Chapter 2608: Junior Immortal Town
"For other Immortals, this Immortal Artifact may be valuable, but for me, it’s nothing! Just accept it without worry!"
Fang Bai could tell that the Qingyan Immortal King really liked the Immortal Artifact he gifted, but was worried about being reprimanded by his father. Fang Bai smiled and said.
"I heed the words of the Palace Master!"
The Qingyan Immortal King glanced at his father, then at Fang Bai, murmured, and reached out to grasp the Immortal Artifact in front of him.
Though he held his father, the Tianshu Immortal Emperor, in great awe, his father also had to listen to the Palace Master. Since the Palace Master had spoken, why should he stand on ceremony?
Moreover, a Superior Immortal Emperor Level Immortal Artifact, the most powerful Artifact below the Emperor’s Instruments, was such a grand gift, how could he possibly refuse?
"You..."
The Tianshu Immortal Emperor saw his beloved son accept the Immortal Artifact gifted by the Palace Master and shook his head in helplessness.
Fortunately, knowing the Palace Master was always generous and liked to nurture juniors, he said nothing more, quickly urging his son to profoundly thank the Palace Master for the gift.
Having acquired such a powerful Supreme Immortal Artifact, the Qingyan Immortal King was overjoyed, and any remaining resentment towards Fang Bai vanished completely.
In truth, ever since realizing Fang Bai’s true identity, he decided to cut off his infatuation with Liu Qingqing and Yan Muyu, maintaining only the necessary respect for them henceforth.
The Tianshu Immortal Emperor was aware of his son’s infatuation with Liu Qingqing and Yan Muyu, and was concerned about whether his son might act foolishly in front of the Palace Master, doing something to displease him. Thus, he had been closely observing his son, ready to rebuke him if he noticed any irregularities, to dispel any unrealistic thoughts.
Thankfully, when his son received the Immortal Artifact from the Palace Master, his entire focus was on it, not sparing a glance for Liu Qingqing and Yan Muyu, realizing that he had already let go of his inner obsession. The Tianshu Immortal Emperor couldn’t help but quietly breathe a sigh of relief.
"Palace Master, there are some other Emperor’s Palace disciples residing in the Junior Immortal Town we are currently in. If they knew you had returned, they would be thrilled."
The Tianshu Immortal Emperor calmed his emotions and said, "Please, Palace Master, come with me to the Junior Immortal Town to see them."
Being Emperor’s Palace disciples, Fang Bai naturally had to meet them. He nodded with delight and said, "Good. Lead the way."
Thus, under the guidance of the Tianshu Immortal Emperor and his son, Fang Bai, Liu Qingqing, and Yan Muyu followed behind, the five Immortals stepping on Auspicious Clouds, swiftly flying towards the Junior Immortal Town.
The square outside the Junior Immortal Town was currently gathering dozens of Immortals.
These Immortals were of all ages and genders, most possessing Immortal King Cultivation Realm, along with a few Immortal Emperor Realm experts at the initial and middle stages.
If one were to sense carefully, they would find that all these Immortals possessed a similar aura, evidently cultivating the same Immortal Technique Secrets, originating from the same Sect.
In the eyes of thousands of Immortals in the Junior Immortal Town, these dozens gathered in the square, no matter what adversity they faced, always stood united, advancing and retreating together.
And the esteemed Tianshu Immortal Emperor of the Junior Immortal Town was the leader of these dozens of Immortals.
Led by the Tianshu Immortal Emperor, these dozens of Immortals had been residing in the Junior Immortal Town for over a millennium, having long integrated with the Immortals of the town, indivisible.
Due to the overwhelming strength of the Tianshu Immortal Emperor and his fellow Immortals, the thousands of Immortals in the town always followed them with reverence.
Upon seeing dozens of Immortals gathered in the square outside the Junior Immortal Town, the Immortals in the town were intrigued, curious about their purpose.
Meanwhile, those dozens gathered in the square outside the town were exchanging transmitted messages, discussing the words left by the Tianshu Immortal Emperor upon his departure.
"When leaving, the Tianshu Immortal Emperor mentioned he had received a request for help from the Qingyan Immortal King. How are things now, I wonder?"
"The Qingyan Immortal King is the Tianshu Immortal Emperor’s only beloved son. If something were to happen to him, it would be a massive blow to the Emperor!"
"The Qingyan Immortal King possesses a sixth-grade Immortal King Cultivation Realm. Together with him are the Qingliu Fairy and Peach Blossom Fairy. The opponent prompting them to shatter the jade token and call for help must be formidable!"
"Should we go and check it out?"
"Given the Tianshu Immortal Emperor’s strength, if it’s something he can’t resolve himself, our involvement would be pointless!"
"Makes sense... Let’s just wait here then!"
"Hopefully, they’ll return safely!"
...
Dozens of Immortals communicated via transmitted messages, their gaze fixed on the sky, hoping for good news.
A few hundred breaths later, a middle stage Immortal Emperor Realm expert first sensed the aura of the Tianshu Immortal Emperor, raised his eyebrows, and exclaimed with delight, "It’s the Tianshu Immortal Emperor... They’ve returned!"
Other Immortals perked up, promptly releasing their Divine Sense to track the aura of the Tianshu Immortal Emperor.
In no time, several streaks of flowing light appeared within the sight of the dozens of Immortals outside the Junior Immortal Town, prominently led by the Tianshu Immortal Emperor.
"That’s great, the Tianshu Immortal Emperor, along with the Qingyan Immortal King, are unharmed!"
"The Qingliu Fairy and Peach Blossom Fairy are also safe!"
"That’s a relief!"
"I knew it, when the Tianshu Immortal Emperor steps in, there’s nothing that can’t be resolved!"
"The Tianshu Immortal Emperor is our anchor, as long as he’s fine... as long as he’s fine..."
Dozens of Immortals gazed upwards, observing the approaching streaks of light, clapped hands, and cheered aloud.
Some Immortals also noticed a stranger Immortal accompanying the Tianshu Immortal Emperor and his group, piquing their curiosity.
"Huh? There’s another Immortal... Who is that?"
"This Immortal is young, yet possesses a middle stage Immortal Emperor Realm Cultivation Level. I wonder which Sect’s distinguished prodigy he belongs to..."
"That Immortal walks side by side with the Qingliu Fairy and Peach Blossom Fairy, appearing intimate... What is their relationship?"
"Previously, the Qingliu Fairy and Peach Blossom Fairy often mentioned having a celestial companion. Could it be..."
"Oh my, if that Immortal is the celestial companion of Qingliu Fairy and Peach Blossom Fairy, wouldn’t the Qingyan Immortal King be heartbroken?"
"The falling flowers wish to follow the flowing waters, yet the flowing waters have no interest in the fallen flowers!"
...
Amidst the transmitted discussion among the dozens of Immortals, the Tianshu Immortal Emperor and four other Immortals landed on the square where the rest of them were gathered.
The crowd of Immortals joyously welcomed them, encircling the Tianshu Immortal Emperor and others, eagerly asking about what had transpired.
"Nothing much..."
The Tianshu Immortal Emperor cheerfully waved his hand.
"Why would the Qingyan Immortal King shatter the jade token to call for help if nothing happened? Tianshu, we are fellow disciples, also brothers. If something is amiss, don’t hide it from us!"
Amidst the crowd, an Immortal Emperor Realm expert commented, showing disbelief through transmitted messages.
"There’s a great piece of news to share with you! Come, let’s speak inside my Immortal Residence!"
The Tianshu Immortal Emperor led the way, indicating for Fang Bai, Liu Qingqing, and Yan Muyu to follow closely behind.
Dozens of Emperor’s Palace disciples walked along with the Qingyan Immortal King, noticing how their esteemed, powerfully strong Tianshu Immortal Emperor treated that unfamiliar Immortal with utmost respect, astounded.
"Qingyan, who is that Immortal?"
Some Immortals transmitted messages inquiring to the Qingyan Immortal King.
"You’ll soon find out..."
The Qingyan Immortal King gazed at Fang Bai’s figure, replying mysteriously, "Father mentioned there’s a major piece of news, you ought to listen attentively!"
