"The Guixu formation has already been opened, and the Overlord of Guixu seems to have made his final decision."

"This is a gamble."

"Several thousand years of painstaking effort, all for a breakthrough opportunity. If he succeeds, it means that another Dao Fruit level Venerable will emerge in this world. And due to the unique characteristics of Guixu itself, this newly emerged Dao Fruit realm powerhouse will inevitably be a special existence that straddles the Pure and Turbid Worlds."

"Plus, the system of the myriad heavens and realms."

"This will be an absolute powerhouse who instantly possesses the strength of an intermediate Dao Fruit level entity, with a scale of power comparable to the Great Wilderness and the Mountains and Seas, and with even greater potential than both. His impact on the balance between the Pure and Turbid Worlds will be extremely significant."

Zhuque was meticulously writing a battle report.

Looking at her now, no one would associate her with the cheerful girl who was taking selfies earlier. The rigid demeanor and the procedural language were typical of someone within a structured organization, and a seasoned one at that.

Zhuque put down her pen.

While waiting for a response, she planned to play a round of Candy Crush. After playing so many games, this simple and fun one had become her favorite. If anyone dared to delete her thousands of levels of saved progress, she would fight them to the death.

But unfortunately, the response came as soon as the game started.

Golden characters continued the report with the first question...

"I see."

"But why are you here? Concise and to the point, directly hitting the key."

Zhuque felt ashamed and embarrassed. How could she have hoped to deceive that person? Was it because she had been drinking too much QQnene (a very popular drink) lately, and had become too immersed in the lazy and comfortable atmosphere of the human world, becoming more naive? She had no choice but to honestly say, "It's a martial uncle of Qilin, named Wei Yuan..."

She told everything honestly.

She thought she would be punished, but the golden characters only paused for a moment. She could imagine the person on the other side pondering.

Then, to her surprise, words appeared that she wouldn't even dare to dream of:

"If that's the case, then it's permissible."

Huh?

Was that person such an easygoing character?

Zhuque was stunned. She then reported, "Besides Qilin's martial uncle, Qilin naturally won't be on the side of the Overlord of Guixu. Also, according to my investigation, Qinglong seems to have irreconcilable conflicts with the Overlord of Guixu. I'm afraid he won't stand with them this time either."

"And after Wei Lin entered Guixu, she became very close to Qinglong, almost immediately forming an alliance."

"So I suspect that Wei Lin is also constantly watching the Overlord of Guixu's back, planning to stab him at any moment. After all, sometimes even if you don't have any intentions, seeing the other person's posture is so good, you can't help but want to do something, just like even if you're not thirsty at all, you always want to buy something when you pass by a bubble tea shop."

Zhuque used a metaphor that she, or rather, Little Phoenix Feng Siyu, could understand, very appropriately describing the relationship between Wei Lin and Guixu in her eyes. Then, she frowned slightly, thinking of a figure, and said, "So now, the only thorny issues are the Overlord of Guixu himself, and Baihu. Baihu is a very strong one."

"And he has a very seasoned personality, like a feline that has had many years of hunting experience."

"Seasoned, calm, and very patient, a very difficult opponent to deal with."

Zhuque closed her eyes, seriously thinking and recalling her interactions with Baihu over the past few thousand years. Her expression was solemn as she gave her judgment, "If the strength is similar, and they are facing each other, I even think that Baihu's scheming and methods are even above the Overlord of Guixu himself. He is capable of killing him."

"The Overlord of Guixu is not Baihu's opponent, but now it seems that Baihu is very likely to belong to Guixu."

"This may be the only variable."

Zhuque seriously gave her judgment, her expression solemn, her temperament calm and rational. If one could ignore her highlighted hair, then it might be more in line with the current serious atmosphere. In order to successfully avoid Cancan's pursuit, she gritted her teeth and dyed her hair into a colorful state.

Like a giant balloon exploding in the sky above an extravagant proposal ceremony in an amusement park, colorful ribbons of different colors fell in all directions. If it weren't for the fact that there was nothing that Cancan wouldn't eat, Zhuque would even want to change her perfume.

But after she finished explaining her findings, the golden characters paused for a long time.

Then, they very calmly wrote: "Baihu is from Kunlun."

These six short words froze Zhuque's expression, as if a heavy hammer had struck her head. It was also like six slaps on her face, no, on the Overlord of Guixu's face. All four guardians were not his own, and all of them had rebellious intentions?!

Could there be anyone in this world more miserable and unlucky than him?!

Zhuque was stunned.

The last such large organization had to be the overly long *Detective Conan*, also known as the Grim Reaper Elementary School Student. Zhuque had learned some of her fashion styles from it, and another part of her knowledge came from *Sailor Moon*.

However, at least the Black Organization in *Detective Conan* had two people working.

This Guixu was even worse than a "wine factory". The Eastern Qinglong planned to fight desperately with the Overlord of Guixu because his childhood sweetheart Yao Ji was killed by the Overlord of Guixu.

Wei Lin was also planning to stab the Overlord of Guixu in the back.

Qilin was inclined towards the human race.

Baihu was an undercover agent of Lu Wu from Kunlun. Even she herself was not so serious.

Zhuque suddenly felt a little regret. If she hadn't been here, if she could also be in Guixu, then when all the cards were revealed, when all the methods were on the table, the Overlord of Guixu would discover that all five of his major guardians were actually double agents. What a subtle and wonderful expression that would be!

What a loss, what a loss!

But Zhuque quickly realized that her biggest problem now was that she had been discovered by this person when she was neglecting her duties. Not only had she been discovered, but she was also distracted when she was being told about a huge stain on her career, and when she was distracted, she was still shaking her colorful hair.

"This time, I will not pursue your dereliction of duty for the time being."

"But I have a new task for you."

Phew, it's good that I'm not being pursued, it's good that I'm not being pursued.

Apart from that, all tasks must be completed well, even if it costs the reputation of the Four Spirits of Heaven!

In front of Zhuque, on the A4 paper used to report work progress, the golden handwriting was almost flowing, and finally it turned into an extremely exquisite and beautiful ornament, extremely soft gold, warm pearls, and top-quality jade. It was a phoenix coronet with a vermilion gold phoenix on top.

"Weddings in the human world seem to require special attire. Go find craftsmen who can still make such jewelry."

Zhuque recognized what this was, a fengguan xiapei, the highest ornament for weddings of the Yanhuang people in the human world.

And this one was special. It would be pure gold, with hundreds of warm pearls and thirty-six kinds of jade ornaments. Not to mention the spirituality it would contain, it would probably really have the aura of hundreds of birds worshiping the phoenix. Just looking at the craftsmanship, even the stitches were the purest vermilion gold. Compared with such a thing, whether it was a diamond or a Western ring, it would instantly pale in comparison.

Zhuque stammered, "This, this is..."

The golden characters said lightly:

"A gift for a friend who is about to get engaged."

Huh?!

Someone who could be personally called a friend by this person?!

Hiss... Who in the world could have such a big face? Could something have happened while I was watching dramas? Zhuque was shocked, but she still suppressed her thoughts and said:

"Yes, I will definitely find the best craftsman. Your friend's wife will have the best and most splendid wedding."

"Emperor."

The golden characters disappeared as quickly as a burning flame. Only after the light on the characters had dissipated and the aura of that true spirit had disappeared did she quietly raise her head, breathe a sigh of relief, and feel that the Heavenly Emperor's pressure was even heavier.

From the *Chu Ci*: "Fly, Zhu Niao, make way, ride the elephant chariot of Taiyi."

Zhu Niao is Zhuque.

And Donghuang Taiyi was the name Dijun used when he walked in the human world.

One of the Four Guardians of Guixu - Zhuque.

Affiliated force - Great Wilderness.

...

The heavy weapon in Baihu's hand slashed down, defeating the enemies in front. The huge battle ax was extremely heavy, and it could perfectly operate and exert Baihu's Western Geng metal energy. Any enemy in front of him would be annihilated like a rotten tree.

The previous huge formation had teleported everyone to different locations, but they all seemed to be in the same place.

Baihu could vaguely feel the connection with the others.

They seemed to be in the same space, but there were some subtle changes. He happened to arrive in the same place as the Overlord of Guixu, and was now holding a weapon, showing his loyalty, and walking in front to solve the enemies blocking the way. Suddenly, he heard the Overlord of Guixu behind him say:

"It seems that this time only the two of us have come here."

Baihu raised his eyes slightly, and then showed a hearty smile on his face: "Ah, what did you say?"

The Overlord of Guixu glanced at him and said lightly: "No need to play dumb with me here. There's something wrong with Mao Lin and the others, you should have guessed it, right?"

Baihu's pupils shrank slightly.

The Overlord of Guixu said with emotion: "It's a pity, I treated them so well, but I never thought that these people would betray me."

"Now the only one I can completely trust is you."

"Baihu, don't let me down. After this is over, you will be second only to one person and above everyone else."

Baihu laughed heartily on the surface and said, "Naturally, I am willing to be driven by the Venerable Lord!"

In his heart, he muttered, "I shouldn't have snitched on him before. I didn't expect the Overlord of Guixu to be so suspicious and cautious. In that case, I may not be able to kill him here. Venerable Lord, since you value me so much."

"Then can you lend me your head?"

"I'll go back and deal with Lu Wu, Venerable, and hand in the errand."

Baihu thought in his heart, and had already arrived at the core of the teleportation location. There was a formation there, which should also be the core needed for the Overlord of Guixu to break through. Baihu's eyes lit up slightly, and he laughed and said, "Venerable Lord, we have already arri..." His voice stopped abruptly. Baihu's body trembled violently, and he lowered his head to see a divine weapon piercing his heart.

The attack didn't reveal any ripples at all. He felt that his divine soul and aura were disappearing at an eerie speed. Suddenly, he mustered his strength and roared, turning around abruptly. The battle ax in his hand tore through with endless golden wind, but it was blocked by the Overlord of Guixu with one hand.

"Kunlun, Baihu."

"Am I wrong?"

The Overlord of Guixu's eyes carried a hint of indifference, and he said lightly: "After all, the land of Guixu is special, and it is only natural that you all want to intervene." He pulled out his weapon, which was covered with strange poison that could erode the divine soul and rot the cultivation, and attacked at a level close to half-step Dao Fruit, instantly destroying Baihu's cultivation.

"You cultivated the Guixu's cultivation technique in order to gain my trust, but unfortunately."

"How could you possibly use the technique I created to fight me?"

The two fought fiercely, but after only a dozen rounds, Baihu had already been defeated and fell to the ground, panting heavily. Finally, he saw the formation below, and sensed that his qi, blood, and power were spreading towards the core of the formation at an alarming rate. Then, the ancient formation patterns suddenly lit up slightly, as if their true power had been stimulated, converging towards the center, vaguely solidifying from the void, and evolving into a mysterious object.

This is, sacrifice!

Everyone who steps here is a sacrifice needed for the Overlord of Guixu to set foot on a stronger path?!

He!!!

Baihu finally saw the Overlord of Guixu's eyes narrowed slightly, with almost no ripples in them, and said with a hint of sarcasm: "You thought, why would I allow you to cultivate factions, why would I allow you to infiltrate Guixu? Since I am always going to kill, then it is naturally more convenient to kill those cultivated by others for me, and it is also easier to kill those without feelings."

"Don't worry, no one will be spared."

"Go down, don't rush to leave."

He slashed down with his sword, and Baihu, one of the Four Spirits, fell, dying with his eyes open.

And the formation was activated.

The Overlord of Guixu walked forward through the blood, as if to erase all failures and return to his former throne.

Everyone is prey!
