Qing'er was stunned, and then a rare hint of haste flashed in her eyes.
However, he didn't want to ask more, but changed the subject, "As we said before, I have now obtained four keys, and I plan to go and retrieve the fifth one."
"When the Sacred Dragon Treasure opens, I will keep a divine crown for you, and you can use it to advance to Immortal King then."
Qing'er didn't even look at him and said indifferently, "Can I take this as compensation for me?"
Wu Tian's expression stiffened, and then he bowed his head and said, "It can't be called compensation, it's what I should do."
"I know you've made great sacrifices. If this world can be saved, then you will definitely be indispensable."
"Alright," Qing'er was not interested in Wu Tian's words at all, "If you want to go, then go, no need to say this."
"Although you took my body, we each got what we needed, so don't think about us in any other way."
"From now on, we are at most comrades-in-arms, so don't misunderstand."
Wu Tian didn't like hearing these words very much.
Although it was not appropriate to discuss romance in the face of the calamity of heaven and earth, he and Qing'er had such intimate contact.
Was Qing'er's reaction a bit too heartless?
However, he couldn't control what Qing'er thought, so he didn't say anything more and left the room directly.
Watching the door close, Qing'er suddenly turned her head, and then a look of bewilderment appeared on her face.
At this time, the Twelve Heavenly Venerates were still waiting for Wu Tian at the stronghold.
Seeing Wu Tian approach, the Demon Subduing Heavenly Venerate quickly asked, "How is it, Sect Master Wu, was everything smooth?"
Wu Tian nodded, "Yes, I have obtained the key now."
"Is that so," the Demon Subduing Heavenly Venerate breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great."
"I saw you went in for a day and didn't come out, so I thought something had gone wrong. It seems I was overthinking."
Looking at the Demon Subduing Heavenly Venerate's subtle smile, Wu Tian felt a little awkward again.
He didn't want to discuss what happened in the room, so he changed the subject, "Next, I plan to go to the Heavenly Origin Sect."
"But then again, after all, she is a ten-star Great Luo Golden Immortal, I think I should prepare myself first."
"What is the personality of the Sect Master of the Heavenly Origin Sect, is she easy to talk to?"
He had to figure this out first.
If the other party was difficult to deal with, then things would not be easy, right?
Hearing Wu Tian say this, the Demon Subduing Heavenly Venerate smiled and said, "The Sect Master of the Heavenly Origin Sect is named Ning Li, and she is from the same era as me."
"I haven't met her many times, and I remember her as a quite approachable person. For so many years, she has been guarding the key within her."
"Since you are the Son of the Sacred Dragon, then rest assured, obtaining the key from her should not be too difficult."
"Really?" Wu Tian felt a little relieved, but soon a strange feeling surfaced.
Although he didn't know the Demon Subduing Heavenly Venerate's age, he must have been nearly a thousand years old by any calculation?
And he was about to do such a thing with a woman who was so much older than him, wasn't this a bit...
However, thinking about these things was meaningless.
After all, immortals had infinite lifespans, and it was not appropriate to deduce such things with the logic of ordinary people.
So he didn't ask any more questions. After getting the address from the Demon Subduing Heavenly Venerate, he quickly set off for the Heavenly Origin Sect.
The Heavenly Origin Sect was located by the Heavenly Origin Lake, a thousand miles away.
This lake was not marked on the map and belonged to the private territory of the Heavenly Origin Sect.
With Wu Tian's current strength, it didn't take long for him to reach his destination from the Demon Punishing Palace.
The Heavenly Origin Lake covered a vast area, almost as far as the eye could see, making one mistakenly believe it was the sea.
Sunlight shone down, and the clear lake surface sparkled, beautiful and picturesque, like a fairyland on earth.
In today's society, there still existed such beautiful scenery. It seemed that modern civilization had truly never touched this place.
In the center of the Heavenly Origin Lake was a small island, the only island in the entire lake.
Seeing that there was no one around, Wu Tian guessed that the entrance to the Heavenly Origin Sect should be on the island, so he landed directly.
But as soon as he touched the ground in the forest, a plea for mercy immediately entered his ears.
"No... no, Young Master Lin, please!"
The voice was full of fear. With Wu Tian's experience, he knew that a girl was being bullied, so he quickly looked forward.
It was an open space, and in the open space, several men were surrounding a young girl.
The girl was pretty, and being surrounded by the crowd at this moment, she was like a lamb entering a wolf pack.
What was going on?
This scene made Wu Tian feel confused.
This was the territory of the Heavenly Origin Sect.
And as the head of the Eight Great Divine Sects, how could such a thing as bullying the weak and oppressing the good happen in their domain?
He continued to look and found that the man in the lead was about twenty years old.
This was probably the Young Master Lin the girl mentioned.
Young Master Lin said with a playful smile, "You don't have to be so scared, it's like we're bad guys."
"From now on, I will be your senior brother. Since we are fellow disciples, how can you say such things?"
"You are new to the Heavenly Origin Sect and are not familiar with anything. Come, senior brother will take you for a walk first."
But the girl took two steps back, still with a look of fear, and said, "Young Master Lin, I beg you, please let me go."
"I'll go in by myself later, or... you... you go in first."
Seeing that the girl refused to listen to him, Young Master Lin's face immediately turned gloomy, and he said, "What do you mean by this?"
"Woman, aren't you a bit too ungrateful?"
"I heard you were coming today, and I even came to greet you personally."
"Ask yourself, with my status, which new disciple can receive such treatment?"
"But you not only don't listen to me, but you still have this attitude towards me. Do you not want to get by in the future?"
The girl was extremely scared, her lips moved, wanting to say something, but due to fear, she ultimately said nothing.
Seeing this, Wu Tian understood what was going on.
It seemed that this girl was a new disciple selected for the Heavenly Origin Sect.
And the so-called Young Master Lin must have considerable status in the Heavenly Origin Sect.
Young Master Lin coveted the girl's beauty, so he intercepted her outside when she first arrived.
Later, he would probably do something improper.
Thinking of this, Wu Tian couldn't help but sigh.
