The content of the transaction was quite simple; Zuo Dao just wanted to exchange two people. The combination of Tang Fengyue and the Lu Family was a decision Zuo Dao had contemplated for a long time.
He could understand Tai Shu Reincarnation's fury, akin to a child whose beloved toy had been snatched away. However, Tai Shu Yun's assistance was more of a hindrance; she still hadn't fully grasped her position in Tai Shu Reincarnation's heart.
Understanding aside, being targeted repeatedly with such overwhelming intent made Zuo Dao somewhat uncomfortable. It was not his style to be struck without retaliating.
A bit of momentum began to coalesce within him. He wanted to unleash it all at once but doubted whether it would blow apart the entire Spirit Sword Mountain.
After emerging from the Great Dream Mirror, he discovered that his Realm had jumped directly from Qi Refinement Level to Concentration Realm. That was a leap across three major Realms. He also realized that each time he entered the illusion, his Realm would elevate. He wondered if this was due to possessing the Mirror Realm. However, he still hadn't figured out what kind of treasure the Mirror Realm truly was.
Tai Shu Reincarnation's expression gradually grew serious. The figure before him, Zhen, was a Monster; under the pressure of his Spirit Void Realm's momentum and killing intent, Zuo Dao could still counterattack? Moreover, the nature of that counterattack was bizarre.
In typical battles among Cultivators, momentum is usually forcefully broken rather than slowly consumed. Yet he noticed that Zuo Dao began to assimilate his aura under his oppressive presence while gradually dividing his own momentum.
How on earth did this kid cultivate?
Tai Shu Reincarnation also grew irritable; how could a Divine Realm Cultivator attempt to contend with a Virtual Realm Cultivator? If he retreated like this, it would be embarrassing for him, Tai Shu Reincarnation.
Mental battles were far more perilous than physical ones, but neither of them were ordinary individuals. They fought while maintaining control over their limits. Even so, it stirred most of the people on Spirit Sword Mountain.
The first to sense it was Tai Shu Yi. He was very familiar with Tai Shu Reincarnation's momentum and Spiritual Awareness, but the aura intertwined with Tai Shu Reincarnation felt entirely foreign, leading him to believe someone had attacked the mountain gate. Upon closer inspection, he noticed Tai Shu Yun was also present; however, her concerned gaze was directed at the young Cultivator across from her.
What a young Cultivator! This was Zuo Dao's first impression on Tai Shu Yi. Generally, at their Realm, they could sense any deception related to age. He was astonished that such a young Cultivator could withstand his uncle's oppressive aura.
Soon after, elders from Spirit Sword Mountain sensed trouble coming from the main hall, followed by the Seven Lords and others. In short, the mid-to-high ranks of Spirit Sword Mountain were alarmed. A Dao Sword light shot toward the elder hall as they sought to discover who dared to cause trouble at Spirit Sword Mountain. Although not considered a top-tier force in the Great Star Domain, there were times even those top-tier forces hesitated to provoke Spirit Sword Mountain.
As they put it: The people of Spirit Sword Mountain are a bunch of lunatics.
Zuo Dao observed that most people had arrived before he spoke up.
"Regarding your esteemed cultivation level, I deeply admire it; why don’t we just leave it at that? I have no interest in being treated like a monkey."
Upon hearing this, Tai Shu Yun finally relaxed her tense nerves. On one side was a family member, and on the other was someone she had feelings for; she certainly did not want anything to happen between the two. Just as she was about to speak, she was stopped by Zuo Dao's gaze.
At that moment, Tai Shu Reincarnation felt as if a hurricane had swept through his heart. The shock brought on by Zuo Dao was simply overwhelming. Under the pressure of a Virtual Realm Cultivator, not only was he unharmed, but he could also engage in light-hearted conversation. This was undoubtedly an extraordinary Monster; in his memory, there was no such prodigy in the Great Star Domain!
With a hint of indignation dissipating from him, Tai Shu Reincarnation took his seat again, and the entire hall returned to calm.
"Child, you are indeed clever," Tai Shu Reincarnation remarked, like a competitive child. Although he acknowledged Zuo Dao's strength in his heart, he showed no signs of weakness in his words.
Zuo Dao merely smiled and said nothing more. Yet this very demeanor left an even deeper impression on Tai Shu Reincarnation.
Proud yet unruffled.
Regarding Zuo Dao's transaction, he did not take it to heart. What concerned him most was why his granddaughter had brought this Monster up the mountain, and judging by Tai Shu Yun's expression, she seemed quite invested in him.
He knew his granddaughter well; he had never seen her so attentive to a man before. A sense of crisis began to brew within him, accompanied by an undeniable worry.
The child had grown up and was ready to forge her own path. Therefore, he needed to help her navigate it well. He had to get to the bottom of who this young man was; he did not want his precious granddaughter to be harmed.
"We won't discuss your transaction for now. How did you come to know Yun'er?" At this point, Tai Shu Reincarnation adopted a senior's demeanor, leaving Zuo Dao somewhat speechless.
Indeed, age brings wisdom, especially for one who has lived for hundreds or thousands of years.
Zuo Dao then recounted how he met Tai Shu Yun and shared his background with Tai Shu Reincarnation. Of course, he altered his identity slightly—from someone from a Low-Level Star sphere to a native of a distant planet in the Great Star Domain who studied under a reclusive Dan Master. He explained that he was out on an Experience mission.
Tai Shu Reincarnation did not dwell too much on Zuo Dao's background; after all, this world was vast, and having one or two hidden masters was quite normal.
However, when he heard that Tai Shu Yun had been attacked and nearly killed, he became furious—he almost took the disciples of Spirit Sword Mountain out for a sweep.
It was only after considering Tai Shu Yun's safety that he calmed down.
Now, let's get to the main topic. Tai Shu Reincarnation is first and foremost an elder of Spirit Sword Mountain, and only then a senior of Tai Shu Yun. The previous actions were all laid out as groundwork for the present moment.
If Zuo Dao's identity truly has no doubts surrounding it, then he wouldn't oppose having such a Monster as his granddaughter-in-law; this way, it would be mutually beneficial.
Thus, the old man and a couple of foxes engaged in casual conversation, being nonchalant whenever the main topic was brought up, all in an effort to secure the greatest leverage for themselves.
During this time, Tai Shu Reincarnation even hinted that if Zuo Dao and Tai Shu Yun had intentions, he wouldn’t oppose them. This made Zuo Dao inwardly curse the other for being disrespectful to his age.
Tai Shu Yun had never seen her grandfather converse with someone like this. It seemed that the matters at hand were somewhat related to her. Although she was confused, she vaguely sensed something and stood blushing close to Tai Shu Reincarnation.
This made Tai Shu Reincarnation shake his head internally; indeed, a girl grows up too fast. But it was no wonder—Zuo Dao was quite handsome and exuded a captivating aura. Among people, he truly resembled a Dragon and Phoenix; there was no exaggeration in that.
Eventually, Zuo Dao really didn’t want to continue with Tai Shu Reincarnation. He feared that if they went on, Tai Shu Reincarnation would directly push Tai Shu Yun onto him.
“Great Elder, this isn’t a solution either. Just in time, Sword Master and the others have arrived; why don’t we all sit down and have a good talk?”
“Very well. Although I am the Great Elder of Spirit Sword Mountain, I cannot act unilaterally. Since Sword Master and the other elders are waiting outside, let’s make a decision together.” Tai Shu Reincarnation had long known that Tai Shu Yi and the others had been waiting outside for quite some time. If it weren’t for testing Zuo Dao, he would have let them in already.
He waved his hand to remove the Restriction formation in the hall and called for his disciples and servants before closing his eyes and ignoring everything else.
