“Chilly!”
Two streaks of light, each over ten meters long, raced swiftly across the sky above the Spirit Mirage Sea, covering dozens of miles in an instant.
She Yuanjun's eyebrows twitched rapidly, and after a few erratic breaths, he finally communicated through Divine Sense, “It’s been so long already, and we’re about to reach the seventh. I wonder if our master has finished refining that kid’s marrow. This waiting is getting a bit dull, don’t you think?”
Gongyang Zhenjun sighed lightly and smiled helplessly. “Honestly, I find it boring too. After all, there are still too few creatures in the Spirit Mirage Sea, and most of the nearby waters are filled with Long Ao’s subordinates.”
“However, our master should have completed the refinement for that kid by now. After being around this master for so long, you should know his temperament by now!”
A flicker of unwillingness flashed in She Yuanjun’s eyes but quickly faded. He knew that he had lost all hope in this lifetime.
Thinking back to those carefree days made him feel a deep sense of regret.
Yet he dared not be too reckless or curse their ‘master’ in his heart; if his mental fluctuations were too great, it might trigger the Restrictions within his Primordial Spirit, and then he would be in trouble.
Every time he thought of this, he felt that the future was bleak.
“Gongyang, what exactly is our master’s cultivation level? Why can’t I ever see through him?”
She Yuanjun sensed a slight tremor from the Restrictions within his Primordial Spirit, causing his face to turn pale. He quickly changed the subject. “At first glance, it seems like he’s only at the Golden Core Stage, but the magical treasures he can wield are top-tier—more than just one or two! That’s just outrageous!”
Gongyang Zhenjun secretly chuckled. Seeing She Yuanjun’s pale face, he understood that this guy had once again disrespected their master behind his back, causing fluctuations in the Restrictions.
Still smiling lightly, he replied, “Our master’s cultivation should be below the Nascent Soul Stage. Of course, that’s just my guess; we really can’t know for sure unless our master reveals it.”
“But there’s no need to know anyway. Whether it was my past with the Great Wilderness Sword Sect or your carefree days filled with troublemaking—they’re all just memories now. We’ve already been marked by the Star God Sect and our master; there’s no escaping this life.”
"Rather than being unwilling and half-hearted, it's better to do the job well. You should know that our master never acts without purpose. Just think about the Falling Star Pill and the Life Pearl in your hands..."
Of course, some of these words were not so deeply felt; they were not children anymore, and some matters only needed a hint.
If this guy still didn't understand the situation, he would need to be careful in the future and keep his distance from him; otherwise, he would eventually be dragged down.
However, if he could truly let go of his rebellious heart and act honestly, everything would be different.
After all, they had both been taken in as Subordinates at the same time, and there was a mutual understanding between them.
One could predict that there would definitely be more Subordinates like them around this master in the future, and they could no longer leave. It would be better to find ways to elevate their status in the master's eyes.
At that moment, the two suddenly halted their escape light, staring seriously in the same direction in silence.
Half an hour later, a dozen escape lights flew in from afar. The two exchanged glances and quickly formed a few hand seals, then dove into the Sea Surface and disappeared.
"Hey, do you know why we're looking for that so-called Star God Sect leader this time?"
"What else could it be? I've heard from disciples of the already destroyed Zhao Family that this Star God Sect leader has connections with an Ancient Fierce Beast and possesses a great secret."
"Though the Great Wilderness Sword Sect and Supreme Void Palace, along with Two Realms Mountain, are all superpowers, there has been hidden conflict between them for quite some time. This time, however, all the news seems to relate to this guy named Ye Kai. We need to be cautious; we can't afford to make mistakes."
"Honestly, you all worry too much. We're just at the Nascent Soul Initial Stage; even if we reached Separation Stage, we shouldn't get involved in such matters. Otherwise, we wouldn't even know how we died."
"That's right, Brother Chu."
"At times like this, it's best to go with the flow. If someone like that senior expert comes looking for trouble, even if we encounter them, we should act as if we don't know them. Otherwise, who knows if we'll even make it out alive?"
"The medium-sized forces are naturally gravitating toward the Great Wilderness Sword Sect. If they were to hold some sort of formal alliance, it would actually be a disadvantage, appearing overbearing and rude. The way things are now may seem puzzling, but aren't they just running errands for them? In the end, when faced with a situation, will you take the initiative to approach or seek out the Great Wilderness Sword Sect, Two Realms Mountain, or the Supreme Void Palace?"
"Ah, that's true. It's not easy for us to come here; we should focus on searching for Material Treasures instead."
At that moment, Brother Chu suddenly sighed, "But it seems that the leader of the Star God Sect is no simple character!"
"So what you're saying is that we should just ignore it?"
Brother Chu nodded and fell silent.
...
The group of Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators had no idea that while they were discussing their topics, two figures beneath the sea surface were closely monitoring them with Divine Sense.
"Bang! Bang!"
As the group of Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators passed by, She Yuanjun and Gongyang Zhenjun immediately broke through the sea surface and revealed themselves.
"Gongyang, what do you think this is...?"
"This matter is likely related to Your Excellency intercepting Spirit Master Island. Sigh!"
"It's not your fault, Gongyang. You shouldn't have stopped me just now. Those mere ten or so cultivators are nothing; I could crush them with one hand."
Gongyang Zhenjun turned his head and rolled his eyes at She Yuanjun. "You might be capable, but if something goes wrong with this group, it won't be long before people find out. Even if it’s not a major issue, it will raise suspicions about our motives and loyalty in the eyes of Your Excellency."
"What if Your Excellency thinks we are no longer suitable to stay by his side? Or if others join in the future? What do you think will happen to our status then?"
She Yuanjun was taken aback; he had forgotten that he was no longer free and easy. To survive and thrive, he had to align himself with the will of the one above him.
If they acted recklessly this time and attracted a formidable enemy, even if Final could fend them off, it would likely displease the one above them. At that point...
Thinking of this, he immediately bowed to Gongyang Zhenjun and sighed, "I was reckless, old She. If it weren't for your reminder, I might have truly faced disaster this time."
The thought of that Illusory Magnetic Divine Light's Divine Ability sent shivers down his spine.
He never wanted to experience the terror of bone-melting and soul-devouring again.
"Brother She, I have a big favor to ask. Please heed my advice."
Gongyang Zhenjun also sighed lightly at this moment, speaking sincerely. "Don't think about anything else, and don't entertain other thoughts. In our situation, to put it bluntly, we are like servants. But who knows if this is misfortune or fortune?"
"Even if it's not fortune, at least we are still alive, and we need to keep living, right?"
She Yuanjun fell silent.
