...

Under the azure sky, the East Sea Old Dragon King, Ao Guang, swiftly moved towards the direction given by Li Qingming. Since his last visit to Penglai Island, he had long envied it. He once thought of making up a random excuse to visit Penglai Island again.

Ironically, he wandered over the East Sea for over a century but never found the trace of Penglai Immortal Island. This made him lose face in front of his brothers from the Four Seas. This time, being summoned by Li Qingming, he felt both surprised and anticipatory.

Continuing forward for about the duration of half an incense stick, Ao Guang stopped in front of a seemingly empty stretch of water. He took out a Jade Talisman from his storage space and casually threw it into the void.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, the empty water surface shone brightly, and an incredibly beautiful gigantic island appeared out of nowhere in front of Ao Guang. Even though he had already witnessed the incomparable beauty of Penglai, he was still momentarily immersed in it, unable to extricate himself.

"Swish!" A Golden Bridge suddenly appeared, a straight golden bridge shot out from the center of Penglai Island right to the feet of Ao Guang.

A child in a bright red Daoist robe stepped onto the Golden Bridge and approached. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Chi Hong.

"Ao Guang, your majesty, respects to you! The master has been waiting for a long time, please follow me," Chi Hong bowed to the Dragon King Ao Guang and said.

As the saying goes, "Under a sage’s seat, there are no lowly people," not to mention a child attendant of Li Qingming. Ao Guang, of course, did not dare to neglect and hurriedly returned the bow, saying, "Thank you, Immortal Child!"

With an expression of neither sadness nor joy, Chi Hong slightly bowed and turned his head, then headed straight for the center of Penglai Island towards the Vitality Hall.

Ao Guang followed behind Chi Hong, nodding inwardly: "Truly a disciple of a Saint! Just this demeanor of neither servility nor arrogance is incomparable to ordinary people!"

After walking the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the majestic and ancient Vitality Hall suddenly appeared before Ao Guang’s eyes.

Chi Hong asked Ao Guang to wait outside the hall momentarily while he himself entered the hall.

After a while, Chi Hong came out and said to Ao Guang, "Your Majesty Ao Guang, please come in. The master invites you!"

Ao Guang nodded slightly, stepped into the great hall, and immediately knelt down, shouting aloud: "Current Clan Leader of the Dragon Clan, East Sea Dragon King Ao Guang greets Emperor of the North! May Your Majesty live forever!"

Although Li Qingming was now Emperor Gouchen of the Heavenly Court, Ao Guang and other old ministers from the Demon Court still habitually called him Emperor of the North.

In the center of the great hall, Li Qingming sat casually on a soft couch, squinting at Ao Guang below him, and said, "Fellow Daoist, please rise, why bother with such formalities to me?"

Upon finishing speaking, he waved his sleeve lightly, sending out a gentle force that forcibly lifted Ao Guang.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ao Guang took the opportunity to rise and said respectfully.

"Fellow Daoist Ao Guang, don’t you want to ask me why I had your third son provoke the disciple of Fuxi, and why I called you to Penglai Island?" Li Qingming asked intriguingly, looking at Ao Guang’s respectful yet dignified face.

Ao Guang kept his head down and replied to Li Qingming, "Your Majesty’s requests must have their reasons; why should a small king like me worry?"

Li Qingming was stunned for a moment, then burst into a hearty laughter, "Hahaha! Well done, Ao Guang, trying to pry words out of me, but I will not indulge you."

At this, Li Qingming took out two items from his bosom, a Jade Bottle, and a shimmering blood-colored long knife.

He handed the Jade Bottle to Ao Guang and said, "This Jade Bottle contains a Nine Revolutions Golden Pill. This pill is quite potent, dissolve it in Jade Liquid and feed it to your treasured son in three parts. After three times, not only will his cultivation be fully restored, but he will also break through to the realm of a Da Luo Immortal! He’s indeed fortunate!"

Ao Guang, hearing this, was overjoyed, took the small Jade Bottle, and said, "Thank you for your gift, Your Majesty, thank you for your gift!"

Li Qingming waved his hand and threw the long knife to Ao Guang, saying, "This knife is called the Blood Transformation Divine Saber, an object of Extreme Yin. Take this knife, Hurry to the southwest side of the East Sea. There, there is an extraordinary sea area that has both Black Water and Qingshui. In the middle of these two is a towering tree named Innate Jianmu. Use this knife to cut the Innate Jianmu at the root and then bring it to Emperor Fuxi. He himself will know what to do!"

Though puzzled, Ao Guang respectfully took the Blood Transformation Divine Saber and set off for the southwestern waters, searching for the items between the Black Water and Qingshui.

Near the West Sea Coast in the Big Black Mountain, Li Qianqiu, dressed in a black Daoist robe, woke up from his cultivation. Touching his chest with a puzzled expression, he muttered to himself, "Strange, what is this? Where does this throbbing in my heart come from?"

Frowning, Li Qianqiu shouted outside the hall: "Xiao Tian, Xiao Di!"

Two young men walked into the hall, one in a black robe, the other in a white robe, looking exactly alike.

"Xiao Tian, Xiao Di, pay respects to the master!" The two bowed respectfully to Li Qianqiu, their eyes filled with fanaticism towards him.

They were originally two local farm dogs, guarding a rural household. Just because the farmer had lost two pigs, they were about to be beaten to death. It just so happened that Li Qianqiu passed by, and with his deeply cynical nature, naturally could not bear it, and thus he killed the farmer protecting the household. Unexpectedly, the two dogs clung to him, no matter how far he went, they followed closely, even through thorny grounds or stormy weather they stayed faithfully by his side.

This made Li Qianqiu, who was accustomed to the world’s disdain and mockery, feel a touch of warmth. Fortunately, he took in the two dogs, awakened their spiritual intelligence, and passed on to them his nameless skills.

Thus, only Xiao Tian and Xiao Di could truly understand the sorrow in Li Qianqiu’s heart, as well as that indescribable fury.

Li Qianqiu looked at the two young men before him, and silently nodded in his heart: "In just a few decades, to be able to cultivate to the Golden Immortal Realm, they are indeed extraordinary talents!"

"Do not know what matter Master has called us here for?" Xiao Tian, as the elder, respectfully asked.

Li Qianqiu waved his hand and said, "Recently, while cultivating, I’ve felt an inexplicable tremor in my heart, and I want to go out for a walk. I’ll leave Big Black Mountain and the Yin Yang Realm in your care; do not delay the matters I’ve instructed!"

Xiao Tian and Xiao Di looked at each other, and then kowtowed in unison, lightly declaring, "We will surely not fail the trust Master placed in us!"

Li Qianqiu nodded, and in a blink, he disappeared.

...

The current situation of Red Silk was very bad, extremely bad indeed.

Although the body of the Human Clan possessed an Innate Taoist Body, it was far from being as strong as that of the Dragon Clan. At this moment, various organs inside Red Silk’s body were damaged, utterly chaotic. She quietly drifted above the West Sea, drifting with the waves.

Suddenly, a black figure appeared before her; she tried hard to open her eyes to see the newcomer, but her consciousness was fading. Eventually, she completely passed out.

"I did not expect this tremor would actually relate to this girl, what exactly is going on?" Li Qianqiu frowned as he looked at the stunning face in his arms, and the palpitation in his heart suddenly ceased.

Li Qianqiu brought Red Silk to a temporary residence on the shore of the West Sea and sent his Divine Sense probing into her body.

"Hisss!" Seeing the chaotic state inside Red Silk’s body, even as resolute as he was, couldn’t help but inhale sharply, muttering to himself, "Just who did this girl fight with to receive such severe injuries!"

After speaking, a dazzling milky-white radiance emanated from his right hand, and the rich vitality power instantly penetrated into Red Silk’s body.

The vitality power entered her body, and Red Silk uttered a dreamy, light moan, a flush of red appearing on her pale pretty face.

"Where, where is this?" With a soft moan, Red Silk’s long eyelashes trembled slightly, slowly opening her eyes.

Li Qianqiu took a couple of steps back and said, "This is my residence!"

Red Silk’s enchanting, beautiful eyes glistened, sizing up Li Qianqiu for quite some time before asking, "And who are you?"

Li Qianqiu looked at Red Silk in silence for a while, then said, "Li Qianqiu."

"Oh!" Red Silk had not heard of Li Qianqiu from Luo He, so they were strangers yet miraculously came together.

Silently feeling the extremely bad condition inside her body, Red Silk struggled to stand up, and bowed deeply to Li Qianqiu, saying, "Red Silk thanks Fellow Daoist for the rescue!"

Yin Yang Realm Master Li Qianqiu, who dared to confront Emperor Fuxi, was now at a loss while staring at Red Silk, completely clueless about what to do next.

Indeed, from the moment Li Qianqiu was born until now, when had he ever received such a grand gesture of respect! Even with Xiao Tian and Xiao Di in the past, they only wagged their tails in salute.

"You, you first get up!" A moment of panic flashed across Li Qianqiu’s stern face, his right hand waved, and the remaining vitality power inadvertently emitted from his hand.

"Hmm!" Caught off guard, a surge of vitality power entered her body, causing Red Silk to let out a soft moan, her face flushing red. Her whole body softened, and she nearly fell to the ground.

"Fellow Daoist!" Li Qianqiu was startled and disregarded everything else. In a flash, he moved beside Red Silk, one arm around her waist, the other on her fragrant shoulder.

Feeling the heat from the warm hands around her waist, Red Silk’s entire body turned soft.

Li Qianqiu felt the same; he had never thought that the waist of a woman could be so delicate and smooth.

Both of them stared at each other in a daze for a while, until Li Qianqiu realized that his action was too bold and hastily lifted Red Silk by her waist and placed her onto a soft couch, saying, "Fellow Daoist, are you alright?"

Still immersed in the strong masculine scent of Li Qianqiu, Red Silk was startled by his words and replied, "There is nothing serious! Fellow Daoist, you have taken much trouble!"

Li Qianqiu unconsciously touched his chin and said, "Fellow Daoist, just rest assured and stay here. Your injuries are quite severe; although my vitality power helps restore your body functions, you must not casually use spiritual energy for three years!"

Red Silk knew her condition best; with her current capability, let alone channeling primordial energy, she might find it exhausting just to walk a few steps. She helplessly nodded and said, "In that case, I’m imposing on Fellow Daoist!" (To be continued.
