The Eye of Heaven

Approximately a week later, near the edge of the Wuyin Mountain Range in Jiang Country.

A stream of light descended from the sky, landing by a lake, revealing a petite, robe-clad girl with a “loli” appearance.

It was Bai Zhihua, who had traveled from Ji Country.

This location was where she and Yan Yun had agreed to meet.

“This should be it, right?”

“Where is she?”

“Didn’t she say she was already here waiting for me?” Bai Zhihua muttered, puzzled.

After searching around and failing to find Yan Yun, she quickly took out a jade token to inquire about her location.

But just then, something seemed to silently approach Bai Zhihua from beneath the ground behind her.

Immediately afterward, a hand shot out from the ground, grabbing Bai Zhihua’s ankle.

“Eh?” Bai Zhihua, sensing someone grabbing her ankle, immediately looked down, startling her.

Just as she was about to react, unfortunately, the hand pulled with force, dragging her down.

By the time she reacted, only her head remained above the ground.

“Behold, the Heart Severing Decapitation Technique.”

“Aiya, Fourth Brother, your vigilance is too poor.”

“You fell for it,” Yan Yun said with a sinister grin, appearing before Bai Zhihua and looking down at her from above.

Bai Zhihua’s face darkened.

“Yan Third, are you crazy?”

“Is this how you welcome me?”

“I’m telling you, I’m angry, and it’s the kind that can’t be easily appeased,” Bai Zhihua complained, puffing out her cheeks.

Yan Yun immediately burst into laughter.

“I was just scaring you. Don’t be so sensitive, Old Four. Take a look, this is our past life’s little brother, this life’s little sister.”

As she said this, a beautiful fox appeared in front of Bai Zhihua.

Bai Zhihua was stunned.

“Oldest? Yan Third, you found Big Brother Xiao?”

“Where is he?”

“I get it, this is the surprise you were talking about, right?”

Bai Zhihua looked around.

Xiao Leng raised a fox paw and patted Bai Zhihua’s head.

“I never imagined, Zhiqiu, you were tall and burly in your past life, but in this life, you’ve become a little loli.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Zhihua’s attention immediately turned to the fox in front of her.

“Ah?”

“You?”

“No way, Xiao-ge, is that you?”

Bai Zhihua quickly understood that this fox was their past-life Big Brother.

Xiao Leng let out a long sigh.

“Alas!”

“Yes, it’s me.”

“You guys are lucky, at least you’re still human. Only I became a fox, and a female fox at that.”

Bai Zhihua struggled a few times, then urged Yan Yun, “Hey, how long are you going to keep me buried in the ground?”

“Pull me out of here.”

Only then did Yan Yun smile and pull Bai Zhihua out.

Bai Zhihua immediately patted the dirt off her body, then glared at Yan Yun again.

Xiao Leng also directly transformed into her human form.

After transforming, she was also in the form of a young girl, roughly the same height as Bai Zhihua.

“Wow!”

“Xiao-ge, you, you’ve become a fox spirit?”

“You’re so beautiful,” Bai Zhihua said, staring wide-eyed as she looked Xiao Leng up and down.

She even reached out to touch Xiao Leng’s fox tail.

After examining Xiao Leng, Bai Zhihua immediately pounced on her and hugged her.

“That’s great, Oldest.

“We’ve finally found all four brothers from our past life.”

“A while ago, the three of us were still worried about what happened to you.”

“To think we’d run into you so quickly.”

“Yan Third, you’re truly a lucky star.”

“Why don’t I have such good luck as to meet you first?” Bai Zhihua said excitedly.

Xiao Leng looked at the person before her, her face full of smiles.

Not only had their genders changed, their appearances had changed, and even their personalities had changed.

Bai Zhihua’s personality in particular was still very girlish, and it was impossible to see that she had been a rough, uncouth man in her past life.

“Who knows?”

“This guy wanted to catch me as a pet when he first met me.”

“It wasn’t until after I got to their base that I found out this guy was also an Earthling like me.”

“Then, after some analysis, I roughly determined her identity,” Xiao Leng said.

Bai Zhihua immediately glanced at Yan Yun, then complained, “Oldest, this guy has now completely become the villainous female lead from TV dramas.”

“She’s got strange hobbies, she likes to tease people, and she’s nothing like her honest self in the past.”

Yan Yun rolled her eyes.

“As if.”

“I’ve changed too; this gender has changed.”

“Haven’t you changed too?”

“Wouldn’t your past self have hugged others like a little girl?”

“Let’s not talk about each other.”

These words made Bai Zhihua blush, and she quickly released Xiao Leng.

“See, this guy likes to stir up trouble for no reason.”

“Oldest, you have to take on the responsibility of being the big brother; you have to keep her in check and stop her from always bullying me,” Bai Zhihua said seriously.

Xiao Leng, looking at Bai Zhihua’s serious expression, didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“Who told you to look like you’re never going to grow up, with a big chest but the appearance of a loli?”

“You just look very easy to bully,” Yan Yun said, crossing her arms, looking as if she was daring her to do anything about it.

Just as Bai Zhihua was about to retort, she was interrupted by Xiao Leng.

“Alright, alright, Old Third, let’s talk about it when we get back,” Xiao Leng said.

Then, the three of them flew up and entered the Wuyin Mountain Range.

“This place is the Wuyin Mountain Range, right?”

“I heard that a relic appeared here not long ago, causing a great commotion.”

“Did you guys participate?” Bai Zhihua asked.

Yan Yun chuckled.

“Of course we did.”

“And we had a great harvest.”

Bai Zhihua nodded.

“That’s good.”

“This time, I’ll help you set up the defensive array; however, the fee is non-negotiable.”

These words made Yan Yun unhappy.

“What do you mean, non-negotiable?”

“We were brothers in our past life, and now we’re sisters.”

“Can you really go through with it without giving me a discount?”

“I think at least half off is in order,” Yan Yun said.

Bai Zhihua rolled her eyes.

“It wasn’t easy for me to come out.”

“I told that old man at home that the customer would give me a lot of money, which is why he reluctantly let me come.”

“If I lied to her, I’m afraid I’ll be in big trouble when he comes back from outside.”

“Have some sympathy, sisters.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Leng immediately said to Yan Yun, “Old Third, everyone has their own difficulties.”

Yan Yun spread her hands.

“Alright, alright, for the sake of Oldest, I won’t make you give a discount.”

“Tell me, how much is the fee?” Yan Yun asked.

Bai Zhihua directly held up one finger.

“One million?” Yan Yun asked doubtfully.

Bai Zhihua shook her head.

“Not one million, but ten million spirit stones a month.”

That price almost made Yan Yun cough up blood.

“Ten million, a month?”

“Please, I’m just hiring you to set up an array and some restrictions, that’s all.”

“I’ll provide the materials myself.”

“You’re just doing the work.”

“You want ten million spirit stones a month?”

“Why don’t you just rob me?”

Bai Zhihua immediately gave a serious explanation.

“The level of array masters is not the same.”

“I can guarantee you that for ten million a month, the Poison Sect’s array will be indestructible.”

“Even I won’t be able to shake it once I become a Divine Venerable.”

Upon hearing this, Yan Yun’s eyes lit up.

“Really?”

“You can really set up such a powerful array?”

“Are you sure you’re not lying to me?”

“After it’s set up, you can test its strength and you’ll know.”

“If the array and restrictions I set up don’t have that power, you don’t have to pay the fee,” Bai Zhihua said with great confidence.

Because she dared to say that, apart from her master, no one in the immortal realm was superior to her in array mastery.

Setting up this kind of thing depended on talent.

No matter how high one’s cultivation was, without talent, one couldn’t set up a powerful array.

“That’s good.”

“I look forward to your performance.”

“How are my wife and mother doing?”

“Didn’t you say you were at the Righteous Dao Alliance headquarters?” Yan Yun asked.

“Don’t worry about them.”

“Their lives are much more comfortable than yours.”

“You’re secretly building a sect on someone else’s territory.”

“Don’t get caught, or they’ll definitely come looking for trouble,” Bai Zhihua reminded her.

Just as they were talking, they quickly arrived above the valley where the Poison Sect was located.

“Alright, this is it,” Yan Yun said with a smile.

Looking down from above, there was nothing to be seen inside.

However, golden light suddenly shone from Bai Zhihua’s eyes, and mysterious patterns appeared in circles within her pupils.

Under her gaze, the array that concealed the valley was quickly seen through.

“So it’s just an isolation array set up with flags.”

“Too low-level.”

“If even a Divine Soul Realm cultivator passes by here, they would probably sense something amiss,” Bai Zhihua said.

Yan Yun immediately moved closer to Bai Zhihua, looking at her eyes.

“What?”

“You little girl, don’t tell me you have a Heavenly Eye?” Yan Yun said with a look of surprise.

Bai Zhihua immediately glanced at Yan Yun.

“Just because you have opportunities doesn’t mean others can’t, right?”

“These are my natural eyes, called the All-Seeing Eyes.”

“It was because of these eyes that old man took me as his disciple.”

As soon as she said “All-Seeing Eyes,” Yan Lingyun in Yan Yun’s body was greatly startled.

“All-Seeing Eyes?”

“Impressive.”

“You truly have remarkable brothers; it’s just you who’s unremarkable,” Yan Lingyun remarked to Yan Yun.

These words greatly wounded Yan Yun’s little heart.

But it was true that among the three of them, Yan Yun was the least special.

If she didn’t have the Poison Scripture, she would just be an ordinary person.

The All-Seeing Eyes were an extremely rare innate ability.

Legend had it that if these eyes were cultivated to perfection, they could see through everything in the world, even the threads of others’ fate.

“Damn it, your luck is too good.”

“Why don’t I have such an ability?” Yan Yun said with resentment.

But Bai Zhihua just smiled.

“Your luck isn’t bad either.”

“If we’re just talking about luck, among the four of us, your fortune is the most unfathomable.”

“With these eyes, I can see a certain amount of the power of others’ luck, but I can’t see through yours,” Bai Zhihua said.

These words were quite interesting.

“Is that so?”

“Having you say that makes me feel a lot better inside.”

After chatting for a while, the three flew into the valley.

Yan Yun and Xiao Leng had returned with a robe-clad loli.

This naturally made Wen Meng curious.

They all gathered around at once.

“Sect Master, is this the array master you hired?” Mu Wenjie and the others asked curiously.

Yan Yun nodded, but she didn’t elaborate on Bai Zhihua’s identity.
