After witnessing the shameless tactics of Dao Ancestor Hongjun, Xu Fang worried that Penglai Island and Fangzhang Island would also be seized by Dao Ancestor Hongjun and become sacrifices for the Eastern Prince. Thus, he was extremely anxious, accelerating with all his might, hoping to reach Yingzhou Island as quickly as possible.
The Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue saw Xu Fang in a state of great haste and said nothing more, following closely behind him.
Soon, a group of one person, one phoenix, and one dragon left the Primordial Era world and entered the Eastern Sea.
Standing on the surface of the Eastern Sea and looking at the scenery before them, Ao Xue couldn't help but pout and start crying.
"Senior, did I do something wrong? Are you sending me back to the Eastern Sea Dragon Palace so urgently?"
Didn't they agree to visit senior's home? Why were they now on the Eastern Sea?
Ao Xue was terrified. Was senior going to return her to her father, King Ao Guang!
"Senior, please don't do this, I don't want to go back like this!"
Ao Xue cried out in fear.
She didn't want her treasure-hunting journey to end so vaguely, returning to the Dragon Palace to live the same monotonous life as a dragon princess day after day.
So, she carefully recalled if she had done anything wrong recently that might have angered senior.
Hearing Ao Xue's words, the Golden-winged Great Peng, whose face was usually frivolous, also showed a hint of panic.
"Senior, what did Xiao Xue do wrong that you want to send her home like this?"
The Golden-winged Great Peng naturally did not want to see Ao Xue leave. Their relationship was heating up, with the possibility of further development.
If they were to part ways so abruptly now, wouldn't all their previous efforts be in vain?
Therefore, the Golden-winged Great Peng, eager to protect his beloved, stepped forward directly.
"Senior, if you think Xiao Xue has done something wrong, I can accept the punishment in her place. Please spare her this once!"
Looking at the tearful Ao Xue and the Golden-winged Great Peng who looked like he was ready to sacrifice himself righteously, Xu Fang could only give a wry smile.
"When did I say I was sending her away? I said I was going to take you to my place to play. If dragons can live in the Eastern Sea, can't I, Xu Fang, also live here?"
Xu Fang shook his head. So, the Eastern Sea was not acceptable? As soon as they returned to the Eastern Sea, it triggered the scenario of sending Ao Xue home?
The Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue were immediately relieved.
"It's not sending me home, that's good. So, senior lives in the Eastern Sea!"
"Of course, I was so scared! By the way, senior mentioned before that he would settle down in the Eastern Sea, how could we forget?"
The Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue also remembered now.
The day Xu Fang met the Eastern Sea Dragon King, he had indeed said that he would settle down in the Eastern Sea and be good neighbors with the dragon clan.
They had initially thought it was just a polite remark, but now it seemed senior genuinely had this intention, and his home had always been in the Eastern Sea.
"So, senior is also a creature of the Eastern Sea, and indeed a natural good neighbor to our dragon clan!"
Ao Xue was extremely excited, thrilled to have such a powerful neighbor like the dragon clan.
Immediately, she became curious.
"There are countless immortal islands in the Eastern Sea, I wonder where senior's home is located?"
"Yes, senior, why don't you tell us and satisfy our curiosity?"
The Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue quickly relaxed their brows, curious about where Xu Fang lived.
Xu Fang looked at the Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue, who were now acting in unison, and frowned.
He mused to himself, these two lovebirds, constantly flaunting their affection in front of a single senior like himself, should he just send Ao Xue away?
Of course, Xu Fang was just complaining. He really couldn't bring himself to be the one to break up a couple.
Looking at the curious faces of the Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue, Xu Fang smiled slightly.
"If I tell you the name, you'll be shocked. You'll know soon enough."
Xu Fang kept them in suspense and then, guided by the Heaven Measuring Ruler, chose a direction.
Although Xu Fang could locate Yingzhou Island himself using the treasure map, to avoid appearing too bizarre, he sought help from the Heaven Measuring Ruler.
The Heaven Measuring Ruler quickly located Yingzhou Island through the positions of the dragon-head staff and the Kunlun Mirror, guiding Xu Fang towards Yingzhou Island.
The Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue did not get the answer they wanted. They followed Xu Fang, chattering incessantly.
"Being so mysterious, senior, you've had enough. Hurry up and tell us where your home is!"
"Exactly, exactly. You said the name would shock us. Could your home possibly be on Penglai Island?"
The Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue were slightly displeased. Senior was being so mysterious. Could it be that his hometown was on Penglai Island?
"How is that possible! Penglai Island has always been a legend. Even though senior has great fortune, he might not have this opportunity."
"Exactly, exactly. Our dragon clan has been rooted in the Eastern Sea for a long time. Even with the full power of the dragon clan, we haven't been able to find Penglai Island. How could senior...?"
Ao Xue was arguing with the Golden-winged Great Peng that it was impossible for Xu Fang to possess Penglai Island. As she spoke, her voice suddenly rose, trembling with shock.
It turned out that at this moment, Xu Fang had already brought the Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue to an immortal island. A huge stone tablet stood before them, with three enormous characters inscribed on it.
Yingzhou Island!
"Yingzhou Island!"
Ao Xue pointed at the characters on the stone tablet, her eyes filled with disbelief. So, senior's home was indeed this Penglai Immortal Island!
"How is this possible!"
The Golden-winged Great Peng also found it unbelievable. For so many years, how many great cultivators had searched tirelessly and failed to find this Penglai Immortal Island, and now this place was actually senior's home.
"Oh, right, how could I forget? Wasn't this Yingzhou Island the place where the Eastern Prince established the Immortal Court before?"
The Golden-winged Great Peng quickly remembered the declaration of the Eastern Prince to the world, using Yingzhou Island as the Daoist dojo of the Immortal Court and announcing it to all beings in the Primordial Era.
"So, senior is taking us to see this good Daoist friend of senior?"
Ao Xue quickly came back to her senses. In this case, it was more believable than senior's home being on Penglai Immortal Island.
Although senior had previously stated unequivocally that he had fallen out with that foolish Eastern Prince.
However, senior and the Eastern Prince had been extremely good Daoist friends before. How could it be so easy to cut ties?
Therefore, this time, it must be that while returning home, he was taking the opportunity to visit this former good Daoist friend.
Xu Fang listened to the explanations that the Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue came up with themselves, and he was immediately speechless.
These two little fellows, why were they more willing to accept that the Eastern Prince occupied Yingzhou Island than to accept that it was his home?
"I'm sorry, these three Penglai Islands are the place where I was born, and therefore, my home."
Xu Fang spoke directly, shattering the fantasies of the Golden-winged Great Peng and Ao Xue.
"This time, I'm here to collect rent from the Eastern Prince!"
