Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 542: Let's get started!
Firstly, it allows you to multitask and do multiple things at the same time, making it very efficient.

Secondly, it can also hide one's true form, conceal one's identity, and ensure one's own safety.

Thirdly, it is highly discreet, allowing one to easily disguise themselves as other faces and identities without attracting too much attention.

Moreover, when it comes to the art of creating clones, Gu Yuan believed that although his own clone technique was powerful, there were countless other methods of creating clones and splitting spirits within the demonic path.

Therefore, the person in front of you has most likely already been possessed by the soul of the Blood Crying Immortal or by a god or demon.

Moreover, this is only on the surface; in reality, no one knows how many other tricks this old guy has hidden.

Seeing Gu Yuan's composed demeanor, showing no discomfort or unusual behavior even face-to-face with him, and even appearing calm and collected, Blood Cry Master felt a chill run down his spine.

Gu Yuan's performance shows that the other party is not afraid at all and is full of confidence!

"Since you've come here in person, you probably aren't just here for idle chatter, are you?"

Gu Yuan slowly finished his practice, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a faint purple light.

"good."

Blood Weeping Immortal said calmly, "It's almost time. I have received definite news that Xiu Daozhen and Zheng Xingkong have just emerged from seclusion and are currently resting."

He then looked at Gu Yuan and said, "If you or I were to make a move, now is the best time!"

"Alright."

Gu Yuan nodded, then seemed to remember something and asked directly, "Does the Master have any plans?"

The Blood-Weeping Immortal smiled, looked at himself, then at Gu Yuan, and said meaningfully, "You and I both share the surname Xiu now. Isn't this the best identity?"

"Indeed, what you said makes sense."

Gu Yuan smiled upon hearing this. He actually had the same idea himself.

Xiu Daozhen and Zheng Xingkong are not easy characters to deal with. Each of them has a deeper cultivation and is more ruthless and decisive than the other. Such people are naturally not easy to deal with.

The simplest yet most difficult method is actually for the two of them to go directly to the door, without saying any nice words, and just get to work.

However, doing so might alert the enemy before they even reach Xiu Daozhen's cave, causing their mission to fail.

Fortunately, Gu Yuan and Xueqi Zhenren had already made arrangements in advance, changing their appearances and becoming Xiu Yanqi and Xiu Yanqing, descendants of Xiu Daozhen.

In this way, with a suitable identity, one will naturally have the opportunity to take action.

At this moment, Xueqi Zhenren revealed a strange smile and said, "Yesterday afternoon I just received news that a few days ago someone saw Yan Chunyang of the Rift Sky Sword Sect nearby. I think this matter is very important and it is necessary to tell Grandfather. Third brother, what do you think?"

Yan Chunyang of the Rift Heaven Sword Sect?

Gu Yuan was taken aback upon hearing this, and his expression clearly showed some surprise.

In fact, the reason he came to Little Iron Cloud Island was to inquire about Yan Chunyang.

Apart from Gu Yuan, Yan Chunyang, and their disciples, no one else knew anything about this matter.

Furthermore, Gu Yuan and Yan Chunyang are good friends, so how did this matter get involved with Yan Chunyang?

Could it be that Blood Cry Master knows that he knows Yan Chunyang?
Thinking of this, Gu Yuan recalled what the other person had just said and suddenly shook his head, realizing he had overthought things.

Not many people knew that Gu Yuan knew Yan Chunyang, and besides, both times they met, Gu Yuan used other identities, so it was impossible for outsiders to know.
Moreover, what Master Xueqi said just now was very clear. He was obviously telling the two of them to use this excuse to get close to Xiudaozhen and then make a move.

After all, it is a fact that Yan Chunyang and Xiu Daozhen did have a considerable conflict.

Not only did Yan Chunyang reveal this to him, but Xiu Yanqi and Xiu Yanqing also had some related memories. More than ten years ago, Yan Chunyang had a grudge against Xiu Daozhen, and it seemed that one of Yan Chunyang's senior brothers was also involved. The details were unclear, but it was known that the two had a deep grudge, and that Xiu Daozhen was extremely wary of and valued Yan Chunyang.

This matter is sure to attract Xiu Daozhen's attention.

Gu Yuan straightened his expression and said seriously, "Sixth Brother, what you said makes sense. This matter is of great importance. We should report it as soon as possible."

Xiu Yanzheng nodded and smiled, "Why don't we go and report this matter now?"

Gu Yuan naturally wouldn't refuse.

After a brief discussion, the two set off immediately for Xiu Daozhen's cave.

Upon arriving outside the cave, Gu Yuan stepped forward, only to be stopped by a young boy: "Greetings, Third Young Master and Sixth Young Master. What brings you here?"

The boy was not tall, and looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old. He had red lips and white teeth, and handsome features. He spoke calmly and casually, with a composed demeanor. When he looked at Gu Yuan, or rather Xiu Yanqing, his gaze was somewhat condescending.

However, Gu Yuan was not surprised at all, because he knew the identity of the Taoist boy in front of him.

Despite his young age, this Daoist is actually a seasoned cultivator who has reached the Great Perfection of the Golden Core realm, and may even be higher. He is probably only one step away from the Yin God realm.

This person is Xiu Daozhen's true confidant.

To put it bluntly, compared to the descendants of Xiu Yanqi, Xiu Yanqing, and Xiu Yanzheng, this boy in front of him is probably the one who receives the most attention and trust from Xiu Daozhen.

"Please trouble you to pass on a message, senior. My sixth brother and I have something important to report today, and it concerns Yan Chunyang."

Gu Yuan didn't waste any words and got straight to the point.

Upon hearing this, the boy was stunned and stood frozen in place. He was naturally well aware of the grudge between Yan Chunyang and his master, Xiu Daozhen.

Therefore, this matter cannot be delayed at all.

"Then I'll trouble you two to wait a moment while I go and be right back."

After saying this, the boy hurriedly left.

Gu Yuan and Blood Cry Master exchanged a glance, saying nothing, their unspoken understanding unspoken.

Before long, the boy hurriedly came out of the cave and said, "Please come in, both of you."

Gu Yuan and Xueqi Zhenren exchanged another glance, said nothing, and went directly into Xiudao Zhenren's cave.

After winding their way through pavilions, corridors, and gardens, the two soon arrived at a high cliff, led by the boy.

Here, the clouds and mist swirl around.

On the flat ground of this high cliff, there is a table and two stone benches.

Two figures sat there, gazing at the distant scenery.

On the table were two cups of spiritual tea.

Upon seeing this, Gu Yuan's eyes flickered slightly, and then he respectfully bowed: "Yan Qing greets the Island Lord!"

The Blood Crying Immortal standing to the side also quickly paid his respects.

As for why the two addressed Xiu Daozhen as the island lord, it was Xiu Daozhen himself who requested it.
