Wanling Country spent five years instilling the laws of Immortal Dao in the Southern Continent.

In the sixth year, during the plum rain season, a caravan from the Western Continent sailed into Bai Yue lands.

"I don't like the air here."

Lady Earth Flow combed her own fur and said, "It's too damp here."

The scorpion demoness, who was sewing shoes, nodded.

"Sister, once we finish this job, will the Immortal really give us Ginsengfruit?"

The scorpion demoness asked.

"The Immortal will not go back on his word."

Lady Earth Flow had just finished speaking when the carriage suddenly came to a stop.

"Two noble ladies, we have arrived at the Royal Palace."

The carriage driver said.

"Sister."

The scorpion demoness quickly finished sewing the shoes and handed them to Lady Earth Flow.

Lady Earth Flow put on the shoes and, along with her sister, stepped out of the carriage, looking toward the Royal Palace in front of them.

The Royal Palace was magnificent, the palace of the Crown Prince of the Southern Continent in Bai Yue lands.

Human King Liu Che had reigned for more than ten years before he had this Crown Prince and once cherished him greatly.

However, after the Crown Prince grew up, he was too benevolent and lenient, warm and cautious, and the Human King felt he was unlike himself, so he sent him to Bai Yue lands.

Nowadays, Bai Yue lands are governed by the Crown Prince and are one of the largest forces in the Southern Continent.

"This Crown Prince has a personality similar to the previous two monarchs and is fond of our Wanling Country."

Lady Earth Flow said, "We shall treat him warmly and will surely be able to win him over."

"What sister says is true."

The scorpion demoness nodded in agreement.

Lady Earth Flow then instructed the Independent Immortals who accompanied them to go to the carriage at the rear to wake up a young man.

"That guy's a mute, why did Miss Ao Luan say he could persuade the Human King?"

The scorpion demoness asked in a low voice.

"I don't understand either."

Lady Earth Flow shook her head: "But I believe Miss Ao Luan won't make a mistake."

The changes in the Southern Continent over the past five years had already proven Ao Luan's wisdom.

After the young man got off the carriage, the two demonesses took him and headed towards the Royal Palace.

However, at this moment, several streaks of white light suddenly descended from the sky, blocking their path.

They were Immortals.

"Respected Immortal Lords."

Lady Earth Flow was the first to speak: "Are you also here for the Crown Prince?"

"This is none of your business."

The Immortals said coldly: "Leave the Southern Continent with your caravan immediately before we take action, demon!"

Naturally, Lady Earth Flow didn't agree: "I refuse."

The two parties began a standoff.

No one wanted to be the first to enter the Royal Palace.

At this time, the gates of the Royal Palace slowly opened.

Ministers and generals escorted a group of Taoists out of the Royal Palace.

The scorpion demoness looked over: "Why is he here?"

"When we entered the city, the city gates were besieged."

Lady Earth Flow looked at the young man among the Taoists: "I should have guessed he was here."

That was a legendary young man; for five years, he led the Taoists in acts of charity everywhere, traversing the Southern Continent with his footsteps, deeply loved by mortals, and even nicknamed a Saint.

"This Wu Xing..."

The scorpion demoness asked: "Could he also be here for the Crown Prince?"

The Immortals were taken aback.

"He shouldn't be."

Lady Earth Flow appeared very calm.

During the young man's travels, he often talked about the Wanling Immortal Path to various forces, and being summoned was nothing unusual.

The young man approached.

Upon seeing Lady Earth Flow, he took out a notebook from his sleeve and passed it to her.

Lady Earth Flow accepted the notebook.

It was a research notebook about Wanling Immortal Path.

Starting four years ago, Wu Xing no longer obeyed Ao Luan's commands but also didn't interfere with Wanling Country's actions.

He had his research notes sent back to Wanling Country; considering this, Ao Luan did not treat him as an enemy.

The Immortals also placed great importance on Wu Xing's notes.

They were somewhat displeased to see the young man hand the book over to Lady Earth Flow.

Just as they were about to do something, a middle-aged man stood by the young man's side.

Reluctantly, the Immortals gave up.

Since Emperor Qinghua was doing acts of kindness with Wu Xing, it was difficult for the Immortals to take action.

For this reason, Wu Xing moved between humans, Immortals, and Demons, and over four years, he managed not to offend anyone.

"Please take it back to the Western Continent."

Sun Wukong said to Lady Earth Flow after handing over the book.

Lady Earth Flow nodded.

Sun Wukong did not linger, waving his hand to leave with the Taoists, brushing past the young man.

Almost simultaneously, both of them shuddered.

The young man looked at Sun Wukong in astonishment.

Sun Wukong also looked at him in surprise, then cracked a slight smile.

The young man was stunned for a moment, then a hint of joy appeared in his eyes.

Sun Wukong took long strides and walked away from his side.

"What did he look at you for?"

Lady Earth Flow asked the young man.

The young man shook his head and said nothing.

Sun Wukong and Emperor Qinghua left the Royal Palace and spoke: "We can establish the Spiritual Network now."

"Why so soon?"

One of the Taoists was surprised: "Don't we need to win over the Crown Prince?"

"No need."

Sun Wukong shook his head: "The Spiritual Network cannot be hidden for too long; if we do not establish it now, it will be discovered."

He had spent four years creating a brand new Spiritual Network system, and it was about time to take action.

The chess pieces of both Heavenly Palace and Wanling Country entered the Royal Palace.

But in the end, neither managed to win over the Crown Prince.

Two years later, the nature's spiritual energy of the Southern Continent began to flow.

Although this flow was very small, it was immediately noticed by Wanling Country and Heavenly Palace.

"An unseen Spiritual Network."

In the Wanling Hall, Ao Luan crushed the letter in her hand.

"So that's it..."

She understood, Wu Xing's goal was to establish a Spiritual Network in the Southern Continent.

But she had not noticed it all along.

"How on earth did he do it?"

Ao Luan had been vigilant towards Wu Xing, but had no news of him placing any nodes.

Without nodes, it implied one thing.

The Spiritual Network Wu Xing was building utilized technology Wanling Country did not possess.

"I must get hold of the Spiritual Network."

Ao Luan promptly made her decision.

In Heavenly Palace, the Jade Emperor also received the intelligence about the Spiritual Network.

He was surprised that on the chessboard of the Southern Continent, an unexpected player had emerged.

"Your Majesty."

Gold Star Taibai bowed and inquired: "That Wu Xing..."

"He has outwitted us."

The Jade Emperor felt deeply: "Such a simple scheme, yet it remained concealed for six years."

"Your Majesty, that Fairy must have also received the news."

Gold Star Taibai said: "We cannot let her take away the Spiritual Network."

The Jade Emperor nodded.

That little girl was no simple matter.

His brow furrowed slightly as he paced.

The Jade Emperor was astonished by Emperor Qinghua's actions; he had been by Wu Xing's side all along and had disregarded the commands from Heavenly Palace.

This not only made it difficult for Heavenly Palace to take action but also made the Jade Emperor suspect that Emperor Qinghua was using Wu Xing's power to oppose his plans in the Southern Continent.

"Qinghua is too soft-hearted."

The Jade Emperor made a decision.

He must obtain or prevent the completion of the Spiritual Network.

Even if it were Emperor Qinghua, he should not let a moment of compassion disrupt the grand scheme of Heavenly Palace.
