"Sister, slow down!"
"No, Elder Sister!"
"Big Sister!"
"Little Ancestor, slow down!"
"I'm not pretending anymore, I'm afraid of heights. Slow down, I can't hold on much longer, I'm going to fall!"
High in the sky, Zhou Xuan shouted at the young girl in front of him, his face pale.
As soon as he stepped onto the eagle's back, he regretted it.
Unlike airplanes, these creatures didn't have safety seats. As they soared into the sky, Zhou Xuan felt as if the crosswinds would blow him off.
Fortunately, he relied on the formidable internal true qi to anchor himself to the eagle's back. Otherwise, falling from such a height of dozens of meters would have left him severely injured, if not dead!
"Heh heh, you're a grown man and you're afraid of heights. How shameful!"
"If the old fellows in our sect saw you like this, they'd probably regret inviting you!"
"Don't worry, Little Nian is very stable, she won't let you fall!"
"Besides, Uncle-Master Wang said you're a master!"
"At this height, even if you fall, you won't die, so stop screaming!"
Hearing Zhou Xuan's somewhat pathetic cries from behind, Lin Qingxuan, who was in front, not only showed no sign of slowing down the eagle but also made sarcastic remarks.
This made Zhou Xuan's heart even more bitter.
Indeed, what his master had taught him in the past made sense.
The more beautiful a woman is, the more cautious one must be when interacting with her!
"Alright, I'm done teasing you!"
"We've arrived!"
"Look, on the mountain peak below is our sect!"
Seeing that Zhou Xuan had stopped speaking, Lin Qingxuan, feeling a bit bored, lost the mood to tease him further.
After the two flew in the sky for a few more minutes, Lin Qingxuan pointed to a mountain peak below and said slowly!
Following Lin Qingxuan's pointing direction, Zhou Xuan immediately spotted the sect she mentioned.
Below, on a cloud-shrouded mountaintop, a cluster of retro-style buildings stood tall.
Although the buildings appeared ancient, they showed no signs of decay.
On the contrary, at first glance, they felt very comfortable, making one want to reside there personally and experience the wonderful realm within.
Among these buildings, the palace in the center of the mountaintop was the most expansive.
And here, as Zhou Xuan guessed, must be the main hall of the Lingyun Immortal Sect.
Because even before he landed, he could sense five terrifying auras emanating from that palace!
Each of these five auras was no weaker than Zhou Xuan's own spiritual energy at its peak!
In other words, the owners of these five auras were at least peak experts of the Creation Realm.
And within the Lingyun Immortal Sect, the identities of these five individuals with such auras were naturally beyond doubt.
Of course, this was not because the five people in the hall deliberately revealed their strength.
It was due to Zhou Xuan's special sensing as a congenital Dao body!
So after the eagle landed, before Lin Qingxuan could lead the way, Zhou Xuan walked directly towards that palace at a slow pace.
"Strange, this fellow is here for the first time, how does he know where our main hall is?"
Seeing Zhou Xuan's natural actions, Lin Qingxuan on the side was somewhat bewildered.
However, unable to figure it out, she gave up thinking about it, whistled to send the eagle back to its nest, and then hurried to follow Zhou Xuan towards the main hall.
"Heh heh, honored guest has traveled far!"
"We have failed to greet you properly!"
Just as Zhou Xuan and Lin Qingxuan stepped into the main hall, a resonant voice slowly came from the front.
Following the source of the sound, Zhou Xuan saw five old men in Daoist robes sitting cross-legged in the main hall.
Upon seeing Zhou Xuan and the girl enter, the five elders slowly rose, and the Daoist elder in the center spoke slowly.
"This poor Daoist is Tai Xuan, greeting young friend Zhou Xuan!"
"Junior Zhou Xuan greets Senior Tai Xuan and the other four seniors!"
Hearing the greeting from the elder holding the whisk, Zhou Xuan did not dare to be negligent and quickly returned the礼.
Because in his perception, the aura of this elder was the most terrifying!
If Zhou Xuan and the other four elders' auras were like raging rivers, then the elder in front of him was like a silent ocean, unfathomable!
And to possess such a powerful aura in the Lingyun Immortal Sect, there could only be one person.
That was his junior brother, Hei Hu's master, and also the sect leader of the Lingyun Immortal Sect.
For such a master, whose cultivation and status far surpassed his own, Zhou Xuan naturally held the purest respect!
"Young friend, there is no need for such ceremony!"
"A guest is a guest!"
"Moreover, young friend is here to help us solve our difficulties, making you an honored guest of our Lingyun Immortal Sect!"
"I heard that my unruly disciple has already taken you as his elder brother!"
"Since that is the case, we are considered family!"
"If young friend does not mind, you may simply address me as Uncle-Master Tai Xuan!"
"Senior, etc., sounds too distant!"
"In that case, please forgive this junior for being presumptuous!"
"Junior Zhou Xuan greets Uncle-Master Tai Xuan!"
Hearing the Daoist elder's words, Zhou Xuan did not hesitate and blurted out "Uncle-Master."
He had come to the Lingyun Immortal Sect from afar to save someone, precisely to get closer to them.
Since the other party had actively shown goodwill, why would he not seize the opportunity?
Calling him Uncle-Master wouldn't cost him anything, and it would further strengthen their relationship.
Such a mutually beneficial situation, anyone with a normal mind would not refuse!
"Heh heh, good!"
"Young friend is truly a man of character, my unruly disciple has good judgment!"
"Since young friend is already here, you must know what we seek, right?"
"Yes, I already knew before coming!"
"Uncle-Master, please rest assured. Since we are family, this junior will definitely do his best to help the seniors of our Lingyun Immortal Sect overcome this poisoning!"
"However, I don't know which senior is poisoned. Could you please step forward so I can take your pulse first?"
Hearing Daoist Tai Xuan's words, Zhou Xuan naturally followed up, further closing the gap between them.
"It's me!"
"Young friend has gone through hardships to come to my Lingyun Immortal Sect to treat me. Regardless of whether the poison can be removed later!"
"This poor Daoist Wan Huo will always remember this kindness from young friend!"
"If there is ever anything young friend needs from this old Daoist, just let me know, and I will surely come, no matter how far!"
Upon hearing Zhou Xuan's words, a Daoist with a deep red beard on the left side of Daoist Tai Xuan stepped forward slowly and cupped his fists in greeting towards Zhou Xuan.
"You are too kind, Senior!"
"We are family, there's no need for formality. Let me take your pulse now!"
"Good!"
As Zhou Xuan spoke, the two sat down facing each other, and Zhou Xuan's right hand slowly grasped the wrist of the old Daoist with the red beard.
"Hiss!"
"It's the Yin Yang Profound Fiend Poison!"
"This is indeed a bit troublesome..."
A moment later, Zhou Xuan suddenly withdrew his hand from the red-bearded old man's wrist, murmuring with a grave tone.
