Mo Wujiu and the disciples of Jishang Sect left in a hurry, and the flying boat soon disappeared from their sight.
"Master, we can make them spit out everything they took from Wanxiandao." Zhongli Tingzhou began to think about how to blackmail Jishang Sect.
Seeing that he took his words seriously, Master Zixiao shook his head with a smile, "All the things of the Ten Thousand Immortals are things of the immortals. Even the most ordinary things are better than most of the natural treasures on the Lingtian Continent. The Jishang Sect values them very much. Even if we really force them to do so, they may not be willing to hand them over."
"Besides, we are facing a powerful enemy now. Even if there is any score to be settled, it will not be too late in the future."
"It turns out you were just trying to scare them." Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly felt bored.
"It's not a threat. If Mo Wujiu refuses to leave and insists on pestering me, don't blame me. I've seriously injured Chu Yujiang this time, and now we're even with what happened on the Heaven Punishment Island."
Master Zixiao put the sword back into the scabbard behind him, put one hand behind his back, and stood facing the wind.
"You think it's clear, but some people may not think so." Zhongli Tingzhou didn't believe that the people of Jishang Sect were so magnanimous.
"What they think is their business." Master Zixiao waved his hand, "Okay, you should go."
"Master, what is the other reason for coming to Wanxiandao? Why not tell me? Maybe I can help you share some of your burden." Zhongli Tingzhou said with a smile.
Master Zixiao smiled and asked, "What do you know?"
Zhongli Tingzhou said nonchalantly: "I know a lot, I don't know what you want to ask."
Master Zixiao looked at him deeply and said, "Master, I underestimated you."
"No, I just happen to know more secrets. I am different from these nephews and grandchildren. The elders' words of 'those things are not for you to know now' are useless to me."
If there was a chair, Gao Han had no doubt that he would cross his legs in front of Master Zixiao like a big boss.
However, Zhongli Tingzhou did know a little more than him. At least he had not seen the stone tablet in the residence of Immortal Lord Donghua.
Gao Han sighed and sent a message to Master Zixiao: "Uncle Master, I met an old man in Wanxiandao."
Master Zixiao was now certain that they did know something that others did not know, so he waved his hand and set up a barrier around the three people.
"After you entered the Wanxian Road, which path did you take?"
"I follow the path of chaos, and Tingzhou follows the path of yin and yang." Gao Han said truthfully.
Master Zixiao's expression suddenly became serious. "I see. No wonder. It seems we don't need to stay here any longer. Let's go back and talk about it later."
He removed the barrier again.
At this time, the Thousand-Faced Fairy flew over, stood not far away and bowed.
"Master, I haven't seen you for many years. I was very grateful to you for helping me back then. Otherwise, I wouldn't be standing here today."
Ren Xinyue who was standing behind couldn't help showing a hint of surprise when she heard this. She didn't know that Master Zixiao had once saved her master, and she didn't expect that there was such a past.
"Are you Helian Xiya?" Master Zixiao's gaze shifted to the Thousand-Faced Fairy.
"I didn't expect that the Master still remembered me." The Thousand-Faced Fairy's wrinkled face revealed a smile, and the cold lines were a little softer than usual.
"I have had a drink with your master once, and I remember that you were not like this a thousand years ago." A flash of reminiscence passed through Master Zixiao's eyes, and he smiled.
He has lived for nearly ten thousand years, and many of his former acquaintances have long since disappeared.
The Thousand-Faced Fairy showed a hint of shyness, and with a wave of her hand, all the disguise on her face disappeared. She was still dressed the same way, but her orange-like old face had turned into a stunningly beautiful face.
"After all, I'm not young anymore, and it would be more convenient for me to have a different face when I go out," she explained.
It was the first time that Ren Xinyue saw her master like this, and she was extremely shocked.
You have to know that since hundreds of years ago, the master has rarely shown his original appearance in front of others. Even her, the disciple, has not seen it for hundreds of years.
After the Thousand Faces Fairy finished speaking, she took out three boxes and handed them over. "Master, you saved me back then, and now your disciples have saved my disciples. This is part of what they got from the Ten Thousand Immortals Way. Please accept it as a thank you gift."
The three boxes then flew in front of Master Zixiao, but he waved them away.
"No need for that. The disciples are safe this time because they maintained their original intentions and worked together. Otherwise, they would not have been able to get out."
The Thousand-Faced Fairy hesitated for a moment, then put the box away and said, "Okay then."
She suddenly remembered that she was indeed rash in this matter. If she insisted on sending it away, how would the other sects deal with it?
If they are asked to take out the box of Wanxiandao, they will definitely be reluctant to do so. If they don't take it, even if Zixiao Sect has no intention of repaying them, they will still feel disgusted. It will be of no benefit anyway, and it will put Zixiao Sect in an unjust position.
"I owe you my life. In the future, if you need anything, just tell me. As long as it is not against my moral conscience, Xiya will do her best to do it."
With just one sentence, the Thousand-Faced Fairy brought the matter back to the gratitude between them.
"In this case, the Fairy Sect will go first."
After the Thousand-Faced Fairy left with her followers on a flying boat, cultivators from other sects came to see Master Zixiao, and also left with their followers.
"Let's go too." Master Zixiao raised his hand and released his flying boat.
His flying boat was bigger and more luxurious than Chang Tianya's, and it was not at all like his cold and noble image.
"Master, this flying boat doesn't seem to be to your taste. Was it made for you by someone else?" After Zhongli Tingzhou went up, he took a tour around and returned to Master Zixiao.
Master Zixiao responded indifferently and sat cross-legged on a high platform.
"If you don't like it, just give it to me." Zhongli Tingzhou liked it very much. He felt that this was his style.
Master Zixiao glanced at him and said, "This flying boat is very expensive, and the materials used are all top-grade. You really know how to ask for things."
"You are already a master. Is there any place in Lingtian Continent that you cannot reach? This flying boat is probably only used once every thousand years. It is really an extraordinary flying boat. You should use it more often in front of others. Otherwise, how can you justify its existence? The person who helped you refine this flying boat made it like this just for others to see."
"That's a lot of twisted ideas." Master Zixiao shook his head. "I really don't need it, but I can't give it to you. This flying boat was given to me by an old friend."
Zhongli Tingzhou immediately said to Gao Han, "We will build a bigger, more luxurious and more comfortable flying boat in the future. It's obvious that the owner of this flying boat lacks imagination."
Gao Han didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Since he couldn't get what he wanted, he started making personal attacks.
"Stop talking nonsense and get down to business." Master Zixiao set up a barrier around them again.
Chang Tianya didn't come up to disturb them when he saw this, as he also had something to ask.
Zhongli Tingzhou shrugged, "Let's talk business. I didn't expect that Master actually has an admirer. That Helian Xiya, from the looks of her, I think she likes you, Master."
"How is your health now?" Master Zixiao, who knew his disciple's character well, simply ignored his question this time.
"That's great. I didn't expect that even though you're already so old, there are still young girls who like you." Zhongli Tingzhou said with emotion.
Gao Han nudged him with his elbow and said, "Just take care of yourself, why do you care about your uncle's love life?"
"This is what a disciple should do. I can't just watch my master live out his life alone. He's already been single for nearly 10,000 years. If others knew that I, a man in my twenties with a wife, actually have a bachelor master, what would they think of him? I'm also worried that he'll get sick if he stays single. This is the first time I've seen a bachelor for 10,000 years."
Gao Han immediately started coughing violently and glared at him. He really dared to say anything.
Master Zixiao frowned slightly, "Master, I didn't know that your business scope is so wide that you even want to control your emotional life."
"That means you didn't make the mistake of accepting me as your disciple. No other disciples care about their master so much." Zhongli Tingzhou said with some pride.
"I am a little regretful, Master." Master Zixiao said helplessly. He was indeed wrong. He thought he had accepted a disciple who was as aloof as himself.
Master Zixiao ignored the disciple and looked at Gao Han and said, "You can follow the path of chaos, so you must have the root of chaos."
"Yes, it's just that the Chaos Spiritual Root is a little weak, so I have never discovered it." Gao Han said truthfully.
"That's right. If your Chaos Spiritual Root is the same as your Fire Spiritual Root, your master and I should have discovered it long ago. What did you see in there?"
Gao Han organized his words, "My disciple saw a river in the sky collapse, and then there was a war between immortals... Chaos Dao still remembers the things in the immortal world, but I have not seen the cause of the war between immortals."
Master Zixiao nodded gently, "Some things will not be known to you too quickly, it will not be good for you. What you see inside is what you can see."
"That's why I hate these self-righteous immortals." Zhongli Tingzhou interrupted.
Master Zixiao was neither annoyed nor angry, he just smiled and said: "When you reach their level, you will also become the person you hate. You are not at that level yet, so you cannot understand it."
Zhongli Tingzhou didn't reply this time, of course he knew this.
Gao Han knew what he was thinking. In fact, he was not thinking about anything. He just wanted to make a joke.
"Uncle Master, do you know what that river in the sky is?"
Master Zixiao pondered for a moment, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be the Heavenly River recorded in the legend. It is rumored that the cultivators of Lingtian Continent must be baptized by the Heavenly River in order to transform their spiritual power into immortal power and ascend to become real immortals."
“No wonder I saw so many people coming out of the Milky Way.” Gao Han finally understood.
“So, the collapse of the Tianhe River is the reason why Master has been trapped in the Lingtian Continent and unable to ascend?” Zhongli Tingzhou said, touching his chin.
Master Zixiao nodded, "Not bad."
Gao Han asked: "If Uncle Master and my Master want to ascend to heaven in the future and get rid of the shackles of life span, do they need to make the Tianhe River reappear?"
"The Tianhe River is the incarnation of the Heavenly Dao. This is not something we can do with our own strength." Master Zixiao had already made some calculations in his mind and directly skipped the topic. "What did you see in the Yin-Yang Dao?"
Zhongli Tingzhou narrowed his eyes. "I saw a person from ancient times holding a strange bead that seemed to bring plants back to life. Master, do you know what that bead is?"
Master Zixiao looked a little sad, "That bead, is it one black and one white?"
Zhongli Tingzhou nodded. "It's one black and one white, a bit like the Bagua. I call it the Yin Yang Bead."
"It's right to call it the Yin-Yang Pearl, but its real name is not the Yin-Yang Pearl, but the Samsara Pearl. I have only heard of it in legends. It is said that this treasure disappeared in ancient times, and even the immortals don't know its whereabouts."
"Master, how do you know that the immortals don't know? Could it be that in ancient times, the Lingtian Continent and the Immortal Realm could communicate?" Zhongli Tingzhou asked with a smile.
Master Zixiao pondered for a moment, "At this point, it's okay for me to tell you. Immortals really can't leave the fairyland at will, but it's still possible to use some mediums to pass on information. And among the famous figures in the fairyland back then, there were elders who ascended from the Zixiao Sect. The Zixiao Sect has existed until now, and it is also related to the protection of those elders when the fairyland existed."
"No wonder the people of Jishang Sect are so incompetent, yet they are still able to hold on until now."
Zhongli Tingzhou was very resentful. He remembered every account clearly in his mind and would settle accounts with them sooner or later.
"For a short period of time, don't come into contact with people from the Jishang Sect." Master Zixiao seemed unwilling to say more.
"I'm not afraid of them." Zhongli Tingzhou said, "Master seems to know something, don't you want to tell me?"
"Some things are still shrouded in mystery, and I am still unsure. When the time comes, I believe you will know."
Zhongli Tingzhou: "Master, you have become smarter."
Master Zixiao smiled and said, "Master will also grow." It was rare for him to joke with them.
"Uncle-master, what is the effect of the Samsara Bead?" Gao Han waited for them to finish talking before bringing the topic back. He really wanted to know if the Yin-Yang Bead had any side effects on Zhongli Tingzhou.
However, he was destined to be disappointed. When the fairy world still existed, even the immortals did not know about the situation of the Samsara Pearl, let alone the Lingtian Continent where there are almost no records now.
"I only know that the Wheel of Reincarnation has the power to bring the dead back to life, but you must know that bringing the dead back to life is against the laws of nature and should be paid for. Sometimes getting such a treasure may not be a good thing." Master Zixiao had an indifferent expression, and it was unknown whether he had guessed something or was just saying it casually.
"If you have anything else to ask, just ask. I'll tell you everything I can."
"You'd better not say anything." Zhongli Tingzhou said.
Gao Han said to him, "Uncle Master, please understand me."
Master Zixiao laughed again and said nonchalantly, "Besides the Yin-Yang Dao and the Chaos Dao, what else have you discovered? Tell us all."
"An old man who was guarding a cemetery. He let me comprehend the Way of Chaos there, and then he let me go. He also disappeared without telling me his name."
Master Zixiao didn't ask any more questions, and then asked: "Besides the wandering spirits, have you seen any human beings in the Immortal Palace?"
Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly took out something and threw it over, "Ask it yourself, it might be faster."
Master Zixiao took the transparent bottle and saw a miniature wandering soul trapped inside. The innocent little face was lying on the bottle, looking at them eagerly.
"Why did you bring the wandering souls from the Asgard out?"
"It insisted on following me. It got the bottle by itself."
"The Immortal Palace has a treasure, this should be the Soul-Fixing Bottle. Without this bottle, the wandering soul cannot leave the Immortal Palace. Adding some immortal springs can nourish the wandering soul. I didn't expect that a weak wandering soul could get it."
"Can a wandering soul that can obtain the Soul-Fixing Bottle be a weakling?" Zhongli Tingzhou didn't believe from the beginning that this little wandering soul was really that weak.
"Its soul seems to have been broken and then reassembled. It may have been a powerful figure in the Immortal Palace before, but it lost its power and memory and was reborn." Master Zixiao returned the soul-fixing bottle to him.
"You don't want to ask?" Zhongli Tingzhou asked after receiving it.
"No need to ask. A soul reassembled from fragments won't remember many things. This Soul-Fixing Bottle is good. Once its soul is stable, we can let it leave the Soul-Fixing Bottle."
Master Zixiao looked at them and asked with a smile, "You have gained a lot in the Wanxiandao this time. Your cultivation has improved so quickly. Others should no longer be your opponents."
"It's okay, but still far behind Master." Zhongli Tingzhou said.
Master Zixiao smiled, "Gao Han has now exposed the existence of the Eight Divine Swords' Eighth Saber. Jishang Sect should not hesitate any longer. If there is nothing important, don't leave Zixiao Sect for the time being."
"It doesn't matter. I will break through to the Spirit Transformation Stage as soon as possible. If they dare to send someone from the Fusion Stage, I will kill them one by one." Zhongli Tingzhou said arrogantly.
Master Zixiao had never been so arrogant when he was young. He ignored this "ambitious" disciple and said to Gao Han seriously, "Your master is in seclusion recently. I, your uncle, have something to say to you. The eighth sword of the Eight Divine Swords should not be used if it is not necessary. Since you have read the full version, you should know this."
"Disciple knows, I never intended to use it." Gao Han had his own thoughts when he said the knife used on the Condemnation Island.
The attitude of the Jishang Sect shows that they have never given up the Eight Divine Swords, so it doesn’t really matter whether he has the complete version.
Master Zixiao nodded with satisfaction, "As long as you know what's going on, it's fine. All right, you two can go."
He had spoken enough to them today, and with a wave of his hand he removed the barrier, and the voices of everyone talking could reach his ears again.
The two left hand in hand to find their own place.
Zhongli Tingzhou pulled him to an empty corner and asked, "What is the situation of the eighth sword of the Eight Divine Swords? Why have you never told me?"
"Because I don't plan to use it, why should I tell you?" Gao Han said indifferently.
"Okay, you pass." Zhongli Tingzhou said, "Bring out the box you caught in the Xianquan space for me to see. Now that we have left the Heavenly Punishment Island, it is time to count our spoils."
"Can't we go back to Zixiao Sect and take another look?" Gao Han said.
"Is it because you can't open it that you want to go back to Zixiao Sect to read it again? When you get to Zixiao Sect, will you find an excuse to fool me and say that you have already read it?" Zhongli Tingzhou's handsome face became more and more uglier.
Gao Han was helpless. How could the drama queen be so perceptive in this regard? He did have this plan.
"Well, it really can't be opened."
This was his miscalculation. He rushed forward without hesitation to help Zhongli Tingzhou block part of the power of the Black Sun, but he did not expect that the Yayoi Ring could not be opened directly. He also suffered considerable internal injuries after the backlash.
"But if I had the chance again, I would still make the same choice." Gao Han looked at him and said.
Zhongli Tingzhou met his eyes and coughed softly, "Of course I know that you love me so much."
Gao Han resisted the urge to roll his eyes.
"What I mean is, even if you love me too much, you can't disregard your own life. Anyway, don't do this again next time. The Yayoi ring was stolen twice because of me. I will definitely find the Phoenix Feather."
Seeing that he loved her too much, Zhongli Tingzhou generously forgave his recklessness this time.
"Thank you." Gao Han said expressionlessly.
"You're welcome. This is what I should do as your partner." Zhongli Tingzhou said as he leaned over and kissed him. Before he could speak, he said, "This is a pre-payment for the day after tomorrow."
Gao Han had nothing to say to him. He rubbed his forehead and said, "One Phoenix Feather may not be enough now. The sudden inability to open the Yayoi Ring was a bit beyond my expectation. I may have to ask someone about it then."
“As long as the materials we need are not in your ring…” Zhongli Tingzhou suddenly stopped and looked into his eyes.
Gao Han: “…”
Shit! Gao Han cursed in his heart for the first time. All the materials he had prepared to repair the Yayoi Ring were in there.
"After I go back, I will immediately find the same one." Zhongli Tingzhou said seriously.
"Let's talk about it later." Gao Han said woodenly. He was in no mood at all.
"I still have several boxes on me. Fortunately, the boxes can only be collected if they fall into the water. The boxes are all on me."
Zhongli Tingzhou originally wanted to go back and take another look, but now he couldn't wait any longer, so he immediately took out all the boxes, ready to use them to attract Gao Han and arouse his emotions.
"I still have a lot of magical tools on me. If I take them out to exchange, someone will definitely take the initiative to bring the things to us."
As Zhongli Tingzhou spoke, he raised his hand and a bunch of immortal weapons fell to the ground with a clattering sound. At a glance, there were more than a dozen of them.
The entire flying boat fell silent in an instant. Except for Yuan Ran and Pei Zhenghai, everyone stared at the pile of magical artifacts in amazement with their eyes wide open.
Yu Zilang, who had just opened a magic weapon in a box, looked at the other party's dozen or so magic weapons, and all his joy disappeared in an instant.
Fortunately, he was not alone. Yu Zilang felt relieved when he thought that there were so many people accompanying him on the flying boat.
"Why aren't you surprised at all?" Yu Zilang was thinking when he saw Pei Zhenghai's calm face.
"There's nothing surprising." Pei Zhenghai glanced at him. You foolish mortals, if you had seen him pull out hundreds of immortal weapons from the weapon tomb and lose hundreds more, you would know how trivial these dozen or so are.
Pei Zhenghai felt emotional in his heart that he and Yu Zilang and the others were different people after all. After all, he was already a worldly-wise man.
Yu Zilang felt that his expression at this moment was very unpleasant. Why was this guy so proud?
"Put the things away." Noticing everyone's envious looks, Gao Han's face turned black. How could he show off like that?
Zhongli Tingzhou put it away again, "Are you feeling any different now?"
"Does it count as wanting to hit someone? Do you think I should vent my anger a little?" Gao Han said to him with a wry smile.
Zhongli Tingzhou quietly put away the boxes and said, "How should I answer this question? I support you in venting your anger by beating others."
"What if I just want to beat you up?" Gao Han tilted his head and looked at him.
Zhongli Tingzhou whispered, "Okay, let's go to the bed and have a goblin fight?"
Then he was beaten up by Gao Han.
More than half a month later, after a long journey, the luxurious flying boat finally returned to Zixiao Sect.
