"Senior Brother Taishan, I offended you."Taishi looked at Lu Ye with a puzzled expression, unable to understand why he suddenly called him "Senior Brother." Such a title wasn't something to be uttere...Lu Ye had known about the Fourth Senior Brother's reputation for a long time, but this time he truly felt it.

Strictly speaking, their identities now count as prisoners. However, even so, the arrival of Li Baxian attracted many cultivators who had long admired him to come and visit.

In contrast, Tan Sheng and Xia Liang, whose cultivation levels surpassed that of Li Baixian, were completely ignored.

Turning his head, even Li Baxian's brows furrowed.

Zhou Yuntai said coldly again, "What the esteemed master hates most is when family members fight amongst themselves. This is the first time, so you are unaware of the rules, and it is understandable. However, if this happens again, I will definitely not show mercy!" He paused for a moment and then growled in a low voice, "This is the rule set by the esteemed master, and everyone must obey!"

At these words, both Tan Sheng and Xia Liang revealed looks of alarm, retracted their auras, and bowed their heads slightly: "Yes."

Li Baxian also sheathed his flying sword and nodded, saying, "Understood."

"Lord," the two words seemed to hold a kind of magical power over them, making them obey without question.

Zhou Yuntai, with a cold face, said: "Since you know now, then let's make peace. I hope that in the future you can truly get along like brothers!"

Xia Liang was silent for a moment, then bowed to Lu Ye and Li Baxian: "I apologize for any offenses I may have caused recently. Please forgive me."

Li Baxian politely returned the gift: "Brother Xia, you flatter me. Let's not dwell on past matters. We shall both serve under Master from now on. I hope that Brother Xia and Brother Tan will look after me."

"Sounds good, sounds good."

Lu Ye stood aside, watching with cold eyes and a heavy heart. This was when he truly felt the horror of that soul-altering secret art. No matter what this soul-altering secret art was, it had already warped a person's nature.

Zhou Yuntai broke into a smile and nodded with satisfaction: "This is right! Since you've come here, from now on you're all family! Family! Come with me, Your Honors wants to see you, but before that, you have to wash yourselves and change your clothes."

The four of them, Lu Ye leading the way, hurried to catch up.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Lu Ye walked out of the room and looked around. This place seemed to be a mountain valley. It wasn't as beautiful or large as Huitian Valley, but there were all sorts of buildings standing within the valley, and many cultivators hurried in and out.

The valley has a pleasant climate and many peach trees were planted there. It is now the season for peach blossoms, with pink flowers blooming all over and the air filled with the sweet scent of peaches.

As Zhou Yuntai marched forward, he would occasionally encounter cultivators. They would greet each other courteously with Zhou Yuntai, and some would curiously glance at Lu Ye and the others.

When she wasn't walking very far, she came to a pool of water. The water in the pool was living water, clear and transparent.

Under Zhou Yundian's instruction, the four of them took off their clothes and went into the pond to wash themselves.

Lú Yè never expected that the four who had just been fighting fiercely would actually be getting along harmoniously in a pool, and Li Baxiān and Tán Shèngxià were even chatting and laughing as if nothing had happened before. It seemed like everything that had transpired was just a misunderstanding.

Tan Sheng and Xia Liang sustained very serious injuries. After all, they had been attacked by a whole pack of wolves before. The fact that they survived is a testament to their strength. If they hadn't escaped in time, they would have died in the spirit realm long ago.

When they were done, the four of them washed up and redressed. Lu Ye and Li Baxian looked refreshed, while Xia Liang and Tan Sheng still had pale faces.

The injuries they both sustained previously, it's impossible to recover without a period of time for recuperation.

With everything ready, under Zhou Yuntai's leadership, they went deeper into the mountain valley.

They continued walking until they reached a grand hall. At the entrance, a woman stood quietly. She was tall and beautiful, with captivating eyes that shone like stars.

She swept her gaze over Lu Ye and his three companions, quickly settling on Li Baxian. She smiled slightly: “Is he Li Baxian”

Zhou Yuntai smiled and replied, "That's right, he is Li Baxian."

The woman scanned Li Baxian from head to toe, nodding slightly: "Just as the rumors say, he's truly handsome and imposing."

Li Baxian smiled and bowed: "Fellow Daoist, you flatter me."

The woman covered her mouth and giggled: "I thought Li Baxian was an arrogant and aloof person, but I was wrong. Li Daoist friend, I'm also a sword cultivator. If you have time, please give me more guidance, Li Daoist friend."

Li Baixian said: "I dare not accept your instruction. Fellow Daoist, your cultivation far surpasses mine. It should be you who instructs me."

That woman was about to say something else, but Zhou Yuntian coughed lightly. "Shimei Yu, Your Reverence is waiting for them."

The woman with the surname Yu immediately stiffened her expression and stepped aside. "Bring them in," she said.

Zhou Yuntian nodded slightly, leading Lu Ye and the others to the front of the main hall, and shouted: "Zhou Yuntian requests an audience with Your Majesty, the newcomers have arrived."

"Come in!" A lazy voice, uniquely belonging to His Majesty, echoed from within the grand hall.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Zhou Yuntai then pushed them aside and, leading Lu Ye and the others, strode into the hall.

As soon as entered the main hall, a unique intoxicating fragrance wafted into his nostrils. The furnishings in the entire hall were rendered in shades of pink, and even within the hall itself, there floated a faint pink aura, giving it a hazy and ambiguous feel.

A low couch was laid out at the top of the grand hall. On it, a graceful figure lay languidly on her side. Several women were around her, some squatting and some standing. Some fanned her gently with fans, others kneaded her legs and shoulders, while yet others fed her freshly peeled berries.

The figure lying on the short couch over there is undoubtedly the one who has ascended.ain by fate, then it will be a happy reunion. If we don't, it will still be a memory in each of our hearts.>>>>As Yueming and Lu Ye walked past, Lu Ye asked, “How is the ghost doing Did it say anythin...
