Central Region of Boundless Heavens.
Luo Xian stood silently on the mountain peak, gazing at the palace enveloped by the Array, her expression filled with worry.
Luo Ying walked to her side, took her hand, and said, "Don't worry, Sister Xian. The Holy Lotus Great Formation has been activated. His Majesty will be safe inside."
"Hmm..." Luo Xian nodded lightly and smiled. "But that man never makes things easy for anyone."
Luo Ying smiled mischievously. "Then when you see him later, Sister Xian, you can give him a good scolding."
At that mont, Luo Ying could clearly feel Luo Xian's hand trembling and sweating. She suddenly asked, "Sister Xian, you're about to reunite with His Majesty. Are you nervous?"
"I... I'm not." Luo Xian turned her head away, looking a bit embarrassed.
The thought of finally eting the person she had longed for day and night was indeed making her incredibly nervous.
Luo Ying chuckled. "Actually, besides his appearance, His Majesty's personality hasn't changed at all. Really, you'll know when you see him."
"Really?"
"But he doesn't have his previous mories."
"That's not important, as long as he's still him."
As the two won conversed, the sound of tearing air suddenly reached them. A young man descended from the sky, landing before them.
The young man had an elegant deanor with a hint of haughtiness in his eyes. After bowing slightly to Luo Xian, he got straight to the point. "Princess Luoxian, my master, Wuxing Chuan, has sent for you."
Upon hearing the na "Wuxing Chuan," Luo Xian's brows furrowed slightly, a hint of disgust in her eyes.
"Her Highness the Princess, please co with ."
"I'm a princess too!" Dou Dou strode over from the side, hands on her hips and a proud look on her face.
The young man glanced at Dou Dou with disdain. "Where did this little brat co from? This is none of your business. Get lost!"
BANG!
Lao Ba suddenly dropped from the sky, smashing his wing down on the young man's head. "Damn it! How dare you act tough in front of , Lao Ba! See if I don't ambush you!"
"Sisters, get him!" Zhang Yi imdiately rolled up her sleeves and charged forward. "I think you shouldn't be called Lao Ba. Lao Liu fits you better!"
Nearby, Lin Shanshan also rolled up her sleeves. "Nice one, Lao Ba! Let's kill him!"
But just as the won were about to attack, a tall figure appeared like a phantom. A powerful energy erupted, forcing them all to stagger backward.
The figure was dressed in white purer than snow, his face as handso as jade.
It was Wuxing Chuan.
The young man scrambled to his feet to pay his respects.
Wuxing Chuan shot him a glance. "Useless trash. Get out of my sight."
"Yes, Young Master!"
Wuxing Chuan then turned to Luo Xian, his gaze softening. "Xian'er, I heard from Luo Hao that you had also co to the Boundless Heavens. I was rely busy seeking opportunities and didn't co to find you. You aren't angry with , are you?"
Luo Xian's face was expressionless; she paid him no heed.
Wuxing Chuan reminisced, "I rember the last ti we t was over sixty years ago, when my Divine Sense traveled to the Heaven Azure Empire for our engagent banquet..."
Luo Xian suddenly cut him off, her voice cold. "What do you want?"
A smile touched Wuxing Chuan's lips. "I've co for my fiancée. What else would I be here for?" he asked. "However, there is sothing I need your help with. My brother-in-law is being rather disobedient. He needs you, his sister, to persuade him."
「In the Holy Lotus Hall.」
Luo Xiu had entered the cultivation chamber beneath the Lotus Pond. He was regulating his breath and healing, preparing to create his Second Dantian.
Following Master Ping's instructions from before he left, Hua Muyan was organizing the materials needed for the task. As for Wei Qingkuang and the three Great Saints, they were guarding the entrance to the Holy Lotus Hall.
"Xiao Qing, why did the Green Lotus Palace suddenly appear in the Boundless Heavens?" Luo Xiu was adjusting his state and, having a mont of leisure, voiced a question that had been lingering in his mind.
From the Void, the sweet voice of Array Spirit Xiaoqing sounded, "After Your Majesty severed the Starry Sky Ancient Path, you sealed its node. But after so long, the seal has begun to show signs of weakening."
"When I sensed it, I followed the connection with the seal through the Void to suppress the Ancient Path Node here."
Hearing this, Luo Xiu's face showed sudden understanding. "I see."
He then asked, "So what's being suppressed beneath this Green Lotus Palace is the Ancient Path Node?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Luo Xiu inquired further, "And that Void Creature from before, did it escape after the seal on the node loosened?"
Xiaoqing replied, "Yes, Your Majesty. But my abilities are limited, so I could only trap the Void Creature within the Green Lotus Palace. I never expected it would set its sights on the Companion Green Lotus. Fortunately, Your Majesty arrived just in ti. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
Just as Luo Xiu was speaking with Xiaoqing, a whooshing sound echoed through the chamber. Master Ping's corpulent body appeared out of thin air in front of him.
Seeing Master Ping's urgent expression, Luo Xiu felt a sudden sense of foreboding. "What happened?"
Master Ping swore. "I just went out to bring them in, only to find they'd all fallen into Wuxing Chuan's hands. Damn it, those bastards are right outside! Luo Xiu, what do we do now?"
Hearing this, Luo Xiu's gaze darkened, and a glint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes. He said, "Xiaoqing, take us there."
In the blink of an eye, Luo Xiu, Master Ping, and Hua Muyan—along with Wei Qingkuang and the three Great Saints outside—were instantly transported by the Holy Lotus Great Formation to the palace's main gate.
Luo Xiu imdiately saw Wuxing Chuan. He also saw Luo Ying, Lin Shanshan, and the others, all restrained by chains of glowing runes.
Wuxing Chuan looked at Luo Xiu with a mocking smile. "Azure Emperor, we et again."
Luo Xiu's face was full of disdain. "You're a White Emperor, at least. Is this all you've got?"
Wuxing Chuan smiled lightly. "I don't have ti to waste on you. If you want them to live, obediently disable the Array and let in."
Luo Xiu asked, "Even if I disable the Array, what can you do?"
Wuxing Chuan's lips curled up, and he was about to speak, but in the next mont, a figure shot out from behind Luo Xiu.
The figure vanished in a flash. Almost simultaneously, the captured won, Lao Ba, and Black Fatty all disappeared as if they had evaporated.
A gentle breeze stirred.
The Heaven-Supporting Venerable materialized within the wind, enigmatic and unpredictable, appearing at Luo Xiu's side.
Luo Xiu gave him a grateful look. "Thanks."
The Heaven-Supporting Venerable gave a cold huff without saying a word. Luo Xiu had, in fact, used Hua Muyan's Flower Demon Clone as a sacrifice to resurrect the Venerable earlier, keeping him as a hidden trump card.
Wuxing Chuan looked around at the now-empty space, his expression turning grim. "It seems I've underestimated you."
"Xian'er, it looks like this disobedient brother-in-law will still need your persuasion after all," he said.
As his words fell, the crowd behind him parted. Kui Bao walked forward slowly, leading Luo Xian, who was restrained by rune chains.
As Luo Xiu saw Luo Xian, his eyes narrowed slightly. This person... is this Luo Xian, my sister?
But when Luo Xian saw Luo Xiu, she suddenly froze in disbelief. She recognized him at once: the fellow Daoist she had t in the Divine Oracle Cave Heaven—the peerless genius, Ao Debiao!
