The Comeback of the Cannon-Fodder Supporting Actress

Chapter 827: Chapter 808: Strongest Fox Spirit 8

Yuanshi Tianzun has been quite conflicted lately.

Tongtian Sect Leader has asked him to Biyou Palace more times than he can count, and each time he refused, he felt bad about it.

After all, that’s his younger brother, and constantly turning him down and making him upset is not what he wants to see.

What could he do?

He truly doesn’t want to go to Biyou Palace because the little demons there are too much for his eyes.

But this time, Tongtian Sect Leader has made such a big change. For someone who was used to being free-spirited, to start disciplining his disciples, as the elder brother, he could no longer disregard his younger brother’s face.

But Yuanshi Tianzun was still afraid of seeing something unpleasant at Biyou Palace.

It made him feel quite awkward.

So, Yuanshi Tianzun decided to invite Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad to go along with him.

If there’s anything unpleasant, at least he’d have his elder brother to witness it with him.

On the day of the appointment, Yuanshi Tianzun began to prepare.

He changed into a white robe, tied up his usually loose hair, and took two young boys to Biyou Palace.

Along the way, Yuanshi Tianzun met Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad.

The two exchanged smiles and went together.

Upon reaching the skies over the East Sea, they soon saw Penglai Island, descended onto an auspicious cloud, and entered the island’s protection array.

Once inside, they felt that Biyou Palace seemed a bit different.

It seemed much tidier.

After walking a few steps, they suddenly heard loud noises, and then saw dozens of little demons wearing red robes, holding colorful flowers, jumping and shouting around them: ”Welcome, welcome, warmly welcome the two honored Master-Uncles to Biyou Palace...”

Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad was visibly startled.

He practiced the Dao of Non-Emotion, and usually had no expression, but now he couldn’t help but frown.

Yuanshi Tianzun was even more frightened.

Did something happen to Tongtian Sect Leader?

What kind of shock did he go through?

Just as he was about to ask, Duobao Daoist came over with a group of junior brothers and sisters: ”Greetings, Master-Uncles.”

Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad nodded: ”Hmm.”

In front of the juniors, Yuanshi Tianzun suppressed a lot of his discontent.

He was just wondering where Tongtian Sect Leader was when he heard Duobao Daoist say with a smile: ”Master has been waiting for you two for a long time. Since early morning, he ordered us to prepare everything, clean the island thoroughly, plant new paths, build new houses and dining halls, all to make your visit more comfortable. We have genuinely prepared everything well, waiting respectfully here. Master misses you both so much, he’s dying to greet you at the island’s edge...”

Yuanshi Tianzun was completely surprised.

When did Duobao become so eloquent?

This child used to be quite reserved and didn’t talk much.

”Alright, lead the way.”

Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad found it a bit noisy and nodded for Duobao to lead.

Duobao was relieved, thinking that the little fox was indeed right, everyone loves to hear compliments, even Saints. Look, after some flattery, the Master-Uncles’ expressions softened.

If Anning were here, she’d surely ask Duobao how he could tell the Saints were pleased.

Clearly, they still looked as expressionless as ever.

Yuanshi Tianzun and Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad walked a bit further and saw Tongtian Sect Leader standing under a cluster of flowers and trees with a few disciples, waiting to welcome them.

Finally seeing his troublesome younger brother, Yuanshi Tianzun heaved a sigh of relief.

Tongtian Sect Leader stepped forward: ”Big Brother, Second Brother, you’re finally here, please sit.”

Tongtian Sect Leader had a smile on his face, somewhat proudly. He said to Golden Spirit Saint Mother: ”Go brew some tea.”

Golden Spirit Saint Mother complied, quickly bringing over three cups of tea.

The cups were white jade, the tea floral, the tea soup clear, with flowers blossoming inside, looking exceptionally beautiful.

Yuanshi Tianzun, smelling the fragrance of the tea, couldn’t help but praise it, and after a sip, found it very soothing.

Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad remarked: ”Tea?”

Tongtian Sect Leader explained: ”These are little creations made by the younger ones, using various spiritual teas and plants, prepared to be brewed with boiling water. It tastes quite good.”

Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad tried it and indeed found it quite pleasant, especially as it matched well with his Taoist skills.

He nodded in praise.

Tongtian Sect Leader became even more smug.

”Serve some snacks.”

Then, various exquisite snacks filled the table.

The snacks were particularly delicate, small enough to be eaten in one bite.

Yuanshi Tianzun took a piece to taste, the sweetness filling his mouth, making him happy, so he took another piece.

Tongtian Sect Leader also liked them, eating several pieces: ”This is a trick devised by a little fox that my fourth brother just recruited, and it seems quite good now.”

Seeing the two eating happily, Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad joined in.

The three of them quickly finished the table of snacks.

Clearly aiming to show off, Tongtian Sect Leader, after the snacks, asked for wine and dishes.

Osmanthus wine, chrysanthemum wine, fruit wine, several vats were brought out, along with an array of delicious dishes.

Even though The Three Pure Ones are Saints.

They had never seen so many dishes before. Catching sight of these colorful and aromatic dishes, they felt a sense of novelty and couldn’t help trying several.

Tongtian Sect Leader was entertaining his two elder brothers.

Anning, on the other hand, was barbecuing with some little demons.

They weren’t grilling meat, but rather things like gluten and tofu with various vegetables.

While the three on that side ate quietly, this side was a hive of activity.

After finishing the meal, Tongtian Sect Leader said to Yuanshi Tianzun: ”Second Brother, I’ve set up a school here where the kids can interact, maybe you could let my nephews come over when they have free time to join us.”

Having eaten and drunk, Yuanshi Tianzun naturally wouldn’t refuse. ”Sure.”

He agreed.

Tongtian Sect Leader was very cheerful: ”I’ll have Duobao send invitations to the nephews later, inviting them over. We three religions are essentially one family, the younger ones below should not become estranged but rather interact more. The more interaction, the more progress and camaraderie they will have.”

As a result, Duobao quickly sent out invitations to the Chan Sect disciples.

Soon, people like Guang Chengzi, Yun Zhongzi, Ju Liusun, and others started arriving.

As they arrived, disciples from Jie Sect who didn’t live on the island, like Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiaos, also showed up.

The whole island began to bustle with activity, and with sports arenas and dueling platforms, it was lively everywhere.

After eating and drinking their fill, they began to enter duels or play games, with hardly anyone being idle.

Anning brought out more wine for everyone, and these immortals were soon drunk.

Once people get drunk, they naturally let go more.

Usually solemn Chan Sect disciples became lively too, pulling Jie Sect disciples into friendly embraces, looking particularly close.

Anning watched from the side, smiling.

In the Divine Enthronement, Shen Gongbao tricked Jie Sect disciples, saying how Chan Sect members cursed them, attacking and killing their senior brothers, leading to many of the straightforward Jie Sect disciples falling for it.

From Anning’s perspective, this was because the two sects didn’t interact and lacked communication.

They hardly ever met or knew each other, so they easily believed whatever Shen Gongbao said.

Additionally, Jie Sect disciples, like Tongtian Sect Leader, were inherently very proud.

They wouldn’t seek confirmation from Chan Sect, asking if they really cursed them. Naturally, the misunderstandings grew larger.

But if Anning’s approach was followed, constantly inviting Chan Sect disciples over to interact, after one year or two, or hundreds to thousands of years of exchange, who wouldn’t be familiar with each other? Just by the way someone squats, you’d know what they’re up to.

Being so familiar, upon meeting on the battlefield, they wouldn’t help but ask.

No matter how proud the Jie Sect disciples are, seeing the Chan Sect disciples who seem like brothers wouldn’t they shout: ”Hey, come on, you regularly eat and drink my stuff, but behind my back, you curse me? Aren’t we moving as one family, why harm my brothers like that?”

The Chan Sect person over there would certainly respond: ”When did I curse you, if you offended me, I’d curse you to your face, why would I do it behind your back?”

So, wouldn’t this clear up the misunderstanding?
