Su Diandian froze the moment she heard Zhenming's voice.

Oh no, the person in question heard my nonsense.

She mechanically turned her neck, her face full of awkward smiles, "Master, would you believe me if I said I was talking nonsense?"

Zhenming nodded gently in response, "I believe you, I believe whatever Xiaodian says."

"Hehehe..." Su Diandian's lips twitched slightly, and she turned her head to glare at Chu Kuo.

Chu Kuo spread his hands innocently, "Eight babies in one pregnancy is definitely not possible, how many spirit stones would that require... ouch..."

Shut up!

Su Diandian silently lifted her foot and stomped on his instep.

Zhenming stepped into the room and reached out to stroke the top of her head: "It doesn't matter how many spirit stones you have..."

Su Diandian quickly moved aside and used both hands to grasp Zhenming's fair hand and place it towards Qinglan's lifeline.

"Master, you should check on the sect leader immediately; his condition doesn't seem good."

As she spoke, she quickly recounted what had happened in the spiritual realm.

Zhenming frowned and carefully examined Qinglan's condition.

"The giant tree bears fruit in the shape of a human, exactly like you?"

Xuanqing, who had just entered the room, suddenly spoke up, "There is a forbidden book from the Western magical world in the library. One of the pages has an illustration that is somewhat similar to what you described, Huohai."

Upon hearing this, Su Diandian's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked, "What does the book say?"

Xuan Qing shook his head: "The Eastern cultivation world and the Western magic world have been separated for thousands of years. The text in the forbidden book is obscure and difficult to understand, and no one can decipher it."

The Western magical world? Do they use English or Latin?

She happens to have some knowledge in both of these areas.

Su Diandian's eyes darted around. "Are there any forbidden books? Can I borrow them to take a look?"

"You scoundrel! Even I can't understand those forbidden books, let alone you."

As Xuanqing spoke, he walked toward Zhenming, "Third Elder, Fourth Elder, how is my brother?"

Chu Kuo quickly replied, "Don't worry, the sect leader's life is not in danger."

"but……"

Xuan Qing grew irritated. "But what?"

"The Immortal Supervisor election is in half a month... The Sect Master is one of the candidates," Chu Kuo replied, scratching the back of his head.

"Hmph." Xuan Qing snorted lightly, "A mere Immortal Supervisor is not worth it. Let Shan Yunting be arrogant for another twenty years, it's no big deal."

Su Diandian interrupted the two, "This is not the time to talk about these things, banned books, we are discussing banned books."

"Only by thoroughly investigating the tree deep within my mind can we safely retrieve the old fox."

I can't even imagine what would happen if the old fox stayed with that group of naked fruit people.

Su Diandian couldn't help but start imagining what it would be like for them to make love.

I can't accept it! I absolutely can't accept it!

"I already told you, you can't understand forbidden books." Xuan Qing glared at her. "You troublemaker, just stay put. I'll figure out the rest."

“Alright, then come with me to the Spirit Platform and try.” Su Diandian said, looking at Wuyue, “Wuyue, can you help me break open the Spirit Platform?”

Wuyue, who had just finished treatment, shook her head, indicating that she was powerless to help.

The high priest's abilities far surpassed his own.

A quarter of an hour later, Xuan Qing emerged from Su Diandian's spiritual platform in a fit of rage.

"Why can't I get in? How did my brother get in?"

"Hahahaha..." Su Diandian smiled coldly, arms crossed, "I thought you were so capable."

Xuan Qing tried to explain: "You troublemaker, I..."

"What do you mean, 'what do you mean'?" Su Diandian pouted at him. "The reason is very simple: the old fox is at the Nascent Soul stage, while you are at the Spirit Nascent Soul stage."

There is indeed a fundamental difference between the Nascent Soul stage and the Spirit Transformation stage.

Xuan Qing was speechless for a moment. Just as he was thinking of something to say back, Chu Kuo interrupted him again.

"Gentlemen, gentlemen, may I say something, please?"

Xuan Qing immediately fell silent. "Third Elder, you can say whatever you want."

Chu Kuo coughed lightly, "If we follow this elder's advice, we should first try to decipher the contents of that forbidden book."

"So, shall we go back to Xuancang Sect first?" he asked tentatively, looking at the two of them.

Su Diandian nodded without hesitation, "Let's set off for Xuancang Sect right away."

She refused to believe she couldn't understand those damn Western banned books.

Xuan Qing gritted his teeth and agreed.

After making his decision, Xuanqing took out a jade talisman.

"The spirit boat is too slow, let's use the teleportation array directly."

"Teleportation jade talisman?" Su Diandian raised her eyebrows slightly, her face clearly showing that she didn't understand.

Sang Huo, who was standing next to her, explained in a low voice: "Teleportation arrays consume a lot of spiritual energy and require a large number of spirit stones as array cores, so they are rarely used."

Upon hearing this, Su Diandian subconsciously glanced at Chu Kuo.

But Chu Kuo showed no sign of objection whatsoever.

Just as she was about to take out the spirit stones, she suddenly remembered that her storage bag was already stuffed full by that beautiful corpse sac.

Retrieving the spirit stone from under the corpse sac is quite difficult.

Su Diandian leaned over and poked Chu Kuo's arm: "Elder Chu, you're being unusually generous this time. The teleportation array must have cost a lot of spirit stones, right?"

"What?" Chu Kuo turned his head to look at her in surprise. "Shouldn't you be the one paying with spirit stones?"

Damn it!

Old Man Chu is indeed Old Man Chu; he never even considered spending spirit stones.

Sang Huo strode forward, "I have spirit stones."

As he spoke, he made a gesture as if to take out a spirit stone.

Su Diandian reached out to stop him, then looked up at Chu Kuo with a big smile: "Elder Chu, come, come, let's make a deal."

Chu Kuo clutched the storage bag tightly, glancing at her cautiously: "What are you discussing?"

"Let's discuss the ownership of those five spirit stone veins after my death."

Su Diandian winked at him, and sure enough, he happily jogged over.

Seeing Chu Kuo approach, Su Diandian immediately used vines to tie him up.

Chu Kuo tried to struggle, "What are you doing? Little Dian Dian, what are you doing?"

“Of course it is…” Su Diandian grabbed his storage bag, “Of course it is to see what your expression is after you have a massive hemorrhage.”

"Give it back to me, give it back to me!" Chu Kuo reached out his foot to hook the storage bag.

"Hehe... Huh? Can't open it?" Su Diandian tried to open the storage bag, but to no avail.

Chu Kuo said smugly, "My spirit stones aren't so easy to take."

"Little Dian Dian, hurry up and return the storage bag. For the sake of the sect leader, I am still willing to offer three... no, five spirit stones."

"Can't open it?" Su Diandian raised an eyebrow. "Brother Lei, blast it open."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Purple-Gold Thunder struck with lightning speed.

Chu Kuo's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets. "Ten! I'll offer ten spirit stones!"

He knew all too well the power of the Purple Gold Lightning; if it really struck, he didn't know if his barrier could withstand it.

Su Diandian ignored her and the purple-gold lightning struck the storage bag directly.

"boom!"

The storage bag is not responding.

Chu Kuo breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, then burst into triumphant laughter, "This elder's barrier isn't so easy to open..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Xuanqing take his storage bag and easily pull out spirit stones.

Xuan Qing gave Su Diandian a wink, then smiled at Chu Kuo and said, "Third Elder, thank you."
