Chapter 1034: Mass Gathering
"You must've not heard about what happened to the Golden Origin Immortal Palace because you've just come out of seclusion, Brother Lian Shi. Someone stormed into the Golden Origin Immortal Palace on their own over a century ago, slaying Palace Master Dongfang Bai, the Five Heavenly Yin Disciples, and many other powerful Immortal Palace cultivators in the process.
“For some reason, the Heavenly Court hasn't sent anyone to take the reins from the deceased Dongfang Bai, so the Immortal Palace is far less powerful than before, and I'm assuming they're not going to be sending anyone," the elderly woman said.
"That's incredible! I heard that Dongfang Bai was at the pinnacle of the High Zenith Palace and possessed powers not inferior to those of a Great Encompassment cultivator! Who could've possibly killed him? Was it someone from the Reincarnation Palace?" the elderly man exclaimed.
"Apparently, it was a man on the Immortal Slaying List by the name of Han Li, and it's unclear whether he's a member of the Reincarnation Palace. In any case, the Heavenly Court is currently offering an enormous reward for his head. However, there's been no news of him since the Immortal Palace incident, and no one knows if he's still in the Golden Origin Immortal Region," the elderly woman said.
The white-haired elderly man nodded in response with a contemplative look in his eyes.
All the while, a man and a woman had been standing near the group of Yellow Wind Sect cultivators.
Both of them were dressed in black robes, and the woman was quite beautiful and youthful in appearance, while the man was rather thin and had a slightly pale complexion.
After hearing the conversation between the Yellow Wind Sect cultivators, the two of them exchanged a peculiar glance with each other, and a faint smile appeared on the woman's face as she mused to herself in a barely voice, "You certainly are always full of surprises, Brother Han."
"Are you thinking about going to find him? Don't forget about our mission," the black-robed young man asked with slightly furrowed brows.
"Rest assured, I know what our top priority is at the moment," the young woman replied.
Right at this moment, several streaks of blue light shot forth from afar, giving off immense water-attribute spiritual qi.
The streaks of blue light then faded to reveal four blue-robed cultivators that descended out of the sky.
