Chapter 878: Chapter 600: Return to Western Hong, the Venerated Arrival_3

Ever since Shen Yi had left the Nanyang Treasure Land, he had been under the care of Senior Xuanqing. Whether it was the Hongmeng Purple Qi or the initial introduction to seek Elixirs at the Treasure Flower Sect, even as far as personally going to the Seven Sects to ask for help.

These actions had bought him a lot of time.

This debt of gratitude, he must repay.

Shen Yi was not a man of indecision. He was determined to obtain the East Hong Dragon Cave, but these Purple-Bearded White Dragons were quite unreasonable. Aside from Fairy Zi Ling, who had ascended to heaven, he could hardly find any pretext to deal with them.

To put it bluntly, a big reason why the Yue Family had not come to investigate Southern Hong and allowed him to smoothly deal with the South Dragon King was because East Dragon Palace had helped to cover things up.

Back when he dealt with the Bright Moon Frost Tiger Clan, it was the Yushan Dragon Consort who had blocked An Tingfeng; otherwise, the outcome might have been different.

As for Fairy Zi Ling... even these Sect Masters and Xuanqing himself have differentiated this Immortal’s mount from the East Dragon Palace, addressing each separately and not conflating the two. It wasn’t his place to seek vengeance.

If possible, Shen Yi did not want to be ungrateful. If there was another solution, that would certainly be better.

Of course, this was predicated on the assumption that East Dragon Palace was opposed to the Immortals.

Shen Yi glanced sidelong towards the west.

Clearly, the Yushan Dragon Consort was preparing some kind of plan. If possible, he too would like to know how East Dragon Palace intended to deal with the Immortals. Having an additional option should not be a bad thing.

"When do we set out?"

Ji Jingxi waited until Shen Yi had finished thinking before softly asking.

As the pair stood side by side entering their field of vision, the several Sect Masters suddenly felt nostalgic. Nanyang and Qing Yue, shining together, a sight that had not been seen in many years.

One could only wonder if the glow of this sun and moon could once again be spread across Hongze.

"If there’s nothing else, we can leave now."

Shen Yi stepped out of the Ancestral Master Hall, mindful that his Golden Body was still trapped within the Northern Hong Immortal Palace.

He had never suffered such an indignity since arriving in this world.

Any further delay, and the merit Qinghua gained from neutralizing the hundred thousand year calamity would become someone else’s.

Faced with Shen Yi’s hasty decision, not a single person raised an objection.

Ji Jingxi, Ye Jiu, and Qi Yansheng followed suit.

Under the gaze of several Daozi waiting outside, the four figures gradually vanished, leaving the Nanyang Treasure Land, each using their Divine Skills to soar rapidly towards the west.

Accompanied by the Treasure Flower Sect Master, Xuanqing’s expression was complex as he followed.

"I..."

"Don’t drag yourself into everything. Do you still think you’re the peerless genius from back in the day?"

The Treasure Flower Sect Master frowned at him, then gestured with an outstretched hand.

Xuanqing looked over, only to see Su Hongxiu and several other young Daozi leading the way, their eyes fervently fixed on the direction the Sect Masters were heading.

Influenced by Shen Yi, these younger generations could no longer contain their restless hearts and continue to live in seclusion like their sifu.

"Besides, don’t you want to see Sect Master Shen, like Senior Qin, sitting high in the clouds, shoulder to shoulder with the strong?" The Treasure Flower Sect Master smiled expectantly.

"I think..."

Xuanqing withdrew his gaze and with a change in tone, he sighed, "But he doesn’t."

To the surprised look from the Treasure Flower Sect Master, Xuanqing rubbed his face forcefully, murmuring, "The Sect Master does not want to be compared with anyone; he’s fine sitting anywhere, but he won’t tolerate anyone above him."

With these words, everyone present turned back in astonishment, and the atmosphere became as silent as if the crows and sparrows had been stilled.
