Chapter 1781: Chapter 1778: The Past of Divine Fire Daoist_1 Chapter 1781: Chapter 1778: The Past of Divine Fire Daoist_1 “Is this really true?” Yang Chen was uncertain.

“Absolutely true. If Young Master Yang Chen does not believe it, I can take you to see our Qingyu Gate. This battlefield was also visited by the Divine Fire Daoist in the past, and he left many traces behind. I can take Young Master Yang Chen to see it for himself, and by then, whether it’s true or false, Young Master Yang Chen would have a clear understanding.” Luo Yihong said gently.

Yang Chen hesitated for a moment, then asked, “Does Miss Luo know why the Divine Fire Daoist disappeared and left Qingyu Gate back then?”

Luo Yihong calmly replied, “This matter traces back to a very distant history. However, I still remember clearly that in the beginning, the Divine Fire Ancestor followed an elder named Jingming Daoist and left, apparently because of some kind of bet. We had thought that the Divine Fire Ancestor would return after finishing his business, but he never came back, and we still don’t know what exactly happened between him and that Jingming Daoist. Unfortunately, my Family Master has been thinking about the Divine Fire Ancestor, but has never received any news from him.”

Upon hearing this, Yang Chen secretly smiled bitterly. Luo Yihong’s words were actually true. It was indeed because the Divine Fire Daoist had boarded the “pirate ship” of the Jingming Daoist that he never returned.

As for what kind of bet was made between the two, he did not know either, nor did he know whether the Jingming Daoist was a member of the human race. All he knew was that the Jingming Daoist intended to cultivate outstanding successors.

As he thought about it, Yang Chen had other doubts and asked, “Oh? Your Family Master? May I know who that elder is…?”

“My Family Master is known as the White Star Taoist! If Young Master Yang Chen knows the whereabouts of the Divine Fire Ancestor, please inform me. My master has been looking for him for such a long time.” Luo Yihong said.

By now, Yang Chen understood that Luo Yihong was looking for the Divine Fire Daoist mainly for her master.

However, it must be said that Luo Yihong seemed quite sincere and didn’t seem to have any ulterior motives.

That was why he fell into deep thought, unsure whether to reveal the truth or not.

Just as he hesitated, suddenly, the voice of the Divine Fire Daoist was lingering in Yang Chen’s mind.

“Yang Chen, regarding my matters, remember, don’t mention a word!” The Divine Fire Daoist said.

Yang Chen couldn’t help but feel puzzled, “Elder Shenhuo, why are you doing this?”

The Divine Fire Daoist had no intention of wasting words, and snorted, “Just do as I say and don’t ask more.”

When the conversation ended, his voice disappeared, leaving Yang Chen feeling both amused and annoyed.

He could only say, “I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint Miss Luo. I really don’t know anything about the whereabouts of the Divine Fire Daoist.”

Luo Yihong looked deeply into Yang Chen’s eyes and detected no unusual fluctuations, which made her partly believe him.

However, she did not immediately drive Yang Chen away, but said, “In that case, I must have been reckless. I won’t ask further about the Divine Fire Ancestor. As for you, Young Master Yang, since you are a guest, why not stay with us for a few more days? Many disciples from our Qingyu Gate admire you very much.”

Yang Chen was surprised to see that Luo Yihong’s attitude towards him remained unchanged and had not changed at all.

At first, it made sense for Luo Yihong to be humble and respectful to him because she thought he might know the whereabouts of the Divine Fire Daoist; but now that he had clearly stated that he did not know, even if her attitude didn’t change dramatically, it would have shifted slightly. Yet she still treated him respectfully. This either meant that Luo Yihong was genuinely kind-hearted, or she had ulterior motives.

Yang Chen decided to believe in the latter, and said with a hint of coldness in his tone, “Miss Luo, let’s not beat around the bush. I don’t need to stay here any longer. Now that I don’t know where the Divine Fire Daoist is, there’s no point in continuing this conversation. If Miss Luo truly wants my Taichi True Scripture cultivation method, I have no intention of hiding it and I will immediately return it to Qingyu Gate, as it originally belonged to your sect, and it’s only right for me to return it.”

Luo Yihong smiled gracefully, realizing that Yang Chen had misunderstood her, and said patiently, “Young Master Yang, you have misunderstood. Although the Taichi True Scripture is precious, the Qingyu Gate has long ceased to focus primarily on the cultivation of fire techniques. Therefore, this cultivation method does not hold great significance to our sect. Even if we take it back, it won’t have any good effects, and will only make the disciples aim too high, causing more harm than good. I am not trying to take your Taichi True Scripture, but if I have any intentions, it is because you have a connection with the Divine Fire Daoist. My master has a deep connection with the Divine Fire Ancestor, and I really hope Young Master Yang can join our Qingyu Gate.”

Yang Chen was stunned and fell silent for a moment.

Perhaps because she thought Yang Chen was moved, Luo Yihong’s eyes lit up and she quickly said, “Young Master Yang, don’t worry. Our Qingyu Gate will handle the matters with the Xuandao Sect properly.”

Yang Chen waved his hand, “Miss Luo, please give up. I, Yang Chen, may not be particularly wise, but I know how to be wholehearted in my actions. The Xuandao Sect treats me well, and I cannot abandon my own sect and switch to your sect just because of some small benefits you offer. So Miss Luo, please give up your idea. However, if Miss Luo needs my help in the future, I will not refuse. I may not be able to offer much, but I can contribute some small efforts.”

“In that case, I really appreciate your help, Young Master Yang.” Luo Yihong smiled faintly. “Would you like to take a stroll around this courtyard with me?”

Yang Chen could tell that Luo Yihong was enjoying their conversation, not because of his charm, but purely because of her connection with the Divine Fire Daoist.

It seemed that her master and the Divine Fire Daoist were very close. Moreover, when the Divine Fire Daoist mentioned the name White Star Daoist, his emotions were stirred, and he immediately told Yang Chen not to reveal his whereabouts, which indicated their relationship was ambiguous.

For this reason, Yang Chen decided to act on his own and asked curiously, “Miss Luo, what was the relationship between Elder White Star and the Divine Fire Daoist back then?”

“I’m not afraid of Young Master Yang laughing at this, but my Family Master used to be a junior of the Divine Fire Daoist, and in terms of seniority, my Family Master would also call the Divine Fire Daoist ‘Senior Uncle’.” Luo Yihong smiled bitterly, “This matter is not a secret, and in theory, there should be no friction between my Family Master and the Divine Fire Daoist. However, my Family Master is stubborn and took a liking to the temperament and character of the Divine Fire Ancestor.”
