Chapter 1114: Yu Xuan Becomes Famous Overnight
Seeing the Daoist Field Immortal ask questions, the Three-Eyed Tiger was about to step out and show off.
Brother Cheng acted first.
"Oh, these are two little followers I picked up outside."
He gestured to the Three-Eyed Tiger and Yan Yi, smiling and waving dismissively.
"It’s nothing, it’s nothing..."
The corner of the Three-Eyed Tiger’s mouth twitched, while Yan Yi’s eyes were full of disdain.
Do you have any shame?
When did I become your follower?
But considering this was the Celestial Palace’s territory, belonging to the ’enemy camp,’ she did not refute.
The two Lower Court Immortals immediately looked up in admiration, then flattered him profusely.
"No wonder you are Fellow Daoist Jiang!"
"Impressive, impressive, being out for such a short time and you can subdue two followers!"
They did not know that the Three-Eyed Tiger and Yan Yi were Supreme beings, only assuming they were Venerable at the Emperor Realm Ninth Layer.
"Well said, well said, today’s occasion is truly overwhelming!"
The two disciples paused slightly.
Not quite understanding how he could say ’overwhelming’.
But Brother Cheng, being a star figure of the Daoist Field, had already shown them his style before, so they only slightly surprised and naturally laughed.
"Yes, even Qiu Yuxuan can be considered yours."
"Indeed, this occasion does have your share."
"Hahaha, this time she has really brought face to our King Jia’s Dojo!"
"What?"
Brother Cheng was stunned.
"What did you just say? Qiu Yuxuan?"
"Is today’s event prepared for her?"
The two immortals nodded as if it was a matter of course.
"Don’t you know?"
"Qiu Yuxuan broke through the Heaven-Ascending Secret Realm and became instantly famous worldwide!"
"Today is the day the Celestial Palace is here to welcome her; she is about to become an Immortal Official directly."
"Not only our Daoist Field but many other King-Level Dojos’s experts, even those from Emperor-level Dojos, have come to congratulate..."
Brother Cheng opened his mouth, momentarily not knowing what to say.
"Pfft!"
Yan Yi, who had kept a straight face all the way, unabashedly laughed out loud.
"Oh dear, someone thought it was for himself, turns out it was wishful thinking!"
"Tsk tsk, I’ve heard of the Heaven-Ascending Secret Realm, it’s truly remarkable!"
"It’s said only three people succeeded before, right?"
"Your King Jia’s Dojo is impressive indeed, to produce such a figure, no wonder at such grandeur..."
Compared to Qiu Yuxuan, she truly has a big grudge with Jiang Cheng.
Sister Qiu only had some petty quarrel with Brother Cheng, without deep-seated vengeance.
Yan Yi truly had significant grievances; she was keen to see Sect Leader Jiang embarrassed.
The Three-Eyed Tiger made no sound, but his eyes also showed a hint of schadenfreude.
It’s rare indeed, rare to see Brother Cheng’s spotlight stolen.
As the three flew to the center of the Daoist Field, Jiang Cheng saw a group of strangers.
Like a grand banquet, floating jade tables fell into an intricate pattern.
Many Celestial Venerables and Supremes were distributed around.
And among the crowd, Brother Cheng saw some familiar faces, like Ji Cang, Venerable Xi Wu, and Celestial Venerable Hongqing.
But the most dazzling was, of course, Qiu Yuxuan being the center of attention.
A slight glance and Jiang Cheng realized she was already at the Emperor Realm Eighth Layer early-stage.
Considering she had been merely Emperor Realm Fifth Layer when she first entered the Daoist Field, such advancement speed was almost like riding a rocket.
However, in light of her ’Immortal Mother Reincarnation’ status, Jiang Cheng found it only natural.
"Fellow Daoist Qiu Yuxuan’s talent is truly earth-shattering!"
"The Heaven-Ascending Secret Realm has been around for so many years, with billions of talents fallen within; she is the fourth to succeed!"
"Furthermore, when she entered the Secret Realm, she was only Emperor Realm Seventh Layer early-stage."
"Such a realm makes her the lowest among the four peerless geniuses who succeeded."
"This makes it all the more remarkable, showing how incredibly gifted she is!"
"A future leader of the Celestial Palace, for sure!"
"Her future is limitless..."
Around her, those experts from other Daoist Fields, whether young or old, did not hold back their praise.
If merely an Upper Court Immortal becoming an Immortal Official, it would not warrant such attention.
After all, many of them were already eighth and ninth-grade Immortal Officials.
The key is that Qiu Yuxuan’s path to becoming an Immortal Official is astonishing.
Only four people have passed through the Heaven-Ascending Secret Realm since it opened.
The first three have become Daoist Venerables.
Clearly, Qiu Yuxuan’s future achievements will be tremendous.
The Supremes present did not exhibit their senior demeanor in front of her, each addressing her as Fellow Daoist.
Because what they faced could very well be a future Daoist Venerable.
Yesterday, Qiu Yuxuan had broken through the Heaven-Ascending Secret Realm, and in just a day, her name had spread rapidly to every corner of the Primordial Immortal Realm.
She became a renowned figure spoken of by countless immortals.
This is the significance of the Heaven-Ascending Secret Realm.
"Congratulations to King Jia’s Dojo!"
"Venerable Ji Cang, you’ve truly recruited a Supreme Treasure!"
"With a future Daoist Venerable, King Jia’s Dojo might soar to the skies..."
"Hahahaha, that’s too much praise..."
Ji Cang’s old face blossomed with joy.
In occasions without encountering Jiang Cheng, he was a very serious Great Chief of the Daoist Field.
Having a peerless genius emerge from the Daoist Field under his charge, he would likely be rewarded later, possibly even promoted.
"We have always closely watched Yuxuan’s growth from top to bottom of the Daoist Field."
Recently, to avoid Brother Cheng, Ji Cang, who had been busy shutting himself off from worldly affairs, skillfully praised himself.
"Her accomplishments today are also due to the careful cultivation from everyone in the Daoist Field..."
Then, he saw Jiang Cheng again.
That familiar figure.
Suddenly, his words stuck in his throat.
Damn it, why is this guy back?
He feared Brother Cheng the most.
Originally feeling happy about their long separation only to find this guy wanting him to cooperate in cheating and causing trouble with Wenren Sihai, leaving him flustered.
Yet, he was still overshadowed by him, unable to counter.
Because the matter of Qiu Yuxuan passing the Heaven-Ascending Secret Realm was too significant, even his death sealing had been interrupted.
Upon coming out and discovering Jiang Cheng had left, he was overjoyed.
The Plague God had finally departed; best never to return from his trials.
Especially when Jiang Cheng and Qiu Yuxuan had some master-servant relationship, he hoped no incidents marred this auspicious day.
This grand event, he had informed everyone else from the Daoist Field outside but not Jiang Cheng.
Who knew, this fellow just happened to return on this day.
"Why are you back?"
Brother Cheng was disgruntled by having his spotlight stolen by Qiu Yuxuan, so this question made him even more displeased.
"What’s wrong, can’t I come back?"
As the two exchanged words, everyone present immediately focused their gazes.
Seeing it was Jiang Cheng, Venerable Xi Wu and Celestial Venerable Hongqing hurriedly approached with joyful expressions.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, you’re back!"
"We’ve been worried about you meeting trouble during your trials."
