After a round of pleasantries that left Xiang Tianwen and Elder Ye trembling with fear, Gu Qingfeng successfully joined their group.
He boarded their treasure ship.
He did not plan to ride the White Bone Blood Boat anymore, afraid that someone observant might recognize it.
Naturally, Yan Lingxue was also brought along.
When Xiang Tianwen and Elder Ye first saw Yan Lingxue, they were immediately stunned, viewing her as a heavenly being. With skin as white as snow, picturesque features, and an otherworldly temperament, she could be described as having skin of ice and bones of jade—a truly peerless beauty.
However, the two did not dare to look too much, afraid of angering Daoist Qingfeng.
Just like that, the group set off together toward the Immortal King Assembly.
Gu Qingfeng planned to pull off a small heist at the Immortal King Assembly before searching for a Half-Step Immortal Lord. Since he had gone through the trouble of coming here, he couldn't just leave empty-handed, right?
Having learned his lesson from Hua Caiyu, Gu Qingfeng did not relax his guard against Xiang Tianwen and Elder Ye. He planted numerous restrictive seals on them; if the two dared to send a warning to anyone, they would immediately die and their cultivation would be wiped out.
A few days later.
An ancient and towering giant city appeared before their eyes.
This city stood above the River of Laws, seemingly eternal, exuding an ancient and weathered aura.
The city was comparable to a small world. Not only did it have densely packed ancient buildings and crisscrossing streets, but it also contained mountains, rivers, and more.
These things shouldn't naturally exist above the River of Laws. Clearly, a mighty figure had used great supernatural powers to move them here from elsewhere.
Daoist Qingfeng, this is the final stop before the Immortal Fallen Battlefield, the Ancient Immortal City. Passing through this city leads to the battlefield, and this time's Immortal King Assembly is being held right here in the Ancient Immortal City, Xiang Tianwen introduced with a normal expression.
Although he was still trembling with fear while facing Gu Qingfeng, he dared not show it in the slightest.
Because Gu Qingfeng had said that if anyone noticed even the slightest flaw, he would be killed on the spot.
For the sake of his little life, his acting skills had successfully reached the level of an award-winning actor in just a few short days.
What a majestic and towering ancient city. I heard that this Immortal King Assembly gathers the prodigies of various domains and the heroes of the world. My trip here is the perfect opportunity to witness the peerless elegance of the world's heroes, Gu Qingfeng said with a look of fascination.
Xiang Tianwen: ......
Elder Ye's body trembled. He didn't dare to speak and continued to silently steer the ship onward.
Yan Lingxue rolled her eyes, her heart full of complaints.
Are you trying to witness their peerless elegance? I'm too embarrassed to even expose you; you clearly just covet their cultivation bases.
Soon, the group entered the Ancient Immortal City.
Once inside the city, the snake-shaped treasure ship floated three feet off the ground, flying through the air and weaving between the streets.
The city was incredibly bustling, with an endless stream of immortals coming and going.
The poorer ones flew on swords, while the wealthier ones mostly rode in treasure carriages or ships, and some even rode immortal beasts.
Biluo Lake.
A heavenly paradise within the Ancient Immortal City, enveloped in immortal mist with beautiful scenery. Biluo meant the sky, implying that the lake's water was as clear as the heavens above.
And this place was exactly where the Immortal King Assembly was being held.
Today, Biluo Lake was extremely lively. Immortals from all over arrived one after another; some came from major star ruins, while others resided above the River of Laws. From time to time, dazzling streaks of light whistled over from different directions, heading straight for Biluo Lake.
In the center of Biluo Lake, towering palaces with antique charm and simple, elegant gardens had been built. Immortal beasts fluttered among them, making it look like a fairyland on earth.
Gu Qingfeng's group headed toward Biluo Lake. Along the way, they encountered countless immortals, but not a single one could see through Gu Qingfeng's disguise. Not many people paid attention to him; instead, countless gazes were focused on Yan Lingxue.
A snowy-fleshed beauty like her was rare in the world to begin with. Her appearance and figure were top-tier, but the most precious thing was her temperament—an otherworldly, fairy-like aura. After all, as a Half-Step Immortal Lord expert, her temperament was naturally extraordinary.
Who knows how many wicked people were thinking about doing unspeakable things to such a cold and aloof fairy, just to enjoy the sight of her in a flustered state.
Although people were eyeing Yan Lingxue, no one dared to step forward because the grand banner of the Sun-Concealing Sect was displayed there, which still carried a lot of deterrent power.
Moreover, Xiang Tianwen seemed to have some fame, as quite a few people greeted him along the way.
Gu Qingfeng asked with interest, It seems that among the prodigies, you are also quite an outstanding figure.
Xiang Tianwen hurriedly replied in a nervous tone, Just a slight reputation, not worth mentioning.
He was terrified of being targeted and devoured by Gu Qingfeng.
Legend had it that the World-Destroying Demon Emperor loved devouring experts the most.
Gu Qingfeng's gaze instantly turned cold as he sent a voice transmission, My current identity is a rogue cultivator wandering the four corners of the world. As the dignified heir of the Sun-Concealing Sect, is this the attitude you show a rogue cultivator?
Xiang Tianwen's liver trembled. He quickly restored his calm and breezy demeanor, his face even carrying a faint arrogance unique to a prodigy.
Only then did Gu Qingfeng nod in satisfaction.
Right at this moment.
Screech!
The sound of braking rang out.
An ancient black-scaled war chariot whistled over from the side, directly blocking the path of the snake-shaped treasure ship.
Standing on the chariot was a tall man wearing black dragon scale armor. His hair draped loosely over his shoulders, and his eyes were ostentatious and domineering.
Xiang Tianwen, you defeated opponent, what face do you have to attend the Immortal King Assembly?
The black-armored man looked at Xiang Tianwen with a mocking expression. His eyes occasionally drifted toward Yan Lingxue on the side, flashing with a hint of astonishment at her beauty.
Xiang Tianwen's face immediately darkened, though internally he was in a state of extreme panic.
He hadn't expected someone to come looking for trouble at a time like this.
For prodigies like them, competition among peers and ensuing friction was a common occurrence. After all, cultivation was a battle for the Great Dao.
If it were normal times, he wouldn't mind. But the World-Destroying Demon Emperor was right beside him in disguise. Don't drag me down with you!
If this angered the Demon Emperor, what was he supposed to do?
Not wanting to provoke a dispute, Xiang Tianwen hurriedly said, Wan Tiancheng! You only won by a fluke once before. Today, this young master has important matters to attend to and won't argue with you. Move aside at once.
The black-armored man, Wan Tiancheng, mocked, Are you scared?
Hmph, why would this young master be afraid of you? It's just that I have business right now. If you want to fight, I will naturally fight you to my heart's content during the Immortal King Assembly!
Hahaha... Wan Tiancheng laughed wildly. Saying all that, aren't you just scared? Fine, considering our two families are well-acquainted, this young master won't make things difficult for you. As long as you obediently offer up the maidservant beside you, I'll let you pass. How about it?
As soon as these words were spoken, Xiang Tianwen's expression changed drastically, because the maidservant Wan Tiancheng was referring to was none other than Yan Lingxue.
At this time, Yan Lingxue had not yet recovered her cultivation, and the aura she displayed was merely at the True Immortal realm.
Following a Quasi-Immortal King like Xiang Tianwen with a True Immortal realm cultivation, what else could she be but a maidservant?
At this moment, Xiang Tianwen panicked a little, because he knew that this woman was the World-Destroying Demon Emperor's woman.
Trying to snatch his woman right in front of the World-Destroying Demon Emperor... wasn't this like an old man eating arsenic, tired of living?
The key point was, if it were anyone else, it might be fine. But this was the World-Destroying Demon Emperor, someone so brutal he was known as the Number One Demon of All Eternity!
If this vicious demon got angry, Wan Tiancheng's death would be a small matter. Just don't drag the entire Ancient Immortal City down to be buried with you!
Xiang Tianwen cautiously glanced at Gu Qingfeng and noticed that there was no anger on his face; instead, he wore a smile full of interest. Only then did Xiang Tianwen breathe a slight sigh of relief.
Thank goodness, thank goodness. As long as there was no outburst, everything was fine.
Gu Qingfeng was not angry in the slightest. Instead, he only found it novel, because he was usually the one snatching other men's women. No one had ever dared to speak to him like this to his face.
Now, with the roles reversed, he felt a surreal, fleeting sensation of finally enjoying the classic treatment of a true protagonist.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
