Chapter 392 - Leaving the Gigantic Tripod Immortal City Far Behind

Chapter 392: Leaving the Gigantic Tripod Immortal City Far Behind
The Starry Sky Tea House was very quiet. No one came out of the building or replied.
Yu Yanzi frowned and hollered once more,
Yu Yanzi from the Thunder Yang Sect has come to pay a visit!

The Starry Sky Tea House remained extremely quiet and still. No one came out.
Yu Yanzi lifted his hand and smacked the restriction of the Starry Sky Tea House, causing the restriction to quiver.
The numerous cultivators, who had come to purchase the Starry Sky Tea but had yet to leave, were very curious as to who this Yu Yanzi was who had dared to smack the Starry Sky Tea House’s restriction. Had he forgotten what had happened to the Great Fortune Inn a few months ago? The head of sales of the Starry Sky Tea House was Xie Huang, the Young Palatial Lord of the Starry Demon Palace.

Is anyone aware of his background?
someone asked in a low voice.

That’s a deacon from the Thunder Yang Sect of the Thunder Court Immortal Continent. He has come by a few times already,
said someone who had recognized Yu Yanzi.
Many people fell silent when they heard the sect’s name. The strength of the Thunder Yang Sect was comparable to that of the five Major Immortal Sects, as it was one of the top-notch immortal sects of the Thunder Court Immortal Continent. Disciples from this sect mostly possessed the Thunder Spirit Root, and cultivators who possessed Spirit Roots of this element had the greatest combat power.
The restriction of the Starry Sky Tea House shook. However, no sound was heard from within, and no one came out. Yu Yanzi was internally panicking. He was afraid that Di Jiu had already left the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City.
Di Jiu could not leave. He would not be able to bear the consequences of failure should he not be able to meet Di Jiu and bring the latter back to the Thunder Yang Sect. The Thunder Yang Sect Master had specifically asked him to watch this alchemist, who was able to refine the Seven-Orifice Soul Condensing Elixir. The Sect Master himself was on the way to the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City.
At this thought, Yu Yanzi stopped worrying and punched the restriction at the entrance of the Starry Sky Tea House. He prayed that Di Jiu was in deep seclusion inside, which was why the latter had not heard him smacking the restriction.
Boom! Numerous continuous blade flares shot out. Yu Yanzi had not expected that anyone would install a killing array outside the entrance of their own store. He tried to retreat anxiously, but the surrounding space suddenly became hard to maneuver in. He was pierced by several blade flares that spilled his blood in the process.
If he had launched an attack at the store, his life would have been in danger.
Yu Yanzi was enraged as he took out a thunder halberd. Just because others did not dare to attack the store’s restriction in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, it did not mean that the same applied to the Thunder Yang Sect.
A huge hand approached and slapped him away just as he was about to attack Di Jiu’s store with his halberd again.
Bam! Yu Yanzi flew a long distance away. Both his legs were broken into many parts and he spat out several mouthfuls of blood that contained bits of his innards. Evidently, the person who had slapped Yu Yanzi had not intended to kill him. Otherwise, he would have killed him with a slap.

City Lord Mi, you dared to attack me?
hollered Yu Yanzi immediately when he landed back onto the ground. There was no one else in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City other than Mi Ji, the City Lord, who could accomplish this feat.
The facial expression of Mi Ji, who had just arrived at the scene, was ugly, for he was not the one who had slapped Yu Yanzi. However, he dared not do anything to the latter, as he could not afford to offend the Thunder Yang Sect. He might be the City Lord of the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, but he did not hold absolute power. Many Sect Masters from major sects looked down on him, and there was nothing he could do about it.

I attacked you. Why? If you are not happy, you could ask Li Lei from the Thunder Yang Sect to come here. Let’s see if I, Xie Wanling, would still slap you once more or not,
said a frosty voice.
Then, a tall man wearing a hemp garment landed on the ground.
Mi Ji had already walked up, cupped his fists and greeted him.
My apologies for being so slow to welcome you to the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, Immortal Emperor Starry Demon.

Xie Wanling nodded his head and chatted briefly with Mi Ji.
Mi Ji might only possess the strength of a first-stage Immortal Emperor, but he was still an Immortal Emperor.
Yu Yanzi looked terrified. The Thunder Yang Sect was not afraid of the Starry Demon Palace, but he would be helpless if Xie Wanling was to kill him here.

Long live Immortal Emperor Starry Demon. Greetings, City Lord.
The surrounding cultivators bowed in tandem.
Immortal Emperor Starry Demon was one of the Sect Masters of the Five Major Sects. Moreover, he was a Great Immortal Emperor who had attained the seventh-stage Immortal Emperor Realm, which was why one could greet him with ‘long live’. Mi Ji might be the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City Lord, but he was only at the first-stage Immortal Emperor Realm. Therefore, one only had to greet him normally.
Yu Yanzi hastily swallowed some elixirs and bowed with great difficulty.
Yu Yanzi from the Thunder Yang Sect greets Immortal Emperor Starry Demon.


Scam!
hollered Xie Wanling. Actually, he was a little wary of Li Lie.
Li Lie, the Sect Master of the Thunder Yang Sect, was only at the fifth-stage Immortal Emperor Realm but he possessed the Thunder Spirit Root and hence had terrifying combat power. He had killed a number of late-stage Immortal Emperors in the past.

Ha ha… I’m here as well, Brother Xie.
Zhou Bujian, who was carrying a scabbard-less sword on his back, appeared out of thin air.
Mi Ji hurriedly greeted him, as he did not think that Immortal Emperor Void Sword had gone there for Xie Huang as well. The Immortal Emperor Void Sword must have come for Di Jiu.

Long live Immortal Emperor Void Sword!
The crowd greeted him in one voice.
Immortal Emperor Void Sword nodded his head at the crowd. When his gaze landed on the words engraved outside the Starry Sky Tea House, he exclaimed,
Good Dao runes! Good words!

Buy one leaf, gain one world!
One leaf, one world!
Xie Wanling said awkwardly,
This punk is so vulgar. He used the word ‘buy’ in such a beautiful sentence.

The reason he was feeling awkward before was that he did not care about Xie Huang anymore. He had just left the Yaohua Snow Mountain to come to the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City, yet he had been caught red-handed by Zhou Bujian.
Immortal Emperor Void Sword shook his head.
No, ‘buying’ and ‘giving’ are different. Alchemy Master Di is someone who possesses great wisdom and knowledge. Xie Huang’s cultivation might be inferior to other people’s, but he has a sincere heart. This is why he was able to make friends with a wise man like Alchemy Master Di.

When he said that, Immortal Emperor Void Sword sighed. He had brought his son Zhou Hechen here with the intention of having him become friends with Di Jiu. He also wanted to advise Di Jiu to not go ahead with the Starry Sky Tea business, as his status as an Alchemy Master was insufficient for that.
He had not expected that Di Jiu would have already left the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City. Given the cultivation he possessed, he could naturally know instantly that Di Jiu had already left. That was also why Immortal Emperor Void Sword was even more certain that Di Jiu possessed great wisdom and knowledge.
Xie Wanling did not believe that it was because of good luck that Xie Huang had been able to become friends with Di Jiu. No matter how formidable Di Jiu was in alchemy, he was a mere Itinerant Cultivator. No matter how useless Xie Huang was, he was still Xie Wanling’s son.
He also did not think that Di Jiu was the one who had refined the Starry Sky Tea, for the latter would not possess such capabilities even if he successfully refined the Seven-Orifice Soul Condensing Elixir. That was not part of the different capabilities of the Alchemy Dao, but the cultivation realm.
The reason he had gone there was because Immortal Emperor Melting Snow had praised Xie Huang. Upon thinking that Xie Huang’s lifespan was about to reach its end, he had suddenly felt the impulse to see Xie Huang once more. After all, Xie Huang was his eldest son. This purpose aside, he also wanted to inquire about and investigate the matter of the Starry Sky Tea.

Alchemy Master Di is not here. I need to leave the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City as well. Does Brother Xie want to come along?
Upon seeing that Di Jiu was not around, Immortal Emperor Void Sword decided to head back.
When Xie Wanling used his Spiritual Force, his expression changed. Xie Huang had not taken his Spiritual Force recoding card along with him, so he was unable to track Xie Huang’s whereabouts as a result.

I need to head back to the Starry Demon Palace as well. See you next time, Brother Zhou.
Xie Wanling’s expression was very ugly. He was furious that Xie Huang had actually dared to leave his Spiritual Force recording card in the Gigantic Tripod Liberal Immortal City and run off somewhere after. He knew his son’s personality well and such an idea could not possibly have been his. It must definitely have been Di Jiu who had ordered this. He would show Di Jiu the consequences of doing such a thing when he saw him in the future.
…
The moment Di Jiu enter the void, he let Xie Huang take out a high-grade immortal flying shuttle.
The highest grade of flying Dharma treasure he possessed was a middle-grade immortal weapon. Xie Huang was the son of an Immortal Emperor. Hence, he possessed many treasures, including two high-grade flying boats.
The distance to the place indicated on the turtle shell ancient map was big. Di Jiu wished to improve his cultivation during this period of traveling.

Third Brother, let me control this flying shuttle. I always controlled the flying boat when Big Brother was cultivating,
implored Little Tree hastily when it saw Xie Huang taking out a flying shuttle.
Xie Huang asked with an ugly expression,
Tiny Tree Root, I’m evidently the Second Brother. Why did you address me as Third Brother?

Little Tree chuckled.
Second Brother is Geng Ji, who followed Big Brother when Big Brother had just started cultivating. If you do not wish to be the Third Brother, then you could only become the Fourth Brother in the future.


Step aside. Your cultivation level is too low. I will take control from here.
Xie Huang felt helpless, for he could not do anything about the fact that this fella called Geng Ji had met Di Jiu before him.
Black Fire, who was standing aside, said,
Little Tree, you should cultivate. You possess the lowest cultivation level here.


There’s also Elder Sister Mo,
snorted Little Tree.
Black Fire chuckled.
Elder Sister Mo’s cultivation will soar rapidly once Big Brother finds the Agama True Glazed Water for her. You will not be able to catch up then, even if you use a high-grade immortal weapon to do so. When that happens, your cultivation level will definitely be the lowest. This means that you will only be left behind to watch over the shop or remain in the ring when Big Brother brings us out in the future.

Little Tree shuddered as it envisioned staying in the Quintessential World all alone. It hastily rushed inside the flying shuttle while murmuring,
I am going to cultivate.
