Lu Haosheng had set a eting ti three months from now. It is estimated that True Monarch Azure Mist also considered that ng Zhang had only recently entered the Primordial Spirit stage and would need ti to familiarize himself with the realm of the Primordial Spirit.
By the ti three months pass, ng Zhang would have been in the Primordial Spirit stage for about a year. With a year's ti, he should have adapted to the realm of the Primordial Spirit no matter what.
True Monarch Azure Mist's consideration was very thoughtful, and Lu Haosheng's attitude was extrely low-profile, showing full sincerity. Regardless of any grievances between Taiyi Sect and New Beast King Mountain, at least at this mont, they couldn't brush off the face of True Monarch Azure Mist.
Niu Dawei, who held this thought, was tempted to agree right away. However, he knew he couldn't make decisions for ng Zhang and went to consult him as usual.
This wasn't a bad thing, and ng Zhang should have casually agreed. However, this ti, he hesitated for a long ti.
After a long silence, Niu Dawei was asked to bring Lu Haosheng in front of ng Zhang.
Since achieving the Primordial Spirit, ng Zhang had rarely seen outsiders, yet this ti, he took the initiative to et Lu Haosheng.
Lu Haosheng was excited to et ng Zhang True Monarch. After the eting, his attitude beca even more respectful, and no one could find any fault in it.
Speaking of it, ng Zhang had so previous contact with Lu Haosheng. Lu Haosheng, as the senior elder of the Lu Family, was older and of higher generation than ng Zhang. His cultivation base was at the Gold Core stage, and he wasn't necessarily inferior to ng Zhang at that ti.
Back then, ng Zhang would address him as "senior" without fail. Now, their identities were different, but Lu Haosheng seed completely at ease with this change, accepting it without any awkwardness.
Observing Lu Haosheng's extre humility, ng Zhang couldn't find anything suspicious about him. ng Zhang's talent in the Divine Ability "Mind Reading" had also improved since he entered the Primordial Spirit stage.
However, when a cultivator reaches the Gold Core stage, their soul becos refined, and they hide their thoughts deeply. Unless using forceful thods, it is difficult to discern their thoughts.
Especially for those sects or clans with formidable inheritances, they would teach their core disciples a secret technique to lock their minds, allowing them to guard various secrets.
Even though ng Zhang's cultivation base was one realm higher than Lu Haosheng's, and his Mind Reading had improved, he still couldn't read Lu Haosheng's thoughts.
He could only vaguely sense a hidden feeling of dissatisfaction and jealousy within Lu Haosheng. It was quite normal for him to have such thoughts. Originally, a junior who was not as good as himself suddenly rose to a position above him, and he had to be respectful and dare not show any negligence. If he were to accept all this without any dissatisfaction, that would be strange.
Even if ng Zhang was a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, it wouldn't be right for him to hold a grudge against Lu Haosheng just because of his hidden dissatisfaction. ng Zhang chatted with Lu Haosheng, trying hard to read his thoughts.
After trying for a while, he had to give up. The only way to read Lu Haosheng's mind would be to subdue him and forcefully disrupt his ntal state, but doing so without a reason would not only cause a complete break with the Lu Family but also make enemies with True Monarch Azure Mist.
ng Zhang didn't actually notice anything amiss; it was just an instinct to try to understand Lu Haosheng's true thoughts. Faced with Lu Haosheng's eager invitation and considering True Monarch Azure Mist's presence behind him, ng Zhang found it difficult to refuse. In the end, he agreed to Lu Haosheng's invitation, assuring him that he would appear at Lu Family's secondary residence on ti.
After seeing off Lu Haosheng, ng Zhang pondered carefully but didn't find any suspicious points. However, deep inside, he always felt a vague sense of unease. As a Diviner, he often had more doubts than a woman. Such feelings of unease and suspicion were not uncommon. Though most of the ti these doubts were unnecessary and turned out to be groundless, completely ignoring them wouldn't be appropriate either. If an unexpected event were to occur and he hadn't taken precautions, it might be too late for regrets.
ng Zhang had plenty of ti before the appointnt, with more than two months passing since he secretly left Taiyi Sect's gates after instructing Niu Dawei. After ng Zhang achieved the Primordial Spirit, he rarely received visitors. Now, with Niu Dawei covering for him, nobody noticed that he had left the sect, and his whereabouts remained unknown, even to his most trusted disciple.
As the three months approached, ng Zhang returned to Taiyi Sect. His journey had left him with a dusty appearance, but he concealed any details about his departure as if nothing had happened.
On the day before the appointnt, Lu Haosheng arrived early at Taiyi Sect's gate aboard a Third Rank Cloud Boat. Throughout the entire Jiuqu League, there were only a few Fourth Rank Cloud Boats. Even for Gold Core families like Lu Family, it was already the limit to provide a Third Rank Cloud Boat. Lu Haosheng's personal arrival on the Third Rank Cloud Boat was a great show of respect and face for ng Zhang.
The location of the appointnt, the Lu Family secondary residence, was located to the north of Great Wind City, just a few thousand miles away from Taiyi Sect's gate, the Hundred Grass Slope. With the speed of a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, the journey would take no more than half a day.
However, traveling alone, he looked haggard, as if not showing the aura befitting a Primordial Spirit True Monarch. But when he sat on the Cloud Boat sent by Lu Family, surrounded by a large group of followers, the grandeur and splendor were evident.
ng Zhang happily accepted Lu Family's goodwill, not even bothering to bring along any attendants or disciples. He rode alone on the Third Rank Cloud Boat provided by Lu Family.
Lu Haosheng led a carefully selected group of Lu Family disciples, attending to ng Zhang cautiously. The Cloud Boat, like a small mountain, soared into the sky, accompanied by a fleet of small flying boats, adding to its impressive presence.
ng Zhang didn't go into the cabin to receive Lu Family's attentive hospitality; instead, he stood alone on the deck of the Cloud Boat, gazing into the distance, lost in thought. Lu Family cultivators, including Lu Haosheng, didn't dare to disturb a contemplative Primordial Spirit True Monarch.
Attendants waited carefully in the distance, ready to obey ng Zhang's instructions at any ti. The Third Rank Cloud Boat flew smoothly and swiftly in the high skies.
Before nightfall, the Cloud Boat, guarded by the flying boat fleet, had already reached its destination, hovering above the Lu Family secondary residence.
