Hard to Get the Hospitality

After returning to the Immortal Pillars, Teng Xiyuan's first priority was to establish good relationships with the others at the Immortal Pillars.

This time, he completely discarded his hypocritical mask and sincerely treated others, making friends with each and every one of them, not letting anyone slip by.

Because he understood that only by doing so, others would trust him enough to share any clues they might come across.

Therefore, even though he was currently situated at the Blue Immortal Pillar and hadn't found any immediate leads, he had indeed made quite a few genuine friends.

Half a month later, someone finally found him.

"Teng Xiyuan, my brother."

"Yuan Cheng, my brother."

"Teng, even though we've only known each other for a short time, it feels like we've been friends for ages. I already consider you a close friend, so I have something good I want to share with you. I'm wondering if you're interested," Teng Xiyuan's friend Yuan Cheng said.

"Oh?"

"What good news is it?" Teng Xiyuan quickly asked.

Yuan Cheng glanced around, making sure no one was paying attention, and then continued in a hushed voice, "Teng, do you know why the others from the Chaos Palace left?"

"Do you know?" Teng Xiyuan asked anxiously.

"Yes, I just received the news yesterday," Yuan Cheng said. "A good friend of mine informed me. It turns out they found another great place. It's filled with experts, immortal treasures are scattered everywhere, and there's even a super powerful being overseeing everything. Everyone else went there to seek refuge."

Upon hearing this, Teng Xiyuan's eyes lit up.

He thought to himself that his efforts hadn't been in vain.

At last, he had found a clue.

However, Teng Xiyuan remained calm and asked with curiosity, "What place is so amazing? Is it true?"

"I don't know if it's true or not. That's what my friend told me. But since so many people have already gone, I want to try my luck as well," Yuan Cheng said. "And considering your character, Teng, I decided to share this information with you. I'm wondering if you'd like to go with me to take a look?"

"Alright, since Yuan Cheng speaks so highly of this place, I'll go with you," Teng Xiyuan felt a surge of excitement.

A smile appeared on his face.

This time, he was certain that he would finally find the mischievous tentacle lurking behind the scenes.

When the others at the Chaos Palace learned that Teng Xiyuan was leaving, they all stood up and inquired.

"Teng, where are you going?"

"Yes, Teng."

"Is there something important?"

Their concerned voices reached his ears.

"Oh, don't worry, everyone. I just have some personal matters to attend to outside. I'll be back in a couple of days," Teng Xiyuan quickly replied with a courteous gesture.

"Personal matters? Are they troublesome, Teng?"

"Yes, do you need our help?"

"If you need assistance, just say the word. We can all go and help you."

"Teng, you've always been honest and kind to us. Even though we haven't known each other for long, we already consider you a good friend. If you have any problems, don't hesitate to let us know."

Voices of inquiries and concerns were heard as everyone turned their attention to Teng Xiyuan.

This statement made Teng Xiyuan, a guy with a mischievous mind, feel a warm sensation.

Thinking about it, being a good person and making friends seemed like a good choice too, instead of being a villain.

Teng Xiyuan left.

He followed Yuan Cheng towards the Heaven and Earth Sect.

This time, only the two of them went.

Yuan Cheng didn't have many friends, just about three or four, and Teng Xiyuan was the only one left in the Chaos Palace.

Before long, the two of them arrived not far from the small island.

Teng Xiyuan's pupils shrank.

"No matter if it's a dangerous place, I, Teng Xiyuan, must overcome it today."

"I want to see what secrets this island holds."

"My Lord of Destruction, please rest assured!"

"I will help you thoroughly investigate this island!"

Finally, Teng Xiyuan followed Yuan Cheng onto the island.

"Hahaha, welcome to the island."

"I don't know how to address both of you."

"Oh, this is my good friend Yuan Cheng."

"This is my good friend Teng Xiyuan."

"So it's Brother Yuan and Brother Teng. Haha, welcome, welcome! We both have good judgment, and from now on, we are family."

After arriving on the island, the two of them were warmly welcomed.

Because the group of people who came from the Chaos Palace had already formed a small community on the island.

The group didn't have any ulterior motives.

It was just that coming from the same place naturally created a sense of closeness.

This warmth made Teng Xiyuan, who originally wanted to investigate the island alone, feel a bit embarrassed. He started making friends with the people on the island.

They had a great time.

They drank and reveled throughout the night.

The next day.

He finally learned some general information about the island and that there was a Heaven and Earth Sect inside.

"I have a basic understanding of this small island!"

"There are indeed many experts, and there's also the Heaven and Earth Sect."

"I must report to my Lord of Destruction as soon as possible."

But just as he was about to leave the island and deliver the message, someone dragged him to drink.

"It's not that I want to stay on this island, but I can't refuse their hospitality. How about I go back tomorrow? Delaying one day to inform my Lord of Destruction won't affect the overall situation."

Teng Xiyuan thought this way and went to drink with the others.

After another night of drinking.

Early the next morning.

Someone enthusiastically pulled him to scavenge for scraps.

"These people are so passionate about scavenging, there must be hidden motives."

"My Lord of Destruction, I'll delay one more day. Knowing the enemy is the key to victory in a hundred battles."

Teng Xiyuan thought like this and joined the others in their activities.

However.

He suddenly realized that on the first day of scavenging, he had made a breakthrough.

And then he continued scavenging for seven days straight.

After seven days.

He discovered that this island was even more terrifying than he had imagined!!!

It was simply mind-blowing.

"If I don't inform my Lord of Destruction soon, something big will happen!"

"But let me scavenge for one more day!"

"By improving my strength, I can better serve you, my Lord of Destruction!"
