626: Shuiyuexuan

"Dingze, you've come at just the right time."

"In over a month, it will be the inauguration ceremony for the Pavilion Master of Water Moon Pavilion within the Alliance. Water Moon Pavilion has already sent an invitation, hoping our Clan dispatches Cultivators to attend."

"You shall lead the Clan's Disciples there."

Seeing Zhou Dingze arrive in a flurry, his expression subtly shifted, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Why me?"

Zhou Dingze's expression fell.

Although Water Moon Pavilion did not have a Void Refining Great Power presiding over it, there were several Nascent Soul Venerables.

Furthermore, it had many female Cultivators, and the forces with marital ties to Water Moon Pavilion were countless.

Its influence was not weak.

And regarding the orders from the Zhou Family, it had never shown any outward compliance while secretly disobeying.

Having sent an invitation this time, the Zhou Family naturally needed to dispatch an Elder of sufficient importance.

Zhou Dingyang had been pondering this matter earlier.

"Hehe, because you are free..." Zhou Dingyang said with a slight smile.

"You are the Family Revered Master's younger brother, of noble status. Such an important task should naturally be entrusted to you."

Zhou Dingyang said earnestly.

Are you praising me or yourself...? Zhou Dingze's eyelid twitched.

"Sigh~"

"Alright then."

Zhou Dingze nodded reluctantly.

Although this task didn't require him to use his magical power, just dealing with the constant flattery would consume most of his energy. The thought of it gave him a headache.

Given the current status of the Zhou Family,

wherever he went,

various flatteries were countless.

If his will hadn't been firm, he would have probably become arrogant long ago.

At that time, if he made any mistakes, he might very well be righteously eliminated by Zhou Dingyang.

"Good."

"What did you come to see me for?"

Zhou Dingyang nodded, then continued to ask.

"I went to Heimu Peak."

Zhou Dingze said no more, then handed over the Jade Slip that recorded the Black Demon Dao Lord's answers to his questions.

"Thank you."

Zhou Dingyang took it, not being overly polite.

"I'm leaving."

Zhou Dingze turned around, not wanting to stay long. He had come with the ambition of taking his brother's seat, but before he could even speak, he was knocked back to his original form and assigned a task.

It was truly a great loss.

"Go, go."

A crimson stream of light flew out of the main hall and disappeared.

Zhou Dingyang shook his head, returned to the main seat at the head, and slowly immersed his Divine Sense into the Jade Slip in his hand... At the same time.

Xuanyun Realm, Xuan Dao Peak, Forbidden Ground at the peak.

Outside the stone wall.

"Revered Master, Disciple bids farewell."

'Qin Wuyou' stood up, bowed, and turned to leave.

Inside the stone wall.

"Hoo..."

"It's already at its limit..."

"A decision must be made..."

Dao Lord Xuan Tian, appearing as a middle-aged man with Dao essence accompanying his every move, frowned as he looked at the indestructible azure lamp fluctuating in the Void Realm.

Leveraging the Bloodline Power of the Ye Family, the extent to which he could control this indestructible azure lamp seemed to have reached its limit.

If he didn't find another path, he might not truly and completely control this qing deng for who knows how many years.

The reflection of the qing deng was mirrored in Dao Lord Xuan Tian's eyes.

The qing deng was naturally formed, filled with endless wonder and the Great Dao, attracting him at all times.

This was an existence that no Cultivator could resist.

"An alternative method of achieving the Dao..."

After a long while, Dao Lord Xuan Tian retracted his gaze.

A concise yet profoundly mysterious scripture appeared in his mind.

"After several years of study, there should be no errors or omissions, and I have already used the qing deng for deductions, so there should be no problems..."

Dao Lord Xuan Tian pondered in his heart.

Although he had personally reduced Yao Yubai's corpse to nothingness, and found this scripture from Yao Yubai's deepest memories,

he still maintained his vigilance and did not let his guard down.

Since obtaining this method, he had been in seclusion, studying it.

He cared nothing for external affairs.

Even major events like the alliance between the Qingyang Zhou Clan and the Xinlai Ancient Kingdom could not distract him.

For caution, he had also expended his mental energy to perform deductions with the indestructible azure lamp, and found nothing amiss within it.

"When to cut, cut..."

Dao Lord Xuan Tian's expression became firm; he was never an indecisive person.

To have reached this point today, he naturally lacked none of the necessary courage.

"From today onwards, no matter what happens, no one is to disturb me."

Dao Lord Xuan Tian's thoughts stirred, and his Divine Sense transmission reached the Palace Master of Xuandao Palace's ears.

"Yes, Dao Lord."

The Palace Master of Xuandao Palace's heart trembled, and he nodded in agreement.

Outside the Hall of the Dao Son.

'Qin Wuyou', who had just returned to this place, paused.

He then bowed towards the Void Realm.

"Xuantian, can you finally not wait any longer...?"

"The Great Dao will certainly be mine..."

'Qin Wuyou' entered the Hall of the Dao Son with a normal expression.

Buzz~

The Hall of the Dao Son's gates closed... Over a month later.

Southern Chaotic Sea.

In the vast sea, occasionally spirit boats, sword lights, and Magic Treasure lights streaked across the sea and sky.

Their direction was all towards a massive island shrouded in white and blue light.

At this moment, on Water Moon Island.

Countless Disciples of Water Moon Pavilion were busy greeting and receiving guests.

The sounds of announcements were constant.

Young Cultivators, accompanying their Clan or Sect Elders, were overwhelmed by the sights.

Perhaps Cultivators who met here and now would never cross paths again in the future.

But that did not detract from the scene at this moment.

"Zexi True Lord has arrived!"

Just then.

On the vast Water Moon Island, a shout of announcement echoed from outside the island, passing through one by one.

When it reached Water Moon Pavilion.

Figures trembled in their hearts, stopping their conversations.

They flew out, looking towards the direction outside the island.

Just then.

In Water Moon Pavilion, Water Moon Hall.

The current Pavilion Master of Water Moon Pavilion, Fairy Shuchen, had a stern expression and quickly spoke to a female Cultivator in her twenties or thirties, with a pure and beautiful appearance, standing before her.

"Tingyu, quickly follow me to greet him."

Hearing this, the pure and beautiful female Cultivator named Tingyu nodded obediently.

Two figures transformed into streaks of light and flew out of the hall.

Within the escaping light, Fairy Shuchen's heart stirred. Tingyu was her favorite Disciple, with exceptional talent and intelligence, and a gentle and obedient personality, beloved by all the Old Ancestors.

This time, with Tingyu's Breakthrough to Nascent Soul, she had the idea of passing down the position of Pavilion Master.

Firstly for herself, she needed to comprehend the Dao to seek Breakthrough to the Soul Transformation Dao.

Secondly, she also wanted to consider her most outstanding Disciple.

This time, with Zexi True Lord of the Zhou Family coming, if Tingyu gained Zexi True Lord's approval, her future path would certainly be smooth and unimpeded.

"Tingyu, in front of Zexi True Lord, do not be impolite."

Although she had confidence in Tingyu, she couldn't help but remind her.

"Revered Master, rest assured."

Tingyu smiled softly.

At this moment.

Fairy Shuchen's figure paused, and she looked at a man in a crimson robe, with an extraordinary demeanor, who was surrounded by the Elders of Water Moon Pavilion.

"Zexi True Lord, I apologize for not coming out to meet you sooner; I have been remiss. Please forgive me."

Fairy Shuchen went up to greet him with a beaming smile.

Behind her, Fairy Tingyu subtly glanced at him, silently following behind Fairy Shuchen.

"Pavilion Master, you are too kind."

Zhou Dingze smiled gently.

"Leave this to me."

Fairy Shuchen went up to him, and instructed the other Elders of Water Moon Pavilion.

"Yes, Pavilion Master."

The Elders retreated.

Fairy Shuchen stepped aside, falling slightly behind Zhou Dingze, and gestured forward.

"Pavilion Master is in the prime of her life, why would she think of stepping down from the position of Pavilion Master?"

Zhou Dingze asked. He was quite familiar with Fairy Shuchen, so he didn't need to be too cautious. Moreover, he had already seen the pure and beautiful figure following behind Fairy Shuchen, which prompted this question.
