Chapter 1259: Chapter 1258: I, the Lonely Qilin Immortal

"Junior Brother Dai must be exhausted from long-term work, both mentally and physically. It would be good for him to rest for a while. You should not visit him, Junior Brother. Let him recuperate peacefully."

Lu Yang really wanted to say, "Could it be, Eldest Senior Sister, that you scared Elder Brother Dai?"

Even Lu Yang knew how astonishing the series of events was, so he had originally planned to only share the news of the Four Ancient Immortals visiting with Elder Brother Dai, and not discuss anything else.

Unexpectedly, Eldest Senior Sister told him everything.

"Esteemed predecessors are here to visit the Seek Dao Sect, welcome." Yun Zhi greeted each of the Four Ancient Immortals, who were so frightened that they kept returning the greetings. Three-quarters of them had been disciplined by Yun Zhi before.

Even the remaining Qilin Immortal had seen Yun Zhi displaying her power in Zhongshan County.

"However, I need to go to Imperial City to see Mr. Jiang. How about letting Fairy Senior and Junior Brother lead you on the tour?"

"No worries at all," the Four Ancient Immortals quickly replied, as Yun Zhi’s nonchalant demeanor oppressed them from daring to enjoy themselves.

"What are you going to do in Imperial City?" Fairy Eternity wondered, still considering having Miss Yun guide them through the Seek Dao Sect.

Besides, hadn’t she just met Jiang Ping’an in Zhongshan County?

Yun Zhi sighed faintly, a rare occurrence, "After the battle in Imperial City, Guan Shanhai’s Three Souls and Seven Spirits, physical body, and Dao Fruit were all separated. Our Seek Dao Sect kept the Three Souls and Dao Fruit, while the Dynasty kept the Seven Spirits and the physical body."

Lu Yang nodded. He, of course, remembered this—it was his idea.

"Guan Shanhai just mentioned that he feels powerless and restricted in Captive Peak and wants to retrieve his Seven Spirits and physical body. I’ll go negotiate with Mr. Jiang."

Lu Yang: "..."

Is the human care in Seek Dao Sect too excessive?

"By the way, Eldest Senior Sister, we don’t believe that Qilin Immortal Senior was the one who assassinated Time Immortal Senior. His memories might have been altered by Yao Saint," said Lu Yang.

Alterations such as reality and memory became established facts once altered, without the need to maintain a Verbal Spell state constantly.

Yun Zhi nodded unsurprised, a look of expectation confirmed, "Just as I thought."

"You think so too?" Lu Yang was delighted, having spoken to gain support from Eldest Senior Sister.

"Of course, it’s just that..."

Yun Zhi stopped mid-sentence, realizing that too many people were around. Such things were not to be said openly, so she kept silent.

"But what?" Qilin Immortal eagerly wanted to know the reason.

Seeing Qilin Immortal’s urgency, Yun Zhi hesitated for a moment before saying, "Because you look rather weak."

"I..."

Qilin Immortal was choked off, turning to glare at three brothers barely holding back their laughter behind him.

"There’s another matter; the esteemed predecessors wish to unlock the World Seal to open Box World. What do you think about that?"

"Opening Box World? That’s a good idea," Yun Zhi revealed a faint smile.

Having lived in a Secret Realm since childhood, she had never seen the true stars. After Daoist Buyu took her out of the Secret Realm, although the sky was filled with dazzling stars, it was merely a shadow of the stars that once existed. She had then used the Golden Core in place of the stars.

Now that Box World was opening, she could fulfill her wish to witness the real starry sky.

"However, opening Box World involves many aspects and should not be done rashly," said Yun Zhi after smiling.

"That’s natural," Lu Yang knew his Eldest Senior Sister’s concerns mirrored his own. On the way here, he had already figured out how to proceed with the first step, "It would be best to call in the decision-makers from all major powers to sit down and come up with a standard together."

Among these major powers were Great Xia’s Jiang Ping’an, Demon Territory’s Jiang Lianyi, East Sea’s Ao Ling, Buddha Country’s Time Immortal. The Extreme Northern Lands lacked a unified power, so they would not be considered.

"Just right, I’m heading to Imperial City, I’ll talk to Mr. Jiang about this matter."

"So I’m responsible for notifying the rest?" Lu Yang took the initiative to volunteer.

"That won’t be necessary." Yun Zhi left these words, leaped into the air, transformed into a golden light and disappeared, leaving the crowd baffled.

What does ’That won’t be necessary’ mean? Who will notify the remaining Jiang Lianyi and Ao Ling?

Lu Yang’s eyes twitched slightly, he was the first to realize what Eldest Senior Sister meant and prepared to slip away before the situation became chaotic.

Unfortunately, it was already too late; the echoing sound of dragon and phoenix cries arose from the back mountain of Sky Gate Mountain.

"You dare come back!"

A dragon and a phoenix soared in the sky, their pupils burning with raging flames.

No wonder the rest didn’t need to be notified; Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi were already at the Seek Dao Sect.

Qilin Immortal’s complexion changed drastically upon seeing this, pulling over the Yingtian Immortal and Jiuchong Immortal to shield him.

"Qilin, handle family matters on your own," Yingtian Immortal and Jiuchong Immortal dodged at the crucial moment.

Then the generous Time Immortal shouted, "Both of you junior siblings, go ahead without worry; if things break, I can restore them using the Time Dao Fruit!"

The Yingtian Three Immortals tactfully moved away from the area to avoid any accidental injuries.

The combined attack of the dragon and phoenix was formidable, unparalleled as they swooped down from the sky, the figures of the dragon and phoenix enlarging in Qilin Immortal’s pupils.

Boom!!

The smoke billowed, and two graceful figures emerged from the dust, leaving only Qilin Immortal sprawled on the ground.

Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi snorted coldly, each grabbing one of Lu Yang’s arms.

"Elder Brother Lu Yang, didn’t we agree to deal with my husband together when he appears? Why didn’t you act?"

Lu Yang’s forehead was drenched in cold sweat. On the ground, Qilin Immortal was lifting his head, staring at Lu Yang with a terrifying gaze.

Even when Qilin Immortal knew that Lu Yang was proficient with the shameful past of Ancient Times, he had never looked at Lu Yang with such a gaze!

"Both of you senior sisters, I mean, both of you seniors, there must be some misunderstanding between us," Lu Yang murmured, sandwiched between Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi, secretly lamenting his fate.

God knows, whenever I encounter such situations, I avoid them if I can; last time when Ao Ling proposed that they jointly teach Qilin Immortal a lesson, I teleported to the Extreme Northern Lands using Heaven and Earth in an Inch to suffer there.

Little Qiongqi and Jin Caiwei appeared behind, struggling to pull up Qilin Immortal from the ground, her height insufficient for the task.

She expressed her feelings at that moment, "Ah Shi, I knew you would come. I always believed in you!"

Feeling the gaze of everyone present, especially the cold, merciless eyes of Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi that seemed ready to kill, Qilin Immortal felt a desire to die.

"Caiwei, come here, don’t stand on his side," Ao Ling said coldly. They had searched the entire world for Qilin Immortal to no avail, clearly indicating he was intentionally avoiding them; the good fortune of his sudden appearance was too good to even contemplate.

Jin Caiwei glanced at Qilin Immortal and then at Ao Ling and Jiang Lianyi, making the tough decision to let go of Qilin Immortal and run to Lu Yang’s side.

In an instant, Qilin Immortal was again left all alone.

Any expectation from Immortal Fairy, who appeared to enjoy watching the drama unfold, was futile. Lu Yang prayed to the heavens, wishing for someone to help him break the deadlock.

"Second-in-command, you’re back!"

Yun Mengmeng appeared, her face overflowing with a naïve and radiant smile, and she lunged towards Lu Yang.

Lu Yang wore a look of utter despondence.

This isn’t the kind of escape I wanted.
