"Big Brother is Big Brother after all. It's fine if you're here with me, but you can't be so rude outside.

Several hundred years ago, Big Brother went to the Black Water Mountain Range of Heilu Region and wiped out the Black Water League, a bandit group that had been entrenched there for many years. Father was so happy that he handed over the Offering Hall to him.

It's just a Sacrificial Hall, it won't affect anything. It's just that Imperial Father's thoughts have become more and more unfathomable these past few years, and even I can't see through him. "Shi Pokong shook his head and said slowly.

"Third Brother, you don't have to worry. I haven't been out for nothing this time." Shi Chuankong's complexion looked a little better. He then said with a smile.

With that said, he raised his hand, and a silver lute appeared in his hand with a flash of silver light.

"This is the Luo Zha's Pipa?" Shi Pokong's eyes lit up when he saw the silver pipa.

"That's it!"

Shi Chuankong smiled and passed the Luozha Pipa to Shi Pokong.

"Thirteenth Brother, what are you doing?" Shi Pokong was stunned.

"If Big Brother can win Imperial Father's favor, so can we!

The Luozha Pipa is one of our clan's most valuable treasures. It was borrowed by someone in the past, and now it has been recovered. If you present this treasure tomorrow, Father Emperor will definitely be happy, and he will definitely reward you greatly. "Shi Chuankong laughed.

Shi Pokong's eyes flickered as he looked at the Luozha Pipa. After a moment, he firmly pushed it away and shook his head with a smile, "Thirteenth Brother, this Luozha Pipa was found by you after untold hardships. Naturally, you should hand it over to Imperial Father. No matter how useless I am as an elder brother, I won't use my younger brother's things to exchange for merits."

"Third Brother!

What's mine is yours. Don't be too stubborn. What's the use of me giving this Luozha Pipa to my father? It's just a waste. "Shi Chuankong frowned and said.

"Thirteenth Brother, Imperial Father often mentioned you during the years you were away. In my opinion, he still values you.

Furthermore, you're also one of the princes. You don't have to give up the right to inherit the throne so early. "Shi Pokong said with a smile.

"Third Brother, what do you mean by that?

I went to the True Immortal Realm to look for Luo Zha and the Pipa because of you.

As for the position of Holy Master, I've never thought about it, and I feel that I don't have that kind of tolerance. "Shi Chuankong cried out involuntarily.

"Don't look down on yourself, Thirteenth Brother. Your management of the Vast Origin House has been very effective, and Father is very pleased with you.

When it comes to the art of governing a country, although you are still somewhat lacking, your comprehension is extraordinary. If Imperial Father wants to train you, don't refuse.

After all, you and I don't need to be separated from each other. I'm happy that you're able to receive my acknowledgement. "Shi Pokong shook his head.

"Third Brother, did something happen?" Shi Chuankong asked after a moment of silence.

"No, don't think too much about it. It's just that I've recently gained some enlightenment. Even though the position of Saint Master is important, there's no need to be too attached to it. Just leave it to fate." Shi Pokong smiled calmly.

Shi Chuankong's face was filled with surprise when he heard this.

Even though Shi Pokong had a mild personality, he had expressed his yearning for the position of Holy Master in the past, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that this was his lifelong dream.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. It's just that my cultivation base has improved recently and my state of mind has undergone some changes. I've also comprehended some things," Shi Pokong said with a faint smile.

"Third Brother, you've already broken through the bottleneck to the Golden Immortal Realm?" Shi Chuankong was both surprised and delighted when he heard this.

"Not yet. The Golden Immortal Realm isn't something to be underestimated. How can it be casually broken through? I've only gained some slight comprehension." Shi Pokong shook his head.

The happiness on Shi Chuankong's face didn't reduce when he heard this.

He knew his Third Brother's natural talent in cultivation better than anyone else. Since Third Brother had gained some comprehension, then Third Brother probably wasn't far from breaking through.

"Thirteenth Brother, I'll still try my best to strive for the position of Saint Master. But don't think about how to help me, and don't take any risks for this. If anything were to happen, then how would I explain it to Mother in the afterlife?" Shi Pokong sighed as he gazed at Shi Chuankong.

"Mother …" Shi Chuankong went silent when he heard this.

"Your safe return is a joyous occasion. Let's not talk about all of this." Shi Pokong roared with laughter and changed the topic.

Shi Chuankong took a deep breath while a smile appeared on his face once more.

"What have you experienced in the outside world in these past few years? Tell me in detail." Shi Pokong intentionally changed the topic, and he changed the topic and asked about something else.

Shi Chuankong pondered for a moment and recounted everything he had encountered in the True Immortal World in detail.

He searched for the ruins of the Truth Sect, was hunted by the Rat Immortal, fell into the Dust World, and finally escaped. He wandered in the Shihuan Mountain Range and then went all the way to Yang Ye City.

In order not to worry Shi Pokong, he made up the details of his near-death experience.

Even so, Shi Pokong's expression changed again and again, and the blame in his eyes became more and more serious.

"… Later, we joined forces to kill Reverend Reflecting Bone and entered the Night Sun Realm. Then, we arrived at Yang Ye City safely." Shi Chuankong spoke with fervor and assurance.

He didn't know how many dangers he had encountered along the way and how many times he was on the verge of death. Now that he was sitting in the hall and narrating his story, it was as if he was narrating a story from a long time ago.

"I didn't expect that you would encounter so many things in the True Immortal World and even wandered into the legendary Dust World.

Although these experiences were wonderful, they were too dangerous. Thirteenth Brother, you are a prince with a golden body. In the future, you must not put yourself in danger like this. "Shi Pokong sighed with emotion and then said with a serious expression.

"I understand, Third Brother. Don't worry." Shi Chuankong's expression became slightly gloomy as he nodded.

Although there were many dangers along the way, they were exciting memories when he recalled them.

As a prince, he grew up under the protection of the people around him. He didn't know if he would have the chance to experience such exciting adventures again in the future.

"That Li Fei Yu's strength has reached such a level. Moreover, he has cultivated the Law of Time. He is a rare talent.

From what you said, it seems that he values friendship very much. Thirteenth Brother, you must continue to maintain the friendship between you two. It might be of great use in the future. "Shi Pokong said as he paced back and forth.

"Brother Li and I have experienced life and death together. He is a trustworthy friend.

By the way, Third Brother, how do you plan to deal with the Black Ferret King?

That day, in order to escape, I had to feign civility with him. Did this cause any trouble for you? "Shi Chuankong thought of something and asked.

The Ten Troubles King and the Demon Dynasty were enemies. If the other princes obtained the evidence of them colluding with the Black Ferret King, it would be quite troublesome.

"Of course not. It is a good thing to be able to form an alliance with a Grand Luo. Actually, the Black Ferret King has already sent someone to contact me. However, this person is quite cunning. I still can't see through his intentions." Shi Pokong's eyes flickered as he said.

"It's good that he didn't cause you any trouble." Shi Chuankong heaved a sigh of relief.

"Now that you have successfully passed the Evil Decay, you should cultivate well in the next few days and consolidate your realm. I have already arranged for you to enter the Moon God's Altar. You can enter after seven days. Try to advance to the Taiyi Realm before father comes out of seclusion." Shi Pokong then changed the topic and said solemnly.

"Father is in seclusion again?" Shi Chuankong was startled as he asked.

"Yes.

Recently, father has been in seclusion more and more frequently. I wonder what kind of secret technique he is cultivating. "Shi Pokong looked out of the hall with a flash of light in his eyes.

"Oh, that's strange." Shi Chuankong frowned slightly.

"We don't have to worry about father.

Thirteenth Brother, you have been rushing for the past few days. It must be tiring. Go and have a good rest. "Shi Pokong smiled and said.

Shi Chuankong stood up when he heard this. However, he didn't take a step forward. He looked at the Luozha Pipa beside him and said, "Third Brother, this Luozha Pipa …"

"I have already said that since you have found this item, you should naturally present it to father.

According to what you said earlier, father already knows that you have found this Luozha Pipa. If I were to present it to him, he would be unhappy. "Shi Pokong said firmly.

Shi Chuankong was silent for a moment. He sighed and waved his hand to keep the Luozha Pipa. He then stood up and walked towards the inner hall.

Shi Pokong smiled as he watched Shi Chuankong leave. However, he didn't leave and sat quietly in the hall.

After a moment, a shadow on the ground in front of him thickened and a snake-shaped shadow emerged. It expanded rapidly and turned into a figure in a purple robe. It was the Feminine Youth from before.

This figure didn't seem to be his real body. It seemed to be an avatar that didn't emit any aura.

"Your Highness, I have arranged for Fellow Li to stay in the Long Pavilion Garden." The Feminine Youth knelt on one knee and reported.

"Hmm … Although this person is a friend of Thirteenth Brother, he is from the Immortal Realm after all. His purpose is unclear. You must closely monitor his movements.

This person is very powerful. You must be careful not to be discovered by him. "Shi Pokong nodded and ordered.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

The effeminate-looking young man replied, and then his figure flickered as he transformed into a black shadow once more and vanished into the ground.

Shi Pokong stood in the hall for a moment before he turned around and walked towards the inner hall.

…

There was a courtyard in the depths of the Third Prince's Mansion. There were pavilions, gardens, and flowing water. It was more exquisite than many of the gardens in the Immortal Realm.

This was the residence that Shi Pokong had prepared for Han Li. The entire courtyard was surrounded by a special restriction that constantly injected a large amount of spiritual energy into the courtyard. This caused the spiritual energy in this place to be extremely rich.

In a room in the depths of the courtyard, Han Li sat with his legs crossed and formed a hand seal with both hands.

Rays of colorful light shot out from his hands and landed in various parts of the room, activating four to five layers of restriction.

Han Li's expression relaxed. He moved his finger and a silver door appeared in front of him.

In a flash, he flew into the light door and entered the Space of the Flower Branch.

After entering the flower branch space, Han Li was truly able to relax.

He entered the pavilion and first checked the Weeping Soul Beast's condition. There wasn't much change compared to before.

Han Li sighed inwardly. There was nothing he could do about the Weeping Soul Beast's body. He could only rely on the Great Priest now. He hoped that Shi Pokong could invite the Great Priest to help him.

He frowned slightly when he thought of this.

Judging from the situation in Yang Ye City, the current situation in Yang Ye City was very complicated. There was a lot of undercurrents among the princes. If he was not careful, he could be swallowed by them.

Although he and Shi Chuankong had a good relationship now, he didn't want to be too deeply involved in this matter. However, he had already killed several trusted aides of the princes while escorting Shi Chuankong. It wouldn't be easy for him to completely stay out of this matter.
