"Are you joking?"
"Mm, of course, I am joking," replied Xuanqing.
Taishang immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Phew, you guy, why do you scare people for no reason?"
"I was just saying, no matter how cunning Hong Jun is, he wouldn't set himself up like that."
"Wouldn't this just lower his seniority status for nothing?"
Xuanqing just smiled without saying a word.
Before long, Daoist Lord Yu Chen transmitted a message, "It's about time, Daoists Fu Xi and Nuwa should also invite us to set out."
Sure enough, in the next instant.
Fu Xi's transmission arrived.
"How are the three Daoists prepared?"
The Three Pure Ones answered, "Just waiting for you, Daoist."
"Shall we set out together?"
"Let's go!"

On this day, in the Chaotic Void, five dazzling divine lights silently tore through the barriers of time and space almost simultaneously, surging upstream.
Roar!
A Five-Colored Lion appeared above the silvery river, crouching in front of Xuanqing.
