Chapter 1129: Chapter 715: The Resurrection of the 2 Kings, Anomalies Above The Boundary Sea Chapter 1129: Chapter 715: The Resurrection of the 2 Kings, Anomalies Above The Boundary Sea Pan King was exceptionally straightforward.
Before Jiang Hui even had a chance to pretend to be confused and ask, the other party spilled all his thoughts and plans like beans tumbling out of a bamboo tube.
Such directness caught Jiang Hui off guard, and for a moment, he didn't know how to respond.
He pondered whether he should look shocked, surprised, or continue to maintain indifference and composure.
At his side, the Hunyuan Fairy King struggled for a moment, and seeing his good brother lay it all on the line, he readily agreed.
He was still quite loyal; since he had already made a pact with Pan King, he would definitely not leave him to stand alone.
Actually, at the King's Domain, it was rare for anyone to confide and connect with someone wholeheartedly.
Because they had experienced so much and seen all the world had to offer, they had penetrated many mysteries and understood the horrors and shortcomings of human nature; even becoming a King was no exception.
However, once the friendship was as solid as a constructed bridge, it was almost always a joint advance or retreat.
Just like the Lord of the Forbidden Area and Willow God.
“You two are already Fairy Kings, near the end of the Great Taoist duel; you are among the most powerful beings in the world, undying and indestructible, existing alongside the ages, overlooking the vastness of heaven and earth. Why do you insist on this?”
Sure, a Fairy King disciple is not to be passed up if the opportunity presents itself for free.
But Jiang Hui can't just nod in agreement right away.
For one thing, it would seem too casual.
For another, it would also make it seem as though he had been coveting such an opportunity.
He should hesitate a little.
Hearing this, Pan King's gaze became complex, anxious yet resolute, as if he sensed Jiang Hui's confusion. He slightly lifted his head, looking towards the deep bamboo grove as if he could turn the world into a snowy white with his white robe.
Why be so direct?
There certainly must be a reason.
However, the reason was complicated, and not something that could be explained in a sentence or two.
First, he had personally witnessed Jiang Hui suppress the group of Burial Kings in the Burial Domain with ease using only his own strength.
Second, among those Burial Kings, there were some he knew, including ones who were Semi-step Giants.
During his time in the village, he had shamelessly interacted with those Burial Kings in person.
Thus, even if his dear Hunyuan friend did not believe that The Master of Liu Village could ascend to Emperorship, he still firmly believed.
This was undoubtedly the most crucial factor; at any moment, strength is the most powerful character charm.
But such things must not be spoken, at least they cannot serve as a reason.
Otherwise, wouldn't it make The Master of Liu Village think he was just trying to take advantage?
After a long deliberation, Pan King, with a steady voice, enunciated clearly, “To be honest, although we presume ourselves to be extraordinary, we also understand that there is always someone better, always a higher sky. Ranks are divided between worlds, but this is the first time we have ever seen someone like Senior, and we feel an intuitive tide in our hearts. To become disciples of such a Senior would surely be to rid ourselves of calamity!”
Upon uttering these words, Pan King fell silent, looking anxious.
The Hunyuan Fairy King cleared his throat, with a barely noticeable glance at his long-time friend, his expression somewhat odd.
Since when had Pan King become so good at flattering?
Was this really Pan, his brother?
Jiang Hui's figure was hidden in the vast bamboo forest, barely visible, and a slight smirk uncontrollably formed at the corner of his mouth.
Pan King really knew how to talk.
But since things had already reached this point, there was absolutely no reason for him not to agree; it was originally just a matter of phrasing after all.
From the moment he returned to Heavenly Court,
Shi Hao immediately sought out Bird Grandpa and Grandpa Jing Bi to convey the exciting news that there was hope for refining the Three Lives Pill.
Bird Grandpa and Grandpa Jing Bi were understandably more excited than one another upon hearing the news. Although they had fallen into oblivion and become indifferent to life and death, who wouldn't care about the chance to be revived and make a comeback?
The Lord of the Forbidden Area was nearby, and after some thought, he uncertainly asked, “You've gathered all the necessary items so quickly?”
“Thanks to Senior Liu; without his help, it would have been very difficult.”
Shi Hao told the truth and briefly explained Jiang Hui's request.
Those items were all rare and sought after, and for him alone, it was like trying to find a needle in a haystack; he didn't know how long it would take to gather them all.
The Lord of the Forbidden Area nodded silently, his face showing a hint of solemn contemplation, probably wondering why The Master of Liu Village would make a request that, in his view, didn't even seem like a request.
Could there be a deeper meaning?
However, after much thought, the Lord of the Forbidden Area couldn't figure it out.
Without any delay,
On that very day, Shi Hao took Bird Grandpa, Grandpa Jing Bi, and their corpses back to Liu Village.
Shi Hao spurred on his horse and pushed his speed to the limit, energetically galloping along. Above his head, ten Reincarnation marks transformed into blazing volcanoes, continuously supplying him with energy.
An otherwise months-long journey via the ancient Teleportation Array was reduced to merely half a month due to his frantic pace.
“Is this… that village?”
Compared to Shi Hao, it was Bird Grandpa and Grandpa Jing Bi's first visit to Liu Village. As soon as they entered, the two old fellows were stunned, and disbelief and astonishment covered their deeply lined faces.
They exchanged glances, their mouths trembling, unable to utter a single word. Their hearts seemed to be struck by a surge of thunder, longing to express their feelings about the sight before them, but with their limited command of language they could only keep saying descriptors like: really big, magnificent, truly vast.
“What's that?” Suddenly, Grandpa Jing Bi's gaze was drawn to something.
Following the direction of his pointing, Shi Hao saw a rotting sight amidst mist and clouds; a towering structure emerged, breathtakingly tall like an arrow tower.
