The lecturing of Xu Fang on Penglai Immortal Island also concluded at this moment.
Xu Fang stopped, and the Penglai beings below felt their desire for more, looking up at Xu Fang.
Xu Fang spoke slowly and loudly.
"While the Great Dao is good, one must proceed step by step. The profound daoist methods are beyond your comprehension and would only confuse your dao heart. Thus, we shall end here!"
The Penglai beings heard this and understood the reasoning, nodding in unison and respectfully bowing to Xu Fang.
"We understand, thank you Island Master!"
"Thank you for lecturing us, Island Master. We will certainly cultivate diligently from now on and contribute to you and Penglai!"
"Penglai is our home, and strength comes from everyone!"
One cry led to ten thousand, and Penglai Immortal Island instantly roared with a sound like mountains and seas, reaching the heavens.
The Huang Zhong Li, Liang Tian Chi, and other magical treasures watched the Penglai beings cheering in unison under Xu Fang, sighing with emotion.
They had watched Xu Fang grow, and to finally see him so full of spirit in their lifetime made them feel triumphant.
"Alright, quiet down everyone!"
Xu Fang waved his hand, asking the Penglai beings to quiet down, and spoke loudly.
"In the past, I listened to the Dao in Zixiao Palace. The Dao Ancestor Hongjun distributed treasures, and I obtained quite a few. I can be considered a wealthy individual."
The Penglai beings chuckled in unison upon hearing this.
They had long heard Xu Fang's deeds from Huang Zhong Li. His treasures were not obtained from the distribution but from robbing powerful beings.
However, since Xu Fang did not expose it, they all tacitly understood.
"Now that I am lecturing on Penglai and opening the Great Dao for you, I naturally hope that one day you will become powerful and contribute your strength to the prosperity of Penglai Immortal Island."
"Now that you have all embarked on the path of cultivation, increasing your realms and cultivation is a gradual process. However, magical treasures are also indispensable."
As Xu Fang spoke, he waved his hand, and countless treasures appeared around him, shimmering and eye-catching, instantly drawing everyone's attention.
It was often heard that the Island Master possessed numerous treasures, even the most in the Primordial Era. Seeing them today, the rumors were indeed true!
"Alright, you are all beings of my Penglai. These treasures are bestowed upon you."
Xu Fang announced loudly, making the Penglai beings ecstatic, kneeling and bowing repeatedly.
"Thank you, Island Master, we have no way to repay you, we are willing to die for Penglai!"
"We are in awe of the Island Master's reputation for distributing treasures!"
"Indeed, it has to be the Island Master. We wish to be Penglai beings for generations to come and follow you!"
The Penglai beings were all immensely excited. So many treasures right before their eyes, and the Island Master was giving them all away without batting an eye. How generous!
It was truly fortunate to be born on Penglai Immortal Island. Even cultivation and magical treasures were covered. The benefits and treatment were indeed excellent!
Many beings had already made vows to be Penglai immortals in their next lives!
Xu Fang nodded, quite satisfied, as he watched these excited beings.
After all, these treasures were not of exceptionally high grade, and many had overlapping functions. They were of no use to him. It was better to bestow them upon these Penglai beings.
With their current realms and cultivation, possessing these magical treasures might not be a grand fortune, but it would certainly empower them greatly.
Since they were all beings of Penglai Immortal Island, their strength meant Penglai's strength. It was like keeping the profits within the family.
Seeing the beings gazing at the shimmering treasures, Xu Fang understood their eagerness and waved his hand, saying.
"Alright, there's no need to scramble. Let the treasures choose their own masters. Rest assured, none will be missed. Go!"
Xu Fang commanded, and the treasures floating in the air flew out. The beings, obeying Xu Fang's words, let the treasures hover and dance above their heads, choosing suitable masters.
As the treasures flew out, their light spread, instantly illuminating the entire Penglai Immortal Island with blinding radiance, spirit energy surging, and heavenly secrets in disarray.
Xu Fang took this opportunity to fly directly to the Treasure Distribution Rock, with Huang Zhong Li and the other treasures following.
The Golden-Winged Great Peng Eagle and Duo Bao Dao Ren also intended to fly over but were stopped by Xu Fang.
"We will be discussing matters of Penglai Immortal Island next. You can go explore the island yourselves!"
Hearing Xu Fang's words, the Golden-Winged Great Peng Eagle and the others had no choice but to stop.
Although they had a good relationship with Xu Fang, the matters of Penglai Immortal Island were not solely Xu Fang's concern. They were not Penglai beings, and it was indeed inappropriate for them to hear these discussions.
After bowing in unison, the Golden-Winged Great Peng Eagle and the others descended and began to explore Penglai Immortal Island.
"Little Xu, why are you being so secretive? You won't even let your little followers listen?"
Liang Tian Chi was very curious, wondering what Xu Fang was up to with his mysterious demeanor.
However, this was not important. Liang Tian Chi composed himself and continued.
"Little Xu, you need to be mentally prepared for what's next. According to reliable news, your good friend Dong Wang Gong has been killed by Dong Huang Tai Yi using the Chaos Bell."
"Mm."
Xu Fang nodded, his expression unchanged.
This made Huang Zhong Li and Liang Tian Chi bewildered. The comforting words they had prepared were swallowed back.
"No way? Dong Wang Gong is dead? Did you not hear clearly?"
Liang Tian Chi was surprised, speaking more clearly to remind Xu Fang.
"I know."
Xu Fang still nodded and replied softly, showing no change.
This reaction made Liang Tian Chi even more confused. Was this reaction too calm?
Even a dog, if kept for a long time, would develop feelings. And Dong Wang Gong was a "good friend" whom Xu Fang called out to.
At the very least, Dong Wang Gong was a tenant on Yingzhou Island. With his death, rent collection would cease. Why was there no reaction to such a loss?
"Little Xu, don't be too sad. Everyone has their own fate. Don't force yourself. Cry if you want to cry!"
Huang Zhong Li began to comfort him, reaching out to hug Xu Fang, who quickly dodged.
"Big Sis, everyone has their own fate, but there's also a distinction between men and women. Don't do that!"
Liang Tian Chi and Huang Zhong Li looked at Xu Fang's demeanor and became even more puzzled. They exchanged glances and shook their heads.
Could it be that Dong Wang Gong's departure had struck this young Xu too hard, driving him mad?
Seeing their expressions, Xu Fang naturally understood their thoughts and quickly explained.
"You don't need to worry. I am fine. Nothing is wrong."
"I know Dong Wang Gong is dead. I also know that Dong Wang Gong is dead, but not entirely dead."
When Xu Fang said this, Liang Tian Chi and Huang Zhong Li's faces changed even more drastically.
He was still fine?
This was a huge matter. What did he mean by "dead, but not entirely dead"? If he wasn't crazy, how could he say such crazy things?
