Zi Yang True Monarch, using the Earth Fiend Seventy-Two Transformations, had disguised himself as Ying Hui, and made his way to the room where Zhou Bai was located.
While he was dealing with Zheng Wentian, Ying Hui, and their party in the small courtyard, Zhou Bai had stayed in his room, working to enhance his star points.
After all, even though Ming Yue the Immortal had allowed Ying Hui and his party to enter the estate, he only let them stay in the front courtyard and permitted only Zhou Bai to enter the room.
At this mont, Zheng Wentian, Ying Hui, Zhao Yue, and Tu Tianmo had all been killed by him, their bodies stored within the cosmos inside his sleeve.
Xiang Haocu had been knocked unconscious by Zi Yang True Monarch because of his relation to Marshal Xiang Tiandi of the Thunder Departnt and was also taken into the cosmos within the sleeve.
As for Yun Chonghe, Zi Yang True Monarch still had reservations due to the Heavenly Sword elder, so he had the clone created by the Earth Fiend Seventy-Two Transformations take Yun Chonghe away to the Heavenly Demon Battlefield, planning a borrowed-knife murder.
When the ti ca, he would intentionally lead Yun Tianhe into battle with the Heavenly Demon to use the Heavenly Demon's power against the Heavenly Sword elder, allowing the Heavenly Sword elder and the Heavenly Demon to wear each other down, saving the Heavenly Court's effort.
After this series of plans were completed, only Zi Yang True Monarch's puppet clone and Zhou Bai were left in the estate at this mont.
Zi Yang True Monarch now knocked on the door and asked, "Zhou Bai? Are you there?"
Zhou Bai replied, "What is it?"
Zi Yang True Monarch said, "We'd like to discuss with you what to do next. Why don't you co out for a mont?"
Feeling the target in the room falling silent for a while, just when Zi Yang True Monarch thought Zhou Bai might not co out, Zhou Bai said, "Okay, I'm coming out."
Monts later, Zhou Bai opened the door and stepped out, clad in a black robe, one of his eyes covered with an eyepatch to prevent the Demon Illuminating Eye from affecting his sight, and the golden, emperor's sword was hung at his waist like an ordinary ornantal sword.
Zhou Bai seed to freeze for a brief mont looking at the 'Ying Hui' before him, then he wiped his mouth.
'Damn, this heavenly favor... looks as succulent as roast at.'
Christina voiced inside his sea of consciousness, "What? What happened?"
Zhou Bai described the aura of imnse fortune that he saw surrounding Ying Hui.
Christina was shocked, "So Ying Hui is the son of destiny?"
"Idiot!" Zhou Bai retorted, "This kind of heavenly favor, it looks too much like the Four Great Divine Spirits. If I consud that, wouldn't I be in for so trouble? What a supplent... what a great supplent..."
Christina inquired, "Could this Ying Hui be an impersonation by one of the Four Great Divine Spirits?"
Zhou Bai suggested, "Let's try and see."
At that mont, Zi Yang True Monarch felt the gaze from Zhou Bai before him turning sowhat peculiar.
As Zhou Bai kept on wiping his mouth, Zi Yang True Monarch couldn't help but ask, "Are you... drooling?"
"Nonsense! No! How could I possibly be drooling!" Zhou Bai insisted with indignation, "I just got so sand in my mouth."
Zi Yang True Monarch was taken aback, "...No, you have drool dripping onto your clothes."
Zhou Bai waved his hand dismissively, "Fine... since you noticed, I'll just be honest with you. I get really hungry when I cultivate, and when I'm hungry, I tend to drool. Right now, I'm really craving sothing to eat."
Zi Yang True Monarch felt himself freeze briefly before responding, "Are you very hungry?"
He could accept this reaction; after all, many cultuation practices invariably consud power, and the physical bodies of mortals were still primarily flesh and blood, necessitating copious nourishnt through eating to complent their efforts.

"Zi Yang True Monarch? It's actually him?" Zhou Bai felt a trace of surprise, "How did he get to Wanxian Island? Hmph, these upright immortals from the Heavenly Court are so sly and cunning, they must be plotting so sche against again, this guy definitely ans harm."
Christina: "What should we do? Do we take him on?"
"With my current combat strength, it would be foolish to confront an immortal head-on," Zhou Bai looked at Zi Yang True Monarch in front of him, thinking to himself, "I'll try talking to him first; after all, what problem can't be solved with a good chat, huh? Sigh, if everyone were willing to have a good talk with , misunderstandings could be cleared and the world would be peaceful."
He glanced at the panel information about the reduction of wisdom, this Fool's enhancent through the green light of the six paths combined with Zhou Bai's own recent power increase, significantly reducing the wisdom of Zi Yang True Monarch.
For so reason, Zi Yang True Monarch felt that once he confird that the other party was very hungry, the Zhou Bai in front of him seed to have changed, looking at him sowhat differently.
'Zhou Bai discovered I'm not Ying Hui?'
'Impossible, with his level of dao, he shouldn't be able to discern the changes I made with the Earth Evil Seventy-Two Transformations.'
'Then, is there a flaw on ?'
As Zi Yang True Monarch was checking himself for any flaws, Zhou Bai beside him couldn't stop chattering, "Teacher Ying Hui, I am starving. I want to eat now; we can discuss matters after we've eaten."
"Ming Yue the Immortal really went too far, putting us up in Miluo Heavenly Palace. It's so dangerously close to the battlefield; I want to leave Central City."
"Ah, I wish Ming Yue would just take away from Central City and stash sowhere safer. These Heavenly Demons are too scary; I really don't want to fight them."
"I am a pure-blooded human after all, destined to propagate a new generation with the immortals; I absolutely mustn't die here."
Accompanying Zhou Bai's stream of words, Zi Yang True Monarch's reactions and thought processes began to slow down, his wisdom continuously declining.
Initially, he was still contemplating whether Zhou Bai had discovered any issues with him, but as Zhou Bai spewed a continuous stream of words, accompanied by the slashing of wisdom, Zi Yang True Monarch gradually lost the will to ponder it further.
'With my strength, I can outright crush Zhou Bai. Why bother thinking so much about it?'
Zi Yang True Monarch's inner arrogance inflated as his wisdom dropped, 'Just activate the Array in the manor, unleash my power, snatch the Heavenly Sword first to prevent Zhou Bai from traveling through space, then suppress him and capture him that will be enough.'
With his wisdom decreased, Zi Yang True Monarch no longer wished to think but decided to use brute force to crush his opponent.
The Primordial Spirit's power gradually erged from the sea of Zi Yang True Monarch's consciousness. The next mont, with one hand forming a seal, he activated the manor Array, while his other hand shot out, grasping the Heavenly Sword through the air and clutching it firmly in his hand.
Although Zi Yang True Monarch was rely controlling a puppet avatar, it was after all crafted by an immortal and bestowed with various Immortal Law enhancents. Whether in terms of strength, speed, or response, it far exceeded the limits of Zhou Bai, especially when striking from such close range, leaving no ti for Zhou Bai to react.
Suddenly striking with such speed, Zhou Bai almost felt a flash of light and shadow whiz by, the Heavenly Sword around his waist had vanished, and a layer of colorful light covered his body, entirely suppressing his fleshly body and the Primordial Spirit.
"Ah? Teacher Ying Hui! What are you doing? Why are you attacking ?" Zhou Bai's pure eyes widened in bewildernt as he looked at Zi Yang True Monarch, "Teacher Ying Hui, let go, I can't move at all, how did you beco so strong? I can't resist at all. You could easily kill with just a thought! Please, don't be rash, we can talk this over slowly."

Zi Yang True Monarch: "Talk?"
Zhou Bai, fearful, said: "Yes, let's talk, I'll tell you whatever you want to know! I can reveal all my secrets to you!"
