Chapter 127: 95, 96. Catastrophe is imminent, maxing out favorability with Fox Immortal (Major Chapter - please subscribe)_3

The overlapping data remained, only Ling’s "1~1" data glowed slightly brighter, indicating its dominance. This meant that although the consciousness within this body had returned to Ling, the Fox Immortal still slept within her body and had not left.

Song Cheng showed a pensive expression, with no trace of the bitterness from when he had competed sorrowfully with the Fox Immortal.

He was quite puzzled: Why did the Fox Immortal not return to her own body, instead clinging to another’s body?

He glanced at Ling, untied the robe he was wearing, and draped it over the little tea girl’s shoulders.

This time, the little tea girl stepping forward was indeed not easy.

Song Cheng casually walked out of the elegant room, leaning over the railing to look down.

A well-dressed man hurriedly approached and respectfully said, "Second Master, was the taste to your satisfaction?"

He was the owner of the Top-Quality Delicacies Pavilion.

Song Cheng replied, "Not bad. After closing in the evening, keep some people here regularly, because I might often come around at midnight."

The owner nodded repeatedly in agreement.

At that moment, there was movement inside the house.

The owner took his leave.

Ling groggily walked out, glanced around, and then fixed her gaze on Song Cheng, calling out, "Young Master."

Song Cheng turned his head, smiled at her, and said, "Let’s go home."

Ling glanced around, noticing Song Cheng’s robe still draped over her shoulders, and smiled with pressed lips, then asked, "What happened to me last night?"

The Fox Immortal hadn’t mentioned wanting to keep it from Ling, so Song Cheng carefully picked some details to share with the little tea girl.

The carriage traveled through the bustling morning Prefectural City, only returning to the An Family in West City after quite some time.

Upon inquiring, it was revealed that Madam Tong had returned to the temple early, as many disciples of the Pearl Mountain Taoist Temple and various officials had come to wait since morning.

Madam Tong had left a letter for Song Cheng.

The letter roughly described her encounters the previous day, then mentioned that she would later have Chen Ji, the head of the Medicinal Human Hall of Pearl Mountain, secretly bring the "Pearl Mountain Visualization Technique."

Having experienced such a major event, she naturally wouldn’t keep the Visualization Method hidden any longer.

On the other hand, the Shanhe Martial Arts Hall had already heard about the matter. Although various Great Elders had already left, the Great Hall Master was still stationed there and had personally come to inquire about what had happened.

Ling was so sleepy that she couldn’t stay awake, nodding off repeatedly beside Song Cheng.

Song Cheng waved his hand for Ling to hurry back to her room and sleep.

In the parlor, the "Great Hall Master," Tie Zhenyi, seriously asked, "Junior Brother, what exactly happened?"

Song Cheng did not hide it and directly recounted what happened last night. As for the story of the Fox Immortal, he only briefly mentioned, "Claiming to come from another nation beyond the Ghost River, but it has not been verified," and so forth.

After speaking, he asked, "Senior Brother, what do you think?"

"Fox Immortal..." Tie Zhenyi’s expression grew solemn, muttering, "I long suspected Lady Zhushan’s Soul Cultivation Method was not simple, but I didn’t expect it to even involve immortals. To be honest, I’ve never heard of immortals before."

Song Cheng suddenly said, "Senior Brother, could the reason Divine Arms Hall and Star-Viewing Tower became part of the Imperial Family be because of immortals?"

Tie Zhenyi pondered for a long time, then shook his head, but immediately after, he delved into deep thought again and said, "If we are to speak of immortals, there have been some legends in this world."

"What kind of legends?"

Tie Zhenyi said, "I heard there’s a Martial Temple in the Imperial City and rumors about the Martial Temple becoming immortal."

Beyond the Imperial City, some shrines of influential forces have also been said to manifest mana.

But these..."

He fell silent, contemplating his family’s shrine.

A shrine traditionally revered the founder of the sect. The tablets enshrined on the shrine were spirit tablets, and beneath the shrine, orderly placed were the urns in small mounds.

The Shanhe Martial Arts Hall’s shrine was simply a place of respect for teachers and teaching, never having manifested mana.

The Great Hall Master thought of these things, and Song Cheng naturally thought of them too.

On the day Song Cheng reached Entry Level, he had also worshipped at the Shanhe Martial Arts Hall’s shrine.

But there had been no unusual occurrences.

Both were intelligent and subscribed to the principle of "boldly hypothesize, carefully verify."

At this moment, Song Cheng suddenly said, "Could other family shrines have abnormalities? In this long history, someone must have broken through beyond the Qi Realm."

Tie Zhenyi deliberated for a moment and said, "When the weather warms a bit, and if the Ghost Tide hasn’t come, I’ll send someone to investigate this matter."

After speaking, he murmured, "The Martial Temple, shrines, if there really are some old monsters who haven’t died, then to call them immortal isn’t an exaggeration. Moreover, throughout history, apart from the existing Martial Temple shrines, many forces submerged by history also had shrines. Their shrines, naturally, were submerged along with them."

The air fell silent.

Obviously, the two fellow brothers had thought of a few things.

Tie Zhenyi suddenly changed the topic, laughing, "By the way, didn’t Junior Brother agree to pledge brotherhood with the Old Venom today? After staying up all night, can you still go?"

Clearly, his information network was extremely well-developed.

Song Cheng yawned, smiling, "Does Senior Brother blame me?"

Tie Zhenyi earnestly said, "Belonging to Hanping Prefecture, we progress and retreat together sooner or later. Junior Brother pledging brotherhood with him is just what I want. If the Fox Immortal’s words are accurate, then a great calamity is imminent, and the Shanhe Martial Arts Hall needs stronger people in charge. This future will eventually be entrusted to Junior Brother."

His goodwill didn’t change.

Song Cheng straightforwardly said, "Let the Martial Arts Hall be in Senior Brother’s hands. Others might envy Senior Brother’s position, but I certainly won’t."

Tie Zhenyi curiously asked, "Why?"

Song Cheng replied, "It’s tiring. Just look at how busy my wife is every day... I just don’t want to do it."

Tie Zhenyi laughed heartily, "A genius like Junior Brother, afraid of hard work and weariness?"

Song Cheng countered, "Has Senior Brother ever slept in?"

Tie Zhenyi was taken aback.

Sleeping in?
