The Taiwei Gods who were attacking the five Divine Palaces all received a notification from Xuanqing.
Everyone almost anticipated what was about to happen, so they happily headed towards Outer Heaven Chaos.
"It's a pity that Fellow Daoist Chenxing met a tragic end, so he cannot come and expose the mastermind with us."
The Taiwei Gods all showed a look of compassion, but in reality, there wasn't much stir in their hearts,
for to Da Luo Supremes, life and death were commonplace.
Although the Ancestor Dragon seemed quite miserable this time, ending up with a "complete annihilation of the divine soul," it wasn't beyond saving.
It was the Ming River who truly showed his feelings.
He still blamed himself considerably for the death of the Ancestor Dragon.
"It's all my fault, surely my Qi Fortune affected Fellow Daoist Chenxing, otherwise it wouldn't have been him who died." Ming River sighed.
This statement was agreed upon by everyone.
Otherwise, how could accidents happen on all sides, but only the Ancestor Dragon, who went out with Ming River, directly perished?
In comparison, Ming River was not injured at all.
"Don't be sad, fellow Daoist, wasn't it just being killed? It's not a big deal."
The Age Star Venerable, Fu Xi, stepped forward and patted Ming River's shoulder, saying, "Fellow Daoist Jing Yao said it well, 'Where fortune clings, disaster lurks; where disaster falls, fortune hides!'"
"How do you know that Fellow Daoist Chenxing's death this time isn't a good thing?"
Upon hearing this, Ming River knew there was still a turning point.
He hurriedly looked at Fu Xi, asking in surprise, "What did Fellow Daoist Suixing foresee?"
Fu Xi smiled mysteriously and said, "Heavenly secrets must not be disclosed."
He could not reveal the Ancestor Dragon's secrets.
Otherwise, if someday the Ancestor Dragon or the resurrecting divine would seek him out, it would spell trouble.
"You all arrived so quickly!"
In no time, boundless Zi Qi rose, and Taishang appeared out of thin air, holding a Pill Furnace with elegance, calm and composed.
The Venerable Star Zhen Yuanzi, who came along with him, acted like a comedic sidekick and deliberately asked, "Daoist, what's making you so happy? Is there good news?"
"Oh my, have you seen through it?"
Taishang looked elated, "Actually, it can't really be considered good news."
"Just that I managed to sever a few Immortal Heads of a Taixu Da Luo, thus obtaining some excellent alchemy materials."
The Taiyang Venerable, Taiyi, on the right side, also coordinated by imitating Zhen Yuanzi's tone and loudly exclaimed:
"Oh~~, the heads of a Taixu Da Luo, how impressive, Daoist!"
"You flatter me, you flatter me." Taishang showed a humble demeanor again.
The Taiwei Gods certainly understood what the pair meant.
So they tacitly stepped forward to congratulate, "Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Jing Yao on advancing your cultivation and enlightening the Taixu. With such alchemy materials acquired, the Alchemy Dao will surely advance, worthy of celebration!"
Taishang repeatedly waved his hand, "Everyone, there's no need for such praise, no need!"
In reality, his face was lit with smiles, unable to contain his grinning mouth, feeling immensely delighted.
Prosperity not returned to your hometown is like wearing brocade in the night.
Similarly, since everyone came out "fishing" together, wasn't it worth sharing that he alone snagged a Taixu-level "catch"?
Taishang cheerfully said, "When I meet that Demon God next time, I'll slaughter him a few more times, gather nine immortal heads and refine a Nine Revolutions Undying Primordial Pill, and let all Fellow Daoists try it first!"
Hearing this, the Taiwei Gods retreated swiftly.
The supportive Zhen Yuanzi and Taiyi also speedily distanced themselves from Taishang.
We were kindly playing along as supporting actors, you can't repay kindness with enmity!
"Where did the Heavenly Emperor go?"
The Taiwei Prime Minister, Nuwa, looked around but didn't see Xuanqing.
Taishang chuckled and added, "The Heavenly Emperor, of course, went to hunt down our 'Taiwei Left Assistant Divine Monarch'!"
The Taiwei Left Assistant God is the divine position Xuanqing conferred upon the Curse Demon God using the Investiture of the Gods.
As the Taiwei Heavenly Emperor, Xuanqing possessed the authority to suppress the Taiwei Gods.
So he used his great power of reversing cause and effect to forcibly impose this divine position on the other side when the Curse Demon God was about to cast his curse.
Otherwise, it would not be so easy to lock onto such a sneak attacker.
Shortly after, Luo Hou and Zhun Ti arrived.
Xuanqing appeared almost simultaneously.
His figure was towering, ink-black hair cascading to his waist, his expression cold and aloof, the deep darkness of his eyes filled with tranquility.
"Alright, everyone, follow me."
The gods paused for a moment: "Didn't the Heavenly Emperor chase after the Curse Demon God?"
All were Da Luo Supremes, and after Taishang provided a hint, everyone sensed the Curse Demon God fleeing in the Space-Time River and Xuanqing's relentless pursuit, along with the full protection from the Destruction Demon God.
"It's certainly a pursuit, but that's just a smokescreen."
Xuanqing did not explain in detail, since not all colleagues knew of the existence of the Ferryman above the Space-Time River.
The Ancestor Dragon had once boarded the World Transcending Ship, of which he was well aware.
But the Ancestor Dragon was already dead.
"Time is pressing, and Fellow Daoist Chenxing cannot be salvaged now. We'll discuss related matters when we return!"
"Got it!"
Under Xuanqing's lead, the Taiwei Gods quickly headed in one direction.

"Hiss, you old Daoist, look at the mess you've made!"
"They've come to our doorstep!"
In the Land of Infinite, Yang Mei, who had been calm and unhurried, suddenly sensed an immense crisis, and it startled him to jump up.
Hong Jun looked unfazed, "Why panic."
"With the situation failing, how can I not panic?" Yang Mei rolled his eyes.
"What failure, is there?"
Hong Jun spoke leisurely, "My aim is to delay the extinction of the Fierce Beasts, waiting for the Order Demon God to arrive."
"Just tell me if it bought us time or not."
Yang Mei was speechless to the extreme, "You just keep being stubborn."
