Five million kilometers away from the Three Mountain Tribes was a tall mountain filled with dense spiritual energy. On the mountainside was a newly opened Immortal's Cave.
Inside the cave, Hao Xu and Kong Xuan sat opposite each other.
Sitting opposite Kong Xuan, Hao Xu smiled and said,""It seems that Fellow Daoist's injuries are not too serious. You've already recovered in ten years.”
"It's just some superficial injuries." Kong Xuan explained casually, then cupped her hands and thanked Hao Xu solemnly,""This time, I have to thank you for your help. Otherwise, I would have been in a dire situation.”
"Fellow Daoist, you're being too serious, but why did you go against the general?" Hao Xu asked. As far as I know, the zombie race rarely travels in the Wilderness. Why did you encounter a general and fight with him?”
"Humph!"
Kong Xuan snorted and told Hao Xu the cause of the matter.
In fact, the whole reason was very simple. Kong Xuan had taken human form when the war between the Sorcerer and Demon Tribe broke out. As the son of the Phoenix Ancestor, Kong Xuan had the strength of an early-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal as soon as he took human form.
However, at that time, the Sorcerer and Demon Tribes were in the midst of a fierce battle, which affected the entire Untainted Land. At that time, there were countless experts in the Sorcerer and Demon Tribes, including Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals. Kong Xuan's cultivation of Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal was insignificant at that time.
Kong Xuan knew the power of the Sorcerer and Demon Tribes, but she did not want to get involved in the war. She could only hide and accumulate her strength in the Land of Transformation.
Finally, after the war between the Sorcerer and Demon tribes ended, Kong Xuan's cultivation reached the late-stage Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal Realm.
However, Kong Xuan had discovered that the Five-colored Divine Light that accompanied her had great magical powers, so she did not come into the world. Instead, she chose to continue cultivating and refining the Five-colored Divine Light.
A thousand years later, Kong Xuan had integrated with the Five-colored Divine Light, and her cultivation had reached the peak of the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal.
His strength had reached a bottleneck, and he chose to step into the Wilderness.
According to the inherited memories, Kong Xuan knew that she was the son of the Phoenix clan and had a younger brother.
Kong Xuan had planned to find his brother at first, but unfortunately, he didn't know where to find him. So, he decided to go to the Phoenix Clan's territory to meet his clansmen.
On the way, Kong Xuan, who didn't know the depth of the Wilderness, cast the Five-colored Divine Light without any scruples.
For some reason, the general also knew about it. He had heard from his subordinates that Kong Xuan's Five-colored Divine Light was extremely powerful, so he coveted it. Moreover, the Great War of Sorcerer and Demon had just ended, and all the masters in Untainted Land had been killed or injured. There were not many Mighty Ones that the general was afraid of. Therefore, the general led the elite of the Zombies to capture Kong Xuan.
After several twists and turns, Kong Xuan was surrounded by the elite zombies led by the general thousands of miles away from the Three Mountain Tribe. What happened after that was exactly what Hao Xu had seen.
"As expected!"
Kong Xuan's words confirmed Hao Xu's initial guess and did not surprise him. After he nodded, he raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile,"Then where do you plan to go next? Continue to the Eternal Volcano?"
"No!"
To Hao Xu's surprise, Kong Xuan rejected him firmly.
Then, without waiting for Hao Xu to ask for the reason, Kong Xuan hesitated for a moment before her eyes gradually became firm. She said to Hao Xu seriously,""Since my clansmen haven't come out after the war between the three clans, I don't need to disturb their peace. My life was saved by you, Fellow Daoist. If you don't abandon me, I'm willing to follow you.”
"This…"
Hao Xu didn't expect Kong Xuan to say that. He hadn't even recruited her yet, but Kong Xuan was already one step ahead of him and was prepared to follow Hao Xu. This made Hao Xu a little excited.
However, after thinking about it, he realized that this was somewhat reasonable.
Kong Xuan was a person who would always repay kindness. Otherwise, he would not have protected the Three Mountains Tribe for so many years in the future. Even during the God-Sealing Period, he still protected the descendants of the Three Mountains Tribe. It was obvious how much Kong Xuan valued relationships.
At the same time, Kong Xuan was also very smart. After Hao Xu saved him, he didn't leave immediately but protected him in seclusion to heal his wounds. He knew that Hao Xu would not simply help him when he saw injustice.
In addition, Hao Xu was the commander of the celestial heavens.
Although Kong Xuan had just entered Untainted Land, he knew how weak the Heavenly Court was. As long as the Lord of the Heavenly Court was a little ambitious, he would not allow the Heavenly Court to decline forever, not to mention that Haotian, the current Heavenly Emperor, was personally conferred by Hongjun, the Ancestor of Taoism, and occupied the orthodox position.
Thus, Hao Xu's goal was clear, he definitely wanted him to submit to Heavenly Court.
Otherwise, who would offend a Quasi-Sage Almighty who had a powerful backer and a large force behind him for a stranger??
Even though Hao Xu's motive for saving her was not pure, Kong Xuan did not feel angry.
On the contrary, in order to recruit him, Haoxu was willing to offend a general with the strength of a Sage-to-be and the Zombie Clan behind him. Didn't this mean that Kong Xuan had more potential than the Zombie Clan? He was willing to offend the zombie clan to protect him.
Therefore, Kong Xuan was not depressed at all. Not to mention anger.
In addition, no matter what Haoxu's motive was, he had saved his life. This was a fact that could not be changed.
Instead of waiting for Haoxu to recruit her, the outspoken Kong Xuan might as well choose to follow Haoxu. Waiting for the right price was not Kong Xuan's style.
This was the decision Kong Xuan made when she was recuperating in seclusion.
At this moment, the words had already left his mouth. When he saw Hao Xu's rich expression, he couldn't help but smile. He even had a little mischievous interest.
"Phew!"
From Kong Xuan's teasing eyes, Hao Xu seemed to understand something. He let out a sigh of relief, and an excited smile appeared on his face again. No matter why Kong Xuan chose to follow him voluntarily, Hao Xu didn't want to probe further. As long as he had achieved his goal.
Haoxu was never worried that Kong Xuan might not mean what he said. He stood up and smiled at Kong Xuan with a solemn welcome,""In that case, I welcome you to the Heavenly Court.”
Kong Xuan also smiled and straightened her body. She stretched out her right hand and turned it into a fist.
Seeing this, Hao Xu understood and also stretched out his right hand to form a fist.
In the next moment, Hao Xu and Kong Xuan's fists collided.
A sense of friendship burst out from the intersection of their fists. Their heroic laughter echoed in the cave.
After laughing, Kong Xuan said to Hao Xu seriously,""Fellow Daoist, although I've decided to join the Heavenly Court, I'm only willing to follow you. As for the rest, I don't care.”
Hao Xu understood the meaning behind Kong Xuan's words and knew that she was giving him a warning. Hao Xu was not surprised by this, so he replied seriously,""In that case, I would like to invite you to join the Heavenly Court's Zi Wei Star Palace.”
"Purple Star Palace?"
" That's right. I'm both the commander of the celestial heavens 'army and Emperor Ziwei of the celestial heavens. Under me, the Ziwei Star Palace is led by the three Star Lords of Slaughter and Destruction Wolf, and the Seven Murders Star Lord is the leader. If you don't mind, I'm willing to worship you as the Seven Murders Star Lord.”
"Seven Kills? Then should I call you Emperor?”
"Hahaha!"
