On the top of Taixuan Peak, Chen Bailou and Danyun Zhenren sat opposite each other in the pavilion, and the black and white pieces were placed. However, the chess game was not tense, but rather had a sense of insincere perfunctory.
"I've been feeling recently that something's about to happen. It's a very ominous feeling." Zhenren Danyun's face was filled with deep worry.
"First, Zong Baiye slew the immortal and entered the holy way. Then the evil spirit was born, and Li Jiu was reborn. Now, the great demon has emerged from Canglan and entered our Taixuan Sect. I can no longer understand all these things."
Chen Bailou's face was as dark as the abyss, and he remained silent.
"Northern Continent has been peaceful for a thousand years, but it seems the peace has come to an end..."
Zhenren Danyun picked up a white piece and placed it on the chessboard. Faced with the dilemma vaguely formed by the black pieces, he had no intention of playing chess and was already on the verge of defeat.
"Junior brother, what are you thinking?" Danyun felt a little annoyed when he saw Chen Bailou remained silent.
Chen Bailou paused for a long time, then suddenly lifted a piece and dropped it onto the chessboard. A dormant black dragon suddenly stretched out its head, opened its two inky black eyes, and the light from its pupils went straight into Tianyuan.
"After a thousand years of peace, there must be some changes. This is what you and I expected."
"But what I didn't expect was that Zong Baiye took this step ahead of time."
Danyun looked at Chen Bailou, frowning as he thought about what he said.
"As for Li Jiuzhong... it's indeed a bit unexpected, but it's not irrelevant to the overall situation. He was unable to promote the Holy Path a thousand years ago, and the emergence of the Holy Path a thousand years later has nothing to do with him."
“It’s just the general trend.”
As Chen Bailou spoke, a smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth, like a mockery, like a sarcasm.
Danyun was a little dazed.
"What about you? Do you hope that the practitioners of Beizhou will enter the immortal sect or the holy path?" Dan Yun asked a question he had always wanted to ask.
The appearance of the informant in Chaoyang City and the results indicated by various signs all point to the anti-immortal action launched by Li Jiuzhong a thousand years ago. However, the rebellious act a thousand years ago now makes people think deeply.
Combined with the information passed down by Junior Brother Zhang Hengzhi, one can survive the tribulation but cannot ascend to heaven.
These words have caused Dan Yunzui to have great doubts about the immortal path he has been pursuing.
Is becoming an immortal the right path?
Chen Bailou was silent for a while, then slowly looked up into the depths of the sky. A trace of imperceptible fanaticism flashed in the depths of his eyes.
"I have my own mission!"
"Play chess, you're going to lose!"
Danyun's doubts came to nothing.
However, Chen Bailou's last words made Danyun frown.
What exactly is the mission he just mentioned?
At the entrance of the mountain path, a young man in a moon-white robe appeared and walked a few steps outside the pavilion.
Li Changan's breathing became a little rapid, and he looked at the two of them with a serious expression, "Master, Senior Brother Danyun, I have something to ask you."
Chen Bailou didn't say anything. Danyun raised his head and looked at Li Changan, "What's wrong?"
Li Changan pursed his lips and said, "I want to know, if I really confront Beitianmen, will the headmaster come forward to help me?"
Chen Bailou paused.
Dan Yun was anxious. "What on earth do you want to do? It's rare for the five great holy places in Northern Continent to maintain the current peace. What's wrong with you?"
"Moreover, Beitianmen's strength is far greater than mine, Taixuan. They have five great cultivators at the Hedao realm alone. What can you use to fight them?"
Li Changan's face was gloomy. "I just want to ask, if one of my Nine Peaks disciples were about to die at Beitianmen, would you, Master, save him or not?"
Dan Yun opened his mouth, realizing that the situation was a bit serious. "What's going on, you bastard, can you explain it clearly?"
Li Changan gritted his teeth and said, "Old Seven was threatened and went to Beitianmen alone. His life or death is uncertain. I have to go and save him!"
"Seventh Brother, that monkey? Damn it, damn it..." Dan Yun stood up angrily, "I knew that brat would cause trouble outside. Well, he went straight to Beitianmen..."
Li Changan stared at Chen Bailou without saying a word. Almost half an incense stick of time had passed, but he still didn't get a response from Chen Bailou.
"I see!"
Li Changan turned and left.
Danyun followed behind, looking anxious. "What on earth do you want to do? Do you think you can rescue the monkey if you go to Beitianmen?"
Li Changan turned around and said solemnly, "I'm not sure if I can save Old Seven, so I went to Taixuan Peak. But I'm sure that if I stay at Xiaoqiong Peak, I won't be able to save him."
After saying this, he went down Taixuan Peak without hesitation.
Dan Yun ran back to the pavilion, his face anxious. "Junior Brother, you have to stop Li Changan. We can't let him go to his death. Over the years, Beitianmen has been targeting Taixuan, trying to expel him from the ranks of the Holy Land. Li Changan's move has undoubtedly given them a handle. Moreover, with his strength, how is he any different from going to his death?"
Chen Bailou raised his head and looked directly at Danyun. There was no familiar warmth in his eyes, but an indifference that made his heart palpitate.
"I said, I have my own mission."
Danyun stared at Chen Bailou in a daze, all his complaints choked in his chest and he could no longer utter a word.
…
After Li Changan descended Taixuan Peak, he turned around and went up Cangming Peak.
There are only two great practitioners in the Hedao realm in the entire Taixuan. Besides Chen Bailou, the other one is Tang Guang.
Since Chen Bailou doesn't care, he can only ask Tang Guang for help.
If Tang Guang agrees to help, then the chances of rescuing Lao Qi will be greater.
As long as the monkey can be rescued, what does it matter if he publicly supports Cangming Peak at the Chengjian Conference?
It doesn’t matter!
But what disappointed him was that he was stopped by Han Mingjun before he even reached Cangming Peak.
