Chapter 2446: Show Your Hand!

"Good!"

"Perfect!"

He could of course stay silent, but Daoist Randeng did not believe they could not find a single person on Gai Jiuyou Mountain to ask for directions.

Zhao Gongming followed Daoist Randeng inside.

Yunxiao had already learned of Zhao Gongming's entry, under the guidance of Taiyi Jiu Ku Zhenjun.

But she held back!

Yunxiao could not go to Zhao Gongming; if he sought out his elder brother, he would bring him untimely disaster, so he could only wait beside Taiyi Jiu Ku Zhenjun.

Taiyi Jiu Ku Zhenjun sighed and said, "Why must you suffer like this? If you wish to save Zhao Gongming, go ahead—everything else is trivial."

"No!" Yunxiao said firmly. "I will make them retreat in the face of difficulty."

Retreat in the face of difficulty—what a simple phrase, yet how terribly hard to do, for everyone carries their own obsession.

Once an obsession takes root, they will not turn back until they hit the southern wall, and even if they die against it, they will not turn back.

Taiyi Jiu Ku Zhenjun sighed at this thought and departed.

He let Yunxiao act as she wished, but Yunxiao must not come to harm now, for too much was tied to him, and too much needed to be done.

The aura of the Chaos Gourd was right here on Gai Jiuyou Mountain!

And the aura of the Seven Treasures Marvelous Tree was at the place where Changsheng Dadi had secluded himself to cultivate.

Both were distinct, yet in truth deeply connected, for Luo Fu was watching both places closely—they would know of any disturbance.

"These two are indeed connected, aren't they? They're all stirring now, alerted by the wind."

"That's right."

"Then even so, there should have been other arrangements earlier—you truly had the opportunity."

Recalling what Ancestor Minghe had said, Daoist Randeng regained his confidence: they must develop their own strength, and must establish their own school—never fall behind others.

Daoist Randeng knew what they were using, but now they had not directly exposed it.

Few can think this far ahead.
