Chapter 1046: One thousand and forty-four, Invitation
Situ Youming’s slender fingers lightly tapped on the armrest of his chair, his face thoughtful. After a long pause, he finally spoke slowly: "Where are they now?" From Elder Li’s words, he was certain the other party harbored secrets.
"They’re at the Fragrant Snow Inn in Mysterious Heavenly City. I’ve already sent people to watch them," Elder Li replied. To prevent Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo from escaping, he had ordered his men to keep an eye on them constantly, reporting any sign of movement immediately.
Situ Youming nodded approvingly. "Besides us from Great Mahayana Island, are there any other sects monitoring them?" What they could think of, other sects would likely consider as well.
"Only the Sky Water Sect," Elder Li said. No other sects in the Earth Realm had gotten involved. He wondered whether the sects in the Heaven Realm, upon learning about it, might also develop an interest in Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo. The speed at which their cultivation had advanced was unprecedented, even among the prodigies of the Heaven Realm.
Situ Youming looked toward Elder Wu. "Elder Wu, take twenty disciples at the Immortal Emperor level and accompany Elder Li to the inn. Invite them to come here. If they refuse to comply, bring back their corpses."
"Understood!" Elder Wu responded.
"Sect Master, if the Sky Water Sect’s people happen to also show up, what should we do?" Elder Li asked.
Situ Youming deliberated briefly. "Then each takes one." The strength of Great Mahayana Island was slightly weaker than that of the Sky Water Sect, so he certainly wouldn’t risk offending them.
At the same time, Elder Guo was also reporting this matter to Dongfang Sheng, the Sect Master of the Sky Water Sect.
