Part 2] It wasn’t long before someone hurried in to report that the immortals from the Sea Watch Sect had no intention of leaving and had already sent out dozens of Jade Talismans toward the East Sea.

Clearly, the Sea Watch Sect couldn’t back down and was rallying troops, preparing to wage a massive battle with the Wanyun Sect.

Xu Sheng’s expression darkened as he cursed, “Let them cause trouble if they dare!

I’ll expose all of Meng Dezhang’s misdeeds!”

Li Dazhi asked, “Who is Meng Dezhang?”

“The founding patriarch of the Sea Watch Sect!”

Xu Sheng huffed,

“That old guy owes me so many favors.

If he shows no regard for our past today, I truly won’t be polite with him!”

“Alas!

“If only I could take that final step!

If I had ascended to the realm of a Golden Immortal, how could I let them be so rampant!”

——The Sea Watch Sect didn’t give any face, and Xu Sheng was truly annoyed.

“Don’t worry, senior, don’t worry.

The Wanyun Sect has also been joined by an Ancestor, and the Ancestor is hiding outside the sect gate.”

Li Dazhi squinted and smiled, yet deep down he was secretly pondering.

Xu Sheng, the senior, is only a step away from Golden Immortal?

If that’s the case…hiss!

Isn’t this the opportunity for Ping’an to make a name for himself throughout the East Continent?

Li Dazhi meticulously counted in his heart.

When Ping’an was in the Qi Cultivation realm, he was able to guide Weiyanzai to overcome the bottleneck at the Heaven and Earth Bridge, advancing to a Yuan Immortal.

When Ping’an was in the Void Refinement Realm, he was able to guide Elder Yansheng past the bottleneck at the peak of True Immortal Realm, stepping into the Heavenly Immortal realm.

Now Ping’an is at the Merge True Realm, and if he can update the Enlightenment Stone record from Heavenly Immortal breaking into Golden Immortal, what worries are there about not becoming famous in the world?

‘Ping’an seems not to like drawing too much attention.’

Li Dazhi pondered for a moment, then thought:

‘This isn’t about going in the limelight.

If he can help Senior Xu Sheng, that would be a blessing for all, and that’s a master of Artifact Refining!’

Immediately, Li Dazhi stood up and smiled, “Everyone, please continue.

I have to go find my son, Ping’an.”

“Hey!” Xu Sheng said, “Just send someone to call him over!”

Qing Su, who was focused on picking food in the corner, looked up at this scene.

After thinking for a brief moment, Qing Su continued to slowly savor the delicious food, while the tender-hearted old Heavenly Immortal from the Yuan Sect kept helping her add more to her plate.

“No need, no need!”

Li Dazhi made a bow with his hands and called out:

“I’ll be right back, please carry on!”

Having said that, Li Dazhi hurried off to the side chamber, and the Sect Leader of Yuan Sect drained his cup of wine in one gulp and followed behind, shouting:

“Brother Dazhi!

Ping’an is over here!”

…

Now to Li Ping’an, Ningning Mu, Gu Qingcheng, and the older sister named Zhu Ling’er, who had all taken a table on their own in the corner of the distant side chamber.

Li Ping’an originally felt some regrets.

On their journey, there hadn’t been any encounters; eight hundred immortals were traveling together, yet no one came to cause trouble.

‘Is the Great Fortune of my father only for cultivation practices?’

However, as soon as the four of them sat down, before they could even start eating, several masters of Artifact Refining from Yuan Sect, True Immortals, came over together.

With a grand gesture, they left behind more than a dozen Immortal Treasures and Magic Artifacts.

No sooner had these True Immortals left than disciples from Yuan Sect began to step forward in succession.

Li Ping’an and the others kept standing up to toast and return gestures, as the treasures by their side grew more numerous.

The Yuan Sect, a major Artifact Refining Sect, had disciples skilled in refining artifacts, and most of the treasures they gifted were Magic Artifacts used for Magical Combat.

After this round of gift-giving, Li Ping’an amassed seven or eight Immortal Treasures and more than twenty Magic Artifacts;

Ningning Mu received four Immortal Treasures, among them a brand new hairpin and a bracelet.

Gu Qingcheng and Zhu Ling’er each got their share of one Immortal Treasure and several Magic Artifacts and were grinning from ear to ear.

Gu Qingcheng sent a telepathic message filled with emotion, “Great Fortune does not deceive us!”

Li Ping’an shook his head with a smile, thinking to himself…

is this just the beginning?

If his guess was correct, Senior Xu Sheng would definitely gift treasures later on, and that would be the real highlight of the show.

The reason was simple.

If Senior Xu Sheng directly gifted valuable treasures to his father Li Dazhi, it might seem like an attempt to ‘buy favor or assemble a coalition.’ Although both sects were in full cooperation as allied sects, such matters still needed to be taken into account.

But if Senior Xu Sheng presented treasures to Li Ping’an, a junior disciple who had yet to become an immortal, it would be seen as care for the younger generation, and the immortals of the Wanyun Sect would not think too much of it.

As the four had just sat down, Ningning Mu picked a piece of lean meat and placed it in the bowl in front of Li Ping’an.

“Thank you, junior sister.”

Li Ping’an picked a roasted spiritual bird leg and placed it in the bowl in front of Ningning Mu.

Ningning Mu softly said, “Thank you, senior brother.”

Gu Qingcheng blinked and put a sprig of Spirit Grass into Zhu Ling’er’s bowl, whispering, “Say thank you to your junior brother!”

Zhu Ling’er glanced at him and uttered tersely, “Scram.”

“Alrighty,” Gu Qingcheng flashed the smile typical of a Sword Cultivator.

Helpless, he had been beaten by his senior sister since childhood; he didn’t dare to speak recklessly.

Just then,

“Ping’an, Ping’an?”

A whisper entered his ear, and Li Ping’an turned his head toward the entrance, spotting his father hiding at the door.

Li Dazhi telepathically said, “I won’t come in, or else I’d have to make toasts and chat, too troublesome.

Come out quickly, there’s some urgent matter that needs your decision.”

Li Ping’an smelled the scent of a conspiracy.

He knew his father all too well.

If there truly had been some urgent matter, his father would’ve assured him not to worry first, instead of summoning him with a smiling telepathic message.

However, after a bit of thought, Li Ping’an decided to go anyway.

He had something to remind his father about.

“Junior sister, Brother Gu, Senior Sister Zhu Ling’er, please continue eating; my father is looking for me over there…

Senior Sister Zhu Ling’er, could you look after Ningning for me.”

The three of them looked towards the entrance and quickly nodded.

Ningning Mu said, “Senior brother, you go ahead and take care of what you need to.”

Li Ping’an bowed and swiftly slipped away from the edge of the great hall.

As soon as he stepped outside, his father grabbed his arm and dragged him towards the main hall.
