Bai Xian took a deep breath, realizing it was time to fulfill his promise!
But for now, Li Cheng was surrounded by countless people, and the only option was to wait until after the assembly ended.
Gu Sanqiu rose into the air, declaring loudly, “The Pill League spreads across every realm, and as the Alliance Hierarch, it’s my great fortune to witness the emergence of the new generation’s leader—an event in a lifetime. Hereby, I announce that in three months, the Pill League will hold a month-long feast to welcome the new leader!”
“As the Alliance Hierarch, I widely invite all cultivators under the heavens!”
Li Cheng was somewhat speechless, wasn’t this a waste of a whole month?
However, Li Cheng had not anticipated that the Pill League would actually be widespread across every realm.
“Hehe, I specifically left three months for all the major powers to prepare. This month-long feast will surely draw countless powerful figures, and you will grow tired from accepting so many gifts!” Gu Sanqiu transmitted his voice.
Li Cheng nodded slightly, this was, of course, not in doubt.
The Pill League’s influence was immense, which faction wouldn’t want to curry favor?
Since he was the successor to the leadership, naturally countless forces would want to please him, and giving gifts was one of the best ways to do it.
Perhaps, it was the only way.
Currently, Li Cheng, who had stepped into the realm of Perfect Immortal Emperor, was not lacking resources. Therefore, he wasn’t particularly interested in the upcoming gifts.
Unless, they were gifts related to deities.
The events at Lord City’s Mansion quickly spread throughout the Divine Palace Region and diffused towards every corner of the Kunlun Realm.
At once, countless powers began their preparations.
In the Southern Domain, Mu Xingzhi gathered the high-ranking sect officials, “Two pieces of good news, esteemed elders, which would you like to hear first?”
“Now, Sect Master, everyone else offers one piece of good news and one of bad news for picking and choosing, but if it’s all good news, why differentiate?” the First Elder said with an incredulous face.
Mu Xingzhi, his face brimming with a smile, glanced at the First Elder. “Well, one piece comes from the Immortal World, the other from the Central Continent, which would you prefer to hear first?”
“Central Continent!”
“Immortal World!”
The seventeen elders each voiced their own preferences.
This time it was Mu Xingzhi’s turn to be at a loss for words. “Your opinions are divided. Well then, I’ll make the call—let’s start with the Immortal World!”
“Baili Changkong, our Ancestor Master, has sent word from the Immortal World. In half a year, the relocation will start. At that time, all immortals of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect will withdraw behind the scenes, leaving us in charge!”
Upon hearing this, all the elders brightened. This meant their status would not change—the Heavenly Mechanism Sect would still be under their management.
But surely, many immortals wouldn’t be content with such a role.
However, that wasn’t their concern. The Ancestor Master was there; he would make proper arrangements.
“Now, about the Central Continent, there’s news coming in—little apprentice uncle, hehe…”
“Damn it, just spit it out, man, why on earth are you laughing?!”
“Exactly, it’s about the little apprentice uncle, stop laughing, just tell us!”
Seeing the urgency of the elders, Mu Xingzhi composed himself and said, “Can’t I help it? Hehe, the little apprentice uncle has become quite the figure in the Central Continent—he has been chosen as the next leader of the Pill League and can ascend to his position at any time!”
“Pill League?”
The elders looked at each other; they had heard of the Pill League occasionally but didn’t understand it deep down.
Mu Xingzhi continued, “Stunned, right? The Pill League is no small matter. In the entire Immortal World, more than sixty percent of the Alchemy Dao Immortal Masters belong to the Pill League!”
“In that case, the influence of the Pill League must be incredibly vast!” Elder Seven exclaimed with shining eyes.
Mu Xingzhi nodded, “I’ve already sent this news to the Immortal World. The sects over there were taken aback.”
“Furthermore, three months from now, the Pill League is holding a newcomer’s feast, inviting cultivators from all over. What do you think, who should we send to attend?”
“Obviously me, there’s no need to discuss, I’m the most suitable!” the Seventh Elder hastily stood up.
“You’re not qualified. For this kind of affair, I’m afraid only the Sect Master can personally attend!” the First Elder said.
Mu Xingzhi cracked a smile, “See? The First Elder understands the big picture!”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone glared at the First Elder with resentful eyes, making him immediately uncomfortable!
Without a doubt, the Sect Master had set him up again, making him the scapegoat!
The First Elder secretly clenched his teeth, so be it, it seems he couldn’t escape the reputation of being the Scapegoat.
“That settles it then, I, the Sect Master, will go myself. During this period, I entrust all sect affairs to all the Elders!” Mu Xingzhi stood up, his eyes brimming with glee.
“There’s no time to waste. I’ll depart immediately, traveling through several transmission arrays will still take quite a lot of time.”
Having finished speaking, Mu Xingzhi’s figure had already appeared at the Eighteenth Peak, landing on the transmission array.
The Elders watched as Mu Xingzhi left, filled with helplessness. Who wouldn’t want to attend such an event?
But it was because of a single comment from the First Elder that the Sect Master had seized the chance, preventing everyone else from going!
Thinking about this made them even angrier, glaring resentfully at the First Elder once more.
The First Elder looked from his nose to his heart, feigning indifference, as if to say, “What can you do to me?”
“Achoo…”
As soon as Mu Xingzhi arrived at the stronghold in the Land of Chaos, he couldn’t stop sneezing.
“One could guess it with their toes, it must be the First Elder cursing me. Heh, keep cursing. Without you, it would truly be difficult to be the Sect Master!” Mu Xingzhi laughed loudly and boarded the Space-Breaking Shuttle.
As Sect Master, naturally, he needed someone to jump out at the right time to create opportunities for him, and the First Elder was doing that very well, always able to seize the opportunity… to take the blame!
Amidst his laughter, the Space-Breaking Shuttle entered a space wormhole, heading straight for the Central Continent.
In the Divine Palace Region, within Lord City.
Inside Li Cheng’s detached residence, the people from the Wordless Sect were somewhat reserved.
Bai Xian bowed with his hands clasped, smiling, “It’s all about fate. I never expected that finding Li friend would now bring my Wordless Sect back from the brink of death.”
Li Cheng smiled, “It’s just a coincidence.”
Bai Xian took a deep breath, gestured for the Sect Master and others to leave, then got straight to the point, “Li friend, could you spare three days? It’s about the Wordless Heavenly Scripture.”
Li Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, then nodded, “There are still three months until the so-called feast, so three days won’t make a difference.”
Bai Xian nodded, “Li friend, you have shown great kindness to my Wordless Sect. Even a hundred years of studying the Wordless Heavenly Scripture cannot express our gratitude. I will inform you about the location of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture in due time. For now, let’s retrieve the Wordless Heavenly Scripture!”
Saying this, Bai Xian stood up and took a few steps back.
Li Cheng watched Bai Xian suspiciously, wondering what he was up to.
The next moment, a faint fog began to surround Bai Xian, and within the fog, his figure actually transformed into a sheet of paper!
Li Cheng stood up slowly, “Is this your true form? Could it be the Wordless Heavenly Scripture?”
From the paper came Bai Xian’s voice, “Correct, and incorrect. My true form is only the first of a hundred and eight pages!”
“The billion disciples you wish to take on are the very last page!”
Hearing this, a look of astonishment passed through Li Cheng’s eyes. No wonder both he and Immortal Emperor Tian Yuan were unable to see through their true forms. As it turned out, they were actually part of the Wordless Heavenly Scripture!
As the voice faded, the paper became increasingly ethereal, the oscillations of space spreading. The illusory paper actually opened up a spatial passage!
