Elder Tian was worried about the Zixiao Sect, so he left in a hurry without having the time to talk to them more.

Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou had an additional task, which was to find Elder Xiao.

They suspected that there was a high chance that Elder Xiao was still in the Southern Region.

There was such a big commotion in the Southern Region. If Elder Xiao was waiting for Feng Xinxing and the others outside the Fallen Land at that time, it is impossible that he did not notice the abnormality in the Southern Region.

As it turned out, their guess was correct.

Not long after they parted with Elder Tian, ​​they met Xunxiu Fugui. The golden little beast fell out of the newly appeared space crack with a grunt, and immediately started to whimper when it saw them.

"Wow, Second Dad, the South Territory was so scary just now, I thought I would never see you again!"

After successfully completing the instructions from his two fathers, Fugui left Dayan City on his own and returned to the Southern Region to find them. As a result, a sudden change occurred in the Southern Region, and there were chaotic strong winds everywhere.

If you tear the space to travel at this time, you will most likely be swept into the turbulence. If you don't find the person, you may be swept into other spaces.

He could only wait anxiously at the edge of the Southern Region. After finally waiting for the strong wind to disappear and the Southern Region to return to stability, he followed the breath of the two people.

"Fugui!" Gao Han was also very happy to see him. He hugged the little golden beast that jumped into his arms and rubbed his furry head as if he had found it again.

Fugui's head was rubbed so hard that he couldn't even lift it up. He always felt that his second father seemed to be particularly enthusiastic today.

I couldn't help but think happily, is he so important to my second dad?

A day without seeing you feels like three years?

The little golden beast was so moved that his eyes were filled with tears. It turned out that his importance in the second father's heart had already surpassed that of the first father.

Zhongli Tingzhou was itching to punch the crap out of him. He always felt that this little bastard was thinking about something that made him unhappy.

"Alright, we've only been apart for less than half a day, and you're acting like we're parting forever." Unable to bear it any longer, he immediately pulled the man and the beast apart, and then said to Gao Han with a jealous look on his face, "I almost died, but you didn't cling to me like this. You pushed me away when I took off your pants, and this guy has only been gone for less than half a day! You act like you'll never see him again. Who is the most important person in your heart?"

He was jealous, really jealous. If his boyfriend didn't coax him this time, he wouldn't care whether the demon battlefield was going to end or the demon species was going to break the seal.

A smell of vinegar suddenly hit Gao Han's face. He was stunned for a moment, which was unusual. Then his face turned a little red suspiciously.

Does this guy know how to speak? What does it mean to take off his pants? The child is still here!

"What do you mean he almost died?" Fugui asked blankly, "When did Daddy almost die?"

"How do you think Crofts died? It was because of me, the big dad, who risked my life and almost gave it up." Zhongli Tingzhou said unhappily. The bastard didn't even care about their safety when they met.

Fugui was stunned by what he said, and stammered, "I see you guys are fine, did Daddy really almost die?"

Gao Han came back to his senses and coughed lightly, "It was almost there. I didn't expect that the essence of heaven and earth that we have been looking for all these years would actually appear in my Xumi world. Do you remember the tall tree that grew there before?"

Fugui immediately showed a thoughtful expression, and suddenly clapped his paws, "I know, so that's how it is, that's the World Tree, it turns out that it was destined by fate, and the hope of Big Daddy's life has always been in the hands of Second Daddy."

Fugui couldn't help but look at the two fathers. They really were a perfect match in every sense of the word.

He inherited the demon god's memory, but he had never seen such a coincidence.

He may have a coincidence someday. It doesn't have to be too coincidental, as long as it can make his cultivation advance by leaps and bounds. It would be good even if he can achieve Mahayana perfection.

"Don't try to change the subject. You haven't answered me yet. In your heart, is wealth more important, or am I more important?" Zhongli Tingzhou was unyielding.

Gao Han looked at him strangely, "Do you really not know, or are you pretending not to know?"

Zhongli Tingzhou was secretly happy in his heart, but he still said stubbornly: "I don't care, I want to hear it from your own mouth anyway."

Gao Han was silent for a moment.

Fugui felt that the low pressure on the eldest father was getting stronger and stronger. Just when he couldn't help but sympathize with the eldest father and let the second father go against his conscience, the second father spoke.

"When you almost died, I felt like the sky was falling. At that time, I had a thought that if you died, I would not want to live alone. At that time, I did not expect that things would turn around in the end, so I had already made up my mind. I saw that Fugui was so enthusiastic because we almost died together. If so, are you satisfied?"

Gao Han said this, looking up and looking directly into his eyes. There seemed to be a hint of embarrassment in his cold pupils.

Zhongli Tingzhou's mouth was almost stretched to his ears, and he couldn't hide his smile. "Satisfied, but this kind of thing is just for thought. Even if I really die, I won't allow you to die, understand?"

Gao Han glared at him and said sternly, "Do you think that dying once is not enough, or do you want to die a second time?"

"Okay, I won't mention it anymore." Zhongli Tingzhou smiled. He didn't mind being scolded like this a few times. It just made him feel good.

Fugui said he was tired. He was just a baby. Was it okay to hurt a baby like this?

He thought that his second father really hadn't seen him for a while and missed him very much.

It turns out that in the second father's heart, they have already experienced separation and death.

"Baby is angry and doesn't want to talk to you now." Fugui snorted.

Gao Han touched his head and said, "Don't be angry. Tell us about the situation in Dayan City. Have you seen Feng Xinxing and Elder Xiao?"

Fugui was angry for a second, "I saw Feng Xinxing and the others, but I didn't see Elder Xiao."

Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou exchanged a glance and said, "It seems that our guess was correct. Elder Xiao really did not go back. There is a greater than 80% chance that he is still in the Southern Region."

"We have destroyed most of the demons' plans in the Southern Region. Where else can Elder Xiao go?" Zhongli Tingzhou raised his eyebrows.

Gao Han thought for a moment, "You forgot why Crofts wanted to use his real body to hunt down Elder Tian. Although Elder Tian's status in Zixiao Sect is high, it is not enough for Crofts to go out in person. We have not yet fully figured out his purpose in the Southern Region."

Zhongli Tingzhou: "There is one person who may know."

Gao Han was just about to ask someone when he suddenly remembered.

"Who is it?" Fugui asked.

Who else could it be? Of course it was because of Crofts, the Lord of Hill City whose life they had spared.

This great monarch-level city lord is one of the few top-notch warriors in the Southern Territory. No matter how big the matter is, Crofts should mention something to him.

…

Earthworks city.

When the huge gale was about to hit, Lord Hill almost went crazy and was planning to suffer mutual losses with the human race.

It was not until the strong wind suddenly stopped that they managed to save their lives. The fierce life-and-death battle turned into a gentle style of fighting.

Lord Hill didn't know that Crofts was dead, otherwise he would have ordered a retreat without hesitation.

"What's going on with these monsters?" The human cultivators were a little confused by the monsters' actions. Should they be fought?

Shi Dong suddenly had a guess, "Are these demons deliberately delaying time?"

This conservative fighting style obviously shows that he does not want to fight them to the death. While protecting himself, he will not let others think that he is doing nothing. It is obviously done for other monsters to see.

If such a person appeared among the human race, he would definitely be despised. Unexpectedly, there are also such people among the demons, and he is led by a great monarch-level demon.

Shi Dong told everyone his guess, and everyone was speechless.

I don’t know whether to say it’s fortunate or unfortunate.

They don't have to fight the monsters desperately, and the number of casualties will be much less, which is indeed beneficial to them. But if they continue to fight like this, how long will it take?

"Lord Tufang, what do you think we should do now?" Shi Dong could only ask this question to Lord Tufang.

"This..." The Lord of Hijikata City didn't know what to do.

If you fight to the death, the demons will not have the intention to fight to the death, and it will only result in a fearless sacrifice.

If they don't fight hard, they will seem to have the same thoughts as demons. If people find out in the future, they won't know how to blame them.

Just when they were in a dilemma, the arrival of Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou helped them make a choice.

But it must be said that Lord Hill has a keen sense of danger.

Almost the next second after the two came out, he realized something was wrong and tore through space and escaped without hesitation.

The fluctuations he sensed were exactly the fluctuations of the space crack. Only those in the Mahayana stage could tear the space crack apart. He was afraid of being besieged, so he ran away without even confirming it.

Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou were indeed caught off guard. They didn't expect this guy to be so afraid of death.

"This is the first time I've seen someone who is so afraid of death." Zhongli Tingzhou became interested and immediately chased after him.

The Lord of Hijikata, who suddenly lost his opponent, looked confused.

He just seemed to see two human Mahayana monks appear, and then his opponent ran away without saying a word, and the two human Mahayana monks immediately chased after him.

Everything happened in just one second, so fast that he almost thought it was an illusion, if his opponent hadn't really run away.

However, when did two unfamiliar human Mahayana masters appear in the Southern Region? Could they be some casual cultivators?

But he remembered that in the past month or two, he had not seen many independent Mahayana practitioners appear.

Lord Hill didn't get far before he was forced out by them and fell back to the Southern Region through the space crack.

"Who are you?"

Seeing the two people, Lord Hill had an uneasy premonition. Could these two people be the human Mahayana that Lord Crofts mentioned? But weren't they targeting Lord Crofts? Why did they appear here?

"Who are we? Didn't Crofts tell you?" Zhongli Tingzhou walked towards him with a smile.
