Chapter 1105: Arrival of the Daoist Venerable
The nearby Lai Ping and Bian Xiu, along with others, had completely believed Brother Cheng and the Three-Eyed Tiger’s ’bragging’.
This Feixian Sect could actually have a Supreme being as their Sect Guardian Immortal Beast.
The status is a bit ridiculously high!
The Celestial Palace also has several Supreme demonic races employed.
But they serve as Immortal Officials in the Celestial Palace, not as gatekeeping Immortal Beasts.
It goes without saying how powerful the Feixian Sect itself must be!
For a moment, both Yan Yi and Lai Ping, in their hearts, had a boundless admiration for the founder of the Feixian Sect, as endless as a vast river.
Sect Leader Jiang himself even jumped up in ’astonishment’.
"You, you are actually the Sect Guardian Immortal Beast of the Feixian Sect?"
He looked at the Three-Eyed Tiger with an incredulous face.
His eyes were full of shock.
"My apologies, I had no idea you held such an esteemed position!"
The Three-Eyed Tiger’s mouth twitched.
Damn it, serving as the Sect Guardian Beast of the Feixian Sect has always been the shame of my life, okay?
And you say it like it’s some glorious thing.
"Yes, yes, so could you do me a favor?"
"Of course!"
Jiang Cheng patted his chest readily.
"Since you’re the Sect Guardian Immortal Beast of the Feixian Sect, I must give you this face."
He even nudged the Three-Eyed Tiger: "In the future, when you meet the founder of the Feixian Sect, could you put in a good word for me, help me get ahead..."
The Three-Eyed Tiger looked at him with utmost disdain.
How does one ask oneself for promotion?
"As long as you release Yan Yi, everything will be negotiable."
"No problem!"
Brother Cheng readily pushed Yan Yi towards the Three-Eyed Tiger.
Really letting me go?
Even Yan Yi herself found it extremely unbelievable.
This duck in hand, someone is actually willing to release it?
Isn’t it too ridiculous?
"Hahaha, I’ll remember this favor of yours."
The Three-Eyed Tiger pretended to boast, standing tall and proud.
Girl, now you know how capable I am, right?
With such a life-saving favor today, you have to show some gratitude or it won’t be fair, right?
Seeing his gaze seeking praise, even if Yan Yi once hated him, she had to sincerely thank him at this moment.
"I will repay this life-saving kindness in the future!"
The Three-Eyed Tiger was completely unreserved.
"Hahaha, we are about to become one family, no need for talks about repayment, it’s too distant..."
Yan Yi cursed in her heart, who is becoming one family with you?
But having just received ’kindness’, it wasn’t suitable to retort.
Just then, a hearty laugh echoed from above.
"Hahahaha, what a Feixian Sect, what a founder..."
The laughter was so powerful that it almost made Lai Ping and the others faint on the spot.
The Three-Eyed Tiger’s expression changed, quickly communicating with Jiang Cheng.
"Oops, her father, Yan Mu Daoist Venerable, has arrived!"
In the next instant, a tall middle-aged man with a black beard dressed in a black robe appeared in the air.
"Father..."
Yan Yi was overjoyed and hurried over to him.
However, this time, before she could escape, Brother Cheng blocked her path.
"I released you, but I released you to the Three-Eyed Tiger, giving him face. Not releasing you to your father."
Upon hearing this, the Three-Eyed Tiger discreetly gave Brother Cheng a thumbs up.
Bro, you really are an old partner, even at this point, still helping me show off.
Yan Yi shouted, "How dare you!"
"What do I not dare?"
Without unlocking her Immortal Power and Divine Soul, Brother Cheng easily pulled her back.
He then directly faced Yan Mu Daoist Venerable in front of her.
"First it’s the young ones who fight, now the older ones show up?"
Bro’s cheat system is already itching for a fight, killing a Daoist Venerable, who knows how many Celestial Dao Points it might net?
Because no one’s done it before, there’s no head price for a Daoist Venerable on the Celestial Dao Chart.
Yan Mu Daoist Venerable paused.
Then let out a hearty laugh.
"Ha, hahahaha..."
"You’re quite bold, young man!"
Brother Cheng slightly smiled, "Yes, yes, don’t you just want to kill me?"
He was eager to start the battle.
Lai Ping, Bian Xiu, and others beside him were almost on the verge of collapse.
Boss, you’ve gone insane.
Daring to challenge a Daoist Venerable?
However, Yan Mu Daoist Venerable did not react as they expected him to; he didn’t get angry or strike immediately.
He just stared deeply at Jiang Cheng.
After looking for a while, surprisingly he nodded in satisfaction.
Then, he shouted toward the distant void.
"Yu Jin Daoist Venerable, since you’re here, why hide?"
With his words, the Commander of the right battlefield, Yu Jin Daoist Venerable, magically appeared from afar.
In fact, these two Daoist Venerables had been here for a while.
The reason was simple: both Venerable Kun Liu and Venerable Gu Fan had died.
The death of a Supreme in this day and age was a monumental event.
Both Daoist Venerable leaders sensed it immediately and rushed over, even observing the little skit between the Three-Eyed Tiger and Brother Cheng.
They just didn’t realize it was a performance.
Seeing Yu Jin Daoist Venerable appear, Lai Ping and Zhong Man were almost overwhelmed with excitement.
A Daoist Venerable from the Celestial Palace, a Third Grade Immortal Official!
They’d only ever heard of such figures, never seen them in their lives.
To them, it was as if a god had descended before them.
The four hurriedly bowed down.
"Greetings Daoist Venerable!"
Ordinarily, Yu Jin Daoist Venerable wouldn’t spare a glance at such insignificant beings.
But maybe because they belonged to the ’First Handsome Team’, he made an exception and raised his hand, lifting the four up effortlessly.
"Rise!"
Then, his gaze shifted to Brother Cheng’s face.
His eyes held contemplation, but mostly joy and satisfaction.
"Jiang Cheng, you are quite impressive!"
"You’ve brought glory to our right battlefield!"
His compliment left Captain Jiang feeling... unappreciated.
This old man, acting all senior patting junior on the head, made Brother Cheng feel like his status dropped.
Wherever Brother Cheng goes, he must be the highest, okay?
"Yan Mu Daoist Venerable, long time no see!"
The Celestial Palace and the Evil Immortals were at each other’s throats, but their high-level leaders weren’t as fiery.
Some even used to have connections.
"This time both of us lost a Supreme on each side, it’s a tie. How about we stop here and retreat?"
This was also the main reason he valued Jiang Cheng.
They faced three Supremes, and without Jiang Cheng, Venerable Kun Liu’s death would mean a loss for the Celestial Palace.
And since Venerable Kun Liu was ’assigned’ by him, he would bear responsibility.
But with Jiang Cheng defeating Venerable Gu Fan, the Celestial Palace turned the tide.
Moreover, Jiang Cheng captured Yan Yi.
Add it all up, and the Celestial Palace ended up winning.
As a Daoist Venerable, not only was he not at fault, but it was ’commanded’ skillfully.
"Hmph!"
Yan Mu Daoist Venerable chuckled coldly.
"Yu Jin, you’re dreaming!"
His daughter was still held by Jiang Cheng, retreating just like that would mean a huge loss.
