Another meeting with the Yellow Heavenly King.
Having reached this point in his train of thought, Ji Heaven's eyes flickered.
One of the leaders of the merchant alliances stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Immortal King, there are a total of thirteen merchant alliances here, as well as seventy-three other merchant alliances. Considering how important the competition is, it's only natural that we want to send our own people to participate in the competition. Three matches are too few, so we can change it to seven. The first to win four matches will be the winner!"
"Hmm. Does the Excalibur have any objections?"
The Yellow Heavenly King asked, his expression the same as ever as he looked at Luo Zheng.
"I don't have any objections."
Luo Zheng smiled in a carefree manner. His gaze swept across the thirteen members of the merchant alliance as he said, "I just hope that no one will renege on their loss."
"Hmph. You think too highly of yourself!"
"Don't get too cocky, brat. When the competition starts, you'll know how to spell the word 'death'. There are a total of eighty-six merchant alliances here, and there are as many experts as there are clouds in the sky. Your Excalibur is definitely going to lose!"
"Our Windcloud Merchant Alliance has a vassal who's at the peak of the Earthly Dharma level. He won't easily make a move, but you'll definitely see him when the time comes!"
When the merchant alliances saw that Luo Zheng had agreed, they laughed coldly.
"Alright, the competition will take place in half a month. You can all leave now."
The Yellow Heavenly King waved his hand, and golden light flashed. Then he vanished, leaving behind only the violet jade throne.
Luo Zheng didn't say anything. Instead, he led Sparrow Cloud and Xi Caiyu out of the palace.
He could tell that the Yellow Heavenly King was trying to protect him. Even if he hadn't agreed to change the competition to seven matches, he wouldn't have had any problems with it.
That said, Luo Zheng had subdued experts from the Profound Emperor Daoist Sect, the Cloud Cauldron Sect, the Flying Star Sect, the Dragon Gate Mountain Villa, and the Netherflame Society.
Now was the perfect time to reveal the power of the Divine Sword League.
Of course, Luo Zheng planned to use the Dao Defense League as a disguise. Otherwise, it would attract too much attention.
"Hmph, you arrogant thing!"
Seeing Luo Zheng leave, Ji Tian Ge's eyes were filled with killing intent.
"Brother Luo Zheng, come with me …"
Just as Luo Zheng left the palace, a voice entered his mind. With a thought, he followed the guidance of the voice and walked in the city.
Not long after, Luo Zheng and the other two arrived at a mansion.
There were already servants waiting outside the mansion, leading the three of them into a hall in the depths of the mansion.
"Brother Luo Zheng."
As soon as he entered the hall, Ji Woo stood up from his seat with a smile on his face.
"Brother Ji, so you were hiding here."
Luo Zheng smiled. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the Yellow Heavenly King's figure flicker and appear in the hall.
"Greetings Immortal King."
Luo Zheng wasn't surprised and bowed.
"Nephew, there's no need to be so courteous. Immortal King is a title used in front of outsiders. Since you're good friends with Ji Woo, you can call me uncle in private."
The Yellow Heavenly King smiled and said.
The Immortal King revealed his true form. He was no longer a golden figure, but a young cultivator.
He looked to be in his thirties, and his appearance was fifty to sixty percent similar to Ji Woo. The two of them didn't look like father and son, but more like brothers.
"Greetings Uncle."
Luo Zheng also had a good impression of this Immortal King level powerhouse.
"Who are these two fairies? Why don't you introduce them? "
The Yellow Heavenly King nodded and looked at Xi Caiyu and Qiao Yun with a smile.
"Many thanks for the Immortal King's praise. I'm Xi Caiyu, a demon from the Cloud Sky Star Field. I met Luo Zheng during my travels, so I came to the Immortal Martial World to have a look."
Xi Caiyu was the daughter of the Immortal King of the demon race, so she naturally wouldn't show any fear in front of the Yellow Heavenly King.
"Cloud Sky Star Field, Xi Caiyu? No wonder her demon blood is so strong. She's the daughter of the Flowing Gold Immortal King of the Rhinoceros Clan! "
The Yellow Heavenly King was greatly surprised and thought to himself, "This Luo Zheng is really lucky. The people he meets are all extraordinary. If they're not the eldest disciples of a sect, then they're the daughters of Immortal Kings!"
Seeing that Xi Caiyu didn't want to reveal her identity, the Yellow Heavenly King didn't expose her. He praised her and looked at Qiao Yun.
"I'm Qiao Yun. Greetings, Senior Immortal King."
Although Qiao Yun was enslaved by the soul contract, she only needed to listen to Luo Zheng. She was neither servile nor overbearing to the Yellow Heavenly King.
"Oh? You're the eldest elite disciple of the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect, Qiao Yun? "
The Yellow Heavenly King revealed a look of surprise. He immediately stared at Qiao Yun and said, "No wonder your sword art is so exquisite. Even the two elders of the World Wide Society are not your match."
"Senior Immortal King knows my identity?"
Qiao Yun was startled. She deliberately didn't reveal her origin because she didn't want others to know that she was the eldest disciple of the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect. This was to prevent the news from spreading back to the sect.
However, she did not expect that the Yellow Heaven Immortal King had already known of her origins. His current surprise was just an act.
"Your talent for the sword is known as a peerless genius in the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect. Although the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect is very far from our Immortal Martial World, this king has traveled the void and met several experts of the Mysterious Heaven Sword Sect. Naturally, I've heard of you."
