Chapter 387: Meeting Tong Tian at Biyou Palace, mission successfully completed

Elsewhere.

Three Immortals Island.

Bidding farewell to Yun Xiao.

Gu Xiu flew away from Three Immortals Island, heading toward Golden Turtle Island, intending to visit Biyou Palace to pay respects to Tong Tian.

On the way, hearing someone calling out, Gu Xiu stopped.

Two graceful, slender figures flew over lightly; they were none other than Han Zhi Xian and Fairy Cai Yun.

As soon as the two reached him, their faces were filled with warm smiles.

"Junior Nephew, it really is you," said Han Zhi Xian.

Fairy Cai Yun asked, "We just returned from Nine Dragons Island and are on our way back to Golden Turtle Island. Is Junior Nephew also heading to Golden Turtle Island?"

Gu Xiu smiled and nodded, "Two Junior Aunts, I am indeed heading to Golden Turtle Island."

"In that case, let us return together," Han Zhi Xian said warmly.

Gu Xiu did not refuse, and the three of them headed to Golden Turtle Island together.

On the way, Han Zhi Xian asked, "Junior Nephew, I heard that some time ago you sent Perfected Puxian to the list?"

Fairy Cai Yun chimed in from the side, "This matter is currently the talk of Golden Turtle Island. Ever since you joined the Jie Sect, you have repeatedly dealt heavy blows to the Chan Sect. Even the Seven Attendant Immortals, who are always arrogant, have been won over by you."

"Is that so? I was unaware of this. Thank you for informing me, Junior Aunt," Gu Xiu said modestly.

He thought for a moment; his prestige within the Jie Sect was currently very high. If he could win the Investiture of the Gods, his status among the Jie Sect disciples would be unparalleled in the future.

"By the way, Junior Nephew, do you have any business heading to Golden Turtle Island this time?" Han Zhi Xian had been looking for topics to chat with Gu Xiu.

There was nothing to hide about going to Biyou Palace to find Tong Tian, so Gu Xiu spoke truthfully.

"This disciple wishes to go to Biyou Palace to speak with the Sect Leader about some matters."

"If it is important enough for Junior Nephew to go to Biyou Palace to find the Sect Leader, then it must not be delayed. Let us increase our speed." Han Zhi Xian and Fairy Cai Yun stopped pestering Gu Xiu, and the group increased their flight speed toward Golden Turtle Island.

Upon reaching Golden Turtle Island, Han Zhi Xian said, "Junior Nephew, since you are going to Biyou Palace to see the Sect Leader, we will not disturb you."

Gu Xiu bowed, "Thank you both for the company. We shall talk again when there is time."

Having said that, Gu Xiu headed toward Biyou Palace.

As soon as he arrived outside Biyou Palace, the boy Shui Huo stepped forward and bowed.

"Senior Brother, have you come here to see the Sect Leader?"

Gu Xiu nodded in response, "There are some matters I wish to report to the Sect Leader."

"Senior Brother, please wait a moment. I will go and report this."

The boy Huo Shui turned and entered Biyou Palace. After a while, he walked out, "Senior Brother, the Saint Master allows you to enter."

Gu Xiu bowed, "Thank you for your trouble, Junior Brother."

Then, he arrived before the main gate of Biyou Palace and walked inside.

Inside Biyou Palace.

Incense smoke curled, immortal Qi was dense, and the rich, majestic spiritual energy seemed to have materialized.

Tong Tian was meditating on a prayer mat, Dao laws flowing around his body, and various terrifying visions evolving behind him.

Gu Xiu walked forward and bowed, "Disciple pays respects to Grandmaster."

Tong Tian nodded slightly, his gaze falling on Gu Xiu, "Gu Xiu, why have you come? Could it be that you have more good news to tell me?"

Some time ago, Gu Xiu had sent Perfected Puxian to the list, and four of the Twelve Golden Immortals had already been lost. Upon hearing this news, Tong Tian was very pleased.

He did not expect Gu Xiu to come to Golden Turtle Island to find him again so soon, thinking there was more good news.

A faint smile appeared on Gu Xiu's face, "Grandmaster, there is no good news this time. It is that this disciple has a matter to report."

Usually, when Gu Xiu had an idea, he would just go and do it; he would never come to ask for Tong Tian's opinion.

This rare visit made Tong Tian curious.

"Speak and let me hear it."

Gu Xiu spoke slowly, "Grandmaster, this disciple has received news that because four of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect have been listed, the foundation of the Chan Sect has been affected. Yuanshi Tianzun is embarrassed and angry, and intends to personally enter the fray to kill the disciples of my Jie Sect."

"Currently, the remaining Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect are acting high-profile in the Primordial, exposing themselves, wanting to lure us into taking action so that Yuanshi Tianzun can step in and suppress us."

Hearing this, Tong Tian frowned slightly and thought for a moment, "With Yuanshi's temperament, it is truly possible for him to do such a shameless thing. However, how did you find out about this?"

Gu Xiu scratched his head and smiled awkwardly, "Grandmaster, this disciple has his own sources of information. It is not convenient to speak of this matter."

Tong Tian raised an eyebrow slightly, "Are you even hiding things from me?"

Gu Xiu bowed and explained, "Grandmaster, it is not that this disciple intends to hide it, but speaking of it would involve this disciple's personal karma, which might cause many complications. I hope Grandmaster will understand, but the information this disciple has provided is not false."

Tong Tian stared at Gu Xiu, as if wanting to see through him.

After a moment of silence, Tong Tian slowly withdrew his gaze, his expression softening slightly, "Forget it. Since you insist, you must have your difficulties, so I will not ask. If, as you say, Yuanshi Tianzun is going to take action, then I will keep an eye on Yuanshi Tianzun's movements from now on. But what do you think my Jie Sect should do next?"

Gu Xiu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Hearing the question, he said seriously, "Grandmaster, my Jie Sect disciples should not go out for the time being. When the Chan Sect Golden Immortals who are causing trouble outside reveal a flaw, we will then strike to kill them. Once we succeed, we should immediately run away. When Yuanshi Tianzun enters the fray, Grandmaster, you can then take action."

After listening, Tong Tian began to ponder seriously.

Currently, with the enhanced version of the Immortal Execution Sword Formation map, he was not afraid of Yuanshi Tianzun and Taishang Laojun. Even if the two Saints from the West came, it was not as if they would be without the strength to fight.

He nodded.

"You may act boldly. I will keep a close watch on Yuanshi Tianzun and Taishang Laojun. If there are any complications, I will naturally step in."

"Thank you for your trust, Grandmaster. With your word, this disciple is relieved."

Having reported this matter to Tong Tian.

Having obtained Tong Tian's guarantee, Gu Xiu left Biyou Palace.

Soon, the system's voice sounded.

"Ding!"

"Successfully informed Tong Tian about Yuanshi's embarrassment and anger, and his plan to personally enter the fray. Mission completed, reward: Hunyuan Golden Immortal Dao Fruit!"

Receiving the reward, Gu Xiu was full of joy. He only needed to consume it directly to advance to Hunyuan Golden Immortal.

But currently, consuming it directly on Golden Turtle Island would be too eye-catching, so he planned to return to Three Immortals Island before consuming it.

As Gu Xiu left Golden Turtle Island and returned to Three Immortals Island.

Tong Tian summoned the four personal disciples and the Seven Attendant Immortals to Biyou Palace.

"Master, you suddenly called us here, is there something you wish to instruct?" Duobao Daoist was the first to ask.

Tong Tian's expression was calm as he spoke slowly, "Just now, Gu Xiu came to Biyou Palace and told me something. It is necessary to tell you all about it."

These words made everyone present curious.

Our Lady of Golden Spirit could not help but ask, "I wonder what matter Junior Nephew Gu Xiu told Master?"

Tong Tian glanced at everyone and pondered, "Currently, in the Battle of the Investiture of the Gods, our sect has the upper hand, having sent four Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect to the list. But according to Gu Xiu, Yuanshi Tianzun is currently embarrassed and angry, and intends to personally enter the fray to kill the disciples of our sect."

"What!" Hearing this, everyone could not help but be shocked.

"Master, when the Investiture of the Gods was signed, did the Saints not agree that the disciples of the three sects would enter the calamity, and their life and death would be determined by fate? It is one thing that our Jie Sect was implicated by the Chan Sect to participate in the Investiture of the Gods, but the Sect Leader of the Chan Sect is a dignified Saint. Does he intend to break the rules and personally enter the fray to bully the small?" Duobao said.

Everyone present also looked at Tong Tian, waiting for an answer.

Tong Tian frowned, his face showing a thoughtful expression.

"I also feel that, given Yuanshi Tianzun's status, he should at least want some face and not go so far as to enter the fray to bully the juniors. But Gu Xiu's words have never been wrong so far. Being cautious is never wrong."

Hearing this, Duobao Daoist, Our Lady of Golden Spirit, and others began to ponder.

"Master is right. We should indeed be careful and cautious," said Our Lady of Golden Spirit.

Tong Tian nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over everyone.

"During this period, I will keep an eye on the movements of Yuanshi Tianzun and Taishang Laojun. The Twelve Golden Immortals of the Chan Sect are currently acting high-profile in the Primordial, wanting to lure our Jie Sect out. You should not go out for the time being. When they reveal a flaw, then go and send them to the list."

Duobao Daoist and the others heard this, bowed and accepted the order, saying in unison, "We will obey everything Master instructs!"

The sound was firm and powerful, echoing in Biyou Palace for a long time. ===== CHAPTER 388 =====
