Radiant Flame Minor Realm, Wuming Heavenly Mansion. Wu Jiao strode over the waves. As he walked, his two sleeves billowed in the wind, and white surf crashed onto the shore on either side.
Within the water, fish scattered in a panic, leaping from the surface from time to time. The person on the shore reeled in his fishing rod, showing no sign of displeasure on his face.
After handing all his things to the Dao child with the horsetail whisk beside him, he asked with a smile, "You beast, what is it this time? Rushing about so frantically, you've scared all the fish away."
"Good news! Good news!"
Wu Jiao could not hide his delight. He leaped into the water and instantly transformed into a giant, inky-black jiao, speaking in a human voice, "I have found a fine apprentice, very much like myself, also possessing a Spirit-Merged Body. I came specifically to report this to the Sect Master.
When the master-disciple ceremony is held, you elders cannot be stingy." It turned out this fisherman was none other than the Sect Master of the Radiant Flame Immortal Sect in the Lofty Skies World, Shi Xiangyuan. His face was that of a man in his thirties, with a long beard and slightly full cheeks, his forehead broad and high.
