"Should we really do as you said and go to the immortal for help?" Paimon hesitated. "Although he has helped us a lot, I always feel that he has bad intentions."

Although the young master has helped them, there doesn't seem to be any trap from what has been said so far.

But the Traveler Team all felt that there must be a greater purpose behind him.

"Speaking of which," Paimon and Kong both looked at Su, "this situation is really troublesome. Should we... ask Xiao for help?"

Xiao said before that if you encounter trouble in Liyue, just call his name and ask him for help.

But before Su could answer, Paimeng himself rejected this plan.

If you want to know the reason...

Paimeng was worried that Xiao would believe the words of the Liyue Seven Stars more. After all, the one who died was Geo King, who was very important to Xiao!

What if they ask Xiao to come and help prove their innocence, but Xiao gets angry with them instead? Su has another piece of "evidence" in his backpack!

"Why don't we go look for the immortal in Jueyunjian first."

Paimon said to find out first and see what other immortals think of this matter before deciding whether to ask Xiao for help. After all, the closer you are to someone, the more you worry about them getting angry!

Kong and Su both felt that what Paimon said made sense, and they immediately set off for Jueyunjian.

Jueyunjian is indeed the residence of immortals. Not only is the scenery beautiful, but it is also very quiet. The Qianyan Army that has been chasing them is nowhere to be seen here.

Because it was so quiet, the traveling team encountered a five-colored fairy deer not long after they went up the mountain.

"Who are you and why do you trespass into Jueyunjian?" The five-colored deer with mysterious patterns on its body spoke in human language.

The team of travelers realized that this must be the immortal they were looking for. Kong took out the talisman with no taboos given by the young master and gave it to the Five-Colored Deer for inspection.

"A talisman with no taboos. I haven't seen this thing for many years. It turns out that there are still some in the hands of mortals." After checking and confirming that there was no problem with the talisman, the Five-Colored Deer said his name, "I am the Three-Eyed Five-Manifested Immortal, the True Lord Xue Yue Zhu Yang. Traveler, tell me your purpose."

Before Kong could explain the details, a team of Qianyan soldiers suddenly appeared.

"They are assassins! They actually escaped here!" The coach of Qianyan Army did not expect that these assassins would be so bold as to hide in the land of immortals.

A soldier from the Qianyan Army who was following them advised, "Boss, we have gone too deep into the Absolute Clouds."

This is the land of immortals!

Except for some desperate lunatics, no one in Liyue would disturb the quiet place of the immortals.

Hearing this, the coach hesitated for a while, but in the end he gritted his teeth -

"Catching the assassin is the top priority, and we have to do it even if it means biting the bullet! If the immortal blames me, please punish me alone!"

Seeing that the coach had already rushed out, the soldiers gritted their teeth and charged forward with spears in hand.

"Alas, disturbing the Qingjing." True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang turned away without looking at the smoke and dust rising from the environment, and only whispered to the traveler team, "Send them away, don't kill them."

Sora nodded, stomping one foot firmly to the ground.

In response to his thoughts, the rock element raised a circle of rock walls that pushed outward, directly pushing the Thousand Rock Army that was trying to capture them away and intercepting them outside the rock wall.

"It's the Immortal! The Immortal is angry!"

"This can't go on any longer!"

When the Qianyan Army saw the Five-Colored Deer, they thought it was a warning from the immortals not to disturb them, so they all retreated far away.

Finally, the Qianyan Army decided to send more people to guard all possible exits and arrest the prisoners on the spot after they were driven out.

"Then let's get back to the topic—" Seeing that the mortals who disturbed him had left, True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang continued the unfinished topic, "Traveler, tell me why you are here."

The Traveler Team's external spokesperson, Pai Mengfei, stepped forward and explained what happened at the Immortal Invitation Ceremony and the current situation of the Traveler Team. There was also an executive of the Fatui who had some unknown idea, and asked Master Xueyue Zhuyang to help prove their innocence to the Seven Stars.

“How can this be possible…” True Lord Xueyue Zhuyang murmured in disbelief, and suddenly shouted in anger, “How can this be possible!!!”

Paimon was so scared that he hid behind Kong and Su, and Kong was also on guard against the immortal's attack.

But Zhenjun Xueyue Zhuyang had no intention of attacking them.

Zhenjun Xueyue Zhuyang was full of disappointment with Qixing and suspicion about the assassination of Emperor Jun.

"The Seven Stars of Liyue are truly disappointing. How could someone assassinate the Emperor during the Immortal Invitation Ceremony? After the Emperor was assassinated, how could they push the suspicion onto the ordinary people who were watching the ceremony?!"

As someone who had followed the Emperor to fight in all directions and win the war against demons, and had protected Liyue till now, how could he doubt the Emperor's power?

True Lord Xue Yue Zhu Yang thought that Qi Xing was ridiculous and believed that there must be some hidden story behind this matter.

After Master Xueyue Zhuyang calmed down, he looked at the young men who had been avoiding the pursuit of the Qianyan Army and working hard to seek help from him, and he felt filled with pity.

So he spoke to comfort him: "Traveler, I already know that you have been wrongly accused of being assassins. I have already made a judgment on this matter."

"However, I am arbitrary and may make mistakes. I still need to inform the other immortals. Go, take your talisman with you and pass on the message for me. The True Lord of Water and Mountain Management and the True Lord of Cloud and Wind Management are often here, but you may not be lucky enough to meet them. Just go with the flow."

"There is also a demon-conquering great sage and a guardian yaksha. You can go to Wangshu Inn to look for their traces."

Master Xueyue Zhuyang thought about it and decided to go to Liyue Harbor to secretly investigate the situation. However, this matter was of great importance and he still had to let his colleagues know, so he simply asked the Traveler Team to help him convey the message to other immortals.

Seeing that Master Xueyue Zhuyang was so sensible, Paimeng finally let go of his worry.

Now they heard that the immortals who needed their help to notify also included Xiao, Paimeng, Kong and Su looked at each other.

They had been worried whether this incident would make Xiao angry or cause trouble for him, but now they are completely relieved.

Paimeng said happily: "Then let's invite Xiao over now~"

Upon hearing this, Master Xueyue Zhuyang, who was about to leave, stopped immediately, "Oh? Are you guys Xiao's acquaintances?"

"We're more than just acquaintances," Paimon flew proudly, "We're good friends!"

The three members of the Traveler Team said in unison: "Xiao——"

A moment later, a demon-slaying sage appeared on the grass in Jueyunjian.

Xiao looked at his friends who had not seen him recently and his colleagues who had not seen him for a long time not far away, and showed a puzzled expression.

It's like he doesn't understand how they got together when they shouldn't have any connection at all.

Paimeng repeated to Xiao the news he had told Master Xueyue Chiyang.

As expected, Xiao also doubted the authenticity of this news. "How could the Rock King suffer such a disaster? I...can't imagine it."

No matter how the times change, Xiao never thought that one day Liyue would lose its Emperor.

Xiao was very dissatisfied, "The Seven Stars who rule the human world have done so many wrong things."

He actually framed his friend and might have murdered the Emperor.

"That's right!" Paimeng, who had his friends' support, cheered up. "After this matter is resolved, Qixing must apologize to us personally!"

It actually caused them to be wanted and hunted.

"I'll help you notify Master Lishui Dieshan." Xiao knew that where his old colleague lived, there were many things that were not so friendly to mortals, so he offered to help.

"In that case, let's go look for the True Lord Liuyunjiefeng." Paimeng asked Xiao to circle the hill where the True Lord lived.

"You..." Before leaving, Xiao looked at Su and wanted to remind him to be careful.

But he knew the character of Master Liuyun, and although he didn't say it explicitly, Master Liuyun was indeed more gentle towards girls.

In the end, Xiao just said, "Call me as soon as possible next time you are in trouble."

There was no need to worry that he would not believe them.
