[4: Deep within your fief lies an incomplete Secret Realm used by the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect for disciplining disciples back in the day]

[5: Fu Yongfu of the Fu family's Yong Generation possesses extraordinary talent in Talisman Making, but he is currently studying the Spirit Plant Technique in the Spirit Plant Hall]

[6: The mysterious stone egg chosen by your second son has hatched, and he has successfully formed a symbiotic contract with the spirit beast that emerged.]

....

Symbiotic Spirit Beast?!

Upon reading the sixth piece of information.

He no longer had the heart to continue the exchange and hurriedly stopped.

Because the four words 'symbiotic spirit beast' were too glaring; it's easy to understand from the literal meaning that after forming a contract, one would live and die with the spirit beast!

It was vastly different from their usual spirit pets.

When a spirit pet dies, its owner merely suffers damage to their Divine Sense:

"This... how could Brother Rong form such a contract with that spirit beast!"

The second son was weak since birth.

They, as parents, have always favored him more.

Knowing Meizhen well, Meizhen would never allow Brother Rong to form a symbiotic contract with that spirit beast.

Binding one's life to a spirit beast is too dangerous.

At this moment he could no longer stay put.

He cast a technique onto the array.

Ripples flashed across.

The array activated.

Nanny Liuu's face immediately came into view.

Upon seeing Fu Changsheng come out of seclusion, Nanny Liuu's eyes lit up:

"Patriarch, you finally came out!"

Saying this.

She quickly conjured a technique to send a message to Liuu Meizhen.

Seeing Nanny Liuu so panicked, Fu Changsheng had a faint bad feeling in his heart. By the time he arrived in the backyard from the secret chamber.

After two years apart, the noticeably thinner Liuu Meizhen hurried back from the front yard:

"Meizhen, you...."

Meizhen appeared much more haggard, and her face seemed aged.

Liuu Meizhen gestured to Nanny Liuu to wait outside the door. After activating the array, she pulled Fu Changsheng to sit on the stone bench under the Silver Star Tree:

"Husband"

"A strange event occurred in the clan after you went into seclusion for a year...."

Right then, she recounted the sudden disappearance overnight of the Bailing Fish, Snow Cloud Chicken, among others.

In the end.

With guilt and self-blame, she reluctantly spoke:

"Husband, Brother Rong is also missing."

What?!

Fu Changsheng's heart tightened.

The information only mentioned that Brother Rong formed a symbiotic contract with the hatched mysterious stone egg, but did not mention his disappearance:

"Meizhen, have you found any clues over this year?"

"Yes"

Liuu Meizhen pulled out a note from her sleeve and handed it to Fu Changsheng:

"Husband, along with the strange event in the clan, all our memories from the next morning were erased. However, when I woke up, I found a note written by me in my hand."

Memories erased?

Fu Changsheng's pupils shrank as he quickly took the note, seeing a few words written in elegant small characters: "Brother Rong in a safe place."

Additionally, a simple diagram was drawn at the bottom of the note.

Upon a closer look.

It pointed directly to the back mountain.

In that moment of realization.

Fu Changsheng faintly guessed a possibility:

"Meizhen, wait for me, I'm heading to the back mountain now."

Anxious about Brother Rong's situation, he immediately used the Ascension Step, flashing several times to reach the wine cellar at the back mountain. The light curtain of the array before the wine cellar created ripples, opening a gap.

Fu Changsheng squinted his eyes.

From this, it was evident that Grandmaster Yu had anticipated his arrival.

Upon entering through the array gap.

Grandmaster Yu was meditating with closed eyes.

Compared to over two years ago, Grandmaster Yu looked much healthier.

Despite having broken through to the Third-Layer Foundation Establishment, he still couldn't see through Grandmaster Yu's current cultivation, but judging by the various actions upon the Fu family's arrival, there was no sign of malice thus far.

Fu Changsheng cupped his hands:

"Grandmaster Yu, I just came out of seclusion and heard from Meizhen about Brother Rong's disappearance. I wonder if you discovered anything."

Grandmaster Yu opened his eyes from meditation.

Without saying a word.

He conjured a technique with his right hand.

A scene instantly appeared in the void.

The scene.

He immediately recognized it.

It was the Magma Lake below the Scripture Pavilion.

However.

The previously dwelling groups of Flame Demons at the Magma Lake had disappeared, replaced by heaps of skeletal remains lining the lake.

Deep within the Magma Lake.

"Thump, thump!"

Powerful, forceful heartbeats could be heard.

Fu Changsheng instantly understood what was happening, quickly turned to Grandmaster Yu and bowed:

"Thank you for your guidance, Grandmaster Yu."

Immediately his figure flickered.

Once out of the back mountain, he donned the Invisibility Cloak, swiftly arriving at the Scripture Pavilion at Niushou Mountain, burrowing underground to reach the Magma Lake, only to find an isolation array had been added around the Magma Lake.

When he stood firm.

The light curtain of the array slowly opened.

"Thump, thump!"

Powerful heartbeats sounded from within.

Fu Changsheng turned to face the direction of the back mountain wine cellar, bowed in gratitude, then flashed his figure, entering the Magma Lake.

Inside, the previously abundant Fire Spiritual Power seemed drained, leaving only scorching heat, and heartbeats emanated from beneath the Magma Lake.

Upon entering the array.

The array's light curtain closed again.

"Brother Rong?!"

Fu Changsheng stood by the Magma Lake, tentatively calling out.

The next instant.

Rumble!!

The entire Magma Lake shook.

Boom!

A burst of Earth Fire shot up from the lake.

More Earth Fire erupted.

In an instant.

Spreading across the entire Magma Lake.

Simultaneously.

Within the raging Earth Fire.

A highly elastic fireball shot up with a pop, lingering affectionately around him, with heartbeats bursting forth from the fireball.
