Knife Grandpa is Awesome!

Mu Rong Xue said seriously, "Look at my level of cultivation, and you'll know if I'm lying to you or not."

Gulp.

Luo Lan Qing blinked, convinced.

Mu Rong Xue's level of cultivation was indeed outrageous.

But it also indirectly proved that there were such formidable experts in the mortal world!

"Little Xue... could you take me to see the Elder?"

Luo Lan Qing felt too embarrassed to ask directly.

But she knew for sure that after learning about this, if she didn't go and witness the Elder's prowess in person, she would probably have trouble sleeping.

Upon hearing this, Mu Rong Xue immediately hesitated.

Seeing Mu Rong Xue's conflicted expression, Luo Lan Qing was about to drop the matter and not trouble her further.

However, after a moment of contemplation, Mu Rong Xue said, "Alright, but you need to be mindful of a few things. The Elder is cultivating in the mortal realm, living as an ordinary person... And about the courtyard..."

Mu Rong Xue listed all the precautions she knew.

In the end, she decided to take Luo Lan Qing there.

Of course, when they arrived, they would have to ask the Elder for permission to enter from outside.

If the Elder allowed it, they could go in. If not, they would have to leave. The Elder's word was final.

Listening to Mu Rong Xue's instructions, Luo Lan Qing was overjoyed.

At that moment, she kept nodding, engraving all the precautions in her mind.

Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and swiftly took out two items from her inter-spatial ring.

They were two stones.

But these stones looked different from ordinary ones.

They were round in shape and had a smooth, gilded surface.

"Little Qing, what treasures are these?" Mu Rong Xue didn't understand what Luo Lan Qing was up to.

Luo Lan Qing excitedly said, "You just mentioned that the melody played by the Elder could lead one to enlightenment! I happen to have two Sound-Recording Stones!"

"As precious as Voice Transmission Jade Slips?"

Mu Rong Xue's eyes lit up as she looked at the two round stones.

Luo Lan Qing nodded and smiled, "They contain the cultivation insights of a previous Elder. I spent a fortune acquiring them at an auction, but I don't care about those insights anymore. We could have the Elder play a melody, and we can record it in the Sound-Recording Stones!"

Upon hearing this, Mu Rong Xue's eyes shone with boundless radiance.

This!

Wait, wouldn't that be disrespectful to the Elder?

"Little Qing, wouldn't this be inappropriate?" Mu Rong Xue smiled bitterly.

Luo Lan Qing said, "The Elder must know about our little trick. If he doesn't stop us, it should be fine. We can give it a try."

"Alright, let's try..." Mu Rong Xue was also tempted to try it out.

If they could truly record a melody, she could listen to it every day and experience enlightenment repeatedly. She was confident that it wouldn't take long before she could become an immortal!

Luo Lan Qing was equally excited.

The reason she thought of this wasn't just because she happened to have two Sound-Recording Stones.

She also thought of her father, the King.

Her father had been stuck at the peak of the Spiritual Severance realm for a long time.

But if he could experience enlightenment, he might be able to break through to the Integral realm!

On the sidelines, no matter how hard Luo Shao Jie strained his ears, he couldn't hear a single word of Mu Rong Xue's conversation.

Only now did he realize that the two seemed to be going somewhere.

Perhaps it had something to do with that great opportunity!

"Cousin! Take your cousin along, please. I was wrong before, and I sincerely apologize to you!"

Luo Shao Jie clasped his hands together, looking miserable.

However, after considering it, Mu Rong Xue shook her head.

Her cousin's personality was just too shameless.

"Go cool off somewhere else!"

Mu Rong Xue flatly refused.

Luo Shao Jie quickly approached Mu Rong Xue, placing his hand on her shoulder and putting on a pleading expression.

"Cousin, please forgive me. I was really wrong."

A shudder ran through Mu Rong Xue's body. Ignoring him, she grabbed Luo Lan Qing's hand and transformed into a streak of light, soaring into the sky.

Seeing his cousin being so heartless, Luo Shao Jie snorted.

But there was no trace of dejection on his face.

Instead, he let out a cold laugh.

"Heh heh, you think your cousin can outwit me?"

Laughing, he took out a compass-like object from his inter-spatial ring.

He checked the information displayed on it.

When he touched Mu Rong Xue's shoulder earlier, he had surreptitiously placed a small treasure on her.

That treasure could connect with the one in his hand, allowing him to see Mu Rong Xue's destination.

Luo Shao Jie was certain that his cousin must be going to the location of that great opportunity.

Or to see someone.

Wherever she stayed for a long time, that would be the place.

Of course, he couldn't go there now. He would have to wait for his cousin to return, and then he would find an excuse to go and take a look.

Otherwise, running into her would be inconvenient.

Mu Rong Xue didn't notice the tiny, rice grain-sized object clinging to her shoulder.

At the moment, as she flew with Luo Lan Qing, she suddenly remembered something she had forgotten to ask.

"Little Qing, why did you suddenly come to me?"

Mu Rong Xue found it rather abrupt.

She had also suspected it might be related to the secret realm incident.

But their sect had completely covered up that matter. When the secret realm appeared, they had even blocked all information about it, so logically, it couldn't be the reason for Luo Lan Qing's visit.

Luo Lan Qing explained, "One day ago, I attended an auction in a city. These two Sound-Recording Stones were acquired at that auction. Guess what I saw that night?"

"This is also the reason for my coming here. Apparently, more and more experts are heading in this direction."

Mu Rong Xue became curious and asked, "What did you see?"

Luo Lan Qing said seriously, "The city environment was beautiful, surrounded by mountains. At the time, I was gazing at the bright moon from a tall building, when suddenly, a dazzling light flashed across the sky. I was startled for a moment, and then something even more astonishing happened!"

"One by one, the surrounding mountain peaks were sliced in half! And that dazzling light didn't slow down; it kept flying! I heard it was a sword beam, probably from a powerful expert practicing their martial skills."

"Later, I heard that the sword beam had cut through countless mountain peaks and was still going strong! I believe that before long, perhaps the entire continent will be shaken by this event!"

Gulp.

Upon hearing this, Mu Rong Xue swallowed hard.

She wasn't shocked by the power of the sword beam.

Instead, she seemed to know the origin of the sword beam Luo Lan Qing described!

It wasn't a sword beam at all; it was a knife beam!

The Elder's weapon!

"Little Qing, let me be honest with you. I witnessed how that 'sword beam' you mentioned was unleashed."

Mu Rong Xue's lips twitched as she looked at Luo Lan Qing.

Hearing this, Luo Lan Qing was dumbfounded.

Then, as if realizing something, her expression changed.

Seeing that Luo Lan Qing seemed to understand, Mu Rong Xue said, "That's right, it's what you're thinking. Soon, you'll be able to see that person."

Luo Lan Qing's mouth gaped open, her jaw nearly dropping to the ground.

"No way..." she muttered in disbelief.

Even though she had already guessed it, having it confirmed still left her dumbstruck.

To think that the one who created such an earth-shattering phenomenon was the very Elder they were going to see!

Luo Lan Qing couldn't help but feel reverence and trepidation towards this unfathomable expert.

Just what kind of being was capable of unleashing such terrifying power? Her heart pounded with anticipation at the prospect of witnessing it firsthand.

Mu Rong Xue looked at Luo Lan Qing's slack-jawed expression and couldn't help but laugh.

"You'll see soon enough. Just wait until you're in front of the Elder."

Luo Lan Qing finally snapped out of her daze and nodded vigorously, her eyes burning with eagerness.

The two continued their journey, soaring through the skies like meteors, drawing ever closer to their extraordinary destination.

Meanwhile, no matter how hard Luo Shao Jie strained his ears, he couldn't make out any of their conversation. Growing frustrated, he glared at the direction they had flown off in.

"Cousin, you can't hide anything from me! I'll find out what you're up to sooner or later!" he muttered menacingly.

His fingers caressed the compass-like device, a sinister glint in his eyes. He would follow them, no matter where they went. The opportunity they sought would soon be his as well!
