After a period of flight, Liu Chen finally arrived at the location marked by Fairy Li Shan. As he landed in this area, he immediately noticed his surroundings.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng and Immortal Zombie Fang Yuan had already arrived earlier, standing quietly to the side. Fairy Li Shan and Hei Lou Lan were also there, seemingly having waited for a long time.
The sword light Liu Chen transformed into streaked across the sky like a meteor, accurately landing in front of everyone. He smiled gently and said in a mild tone, "Fellow Daoists, I am late."
However, in stark contrast to his friendly demeanor, the others were all wary of him. They stared intently at Liu Chen, as if they would immediately attack him en masse if he made the slightest move.
Hei Lou Lan's gaze was particularly sharp; she scrutinized Liu Chen, seemingly suspicious of his identity. After a while, she finally spoke, "Are you Anonymous?"
Liu Chen smiled faintly and replied, "That's right, it is I. I imagine that besides me, no one else could produce this immortal gu." As he spoke, he unhesitatingly took out a rank six Strength Path immortal gu from his immortal aperture and handed it to Hei Lou Lan.
An immortal gu is unique, so it naturally could not be fake.
However, what was surprising was that he now pretended not to know each other, so much so that even if others met him, they would find it difficult to recognize him. His appearance was like that of a complete stranger, which undoubtedly made everyone wary of him.
"Anonymous Fellow Daoist, I am deeply grateful for your help in rescuing Xiaolan this time. If there is anything I can do, I will do my best and never decline." Fairy Li Shan, with her peerless beauty, bowed gracefully to Liu Chen, her etiquette impeccable.
Liu Chen quickly returned the bow, saying, "Fairy, you overstate it; saving a life is simply my duty. However, I do have something to ask for here, but the time is not yet ripe, so it's inconvenient to elaborate. We can discuss it after Miss Lou Lan successfully ascends to immortality."
Just then, Tai Bai Yun Sheng, with his white hair and eyebrows, suddenly stepped forward and walked directly in front of Liu Chen, asking eagerly, "Anonymous Fellow Daoist, I heard that you possess the method of Immortal Zombie Rebirth. Is this true?"
It turned out that Tai Bai Yun Sheng encountered many difficulties during his Undergoing Tribulation to immortality and eventually fainted. When he slowly regained consciousness, he was shocked to find that his Junior Brother had become an Immortal Zombie corpse. How could he bear this sudden change? The guilt in his heart surged like a tide, which is why he eagerly came to ask Liu Chen, hoping to get a glimmer of hope from him.
"I do have clues about the method of Immortal Zombie Rebirth," Liu Chen's voice was calm and firm as he looked directly into Tai Bai Yun Sheng's eyes, "but the value of this Immortal Zombie Rebirth method is extremely high. What do you have to exchange for it?"
Tai Bai Yun Sheng clearly hadn't expected Liu Chen to ask such a direct question. He hesitated for a moment, then answered without hesitation, "I can exchange it for an Immortal Gu!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Immortal Zombie Fang Yuan immediately stepped forward and stopped Tai Bai Yun Sheng. "Old Bai, absolutely not!" Immortal Zombie Fang Yuan shouted, "An Immortal Gu is unique; how can you easily give it up for me? Moreover, I am not entirely without clues; let's think of other methods. What's more, even if an Immortal Gu is truly needed for exchange, it should be my own Immortal Gu!"
Immortal Zombie Fang Yuan's attitude was exceptionally firm; he knew how precious Tai Bai Yun Sheng's two Immortal Gu were and that they absolutely could not be easily exchanged for information that was still uncertain.
Their conversation was not at all concealed, as natural as ordinary chat. Although Fairy Li Shan and Hei Lou Lan were some distance from them, with their hearing, they naturally heard every word clearly.
Hei Lou Lan secretly mused that this Anonymous seemed mysterious and to possess many unknown confidential pieces of Information Path, so she absolutely could not underestimate him.
Fairy Li Shan, on the other hand, knew well that Fiendess Fen Tian possessed the ultimate move for Immortal Zombie Rebirth, but she wondered if this Anonymous also had other methods.
Just then, Liu Chen suddenly spoke, commenting on Tai Bai Yun Sheng's two Immortal Gu: "Person as Before, Land As Before, your two Immortal Gu are indeed incredibly miraculous! However, I don't want your Immortal Gu; I only hope you can lend them to me for ten days. In exchange, I will tell you this information. How about it? I can also form an Alliance with you, with Fairy Li Shan as a witness."
Tai Bai Yun Sheng heard this, thought for a moment, and felt that this proposal seemed reasonable enough.
This time, however, he did not rashly agree; instead, he turned to look at his Junior Brother, awaiting Fang Yuan's decision.
Fairy Li Shan, seeing this, immediately responded, "Naturally, Fellow Daoists, I have already drafted the Alliance agreement. With Great Snow Mountain as the pledge, as long as Great Snow Mountain Blessed Land remains, there is no need to worry about anyone violating the oath." With that, she took out a written Alliance agreement from her bosom and gently placed it before everyone.
"I want to see the Alliance agreement first," Immortal Zombie Fang Yuan said to Fairy Li Shan with a serious expression, extending a hand.
Fairy Li Shan, seeing this, smiled slightly and said softly, "Please."
She naturally handed the Alliance agreement in her hand to Fang Yuan.
After receiving the Alliance agreement, Fang Yuan spread it open with both hands. His gaze was fixed on every word on the Alliance agreement, carefully analyzing each clause, not missing any detail, trying to find any possible loopholes or hidden traps left by Fairy Li Shan.
However, despite Fang Yuan's focus and caution, his Information Path Realm was simply too mediocre, so much so that even after such careful observation, he still could not discover if there were any hidden moves within the Alliance agreement.
This Alliance agreement detailed various codes of conduct among them, such as not attacking each other, not betraying information, and so on. These regulations laid the foundation for their Alliance, ensuring mutual trust and cooperation.
At the same time, the Alliance agreement also clearly stated that mutual assistance was not gratuitous, and everyone needed to pay a certain price for it to ensure fairness. This meant that even when assisting Fairy Li Shan and Hei Lou Lan, they would receive corresponding remuneration.
"No problem."
After careful deliberation, Fang Yuan finally confirmed that this Alliance agreement was fine. He nodded with satisfaction, then picked up a pen and meticulously wrote his name on the Alliance agreement.
After completing all this, Fang Yuan handed the Alliance agreement to Tai Bai Yun Sheng.
Tai Bai Yun Sheng took the Alliance agreement, and after hearing that his Junior Brother had confirmed it was correct, he did not re-examine it but unhesitatingly picked up a pen and signed his name on the Alliance agreement as well.
