"hey-hey……"

Seeing my strange expression, Xia Wuren couldn't help but grinned, and even stopped on purpose. After Zuo Pengyun, Deng Lao and others walked away for a while, he lowered his voice and said: "How is it? Did you think of something?

?”

"Well--"

I guess I thought of it, but I didn't have the nerve to say it. After all, it was too amazing. If I didn't do it, I would definitely be laughed to death by Xia Wuren.

The four words "Tao transforms yin and yang" naturally make me think of the yin and yang Tao diagram in my body, but I dare not continue to think about it. After all, I have just reached the peak of "refining gods and transforming emptiness"

There is still a long way to go before the legendary "Refining the Void and Transforming the Tao" realm. Whether it can be broken through is still open to question. How can we dare to hope for the higher level of "Tao Transforming Yin and Yang"?

"Oh……"

Seeing that I was silent, Xia Wuren did not ask further questions, but muttered with an inscrutable expression: "I have to say, this is indeed a very crazy idea, and I am looking forward to it!"

After finishing speaking, he didn't say a single word more, and immediately chased Zuo Pengyun and Mr. Deng in front of him.

As for me, my head was filled with confusion, and I had no idea what he meant by what he said. I shook my head, cleared my mind of all the messy thoughts, and followed suit.

"Nine Heavens Ten Thousand Blessings Palace" was as magnificent as ever. As soon as they arrived, the disciples guarding the gate came straight to greet them and whispered into Zuo Pengyun's ears.

"Okay! I get it!"

Nodding slightly, Zuo Pengyun then turned around and said directly to Mr. Deng and Xia Wuren: "I'm sorry, my father is not in Jiuxiao Wanfu Palace now. I would like to invite some of you to sit in the main hall for a while. I

Go and invite him over now!”

As he said this, he glanced at the disciple just now. The disciple immediately understood and quickly made an invitation gesture towards us.

"Please, Master Zuo!"

I nodded and was about to follow Mr. Deng and Xia Wuren into the "Jiuxiao Wanfu Palace" to wait, but I was stopped by Zuo Pengyun on the spot: "Wang Lin, please wait a moment!"

Before I could react, Zuo Pengyun said with a smile on his face: "My father invites you to come over. He wants to talk to you alone first!"

Zuo Qingmei invites me to come over and have a chat alone?

As soon as I said this, I couldn't help but frown slightly, and subconsciously glanced at Xia Wuren and Mr. Deng aside.

"Oh……"

Mr. Deng smiled slightly, then waved his hand and said: "Since the old master invites you alone, you can go with the left master!"

At the same time, Xia Wuren couldn't help but nodded to me, and secretly gave me a reassuring look.

"Um!"

Since neither of them objected, I couldn't say much, so I nodded and followed Zuo Pengyun and left here.

I don’t know what Zuo Qingmei wants from me, why he still wants to carry Mr. Deng and Xia Wuren on his back?

When I think about it, I will have to face a strong man who is suspected of breaking through the realm of earthly immortals. I feel a little nervous. What's more, the other person has a lot of grudges with me before. If he offends the other person, he should

You're not going to kill me with one slap, are you?

But nervousness is nervousness. Now that we have come to Maoshan Sect, there are some things that we can’t hide from even if we want to. Instead of shrinking back and being looked down upon by others, it’s better to face it calmly. No matter what, I can’t kill my grandfather.

Isn't it famous?

Perhaps because he didn't want Zuo Qingmei to wait too long, Zuo Pengyun walked very quickly. We hurried all the way and finally arrived at the "Yuanfu Wanning Palace" located on the south side of "Jijin Peak" in Maoshan Mountain.

Apparently, Zuo Qingmei should be in the "Yuanfu Wanning Palace".

Sure enough, as soon as I arrived at the gate of "Yuanfu Wanning Palace", Zuo Pengyun smiled directly at me and said: "Go in, my father-in-law will be waiting for you inside!"

With that said, he personally opened the door of "Yuanfu Wanning Palace" for me.

"call--"

Taking a deep breath, I walked straight in without any hesitation. Once I got closer, I really felt that the mysterious feeling before became stronger and stronger. With this wonderful feeling, I

After taking many detours, we came straight to a small courtyard in the deepest part of "Yuanfu Wanning Palace".

Perhaps they had already noticed my arrival. The courtyard door was open. As soon as I approached, a slightly ethereal voice came from the courtyard: "The door is not closed, come in!"

"oh!"

Anyway, we have already reached this step, so I didn’t think too much and stepped into the small courtyard.

What surprised me quite a bit was that the furnishings in the small courtyard were extremely ordinary. Just based on the furnishings inside, you would never see any trace of an expert living here in seclusion.

On the contrary, it was more like a very ordinary farmyard, because there was even a group of chickens raised inside. A gray-haired old man was feeding them with broken rice grains.

Could this be Zuo Qingmei, who has broken through the realm of Earthly Immortal?

Judging from the look between his brows, he does look somewhat similar to Zuo Pengyun, but he lives such a simple life. Did he come to raise chickens in this small courtyard?

"Coming?"

While I was wondering, Zuo Qingmei pointed directly at the stone table and chair beside me: "Please sit down!"

"oh!"

By now, I was becoming more and more confused as to what he meant by this. But since it was him who took the initiative to invite me, I was not polite to him. I sat down without saying a word and continued at the same time.

Considered him.

It's a blessing, not a curse, and it can't be avoided. When I think about it, I'm not so nervous anymore. I want to see what kind of medicine is sold in Zuo Qingmei's gourd.

After finishing eating the broken rice grains in his hand, Zuo Qingmei walked over calmly, smiled slightly, and sat down in front of the stone table, with an approachable face and said: "You know why I am

Do I want to invite you here alone?"

After all, the other party is a master of the Earthly Immortal Realm. I still have the most basic respect for him, so I quickly stood up, bowed my hands to him respectfully, and then said with neither humility nor arrogance: "I don't know, senior, please tell me clearly."

!”

"Oh……"

Seeing me standing up, Zuo Qingmei immediately smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, you don't have to be too formal. After all, you can be considered as half a disciple of my Maoshan Sect! The last leader's token

For one thing, we owe you a favor. We came to see you this time just to catch up on old times, so you don’t have to be too wary!"

"All right!"

I said in my heart, even if I want to be on guard, I have to have the strength to do so. In front of you, no matter how guarded I am, if you really want to attack me, I will never be able to resist.

So he nodded and continued to sit back on the stone chair.

Just as Zuo Qingmei said, it seems that he came to me alone just to reminisce about old times. Apart from telling me some things that happened between him and my grandfather back then, he never said anything else.

This is strange. If it is just for a long time, then there is no need for him to invite me here alone?

If it's been a long time, then Xia Wuren is even his junior brother, so why don't he come to Xia Wuren to reminisce about old times?

Furthermore, as one of the mainstays of the Zhengdao family, he should have had a lot of dealings with Mr. Deng. He should have been looking for Mr. Deng and Xia Wuren for a long time. No matter how you calculate it, it won’t be my turn.

?

Thinking about it this way, this matter is by no means as simple as reminiscing about old times. He must have other purposes, but he has not made it clear to me yet.

In his words, he and my grandfather didn't seem to have much difference, but more like like-minded people in another sense.

Although I was somewhat dissatisfied with this, I did not refute his words, but listened quietly, waiting for him to express his true intention.

However, what left me quite speechless was that, as a dignified and powerful Earth Immortal, he was nagging like an old woman. He spent nearly half an hour talking and never mentioned anything serious.

"Well--"

But I was really a little impatient. Taking advantage of his pause, I couldn't help but interrupt him quickly and said with a smile: "Senior, you might as well speak up if you have something to say. This will be good for everyone! After all, Mr. Deng and King Fu are still

They are waiting for us at the "Nine Heavens Wanfu Palace"!"

"Oh……"

Zuo Qingmei seemed to be waiting for me to take the initiative to mention it. She smiled slightly and then said: "Very good! In that case, I will get straight to the point!"

"..."

I looked at him quite speechlessly, and I said to myself: You should have been like this a long time ago. You have been saying useless words for a long time. Is it interesting?

After straightening up, Zuo Qingmei asked with a serious face: "Last time you and Xia Wuren entered Qingxu Cave, you must have also been to that wild place, right?"

"certainly!"

I nodded affirmatively. Of course I will not deny it, and there is no need to deny it. As the former head of Maoshan Sect, Zuo Qingmei naturally knows very clearly about the Qingxu Cave leading to Manghuang. Even if I want to

Concealing it, I definitely can't hide this from him.

"That's good!"

Zuo Qingmei was not surprised when I readily admitted it, so he continued to ask: "Do you know that in this wild land, there is actually a node that leads directly to purgatory?"

"Um?"

As soon as I said this, my expression changed. I really didn’t know this! Moreover, Xia Wuren had never told me about this matter. With the relationship between Xia Wuren and I, there is no doubt that he deliberately concealed it from me.

It's very small, which means that even Xia Wuren probably doesn't know about it.

"It seems you don't know!"

Seeing me frowning, Zuo Qingmei had obviously guessed my answer, and then said with a solemn look on his face: "To be honest, when I was in seclusion, I once accidentally wandered outside and discovered the seal of the purgatory node in the wilderness.
To be continued...
