Prayer Peak.
The palace was continuous, gorgeous and extravagant.
Qin Li sighed, “Your residence is really extravagant.”
Yun Shiyu shook her head and said, “Actually, the Eastern Domain is all about this architectural style, and the Eastern Immortal Palace is especially extravagant. After all, relying on refining techniques to earn a lot of wealth, there is no place to show off, so the houses are getting more and more ornate, hating the tripods and jades, gold nuggets and beads and gravels, showing off the wealth and riches.”
The duo walked and chatted as they entered Praying Rain Peak with a large group of people.
“Welcome Young Lord!”
“Young Lord, you have finally returned.”
“Why don’t you go prepare brocade clothes and jade food, fine wine and delicacies to wash the dust for Young Lord.”
In the middle of the palace, hundreds of ladies and old mothers made a scene, each busy, and there were also some young girls who specially picked flowers and spread them on the ground for Yun Shiyu to step on, which showed the degree of extravagance of the East Immortal Palace.
“Do not bother!”
Yun Shiyu waved her hand, clearly disliking this style, and went straight to, “Send someone to clean out the Crouching Immortal Courtyard, and arrange for the Outer Dao Immortal King to live there. Remember, in the future, seeing him is like seeing me, don’t neglect him. Also, make arrangements for the people from the Four Domains Chamber of Commerce, they were not lightly damaged this time.”
After saying that, he assisted Qin Li and entered the depths of the palace.
Seeing this!
A group of ladies murmured.
“The Young Lord actually brought a man back!”
“Is this Outer Dao Immortal King our auntie? But he’s not handsome at all, far worse than Immortal King Bixiao.”
An old mama with a face full of pleats coldly said, “Shut up, the young master’s matter, is it not something that you underlings can discuss, if you dare to chew on it again, you will be punished to go to the mines as prostitutes to serve those lowly miners.”
At once, the crowd of maids were shocked and shut up, each going about their business.
Hearing the commotion, Qin Li couldn’t help but say, “Your Eastern Domain is so open that you openly talk about this matter?”
Yun Shiyu helplessly shook her head and said, “The Eastern Domain is just like this, open and romantic, extravagant and rich, what other regions are ashamed to mention is just a recreational activity here.”
Qin Li smiled faintly, he suddenly remembered that the Eastern Domain was a region where women were superior to men, and powerful female cultivators were perfectly capable of raising dozens of face heads, so their style was extremely open.
The two walked and chatted as they arrived before a large courtyard.
Crouching Immortal Courtyard!
Nanmu for the beams, green sandalwood for the pillars, white walls and black tiles, within the courtyard there were also pine and bamboo forests, strange rocks and rockery, but it appeared to be clean and not luxurious, it was a good place for a clean and quiet retreat.
“This place has been inhabited for a long time, should I allocate ten ladies for you, to serve you with food and living!”Yun Shiyu inquired.
Qin Li shook his head repeatedly, “No need, I’m used to being alone, just don’t let anyone near the Crouching Immortal Courtyard. By the way, help take care of Su Qingxue and the others.”
“Got it, your little lady, I’ll take special care of them.”Yun Shiyu squeezed her eyebrows and let out a light laugh.
Qin Li let out a bitter smile, “Me and her, there’s really nothing.”
A few more sentences were chatted!
Yun Shiyu left the Crouching Immortal Courtyard.
Qin Li returned to his master bedroom and took a Vermilion Phoenix Fruit to suppress his injuries, then took out the Ice Seal Jade Pendant to dissipate the signs of going off the deep end.
Finally, he took out the Nirvana Remnant Scripture, the Husbandman’s Handwriting, the Golden Body Refining Decision, the Ten Positive Immortal Techniques, and a series of other feats of Immortality, and began to perfect the Immortal King’s Third Grade Feats to stabilise the current realm.
Qin Li was also a little surprised, he didn’t expect that in just two years, he had collected so many top-tier treasure books, each of which could start a sect and achieve a party of great power, and now they were all his own sustenance.
Three days later!
Qin Li was still delving into the pile of books.
As the gong method was perfected, his breath calmed down and his strength unexpectedly increased slightly, although it was not yet perfect, but it was beginning to take shape.
“Gold!”
A voice rang out.
Yun Shiyu kicked the door in very nonchalantly.
Qin Li hurriedly threw a bunch of precious books into the Qian Kun Pearl.
The Crouching Immortal Courtyard was huge, and it would take some time for Yun Shiyu to kick open the door and then walk to the master bedroom, so he had enough reaction worlds.
“Knock, remember to knock!”Qin Li repeatedly urged.
“This is my home, knock on the damn door.”Yun Shiyu walked over, she was wearing an aquamarine power suit today, still valiant and fastidious.
Qin Li said, “I don’t knock on doors for nothing, say it, what is it that you are looking for me for?”
Yun Shiyu raised her sword brows and smiled, “I do have an important matter. Because we caused a big trouble and made the Eastern Immortal Palace pay out for a batch of blades, all my mother has arranged a task that’s a bit of a headache, and I need your help.”
“No time!”Qin Li pointed at his whitened face and said, “My gongfu is still not perfected, my dark injuries have not completely subsided, and I can’t make any big moves in the near future for a month.”
Yun Shiyu laughed, “No, you have to come with me because this mission won’t work without you. And I have a hunch that this is your big chance! Because we’re going to visit another Outer Dao Immortal King,”
“Oh!”
Qin Li raised an eyebrow and instantly became intensely interested, asking after him, “There’s even someone other than me who chose the Outer Dao, tell me more carefully.”
Yun Shiyu explains, “A thousand years ago, there were two supreme geniuses in the Eastern Domain, one of which was the Plum Blossom Dweller, who rose to the ninth level of Immortal Exaltation in a hundred years’ time, and was said to be spirited and popular.”
“Originally, the Eastern Immortal Palace recruited him, but unfortunately, he was too arrogant and walked into the outer path, facing the thorny path alone, although he reached the third rank of Immortal King, he took too many detours, and was covered in dark wounds, his lifespan depleted. Now that he’s dying, our mission this time is to obtain his lifelong essence, the Plum Blossom Sword Scripture!”
Qin Li marvelled, not expecting that in today’s world, he would still be able to meet a forerunner, and inexplicably felt some pathos in his heart. If he wasn’t a Sixth Grade Alchemist and had the Xixuan Academy as his backing, he was afraid that he would be about the same as the Plum Blossom Jushi.
“Good, I’ll go with you to meet Plum Blossom Jushi!”
Yun Shiyu spread a smile.
Soon!
The duo set off.
A group of maids came out to welcome them.
Qin Li saw Su Qingxue in the crowd.
“Mr Jin, Sister Yun, are you going out?”The corners of Su Qingxue’s mouth rose in a smile that wasn’t very natural, and a forlorn look flashed in her eyes.
Yun Shiyu was sloppy and did not notice the difference, saying, “Sister Su, you will join the Eastern Immortal Palace in the future! You’re very talented in refining weapons, you’ll soon be able to advance to the fourth rank, I’ll arrange for you to be placed in the Weapon Refining Peak.”
Su Qingxue was stunned, looking at the heroic Yun Shiyu, her heart was a little sour, caught in her yearning, she couldn’t help but grit her teeth and said, “Sister Yun, I’ve heard that the East Immortal Palace has a sword peak. I also want to become a sword cultivator, as powerful, independent and stern as you.”
Yun Shiyu was slightly surprised and didn’t understand Su Qingxue’s choice, but still nodded, “Good, I’ll order the people at the sword peak to let you enter.”
Zhao Lingzhi stood by the side, her brows drooping as she inexplicably sighed.
Leaving Praying Rain Peak.
Qin Li and the two of them travelled all the way north.
Half a day later, they arrived at a large city.
Wenxiang City, the city covered a huge area and planted many flowering trees, but unfortunately, it was winter now and the trees were bare as the leaves fell off.
Yun Shiyu explained, “The Plum Blossom Dweller’s movements are erratic, he was seen coming here to buy wine in Wenxiang City, it should be to numb the pain, he should be making a few more trips, let’s wait!”
Qin Li nodded and looked for an inn anywhere.
The Flower Inn.
The interior of the house was gorgeously and extravagantly decorated.
The floor was covered with a thick animal skin carpet, and the surrounding area was still burning coals, so that the house was as warm as spring, while the cold wind outside was bitterly cold. There were also quite a few dancing girls inside, dressed in tulle, twisting their water snake waists, unusually seductive.
As soon as Qin Li, Yun Shiyu came in, someone came over to receive them.
One of the dancing girls smiled and said, “What a white and clean little brother, it’s a cold and long winter tonight, why don’t you communicate with me on the boat and snuggle up to each other for warmth!”
Qin Li smiled awkwardly, the Eastern Region is still really developed, and politely refused, “I already have a female companion, girl find someone else!”
Who knew that this dancing girl came with, “It’s fine, three people together, I won’t mind.”
“Scram!”
Yun Shiyu said in a cold voice.
Directly displaying part of her pressure, she dispersed the dancing girl.
Qin Li shook his head and smiled bitterly, “You seem to hate the style of the Eastern Domain that you dislike.”
Yun Shiyu sighed, “Nowadays, the Eastern Domain is extravagant and depraved, corrupting the will to the point where there aren’t any top geniuses. The southern and northern domains all have talents, and although the western domain is green and yellow, there are quite a few geniuses, but my eastern domain is the only one with two or three big cats and small cats, and I’m the only one in the younger generation to hold up the facade.”
“Gold and jade outside of it and failing in it, under the appearance of pomp and circumstance, is the degeneration of the entire Eastern Domain, in less than a few thousand years, it will fully lag behind the other three domains.”
Qin Li was also sighing.
At this time!
The temperature dropped.
Clouds in the sky, snow began to fall.
Hexagonal snowflakes fell and drifted all over the Qiankun, so much so that the heavens and earth were wrapped in white, shaping an icy yet dreamy beauty.
In the wind and snow, a linen-clothed old man walked into Wenxiang City, he was old, his gaze was dark, he walked slowly, as if half a foot was stepping into a coffin, and in his hand, he was holding a bouquet of plum blossoms, the fragrance came from the bitter cold.
