786: Chapter 231_5 786: Chapter 231_5 Linghu Gudu even wore a smile as he looked at the three and said, “What a coincidence, we meet again here.
This is our second encounter, yet I don’t even know your names.
I am called Linghu Gudu, may I ask how the three of you are addressed?”
The trio listened to Linghu Gudu’s words, and they inwardly complained.
You might think it’s fate, but we don’t see it that way.
After seeing you before, we even flew in a different direction.
And still, we run into you again—it’s just our rotten luck.
In their view, meeting these people was truly bad luck.
Although they didn’t seem like the type to kill indiscriminately, having such powerful figures around, in a cave no less, put them under a lot of pressure.
Upon hearing Linghu Gudu’s question, the female cultivator answered quickly, “My name is Chen Yexian, and these two are my senior brothers, Yu Gaoguan and Kou Shaohua.”
“Oh,” continued Linghu Gudu, “your cultivation bases appear to be quite impressive, all having reached Pill Fusion of the Perfect Completion Golden Core.
Which Immortal Sect do you come from?”
Chen Yexian promptly replied, “We hail from the Hanging Sky Island.” If someone else had inquired about her sect, she might have hesitated, as one never knows if they bear any ill will towards her sect.
But these people were clearly not from the South Ocean region, so she wasn’t worried about any enmity between her sect and them.
Nonetheless, she was starting to feel reluctant to stay here any longer.
She opened her mouth, about to propose vacating the cave voluntarily, but before she could speak, Linghu Gudu’s voice came through again.
“Hanging Sky Island?
You are people from Hanging Sky Island?
Ever since I arrived in the South Ocean region, I’ve heard many speak of Hanging Sky Island.
Your Hanging Sky Island is quite remarkable, suspended in midair.
I once wished to visit Hanging Sky Island, but regrettably, the Island does not permit outsiders to enter, so I had to leave.”
Linghu Gudu said this with a tone of disappointment, shaking his head.
He was genuinely interested in Hanging Sky Island; as soon as he learned of it upon arriving in the South Ocean, he made his way there as his first destination.
But upon his arrival, the people from Hanging Sky Island outright refused him entry to the Island.
Back then, before the Minor Era of Inversion of Heaven and Earth had begun, there were Earth Immortal Realm masters on Hanging Sky Island, so he certainly didn’t dare to force his way in and had no choice but to leave.
To his surprise, he was now meeting disciples from Hanging Sky Island.
Chen Yexian’s expression subtly changed upon hearing these words.
The other party had been denied entry to Hanging Sky Island?
She wondered if he would bear a grudge because of it.
As she worried, Linghu Gudu revealed a very friendly smile, almost as if he were looking at an old friend, and asked Chen Yexian, “Meeting like this again means we’re destined to be friends, don’t you think so?”
The three of them nodded in agreement, “Of course, naturally.”
Linghu Gudu’s face showed a satisfied smile, and he added, “In that case, as friends, there shouldn’t be a problem if you invite me to take a look at Hanging Sky Island, right?
Rest assured, I am merely interested in your Hanging Sky Island and want to see what an island suspended in midair looks like.
I have no other intentions.”
“Of course, if Dao Companion Linghu wishes to visit Hanging Sky Island, we would certainly not refuse.
Although it is true that Hanging Sky Island doesn’t easily allow outsiders on the Island, an invitation from friends is another matter.”
What else could the three of them say?
They naturally agreed.
And indeed, they weren’t lying; people from Hanging Sky Island can invite outsiders to the Island.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that any disciple from Hanging Sky Island can invite outsiders.
Ordinary disciples should forget about it, and even those considered genius disciples are not able to easily invite outsiders to the Island.
Only the most top-tier genius disciples, as well as elders from the sects, have the ability to invite outsiders to the Island.
Under normal circumstances, with the status the three of them held on Hanging Sky Island, inviting someone to the Island would naturally be out of the question.
However, during the Reversal Mini Epoch Period, all three of them existences at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection, and they held no low positions on the Island.
Collectively, they could certainly extend invitations without any problems.
“That would be excellent, excellent indeed,” Linghu Gudu said, seemingly highly interested in Hanging Sky Island.
He leaned in close to the man and asked curiously, “Speaking of which your Hanging Sky Island is among the top Immortal Sects in the entire South Ocean.
I remember that there are two at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection on your Island.
Did your sect not send any of these masters this time?”
It was odd for such a significant ruin so close to their location that they could send three individuals at the Ten Golden Core stage, yet not a single one at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection had come.
“Our Immortal Sect indeed did not send a master at the Ten Different Phenomena of Golden Elixir Great Perfection,” Chen Yexian shook her head, “As for why, we do not know.”
“Oh, is that so…
Well then…” Linghu Gudu was about to ask more when a whooshing sound suddenly came from outside the cave.
Immediately, everyone turned their heads to look toward the cave entrance.
The next moment, three more figures appeared at the entrance.
These three were all men, and the style of their clothes was clearly not that of the South Ocean.
After entering the cave, the three men paused as they saw eight people gathered inside, evidently not expecting to encounter so many inside the cave.
