A large group of cultivators, consisting of mountains, rocks, and foliage, gathered, among them a few humans and members of the Demon Clan, seemingly discussing something.
The leader was a fair-skinned man with streams of water circling around his shoulders.
"Is that... the eldest disciple of Elder Bailin, Nan Wubo?"
Upon seeing this scene, the Old Dean of the Immortal Palace spoke with some uncertainty.
"Elder Bailin, his disciple?"
Jin Xu asked with some confusion.
Moments later, while he delayed his speech, the Heavenly Dao rules of the Nine Provinces Realm, which hadn't paused the scene, took interest in the young Taoist's focus and stopped the constantly changing scene, reversing it back.
The Old Dean noticed this very obvious preferential treatment and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his eye.
He then explained to Jin Xu.
