Shen Lian smiled and said, “Daoist Wang and fellow Daoist, sorry to interrupt your Dao discussion.”

　　Daoist Wang politely invited Shen Lian and Zhao Xiaoyu to their seats and introduced to them each and everyone who was present. Most of them were neither from the Xuantian Sect nor any big figures in the world of cultivation. But a couple of them were famed cultivators with stunning accomplishments.

　　Besides Wang Shidao, there were three other unfathomable people collectively known as the Trio of Suihan.

　　They were Layperson Tiansong, Guzhu the Elderly, and Mister Jinghe.

　　The three of them had stepped into celestial state, and each of them had different cultivations. Their Qi of Dao was as vigorous as the sea. Layperson Tiansong’s physical built was tall and big but he was friendly when he spoke, Guzhu the Elderly radiated a calm sword aura, while Mister Jinghe looked calm and noble.

　　They were respectable true celestials.

　　After greeting the host and guests, the people present at that moment then realized the impressive backgrounds of the two guests. That they were, in fact, Qing Xuan’s Chief, Zhenren Shen, and Daluo Saintess, Zhao Xiaoyu.

　　In the past thousand years, the most outstanding figure among the younger generation in Yuan Continent was undoubtedly Shen Lian. The speed of his rise was second to none and in fact, the speed of reincarnation of a heavenly immortal was probably slightly inferior to him.

　　And the attractive lady next to him was Zhao Xiaoyu, the person who made waves in the world of cultivation. As Luoism was massively dynamic, she was able to re-established the teachings in a short period of time. Although things were not exactly smooth, as long as there’s Zhao Xiaoyu, Luoism would still be influential throughout the Yuan Continent.

　　Because of that, other guests were friendly towards the two of them. Even if they were not able to be their friend, but at least, they did not want to be in their bad books.

　　Shen Lian and Zhao Xiaoyu sat on the right of Wang Shidao. Seated opposite of them was the Trio of Suihan.

　　The two seats were empty prior to their arrival. The audiences could not help but feel impressed, that perhaps Wang Shidao predicted the arrival of the two guests. Within the Xuantian Sect, except for Xiangshan, Wang Shidao was indeed second to none.

　　Wang Shidao looked at Zhao Xiaoyu and Shen Lian, “I believe the reason for your visit here is to cure this fairy’s injuries. Judging from the damage to her godly body, the injury was inflicted by the Taisu Sword, am I right?”

　　Some of the guests could tell that Zhao Xiaoyu was lacking in divine Qi but they did not expect the culprit was the Taisu Sword. They could not help but wonder if Luoism was at war with the Taisu Sect.

　　Although most of them lived in solitary, they were still concerned about the happenings of the world. They could faintly sense that great change would be coming soon to the heaven and earth and now that Zhao Xiaoyu was hurt by the Taisu Sword, that was a sure sign that something was brewing.

　　Zhao Xiaoyu replied with a gentle voice, “Fellow Daoist brother, you are very wise. It’s hard to heal from this injury and I gave some thoughts to it. Only Elder Xiangshan would be able to save me, and that is the purpose of my visit.”

　　Wang Shidao sighed deeply and said, “Unfortunately my master is currently out wandering, and I am not sure when would he return.”

　　Zhao Xiaoyu was not disappointed but smiled instead, “Looks like I am destined to face this trial.”

　　Her openness towards life and death matters was heartbreaking to see. The guests thought to themselves that although Luoism was not the most consistent teaching, she was indeed an impressive figure.

　　Wang Shidao responded, “It’s not that I want to turn you down. If my master is roaming around this universe, I would be able to reach out and contact him. But this time around, he went somewhere deep within the galaxy and there is no connection. It might take him a year and a half, or as long as fifty years to return.”

　　Shen Lian sighed in his heart. Lu Jiuyuan probably did not want to get involved in the matters of this universe and that was why he purposely stayed out of business. Such attitude would affect the Xuantian Sect. But considering that Wang Shidao’s master was Xiangshan, even if he was capable of healing Zhao Xiaoyu, he might not be willing to do so.

　　Zhao Xiaoyu was undisturbed, “This is a request and I wouldn’t complain. Please don’t mind it at all.”

　　Wang Shidao was relieved and said, “Perhaps you have not heard about this, the Temple of Contentment is a place to discuss the metaphysics and Dao. Everyone is welcomed to express their opinion. If it’s convenient, why don’t the two of you stay back for a while, and considering that Daoist Shen is a friend of my junior apprentice-brother, I’ll summon him to play host and entertain you.”

　　Judging from their Qi, Shen Lian could tell that these cultivators were not from the same sect. They gathered together to seek the truth. If Wang Shidao could persuade them to stay willingly, he would also share his opinions.

　　Qing Xuan used to host this type of exchange during its peak. In fact, the one hundred and eight techniques were the brainchild of interactions between internal cultivators of the school.

　　The Dao meeting organized by Wang Shidao did not care about the views of each school and they did not speak of the pros and cons. But his broad-mindedness was indeed impressive.

　　Shen Lian smiled, “Learning alone without exchanges with others will lead to ignorance. We appreciate your generous sentiment.”

　　Wang Shidao turned to Zhao Xiaoyu and she smilingly said, “That was exactly my thoughts.”

　　Wang Shidao smiled, “I am envious of the conjugal bliss between the two of you.”

　　Shen Lian and Zhao Xiaoyu did not further explain but smiled instead.

　　Wang Shidao smiled to the guests present and said, “Today is indeed a grand occasion with distinguished guests appearing one after another. To get the ball rolling, I will talk about my master’s Enlightenment Scripture.”

　　The guests were stunned. Their usual Dao discussion with Wang Shidao was already very impressive but that day, to show his sincerity, he offered to talk about the fundamentals of Xuantian Sect, the Enlightenment Scripture. Even if it was just a small fraction of it, it would still be a priceless experience.

　　Shen Lian and Zhao Xiaoyu too were stunned and impressed.

　　Wang Shidao leisurely uttered the resonance.

　　“Nothing is non-heaven, nothing is non-fated, nothing is non-god, nothing is non-abstruse. If everything were so, men too are not excluded. Men could be heaven, men could be god, men could be fatal and abstruse. But their heaven is not this heaven, their god is not this god, their fate is not this fate and their abstruse is not this abstruse. It is kindness that makes a Daoist, that is fatally abstruse. Different means of learning, of the same thing, getting consensus, forgetting the other name.”

　　Zhao Xiaoyu was unexplainably thrilled. To other people, this Enlightenment Scripture was a deep and abstruse resonance. But to her, it felt like spring rain after a long drought. It was actually healing her injuries as her divine power gradually restored from the erosion of the forces of Taisu. She felt an unexplainable change in her and it restored her hopes in breaking through her cultivation of the Book of Nine Lotus.

　　Being one with Dao would encourage one to attain Dao. To reach for something new, one must first let go of what was in their hands. This was an ultimate method that put the pieces of Dao together.

　　Apparently, Wang Shidao was using his Dao lecture to indirectly treat Zhao Xiaoyu’s injuries. He left no traces and was able to stay out of trouble. If the two of them were stingy in sharing their own way of Dao, Zhao Xiaoyu would have missed the opportunity to have her wounds treated.
