Chapter 234: Chapter 2331 Was Almost Scared to Death_i

Translator: 549690339 |

Li Cheng had just emerged from seclusion when he saw Gu Sanqiu staring at him with wide eyes, obviously taken aback, prompting Li Cheng to make a teasing remark.

Gu Sanqiu snapped back to reality and took a deep breath, “It’s not that I want to scare you to death, it’s that you nearly scared me to death!”

Li Cheng smiled, “Sect Master, you actually made it here!”

“Look at howyou’re talking, little uncle. With League Master Gu holding a grand banquet in your honor, how could our sect miss it?” Mu Xingzhi said with a smile.

The smile on Li Cheng’s face deepened, “Sect Master, you’ve come at just the right time. Not long ago, I met Ancestor Baili Changkong, who mentioned that the Immortal World’s sects are planning to move back to the Kunlun Realm. How is that progressing?”

Mu Xingzhi glanced at Gu Sanqiu before saying, “With League Master Gu’s help, it will surely be accomplished in three months.”

“Oh?”

Li Cheng looked at the two of them. It seemed that the Heavenly Mechanism Sect and the Pill League had reached some form of cooperation.

“You don’t need to worry about the relocation of Heavenly Mechanism Sect, nor do you need to be concerned about it. Right now, the banquet is the main event!” declared Gu Sanqiu.

Mu Xingzhi nodded and added, “Indeed, little uncle, just focus on dealing with the banquet!”

Li Cheng grinned. Dealing with representatives from countless forces coming to pay their respects was actually quite exhausting.

At the same time, Li Cheng came to a realization. In those novels, the transmigrants who found enemies everywhere and were constantly targeted— it was because they weren’t powerful enough.

When one’s power reached a certain level, then everything one encountered would be pleasant and harmonious.

“The banquet starts in half an hour, let’s go. You are the main character this month,” Gu Sanqiu said with a laugh.

The banquet covered tens of thousands of miles, and as Li Cheng and his companions flew towards the center, cheers resounded through the heavens.

Li Cheng marveled inwardly; such a massive banquet was honestly a first for him.

After Gu Sanqiu’s opening remarks, Li Cheng thought he would have to toast table by table, but that wasn’t the case at all.

There were only Gu Sanqiu, Mu Xingzhi, and Li Cheng at the main table, who took their seats right after the opening, and then, starting from those closest, representatives from the various major forces came bearing cups of wine!

“Alliance Leader Gu, Alliance Leader Li, I represent the Immortal Court and come to congratulate the Pill League on acquiring an heir to the Alliance Leader’s position!”

The first to step forward was a representative from the Immortal Court!

And the congratulatory gift was a Storage Ring, though what was inside remained unknown at the moment.

Li Cheng was somewhat surprised: the Immortal Court’s representative didn’t insist on joining the main table? And it seemed that he wasn’t upset in the slightest.

“The Immortal Court sent a little grasshopper; just deal with it casually,” Gu Sanqiu conveyed telepathically.

Li Cheng was speechless and likewise raised his cup to drink it all in one gulp.

Mu Xingzhi accepted the Storage Ring for Li Cheng and glanced inside discreetly, his eyes revealing shock.

‘We’ve struck it rich; the Immortal Court actually gave away one hundred million top-grade Immortal Stones!’

‘And with countless forces queued up, the gifts received this month… Tsktsk!’

Mu Xingzhi kept his composure, suppressing the surprise in his heart. He knew that most of these congratulatory gifts would ultimately belong to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect!

He understood his little uncle; his little uncle was just that kind of person. He would only keep what was useful to him.

After this banquet, the wealth of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was feared to be incomparable to that of many other forces.

The second person to step forward was the Territory Lord of the Divine Palace Region, who controlled the richest and most powerful Divine Palace Region. Naturally, the congratulatory gift was extremely astonishing.

The banquet was bustling with activity, yet outside the Pill League at this moment, two mysterious people arrived.

They stayed hidden in the shadows, each holding the brush tip of a Pen of Life and Death.

“The Pen of Life and Death is in the hands of the Pill League!” one of them said.

“No need to tell me, as if I didn’t know that the Pen of Life and Death is here based on the direction of the pen’s bristle. Let’s go in and determine its exact location.”

“Don’t rush, the Pill League is currently hosting the so-called welcoming banquet. It’s not appropriate for us to barge in.”

“There’s nothing inappropriate about that. The banquet is an open invitation to all cultivators across the land. Our Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals is a prominent force with a reputable standing, we should attend to offer congratulations.”

The two revealed their figures, with the aura of Immortal Venerables swirling around them.

Having entered the banquet hall and led by a member of the Pill League, they made their way to a table on the periphery.

One of them covertly took out the pen’s bristle and after sensing it carefully, frowned, “The bristle is pointing towards the center; it seems to be the main seat.”

“The main seat? The next leader of the Pill League?”

“That’s very likely. I’ll shift to a few more spots to confirm. Stay calm and don’t worry.”

A short while later, the person returned, now with a rather troubled expression, “This is problematic. The Pen of Life and Death is indeed on the person who will be the next leader of the Pill League. It seems we must report back to the Immortal Realm and inform the Alliance Hierarch.”

The other also furrowed his brow, gazing towards Li Cheng and muttered, “This person has a Complete Immortal King cultivation. If he leaves the Pill League, we could easily snatch the Pen of Life and Death.”

” Have you lost your mind? That’ s the next leader of the Pill League you’ re talking about! Doing such a thing would undoubtedly push the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals to a dead end. We must report to the Alliance Hierarch and let him decide.”

After discussing, the two decided to leave. The matter was too important for them to act recklessly, so they chose to report back first.

Li Cheng downed another drink in one go, his eyes briefly following the departing Immortal Venerables, the smile on his face undiminished.

Indeed, he had not missed a word of their silent conversation.

“To think that the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals has a bristle of the Pen of Life and Death. I hope the Alliance Hierarch doesn’t do anything foolish…”

Li Cheng had initially thought the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals would send an Immortal King at most, given that he had suppressed one of their Immortal Monarchs. He hadn’t expected them to dispatch two Immortal Venerables.

Fortunately, he had now become the successor to the leader of the Pill League; otherwise, where would those two Immortal Venerables have the need to show any restraint?

He just didn’t know what the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals Hierarch might be planning.

After a moment’s contemplation, Li Cheng decided that it was best to upgrade his cultivation to the Immortal Emperor Realm as quickly as possible and seek out Emperor Qing in the mysterious Land of Darkness.

Although he had the support of the Pill League and needn’t worry about the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals for now, the matter originated due to Emperor Qing, so it was best for him to resolve it.

When Emperor Qing was around, the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals only dared to scheme in the shadows. If he were to reappear, they certainly wouldn’ t dare to make a move recklessly.

“Nearly two hundred years have passed, and I’ve only risen by one major realm. The next step is to refine a level-eight Rising Yuan Immortal Pill to reach the Complete Immortal Venerable Realm, which I fear might take four to five hundred years.”

Four to five hundred years—if he used the Seven Mystery Tower, that would translate to only two to three months and if he relied on the Immortal Palace, it would take seven to eight months.

Li Cheng secretly considered his options, deciding that perhaps after the end of the banquet, he should pay a visit back to the Heavenly Mechanism Sect. With the Transmission Array there, it wouldn’t take long, and it would be faster than staying here to use the Immortal Palace to refine the Rising Yuan Immortal Pill.

Besides, he still needed to refine a level-nine Rising Yuan Immortal Pill later, which would take even longer.

“The banquet has only just started, why do you seem a little distracted?” Gu Sanqiu communicated through a transmission.

Li Cheng smiled, “It’s nothing. I’m just considering my plan for after the banquet. Brother Gu, once the banquet is over, I’m thinking of returning to the Southern Domain for a while.”

“Hmm? For how long?” Gu Sanqiu asked.

Now that Li Cheng was the successor to the leader of the Pill League, a prolonged absence would certainly be inappropriate.

“Not too long, only to save some cultivation time,” Li Cheng replied.

Gu Sanqiu thought of the Seven Mystery Tower that Mu Xingzhi had mentioned and nodded, “I’ll accompany you. It’ll be a good opportunity to checkup on the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s relocation and meet Tianji Zi.”

Li Cheng felt secretly delighted, having a Perfect Immortal Emperor like Gu Sanqiu come along was more than he could ask for.
