But...
If his True Listening spell truly were broken, he'd be in trouble.
What should he do?
Run!
The first thing that came to Mountain Lord's mind was to escape.
If his True Listening spell was useless, he couldn't handle these Innate Divine Beings at all, and they could easily capture him.
He must flee.
But where to flee?
To where should he escape?
The Mortal Realm?
The Mortal Realm is the place the Celestial Court values most, he can't go there.
The Northern State is where the Xuantan Hai Hui Mighty Spirit Heavenly Lord hails from, and he had personally made that Heavenly Lord into the Northern King, going there would mean death.
He could only go to Xizhou.
Xizhou is currently in chaos; although Celestial Soldiers are suppressing it, they haven't fully contained the situation.
Once he reached Xizhou, he could hide first and wait for those five Innate Divine Beings to leave.
