Looking at the once-grand Eternal Immortal Continent, Jiang Zhi's eyes sparkled with sharpness.
"Prepare to enter the city."
"But be extremely cautious, Zeng Rentu can't possibly be unaware that I've returned."
"So there must be a significant trap laid out within the city."
"So proceed with utmost caution."
Jiang Zhi instructed.
Although she had two powerful cards up her sleeve, she still wanted to rely on her own strength for revenge.
Upon hearing this.
Jiang Zhi's many subordinates tensed up, each showing a look of determination to die if necessary.
Among them, one person sneered coldly and quietly crushed a jade slip.
A moment later.
A group of people cautiously infiltrated the city.
But as soon as they entered...
"Bang!"
A sharp sound of a ceremonial cannon echoed, and fireworks scattered in all directions.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
One sound had barely subsided when another began.
After the cannon salute, there was the noisy sound of firecrackers.
Accompanied by the firecrackers.
Two giant dragon dances wagged their tails as they emerged from two main streets.
Following the dragon dances, there were over a dozen lion dances.
The sound of gongs and drums, the sky filled with firecrackers.
Then, countless people surged from all directions.
Some held small colored flags.
Some pulled banners.
In almost no time, they surrounded Jiang Zhi and her group.
Not long after.
Huang Qingtian descended from the sky, bent over with a baton in hand, shouting loudly, "Come on, let's go."
As his voice fell.
A group of beautifully dressed women formed a drum team behind Huang Qingtian, with him at the head, wearing rouge, dancing with a mesmerizing step, twisting around.
At the same time.
A huge banner was unfurled from the largest building in the city.
"Welcome the great Jiang Zhi, the ruler of Eternal Immortal Continent, back to the Eternal Immortal Continent!"
Jiang Zhi was dumbfounded.
Her face was filled with bewilderment.
Her subordinates were equally confused, scratching their heads in confusion.
This...
What's going on?
Isn't this a trap?
Isn't this supposed to be a fierce battle?
But while still in a daze, a group of ethereal-looking women approached and put a collar around each of their necks.
This made them even more bewildered.
They had come back for revenge, so why did it feel like a triumphant return?
For a moment, they stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do.
"Could there be a trick?"
One of the subordinates asked.
"This, I don't know either!"
Unconsciously, all the subordinates turned their eyes towards Jiang Zhi.
Jiang Zhi rubbed her forehead.
She was more bewildered than anyone else right now.
"Oh, may I ask if this is the great Jiang Zhi, the ruler of Eternal Immortal Continent?"
At this moment, Huang Qingtian and Li Hongtian, bowing and scraping, approached Jiang Zhi together.
"Who are you?"
Jiang Zhi looked at the two with caution.
"I am Huang Qingtian from the Desolate Immortal Continent."
"I am Li Hongtian from the Xining Immortal Continent."
"Greetings, Jiang Zhi, the ruler of Eternal Immortal Continent."
The two spoke in unison.
Upon hearing this.
Jiang Zhi, along with her group of subordinates, were also greatly shocked.
"Desolate, the ruler of the Desolate Continent?"
"You are the father-in-law of Zeng Rentu?"
Jiang Zhi involuntarily took two steps back, her expression becoming even more vigilant.
"Oh, Jiang Zhi, the ruler of Eternal Immortal Continent, where are you getting this from? How could I be the father-in-law of Zeng Rentu?" Huang Qingtian bowed and scraped, saying, "To be honest, it was Zeng Rentu who deceived my innocent daughter."
"Of course, that's still a minor matter, what's even more intolerable is that he actually plotted to usurp the throne when you, Jiang Zhi, the ruler of Eternal Immortal Continent, were not in the Eternal Immortal Continent."
"He truly deserves to die!"
"That's right, I learned of this matter and dealt with it promptly, I've already crippled Zeng Rentu's cultivation and captured him, he's waiting for your judgment in the ruler's mansion!"
Huang Qingtian's words.
Left Jiang Zhi and her group in a daze.
Jiang Zhi's expression was even more complicated.
She was still thinking about how to deal with Zeng Rentu, but he had already been crippled as soon as they entered the city gates?
"Huang, the ruler of the Desolate Continent, if I remember correctly, your Desolate Immortal Continent is one of the Middle Three Continents."
"I, Jiang Zhi, was at most a ruler of one of the Lower Three Continents before, so why are you treating me with such respect?" Jiang Zhi couldn't help but ask.
"Jiang Zhi, the ruler of Eternal Immortal Continent, what are you saying? Is there a difference between the Middle Three Continents and the Lower Three Continents?"
"No difference."
Li Hongtian chimed in.
"Does it hinder my admiration for you?"
"It doesn't."
Li Hongtian chimed in again.
"Then that's it?"
Huang Qingtian clapped his hands, revealing the broken teeth from being splashed by a bucket of excrement, and said with a grin, "You don't know, I've admired you since you were in diapers... no, since I was in diapers."
Jiang Zhi looked at the two.
They showed no sign of hostility, although they were flattering, their subtle expressions told her that these two were not deceitful.
"Alright, take me to see Zeng Rentu!"
Jiang Zhi said.
"Hehe, we'll take you there right away."
Li Hongtian and Huang Qingtian, one in front and one behind, excitedly said, while their heads turned to look around.
"By the way, Jiang Zhi, the ruler of Eternal Immortal Continent, I heard you brought back two Human Immortals, may I ask where those two Human Immortal seniors are?"
The two asked with a smile.
This question immediately made Jiang Zhi aware of something.
Human Immortals?
She instantly understood.
Perhaps these two had learned of the terror of the "Human Immortals" through some channels, which was why they had become like this.
If so, it indeed made sense.
"How did you know?"
Jiang Zhi's sharp gaze fell on the two.
The two stiffened and quickly explained, "Lu Chong is my big brother!"
"Lu Chong?"
Jiang Zhi frowned, but she didn't recognize him.
"Lu Ge said he's a member of the manure brigade in your place." Li Hongtian quickly explained.
"A subordinate of Steward Lu..."
Jiang Zhi's eyebrows moved slightly.
If he was a subordinate of Steward Lu, then it made sense that she didn't recognize him, and they knew about the manure brigade, so it seemed they did have connections with people on the island.
"Oh, and Gong Chen, big brother." Li Hongtian added.
"Gong Chen?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi's expression completely relaxed.
She naturally recognized Gong Chen, and it was thanks to Gong Chen that she was able to become one of the subordinates of the master.
So it seemed.
The two were indeed not enemies.
"It seems we are one family." Jiang Zhi said with a relaxed expression.
"Yes, yes, one family."
The two were overjoyed, bowing and scraping.
"This is Senior Lu and Senior Wu."
Jiang Zhi introduced.
"Greetings to the two seniors."
Upon hearing this, Li Hongtian and Huang Qingtian quickly turned their gaze to Lu Qingshan and Wu Yonghong.
After exchanging greetings, Huang Qingtian transmitted his voice, asking, "Lao Li, can you see any clues?"
"I can't see anything, they are completely like Human Immortals."
Li Hongtian transmitted his voice in response.
The two looked puzzled.
Even if their cultivation was suppressed, there shouldn't be no clues at all.
"Don't look, we two old men are just Human Immortals, there's nothing to see."
It seemed that they had seen through the two's thoughts, Wu Yonghong and Lu Qingshan stroked their beards and smiled faintly.
lanned to earn money steadily and take life at a slower pace. But he never expected... his father's remarriage, and the stepmother bringing along a dependent, would completely disrupt his life's plans...
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
