Chapter 1324: Chapter 784 Meeting the Emperor

"Qixian, under the seat of Emperor Dongji, comes to visit Taixu, my junior brother."

A deep voice echoed among the Lingxu Mountain Range.

A middle-aged Taoist with black and white temples slowly stepped onto the Half-falling Cliff, bowing to the elder in front: "Greetings, Senior Lingxu."

Ordinary disciples seeing a Golden Immortal would usually address them as Uncle or Uncle Master, but Qixian instead used the term "Senior."

Ling Xuzi nodded, not finding it inappropriate.

To be precise, this Qixian superior isn’t considered a fellow senior brother of the other juniors. He belongs to the East Pole Emperor’s Mansion, only taking orders from that sovereign Emperor.

He could meet a First Rank Giant directly, with a status not much different from the Golden Immortals.

His age surpasses that of You Yao, Li Shan, and others by many years. The reason for which he is regarded as a peer by the younger disciples is partly due to his Third Grade Cultivation and his desire to take advantage of a loophole, participating in the great tribulation as a member of the younger generation.

"My disciple is cultivating in the rear mountain; do you have urgent business with him?"

"It’s not something urgent. Qixian knows junior brother’s profound Dao, and I’ve come to seek guidance."

Listening to the courteous words of this junior, Ling Xuzi pondered for a moment, showing some reluctance.

After all, Shen Yi is now quite renowned, and it was thanks to Qing Guangzi’s suppression that he stayed grounded, allowing himself some time to settle.

Now even Qixian wants to visit personally. If this young disciple were really allowed to become smug, how would he still respect this Lingxu Cave?

But refusing would appear somewhat petty.

Ling Xuzi waved his hand: "Go ahead."

"Thank you, Senior."

Qixian stood up, striding towards the rear mountain.

Soon, he saw a familiar face in a quiet cave mansion.

The young man was still sitting cross-legged in a calm demeanor, with gold hairpin fastening his hair, jade belt around his waist, and a black robe making his already fair face appear even more transcendent.

Even the divine abilities previously used to shield his face had long been retracted by now.

Sitting there naturally exuded an air of grandeur and dignity.

Heh... Qixian sneered inwardly; clothes really do make the man, just as saddles make the horse, indeed he’s spruced up well now.

However, this is actually a good thing.

From the haste in changing attire, it is clear that his previous restraint was only for blending into North Continent. Now that he’s gained some power, he’s finding it hard to suppress his true nature.

Combining strong power with meticulous thoughts, this created the Tai Xu True Monarch that astonished the same sect in North Continent. Losing the latter would make him just a reckless man with raw power.

"Tai Xu Junior Brother, we meet again."

Qixian forced a smile, surprisingly lowering himself to greet the other.

He didn’t give Shen Yi a chance to speak, after all, if this person unwisely mentioned the last incident at the Heavenly Tower Mountain, it surely would make him lose face: "You have already reflected in this mountain for several months, it was You Yao’s fault, no need to blame yourself too much. Over in North Continent, the situation is becoming more turbulent, and today I’ve come to invite you to talk on a tour."

"Would you grant me this honor?"

"..."

Shen Yi slowly opened his eyes.

After going through so many things, he was no longer that insect demon disciple with a poor origin, continuing to mingle with the members of the Three Immortals Sect, which had become an unavoidable situation.

After all, to gather information within the sect, he couldn’t rely solely on the path of the Human Emperor.

"Please." Shen Yi nodded slightly.

"Junior brother is straightforward."

Qixian glanced towards the direction of the Half-falling Cliff; today’s discussion couldn’t let that old thing hear.

With this in mind, he turned around with a broad smile, summoning an auspicious cloud and swiftly left the Lingxu Mountain Range with Shen Yi.

"..."

Having had time to digest it, Shen Yi gradually accepted the anomaly that occurred during his promotion to the Second Rank.

Certainly, there’s some disappointment; after all, the allure of being undying and undying to a cultivator isn’t something easily dismissed, even he couldn’t escape convention.

But since it’s already a fact, he could only accept it.

No matter what, he has a Second Rank Boundary and Cultivation. If he feared nothing as a Daluo Immortal before, now possessing Golden Immortal means, he certainly won’t be scared away.

A blessing in disguise, perhaps.

Now, he indeed wanted to know why this traveler under the seat of Emperor Dongji suddenly came to him.

"Junior brother, do you know that chaos in North Continent is becoming increasingly frequent recently?"

After leaving Lingxu Mountain, Qixian finally slowed down, looked back at Shen Yi, and sighed: "Conflicts between fellow members have never stopped. Just a few days ago, there was even a severe fight due to disagreements."

Saying this, he teased with a smile: "These matters aren’t unrelated to you, junior brother."

"Both of us are distinguished in the sect; our every move holds considerable influence. We must guard against setting a bad precedent and should shoulder the responsibility of rectifying the ethos."

"With the situation like this without a decisive entity, how can we gather the strength of the sect members to contest with the monks of the Bodhi Sect?"

Having said this, Qixian stared directly at Shen Yi.

Unexpectedly, the young man’s face showed no change, just lightly said: "I don’t quite understand what you’re saying."

"Tsk."

Qixian wasn’t angry, instead laughing: "My point is, can’t you see that Senior Lingxu doesn’t treat you as a disciple?"

"Just last time at the Heavenly Tower Mountain, Senior Qing Guang treated you this way, and Senior Lingxu’s manner... To speak disrespectfully, if it weren’t for Chi Yun Immortal passing by to help, he might not have the courage to shield you."
