He paused for a moment.

Zhunti continued, "It's a good thing for Styx, letting him join the sect like that, he's so happy!"

Jieyin chimed in, "He's just a servant. Once we find that senior, we can become his disciples. Even if we become his servants, he can't compare to us!"

Upon hearing this,

Zhunti agreed, saying, "Senior Brother's insight is indeed brilliant!"

Jieyin nodded with a smile, "The most urgent thing now is to find the senior as soon as possible. We can't just keep focusing on Tongtian's side; we have to take action ourselves. If we are sincere, the senior might take the initiative to see us!"

“Absolutely! From this day forward, we shall traverse the primordial wilderness in search of that senior!” Zhunti nodded in agreement.

The guide replied, "Alright!"

...

at the same time,

Laozi, Yuanshi Tianzun, and Nuwa each returned to their respective Daoist temples.

They all felt somewhat embarrassed; that old bastard Styx would laugh them to death!

Of course, besides feeling a little ashamed, he was actually a little envious of that old man Styx. Although he was a servant, as long as Mosquito Taoist gave him some pointers, it wouldn't be long before that old man Styx was able to ride on their heads!

This made them somewhat irritated, and their thoughts coincided with those of Zhunti and Jieyin!

...

at the same time,

On the East China Sea,

Ao Tingxin felt the time was right. She planned to rule the four seas and then have them all join the Jie Sect. Those dragons in the four seas who had not yet gone astray would be killed, suppressed, or enslaved. If there were any pure and good ones left, she would pass on some Taoist teachings to them so they could cultivate.

Subsequently,

Ao Tingxin entered the East Sea and ordered the other three Dragon Kings to come and pay their respects.
