Everlasting Immortal Firmament Book 06 Chapter 070: Heavenly Souls Return

“I’d been waiting for a long time already. I was starting to think you wouldn’t show up,” Guan Ninth said with a smile.

“How can that be? Gu Hai remembers our promise with Ninth Young Master back then. Gu Hai will do our best as long as we are capable of it,” Gu Hai retorted gravely.

Guan Ninth inwardly released his bated breath. “Many thanks, Imperial Emperor Gu. Rest assured as well. I will do my best to obtain Chen Xianer’s heavenly soul for you.”

“Many thanks,” Gu Hai said.

“Aside from Imperial Emperor Gu, I have also made promises to some other people in exchange for their help. I hope Imperial Emperor Gu will not mind. The requests that I agreed to do not conflict with yours,” Ninth Young Master said gravely.

“Oh?” Gu Hai’s expression changed.

“The two sect masters there and the three imperial emperors there have reached an understanding with me. When the pavilion master returns to life, he will bring back all the heavenly souls from the past eight hundred years,” Ninth Young Master added gravely.

“Ninth Young Master, there’s no need to worry. Having more people to help you is a good thing. I naturally do not mind.” Gu Hai smiled.

“When will Old Mister Guan Qi come back to life?” Mo Yike asked with some misgivings.

Ninth Young Master glanced at the nearby Guan Qi Hall.

“There is still some time. Imperial Emperor Gu, do you see that Guan Qi Hall?” Ninth Young Master asked.

Gu Hai nodded.

“There is a coffin in Guan Qi Hall. A Go board hovers above the coffin. That Go board used to be covered in black Go stones. Back then, the pavilion master shattered the Heavenly Go Stone and forged its shards into treasures, scattering them all over the world to collect Go skills. As the Go skills accumulated, the black Go stones became white Go stones. When all the Go stones turn white, the pavilion master will revive,” Ninth Young Master explained.

“Oh? Collect Go skills?” Gu Hai frowned slightly.

“Indeed. Everything was already in order. However, there was an accident. What did Imperial Emperor Gu encounter when you reached the Innate Realm and entered the Innate Puzzle World? Once, the Go skills accumulated too quickly, and the Go stone in the nine-five position exploded,” Ninth Young Master asked, frowning.
