Dao Cheng Gui Xian

Chapter 410 Regret, Negotiation

These words startled not only Xue Yan and the others, but also Luo Zhenyi and Luo Xuanxu.

All the two knew was that the girl in the black dress was an envoy of the Immortal Lotus Venerable, and that she had come from the Immortal Lotus Sacred Domain to oversee the refining of the Heavenly Flame Seed.

But it turned out to be the Immortal Lotus Venerable himself?
Amidst the astonished gazes of the crowd, the girl in the black dress's eyes shone with white light, a white lotus appeared between her brows, and her entire aura suddenly became ethereal.

He then nodded and greeted the Great Venerable Yanwu and the Abbot of Xuanhuang Temple, saying:

"I've met two fellow Taoists!"

"hiss!"

Upon seeing the girl in the black dress, a collective gasp filled the room. Luo Zhenyi and Luo Xuanxu quickly bowed and greeted her.
"Greetings, Immortal Lotus Venerable!"

Upon realizing what was happening, Xueyan and the others also bowed respectfully.

As for Li Wushou, the moment Mo Shen bowed, he thought to himself: "As expected."

This girl in the black dress is indeed the Immortal Lotus Venerable, but she is probably not the Immortal Lotus Venerable in her true form. The Immortal Lotus Venerable is likely possessing the body of the girl in the black dress through the white lotus in her palm.

With his extensive experience in possessing others, Li Wushou finally noticed a clue through his close-up perception just now.

Having confirmed this, Li Wushou felt much better.

At least from the current point of view, although he did not sense any closeness from the Immortal Lotus Venerable, the other party's attitude towards him was not the same as that of the Green Lotus Luo Clan, who was always ready to fight and kill.

The other party hadn't even told Luo Zhenyi and Luo Xuanxu that he was Li Wushou, otherwise there wouldn't have been that incident just now.

Luo is Luo, and Qinghe is Qinghe.

Or perhaps the blue lotus is the blue lotus, and the immortal lotus is the immortal lotus?

In any case, this is good. If Wu Qinghe's mother were to also threaten to kill him, Li Wushou really wouldn't know what to do.

But did I just refuse the opportunity the other party offered?
Although he didn't know what the opportunity was, Li Wushou wanted to say that he was a little regretful!

The Great Venerable Yanwu and the Abbot of Xuanhuang Temple greeted the Immortal Lotus Venerable with open arms and returned the greeting.

Not to mention that Immortal Lotus Venerable is a Great Venerable, enough to earn the respect of both of them, just the fact that the other party's husband, their neighbor, the Great Venerable Zhenhai of Fubo Domain, is enough to give the two of them a hard time.

The other party is not someone who is easy to reason with!
What's more, the other party's family has an ancestor who has lived for ten thousand years.

Although the two were being polite, if Immortal Lotus Venerable really committed a bloody crime in the Central Region, they would also have to give an explanation to one of their subordinates.

Therefore, after the two returned the greeting, the Abbot of Xuanhuang Temple looked at the Immortal Lotus Venerable with a solemn expression.

"Now that Immortal Lotus Venerable is here in person, he will surely give me and Fellow Daoist Yanwu an explanation for today's events."

Upon hearing this, Venerable Yanwu nodded. He did not speak, but immediately supported the words of Abbot Xuanhuang.

They do respect Immortal Lotus Venerable, but if Immortal Lotus Venerable does not respect them, they will not compromise themselves!
If the Great Venerables were to completely turn against each other, then neither of their forces would be able to roam freely in the world.

Seeing this, the Immortal Lotus Venerable remained calm and unperturbed.

Turning to Li Wushou, he whispered:

"Lord of Hungry Ghost Mountain, take out the Heavenly Flame Seed, and also take out those two human skin contracts."

Upon hearing the title "Immortal Lotus Venerable," Li Wushou, who was bowing, had a glint in his eyes and a smile on his lips. He then took out the Heavenly Flame Seed and the Human Skin Contract from his divine aperture.

Just as he was about to hand them over to Grand Venerable Yanwu and Abbot Xuanhuang, he saw Venerable Xianlian reach out first and take the two items. At the same time, a voice transmission resounded in Li Wushou's mind.

"You didn't pay attention to Yanwu and Xuanhuang's concealment for a moment, but if they get closer, who knows what might happen."

Li Wushou's heart skipped a beat, and he realized that he had been careless.

I still need to be more vigilant when facing the Great Venerable!

On the other side, Immortal Lotus Venerable had already turned around and handed the Heavenly Flame Seed to Flame Martial Venerable. After Flame Martial Venerable received it, Immortal Lotus Venerable said calmly:

"The Luo family's occupation of the Yanyang Mountains was indeed to cultivate a sacred domain and provide for the Heavenly Flame Seed, so this sacred domain is indeed related to the Luo family."

However, this Heavenly Flame Seed was created through fire worship, not blood sacrifice; Fellow Daoist Yanwu, you can see this clearly.”

As he finished speaking, he handed the human skin document to the abbot of Xuanhuang Temple and said again:
"Unfortunately, this sacred domain was also discovered by the Spirit Sealing Path. What's even more bizarre is that they sealed the heavens and the earth."

Moreover, the person who sealed the spirits is quite interesting; these are skins that the Hungry Ghost Mountain Lord plucked from their bodies. Fellow Daoist Xuanhuang will recognize this at a glance.

The abbot of Xuanhuang Temple took the human skin and unfolded it. After seeing the contents and signature on the skin, he murmured softly:

"The Great Celestial Venerable of Immortal Mountain and the Earth Mother Venerable!"

The onlookers, including Xueyan, were stunned. They had left the Holy Domain in a hurry and had not witnessed Li Wushou's exploits of the skin-peeling man and the yellow-robed man.

Upon discovering the inscription from the Immortal Mountain, coupled with the explanation given by the Immortal Lotus Venerable, the group began to waver.

Could it be that the Azure Lotus Luo Clan has been wronged? On the other side, after observing the Heavenly Flame Seed, the Great Venerable Yanwu exchanged a glance with the Xuanhuang Abbot beside him, both of them with inscrutable expressions.

Although neither of them spoke, Li Wushou, who had been observing their expressions, sensed a hint of solemnity from them.

When the other party heard that Fenglingdao was hunting people, they only showed a trace of anger.

It seems that Mount Bulao still put some pressure on the two of them.

Whether the two believed what Immortal Lotus Venerable said is actually not important!

Judging from their appearance and their attitude towards Immortal Lotus Venerable, Li Wushou always felt that Great Venerable Yanwu and Abbot Xuanhuang were not that confident.

When facing powerful forces at the Grand Venerable level, they don't seem as formidable as one might imagine.

It seems that it will be difficult to directly provoke the two of them to launch an attack on the Sealing Spirit Path.

After a moment's hesitation, the two returned the Heavenly Flame Seed and the Human Skin Contract to Immortal Lotus Venerable.

No one mentioned why the Immortal Lotus Venerable watched his subordinates die without offering any assistance.

Asking this question will only make you uncomfortable; it serves no purpose whatsoever.

Regardless of whether Xianlian Zun's explanation contained all the facts and truth, it had already given the two people enough respect and a way out. They even had to thank Xianlian Zun for providing them with these two human skin contracts.

After bowing apologetically to the Immortal Lotus Venerable, the Abbot of Xuanhuang Temple spoke:
"Thank you, Immortal Lotus Venerable, for informing me of the news about the Immortal Mountain."

Yanwu, the Grand Venerable, also expressed his gratitude. They were indeed indebted to Fengling Dao. Even if they fought to the death, it would not shake the foundation of the two. At most, there would be some casualties among their subordinates.

Even if they all died, to be honest, the two of them wouldn't care too much.

Therefore, as long as they don't die, it's not a big deal.

They have enough time to protect those they value within their own sanctuary.

But if Fenglingdao joins forces with Immortal Mountain, then it will be different!

Which great upheaval in the world has not destroyed the Holy Realm and the Divine Realm of Mount Immortal?

Moreover, the methods of the Great Celestial Venerable and the Earth Mother Venerable are naturally restrained by them.

Being targeted by them is not good news!

Moreover, Feng Lingdao is also entangled with the other party. Could it be that the Sparrow Lord has already sided with the Immortal Mountain?
This is even worse news.

After thanking them, the two had no intention of lingering there.

In a wisp of void, two mustard seed-sized ferry crossings were moved into the Flaming Sun Mountains. Blood Flame, Kun Mountain, and the Earth Spirit Abbot then entered the Holy Domain.

Zi Zhen, leaving behind the Fire Worship Cult Leader, also entered the cult at Li Wushou's command.

Upon seeing this, the Great Venerable Yanwu and the Abbot of Xuanhuang Temple exchanged a few pleasantries with the Venerable Immortal Lotus before disappearing from the spot.

They need to go back and discuss strategies for dealing with Fenglingdao and Bulaoshan.

Luo Zhenyi and Luo Xuanxu straightened up, and Luo Zhenyi muttered arrogantly:

"They thought they were so great, so what if they invited a great master? They still ended up slinking away in disgrace."

Immortal Lotus Venerable glanced at the other party, and Luo Zhenyi's heart trembled. He quickly fell silent, then, as if remembering something, he and Luo Xuanxu bowed down again, respectfully saying:
"We were unaware of the arrival of the Immortal Lotus Venerable, and we beg the Immortal Lotus Venerable's forgiveness."

Immortal Lotus Venerable looked at the two of them, then changed the subject and asked:
"Now that the Heavenly Flame Seed matter is settled, is the Luo Clan of Golden Flame Mountain willing to return to the Azure Lotus Sacred Domain?"

Luo Zhenyi and Luo Xuanxu exchanged a glance. Luo Xuanxu composed himself and tentatively replied:

"We, Immortal Lotus Venerable, wish to remain in the Central Region and await further instructions."

Before Luo Xuanxu could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Immortal Lotus Venerable waving his hand.

"Then you may all return to Golden Flame Mountain!"

After speaking, the Immortal Lotus Venerable glanced discreetly at Li Wushou, who was standing not far from the two of them, and decided not to say anything more.

She gave him the opportunity, but he refused; he can't blame anyone else for his death.

Turning around, he saw Li Wushou looking at him, and Immortal Lotus Venerable said softly:
"follow me!"

After saying that, he flashed away and headed deep into the Yanyang Mountains.

Li Wushou glanced at Luo Zhenyi and Luo Xuanxu, a smile appearing on his lips, before chasing after Immortal Lotus Venerable.

But the moment he turned around, Li Wushou's smile vanished.

After all, Immortal Lotus Venerable doesn't seem like the kind of person who would give others a second chance!
