The woman in black, Hei Mei, cupped her fists and said to the person above:
"May I know how to address you?"
Yang Yangyang also cupped his fists and returned the gesture:
"Kongyang."
This was, of course, just a randomly made-up name.
"Master Kongyang, our leader and the Tianyuan Sect Elder are old acquaintances. Could you tell us if the Tianyuan Sect has any plans to come forth recently?"
Yang Yangyang let out a hearty laugh, mounted his Flying Sword, and soared into the sky, leaving these words behind in the air.
"Heaven and Earth Swapping, evil spirits appearing, the Tianyuan Sect cannot stand by idly. In a month, we will step out of the mountain gate to seek out the fated ones and eradicate evil spirits!"
His voice immediately echoed through the heavens and earth, leaving everyone on the set in a daze.
"The Tianyuan Sect... in a month... will come forth?"
Someone mumbled to themselves, then their expression changed dramatically, their eyes filled with shock.
But when they looked up again, the man in green had long vanished without a trace.
"Was, was what he said true...? Cultivators will really appear in a month?"
Ma You was also in a state of disbelief.
He looked with a complicated expression toward the direction where the man had left, and quietly asked Ji Pengzhi beside him.
Ji Pengzhi didn't respond directly but said instead:
"There are more and more abnormal events happening around the world, it's time for us to take action as well..."
Ma You was slightly stunned, then turned to give Ji Pengzhi a deep look, nodded, and said:
"Mr. Ji, I understand now, thank you for your personal guidance this time. I hope we will have a chance to work together again next time."
"Hehe, there will be."
As the two spoke, the crew gradually snapped out of the shock from earlier and began packing up under the director's supervision.
Their mission was almost completed to this point.
The scene featuring Yang Yangyang was barely a minute long; once this part was shot, they could go down the mountain and return home.
Yet after witnessing the wonders of this immortal mountain, they were a bit reluctant to leave now.
Many were looking back repeatedly in the direction the cultivator had flown from as they left.
"Buzz~"
A sword hum suddenly rang out in the sky.
Everyone was quite surprised and looked up, only to see the person from earlier returning.
Yang Yangyang descended in front of the group, striding towards someone amid the shocked gazes of everyone.
That person was Chu Liang.
Seeing the other party walking straight towards him, Chu Liang was initially a bit dazed, but then his heart was suddenly filled with intense excitement.
He just now reacted, realizing he seemed to have met this person somewhere before.
It was the person who came to save him last time in Gaul.
Yang Yangyang walked up to him, flipped his hand, and took out three small bottles containing golden liquid.
"I remember you. Our Sect Leader said he also wanted to thank you for passing the message last time. This is his gift for you, so please accept it."
Looking at the little bottles radiating golden light piled towards him, Chu Liang's eyes nearly went wide.
He couldn't have imagined that the other party would actually return to find him and even give him such a few seemingly valuable gifts.
People around him were looking at him with expressions as if they were staring at a monster.
They hadn't expected that this guy, whom they thought had only gotten into the crew by mooching off his sister, knew the Sect Leader of the Tianyuan Sect?
Although, from the information revealed by the cultivator, they didn't seem to be very familiar.
Even after this thank-you gift, they might never have contact again.
But still, having had any association with the Sect Leader of such a cultivation sect must be a tremendous fortune!
After all, that's the Sect Leader of the Tianyuan Sect, likely the powerful cultivator who subdued that giant back then!
To have had any contact with such a powerful figure, even if it was insignificant, would be enough for this kid to make waves in the circle in the future.
Looking at those little bottles in his hands, although it's unclear what's inside them.
But judging from the faint golden glow they emit, it surely couldn't be something ordinary!
There might even be legendary Spiritual Medicine for Washing Marrow in them.
Just one sip, and one could turn into a world-class master immediately!
At this moment, everyone looking at Chu Liang was filled with intense envy, wishing they could trade places with him.
Chu Xiaoxiao was also in disbelief.
When did her brother get to know these people?
Why didn't she, as his sister, know about it?
Even the deputy director, who usually looked disdainfully at this freeloader, had slowly changed his expression at this moment.
Secretly kicking himself for having been so idle before to go out of his way to mock this person.
At that moment, everyone's emotions were like overturning a spice rack, filled with various feelings, and their attitude towards Chu Liang underwent a dramatic change.
"Th-thank you..."
Chu Liang dazedly accepted the little bottles from the other party, still feeling in a bit of a cloud at this point.
It wasn't until Yang Yangyang handed him the bottles and re-boarded his Flying Sword to leave that he snapped out of it.
Unconsciously, he gripped the little bottle tightly, as if afraid someone would come to snatch it.
But he was entirely overthinking it.
The gift from the Tianyuan Sect cultivator given openly to him, especially by that mysterious and powerful Sect Leader, wouldn't be eyed by anyone with any sense, surely.
Chang Hai and others standing by were watching with envy.
He recognized what the other held; it was the Sun Essence their Hidden Dragon Team had used before.
This potion was extremely precious within their Abnormality Department, and even the leader, Hu Hu, was unwilling to use even a single bottle, allocating all limited quotas to their combat personnel.
Seeing this kid getting three bottles at once, he naturally felt incredible envy.
But he naturally wouldn't demand any, and if anyone else tried to target those two bottles, he would step forward to help.
These were gifts from the Immortal Alliance.
The Abnormality Department and the Immortal Alliance had a series of collaboration plans, making it impossible to do something that would displease the other side for just three potions.
Now, the way he looked at Chu Liang was already different.
Originally, he had just seen this performance as a job, wanting to wrap up and head back as soon as the mission was complete; there was plenty to do within the organization.
But at this moment, Chang Hai felt as if he'd gained a bit of a unique benefit.
Since this kid's so lucky to have acquired three bottles of Sun Essence, after using them, his physical quality was bound to improve tremendously.
Could he try bringing him in to add some combat strength to the organization?
After all, that would be a bargain falling right into their lap.
You don't need to use the quota of Transcendent resources to train him, yet you could gain a warrior effortlessly; it's just a fantastic deal.
But before bringing him in, a comprehensive assessment had to be done.
Not just anyone could join the Abnormality Department; meeting specific criteria was necessary.
At this point, Chu Liang was unaware that he had already caught the eye of this middle-aged man at his side.
He was focusing carefully on the potion in his hand, not even willing to put it in his pocket.
Eventually, it was the only woman in the Hidden Dragon Team, Hei Mei, who couldn't stand it and advised him to use one bottle right now since there were no negative side effects.
Around them, others were also eager to see what would happen after drinking the potion and chimed in to encourage.
Chu Liang was just as excited at heart, and being urged by the others, he finally unscrewed the cap and drank it.
