Chapter 2116 - 1622:

"Truly perfect..." the Faceless Immortal murmured, unable to hide his longing.

"What you say, Daoist, is indeed reasonable. But now, he is strong and I am weak. If so-called ’perfection’ truly requires us to reunite, I’m afraid I will be the one hunted."

"I fear you have already vaguely understood this in your heart, which is why you’ve been in hiding," Li Fan said, revealing the truth.

"As for his strength compared to yours... you need not worry, Daoist. With my aid, merely What Does Immortal is nothing to fear."

The Faceless Immortal had a clear understanding of his counterpart’s strength. His communication with Li Fan was only through the Faceless Stone Statue from a distance.

Therefore, despite Li Fan’s assured attitude, he harbored some doubts: "The True Immortal of Morality has long transcended. What power and realm do you possess to have such confidence?"

Li Fan smiled slightly: "I’m just a Minor Transcendence. The reason it’s not to be feared is not because of me, but because of you."

"Me?" the Faceless Immortal was slightly startled.

"As they say, attack where the enemy must defend. With you here, I don’t have to scour the Mountain Sea to find him. I merely need to expose your whereabouts, then set a trap and lie in wait. With intention against accident, naturally, victory is assured," Li Fan said calmly.

"Why did you choose to help me? Is it a grudge against him, or because of King of Mystic Sky?" the Faceless Immortal was a bit puzzled.

"Neither, neither. I simply wish to meet this True Immortal of Morality."

Li Fan’s answer was somewhat unexpected to the Faceless Immortal, plunging him into a long silence.

"Although he lacks virtue and is rebellious, his moral cultivation approaches perfection. He is extremely sensitive to all external disharmonies and malice. To scheme against him... I fear it’s most difficult."

"The more you tell us about him, the better our chances."

Li Fan’s words rendered the Faceless Immortal speechless.

However, without easily agreeing to Li Fan, after the silence, the Faceless Immortal only replied, "I need to think about it carefully."

"No worries, I’m just intrigued for the moment. When you figure it out, you can contact me anytime through this stone statue."

"Oh, and one more thing..." As the aura in the stone statue was about to sever, Li Fan suddenly asked.

"Back when the Mystic Sky Sect was destroyed, and the King of Mystic Sky mysteriously vanished, within the sect, your stone statue’s head inexplicably cracked. Then, the Tian Beast sent a signal towards your location..."

"Do you know what exactly happened to the King of Mystic Sky back then? And what message did he convey to you?" Li Fan’s eyes were deep.

The response was long silence.

"Back then, when he faced a crisis, I did lend a hand. But someone else truly ensured his safety. As for what he said to me..."

"That I cannot tell you." After saying this, the aura within the Mystic Sky Stone Statue completely disappeared.

Li Fan chuckled: "As expected of the ’Virtue’ among the True Immortal of Morality."

He casually put away the Faceless Stone Statue. This world wasn’t urgent to truly end yet. He would see if there was an opportunity to meet the True Immortal of Morality.

"Can’t see me, can’t see me, can’t see me..." The Measureless Barrier kept muttering in its heart, praying for Li Fan’s departure.

And as if its wish came true, Li Fan’s figure flickered and disappeared.

The moment before, the Measureless Barrier dared not move, but now, it instantly fled towards the High Wall, carrying Bai Shuyue’s corpse with it.

"I knew I’d eventually escape misfortune unscathed."

"Though recently, it’s truly been a run of bad luck, constantly encountering danger. It’s best to quickly find a safe place and hide for a while."

"At the moment of leaping over the Star Sea Barrier, there will be a dual transition. Since the route through the Star Sea outside the barrier seems impassable, then it’s to another place..." Having made up its mind, the Measureless Barrier hurriedly sought escape.

Just as the High Wall came into sight, a figure flashed ahead, blocking the path.

It was Li Fan again!

The Measureless Barrier’s heart froze, its body sharply halting.

"Why is this fierce spirit back again?"

"Can’t see me, can’t see me..."

With nothing else to do, the Measureless Barrier could only harden its resolve and chant in its heart again.

Yet this time, the spell failed.

"I’m rather curious, why are you so good to her?"

"You don’t seem like the type to give without expecting a return. Though she indeed has exceptional talent and potential to transcend, that’s an eventuality many years away. To consume all your treasured accumulation for a vague future..."

"Could it be, in such a short time, you’ve developed a genuine affection for her?"

Li Fan slightly bent his fingers, and the Measureless Barrier fell into his grasp.

The ’her’ in his words naturally referred to Bai Shuyue.

Though the inherent value of the Measureless Barrier was no longer of interest to Li Fan.

But upon seeing the Measureless Barrier attempting to escape while still carrying the aunt’s corpse, Li Fan became intrigued by the Measureless Barrier’s motives.

The nature of the Measureless Barrier was something he had long seen through.

In normal circumstances, it would never expend such effort on the Mortal Bai Shuyue. Yet it did...

If something unusual occurs, there must be an anomaly.

Though he posed a question, Li Fan didn’t expect the Measureless Barrier to voluntarily answer honestly.

With a slight pressure from his fingers, strands of light penetrated into the Measureless Barrier.

All of the Measureless Barrier’s thoughts turned into flowing light, absorbed and comprehended by Li Fan.

"Helping her now means a tenfold reward in the future. This kind of instinct..." After understanding the Measureless Barrier’s motivation, Li Fan’s eyebrows lightly raised.
