Part 3] Daoist Wei Yuan, the Sect Leader of Yuan Sect, laughed and floated behind the father and son, knowing they wanted to take the opportunity to talk about something, and didn’t initiate a conversation on his own.

The father and son exchanged whispered words through this contact, speaking the local dialect of their hometown.

“Dad, is there really an emergency?”

“Sea Watch Sect has started shaking people down,” Li Dazhi hummed, “They refuse to drink a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit; our Golden Immortal is here in East Continent, and there aren’t many records of upright Golden Immortals clashing.”

“Is it the ancestral master who’s coming?”

“No, it’s an old friend of the ancestral master, Granny Linghua.”

Li Ping’an raised an eyebrow.

Wasn’t that the companion of Daoist Kongming, whose strength was said to be even higher than his?

His father had gossiped with him about it before.

This pair of Golden Immortal companions were not husband and wife, but comrades who had fought side by side on the brink of life and death.

After hundreds of battles and burying the corpses of numerous fellow Daoists, they were the only two who stepped into the Realm of Longevity as Golden Immortals.

Daoist Kongming later founded Wanyun Sect and invited Granny Linghua to reside and cultivate there, and she readily agreed.

The last of the three Golden Immortals in Wanyun Sect was a disciple of Daoist Kongming.

If anyone in the entire Wanyun Sect was most trusted by Daoist Kongming, it wasn’t Li Dazhi, nor that Golden Immortal disciple, nor the Current Sect Leader, but Granny Linghua.

“Dad, we should still take the Sea Watch Sect matter seriously,” Li Ping’an said, “It’s best to send a message to our sect and have the second batch of Immortals on standby.”

“I’ve already sent a message back, I understand the importance of precautious measures,” Li Dazhi replied.

Li Dazhi raised an eyebrow and whispered:

“What puzzles me now is that Forge-Heaven Gate; they’ve watched the whole scene unfold, and now those six Heavenly Immortals are still waiting to the west, having recently retreated a few hundred miles.”

“They are preparing to activate a teleportation formation.”

Li Ping’an laughed:

“I really want to see what it looks like when such a formation is activated.”

“Will they cause trouble?”

Li Dazhi said with worry:

“I’m not afraid of the Sea Watch Sect because their strength is not much different from our Wanyun Sect—if we dare to fight, this kind of sect that only bullies the weak won’t dare to accept the challenge.

“But this Forge-Heaven Gate has a size that is several times more powerful than Wanyun Sect and Yuan Sect combined!

“This is truly difficult to deal with.”

Li Ping’an mused for a moment, “Later on, just prop them up with principles and give them high praise.”

“Oh?” Li Dazhi smiled with narrowed eyes, “You said that, so if you let me boldly criticize the Sea Watch Sect, I’ll do it without hesitation.”

Li Ping’an: …

He only meant to target them, target them, not…

huh?

Li Ping’an suddenly stopped in his tracks, broke free from his father’s arm, and in a swift motion, stepped up to the doorway of the side hall they had just passed, poking his head in to call out:

“Elder Xiaoyue?

Elder Xiaoyue!”

Xiaoyue, who was mingling with a group of Yuan Sect artifact refining masters, turned her head to look, her phoenix eyes filled with slight confusion.

Li Ping’an said, “Father asks if you could come over for a moment!”

Li Dazhi’s hand pressed down, hurriedly pulling Li Ping’an back.

But it was too late.

Xiaoyue rose with a graceful smile, the hem of her light-golden fitted dress spreading out like flowing water as she got up.

Her fair skin, illuminated by the light of a few Immortal Treasures’ jewelry, made many Immortals silently admire:

Such an exceptionally beautiful woman of unmatched elegance.

Xiaoyue apologized at the banquet, generously drinking a penalty cup on her own accord, and then moved towards the outside of the hall with grace, curtsied to Li Dazhi, and said softly:

“I have seen the Sect Leader of Yuan Sect…

Uncle-Master, did you want to see me?”

Li Dazhi twisted Li Ping’an’s arm with force, and said warmly: “There’s still the matter of discussing the operation of the Magical Treasure Shop; Xiaoyue, you are our manager, how could you be absent?”

He wanted to put on an elder’s stance.

Xiaoyue laughed softly, a bright light flashed through her phoenix eyes, and with a smile still on her face, she bowed her head and said in a soft voice, “Isn’t this all just a word from you?

Whatever you say, I will listen, hasn’t it always been like this before?”

The Sect Leader of Yuan Sect smiled with squinted eyes.

Li Ping’an, enduring the severe pain in his arm, quietly leaned toward this friendly-seeming Sect Leader.

Suddenly, a humming noise came from the west.

The Sect Leader of Yuan Sect frowned, “The teleportation formation has been activated.”

Li Ping’an’s eyes lit up: “Father!

You can continue talking with Aunt Xiaoyue, I’ll go to the front of the mountain gate to have a look; I’m really curious about such formations!”

The Sect Leader of Yuan Sect laughed, “Guests from Forge-Heaven Gate have come to visit, and I should go out to welcome them too!

Let’s go, my worthy nephew, I will take you there!”

Before Li Dazhi could speak, Li Ping’an took the initiative to jump on the cloud gathered beneath the feet of the Sect Leader of Yuan Sect, and together they hurried toward the west.

Three old Heavenly Immortals and more than a dozen Immortals flew out from Yuan Sect, following the Sect Leader to welcome today’s third batch of ‘distinguished guests.’

Outside the side hall, in the cloud corridor.

Xiaoyue smiled and made a gesture of invitation.

Li Dazhi, feeling uncomfortable all over, could only put his hands behind his back and hurry along.

“Uncle-Master Dazhi,” Xiaoyue’s voice softly reached him, “I’m grateful for your care these past few years.”

Li Dazhi could only say, “It’s nothing, it’s nothing.”
