Vermillion Bird, with the other Three Spirits' help, has regained proficiency in the Four Spirits in One technique. She decides to leave temporarily with White Tiger to check on Yue Hongling and Shangguan Huanling. Shortly after leaving, An Li contacts Vermillion Bird, excited to have found her and revealing her plan to swallow the Four Spirits of Heaven to become a Saint. An Li admits Forget-Love Immortal Revered is pursuing her, hindering her recovery, and proposes a deal: Vermillion Bird must help An Li find the Four Spirits of Heaven, and in return, An Li will ensure Vermillion Bird receives a high position and personally return Lu Ye to her.

"That's how it is."

After Vermillion Bird finished visiting Yue Hongling and Shangguan Huanling, she returned to this hidden place.

She told the other three everything about her conversation with An Li.

An Li's grand scheme was fully laid out, and Vermillion Bird was indeed tempted for a moment, but the key was that Vermillion Bird didn't even know what kind of place this was.

Even if she knew, Vermillion Bird would only need to consider it briefly before revealing the matter.

Why?

Are you kidding? Did you really think Vermillion Bird was genuinely heart-to-heart with An Li back in the Six Paths of Reincarnation?

Wasn't it because she wanted to gain An Li's trust and make a contribution before Lu Ye in the future?

Now, she finally found the opportunity.

As for the promise An Li gave?

Anyone with even a slightly normal intellect wouldn't take An Li's promise as true, because An Li's true nature had long been revealed with extreme clarity.

Even if An Li was truly willing to keep her promise.

Forget it, Vermillion Bird still didn't dare to believe An Li was someone who kept promises.

Therefore, this betrayal was only natural.

Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise heard all of Vermillion Bird's words and became silent one by one.

Good, good, good...

This is truly good!

Dark Origin God wasn't dead yet, and now he was actually setting his sights on them.

This Dao Companion of Lu Ye truly had some tricks up her sleeve; she could even scheme against a Saint.

No wonder Lu Ye was already undergoing his Saint Tribulation in the previous life, yet was still forcefully schemed against and self-destructed.

Regardless, this An Li was a talent.

The things she did truly weren't things ordinary people could accomplish.

"What do you think?" Azure Dragon asked.

Vermillion Bird couldn't help but give a wry smile.

"I've already revealed this matter, what else is there to think?"

Azure Dragon fell into thought.

Vermillion Bird spoke.

"Perhaps, we can invite Lu Ye over and let Lu Ye think of some countermeasures.

In this world, no one understands An Li better than the current Lu Ye.

Moreover, the series of plans targeting Dark Origin God were all designed by him.

Now, dealing with An Li and Dark Origin God, Lu Ye should be more experienced."

Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise exchanged glances.

To be honest, the two of them truly had a love-hate relationship with Lu Ye.

They loved that Lu Ye truly dared to act and was capable of acting, and Lu Ye's character was absolutely beyond reproach.

They hated that Lu Ye was too audacious in his actions.

That scheme from before, good heavens, a fellow who hadn't even reached the Quasi-Emperor realm designed a scheme.

As a result, Saints from beyond Heaven and Earth, Celestial Venerables from the Darkness Origin, the laws of the Nine Heavens Great Sage, the Heavenly Dao, and Celestial Venerables from above the Nine Heavens all became his chess pieces.

It was truly terrifying.

As long as one step went wrong, it could lead to total defeat.

Even now, it still involuntarily gave people a feeling of lingering fear.

If something truly went wrong somewhere, what would happen if a Saint from beyond Heaven and Earth lingered between Heaven and Earth?

Wasn't this terrifying enough?

The key was, Lu Ye actually succeeded.

Therefore, Vermillion Bird's request for Lu Ye to come was approved by Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise, and they immediately began contacting Lu Ye.

Lu Ye was originally cultivating.

Suddenly receiving a message from Forget-Love Immortal Revered, Lu Ye was startled.

What was Azure Dragon looking for him for?

He also said it was a very important matter.

Could it be that the Time River had changed?

However, even if the Time River had changed, finding him wouldn't be of much use.

It was also possible they were asking what would happen in the battle of the Time River in the previous life.

"Let's go take ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) a look!"

"I'll come pick you up!"

After Forget-Love Immortal Revered finished speaking, without waiting for Lu Ye's agreement, he headed straight for the Seventh Heaven.

Lu Ye didn't refuse either.

Soon, the two met and went to the Ninth Heaven together.

Of course, Lu Ye was not unfamiliar with the Ninth Heaven.

Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise waited in the courtyard with smiles on their faces for a long time.

"Greetings, Fellow Daoist!"

"Greetings, Senior Azure Dragon, greetings, Senior Black Tortoise." Lu Ye cupped his hands in greeting.

"Just address us as Fellow Daoists.

We asked Fellow Daoist Nine Lives to come this time because of a matter.

Please enter the room, Fellow Daoist, someone will tell you what it is." Azure Dragon said with a smile.

Lu Ye glanced at the room.

He already guessed that the person in the room was Vermillion Bird.

However, the current Lu Ye felt neither love nor hate towards Vermillion Bird.

Since Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise had shown up, it must not be a small matter, so meeting Vermillion Bird was also fine.

Lu Ye nodded and strode towards the room.

Opening the door, he saw a fiery red Que'er standing on a glowing spirit stone.

The layout inside the room was exactly the same as Lu Ye's room in the Great Dao Sect back then.

Even the spot where Vermillion Bird was standing was the place she liked to stand the most in the previous life.

Lu Ye's eyes showed a moment of daze.

At this moment, it truly felt like he had returned to his previous life, to Bai Lan Peak of the Great Dao Sect, which was the happiest period of time since Lu Ye transmigrated.

At that time, he had his sect, his Master, and his junior sisters.

The atmosphere within the Great Dao Sect was better than anything Lu Ye had ever experienced; even if there were some internal struggles, they were very few.

Even if Lu Ye was terrible in his previous life, the Great Dao Sect had never let him down.

In the battle of the Darkness Upheaval, the Great Dao Sect didn't know how many people died, but no one had any complaints about Lu Ye.

For example, Linghu Wushuang followed Lu Ye all the way up in the previous life, eventually even reaching the Quasi-Emperor realm.

But to help Lu Ye delay the enemy, he fought against a Great Emperor, burning his own life.

Even when he died, he was full of apologies to Lu Ye, apologizing that he really couldn't stop the Great Emperor.

Linghu Wushuang's aptitude was absolutely top-notch.

Coupled with Lu Ye's support, and because Lu Ye always ascended very slowly while waiting for his eight women, Linghu Wushuang's realm was actually able to be identical to Lu Ye's.

That was truly a very happy period of time for him.

What a pity...

Lu Ye lightly sighed.

It was all destroyed.

The biggest reason was because of himself.

Seeing this scene again, after feeling nostalgic, Lu Ye only felt indifference.

Let the past be the past; in this life, he would not repeat the same mistakes.

Therefore, Lu Ye waved his sleeve.

"Poof!"

All the decorations inside the room turned into dust.

Including the crystal stone under Vermillion Bird's feet.

"What is it?

Speak!"

There was no longer anything under Vermillion Bird's feet.

Her body trembled slightly, and intense heartache spread in her heart.

"Lu Ye, Lu Ye, I'm Que'er..."
