Nalan Jingyue listened to her words patiently, then pondered for a moment before slowly speaking, "I don't think you need to overthink it. Although this matter reveals a strangeness, there are still more powerful people to support it even if the sky falls. What we should do most right now is to practice hard and improve our strength."
"You have a point. I was being overly picky. Our primary goal right now is to improve our strength."
Seeing that she seemed to have figured it out, Nalan Jingyue didn't say anything else. The two smiled at each other, and a tacit understanding emerged.
In the following time, Nalan Jingyue did not disturb Su Yao again, and Su Yao was concentrating on helping Senior Aotian nourish his soul.
When the two of them came out of the room, Ning Jing and Xu Fuyi had been waiting outside for a long time, and Senior Aotian also flew out.
Aotian's soul, nourished by the Soul-Calming Banner, had become noticeably more solid than before. Ning Jing couldn't help but congratulate him, "Senior, congratulations on your soul becoming even more solid."
"Hahaha, the little girl can talk, thanks to you guys. Otherwise, I might still be trapped in the Dragon Ball Tomb. I wouldn't be able to see my two lovely grandchildren."
Aotian was obviously in a good mood. After saying this, he ignored everyone else and flew straight towards his two lovely grandchildren. He wanted to quickly develop a relationship with his lovely grandchildren.
Therefore, Su Yao and the other three ignored the three dragons and just reminded them not to cause trouble in the sect. Then they hurriedly flew towards the sect's meeting hall.
When the four of them just appeared in the meeting hall, they found that there were already several people sitting in the hall. Gu Changfeng and the four elders were also there, and a white-haired old man was sitting in the main seat.
This old man was none other than Mr. Huo whom Su Yao and Ning Jing had met under the treasure tower before.
Su Yao and Ning Jing hurried forward and saluted: "Meet Mr. Huo, meet the headmaster and all the elders."
Old Huo looked at them with a smile: "You two must be Su Yao and Ning Jing, right? You two have grown up so much. I remember you were just two little kids back then. Not bad, not bad. One is in the late Jindan stage, and the other is in the early Yuanying stage. Well, not bad, it seems you haven't neglected your cultivation!"
Yes, it has been twenty years since the last time I saw Mr. Huo in the Treasure Pagoda. At that time, Su Yao and Ning Jing guessed that he was not an ordinary person. I didn't expect that he could sit in the main seat now.
After hearing what Mr. Huo said, Su Yao and Ning Jing quickly responded modestly.
Gu Changfeng saw their curiosity and introduced them directly, "This is our Xiaoyao Sect's ancestor. He has already reached the late stage of the Tribulation Crossing Stage. However, when he realized that even if he cultivated to the late stage, he would not be able to ascend, he chose to stop practicing. Otherwise, his cultivation level would definitely be much higher now."
Su Yao and the other three quickly bowed respectfully again: "Greetings, Master Huo!"
Seeing their respectful expressions, Mr. Huo quickly said, "Hahahaha, you don't have to be so distant. I'm old now and don't care about those empty names anymore. You can just call me Mr. Huo!"
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
Seeing that they had finished greeting each other, Gu Changfeng slowly said, "I called you here this time because I have two important things to tell you."
Su Yao and the others listened patiently.
Gu Changfeng paused to take a sip of tea before continuing, "Well, the first thing is about the Upper Immortal Realm. This matter has been passed on to the people of the other three continents. The people of the other three continents were all shocked when they heard about it, so they have sent their respective ancestors to the Haoyue Sect to discuss the matter. The time is set for next month. Elder Huo will also go there.
Even I might need to go along. So this first matter is related to the second. Our Xiaoyao Sect seems to have discovered something unusual about Feiyan City. People are disappearing there every day, and the disciples we've sent out can't find the cause. It just so happens that Elder Huo and I aren't in the sect right now, so you can take this opportunity to go out and gain some experience, and by the way, resolve this matter."
"So that's how it is. I will definitely live up to your trust. We will definitely get to the bottom of this matter when the time comes." Ning Jing spoke first.
Gu Changfeng was very satisfied, so he continued, "If I remember correctly, isn't there a mortal city near Feiyan City? Isn't your hometown there? It's a good opportunity for you to go back and take a look."
"Uncle Gu, if you remember correctly, my sister and I lived there when we were young. It was called Wuxiang City." Su Yao added.
"Oh, yes, it's called Wuxiang City. You haven't had a good rest these days. After you have dealt with this matter, you can have some fun in Wuxiang City and come back later. There is no need to rush back." Gu Changfeng smiled kindly.
These things were not originally the responsibility of these young people, but he didn't expect that he would drag them into it. He felt really sorry for it.
Su Yao and Ning Jing responded in unison.
Then Gu Changfeng turned around and looked at Nalan Jingyue and Xu Fuyi.
He spoke calmly, "My two friends, you heard what I just said. If we wait for another month, I believe that Nalan's spiritual power should be restored, right? Do you plan to return to Haoyue Sect by then? Or will you return to Haoyue Sect?"
Su Yao and Ning Jing looked at each other in surprise when they heard this. Uncle Gu clearly wanted them to return to Haoyue Sect and he asked this on purpose.
Unexpectedly, Xu Fuyi was so shameless. He spoke first, "Looking back at what the Sect Leader said, after this incident at the Dragon Clan Tomb, I've come to realize the limitations of my own strength, so I've decided to go with Fellow Daoist Ning and the others to gain some experience."
I thought Gu Changfeng would refuse, but unexpectedly he just glanced at Xu Fuyi and said nothing more.
Then he turned to look at Nalan Jingyue: "Little friend Nalan, what do you think?"
"Reporting to Sect Leader Gu, my spiritual power will be restored by then, and I also need more opportunities to gain experience so that my cultivation can recover to its previous level faster. Although my realm has declined, I can still take care of each other." After saying this, Nalan Jingyue looked in the direction of Su Yao.
Gu Changfeng naturally saw this action, but he didn't say anything. In fact, he also hoped that Nalan Jingyue and the others could go together on this trip. After all, the disciples sent by their sect were all quite strong, but several of them still died in Feiyan City.
If the two of them went together, he wouldn't have to worry so much about them.
"In that case, you can go together. After a month, you can set off for Feiyan City." There was no displeasure on Gu Changfeng's face.
Unexpectedly, he not only did not refuse, but also agreed. This made Nalan Jingyue and Xu Fuyi unable to say what they had in mind.
