want to listen to the Holy Elder's long-winded speech and quickly stopped her.
"Alright, let's talk about these details later.
More importantly, I can sense that my disciples are in danger. I think that I should rush over to the Saint 3-dan Ascension Hall as soon as possible.
You'll have to give me the fragment of heaven's will and the method to reach Saint 2-dan as soon as possible! "
The Holy Elder rolled his eyes at Gu Xuan. He had finally found someone he could confide in, but it turned out to be such a fool.
What disciples being in danger? That was clearly an excuse!
The Holy Elder snorted and waved his hand. A beam of light shot towards the East Sea Dragon Palace.
The entire sea region trembled. The East Sea Dragon Palace rapidly shrank until it was only the size of a thumb. The Holy Elder held it in his palm.
"Let's return to the Saint Island first!"
The Holy Elder didn't even look at Gu Xuan. He flew out of the sea and headed for the Saint Island.
Gu Xuan held his chin and began to ponder again.
"A woman's heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea! Did I offend her again? No? "
At the peak of the Saint Island.
A group of core higher-ups were gathered in a large hall.
Their hearts were filled with worry.
At the center of the hall was a transparent jade box.
Inside the box was a translucent jade token.
This was the Holy Elder's life token.
Everyone's gaze was focused on the life token.
If anything happened to the Holy Elder, the life token would shatter.
That was something they didn't want to see.
In truth, they didn't care whether the Holy Elder could kill the Phantom Jiao or not.
Regardless of whether the Phantom Jiao died or not, as long as the Holy Elder didn't die, everything would be fine.
They would eventually find a way to deal with the Phantom Jiao.
Once the Holy Elder died, everything would be over.
"Sigh, I think that the Holy Elder shouldn't have gone to deal with the Phantom Jiao.
Even though Gu Xuan is helping her, the sea isn't her home ground. It's too dangerous.
Do you think that the Holy Elder will suddenly change her mind and return instead of dealing with the Phantom Jiao? "
One of the elders sighed.
"Stop dreaming. Everyone knows the Holy Elder's personality.
Once she has decided on something, even eight horses won't be able to pull her back.
It's just that it's too torturous.
It'll take at least half a month for the results to come out. "
The other old man shook his head.
However, just as he finished speaking, someone suddenly exclaimed in surprise.
"The Holy Elder is back!"
"Stop dreaming. It hasn't even been half a day and you can't hold on anymore. Did you fall asleep?"
"No, she's really back! Look outside the hall … "
"Look my ass! You … Ah, it's really the Holy Elder! "
Two quarreling voices attracted everyone's attention.
One by one, the old men looked out of the hall.
Sure enough, the Holy Elder walked into the hall with a gloomy face.
Behind her followed Gu Xuan, who seemed to be disappointed.
The hearts of the core elders all skipped a beat.
From the Holy Elder's expression, it seemed that she hadn't found the Phantom Jiao at all!
Otherwise, she wouldn't have returned so quickly.
However, it was a good thing that she hadn't been found!
"Holy Elder, you've finally thought it through.
Why do we have to take the initiative to attack?
We just have to arrange everything and wait for the Phantom Jiao to take the bait. There are only a few months left until the Grand Competition. She will definitely launch a sneak attack. When that time comes … "
An old man walked up behind the Holy Elder and followed closely behind, trying to persuade the Holy Elder.
The Holy Elder turned his head and stared at the old man, saying indifferently,
"The Phantom Jiao is already dead."
At this moment, the entire hall became so silent that one could hear a pin drop!
After a long while, the Elder behind Holy Elder trembled and confirmed, "That's right."
"The Phantom Jiao is really … really …"
Gu Xuan shook his head. This old man was so old that he couldn't even speak properly. He said impatiently.
"The Phantom Jiao is really dead.
Even the East Sea Dragon Palace was taken back by the Holy Elder. "
When the core elders heard Gu Xuan's words, they all trembled with excitement.
Now, they finally believed it!
After a while, cheers erupted from the peak of the Holy Island.
Gu Xuan frowned and the corners of his mouth twitched.
A bunch of old men. How could they be so childish? Not only were they wailing like ghosts and howling like wolves, some of them were even crying with snot and tears. What the hell was this?
"Come with me."
The Holy Elder said to Gu Xuan and walked toward the long corridor at the side of the hall.
Gu Xuan followed closely behind.
He knew that the highlight was coming!
Seeing Gu Xuan follow the Holy Elder into the corridor, the old men slowly stopped cheering.
Their faces were solemn.
Everyone knew what the Holy Elder had promised Gu Xuan.
Now, it was time for the Holy Elder to fulfill his promise.
However, the first place on the Mortal Ranking needed to be recognized by the Heavenly Way.
