At the foot of Dragon Tiger Mountain, YL Hotel.

A middle-aged man in his forties, with a receding hairline, hurriedly walked into the hotel.

He was holding a file bag in his hand, and his expression was somewhat serious.

After entering the hotel, he took the elevator all the way to the seventh floor and knocked on a certain room.

"Uncle Li, you're back?"

It was a young girl who opened the door.

"Yes."

The middle-aged man nodded and walked straight into the room.

In the living room, an elderly man in his sixties was seriously reviewing some documents.

If Lu Heng were here, he would notice that these documents were the personal details of every Daoist from Shangqing Tao, along with the interview records from the Religious Affairs Bureau officials for each individual.

"Elder Song, this is the investigation report from the West City Police Station in Beiyuan City."

"The complainant Zhao Feng confirmed that he only found the body behind the kitchen cabinet thanks to the guidance of that fortune-telling Daoist."

"Someone recorded the live broadcast from that night, which also proves this point."

The middle-aged man spoke as he handed the file bag to the elderly man.

The elderly man nodded slightly upon hearing this.

He took out the contents of the file bag and examined them carefully before asking, "Are you sure that fortune-telling Daoist's IP is indeed located at Shangqing Tao?"

"We are sure!"

The middle-aged man nodded and said in a deep voice, "According to the backend data of Douhu Live, the fortune-telling Daoist's IP has never changed and has always been located at Shangqing Tao."

"How's the analysis of that fortune-telling Daoist coming along?"

The elderly man asked again.

"Not much gain, there are still some contradictions."

The middle-aged man frowned and slowly said, "The opponent has always worn a mask, and coupled with the dim lighting, it's impossible to see what they look like."

"Judging by the skin of the hands and other exposed parts, the person seems not to be very old."

"But the way they speak doesn't feel like that of a young person."

"For instance, when they do fortune-telling, they habitually address the client as a 'young friend,' never making a mistake."

"If all this isn't an intentional disguise, then it indicates that this person's psychological age is far greater than what their appearance suggests."

The elderly man furrowed his brow upon hearing this.

He pondered for quite a while before speaking, "Li, do you think the 'Immortal' who punished the Island Country people that day could be this fortune-telling Daoist?"

"It's possible."

The middle-aged man nodded without hesitation.

The elderly man continued, "These pieces of evidence suggest that the 'Immortal' might actually be quite old, but appears young."

"During the live broadcast, every fortune-telling was accurate, and he could summon Celestial Thunder and condense clouds into words."

"Such an extraordinary figure has remained hidden at Shangqing Tao and only recently became exposed."

"Why do you think he suddenly appeared but is unwilling to reveal himself?"

"Sigh!"

As the elderly man spoke, he couldn't help but sigh, "Since this person doesn't want to reveal himself, even if we turned Shangqing Tao upside down, we might still not find his true identity."

"So what should we do now?"

The middle-aged man asked.

"Let's return to Yanjing!"

The elderly man smiled helplessly, "Since the other party doesn't wish to appear, we shouldn't push too hard either."

"But..."

The middle-aged man expressed his doubts, "This person's existence is definitely an unstable factor."

"If we don't find him, might it cause more trouble?"

After hesitating for a while, the elderly man softly said, "Then let's observe for a little longer!"

...

The night fell.

At the foot of Dragon Tiger Mountain, a Toyota Alphard slowly drove up.

After the Alphard reached a secluded corner at the mountain's base, it came to a stop.

As the car door opened, four people with bandages on their heads sneakily got out.

"Abe, do we really need to go up there again?"

One of them asked in a low voice.

These four were none other than Abe and his companions who had once challenged Dragon Tiger Mountain along with Mukai.

"We must go!"

Abe's eyes burned with intense anger.

Since being struck by lightning on Dragon Tiger Mountain, he had not only suffered unprecedented pain, but also lost a large number of followers on YouTube.

It would have been one thing if it was just personal suffering.

But those YouTube followers translate to money!

This failure had cost him nearly half of his followers.

In the eyes of those followers, he had become a laughingstock, a fool who brought disgrace upon himself.

This was a humiliation he couldn't swallow.

So, today he must take his revenge to vent his anger.

"But... but there's really an Immortal on Dragon Tiger Mountain!"

The person speaking looked up at the mountain top, eyes filled with fear.

"Baka! How could there be an Immortal in this world?"

"Last time, we were just unlucky and got struck by lightning."

Abe said dismissively.

"But didn't the clouds in the sky later form some Chinese characters?"

The person continued.

"Baka! That was just a special effect added by those Dragon Country people!"

"Special effects, do you understand?"

"We got struck by lightning, and those Dragon Country people used the opportunity to edit the footage with special effects to prove their Immortal's existence; it's utterly shameless!"

Abe got more and more agitated as he spoke.

"But Mukai said it wasn't a special effect..."

The person continued to argue.

He didn't want to go up the mountain and get struck by lightning again.

"Baka! Mukai is a Dragon Country person; he must be involved."

"His evasiveness is proof of his guilty conscience."

Abe proclaimed confidently.

Since they were struck by lightning, Mukai had not shown up.

The last contact between them was two days ago, through a phone call.

During that call, Mukai announced he would cut off cooperation with them.

Abe was sure that Mukai had been bribed by the Dragon Country government.

Even more shamelessly, Mukai had supposedly added special effects to the livestream, causing him to lose so many followers on YouTube.

Tonight, he would first retaliate against Shangqing Tao.

When the opportunity arose, he would seek revenge on Mukai!

"Up the mountain!"

Abe, unwilling to say more, waved his hand decisively and started ascending.

The other three were reluctant, but since Abe was the leader, they helplessly followed, dragging themselves towards the peak.

About half an hour later, the four of them were gasping for breath.

Fortunately, since Dragon Tiger Mountain had been closed off, they hadn't encountered anyone along the way.

"Where's the gasoline? Did you bring it?"

Abe asked in a low voice.

"Brought it, brought it."

The other three, hearing this, quickly took out the pre-prepared gasoline from their backpacks.

"Good!"

Seeing the three large buckets of gasoline in front of him, Abe nodded in satisfaction.

"Dragon Country's Immortal?"

"Today, I will burn down your temple and see if you still have any divine power!"
