Seeing that Indra had made a decision.
Li Bai and his companions did not waste any time.
After a brief discussion, the formation was assigned.
The War God Temple side: Di Shitian, Xiaoyaozi, and Li Taibai.
Shuiyue Cave Heaven: Dugu Qiubai, Dugu Jian, Zhang Daoling.
"In that case, let's act immediately."
They had finished forming their teams.
Ximen Yu sipped his tea and calmly gave the order.
Six people responded in unison.
After bowing in greeting.
He took his leave with high hopes.
As their figures disappeared.
The once noisy hall suddenly fell silent.
This tranquility did not last long.
Accompanied by approaching footsteps.
Baoqin went inside again to report.
"Master, there is a sorcerer outside who claims to be a clay bodhisattva requesting an audience."
The one who once divined for Xiong Ba?
Ximen Yu's eyes flickered slightly.
A hint of interest appeared on his face.
"Bring him in."
He took his zither and left to receive his orders.
A thin, middle-aged man, dressed in disheveled clothes, slowly walked in.
What's disturbing is...
Compared to sloppy attire.
The festering sores on his face were even more horrifying.
"The clay bodhisattva of Yunzhou pays homage to the Great Dragon Head."
The clay bodhisattva stopped and knelt in worship.
Without hesitation, he put both knees on the ground!
Xi Menyu raised his eyebrows slightly.
A playful smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He gazed intently at him and said softly:
"Speak, what brings you to see me?"
"I dare not conceal the truth; I have come here only to serve the Azure Dragon Society with utmost loyalty and devotion. I hope the Great Dragon Leader will grant my request."
The clay bodhisattva explained his purpose without hesitation.
His tone was extremely earnest.
He knew it.
The person before me is not as easy to deal with as Xiong Ba.
His life is probably in danger!
They dared not deceive anyone in the slightest.
"Join the Green Dragon Society?"
"You've certainly got a good plan."
Upon hearing this, Ximen Yu let out a soft laugh.
His gaze gradually deepened.
Although the other party did not say it directly.
However, he had already grasped the key to it.
The current global landscape.
All three dynasties recruited masters of divination and numerology.
Regardless of which side they choose to align with.
Neither of these is a good solution for a clay Bodhisattva.
The Azure Dragon Society—a force comparable to the three great dynasties but lacking a sorcerer—is the most suitable.
It can provide not only shelter.
Furthermore, it would prevent them from being pursued by all parties.
"The Great Dragon Head truly has discerning eyes."
"That is indeed my intention."
"For the Azure Dragon Society, the benefits of this matter far outweigh the drawbacks."
"This is a win-win situation."
"What does the Great Dragon Head think?"
His thoughts were easily seen through.
The clay bodhisattva was secretly surprised, but still explained with a smile.
His tone conveyed absolute confidence.
The other party will refuse to surrender to a master of divination!
Unless you've lost your mind!
"That being said, what makes you think I would agree?"
Ximen Yu remained noncommittal.
A faint smile flickered across her lips.
"I am certain that the Great Dragon Head will not refuse."
The clay bodhisattva answered calmly.
I hope you can always be this confident.
Ximen Yu stared intently.
............
Our gaze shifts to Dali.
Since appearing on the list twice.
Duan Zhengchun rose to fame.
The decree of Yihua Palace was issued.
The number of martial arts practitioners who were already flocking there surged.
After these days.
Martial artists from all over have gathered in Dali.
The inns and restaurants in the city were packed.
Swords flashed and shadows clashed on the streets.
............
Inside the Prince Zhennan's Mansion.
Listening to the solemn reports from the guards.
Duan Zhengchun's composed demeanor.
Duan Zhengchun's forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat.
He never expected things to escalate to this extent.
These江湖人士 (jianghu figures) are far too idle!
It was a mutually agreeable arrangement.
I have never forced anyone.
Duan Zhengchun cursed inwardly.
The more I think about it, the more frustrated I feel.
Just as they were devising a countermeasure.
Hurried footsteps could be heard outside the courtyard.
Duan Yu hurriedly entered, looking flustered.
"Your Imperial Uncle requests that you immediately seek refuge at Tianlong Temple."
Duan Zhengchun was taken aback at first.
Then my eyes lit up.
He slapped his forehead in regret and said:
"How foolish! I've completely forgotten about Tenryu-ji Temple!"
"There's no time to lose; let's set off immediately."
As a member of the Dali royal family.
He was well aware of the profound history of Tianlong Temple.
The top experts in Dali have all gathered here.
All you have to do is hide in the temple.
Why fear those roughnecks from the martial world?
Duan Zhengchun did not wait for a response from the others.
He turned and hurried toward the backyard.
He suddenly remembered.
When the mansion was built.
To prevent unforeseen circumstances, a secret passage was built.
It has been almost forgotten over the years.
I never expected to actually need it today.
Seeing his father leave in such a panic.
Duan Yu stood there, stunned.
I felt that the image of my kind father from the past was gradually becoming blurred.
"Young master, do not delay, please leave with us immediately."
The four retainers urged him hurriedly.
Duan Yu then came to his senses.
I hurriedly followed the crowd.
About half an hour later.
