"Why are you two worrying so much? You're just being nosy!"
After saying that, the Tongtian Sect Leader waved enthusiastically at Lu Ya, a playful look on his face, and teased, "Haha, Brother Lu, it's been a full ten thousand years since we last met!"
"But look at you now, you're still as dashing and debonair as ever!"
"Tell me quickly, brother, where have you been having a good time all these ten thousand years? Have you been chasing after women and forgetting all your troubles?"
Upon hearing Tongtian Jiaozhu's joking remark...
Lu Ya couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle, "Fellow Daoist Tongtian, please stop teasing me!"
"All I've done in the past ten thousand years is get angry at certain people and want to travel around and clear my head."
Speaking of which...
Lu Ya's words were clearly pointed and loaded with veiled barbs.
Just then, Laozi, who had been meditating in the void with his eyes closed, seemingly blending into his surroundings, suddenly opened his eyes.
His deep, abyss-like eyes gazed directly at Lu Ya not far away, a gentle smile on his face, and he slowly said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, it has been a full ten thousand years since we last met."
"Judging from the flow of your aura, your cultivation has clearly improved a lot. You must have had many fortuitous encounters in the past ten thousand years, right?"
Upon hearing Laozi's words, Lu Ya quickly stepped forward.
He bowed deeply to Laozi and replied humbly and politely, "Brother Taiqing, you flatter me."
"I have only made some minor gains. How can I compare to a great master like you, senior brother, who has already entered the Heavenly Realm?"
After saying this, he bowed to Laozi again.
It expresses sincere respect for them.
Upon hearing this, Laozi simply waved his hand gently.
Then he shook his head slightly and sighed, "Alas... time waits for no one! I used to be full of vigor, but now I'm getting older and my energy is not what it used to be."
"Compared to you energetic young people, I am truly ashamed of myself!"
Lu Ya quickly interjected, "Senior Brother Taiqing, please don't say that."
"Look at you, you still have white hair and a youthful face, with the air of an immortal, and you can even live as long as heaven and earth, so how can you talk about being 'old'?"
The Supreme Lord Lao was delighted by Lu Ya's words and burst into laughter.
He stroked his long beard with his hand and said loudly, "Hahaha... What a smooth talker!"
"Fellow Daoist Lu, it's been ten thousand years! Your words have become more and more charming!"
For a moment, the whole scene was filled with a joyful and happy atmosphere.
However, on the other side of this laughter and joy...
However, the Primordial Celestial Venerable saw all of this.
Seeing that Lu Ya was only focused on exchanging pleasantries with Laozi and completely ignored his presence, he realized that Lu Ya was completely oblivious to his existence.
The expression on Yuanshi Tianzun's face darkened slightly.
"This Lu Ya is far too ignorant of the rules!"
"Does he really think that just because he's got Senior Brother Taiqing as his backer, he can disregard me?"
Thinking of this.
A barely perceptible cold glint flashed in the eyes of the Primordial Celestial Venerable.
