Chapter 199 The Ancestor of the Wood Spirit Palace Master
"Fellow Daoist Song!"
Gu Yan cupped her hands in a respectful gesture towards Song Qi, who quickly returned the gesture.
Just then, a pink streak shot out from the Wood Spirit Palace and landed next to Song Qi.
The person who arrived was Lu Yan. Upon seeing Gu Yan, Lu Yan's eyes blazed with fury, a testament to the intense hatred that often ensnares enemies. The memory of her own humiliating state fueled her anger. She held out her hand, and a red lotus flower bloomed in her palm. Holding the lotus aloft, she glared angrily at Gu Yan.
"Well, you shameless bastard, you actually dare to come here. I'm going to teach you a lesson today."
"Guards! Seize this little slut!"
Lu Yan gave orders to the disciples around her.
"Who dares?" Song Qi roared, his aura shaking the surrounding area.
The disciples of the Wood Spirit Palace around them were startled and stood frozen in place.
"Senior brother, are you determined to protect this little bitch?" Lu Yan was furious.
"Junior sister, you are being extremely rude. Fairy Daiyu is, after all, a disciple of the Palace Master of Heartless Palace. We should treat her with the utmost respect," Song Qi said coldly.
"You're clearly infatuated with her face." Lu Yan blushed and excitedly prepared to fight her senior brother, Song Qi.
Song Qi was also annoyed by Lu Yan, his junior sister who wanted to disturb his good time. Fairy Lin had come to visit him in person, and if Lu Yan was so unreasonable and annoyed him, what would happen if she left? This Lu Yan was just too spoiled by him.
Her master indulged her, and so did he. She had become completely lawless, so today he would teach her a lesson.
These two senior brothers, one a Golden Immortal and the other merely a True Immortal, naturally had no suspense in their fight.
Lu Yan was so arrogant only because Song Qi always gave in to her. When she saw Song Qi's eyes change and become cold and seemed to have murderous intent, she was already afraid.
But under the watchful eyes of everyone, she didn't want to show weakness. She had no choice but to steel herself and unleash the precious lotus in her hand. The red lotus split into hundreds of blossoms, the flames illuminating all directions.
Song Qi snorted contemptuously, and with a wave of his hand, purple light surged, and the fire lotus disappeared completely. Lu Yan was knocked away by a strong force, staggering back several steps and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Those around them were in disbelief. My God, Uncle Song actually hit Uncle Lu, and even made Uncle Lu vomit blood! This... this...
Everyone knows how much Song Qi used to dote on Lu Yan; the two were like siblings. But now Song Qi has actually beaten Lu Yan until she vomits blood—this is truly…
All eyes fell on the graceful Gu Yan; she was truly a femme fatale!
Gu Yan: "..."
Why are you looking at him? What business is it of his?
"Senior brother, you, you..."
Coughing up blood, Lu Yan stared at Song Qi, her eyes filled with disbelief and sorrow. She and Song Qi were as close as siblings, and now he was treating her so cruelly for a woman he had only met twice. She was heartbroken and hated Gu Yan intensely.
That shameless vixen!!!
"Stop making trouble, or don't blame me for being impolite!" Song Qi said coldly.
"I'd like to see how impolite you are. If you have the guts, kill me!" In her anger, Lu Yan pointed her finger at the red lotus, which burst forth with dazzling light. Her entire body surged with immortal power, and she looked as if she was about to fight her senior brother to the death.
Gu Yan quickly said, "Don't hit me! Let's talk this out."
His silence only fueled Lu Yan's anger. Originally, Lu Yan wanted to fight Song Qi to the death, but now, looking at Gu Yan, her eyes were filled with hatred.
"Go to hell!"
The red lotus in Lu Yan's hand once again burst forth with dazzling light. Song Qi stood in front of Gu Yan, and just as the two senior and junior siblings were about to fight again, a terrifying pressure descended.
The oppressive aura seemed capable of shaking heaven and earth, and everyone's faces turned pale. Song Qi and Lu Yan stopped fighting at the same time. Gu Yan looked up at the sky and saw a bright blue glow in the sky. Amidst the surging emerald light, an incomparably magnificent Dharma image appeared on the sky. The Dharma image was extremely solemn and tens of thousands of feet tall, looking down at everyone below.
Celestial light rained down like rain, heavenly flowers fell in disarray, and auspicious clouds enveloped the area.
More than a dozen long rainbows flew out from the Wood Spirit Palace, transforming into Great Luo Golden Immortals shrouded in celestial light.
Upon seeing this, Song Qi, Lu Yan, and the other disciples of the Wood Spirit Hall were greatly alarmed and hurriedly bowed respectfully towards the sky:
"Greetings, Master!"
Gu Yan was astonished. Ancestor? The Lord of the Wood Spirit Palace?
Before the enormous and solemn image of the Buddha was an old man in a green robe. The old man had white hair and a youthful face. He held a whisk and had a kind face with a faint smile. With a gentle sweep of the whisk, a fragrant breeze blew by, and flowers bloomed everywhere.
The Temple Master of the Wood Spirit Palace looked past everyone and landed on Gu Yan. Gu Yan felt an immense pressure as he looked at him. What was going on? How could a Celestial King appear so easily? Did he already know he was here to do something bad? He quickly clasped his hands in a respectful greeting:
"Lin Daiyu of the Palace of Heartless Love greets Senior!"
The Lord of the Wood Spirit Palace chuckled, the Dharma Image behind him vanished, and he instantly appeared before Gu Yan:
"Young friend, my ancestor wishes to see you."
Gu Yan: "...??"
Ancestor?
The Wood Spirit Palace Master's Ancestor? The Wood Spirit Palace Master has an ancestor? Although he only knew Lu Yan and Song Qi, two disciples of the Wood Spirit Palace, he had been staying in the Heartless Palace for several months and had inquired about many things concerning the Immortal Alliance. He remembered that the Wood Spirit Palace only had one Immortal King, so the Wood Spirit Palace Master actually had an ancestor? And what was that ancestor's cultivation level?
Does he still want to see me?
This...this...
Gu Yan was surprised, and the disciples of the Wood Spirit Hall around her were equally shocked.
Ancestors? There are ancestors too?
Song Qi and Lu Yan were also shocked. Their master's ancestor?
Who is it?
I've never heard Master mention this before!
Gu Yan suddenly felt that the Wood Spirit Palace was a deep and dangerous place, and he had an urge to run away immediately. But could he run away? In front of a Celestial King, could a True Immortal like him escape?
The Wood Spirit Palace Master was still smiling when Gu Yan forced herself to say:
"May I ask what business the venerable ancestor has with this junior?"
You'll see when you get there.
The Lord of the Wood Spirit Palace laughed and flicked his whisk. Azure light surged beneath his feet, enveloping him and Gu Yan, who vanished from the spot. Lu Yan, Song Qi, and the others were left looking at each other, completely bewildered.

Two figures appeared in the deserted corridor: a veiled girl in white and an old man in a green robe.
Gu Yan looked around and saw that the place was very spacious. On both sides, there were curtains with floral patterns hanging down, and at the end was a lattice door covered with white gauze with landscape paintings on it.
The Lord of the Wood Spirit Palace walked forward. When he reached the door, the lattice door opened automatically to both sides, and a refreshing fragrance and rich immortal energy poured out from inside, revealing a hidden world within.
The Lord of the Wood Spirit Palace stepped into the secret realm, with Gu Yan following closely behind.
