Surprised, Jiang Nan looked at Xi Zhong, who nodded discreetly at Patriarch Qiankun and whispered, "They're here."
Understanding his intentions, Patriarch Qiankun put on a mysterious look.
"Why are these two sneaking around? What are they doing?" Jiang Nan was puzzled. He stepped forward and led the crowd to welcome them.
In the Glass Palace of the Xuantian Palace, many Immortal Monarchs gathered together, sitting silently. Many Innate Primordial Water Deities of the Immortal Realm were serving them at the side, serving tea and water. Ever since Daoist Hong and Daoist Jun came to the Upper Realm, these Innate Primordial Water Deities had switched to the new Immortal Dao. Now, most of them were Golden Immortals or Primordial Immortals.
The connate water divine spirits possessed exceptional talents to begin with, and Dusk Province's rapid development in recent years had benefited them greatly.
After a while, Immortal Lord An Qing coughed and said, "We've waited for so long, but the sect master still hasn't arrived. Isn't this a bit of a disservice to our guests?"
The immortal lords nodded. They'd come together to collude with each other to force Dusk Province to hand over a portion of its territory, regardless of whether Jiang Nan had emerged from his closed door cultivation or not!
But now that Jiang Nan hadn't shown up, the people in charge of Dusk Province, such as Dao Of Gojoseon, Xi Yingqing, Nanguo Immortal Lord, Dongji, Mother Fuli, and the others, hadn't shown up either. Only a few true immortal attendants had come to greet them, which was indeed a bit of a cold shoulder.
However, they were all wily old foxes. They knew they could take advantage of the cold shoulder and force Dusk Province to pay a price!
Dusk Province was too big. There were sixty-three provinces in the world of immortals, but one of them was equivalent to twelve.
The other Immortal Monarchs only occupied one or two prefectures, but Jiang Nan alone occupied 12 prefectures. In addition to the Feng Prefecture ruled by the Dao King, there were a total of 13 prefectures. Therefore, even the ancient Immortal Monarchs felt somewhat indignant.
"The Xuan Tian Sect Leader is not an unreasonable person. Later on, we will get an explanation from him." Immortal Monarch Ming Fan smiled.
Everyone smiled knowingly. But at this moment, they heard a burst of laughter. The sound shook the void, causing it to shatter. It shook the Immortal Monarchs so much that their blood and Qi fluctuated. The phenomenon of immortal light behind them wavered.
"Hahahaha! I wonder what kind of explanation do you want me to give you? "
Jiang Nan was the first to gain the upper hand. Surrounded by many experts, he strode into the Glazed Palace Hall. His aura stirred up the auras of all the Immortal Lords in the hall, like a torrent that dispersed dozens of rivers.
Many of the immortal monarchs' expressions changed. Jiang Nan sat on the main seat and said with a smile, "Senior brothers, I've been in seclusion for hundreds of years. I've just come out of seclusion and all of you have come to congratulate me. I'm ashamed. Since you've come, then so be it. Why bring gifts? You're too polite. Youniang, what gifts did the Senior Brothers bring? All of you, go back! Go back! "
Ming Fan, Ming Tang, An Qing, and the other Immortal Monarchs froze and coughed.
Yue Youniang hesitated and said, "Cult Master, the Old Masters didn't bring anything …"
Old Lord Nature coughed and interrupted her. "I came in a hurry, so I haven't brought a gift. Little girl, come and accept the gift. "
He took out a jade pendant made of fine jade and his eyelids twitched. He coughed again and said, "I came in a hurry, so I didn't bring anything good. This jade pendant is a treasure I found in an uninhabited forbidden area. It's made of fine prehistoric jade and I've carried it with me for many years, refining it day and night. Congratulations, Cult Master, for your breakthrough."
Jiang Nan stomped his feet and said, "Dao brother, quickly accept it. How can I accept such a precious treasure … Youniang! You shameless little girl, are you trying to overturn the heavens? I told you not to accept it, but you still accepted it! Come back, I'm going to teach you a good lesson for disobeying your master's orders! "
Old Lord Nature persuaded, "Cult Master, don't be angry, don't be angry. How can a small gift show respect? Cult Master has come out of seclusion, so we should offer gifts to congratulate you. "
Jiang Nan reluctantly said, "I'll listen to Senior Brother and let this little girl go first … Youniang! You're so lawless, aren't you? Since Senior Brother Nature has given it, it's fine, but you're actually shamelessly asking for gifts from the other Senior Brothers! Don't stop me, I have to teach this damn girl a lesson today! "
Dao Of Gojoseon and Xi Yingqing quickly held Jiang Nan and said, "Cult Master, don't be angry, don't be angry! The Immortal Monarchs came with good intentions, so how can you not bring gifts? Besides, Youniang has already accepted Immortal Monarch of Nature's gift. If you don't accept other Immortal Monarchs' gift, it won't look good for them. Cult Master, don't embarrass the Immortal Monarchs! "
Jiang Nan snorted and sat down again. He covered his face and sighed. "My face has been ruined by this little girl, I can't face anyone …"
Yue Youniang lowered her head and walked in front of the Immortal Monarchs, reaching out her palm obediently. Heavenly Gate, Xu Ah, and the other Immortal Monarchs gritted their teeth, and their faces were like withered wood. One by one, they took out some treasures and handed them to the girl.
Yue Youniang walked around and kept the gifts. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly heard a loud shout from outside. "Goddess Qing Shang and Master Matsumoto have come to visit the Xuan Tian Sect Leader!"
Yue Youniang was delighted and quickly stopped in her tracks. She saw Qing Shang and Daoist Matsumoto walking over side by side. They cupped their hands and smiled. "Congratulations, Cult Master!"
Jiang Nan stood up to welcome them and said with a smile, "Fellow Daoists, I couldn't go to visit you. I'm ashamed that my coming out of seclusion has alarmed you. Please, take a seat."
Fairy Qing Shang and Daoist Matsumoto sat down. One of them was Ancient Maha, and the other was Shigemitsu Senkun. They were originally existences like Jade Capital and Xuandu, but they had fallen once. This time, they had reincarnated and became Immortal Monarchs. It wasn't difficult for them. What's more, the two of them had a fortuitous encounter that they didn't have in their previous lives. They were able to enter the Land of Source and collect Spirit Roots of the Celestial Dao. Their aptitudes and capital were stronger than in their previous lives.
Yue Youniang went forward shamelessly. Jiang Nan coughed and was about to ask her to leave when Maha and Zhongguang said with a smile, "We came to congratulate Cult Master, how can we not bring gifts?"
The two of them took out their gifts, and Yue Youniang quickly accepted them.
Jiang Nan glared at her angrily and shouted, "Damn girl, you're embarrassing me. Go and find a place to kneel and face the wall!"
Yue Youniang's face was miserable. She lowered her head and rushed out of the glazed hall with tears streaming down her face. Jiang Nan said apologetically, "I didn't teach this girl enough, so she lacks discipline. Senior Brothers, please forgive her."
Yue Youniang cried and ran out of the hall. When she was outside, she was beaming with joy. She took out a bunch of treasures and was overjoyed. Xi Zhong, Hua Zhenyuan, Sanque, and the rest quickly surrounded her and clamored for a share.
"Little Xi, you're my Uncle-Master, how can you take my things? Uncle Hua, you're too thick-skinned. I've already called you Uncle, and you still have the nerve to share mine … Sanque, you're a Buddha, aren't you supposed to be empty? All of you, stop! You have to hand it to Master later! "
"Cult Master won't want these things, he doesn't like them! He asked you to ask for these treasures so that you can share them with us! "
The few of them snatched the treasures and divided them up. Suddenly, they heard a loud shout, "Great Master Zi Xiao, Goddess Xuan, Immortal Monarch Skyscraping, Great Master Saint Devil, Lady Zi Han, Great Master Tianhuang, Great Master Wuxie, and Great Master Myriad Curses are here to visit the Xuan Tian Sect Leader!"
Yue Youniang's face changed slightly. She stomped her feet and said, "You came out too early. Little Xi, this time it's your turn to go, all the treasures you asked for are yours. "
Xi Zhong quickly shook his head and said, "I'm not going. The person that the Military Advisor asked me to keep an eye on is inside, I'm afraid of giving myself away. "
"Who is that person?" The crowd couldn't help but be curious and quickly asked.
"I can't say."
Xi Zhong shook his head and said, "The Military Advisor said that I can't say even if Cult Master asks."
In the main hall, Jiang Nan welcomed Zi Xiao and Mysterious Lady of Ice Soul and invited them to take a seat. He looked around and suddenly smiled. "Today is really a good day, how can I, the Xuan Tian Sect, actually let all the senior brothers gather in my Xuan Tian Celestial Domain."
The Immortal Monarchs looked around and saw that almost all the Immortal Monarchs of the Celestial World were gathered here!
Other than Qian Yuan, Yujing, and Xuandu, who were going to become Heavenly Monarchs, only Immortal Monarch Yuan Yu, Zu Qu, Fengxia, and Tai Yuan, who were rumored to be Dao Ancestor Wanxiang, were not here.
Even during the period of the two palaces, such a scene was rarely so orderly!
Ancient Maha smiled and said, "Cult Master, I and Matsumoto didn't know that Cult Master had come out of seclusion. We only saw the senior brothers coming and thought that Cult Master was in trouble, so we came to help. I didn't expect Cult Master to really come out of seclusion, and his cultivation had improved greatly, breaking through to the next realm. Why didn't Cult Master's tribulation descend when he broke through this realm? "
She had seen Jiang Nan break through to the Yuanshi Divine King Realm in the Land of Source, and the scene at that time was extremely terrifying. If it wasn't for the Great Dao Source Liquid, Jiang Nan would have definitely died!
Many others, including Zi Xiao and the others, were also puzzled. Jiang Nan didn't cultivate the Celestial Dao, so when he broke through to the next realm, he would definitely suffer a tribulation. It was really strange that there was no tribulation this time.
Jiang Nan smiled and said, "The tribulation in the Celestial World is incomparable to the Heavenly Tribulation in the Land of Source. The tribulation clouds were dispersed by the divine light above my head."
Everyone was shocked, and they looked at each other silently.
The Heavenly Tribulation triggered by an existence like Jiang Nan was extremely heavy, but they didn't expect him to say that the divine light above his head dispersed the tribulation clouds. Not many people could do such a divine power, right?
Perhaps only veteran Celestial Monarchs like Nature and Tai Zhen could do such a thing!
However, Old Lord Nature and the others were Di Wazun's disciples, and they were at the top of the Celestial World's Celestial Monarchs. How many billions of years had they cultivated? And how many years had Jiang Nan cultivated?
"What realm is Cult Master at now?" Immortal Lord Ming Fan suddenly smiled and asked.
Jiang Nan didn't hide it and said, "Divine Monarch Realm."
"Divine Monarch Realm?"
Everyone was stunned. Divine Monarch Realm was the sixth realm of the eight Divine Spirit Realms, so how did Jiang Nan's cultivation get worse and worse?
Old Lord Nature coughed and said, "Cult Master, this foolish brother has a presumptuous request …"
Everyone's spirits rose, and they thought, "Here comes the show! Xuan Tian Sect leader might have a lot of helpers, but we have more people. Be it reasoning or fighting, he can forget about gaining the upper hand! "
Just as Old Lord Nature was about to speak his real intention, Jiang Nan suddenly smiled and said, "Senior brother, wait a moment. Dao Friend Myriad Curses, you aren't here to congratulate me, right? "
Dao Lord Myriad Curses snorted coldly, and his expression wasn't too good. "Cult Master, I was chased by Zu Qu, Tai Yuan, and Feng Xia. They said that they would be able to recognize me even if I turned into ashes, and they tried to kill me without distinguishing between right and wrong. What does it have to do with me that you became an Immortal Monarch or Divine Monarch? I'm only here to ask for my clock back! You have to return the Curse Dao Heaven Altar to me! You should be clear of karma now, and you should know how much karma you have with me for stealing my bell and occupying my Heavenly Altar. This karma is huge, and you can't bear the burden of the billions of vengeful souls of my Curse Dao Era. If you return it to me, I'll resolve this grudge between us, and we'll be friends and not enemies! "
Jiang Nan pondered for a moment and smiled. "Alright."
He stood up and shouted, "Big Dragon, Big Dragon!"
Crack. The hall was squeezed to the point of collapsing. An incomparably massive dragon head reached over and spat out two streams of white air from its nostrils, causing the hall to shatter completely. It said in a low, muffled voice, "Why did you summon me?"
Jiang Nan pointed at Dao Lord Myriad Curses and smiled. "He wants to take back the bell on your neck."
The dragon looked at Dao Lord Myriad Curses for a moment before nodding. "The bell is indeed yours. I can see that your auras are vaguely connected, so I'll return it to you right now. "
Daolord Myriad Curses was trembling, and so were the other Immortal Monarchs. The ridiculously muscular dragon reached out with his claw and removed the Myriad Curses Skybell from his neck, then extended it towards Daolord Myriad Curses.
Dao Lord Myriad Curses was both delighted and alarmed. Just as he was about to reach out to receive it, he heard a clang and the Myriad Curses Heaven Bell fell to the ground.
Dao Lord Myriad Curses was stunned. The dragon swiftly reached out with its claws to pick up the bell and beamed. "Hey, I'm so lucky to have picked up a bell! Such a treasure belongs to whoever picks it up … "
Under everyone's gazes, the dragon did not have any sense of shame as it pierced the Myriad Curses Heaven Bell with the Connate Inextinguishable Spirit Light and hung it on its neck.
Dao Lord Myriad Curses' face was livid as he turned to look at Jiang Nan and grit his teeth. "Sect Master, leave the bell here for now. However, the Dao of Curses Heaven Altar …"
Jiang Nan understood and raised his head. "Dragon, he wants to take it back to where you sleep."
The dragon looked at Dao Lord Myriad Curses who was so angry that he almost fainted.
After Jiang Nan was done, he smiled and said, "Senior Brother Jiang Nan, where were we?"
"The older, the wiser. Youniang, your master is much more shameless than you," Outside, Sanque sighed.
