Dao Equaling the Heavens

The old man of heavenly secrets answered without hesitation, and the Taiyi City Lord’s expression turned somewhat unpleasant as he cupped his hands, saying, "What kind of price is required if I want to request your help?" "Ensure that the Yuqing Celestial Lord does not seek me, and I will help you change your fate."

"..."

The Taiyi City Lord was speechless.

How could he have any say with the Yuqing Celestial Lord? The Lord was the head of the Venerables, and he himself was not even a Venerable.

Thinking back to those years in the Immortal Land, he could only watch Gu Wen from afar.

The old man of heavenly secrets pulled a bitter smile and said, "Fate has its moments; when it’s not in one’s fate, it’s futile to force it. Even I have matters that are beyond my power."

The Taiyi City Lord suppressed the disappointment in his heart, discerning the old man’s reluctance.

To avoid spoiling things, he hurried to comfort him, "The Yuqing Celestial Lord is kind and benevolent, has not ordered the killing of anyone since taking office. If he wishes to meet you, there must be something he needs."

"Why don’t you seize the opportunity to associate with one of the Three Pure Ones, and moreover..."

He lowered his voice slightly, revealing something he had recently learned.
