A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

Xia Jiuyou frowned, thinking to herself that An Miaoyi had indeed investigated her background.

So, is it because of this that An Miaoyi approached her?

......

Before long, an unnamed pressure silently enveloped the entire pavilion.

The oppressive aura wasn't violent, but the moment it appeared, all sound within the attic vanished. The wind outside the window, the distant clamor, even... the subtle sounds of spiritual energy flowing all fell silent.

Before long, the space in the center of the pavilion automatically separated, and a figure slowly stepped out from it.

He was an ordinary-looking old man. He wore a faded blue cloth long gown, his body was somewhat hunched, his face was covered with wrinkles, his eyes were cloudy and lifeless, he leaned on a withered wooden cane, and his steps were somewhat unsteady.

Yet, this very old man, standing there, stirred a deep tremor in An Miaoyi's soul.

It was as if he were not a person, but a deep and boundless starry sky, a desolate mountain that had been silent for eternity.

An Miaoyi's hand, holding the teacup, froze in mid-air.

Xia Jiuyou suddenly stood up, a look of surprise on her face:

"Master!"

"Hmm, my good disciple~"

Gai Jiuyou's gaze fell on Xia Jiuyou, and a barely perceptible gentleness flashed in his cloudy eyes, because he truly treated Xia Jiuyou as his daughter!

Chapter 210 Gai Jiuyou Arrives, the Fate of the Nine Nether Body

Gai Jiuyou looked at Xia Jiuyou with a very gentle and doting gaze.

Because, in addition to regarding Xia Jiuyou as his successor, he also regarded Xia Jiuyou as his daughter.

Although the Nine Nether Body is known as the Nine Nether Immortal Body, in ancient times, this physique also had another name: the Nine Nether Calamity Body.

Those who possess the Nine Netherworld Tribulation Body are mostly exceptionally talented and have outstanding comprehension, but they are destined to have a life full of hardships and bring disasters to themselves and those around them. Only after achieving great success can they completely solve this problem.

Xia Jiuyou was orphaned at a young age and lived a lonely life until he was adopted by Gai Jiuyou, at which point he was able to live a peaceful life.

Gai Jiuyou faced a similar situation when he was young, but he was much worse off than Xia Jiuyou. He didn't have a supreme being of the same constitution to adopt him, and he had to move forward alone all the time.

.......

Perhaps wanting to make up for his own childhood, and also having the idea of ​​raising Xia Jiuyou as his daughter, Gai Jiuyou dotes on Xia Jiuyou a lot.

Xia Jiuyou was also a good child who always wanted to find a divine medicine to heal his master's injuries and bring him back to his peak.

Gai Jiuyou was quite helpless about this.

At first, he would tell Xia Jiuyou the truth, saying that the medicine Xia Jiuyou found had almost no effect on him.

However, after seeing Xia Jiuyou's disappointed expression several times, he stopped saying that and only said that Xia Jiuyou did a good job, and that his situation had indeed improved because of her actions.

But... only he knows the truth.

He had taken a demigod medicine back then, and if even a demigod medicine couldn't heal his injuries, how could the medicine Xia Jiuyou found possibly cure them?

When Xia Jiuyou said he had found a divine medicine, Gai Jiuyou didn't pay much attention, treating it as the same as before.

But to everyone's surprise, Xia Jiuyou told him that she had obtained the sacred fruit from the forbidden ancient land.

And it's a set?

For such a momentous matter, Gai Jiuyou had no choice but to personally descend from the mountain and probe the truth of the matter.

......

Upon seeing Elder Gai arrive, Xia Jiuyou quickly stepped forward, intending to reach out and help him, but then remembered that her master never liked being helped, so she stopped halfway through reaching out.

"Master, there's no time to lose, I'll take you to see Brother Lin right away!"

"Brother Lin Dao..."

"My dear disciple, the Brother Lin you mentioned, is he the Holy Body Lin Xiu who has recently made a name for himself and is known as the Immortal Venerable?"

"Yes! That's him!"

“Okay, take me to see him.” A subtle glint flashed in the depths of Gai Jiuyou’s eyes.

"Yes, Master, please come with me!"

Xia Jiuyou immediately turned around and led the way.

An Miaoyi stood there, watching the master and disciple walk out of the pavilion one after the other.

Only after their figures disappeared around the corner of the stairs did the invisible pressure that enveloped them slowly dissipate.

Seeing Gai Jiuyou leave, An Miaoyi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Gai Jiuyou, who was invincible nine thousand years ago... has indeed lived to this day!"

An Miaoyi murmured to herself, her beautiful eyes filled with surprise.

What level has this peerless being, who was invincible nine thousand years ago, reached now?

An Miaoyi walked to the window and looked downstairs. Xia Jiuyou and Gai Jiuyou were walking slowly through the front courtyard of Miaoyu Nunnery towards the central courtyard where Lin Xiu was.

【Brother Lin, I've tried my best to buy you time. I hope you can handle this matter well; otherwise, the Miaoyu Nunnery can't afford to have a tantrum from a living fossil who's lived for nine thousand years.】

An Miaoyi sighed, feeling that Lin Xiu was probably going to be in trouble this time.

She could tell at a glance that Gai Jiuyou doted on Xia Jiuyou. If Gai Jiuyou knew that Xia Jiuyou had been tricked by Lin Xiu into deciding to have his child, she wondered how he would react.

In any case, let's tell Holy Lord Vivi about this first~

[It is said that the Tianxuan Holy Land also has a Saint, but he has now gone to another star field. If Saint Lord Weiwei can summon him back, perhaps she can suppress the situation.]

An Miaoyi acted swiftly upon receiving the plan, immediately sending someone to invite Weiwei over for a chat.

........

the other side.

Lin Xiu's side.

After seeing Xia Jiuyou off, Lin Xiu originally planned to meditate for a period of time, while waiting for Gai Jiuyou to arrive.

Unexpectedly, a cacophony of barking dogs and shouts of cursing suddenly erupted from the front courtyard of Miaoyu Nunnery.

"Woof! You bunch of useless trash from the Purple Mansion, what do you know!"

"The innate sacred body and Dao embryo are physiques destined to make one an emperor! For your Holy Maiden to unite with the sacred body is an immense blessing for your Purple Mansion!"

"Not only are you ungrateful, but you also dare to attack me, the Emperor? You are utterly ungrateful!"

"Such ungrateful people, I will take you as my concubines sooner or later!"

Black Emperor stood like a human, one paw on his hip, the other pointing at a group of Purple Mansion cultivators opposite him, spittle flying everywhere, a dog spitting at a group of people.

The people arguing with the Black Emperor were none other than the cultivators from the Purple Mansion Holy Land.

"Bullshit! You filthy dog, spewing filth! Our Holy Maiden is pure and immaculate; how dare you slander her like this!"

"Our Purple Mansion Holy Land has a long and rich history; we don't need a dead dog to pimp for us!"

"Take down this dead dog! Skin it and use its hide as a rug!"

The cultivators of the Purple Mansion were so angry that their faces turned red and their necks bulged. There were twenty or thirty of them, and they surrounded the Black Emperor, shouting curses in waves.

"Oh ho? So you're bullying the few with the many, huh?"

Black King was not intimidated at all. He glared at Copper Bell with his big eyes and his black fur stood on end.

"When I was traveling the world, your ancestors were still breastfeeding! How dare you challenge me? If I don't take you all as my concubines today, I'm not a Black Emperor!"

The Black Emperor stood like a cultivator, its claws touching each of the Purple Mansion cultivators one by one.

"You, you, and you too!"

"What are you looking at? I'm talking to you!"

"So you were the ones who insulted me the most just now? I've remembered you!"

"It will take at least three months, or as little as one month. Unless you stay by the side of a powerful being, I will definitely take you as my concubines!"

"If you know what's good for you, kneel down and call me master now, and I'll not only forgive you for what I did, but I'll also reward you with two bones. How about that? Not a bad deal, is it?"

Since being suppressed by Lin Xiu last time, the Black Emperor has learned his lesson and returned to Purple Mountain, breaking through a certain realm and finding more ways to save his life.

However, Lin Xiu was too abnormal. He broke through to the Sendai realm in just over a month. His methods were only good for bullying other low-level cultivators.

The cultivators of the Purple Mansion were all indignant at the Black Emperor's shamelessness, looking at him with eyes that seemed to want to eat dog meat.

"This is outrageous!"

"That damn dog is too arrogant!"

"Attack together! Kill it!"

"Kill the black dog! Eat dog meat! Today!"

The cultivators of the Purple Mansion were thoroughly enraged, and their various magical artifacts lit up, ready to make their move.

Lin Xiu rubbed his temples. If the Black Emperor's foul mouth continued to cause trouble, his reputation as "Immortal Venerable Lin Xiu" would be on par with that of "Shameless Taoist Duan De"!

Although the Black Emperor didn't mention his name, its insistence on the birth of the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo would make anyone think of him first, right?!

Although Lin Xiu was indeed quite interested in the innate Dao embryo, it wasn't to the point that he needed the Black Emperor's help.

As everyone knows, the Black Emperor's help only made things worse; in the original story, Tu Fei was still watching from Beiyuan!

.......

"Alright, let's just leave it quiet for now."

Lin Xiu quickly made a decision. With a wave of his hand, the Dao Heaven Mirror flew out from the Immortal Platform, its surface shimmering with a clear, hazy light, shining towards the Black Emperor.

"Woof? What the hell?!"

Before Black King could finish speaking, he was enveloped by the clear light of the Dao Heaven Mirror. His four paws left the ground, and the whole dog was sucked into the air, kicking its legs in vain.

"Lin brat, what are you doing! Put me down right now! I'm planning for your future! You're ungrateful!"

"The innate sacred body and Dao embryo must emerge!..."

The barking stopped abruptly as the Black Emperor was completely absorbed into the Dao Heaven Mirror. The mirror surface flashed with a faint light before quickly returning to calm.

Immediately afterwards, the Dao Heaven Mirror flew towards Lin Xiu and hovered in Lin Xiu's palm.
