Chapter 495 Goodbye, Mr.
Faced with their doubts, the owner of the ruins refused to say more, while the senior on the other side looked like he knew nothing.
It seems that each of her masters had his own worthless qualities.
Tao Zi was distracted for a moment, but quickly regained her composure and changed her question, asking, "Was his past life related to the Tiandao Sect?"
Hearing this, the owner of the ruins laughed and said, "How could they be related? Tian Dao Sect...don't ask. No matter how hard you try, you won't be able to guess his origins, and I can't tell you either."
Seeing that the owner of the ruins hesitated to speak, she asked again: "You really can't say it?"
"The secret cannot be revealed. This matter is different from the remains of the imperial daughter. It has nothing to do with you. Don't ask me."
She put on a helpless look, sighed, and said, "As compensation, can I ask you something else?"
The owner of the ruins was about to agree, but stopped himself and said with a smile: "Aren't you trying to trick me? I didn't agree to tell you these things, so how can there be any compensation?"
Seeing that he was not fooled, Tao Zi sighed again.
Cheng Wuchou said gently, "Senior, please don't blame me. It's just that the Tiandao Sect has been condoning the actions of the Minglan Sect, and it is closely related to the Heavenly Dao, so Ah Zi has to pay attention."
The owner of the ruins looked at him, and suddenly exclaimed, "The aura on you is familiar."
He frowned in confusion and said, "This should be the first time I meet you, Senior."
The owner of the ruins looked at him carefully, his smile deepening. "I remembered someone. You bear some resemblance to him."
Cheng Wuchou's heartbeat quickened, but his expression remained unchanged, only showing a hint of curiosity. He asked, "Excuse me, Senior, who is that?"
"The last imperial teacher of the royal family."
Tao Zi's face was calm, as if nothing had happened.
Cheng Wuchou laughed and said, "Maybe they look similar."
The owner of the ruins looked at him with a smile, without saying a word.
He changed the subject: "I heard that the royal family and the immortal cultivation sects are not on good terms, but now it seems that the senior knows the royal family very well and even has a good relationship with them."
The owner of the ruins sighed, then asked, "Where did you hear that?"
"That's what everyone thinks."
The owner of the ruins asked in surprise, "Really?"
He nodded sincerely, "Who doesn't know about the Tiandao Sect's pursuit of the royal family members back then?"
The senior glanced at Cheng Wuchou. He was bullying the owner of the ruins because he didn't know what was happening in the outside world.
But it had nothing to do with him.
The senior stood there with a smile on his face, watching Cheng Wuchou betray his former friend.
The owner of the ruins frowned and said, "The Tiandao Sect is hunting down the royal family? There's also this matter?"
The senior nodded in agreement and said seriously, "I've been traveling around outside for these years and have heard some of this."
He asked directly, "Who founded the Tiandao Sect?"
Cheng Wuchou thought for a long time before slowly spitting out three names.
The owner of the ruins thought about it for a long time with a puzzled look on his face, and finally managed to remember their origins. He said, "So they are the ones who survived to the end. No wonder they are hunting down the royal family."
Tao Zi said, "From what you said, Senior, the immortal sects are on good terms with the royal family, but these people don't like the royal family?"
"That's not the case." The owner of the ruins paused before continuing, "Whether it's a sect of immortal cultivation or the imperial army, their origins are all mortals. It's not uncommon for one brother to be in the imperial army and the other in a sect of immortal cultivation. It can't be simply described as friendship or enmity. It all depends on the situation."
Tao Zi realized it, and summed it up in two words: "Benefits."
"That's right. The world of immortal cultivation isn't monolithic." The owner of the ruins said with a slightly nostalgic smile, "Back then, the Imperial Princess was on good terms with the Sword Immortal, but that didn't stop her from ordering the elimination of certain cultivators in front of the Sword Immortal."
Tao Zi brought the topic back to the topic: "Those three people?"
"They are either trash or villains. They grew up with the support of a large sect. Apart from their background and their barely decent cultivation, they have nothing else to offer. Naturally, they are terrified of the royal family. How could they not hunt them down and kill them all?"
Cheng Wuchou frowned and said, "How is it possible that only these people survived?"
The owner of the ruins was silent for a long time before he sighed softly.
At this time, the senior stepped forward and said, "During that great battle, all the cultivators with strength and determination stood at the front of the battlefield, especially those who were on good terms with the royal family. They even spared no effort to protect the mortals."
The owner of the ruins recalled the great battle and said, "It's not that all those who survived were this type of people, but rather that their personalities guaranteed their survival to the greatest extent possible. Believe me, if those people were hunting down the royal family, they would have done it quietly. Otherwise, at least one or two of the other cultivators would have taken action, not just stood by and watched."
Tao Zi listened to them quietly, occasionally glancing at her brother out of the corner of her eyes. She didn't care much about these things, but her brother seemed to care a lot.
Cheng Wuchou was skeptical about these words, but too much time had passed, so long that only those who were still alive knew the truth of that year.
After coming out of the Xuyan ruins, Cheng Wuchou sent a message to the master through Cheng Luo.
Tao Zi looked at his silence and said hesitantly, "Brother, do you hate the immortal cultivation sect back then so much?"
Cheng Wuchou rubbed his forehead, his expression returned to normal, and said: "No, I just hate the Tiandao Sect. Let's not talk about this anymore, let's go directly to the Xujia Sect. The master will definitely meet us, so we should do this as soon as possible."
She nodded in agreement.
As soon as they arrived at the Xujiamen's sphere of influence, the people who came to pick them up came.
The group was extremely careful on the road, so careful that it made Tao Zi feel uneasy.
Cheng Wuchou noticed her emotions and silently patted her shoulder, telling her to be at ease.
She came to the place where she first met her husband. Everything was normal. The only difference was that her husband's hair had turned white.
Tao Zi's heart tightened and he bowed in silence.
The gentleman smiled and said, "That's not necessary. Get up."
Cheng Wuchou stepped forward to help Tao Zi up. Looking at the master's appearance, his eyes felt a little sore. Three thousand years had passed and the master's hair had not turned white, but... in the final analysis, it was him and A Zi who had implicated the master.
"How are you now, sir?"
The master smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's nothing serious. You'll recover after a while of recuperation. Time is short now, so let's talk about the matter first. Why are you suddenly asking about the Emperor's daughter's ruins?"
Cheng Wuchou bowed and told the truth.
"Is the strangeness of the Heavenly Dao related to the Imperial Daughter's Ruins?" The gentleman was silent for a long time. When they couldn't help but ask, he continued, "I do have a way to open the Imperial Daughter's Ruins, but I need a key."
"I have."
Tao Zi took out the three necklaces.
The gentleman stared at the silver and wood necklace in her hand and suddenly stood up: "Where did you get this necklace?"
Everyone was shocked by the gentleman's reaction.
Not to mention Tao Zi, even Cheng Wuchou had never seen the master behave so mischievously.
