Chapter 2524
2524 Scheme
When Heaven Immortal Luo Yang saw Zither Immortal Meng Yao’s reminiscent expression, he knew that he had hit the nail on the head.
He perked up and continued, “At that time, the Pure Yang Spirit Treasure, the Godfiend Soul Summoning Banner, disappeared suddenly. Furthermore, strangely, Sword Immortal Yue Hua was the first to appear and interrogated who hid the Godfiend Soul Summoning Banner.”
“Later on, an Earth Immortal stood out and accused a Black Immortal of hiding the Godfiend Soul Summoning Banner.”
“However, Sword Immortal Yue Hua could not find any traces of the Godfiend Soul Summoning Banner in the storage bag and consciousness of this Black Immortal. Therefore, he threw the latter at the foot of the mountain casually.”
Pausing for a moment, Heaven Immortal Luo Yang took a deep breath and said, “That Black Immortal was none other than Su Zimo of Heaven and Earth Academy!”
“Oh?”
Meng Yao’s expression changed as she murmured, “A Black Immortal managed to cultivate to this realm in just a few thousand years?”
Wasn’t that cultivation speed way too terrifying?!
Not many geniuses of the upper world could reach this level, let alone cultivators who ascended from the lower worlds.
All these years, even in the entire Heavenly World, there was only a single Yun Ting.
Meng Yao said slowly, “If not for a huge opportunity, he would definitely not have reached this stage!”
“That’s right!”
Heaven Immortal Luo Yang said in a deep voice, “Therefore, I suspect that the Godfiend Soul Summoning Banner fell into Su Zimo’s hands back then. However, he managed to deceive and hide from Sword Immortal Yue Hua.”
“What’s even stranger is that although Sword Immortal Yue Hua did not find the Godfiend Soul Summoning Banner in his body back then, he threw the latter casually at the foot of the mountain, smashed against the stone wall. That power was enough to kill any Black Immortal! However, that person survived!”
Meng Yao shook her head gently. “Even so, it doesn’t mean anything.”
“There’s something else I suspect!”
Heaven Immortal Luo Yang said hurriedly, “Back when the Godfiend Soul Summoning Banner disappeared, the soul of a divine dragon appeared and fought against it.”
“Thereafter, a true divine dragon appeared and fought against you three Perfected Immortal experts.”
“Among the cultivation techniques that Su Zimo specializes in, there’s a secret skill that’s similar to a dragon roar. Furthermore, from what I know, he even released an Essence Spirit secret skill of the Dragon race in the battle for the seal!”
“Mmm?”
Meng Yao’s eyes flashed coldly in deep thought.
Logically speaking, Essence Spirit secret skills of the Dragon race could not be released without the Essence Spirit of the Dragon race!
Heaven Immortal Luo Yang said, “I’m guessing that there’s a high chance that the soul of the divine dragon back then and the divine dragon that appeared later on came because of this lad.”
“There must be a relationship between this lad and the Dragon race!”
A playful look gradually appeared on Meng Yao’s face. “He’s not from the same race as us? Interesting…”
After pondering for a moment, she took out two messenger talismans and left a few words on them with her spirit consciousness, sending them to Imperial Wind Temple and Heaven and Earth Academy.
“Wait here.”
Meng Yao said to Heaven Immortal Luo Yang, “Repeat what you just said to them after they arrive.”
Heaven Immortal Luo Yang nodded in agreement.
Before long, a figure descended.
Riding on a gigantic golden ant, the person sped over with a ferocious aura. Before he arrived, he shouted, “What happened? Why are you in such a hurry to see me, Fairy Meng Yao? Could it be that you miss me too much? Hahahaha!”
Meng Yao did not reply and moved her finger, causing the sound of a zither to echo.
Before the sound of the zither was finished, another sword beam sped over from the other side. It was sharp and extremely fast, surpassing the former in the blink of an eye!
“Oh?”
The Perfected Immortal on the golden ant raised his brow slightly. “Fellow Daoist Yue Hua is here too?”
“Wu Feng, how have you been?”
Sword Immortal Yue Hua paused and looked at the man not far away, replying indifferently.
Perfected Immortal Wu Feng patted the golden ant beneath him and asked it to stop by the lake. It descended into the pavilion in the middle of the lake with Sword Immortal Yue Hua.
“What’s the meaning of this?”
Perfected Immortal Wu Feng smiled and asked, “It’s only been a few thousand years and the three of us have gathered again. Fairy Meng Yao, you truly couldn’t bear to see us leave back then, huh?”
“I called the two of you here for an important matter.”
Meng Yao did not reply to Perfected Immortal Wu Feng. She glanced at Heaven Immortal Luo Yang at the side and gestured for him to repeat what happened.
Sword Immortal Yue Hua and Perfected Immortal Wu Feng had different expressions after hearing that.
A look of realization flashed through Sword Immortal Yue Hua’s eyes. “That explains everything. I’ve always felt that this lad looked familiar, as though I had seen him somewhere before. So, he’s that ant from back then!”
“He didn’t die after I threw him at the foot of the mountain back then?”
In his impression, the Black Immortal back then was like an ant that he stepped on to death—how could he remember?
“What do the two of you think?”
Meng Yao said, “If the dragon that injured us truly came because of this lad, we can’t just let that go, right?”
“There’s no evidence for something like this.”
Perfected Immortal Wu Feng looked at Sword Immortal Yue Hua who was not far away. “Furthermore, Su Zimo is a disciple of Heaven and Earth Academy and Fellow Daoist Yue Hua’s junior brother. Right now, his reputation is like the sun in the midday skies. We can’t bully the weak and attack him, right?”
“You don’t have to worry about me for this matter.”
Sword Immortal Yue Hua said in a deep voice, “If that lad is truly related to the Dragon race or is someone from the Dragon race, as the leader of the legacy disciples of the academy, I can’t be biased!”
Because of Mo Qing, Sword Immortal Yue Hua had long hated Su Zimo to the core and was afraid that he would not be able to find a chance to attack him.
Right now, this was a rare opportunity!
If Su Zimo were to advance to the Perfected One realm and be accepted as an official legacy disciple by the Sect Master, it would be almost impossible for him to attack Su Zimo again.
“I’m quite alright with letting this matter go.”
Perfected Immortal Wu Feng shrugged his shoulders and suddenly said.
He could tell that Sword Immortal Yue Hua was clearly hostile towards Su Zimo.
The feud between Zither Immortal Meng Yao and Su Zimo had long spread through the entire Divine Firmament Immortal Domain.
In reality, there was no deep feud between him and Su Zimo.
Furthermore, it was unknown if Su Zimo had anything to do with the matter of the Dragon Abyss Star back then.
At that moment, the reason why Perfected Immortal Wu Feng suddenly expressed his stance was not because he did not want to interfere. Instead, he wanted to advance by retreating and obtain greater benefits!
Meng Yao and Yue Hua were both smart people. After some thought, they could tell what Perfected Immortal Wu Feng was thinking.
Meng Yao said, “From what I know, that lad has many treasures on him.”
“I only want the Jade Pure Jade Manual!”
Suddenly, Perfected Immortal Wu Feng made his huge demand!
Meng Yao and Sword Immortal Yue Hua frowned at the same time.
However, in their hearts, the elimination of Su Zimo was the priority!
At that thought, the two of them exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.
“Alright!”
Perfected Immortal Wu Feng agreed readily. “How should we attack? Su Zimo is now in Heaven and Earth Academy. We can’t possibly go to the academy and kill him, right?”
Meng Yao looked at Sword Immortal Yue Hua as well.
Sword Immortal Yue Hua narrowed his eyes slightly. “We have to wait for an opportunity. At the very least, we have to wait for him to leave Heaven and Earth Academy…”
“Divine Firmament Immortal Meet!”
The three of them thought of something and spoke at almost the same time.
