The villagers of Junior Immortal Village couldn’t figure out how Fang Bai managed to lead them successfully out of Myriad Demons Mountain.

It’s hard for them to believe that Fang Bai fought a brutal battle to break through the heavy encirclement of the Demon Clan’s experts.

Because with Fang Bai’s cultivation level, he simply couldn’t contend with tens of thousands of Demon Clan experts.

Moreover, Fang Bai’s calm demeanor and unscathed appearance didn’t match someone who had just been through a fierce battle.

But if it wasn’t by breaking through, how did he manage to lead everyone out of Myriad Demons Mountain?

Could it be that a powerful immortal lent assistance?

This is somewhat possible, but to break out of an encirclement including two hundred Demon Emperors and myriad Demon Clan experts, perhaps only an Immortal Emperor realm expert could achieve it?

Then a question arises, why would an Immortal Emperor lend aid to Fang Bai?

The villagers of Junior Immortal Village pondered endlessly but couldn’t come up with an answer, so they decided not to dwell on it anymore.

No matter what, Fang Bai helped them escape a calamity, and it’s an unimaginable miracle—they were full of gratitude toward Fang Bai.

"Uncle, is it true that drinking the water from your Immortal Ring’s space pool can really raise my father’s realm by a small level?"

Fen Yue Fairy, now full of curiosity and gratitude toward her father’s sworn brother, felt he always radiated mystery despite his young age, and she couldn’t see through him.

Fen Yue Fairy knew her father had extensive connections and many friends, but before Fang Bai appeared, she had never heard her father mention such a sworn brother.

This Fang Bai, whose immortal age appears not far beyond her own, possesses such terrifying combat power that he can defeat immortals two realms higher than him. The title "Wushuang Immortal King" suits him perfectly, overshadowing her own brilliance as a heavenly prodigy.

At this moment, Fen Yue Fairy already developed a bit of admiration for Fang Bai, her eyes now filled with little stars when she looked at him.

Fang Bai said with a smile, "The water in that pool is the Water of Life, containing powerful life force. After consuming it, it has a transformative effect on an immortal’s physique. As long as one’s potential isn’t too poor, a single drop can raise a realm by one small level."

"If that’s true, it would be wonderful!"

Fen Yue Fairy clenched her pink fists excitedly and said, "Father’s cultivation level has been stuck at the initial stage of the Immortal Emperor realm for hundreds of years. Although he has high potential, he’s too lazy and slack in cultivation, so he hasn’t advanced further. If Father advances, wouldn’t he be in the mid-stage of the Immortal Emperor realm?"

Fang Bai nodded and said with a smile, "Your father is indeed too lazy; otherwise, with his innate potential, his current cultivation level might have already reached the Immortal Emperor... Fen Yue, you must urge your father diligently!"

Fen Yue Fairy knew her father’s potential was high, but she didn’t know just how high. Hearing Fang Bai’s words left her jaw dropped in amazement; stammering, she said, "Immortal... Immortal Emperor? Uncle, is this true? Is my father really that formidable?"

Fang Bai replied, "He’s far more formidable than you imagine!"

Regarding the Variable Immortal Emperor, Fang Bai feels truly frustrated by his lack of progress; if he invested effort in cultivation, perhaps upon Fang Bai’s return to the Immortal Realm after his rebirth, he would have an extra Immortal Emperor to support him.

Almost all immortals in the Immortal Realm strive to attain the Immortal Emperor status as their life’s goal and work diligently towards it, while the Variable Immortal Emperor is unusual in his disinterest in cultivation—a source of frustration for Fang Bai in his past life.

Having said that, thanks to the Variable Immortal Emperor being endowed with four Innate Spiritual Roots and having rare potential through the ages, despite his laziness, he still managed to reach the Immortal Emperor status, which is incomparable to ordinary immortals.

Fen Yue thought she must inquire clarity from her father once he emerged from Fang Bai’s Space Immortal Ring after cultivation. If her father is indeed as formidable as Fang Bai suggests, she’ll ensure to earnestly urge him to cultivate in the future.

The thought of her father potentially ascending to become an Immortal Emperor left Fen Yue excited, and Junior Immortal Village would no longer lack cultivation resources with such protection. At that time, with an Immortal Emperor’s guidance and sufficient resources, the village’s immortals’ cultivation levels would quickly elevate, and their overall strength would undergo a substantial transformation.

The immortals used auspicious clouds or Immortal Artifacts to fly in the direction of Junior Immortal Village, covering a journey of hundreds of thousands of miles in just a few days.

White Crane Immortal Emperor was quite curious about how Fang Bai led them out of Myriad Demons Mountain, but since Fang Bai didn’t elaborate, he also felt awkward asking. He thought to wait until they returned to Junior Immortal Village and the village chief finished cultivating; knowing the chief’s character, he’d definitely inquire fully with Fang Bai, and since they’re sworn brothers, Fang Bai shouldn’t conceal it, thereby revealing the truth to White Crane Immortal Emperor.

More than a hundred immortals returned to Junior Immortal Village and reunited with several tens of villagers who had been anxiously awaiting news. They warmly embraced each other, overwhelmed with emotion, thankful that not a single villager fell.

"The fault is mine; if I hadn’t been so willful to enter Myriad Demons Mountain in search of cultivation resources, none of this would have happened..."

Fen Yue Fairy admitted her error in front of all the villagers, thinking how fortunate it was that no villagers fell this time; if otherwise, she’d feel deeply guilty, unsure of how to face them.

As for her father, the village chief, being reluctant to punish her; not punishing her might build resentment among the villagers, placing her father in a difficult position.

Luckily, Fang Bai saved all the villagers from Junior Immortal Village, sparing her father from being caught in a dilemma.

Thinking of this, Fen Yue felt even more grateful toward Fang Bai.

"Fen Yue, don’t blame yourself too harshly! Which immortal in the Immortal Realm hasn’t acted willfully or done reckless things? Like me, for instance, I’ve done my fair share of willful things and stirred up quite a bit of trouble!"

As the sworn brother of the Variable Immortal Emperor and "uncle" to Fen Yue, Fang Bai could easily stand in the role of an elder, chastising Fen Yue to prevent her from repeating the same mistakes in the future.

But Fang Bai chose not to do so.

First, Fang Bai is very protective; Fen Yue, being the daughter of the Variable Immortal Emperor and his niece, was beyond reproach for Fang Bai.

Secondly, in Fang Bai’s view, as long as immortals adventure out, they’ll inevitably encounter various risks. The villagers of Junior Immortal Village faced the Demon Clan’s assault at Myriad Demons Mountain because it was meant to happen, not because of Fen Yue’s fault.

Life and death among immortals are quite common in the Immortal Realm, and unless the act is malicious, there’s no need to cause a stir and attribute blame to a particular immortal.

As for the treacherous ambush by eight supreme Immortal Emperors a millennium ago to destroy Fang Bai’s Emperor Palace—an act of malicious betrayal by friends and a ruthless massacre—for this, Fang Bai cannot forgive and vows vengeance.
