Chapter 690: 556 He looked up, staring at the Formation, while his Uncle invisibly fixed his gaze on him. At this moment, the Gui Tao’s people had already used the Planting Devil in Taoist Heart to take residence inside Xuan Sanren. Crane-haired yet with a youthful face, his eyebrows and eyes strikingly handsome, his expression cold and detached. Caught “stealing a lesson,” and now under his Uncle’s scrutinizing gaze, Mo Hua felt a bit guilty and said with an obedient smile: 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺 “Uncle, you’ve become even more handsome!” The Gui Tao’s people stretched out a slender finger, flicked it gently, and touched Mo Hua’s forehead. Mo Hua collapsed softly and fainted, lying on the ground. His little face was pale, lashes dark, breathing fine and evenly spaced. The Gui Tao’s people looked at Mo Hua, their eyes shifting in thought, emotions turbulent. Disciple… what exactly did you teach this little thing? How did you manage to teach such a… perplexing disciple? The Gui Tao’s people thought back to the gaze of Mo Hua just a moment ago. Clear, transparent, bright, and also faintly revealing a trace of enlightenment towards the Great Dao… What exactly did this little thing see in Gui Tao’s Heaven Sealing Formation? What did he come to understand? Could it be… The Gui Tao’s people furrowed their brows, their gaze indifferent, pondering for a moment before slowly shaking their heads. Impossible. I’ve seen before that although this little thing’s skill in Formations is passable, he has not learned the Immortal Sky Formation Flow. The Immortal Sky Formation Flow is the most orthodox inheritance of our sect. If my Disciple did not teach him, it shows that he is not the most orthodox core disciple. And since he hasn’t learned the Immortal Sky Formation Flow and lacks the Formation Method Origin Stream as a foundation, to understand one and know all, and to study the Formations extensively, it naturally becomes impossible for him to learn the Heavenly Secret Calculation. If he can’t perform the Calculation, what could he possibly understand? The Gui Tao’s people’s gaze flickered slightly. However, no matter what this little thing has understood. We can’t let him look any further. Who knows what this strange and unusual little thing could figure out… The Gui Tao’s people’s gaze became focused, they reached out to pick up Mo Hua, and slowly walked out of the Ten Thousand Demons Hall. Upon exiting the Ten Thousand Demons Hall, the Gui Tao’s people waved backhandedly. The Gui Tao’s Heaven Sealing Formation reversed, the Formation Patterns became deceptive, swallowing the entire Demon Palace, along with the demon cultivators buried within the hall, slowly fading into obscurity… Then, without a backward glance, the Gui Tao’s people stepped towards Li Mountain City, towards the Five Elements Mountain Guarding Formation, and also towards the Disciple who had been separated for hundreds of years within the Large Formation… “The grudges of hundreds of years… it’s time to end them…” … Outside Dali Mountain. A white-robed Cultivator in the Late Golden Core Stage, along with a dozen or so Deputy Court Leaders and Enforcement Leaders at the Golden Core Stage, was escorting Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi to the nearby Azure Mountain City. The white-robed Cultivator was the Court Leader from Liyuan City. He was also the highest-ranking, most powerful Court Leader across the Dali Mountain State boundary. Upon entering Azure Mountain City, Aunt Xue gave her thanks with a bow: “Thank you, Court Leader Shangguan, for guarding us along the way; otherwise, with demon cultivators running rampant, the journey would have been incredibly difficult.” “It’s nothing…” The white-robed Cultivator, surnamed Shangguan, with a kind-looking face, also gave a cupped fist salute: “It’s a relief that Young Master Bai and Miss Bai are safe…” Court Leader Shangguan let out a long sigh of relief inwardly. Thank goodness… Thank goodness these two VIPs are unharmed. Although their special Eternal Life Runes are shattered, they are unharmed, and the demon cultivators encountered along the way have all been dealt with. Now that they are safely escorted to Azure Mountain City, and with the Bai Family cultivators coming to receive them, there should be no further worries. “The Bai Family…” Court Leader Shangguan’s heart sank slightly, “To think that they are… children of the Bai Family…” The Bai Family is a colossal entity within the Cultivation World. While the Shangguan Family also holds a not-so-low status, they ultimately cannot be compared with the Bai Family. Court Leader Shangguan was somewhat apprehensive. “I hope the Bai Family doesn’t hold a grudge against me…” After all, those were two special Eternal Life Runes! Only ancestors of Noble Clans who have little life left, no hope in furthering their Cultivation, and who will have no more advancements in their lifetime, would spend their own Cultivation to refine such Runes. The ancestors of Noble Families capable of planting such Runes are few and far between. And the Noble Family Descendants privileged enough to receive such Runes are even rarer. Once a personal Eternal Life Rune is shattered, finding an elder to plant a new one is as difficult as scaling the heavens… And if left unseeded, these Proud Sons of Heaven will face great danger upon stepping into the Cultivation World. The trouble to come will be substantial… Court Leader Shangguan frowned, deep in thought for a long time before he realized he was not in a position to worry about these matters… He shook his head and settled Bai Zisheng, Bai Zixi, and Aunt Xue in the largest inn in Azure Mountain City. Only waiting for the Bai Family to come to safely take these two VIPs away, he would be at ease. As for himself… he may not have merit, but he has suffered hardship. Even forgetting about merit, as long as he is not to blame, it’s enough… But the incident happened suddenly; the Bai Family will likely not be unreasonable and overly blame him. After several days at the inn, people from the Bai Family arrived. A white-clothed, masked female Cultivator, accompanied by a group of Bai Family Cultivators, entered the inn. Their figures seemed both real and illusionary, both solid and ethereal. Although the people around clearly looked at them, it seemed as if they saw nothing at all… Court Leader Shangguan was originally puzzled as to who would come from the Bai Family, but when he lifted his head and saw the figure of the female Cultivator, his heart trembled, and he immediately bowed his head, respectfully saying: “I am Shangguan Jing, serving as the Court Leader of Li Mountain City, I greet the True Man!” This woman’s face was masked, so her features were unclear, but her demeanor was coldly aristocratic with a peerlessly graceful presence. More importantly, her breath was elusive and profound, unfathomable. Feather Transformation Realm! This woman was a True Man of the Feather Transformation Realm! Court Leader Shangguan bowed his head even lower, fearing the slightest offense might displease the True Man.
