The two of them quietly enjoyed this rare moment of peace. After a long time, Qin Wentian spoke, "Qingcheng, when I came here, I heard many people talking about the pill concoction banquet. What's going on?"
"It's a grand gathering of our Unaging Immortal Mountains that happens once every ten years. The disciples of the various peaks would gather together and compete in pill concoction, testing their abilities. It's an extremely grand occasion. I was already there during the previous pill concoction banquet but because I was weaker, I couldn't participate. This time around, I will be participating as well." Mo Qingcheng spoke in a light voice.
"No wonder so many people came to the Unaging Immortal Mountains." Qin Wentian nodded lightly. "In that case, I will accompany you to the end of the pill concoction banquet before I leave."
"Mhm." Mo Qingcheng gently smiled. In her heart, she also hoped that Qin Wentian would accompany her to the pill concoction banquet. This wasn't because of vanity, she simply hoped that she would be able to spend a few more days with Qin Wentian. In addition, she could also tell the people of the Unaging Immortal Mountains that she already had someone she loved. In that case, those people wouldn't bother her anymore.
"I have a friend who came as well. Since there are so many people here to participate in the pill concoction banquet, the Unaging Immortal Mountains should have a place to entertain them, right?" Qin Wentian smiled.
"Mhm, there is." Mo Qingcheng nodded. "In that case, let us go and make arrangements for your friend first."
The two of them walked to the courtyard. Qi Yu quietly sat there, guarding for Qin Wentian. He knew that Qin Wentian came to see his wife and naturally wouldn't disturb them.
At this moment, Qi Yu turned and glanced at Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng. He felt that the two of them were extremely compatible.
"Qi Yu, this is my wife, Mo Qingcheng." Qin Wentian introduced.
Qi Yu nodded to Mo Qingcheng, "I pay my respects to Madam."
Mo Qingcheng saw how polite Qi Yu was to her and knew that the relationship between the two of them wasn't just that of friends. However, she didn't probe any further and merely smiled, "Let us go to the place where the Unaging Immortal Mountains receive guests first."
"Just do as you say, Madam." Qi Yu nodded. Cultivators did not care about such things.
Mo Qingcheng and the two of them continued on their way out. The ancient peak was extremely vast, and there was an area specially designated for receiving guests. The scenery was extremely beautiful, and on their way there, several people had strange expressions on their faces when they saw Qin Wentian beside Mo Qingcheng. This young man was walking together with Mo Qingcheng, and it seemed as though the two of them were extremely close.
When Qin Wentian saw that many people were looking at him, he laughed in a low voice, "My Qingcheng is always the center of attention wherever she goes."
Mo Qingcheng's lips twitched as she held onto Qin Wentian's hand. Feeling the warmth of Mo Qingcheng's palms, Qin Wentian also held onto her hand tightly, as though he was declaring his sovereignty.
A young man, Wu Xiu, had an extremely unsightly expression on his face when he saw this scene. He was also one of the people who admired Mo Qingcheng, yet Mo Qingcheng had always been cold to him. She couldn't even be bothered to say a single sentence to him, and was incomparably arrogant. Now that he saw her holding the hands of another man, he naturally felt jealousy in his heart.
"And here I thought she was so pure and holy. In the end, isn't she the plaything of others?" This young man felt jealousy in his heart as he silently mused, feeling extremely unhappy.
On their way here, Qin Wentian was the center of attention and soon became the topic of discussion for everyone on this ancient peak. The movements of the two of them were also constantly being monitored. After they settled Qi Yu down, Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng returned to Mo Qingcheng's residence together, causing a huge commotion.
This was especially so for the following period of time. Even if it was night time, Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng didn't come out at all. They even set up a barrier to prevent the immortal senses of others from spying on them, causing those who couldn't bear it to return empty-handed.
As the number one beauty of the Unaging Immortal Mountains, Mo Qingcheng's every action would stir the hearts of many. Right now, there was actually a man together with her. How could this not cause a commotion? Countless people started to discuss this.
"To think that junior sister Qingcheng is such a person. She doesn't care about her reputation at all."
"Yeah, I thought she was so pure and innocent. Who would have thought that she's probably doing something improper at this moment." Someone mocked.
"How can you all speak like this? Junior sister Qingcheng has long said that she has someone she loves and they are already married. This man should be her husband, what's so strange about her being together with her husband? There's no need to be so jealous of junior sister Qingcheng." There were also some righteous senior sisters who couldn't bear to listen to these rumors and spoke out for Mo Qingcheng.
There were also people speculating about Qin Wentian. A voice spoke, "This young man doesn't seem any different from others. I wonder if he has any background."
"He's definitely far inferior when compared to senior brother Qiu Mo. If he really is Mo Qingcheng's husband, her judgement is truly terrible. Why don't they break up? Such a beauty, even if they broke up, she would still be popular."
Outside, all sorts of voices rang out, even drifting towards the other ancient peaks. After all, there were too many people paying attention to Mo Qingcheng.
However, Qin Wentian and Mo Qingcheng couldn't be bothered with these discussions. No matter where they went, they wouldn't be able to control the thoughts of others. Hence, there was no need to bother with them. The prerequisite was that they didn't antagonize him.
The two of them lived in a world of their own. After being separated for so long, they naturally wanted to enjoy this rare moment, admiring the beautiful scenery of the mountain range. Time passed very quickly, the two of them didn't even take a step out of the mountain range. It was unknown how intense the commotion they caused outside was.
The pill concoction banquet was finally about to commence. Today, the disciples of the ancient peaks all headed towards the pill concoction grounds. Mo Qingcheng also stood up and headed there. Qin Wentian didn't go with her. When the pill concoction banquet was about to commence, most of the family members were only here to spectate. Hence, they followed the crowd and arrived at the side of the pill concoction grounds.
On the pill concoction grounds, Ye Rou saw that Mo Qingcheng was glowing with health and vigor. She walked to her side and lightly laughed, "Junior sister Qingcheng, I heard that you have been living a happy life these few days."
Mo Qingcheng frowned, feeling more and more dislike for Ye Rou in her heart. It was only because they were fellow apprentice sisters that she maintained a respectful attitude towards Ye Rou. But now, Ye Rou's words were getting more and more frivolous.
"This has nothing to do with senior sister, right?" Mo Qingcheng unhappily spoke.
"I'm just asking, I didn't expect junior sister to have such a huge reaction." Ye Rou laughed. "Don't you know that right now, everyone in the Unaging Immortal Mountains is talking about you? Don't you want to know what your fellow apprentice sisters and brothers are saying about you?"
"I don't want to know and I'm not interested either." Mo Qingcheng coldly replied.
"Hehe." Ye Rou laughed. "Your husband came here alone. Is there no one else in your clan?"
"Senior sister, does this have anything to do with you?" Mo Qingcheng's frown deepened.
"Naturally, it has nothing to do with me." Ye Rou smiled but didn't say anything. Her expression was extremely unsightly to behold. She promised someone on the main peak that she would help him pursue Mo Qingcheng and was promised many benefits. But now, there was no hope for her.
At this moment, a few figures walked over from the front of the pill concoction grounds. The person in the lead was a middle-aged beauty that exuded an extraordinary aura. Qin Wentian could tell with a single glance that her cultivation base was very high and should be at the peak-stage of the immortal king realm.
This woman should be the Pill Lord of this mountain, the master of Mo Qingcheng.
"The pill concoction banquet that happens once every ten years has always been a major event of our Unaging Immortal Mountains. The nine Pill Lords will lead the disciples to participate in this banquet and even the immortal emperor himself personally concocted a supreme pill as a reward. You all better perform well." That woman directly spoke. The disciples all bowed, wanting to fight for glory.
"Everyone came from afar. This time around, you all can participate in the pill concoction banquet together and witness the glory of our Unaging Immortal Mountains." The beautiful woman glanced at the crowd. Everyone smiled and nodded.
"Let's move out." With a flash of her silhouette, the beautiful woman soared into the air as the people beside her followed closely. After that, the disciples all soared into the air. Qin Wentian and the others also stepped out, flying towards the highest peak of the Unaging Immortal Mountains. Over there, was the main peak of the Unaging Immortal Mountains, the Unaging Peak.
The pill concoction grounds of the Unaging Peak were extremely spacious, able to accommodate over ten thousand people concocting pills. In the surroundings of the pill concoction grounds, there were tables and chairs, allowing one to view the scene in the pill concoction field while enjoying the immortal banquet at the same time.
"Friends have come from afar. If the Unaging Immortal Mountains' hospitality isn't satisfactory, I hope you won't take offense." On the main platform, a white-bearded old man smiled. Many people clasped their hands to express their politeness.
"The Unaging Immortal Mountains' hospitality is truly boundless." At this moment, a group of people walked towards the main platform. The people from the nine peaks arrived one after another, including the experts from the main peak.
Other than the elders of the main peak, there was also a group of experts with extraordinary auras. They were all from the Taihua Immortal Dynasty.
Qin Wentian and Qi Yu casually found a seat and sat down. He saw Mo Qingcheng who had already walked to the edge of the pill concoction field turned her head back to look for him as she smiled at him. Qin Wentian raised his fist, smiling encouragingly at Mo Qingcheng. For him, Qingcheng had sacrificed so much. He also hoped that Qingcheng would be able to find her own path of cultivation, regaining her talent and fulfilling her pride.
At the location where the disciples of the main peak were, Qiu Mo and the others noticed Mo Qingcheng. Qiu Mo's expression turned cold and the person beside him spoke in a low voice, "I thought it was the holy maiden. Who would have thought …"
"It's rumored that she stays in her room with someone else, not taking a single step out. I wonder what she is doing."
"It's that young man over there. He looks so ordinary, how can he be mentioned in the same breath as senior brother Qiu Mo?" Someone stared at Qin Wentian. Right now, Qin Wentian was extraordinarily handsome and had an outstanding demeanor. This person naturally wanted to belittle him.
Qiu Mo didn't say anything, his gaze was filled with unfriendliness as he stared at Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian could already sense many gazes on him but he was still as calm as ever.
"Those people are from a transcendent power in the Taihua Immortal Dynasty. It's rumored that the clan leader of that clan has an extremely high status in the Taihua Immortal Dynasty." Someone glanced at those people sitting together with the main peak's Pill Lord.
"Mhm, I've heard of it too. One of their disciples is a disciple of the main peak's Pill Lord and has extremely outstanding talent." Someone spoke.
"Are these people from senior brother Xue's clan? Senior brother Xue is a dragon among humans, his talent is extraordinary and his clan is actually so powerful. I heard that they are all experts from the Taihua Immortal Dynasty." The disciples of the Unaging Immortal Mountains also discussed.
"Not only are they from senior brother Xue's clan, there's one among them who is an elder of senior brother Qiu Mo and is extremely powerful. He is also sitting beside the main peak's Pill Lord and has an extraordinary status." Ye Rou spoke in a light voice. Many disciples of the Unaging Immortal Mountains had extraordinary backgrounds and some of them were extremely dazzling.
"However, this doesn't count for much. Junior sister Qingcheng doesn't even have Senior Brother Qiu Mo in her eyes. I wonder where junior sister Qingcheng's husband is from?" Ye Rou smiled at Mo Qingcheng who was beside her.
