Fox Demon: Heaven rewards diligence; I will eventually achieve divine mastery of martial arts.

His emaciated body gave people a sense of weakness, as if he was about to die.

Dongfang Qinlan tiptoed behind her, carefully pushing the wheelchair into the yard.

Approaching Lin Yu, Dongfang Guyue smiled gently at him, then struggled to get up and bow to him.

Seeing this, Lin Yu naturally couldn't continue.

He treated all enemies equally, regardless of age or gender, and remained indifferent to them.

But when interacting with others, Lin Yu considers himself to be someone who grew up under the red flag.

It's really not right for someone of such advanced age to bow to you.

Lin Yu stepped forward and reached out to help Dongfang Guyue up, but saw him smile, cup his hands and say, "This old man is Dongfang Guyue, paying respects to King Wu."

Upon hearing Dongfang Guyue's words, Lin Yu was slightly taken aback, but he did not try to dissuade him further. Instead, he silently accepted the bow.

Dongfang Huaizhu and Dongfang Qinlan, who were standing to the side, did not stop them, but silently bowed as well.

Given Lin Yu's current status and position, even if they had a good relationship in the past, they still need to show him the proper etiquette.

Moreover, the person Dongfang Guyue worships is not only Lin Yu, but also the current ruler of the human race, the one who has brought peace between humans and demons to the entire circle.

Both morally and logically, Lin Yu deserves this bow.

After the ceremony, Lin Yu helped Dongfang Guyue up and smiled.

"You're too kind, Master Zhuang. This is Tushan, so there's no need for titles like King Wu."

Hearing Lin Yu's words, Dongfang Guyue seemed quite happy, her smile was very kind, and her eyes were full of undisguised admiration as she looked at Lin Yu.

"Huaizhu, quickly pour some tea."

Huai Zhu responded gently and went to prepare with a smile.

Meanwhile, Cuiyu Xiaotan pulled out a pastry from somewhere, placed it on the table with a smile, and picked up a piece to feed Dongfang Guyue.

"Grandpa Lonely Moon, these are some new pastries, please try them."

"Good good."

Dongfang Guyue smiled brightly and happily accepted the pastries from Cuiyu Xiaotan, just like an old man simply enjoying the joys of family life.

Dongfang Huaizhu came over with tea and poured tea for the group.

Seeing that Dongfang Guyue seemed quite energetic, Lin Yu asked.

"How is the old master's health recovering?"

"Clan Chief Cuiyu truly lives up to her reputation as a medical master. I am deeply grateful that she was able to save me even in this condition."

Speaking of this matter, Dongfang Guyue said with emotion, "After so long of recuperation, I have recovered quite a bit, but my cultivation has been almost completely destroyed."

While Pure Yang Flame primarily requires bloodline, one's own magical power is what ensures the energy consumed when releasing it.

Although Dongfang Guyue's bloodline is still intact, his magical power is almost gone.

He survived, but became a cripple.

It can only be said that this was my fate.

"But I'm already quite old, it's lucky that I've survived."

"Besides, you've taken care of all those bastards in the South, so I have nothing to worry about."

When the Southern Kingdom was mentioned, Dongfang Guyue's face turned noticeably rosy.

He looked just like a veteran who had fought his way out of the battlefield, and the light in his eyes was hard to hide.

Clearly, the conflict between Dongfang Guyue and the Southern Kingdom's demon clan has been fraught with bloodshed and turmoil.

"It's a pity I wasn't there at the time. If I could have seen that scene, I wouldn't have any regrets even if I had been annihilated on the spot!"

Dongfang Guyue shook her head and sighed, her face full of regret.

Seeing the other person like this, Lin Yu felt a pang of emotion.

Having gone through so much, betrayed by the disciple he treated as his son, he almost lost his life.

However, Dongfang Guyue remained cheerful and optimistic, seemingly unaffected.

"If you just want to see what it's like, there's still a chance."

"Many of the monks in the fortress recorded it with a recording stone."

Lin Yu said to Dongfang Guyue with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, Dongfang Guyue's eyes lit up.

"Okay, great!"

Dongfang Guyue's voice rang out excitedly.

In the first half of her life, Dongfang Guyue betrayed the Dongfang Ling Clan for the sake of her lover.

Later, in his middle age, he devoted almost all his energy to dealing with the demons of the Southern Kingdom.

This led to the oversight of Jin Renfeng and the supervision of the Dongfang Huaizhu sisters' cultivation.

It can be said that he devoted almost all of his later life to protecting the human people from the scourge of the demon race in the south.

If he could see the impact of that great battle in the Southern Kingdom, it would fulfill a wish he had held for many years.

"To be able to see this, I could die without regrets!"

Dongfang Guyue, his wrinkled, aged hands unable to resist patting the armrest of his wheelchair, spoke excitedly.

"father."

Dongfang Huaizhu reached out and gently patted Dongfang Guyue's back to prevent him from getting too excited.

After all, he's already this old, and his strength has declined significantly. Getting too excited would be bad for his health.

"Since the old master is interested, I will have someone send it over."

This was a trivial matter for Lin Yu; it was just a matter of a word. With the Thousand-Mile Tracking Talisman, it was extremely convenient.

"It's no trouble for you."

"I don't know what to say about my old bones. They say fallen leaves return to their roots, and Shenhuo Mountain Manor has been around for so many years, so it can be considered half a home."

Lin Yu looked at Dongfang Huaizhu, understanding Dongfang Guyue's meaning.

Dongfang Huaizhu nodded gently and said helplessly, "My father is planning to go back and take a look at the border of the Southern Kingdom. If he can take a trip around their capital, that would be even better."

Dongfang Guyue stroked his beard, a broad smile on his face, with a hint of smugness in his expression.

"That old bastard Huan Du Qingtian would never have imagined that I, Dongfang Guyue, would one day be able to stroll around their capital with such ease."

As he spoke, Dongfang Guyue's expression turned slightly serious. With his withered hands, he took out a secret manual from his bosom and handed it to Lin Yu.

"This is the method of manipulating pure Yang Flame that my daughter promised before."

"It was prepared beforehand, but I just never had the chance to give it to you."

"I originally intended to give it to Miss Honghong, but she insisted on giving it to you."

Lin Yu looked at the manual in Dongfang Guyue's hand with a complicated expression.

Back then, it was precisely because of this condition that he stepped in to save the Huai Zhu sisters, and he also considered the problems with Feng Qi, wanting to find a way to strengthen her.

Now that so much time has passed and the Pure Yang Flame Technique has been obtained, Feng Qi's problems are still unresolved.

"Good work."

Lin Yu took the manual and nodded.

"We are the ones who should be thanking you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid we would be in trouble now."

Dongfang Guyue shook his head as he spoke, not finishing his sentence, but the rest of his words were self-evident.

When are you planning to leave?

The atmosphere became slightly somber when Jin Renfeng was mentioned.

Lin Yu broke the ice by speaking first.

"Tomorrow."

Dongfang Guyue smiled and reached out to pat Cuiyu Xiaotan's head.

"We've already bothered you long enough. If we continue to cause trouble, it won't be fair."

Lin Yu nodded, "In that case, we'll make the arrangements. At least the trip to the Southern Kingdom won't disappoint the old master."

Lin Yu had great respect for this old man who had fought against the demons of the Southern Kingdom for most of his life and never participated in the infighting and power struggles within the Dao Alliance.

At least if it were him, he would definitely not be able to make such a selfless contribution.

Making arrangements is just a matter of a few words, and Lin Yu is willing to make that effort.

Dongfang Guyue did not refuse anything this time, because he was very clear about the situation.

I am not the same person I used to be.

They have absolutely no strength, not to mention Dongfang Huaizhu and Dongfang Qinlan.

It's actually quite unsafe to walk around outside like that.
