After the Heavenly Emperor left, the great master from the Jingang Temple appeared beside Daozi. "Did you really use Profound Sage Tyrannical Song to dupe the Heavenly Emperor? When did you even get the time to plan for something like that?"
"I was lying," Daozi replied. "I was busy dealing with that Immortal from the Heavenly City, so how could I have the time to lay a trap for the Heavenly Emperor? Although I don't know what happened to the Heavenly Emperor, I acted like I had something to do with it in order to appear more threatening than I was. But in the end, it fired back."
After Song Shuhang went to carry out the transaction with the Heavenly Emperor, he had been following them so that he could take action if needed.
However, the Heavenly Emperor suddenly entered the Inner World with Song Shuhang. Since the Inner World was Song Shuhang's private world, he could not break in and was forced to wait outside.
