Zu Tian realized that this matter might be related to the foul smell, so he did not act rashly. Instead, he came to Cangshui Village under the pretext of hunting down the ascenders, hoping to get more information from Liu Xixue.

In order to show his sincerity, Zu Tian spoke first to break the silence and told everything he knew.

"So, the Ascendants were treated as drug slaves, stool slaves, beaten, scolded, and tortured. Did you know about this, or even condone it?"

A surge of anger arose spontaneously, especially when he heard Zu Tian talking about the ascenders from the lower world, which made the usually good-tempered Old Joe suddenly furious.

He had been invited into the Heavenly Palace by an envoy from the Heavenly Palace before, but he saw there that all the chosen ones from the lower world had become humble slaves in the Heavenly Palace, so he made up his mind to escape. He has been hiding for all these years and has been worn down.

He originally thought that the ascenders would only lose their dignity in the Heavenly Palace, but he did not expect that their lives were worthless at all. Even if they died, the envoys of the Tianji Hall would not punish and kill the immortals and gods just for a few ascenders.

Old Joe never knew that his compatriots in the upper realm were actually not as good as an ant.

Zu Tian opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but finally remained silent.

He was raised in the Heavenly Palace, and his thoughts and ideas have been formed. Even if he has no ill intentions, there is a sense of nobility in his words and deeds. He doesn't understand why Old Joe is angry.

Liu Xixue also frowned, but she knew that now was not the time to be angry. After all, the conflict between the Heavenly Palace and the Ascendants may have existed for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. It was simply a fantasy to expect to change the current situation by relying on Zutian's "change of heart".

"Old Joe, don't get excited. Our first priority now is to figure out those fairy bones."

With Liu Xixue's comfort, Old Qiao slowly calmed down. He clenched his fists with bulging veins, lowered his head and said nothing.

Jing Tianlei on the side seemed to be very afraid of Zu Tian, ​​fearing that he was a monster. He shrank in the corner and dared not make a sound, but his ears were perked up to listen to the noise outside.

Those who ascend from the lower world possess immortal bones from the moment they ascend, but they are still different from the real immortals in heaven.

Now, the hole in the fourth heaven couldn't be closed no matter what, and immortal bones were still falling out of it continuously. Zutian could tell at a glance that the immortal bones of the immortals in it were more than those of the ascenders!

But the most incredible thing is that there is no shortage of immortals and gods in the Heavenly Palace.

So where do these extra sacral bones come from?

You can't think about this matter too much, or it will make you feel creepy.

“Maybe it’s a patron spirit.”

Old Joe finally spoke, slowly stating the key points.

It had been so long since he ascended that he couldn't remember clearly. He might even be older than Zutian, so of course he knew a lot of things that happened before.

When he ascended to heaven, the temples dedicated to the guardian spirits in various places had not yet become so dilapidated, and he had even witnessed the appearance of the guardian spirits several times with his own eyes.

At that time, Old Joe felt that the guardian spirits were more like the patron saints of the mortal world, and they were more worthy of the status of gods than the high and mighty messengers from heaven.

But gradually, the patron spirits stopped appearing, and temples everywhere became overgrown with weeds.

Perhaps it was from that time that the attitude of the Heavenly Palace towards those who ascended to heaven changed. Originally, they were only persuaded to stay in the Heavenly Palace, perhaps they could become a small immortal official, but now they are humiliated in every way, and some even die after ascending.

If not for this, it would have been a fantasy for Old Joe to escape.

In addition, the Heavenly Palace has intensified its efforts to search for secret manuals stolen from the upper realm, even to the point of wanting to completely monopolize the cultivation of immortals.

Combined with what Zu Tian said, Old Qiao increasingly suspected that this matter was related to the protective spirit.

Liu Xixue had just arrived and didn't know anything about the guardian spirit, so she could only listen quietly to the conversation between the two.

Zutian is very powerful. If he can win over the power of the Heavenly Palace, his future will be easier.

"Sheltering spirits... It's really strange. The spirits have been silent for many years, and even the Immortal Master doesn't know where they are hiding... Could it be that the spirits are interfering? But how did they do it?"

Zu Tian frowned, trying to find the connection between the multiple incidents. At this moment, the expressions of the three people suddenly changed, and they looked up at each other.

After all, the upper realm is still the territory of the Heavenly Palace. Lao Qiao thought that those people would chase to Cangshui Village, but he didn't expect it to be so soon!

"somebody is coming."

Zu Tian raised his hand to stop the two people who were about to make a move, and shook his head meaningfully.

"There is something fishy about this matter, and we need to find clues. I will go deal with those people first, and you guys stay hidden and don't come out."

Since it is clear that there is something strange in the Heavenly Palace, Zu Tian will temporarily protect Liu Xixue and others so that nothing will happen.

He left the magic weapon alone, concealed the breath of the two people layer by layer, and then stepped on the cloud to go somewhere.

Outside Cangshui Village, a group of celestial messengers have gathered, looking unfriendly.

The god in the front holds the Gold-Devouring Seal of Impermanence, and is accompanied by a pretty fairy.

"Brother, my dear brother, if you meet him, you must show mercy and don't hurt my ideal husband."

Tao Yun softened her voice and shook Yun Fei's arm coquettishly, showing that she would not give up until he agreed.

Tao Yun was the fairy who had previously let her spirit pet indulge in playing in Cangshui Village. If it weren't for the limited power of Shen Yuzhi's possession, she would have been reduced to ashes long ago.

The Heavenly Palace is extremely concerned about its own image. If other fairies indulge their pets like Tao Yun, they will definitely be punished. But she does not need to worry. After all, she has a brother who is a god in the upper three realms. He is her backer.

Yun Fei was also a little helpless. He loved his only sister, but Tao Yun had poor taste. Why did she fall for that man?

The Ninth Heaven has issued an order that the two people from that day must be captured, and even the gods cannot disobey the order of the Ninth Heaven.

But he has always been a sister-con, and he couldn't tell Taoyun with certainty that the man would definitely die.

It was because he was overly doting that Tao Yun became more and more spoiled.

"My dear sister, didn't I send you a few good-looking Ascendants a few days ago? Don't you like them?"

Tao Yun has always been obsessed with looks, so why did she fall for that guy that day?

In Yun Fei's impression, Jing Tianlei looked ordinary, and even the green lines on him were a bit creepy.

"I don't care, I don't care. I just want him. Those Ascendants are so boring! They just tremble in fear every day. It's boring. I would have chopped off their hands and feet and fed them to my spirit beasts long ago.

Brother, just believe me, he is really different from others, anyway, I want him, otherwise I will ignore you!"

Tao Yun was in a bad mood and Yun Fei could only coax her. The Heavenly Palace messenger behind him seemed to be accustomed to this scene and did not dare to stop her or even look at her.

Tao Yun's expression suddenly became distorted, as if she had thought of something.

"Brother, and that woman, you must kill her! How dare she touch my things!"

That night, Liu Xixue carried the unconscious Jing Tianlei away quickly. Tao Yun saw all of this and was so angry that she killed a few more ascenders that night.

In her eyes, "Jing Tianlei" was already her property, but Liu Xixue was so close to him, it was obvious that she wanted to steal her things!
