Perhaps Jie Donglai would wander for the rest of his life.
Looking in the direction from which the voice came, Liu Lao Jiu was pinching his leg, having just retrieved a ring from a Spirit Beast Red Tiger. He sighed, lamenting how that guy could never settle down no matter where he went.
Liu Lao Jiu had already learned some details about the recent events from his junior disciple. Those Disciples of the Academy who had come with Gu Ping had all received warnings from him and did not head towards the Azure Dragon Seven Stars. Although he was unclear about what exactly had happened, Liu Lao Jiu knew that the loud noise made by Yan Dong was definitely related to Gu Ping.
However, how to convey this message left Liu Lao Jiu puzzled. When he first arrived, he had tried to send a message to the Disciples of the Academy, but no matter what he did, he couldn't get the message through. Techniques like sound transmission and Thousand Miles in a Single Line spells were all ineffective. Yet how had Gu Ping managed it? As fellow Gold Cultivators, Liu Lao Jiu could not believe there was such a vast difference between them.
I don't deny that there might be something I haven't noticed. While searching for Spirit Runes, Liu Lao Jiu pondered over Gu Ping's little secret.
In fact, Liu Lao Jiu was unaware that Gu Ping had a fox by his side, with Yoyo holding a piece of cloth and writing on it. Yoyo would then seek out those Disciples of the Academy, and soon everyone would be informed. Since Liu Lao Jiu hadn't seen this, he naturally missed out on a certain secret technique.
As Yoyo approached from afar, Gu Ping changed his direction and began searching for the remaining Spirit Runes. By this time, much of the time had already passed. Although there weren't many Eastern Persons left and there was no longer much competition, the starry sky above was vast. It was uncertain when he would find another high-level Spirit Rune like Azure Dragon Seven Stars; time was running short.
Can I sense powerful Spirit Runes?
Just after taking a few steps, Gu Ping suddenly heard Yoyo's voice. Although it sounded distant, the mental connection wouldn't be mistaken; their souls were completely in sync.
Yoyo nodded and jumped from Gu Ping's arms, stepping onto auspicious clouds as she ran off into the distance.
Soaring through the clouds, watching Yoyo's graceful movements left Gu Ping momentarily stunned before he quickly followed her. He had just realized how powerful that Pure Fox beside him had become.
Only the Demon King could unleash the spell while riding the clouds. At this moment, Yoyo effortlessly walked through the air, showcasing its strength with each step on the auspicious clouds. Gu Ping had no doubt that Yoyo possessed a power far greater than his own, especially given Yoyo's innate talent.
Yoyo had already leaped into the air and, noticing that Gu Ping was not following, turned to look for him.
"Come on."
Upon hearing Yoyo's voice, Gu Ping hurried to catch up, moving towards the powerful Spirit Runes ahead.
What Gu Ping did not know was that outside the Starlit Mist, a heated discussion was taking place.
Gao Brother, with his unyielding spirit, insisted on sticking to his initial stance while Lei willingly bowed to the prevailing winds.
Lei Dongyue had been waiting outside for everyone to return. He understood that those within the Formation had already lost their qualifications alongside Gu Ping. Thus, he had exited the Starlit Mist early, seizing the opportunity to unite with others and plan to extort a hefty sum from a certain academy during the upcoming auction.
The auction was imminent, and naturally, they would need to hand over all collected items before it began. At this moment, securing priority purchasing rights from Bu Luo was crucial. This privilege should not be underestimated; it could save a Sect hundreds of thousands of spirit stones—enough to cover the living expenses of several small sects for an entire year.
Hmph.
Gao Hong was accustomed to calculating against those from Pingyue and held no fondness for them. After all, Dao Sect prided itself on being the Daoist Orthodoxy and claimed to be disciples of the Primordial Dao. They looked down upon those who engaged in such calculations as beneath them.
Bu Luo and Gao Hong were clearly at a disadvantage after their previous encounter; thus, he refrained from countering Lei Dongyue further and instead observed what Lei Dongyue intended to do next.
It seemed that Gao Brother and the others were quite unwilling to accept their fate. Lei Dongyue surveyed everyone around before speaking: "According to external news, this time the Azure Dragon Seven Stars is missing one complete set of spiritual artifacts; without all pieces, it cannot unleash its full potential. Coincidentally, I have one piece here. Now that I have gathered five items, can anyone guess which one is missing? What do you all think?"
"Does he mean it or not? Otherwise, will he take everything?" Xu Jia glanced at Lei Dongyue and found the disciple from the Treasure Pavilion increasingly detestable.
No, does he mean it? He wanted those seven spirit artifacts, no matter the cost. "I don't deny it." Do they really have the final say?
Watching Lei Dongyue smirk, everyone quietly scrutinized them. After a brief silence, Xu Jia nodded first to indicate his agreement, and the others followed suit. Ying Wuyi stood aside with his legs crossed, not forgetting who had plotted against him first.
As for the location of Heart Residence Azure Dragon, did Lei Dongyue leak it to him? If he were to collude with Lei Dongyue now, would that mean Ying Wuyi was truly foolish?
Moreover, Ying Wuyi didn't believe that Yan Dong and his group could inflict serious harm on that little guy from the academy. He decided to stand by and watch, observing their expressions of disappointment and despair. That would make him feel a bit more at ease.
