The young man waved his hand, stopping his subordinate as he berated, "Shut up, the Namhwang Clan has its own rules and standards. How can we violate them? This is the foundation of the Namhwang Clan's rule over the Southern Phoenix Immortal City."
"Yes." That subordinate bowed and no longer spoke. The young man then smiled at Qin Wentian. "I am Rong Xiao of the Rong Clan. I truly like this Purgatory Vermilion Bird. Since she called you her master, we can naturally exchange for her. Brother, why don't you give me some face? I won't let you suffer a loss and we can all be friends in the future."
Although this young man was polite, Qin Wentian and Jun Mengchen felt awkward no matter how they listened. Was he trying to show his extraordinary status by introducing himself?
"So it's Rong Xiao of the Rong Clan." Qin Wentian was enlightened. The young man smiled and inclined his head.
"Sorry, I've never heard of you before." Qin Wentian continued, causing Rong Xiao's smile to stiffen. Qin Wentian, was he joking with him?
"Also, my senior brother is also a guest of the Namhwang Clan. Don't think too highly of yourself. Scram now." Jun Mengchen's temper was still as irritable as ever. He couldn't stand the pretentiousness of this young man as he coldly spoke. Qin Wentian silently agreed to his words. He merely smiled coldly at the young man before him and couldn't be bothered to reply. Using Purgatory for a transaction, even if it was just a discussion, was an insult to Purgatory.
The young man frowned as he glanced at Qin Wentian. His temper was actually very good, he didn't get angry even after being scolded to scram.
"So Brother Qin was also invited here. I, Rong, have been rude. In that case, farewell." Rong Xiao indifferently spoke. After that, he turned around and left with his men.
"How arrogant." Jun Mengchen unhappily spoke.
Qin Wentian turned his gaze onto Purgatory, only to see her expression turning cold. He walked over and patted Purgatory's shoulder, "Purgatory, in the future, just call me Big Brother Qin. Don't call me Master anymore. If you don't listen, I won't let you follow me anymore."
Purgatory looked at Qin Wentian with an aggrieved expression. Her seductive eyes were exceptionally alluring, causing Qin Wentian to feel a little reluctant to be so strict. However, since this lass refused to listen to his advice, he could only use force.
"Yes, Master." Purgatory said pitifully.
"Why are you still shouting?" Qin Wentian said with a straight face. Purgatory raised her head, curling her lips as she called out, "Big Brother Qin."
"That's a good boy." Qin Wentian's expression softened as he rubbed Purgatory's head. This caused Purgatory to giggle foolishly at him, exuding hints of mischievousness. She naturally understood that Qin Wentian was doing this for her sake.
"Let's go and have a good stroll around the Southern Phoenix Immortal City." Qin Wentian turned and the three of them left together. Not long after, on the ancient streets of the Southern Phoenix Immortal City, three young men with extraordinary auras could be seen. The males were handsome while the females were beautiful, attracting the attention of many.
"Senior Brother, the Southern Phoenix Immortal City is truly flourishing. Earlier, that ancient palace actually had an immortal-king level innate technique. How terrifying." Jun Mengchen sighed as he walked through the crowd.
"You have to think about it. To be able to open an ancient palace of such scale in the Southern Phoenix Immortal City, how illustrious must the identity of the owner be? He must also be a powerful immortal king character. For us immortals, every time we break through to the next level, we would need a vast amount of resources. If immortal kings want to grow stronger, they would need all sorts of heavenly ingredients and earthly treasures.
"That's true. Senior Brother, look over there, there are so many beautiful women. It seems to be an Immortal Weapon Ancient Palace." Jun Mengchen pointed ahead. Qin Wentian and the two others walked over and glanced inside. Purgatory's beautiful eyes flashed with a bright light as she exclaimed, "How beautiful."
Qin Wentian glanced over and was similarly shocked. This was an ancient palace where divine weapons were traded. Not only were these divine weapons extremely powerful, they wouldn't be damaged even if stellar martial cultivators changed their sizes. Some of them could even fuse into their flesh and blood. Since they were divine weapons, they naturally had powerful defensive capabilities and also suited the pursuit of beauty by females. Hence, many immortal maidens favored them.
"How luxurious." Jun Mengchen sighed. Such an ancient palace was truly at its peak in the Southern Phoenix Immortal City.
"Do you like it?" Qin Wentian smiled as he stared at Purgatory.
Purgatory was a little embarrassed as she glanced at Qin Wentian. However, Qin Wentian was extremely happy. Purgatory was becoming more and more human-like. This was a good thing, it indicated that her spiritual body had completely transformed.
"In that case, let's go and pick one." Qin Wentian smiled. Without waiting for Purgatory to reply, he directly walked in.
Not long after, the three of them walked out. A beautiful fiery-red robe was draped over Purgatory's body. The threads of the robe seemed to be woven from the feathers of phoenixes, outlining Purgatory's figure to perfection. The robe was incomparably elegant, exuding both sexiness and nobility.
"Big brother Qin, it's so expensive. A single robe is equivalent to ten immortal-ranked weapons." Although Purgatory liked it, she still felt some heartache.
"Isn't it easy to get immortal-ranked weapons? We can just forge many in the Driftsnow Ancient City. It's good that you like it. I haven't given you any gifts yet. Just treat this as a gift." Qin Wentian smiled.
"As for the other two, one is for Princess Qing 'er and the other is for sister-in-law Qingcheng." Jun Mengchen who was at the side giggled. His senior brother Qin was truly awesome. No wonder so many beauties liked him.
"You are the smart one." Qin Wentian glared at Jun Mengchen. "Alright, we've strolled around enough. Tomorrow is the appointed date. Let's return to the inn first."
"Ai, every inch of land in this Southern Phoenix Immortal City is worth its weight in gold. Even the inns here are so expensive that the poor can't even survive. They can only sleep on the streets every day."
"This is the rule of the immortal realms. Only the strong are qualified to enjoy the best treatment and resources. Settling down in Southern Phoenix Immortal City, the Namhwang Clan will protect the safety of the entire city."
"That's true." Jun Mengchen nodded. After they returned to the inn, they sat in the open-air restaurant of the inn, sipping on tea as they stared at the crowd below. During these days, the number of people coming and going in this area had clearly increased. Clearly, there were many people who wanted to watch a good show and wanted to inquire about the news of the immortal banquet tomorrow. Naturally, there were also people who were invited here.
At this moment, a group of figures descended from the open-air restaurant. Upon seeing this group of people, the eyes of many gleamed with sharpness.
"It's people from the Shen Clan. Shen Yi is a heaven's chosen and it's said that he received an invitation from the Namhwang Clan. Could it be him?" Someone glanced at a white-robed young master among this group of people. He held a folding fan in his hands and was extraordinarily handsome. He directly sat down as his subordinates immediately went to order food and wine. Shen Yi's gaze was focused on the surrounding scenery. When his gaze landed on Purgatory, he paused for a moment before nodding to her with a smile before shifting his gaze away, exuding a graceful demeanor.
"Beauties are truly attractive. That beauty exudes an extraordinary aura and should have an extraordinary background. The young man beside her also exudes an extraordinary aura." Someone noticed this scene and spoke in a low voice.
"But no matter how extraordinary he is, can he be compared to Shen Yi? He's the young master of the Shen Clan and has terrifying talent. He was once ranked within the top three of the Immortal Ascension Rankings in the City of Ancient Emperors."
"That's true. If Shen Yi pursues this woman, he would surely regret the fact that it was so easy for him to woo her." Everyone discussed in a low voice. Qin Wentian didn't mind. He stared at the unhappy Purgatory and smiled, "Beauties will always be the center of attention no matter where they go. Purgatory, you should be happy instead. This only means that your charm is greater than mine."
"Not interested." Purgatory coldly replied. The people of the Southern Phoenix Immortal City were all extremely bold in their conversations. Because of safety, they dared to casually discuss some things.
"Brother Shen, why are you drinking alone here?" At this moment, a voice drifted over. A few more figures descended from the air. The person who spoke was clad in golden robes that shone with a resplendent light.
"People from the Gold Clan." Everyone stared at the experts descending from the air. They were clad in resplendent golden armor and were incomparably dazzling. No matter where they went, they would be the most dazzling existences. This was the symbol of the Gold Clan.
"The people of the Gold Clan established an immortal empire and are incomparably powerful. Seems like there are princes of immortal empires invited here to participate in the immortal banquet hosted by the Namhwang Clan. There are so many geniuses here, the Namhwang Clan is going to be lively."
"Seems like there are quite a few disciples from immortal-emperor ranked powers in the southern regions of the immortal realms who were invited here. I wonder which holy maiden of the Namhwang Clan would be the victor this time around."
Everyone discussed. Jun Mengchen stared at Qin Wentian and asked in a low voice, "Is it really like what the rumors say?"
"Maybe. We will know tomorrow. Let's return." Qin Wentian faintly spoke. Purgatory immediately stood up and followed after him. Jun Mengchen initially wanted to take a look but when he saw that Qin Wentian wasn't interested, he decided to leave together with them.
On the second morning, the three of them left the inn and sped towards the Namhwang Clan. On the way there, they encountered many terrifying experts. Just like what the rumors said, there were many experts from the major powers of the Southern Region here.
