I have no idea where the Sect Recall Order has taken her!”

Ningning Mu stared at her master’s retreating figure as he rode away on a cloud, lost in thought for a while.

She then returned to her meditation cushion and took a small wooden puppet from her sleeve to place it in front of her, keeping her company as she sat in meditation.

In the bamboo forest beyond the main peak’s rear mountain.

Li Dazhi was disturbed by the sound of the bell, his eyebrows slightly raised as if he was about to awaken from deep meditation.

“Just focus on your cultivation,”

Daoist Kongming said slowly:

“An Immortal from our sect has been attacked by a group after discovering treasure in an ancient site, and the Sect Leader is now gathering Immortals from every peak to go out to their rescue.”

“You concentrate on ascending to Immortality,”

“Master,” Li Dazhi said softly, “I seem to lack some enlightenment.

I always feel that I’m missing just a sliver.”

“Keep waiting,” said Daoist Kongming warmly, “becoming an Immortal is never easy.

It is not a threshold you can cross solely with talent.

One needs to resonate with The Great Dao, and you will be able to do it.”

“Yes.”

Li Dazhi exhaled softly, his mind somewhat in disarray.

Understanding his own disciple well, Daoist Kongming took out the Yin-Yang Mirror, intending to check on Li Ping’an’s safety.

However, his wrinkled old face visibly stiffened.

The Yin-Yang Mirror, had it lost its effectiveness?

There were only two possibilities:

Either the other Yin-Yang Mirror was too far away, or it was within a powerful array that blocked all detection.

After all, this was just a communication treasure he had casually refined years ago, not a Spiritual Treasure, easily disturbed and rendered ineffective by various arrays.

After a brief contemplation, Daoist Kongming didn’t say anything to Li Dazhi but directly passed down orders to the current Sect Leader of Wanyun Sect within the grand hall, instructing them to keep an eye out for Li Ping’an’s whereabouts and safety as they head south.

The Sect Leader received the command from the founding ancestor, called two inner sect elders, and asked them to go ahead to Wan’an City and search for traces of Li Ping’an.

Half an hour later, the Wanyun Sect’s celestial light soared into the sky, and hundreds of Immortals turned into rainbow lights and sped towards the shore of the East Sea.

The development of events took the Wanyun Sect Leader by surprise.

Two hours later, the two Heavenly Immortal elders on their way to the Immortal Dynasty sent back news:

The group of treasure-hunting Immortals had tracked Qing Su to the Immortal Dynasty, injuring over a hundred disciples stationed there, fortunately, most without lethal force.

The Immortals of Wanyun Sect immediately changed their course, rushing from the shores of the East Sea to the Immortal Dynasty.

The group of Immortals who were after Qing Su scattered at the news, the majority leaving but a stubborn few not willing to give up, continued their search for clues everywhere.

Such turmoil lasted a whole day, during which the Immortals of Wanyun Sect intercepted and killed dozens of enemy Immortals, confirming that Qing Su was hiding within the mundane Immortal Dynasty.

At this time, only the Sect Leader and a few inner sect elders knew that Li Ping’an, who was previously involved in external sect trials, had also vanished.

It seemed that Li Ping’an had some sort of intersection with Qing Su.

What happened next was quite embarrassing for the Immortals of the Wanyun Sect…

They turned the Immortal Dynasty upside down, finding neither Li Ping’an nor Qing Su.

After two days, Gongmin Chen arrived at Wanyun Sect, finally bringing accurate news—Li Ping’an and Wei Yanzu had rescued Qing Su, now hiding from the pursuit of powerful experts.

But when a few elders of Wanyun Sect, accompanied by Gongmin Chen, reached the first hideout of Li Ping’an and his group, they discovered the underground cave dwelling had been blasted apart, with remnants of the Dao Charm of three or four Heavenly Immortals lingering.

Qing Su’s whereabouts were elusive;

Ping’an was nowhere to be found.

For a moment, the entire Immortal Dynasty was enveloped in an eerie atmosphere.

Immortals flew chaotically in the sky, mundane soldiers searched door to door, and people in a hundred great cities were filled with panic.

…

Meanwhile;

On the shore of the East Sea, in Dafang Town not far from where the ancient relic had emerged.

Li Ping’an, having changed his appearance, sat within the Spirit Gathering Array in the upper chamber of an inn, pondering his next plan of action.

They should have shaken off their pursuers by now.

Next, their only task was to bring Qing Su back to the sect safely, and the mission would be complete.

‘I wonder what kind of reward the sect will give.’

Three feet in front of Li Ping’an sat a female Immortal wearing an Ice Blue Long Dress.

A dreadful wound on her shoulder was slowly healing, strands of black energy constantly seeping out.

“I owe you my life,”

the female Immortal said, her voice somewhat cold and hard.

“Elder, you’re too kind,” Li Ping’an said with a smile, “just repay me with a Golden Immortal life-saving pill someday.”

“Mm.”
