Chapter 1248: Chapter 1196 - Chapter 1197 The Scheme of the Witch God, Intending to Open up the Netherworld_2

```

However, unbeknownst to others, on this ordinary day, the Witch God Sect Leader, together with the powers of Heaven following Hou Tu, the Emperor of Earth, as well as the Witch God Ju Mang and Wu Shijiu and Zhu Jiuyin of the Witch God Sect, quietly arrived at Shenxiao Mountain and secretly visited the Longevity Taoist Monarch.

"My guests have traveled far; I apologize for not having greeted you from a distance." Pei Xuanjing held the Jade Ruyi in his hands, his lips curling into a smile as he looked at the four individuals before him.

"The Church Master presumes to visit unannounced, and I hope the Taoist Monarch will forgive me," the Witch God Sect Leader said with a smile.

"We have seen the Taoist Monarch," the other three accorded with the same respectful address.

At the Realm Pei Xuanjing had reached, only established True Immortals like the Witch God Sect Leader could afford to adopt somewhat of a 'Taoist Friend' stance in his presence.
