<h4>Chapter 1324 He Cares About You</h4>


    Recalling all the things he had gone through, Seaway Monarch replied with murderous intent, “Yeah, he’s the one—Shade Demon Zhu Wushou.”


    Zenith Venerable pondered for a moment and slowly said, “My enemy is not Shade Demon Zhu Wushou, but if our Master is willing to help you get rid of him, then he may also be able to help kill my enemy. I will forever give my loyalty to him if he can help.”


    “Who exactly is your enemy, though?” Seaway Monarch asked curiously.


    “Icesnow Supreme, Han Tiannan.” Zenith Venerable gritted his teeth.


    “Well, we have too many enemies. It’d be great if our Master can really help get our revenge.” Seaway Monarch forced a smile. “But I do think the Great Tang Empire would be developing into a terrifying existence in the future given its current state. Leaving all else aside, just those children who started cultivation from their early, tender age alone are simply killing machines in the making. With such an iron-fist training regime, they will likely be fearsome killers in the future.”


    Zenith Venerable nodded. “I’ve been to countless Immortal Domains and seen countless Immortal armies. I even had my own share of training such an army myself. Yet, in terms of military discipline, attitude, and training regime, I’ve never seen one that could rival the Great Tang Empire’s four major legions. But what shocked me the most was those 30,000-plus Monster Immortals. From my observation and understanding, these sentient monsters have survived for more than hundreds of thousands of years and are likely even older. Their umtion andprehension have reached a terrifying level. I’m sure you have also noticed that several hundreds of Celestial Immortals among those Monster Immortals have broken through to the Golden Immortal Stage recently, right?”


    “Yeah, I did notice it, but there’s something else you missed here,” Seaway Monarch replied.


    “What else have you noticed?” asked Zenith Venerable curiously.


    “I identally ran into another disciple of our Master—that young man called Chen Zhizhong. He has the Praecantator artifact of ancient times other than being a Praecantator cultivator himself. Although the n that possessed this sorcery artifact suffered persecution and was cruelly oppressed and vanished, I’m sure you’re also clear about this n’s terror, yes?”


    Zenith Venerable blurted out in horror, “Then they are...”


    Inside the majestic pce.


    Apotheosis Be sat cross-legged on the Nine Dragons Cathedra. Herplexion was pale and her vigor was even weaker, while some bloodstains could also be seen on her chest.


    “Apotheosis Immortal...”


    After Apotheon Mu came floating andnded on the floor, he saw Apotheosis Be’s appearance and looked worried.


    Squeezing out a smile, Apotheosis Be happily nodded and said, “You didn’t let me down, Apotheon Mu. Heavenly Mountain is a trap set by the enemy and a chance to get out from that ce is dismal. I’m really thankful that you understand the truth that the chance to get revenge is always there as long as we’re still alive.”


    Apotheon Mu took the Holy Dragon Fruit from his interspatial ring, wrapped it with his Immortal Force, sent the fruit to Apotheosis Be, and said respectfully, “Venerable, there have been some circumstances and things changed, so I have yet to rush to save my four martial brothers and sister in Heavenly Mountain. I brought this Holy Dragon Fruit for you, please take your time to heal yourself after I leave.”


    Apotheosis Be was taken aback and shocked. She held the Holy Dragon Fruit and scrutinized it for a while, then turned to look at Apotheon Mu and muttered, “As one of the main ingredients for concocting the Primordial Chaos Pill, the Holy Dragon Fruit is very scarce and extremely precious. How... did you find this fruit?”


    Apotheon Mu faintly smiled in response and said, “That aside, this Junior has an important matter to discuss with you in private, Apotheosis Be. It’s very important. I hope you can grant my wish.”


    Junior?!


    Apotheosis Be was dazed because she realized that it was the first time Apotheon Mu addressed himself as a junior in front of her. It had been thousands of years and it was the first time.


    What exactly is going on?


    This person in front was undoubtedly Apotheon Mu. It was just impossible for him to deceive her eyes with some shape-shifting art or the likes. But why did he act out of his usual mannerism?


    She remained reticent for a while and then slowly said, “You guys leave first. You’re not allowed to enter without my summons.”


    Whoosh! Whoosh!


    Two elderlies, one male and one female, appeared in front of Apotheosis Be out of nowhere. Wariness and vignce were evident on their faces, and the old woman said in a deep voice, “Venerable, there’s something amiss with Apotheon Mu. He brought 2 Perfected Golden Immortals this time, and I’ve met one of them, Zenith Venerable, whose strength cannot be underestimated.”


    Apotheon Be shot a deep nce at Apotheon Mu and replied in a deep voice, “You both don’t need to say more. I choose to believe him. After all, he didn’t need to bring the Holy Dragon Fruit if he had the intention to harm me. Well, he doesn’t need to pull any tricks either on this matter since it’s hard for me to evenst for another century.”


    “About this...”


    The two elderlies exchanged nces before they finally retreated with a wry smile.


    Apotheosis Be shifted to Apotheon Mu and calmly said, “I already ordered them to leave and we’re the only ones left here. I’m all ears!”


    Apotheon Mu looked around first and contemted for a moment. Then, he spoke, “Senior Venerable, what I’d like to discuss with you is very important. Not just for me, but also for you. That’s why there must be no one else here, else after all the things we’re about to speak here were to be known by others, no matter how much you trust them, it will only be harmful to them.”


    Apotheosis Be’splexion slightly changed, but she still replied serenely, “Just say it! I guarantee that we’re the only ones left in this ce.”


    Apotheon Mu paced a few steps forward and sent a voice transmission, “Senior Venerable, my Master asked me to send his regards to you on his behalf.”


    “What did you say?”


    Apotheosis Be abruptly lunged forward and appeared in front of Apotheon Mu in an instant. Her trembling hands instantly grabbed Apotheon Mu’s front robe and she shouted sharply, “I forbid you to spit out any bullshit about him or anything else rted to this matter! Exin! You owe me an exnation!”


    Apotheon Mu smiled in response and said, “Venerable, my Master is not dead. He’s back.”


    “He didn’t die? He hase back?!”


    The short sentence was as though exploding thunderps in Apotheosis Be’s heart, shocking her to the core for some time. It took her a while to recover from the shock as tears appeared in her eyes. She asked with extremely fluctuating emotions, “Where’s he now? Tell me quickly!”


    Her voice turned very sharp when she was finally able to speak.


    “Haih, please don’t get too worked up and excited. Your injury is very serious, Venerable.” Apotheon Mu forced a smile and said, “Master is in my ce in the Misty Spring Ocean. He can’te here or even see you due to some particr circumstances.”


    Apotheosis Be snapped. “Why? Why can’t he see me now? Tell me what bullshit circumstances he’s in! I’ve sacrificed and risked my life countless times for him. Even countless rtives and friends of mine have died in battle. What are those particr circumstances that he doesn’t want toe to see me?”


    “Venerable, Master didn’t die due to his failure in crossing his tribtion but was ambushed by others and died. Fortunately, a wisp of his soul traversed through space and entered a lower ne world and was barely able to survive. Master has been cultivating from the scratch again and his cultivation is at leastparable to Celestial Immortals. But his enemies in the Immortal World, just those Supremes alone, are no less than five. Do you think he can easily reveal his identity? Do you think he cane here so easily without courting the storm toe?”


    Apotheosis Be’s pupils shrunk and she staggeringly paced five steps backward before she was able to barely stabilize her footing. Her shocked expression began to recede from her face and she growled with intense killing intent in her voice. “Are Great Emperor Danqing and Zither Demon Jiuyao among those Supremes?”


    Apotheon Mu nodded and said, “The two of them are archenemies. You may have no idea that after I left your Immortal Lyceumst time, I ran into Zither Demon’s dogs and was besieged. If it wasn’t for Master and his people who arrived in time and killed the enemy’s 6 Perfected Golden Immortals and gravely injured the other two. I’m afraid I’d have already vanished into oblivion by now.”


    Finally, Apotheosis Be understood why Tang Xiu couldn’te to see her.


    He was facing difficulties with so many enemies on all sides.


    Two lines of tears flowed down Apotheosis Be’s face. She cried joyfully for a long time in front of Apotheon Mu before she finally wiped the tears off her face.


    “Apotheon Mu, does he... still dislike me and shut me out just like before?” Apotheosis Be looked very afraid and asked carefully.


    “No.” Apotheon Mu shook his head. “Master already knows what you’ve done for him and feels guilty toward you. But I can see from his emotions that he seems.... to care about you when I mentioned you to him.”


    He cares about me?


    Apotheosis Be’s eyes widened and she quickly savored the meaning of the words. A happy and surprised look gradually appeared in her eyes before she looked ecstatic shortly after.


    “He now cherishes and cares about me? Did I finally touch his heart?”


    Apotheosis Be’s body slightly shivered and she burst into tears again as she said aloud, “Tell me about his thoughts and ns, Apotheon Mu. He has enemies and we’ll kill them all. He hase and there’s nothing in this Immortal World he can’t achieve. I... I trust him. I believe in him.”


    “There are four issues he did mention.” Apotheon Mu smiled.


    Apotheosis Be’s eyes lit up and she immediately said, “Spit them out. I’m all ears!”


    “The first one: the news that he’s still alive can only be known to you alone. You can never tell another soul about this, no matter how close the others are to you,” said Apotheon Mu. “Only both of us know that he’s still alive, even Martial Aunt Star Tears who have been following Master has yet to be told about this.”


    “I promise you on this,” Apotheosis Be said in a deep voice.


    “The second one: Master wants you to seize the time and take the Holy Dragon Fruit to recuperate,” Apotheon Mu smilingly said. “Try to recover back to your prime condition within a few months. In addition, I also brought you some healing elixirs that can speed up your recovery.”


    Apotheosis Be firmly nodded and said, “No problem. After obtaining the Holy Dragon Fruit, I’m sure I can be back to my prime condition in a few months at most.”


    “The third one: Master needs Immortal Crystals and Crystal Essences. The more, the better. After getting Immortal Crystals and Crystals, I must go back immediately and give them to him.”
