Qin Wentian stared at the figures who had just appeared. For a moment, the entire atmosphere was akin to a garden full of blooming flowers. They came from different directions, each from different factions of the Southern Phoenix Clan. Given how ancient the Southern Phoenix Clan was, they naturally had many descendants. And these thirty six maidens were the most outstanding of all for their generation.
The beauties before him were all holy maidens. They were competing for the position of the holy successor.

What a bevy of beauties.
The banquet guests all sighed in admiration. The beauties before them were truly dazzling to the eyes, an outright visual feast.

Nanfeng Qingruo, what a refined demeanor she has. Truly a supreme beauty.
The crowd stared at one of the holy maidens clad in azure robes. She had a sweet-looking appearance that caused one to instantly be fond of her the moment they looked at her. As a second-level immortal foundation expert, Nanfeng Qingruo was one of the most popular holy maidens among the thirty-six.

Nanfeng Shengge, her beauty is unreal. It’s as though she doesn’t belong to the mortal world.
The crowd then turned their attention onto another one of the holy maidens. Nanfeng Shengge was also at the second-level. She was extremely powerful and one of the more popular ones within the group.

Nanfeng Aoxue, a cold beauty that’s extremely domineering. She’s at the third-level of immortal foundation.
The crowd turned to another of the holy maidens. This time, they were looking at Nanfeng Aoxue, another one of the more popular few among the thirty-six.

Nanfeng Yunxi.
At this moment, everyone’s eyes turned to a beautiful young woman clad in phoenix-feathered clothing. Her beauty was unparalleled. Even among this bevy of gorgeous women, she still managed to stand out.

Senior Brother, the Southern Phoenix Clan is truly an ancient and great clan. They have a populated community, the beauties here are as common as the clouds. If they wanted to hold a recruitment event for son-in-laws, how many talented individuals would compete for that chance? The inheritance of such a great clan would surely not be too shabby,
Jun Mengchen mumbled in a low voice. Qin Wentian smiled as he nodded. When people with high talent coupled together, how could their children end up weak? This ensured the Southern Phoenix Clan would maintain their strength throughout the years.

Well, if you are going to be a son-in-law of the Southern Phoenix Clan, you will have to marry into their clan. Do you want to consider it?
Qin Wentian joked as he smiled at Jun Mengchen.

Actually, I have no such concern. Everything depends on strength, and even if I marry into their clan, then when my strength surpasses them in the future, I’ll still be as free as ever with nothing to restrict me.
Jun Mengchen didn’t seem to mind it at all as he replied.

Marrying into their clan means joining it. In this city, the majority of the businesses here are all controlled by the Southern Phoenix Clan. Many of the sects and clans are their subordinates, founded by their own members.
Qin Wentian smiled.
In any case, you won’t be able to join them even if you wanted to.

Jun Mengchen laughed, but he agreed. As a disciple of the Heavenly Talisman Realm, there was no way he could marry into and join the Southern Phoenix Clan.

Senior Brother, the Southern Phoenix Clan hasn’t explicitly announced it, but from what I’ve heard of the rumors, I think they might really be selecting son-in-laws this time around,
Jun Mengchen transmitted his voice to Qin Wentian.
Think about it—those invited are all heaven’s chosen from major powers or descendants from immortal emperors. These holy maidens might want to form a good relationship with them, and if they truly connect, there might be talk of marriage. Being able to marry into the Southern Phoenix Clan is a dream and a temptation that almost no one in the entire southern region of the immortal realms would ignore.

Qin Wentian glanced at Jun Mengchen before glancing at their surroundings. These holy maidens were women too, so they would have to marry eventually. Naturally, their partners would have to be the cream of the crop. They wouldn’t choose a mediocre character.

So, I deduce that Nanfeng Yunxi might really be interested in you, Senior Brother,
Jun Mengchen continued transmitting his voice, while laughing gaily. Qin Wentian glared at him.
Maybe she invited me over to help her with something. Nanfeng Yunxi was acquainted with us in the City of Ancient Emperors, and the other holy maidens’ strength isn’t any weaker than hers. All of them must have been to the City of Ancient Emperors before, and gotten to know all these descendants of major powers. And so, they invited them for help as well this time around. In any case, the Southern Phoenix Clan is a transcendent power in the immortal realms. The status of a holy maiden is extraordinary, so it won’t be so easy to marry them.

Right now, in another location/area…

Fairy Aoxue, it’s been a long time since we last met.
Rong Xiao walked towards Nanfeng Aoxue, a smile painted on his face.

Rong Xiao, it has been a long time indeed. You are still as imposing as before.
Nanfeng Aoxue nodded her head lightly at Rong Xiao. After that, she turned her gaze away to smile at the others. Rong Xiao discovered that he wasn’t the only one that Nanfeng Aoxue invited; she had invited a few other friends as well, both males and females. One among them was extremely outstanding and radiated a golden light. Nanfeng Aoxue had a smile on her face as she continued chatting with him.

Zong Zhan.
The name of this man was Zong Zhan. He stood there, exuding an aura of sharpness with a tinge of something demonic within.

He is a demonic beast,
Purgatory said in a low voice. She could sense a strong demonic energy flowing from that man.
Zong Zhan’s gaze turned over. His eyes were golden and extremely sharp, akin to a sharp sword that could penetrate through everything. His gaze landed directly on Purgatory, and it actually caused her to feel a piercing pain.

Vermillion bird.
Zong Zhan’s eyes shone with a wild light.

Golden condor,
Purgatory said coldly. Zong Zhan’s true self was a condor.

It’s Golden Heaven-Warring Condor,
Zong Zhan said proudly, smiling at Purgatory. However, there was a hint of ill intent in his smile, which caused Purgatory to be on the alert.
Qin Wentian smiled secretly to himself when he saw Purgatory’s manner. Although Purgatory might look mature in her human form, her state of heart was still like a young girl’s. If Little Rascal were here, he might also have acted in the same way as Zong Zhan if he saw a pretty girl.
The friends that Nanfeng Qingruo and Nanfeng Shengge had invited were all extraordinary individuals. Evidently, the heaven’s chosen in attendance were all the cream of the crop. Qin Wentian could faintly hear people talking about the City of Ancient Emperors. These heaven’s chosen must have also been ranked within the top positions on the Immortal Ascension Rankings before.
The gazes of many people landed on Nanfeng Yunxi. This young holy maiden had only a few select friends. Nobody knew who she’d invited.
At this moment, everyone could see Nanfeng Yunxi turning her gaze in a certain direction. A faint smile could be seen flickering in her eyes and the moment she smiled, her beauty seemed to bloom like a peach blossom in summer, causing quite a few among the crowd to be dazed by her beauty. After that, Nanfeng Yunxi started walking over, then stopped to stand in front of a young man.
It seems like I didn’t place my trust in the wrong person. You’re really here.

Everyone’s eyes gleamed as they instantly focused on Qin Wentian. This young man was surely not a character living in the Southern Phoenix Immortal City, otherwise someone would have recognized him already.

A supreme beauty of the Southern Phoenix Clan sent an invitation to me from thousands of miles away. How can I fail to show up?
Qin Wentian smiled.

I truly spent a great deal of effort to look for you. Luckily, the invitation reached your hands in the end.
Nanfeng Yunxi had mobilized much of the power she was authorized to use, and finally found out that that Qin Wentian was in the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect. After learning of that, she immediately sent out the invitation.

Am I the only one you invited?
Qin Wentian noticed that he alone chatted with Nanfeng Yunxi No one else came forward.

Mhm.
Nanfeng Yunxi nodded lightly.

Aren’t you worried that I might choose not to come despite receiving the invitation?
Qin Wentian replied, dumbfounded.

In that case, I can only blame my bad luck. But no matter what, I was once a member of the Qin Sect. I’m sure the sect leader wouldn’t fail to give me this bit of face.


Oi, must you guys keep bantering flirtatiously? I’ve been tossed to the side
Jun Mengchen said glumly. Nanfeng Yunxi glanced at him as she smiled,
I didn’t expect you to be here too. It looks like my luck isn’t bad. By the way, is this beautiful lady, Purgatory?


Mhm.
Qin Wentian nodded.

To actually have three members of the Qin Sect coming by.
Nanfeng Yunxi laughed. At this moment, a pretty woman with picturesque looks walked over. It was none other than Nanfeng Shengge. She smiled at Qin Wentian.
You must be the Qin Sect leader from the City of Ancient Emperors who fought side by side with Yunxi, right? You used your overwhelming strength and defeated the son of the Violet Emperor, Zi Daoyang, seizing away the top-ranked position in the Immortal Ascension Rankings, thereby placing all the city’s heaven’s chosen beneath your feet. No wonder Yunxi invited you over.


Holy maiden praises me too much,
Qin Wentian smiled as he replied. Next to Nanfeng Shengge was a young man that radiated a strange light. He seemed to emanate an extremely vast aura—he was most definitely an extraordinary character. He glanced at Qin Wentian.
I’ve also heard of your name before. Zi Daoyang died by Mo Xie’s hand, but you’re the reason he suffered heavy injuries. All this triggered the immortal sense of the Violet Emperor in advance, freeing a path for Mo Xie to slaughter Zi Daoyang. I’ve also heard that Xuan Xing, the younger son of the Xuan Emperor, also died by your hands. This is the same for Que Tianyi, the personal disciple of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor. You are truly one of the legends of this generation in the City of Ancient Emperors. Only Mo Xie is qualified to stand against you.

When the sound of his voice faded, the expressions of everyone in the surroundings changed. Before this, they were filled with disdain and suspicion, but now, they were only filled with shock and trepidation. Heavily injuring Zi Daoyang, which led to his death, killing a son of the Xuan Emperor and a personal disciple of the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor. This fellow didn’t seem to be as peaceful as he looked and was most definitely a madman. He’d already offended three immortal emperors. Was he tired of living?
