After the cave manorâs owner welcomed the Daoist, he didnât remain courteous. Instead, he went straight to the point, âIndeed, Iâve invited you here to discuss something.â
âWhat do you want to talk about?â The Daoist appearance middle-aged man took the wine goblet on the table and drank it.
The cave manorâs owner wasnât in a rush to the main point. Instead, he first asked, âPreviously, you have been busy refining pills. How much do you know of whatâs happening in the outside world?â
The Daoist said frankly, âAfter coming out of seclusion, he had heard of some of the huge matters that happened.â
âFinally, we can leave this place. We wonât have to hide within the Astro Mountains Starry Sea any longer.â
For the entire Demon Race that lived and bred by the Astro Mountains Starry Sea, this was a grand matter worthy of showing solicitude, especially for the top-notch Demon Race bigwig experts.
âI heard that the Heavenly Courtâs Divine Palaceâs Pill Hall had also resurfaced within the world.â Speaking until here, a few hints of greed were leaking out from his eyes.
âOh, right. It seems like a new Grand Heavenly Immortal had appeared within the Daoismâs Three Clear Lineage?â More hints of envy appeared beneath his eyes.
The owner of the cave manor nodded, âThatâs right.â
The Daoist returned to his senses and looked at the cave manorâs owner, âWhy did you invite me here for?â
âHavenât you always been wanting to cause troubles to the Incongruence Divine Motherâs successors?â said the cane manorâs owner, âThereâs an opportunity for you to do so now.â
The Daoist showed a face of doubt, âIâve never heard anything about the Incongruence Divine Motherâs perishment.â
âIndeed, the Incongruence Divine Mother had yet to perish. However, the chance is still here.â The cave manorâs owner shrugged, âThe Nine-headed Great Sage had come out of seclusion recently.â
âThe Nine-headed Great Sage doesnât even hold any grudges against the Incongruence Divine Mother.â The Daoist slanted his eyes, the suspicion on his face growing thicker.
The owner of the cave manor sneered, âBut, the Nine-headed Great Sage had suffered a huge loss by the hands of the Jade Clear lineageâs successor.â
Upon mentioning this, the Daoistâs eyes moved, and the suspicion on his face faded. A look of contemplation slowly appeared on his face, âDo you mean...â
âYou might have known that the Nine-headed Great Sage had suffered a huge loss against the Jade Clearâs Primordial Heavenly Lordâs successor â the Jade Cauldron Cultivated Deityâs disciple,â said the cave manorâs owner. âWhat you didnât know is that thereâs a continuation of the Jade Cauldron Cultivated Deityâs lineage within the Jade Clear successors.â
The Daoist was now interested. He looked at the cave manorâs owner, waiting for him to continue talking.
âAfter the Great Calamity, an extraordinary person appeared within the Jade Clear lineage. His name was Yan Xintang, as heâs a disciple of the Jade Cauldronâs lineage.â The cave manor did not disappoint him. âWhile Yan Xintang himself had already perished, he has some descendants left behind.â
âIf what I heard is true, the Heavenly Courtâs Divine Palaceâs Pill Hall had fallen into the hands of Yan Xintangâs grandson, Yan Zhaoge.â
As he spoke, he looked at that Daoist, âThat Yan Xintang had also wed a Prime Clear martial art practitioner as his wife. She is also an extremely talented person that appeared within the Prime Clear lineage after the Great Calamity.â
âIn other words, the current Heavenly Courtâs Divine Palaceâs Pill Hall had fallen into the hands of the descendants of the Jade Cauldron Cultivated Deity and the Incongruence Divine Mother.â
The owner of the cave manor chuckled and said, âWhat kind of reaction do you think that the Nine-headed Great Sage would give? While itâs hard to locate the Pill Hall now, the Prime Clear successors are still within the Dao universe. In fact, Iâve heard that their relationship is quite close. In fact, they had been in contact during the past few years. Only, they had been cautious, and we werenât able to expose it.â
âThatâs smart!â The Daoist touched his beard and smiled, âUsing the Incongruence Divine Motherâs successor to locate the Pill Hall.â
Very quickly, his smile subsided, âWait, that so-called Yan Xintang or Yan Zhaoge is merely a successor of the Jade Cauldronâs lineage. Would the Nine-headed even vent his anger on them?â
The owner of the cave manor smiled, âNot to mention whether they know the whereabouts of that person, they have the Heavenly Courtâs Divine Palaceâs Pill Hall. If the Nine-headed Great Sage were to take action, it would be two birds with one stone.â
He looked at that Daoist, âAbout the Pill Hall, we better not be too greedy. Naturally, itâll be great if we can receive some benefits. Even if there are none, canât you find an opportunity to vent your anger towards the Incongruence Divine Motherâs descendent?â
âHowever, the person that killed your disciples isnât alive anymore. Now, only her disciples remain in the world. You donât have to care too much about them.â
The Daoist snorted, âThat filthy woman killed my disciples, and deserves to die. Now, I shall take revenge against her disciples and grant them the fate they deserve.â
If someone could hold back the Incongruence Divine Mother, he would naturally have to worry less.
âErm... Wait. Didnât a new Grand Heavenly Immortal appear in the Jade Clear lineage? Other than that, the North Star Emperor and the Southern Extremity Longevity Emperor are still alive.â The Daoist suddenly remembered.
The owner of the cave manor nodded, âThatâs right. Although they might not be able to take any action, just like the Incongruence Divine Mother, thereâs still a possibility.â
âBut donât worry. Although weâre still fighting against the Western Pure Lands and the Immortal Court heretics, there are still other Great Sages here that have yet to make a move.â
The Daoist nodded, âIf thatâs the case, let us meet the Nine-headed Great Sage.â
âNo need to rush. Weâre not in a rush at the moment.â The cave manorâs owner halted him. âWithin the Daoismâs Three Clear Lineage, other than those few Heavenly Lords, the others shouldnât be underestimated as well. Besides, the Roving Jade Heavens is presided over by the Prime Clear lineage for a long amount of time, and therefore shouldnât be underestimated.â
âLet us find more assistance, as that would increase our chances of success.â The cave manorâs owner looked outside, âItâs about time.â
The Daoistâs eyes flickered and started contemplating within his heart.
Sure enough, after a short while, another servant brought someone inside.
The person that came in was shrouded in a layer of white moonlight. When the moonlight dissipated, a figure of a woman appeared.
âBrother, what did you call me here for?â After the woman greeted the cave manorâs owner, she looked at the Daoist in surprise, âIsnât this Daoist Hundred Eyes?â
The Daoist nodded, âYouâve become much more elegant.â
The cave manorâs owner said, âIndeed, I have something to discuss with you, which was why I invited you here.â
After explaining the matters, the woman frowned, âIndeed, the Awakened Sky Hall can only be lured out using this way. However...â
âCurrently, weâre still fighting against the Western Buddhist Lands and the Immortal Court. Although we still have some remaining forces, this would increase the chances of the few Daoism Heavenly Lords to take action. Wouldnât this spoil His Highnessâs plan?â She asked with hesitation.
âMoreover, thereâs a problem.â The woman looked at the Daoist, and said after hesitating for a while, âIs it wise to drag the Prime Clear successor into this? Some of our Great Sages had listened to the Prime Clear successorâs lectures.â
âAlthough the Nine-headed Great Sage might take action, shouldnât we consider these points as well?â
The Daoistâs expression turned dark and displayed a few hints of displeasure. However, he didnât voice out any refutation.
Instead, the cave manor owner smiled, âNo need to worry. At least, this wouldnât be a huge problem.â
