After Xuanqing left, neither Jing Yao nor Yu Chen departed.
"Feng Daoist, are my other two custom orders ready?"
Jing Yao Venerable placed the Green Bull into his sleeve and then eagerly looked towards Nuwa.
"Mm, they're already finished." Nuwa took out two black boxes.
"This one is Dark Star Jidu Venerable, and this one is Netherworld Fengdu Great Emperor."
She did not open them but handed both boxes to Jing Yao, "And as per your request, I've added many functions, such as Lecture Mode, Martial Combat Mode, Artifact Refining Mode, as well as Darkness Mode, Majesty Mode..."
"Cough cough, that's enough, that's enough." Jing Yao gently coughed and quickly stowed the two boxes away, then vanished with a flicker of his form.
Jing Yao Venerable hurried away, causing Daoist Lord Yu Chen to suspect the latter functions might not be very serious.
"These are the Three Pure Ones figures you custom-ordered." Nuwa opened a green box, and rays of light scattered about; primordial qi manifested, transforming into three Daoists.
These three Daoists resembled the images of the three brothers.
However, according to Daoist Lord Yu Chen's design, the images of the Three Pure Ones had been slightly changed.
Taiching Daoist Venerate was an elderly figure, kind-eyed and benevolent, with the bearing of a celestial immortal.
Yu Qing Primordial Heavenly Venerate had a middle-aged appearance, full of authority, and was not prone to smiles.
Shangqing Lingbao Venerate was youthful, with sharp brows and sparkling eyes, full of youthful vigor.
The Three Pure Ones stood side by side on the clouds, manifesting boundless celebratory clouds; Golden Lamp after lamp shone, with the principles of the Dao from all directions converging like dragons; the wind howled, exotic fragrances rose, and auspicious clouds multiplied, the Immortal Light vast and sprawling.
Properly serious to the point of absurdity.
"My thanks for your hard work, Daoist." Daoist Lord Yu Chen was very satisfied with the figures of the Three Pure Ones, even paying an extra amount to Nuwa.

Upon seeing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Nuwa's beautiful eyes: "Daoist, are you sure this isn't too much?"
Just by the name, one could tell this was another's Array Dao achievement.
"Your work is worth the price!" Daoist Lord Yu Chen spoke earnestly.
"Then I will accept it." Nuwa did not demur any further.
"That's excellent."
Daoist Lord Yu Chen laughed heartily, turning around to leave with the Treasure Hunting Rat.
"Little Duobao, come and pay your respects to your two honorary masters."
"You ask which one is the elder master? Whichever one you bow to first, that's the elder master."
Watching the departing figure of Daoist Lord Yu Chen, a smile appeared on Nuwa's face: "These three brothers are truly interesting."
Two are not serious, one is serious.
Is this combination serious or not?

This time the Spiritual Mountain Inspection Group seemed to truly be here for an inspection.
Once they had more or less toured White Jade City, they planned to leave.
Just before Wu Luo left, Xuanqing delivered the gift.
"Don't open it yet, take a look when you get back, there's a surprise." Xuanqing mysteriously instructed.
Leaving Wu Luo utterly baffled.
"There must be no good intention behind this." Wu Luo snorted and stored the Jade Box.
Hong Jun and Yang Mei appeared, seeing off the Inspection Group.
"We hope to achieve cooperation," Hong Jun Daoist said to Houtu.
Houtu responded with a smile: "After we find a suitable leader, we will earnestly consider your suggestion."
"I think that goal will be reached very soon." Hong Jun cast a meaningful glance at Xuanqing.
"Hopefully so," Houtu replied noncommittally.
After another round of pleasantries, the Spiritual Mountain Inspection Group concluded their visit and departed from White Jade City.
Yang Mei stood beside Xuanqing and asked, "Daoist, aren't you curious about why we invited the Spiritual Mountain Inspection Group?"
"Not curious," Xuanqing replied, shaking his head and turning to leave.
Hong Jun stopped him, asking, "Daoist, what do you think of the prospect of White Jade City?"
Was this a formal invitation to join their cause?
Xuanqing stopped and asked with a smile, "How do you view the Heavenly Immortal Dao Fruit?"
"The Supreme Great Dao."
That's what Hong Jun said, "Whether it's the Heavenly Immortal of the Primordial Chaos Nine Immortals or the Heavenly Immortal of the Cycle Five Immortals, your path is a great assistance to our Immortal Dao."
"In days past, I said I sincerely invite Daoist to join our Immortal Dao sect."
Hong Jun looked at Xuanqing and asked solemnly, "I do not know if you have considered the matter of joining us in White Jade City?"
Xuanqing's smile also faded as he answered earnestly, "What position can you promise if we were to join?"
The matter of free benefits should not be taken lightly.
Upon hearing this, Hong Jun fell into deep thought.
Now that Xuanqing had established the Heavenly Immortal Dao Fruit, he had proven that the path of the Primordial Nine Immortals and Cycle Five Immortals is the correct one.
Thus, the promise this time must be unprecedented.
A few hundred Innate Spiritual Treasures, with Xuanqing's artifact refining capability, people might not value them as much anymore.
"Let's do this!"
Hong Jun seemed to have realized something, looking straight at Xuanqing: "How about you become a Daoist Ancestor?"
"Ah?" Xuanqing was stunned.
Yang Mei was also startled and quickly sent a telepathic message.
[You wanted to take him as a disciple, didn't you?]
[Did I say that? You must have remembered wrong.]
[Hey, you old Daoist, actually playing a reverse card!]

At Sumeru Mountain, Luo Hou went to busily renovate the Demon Heaven.
Wu Luo sat on the Black Lotus and opened the gift from Xuanqing.
"What is this guy Xuanqing playing at?"
Wu Luo looked at the puppet; wasn't this his own Dharma Form?
Although the likeness was only about forty to fifty percent, Wu Luo recognized at a glance that it was Da Luo's Luo Hou.
"The craftsmanship is quite good." Wu Luo looked at the puppet in his hand, its image and aura were both well-crafted, and the materials used were top-grade Innate spiritual materials.
Wu Luo didn't feel offended.
It was just a bit embarrassing to be holding a "self" figure, but not unacceptable.
At this moment, the eyes of Luo Hou's puppet suddenly opened.
The first thing it said upon seeing Wu Luo was, "Woman, you're playing with fire!"
"???" Wu Luo's eyes bulged.
"Woman, you're playing with fire!" Luo Hou's puppet spoke again, voice domineering and assertive.
"This... this..." Wu Luo's face turned bright red instantly, like the evening glow in the sky, steam seemingly rising above his head.
He threw Luo Hou's puppet away as if it were something dirty.
And the throw by Wu Luo seemed to trigger a mechanism.
As Luo Hou's puppet took flight, it began to recite a series of assertive declarations:
"Damn it, you're mine!"
"Listen well, only I have the right to make you cry!"
"Without my permission, you're not allowed to die?!"
"You... you... stop talking!" Wu Luo pointed at the puppet in the air, his lips trembling.
He felt both embarrassed and angry, his body shaking like a sieve, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to burrow into.
However, Luo Hou's puppet continued its bold output.
"Besides me, you are forbidden to love anyone else!"
"Damn it, seeing this woman upset actually makes my heart ache!"
"If you're trying to infuriate me, then let me tell you, you've succeeded."
"Come home with me, behave!"
"In all heavens and myriads of worlds, if anyone dares to harm even a hair on her, they'll keep her company in the afterlife!"
"Shut up, just shut up!" Wu Luo stamped his foot in anger, nearly going mad, his face so flushed it seemed ready to bleed.
Luo Hou's puppet, with a cool tone, said:
"Are you trying to entice me by playing hard to get? Fine then, I'll play along to the end!"
"Ah!!!! I'm going to kill you!"
Wu Luo, with fury, directly pounced forward.
For a moment, the Demonic Qi on Sumeru Mountain surged and the aura of killing was deafening.
