Towards the end, there were less than five people who hadn't been tested. Suddenly, a skinny youth with dark skin was chosen by the Immortal Master again.
Gu Zheng couldn't help but look at him a few more times. At this time, the chosen person was still standing there with a blank expression. He looked at the Immortal Master, not knowing what to do. From his appearance, it was obvious that he wasn't valued. He didn't expect that he would be chosen by the Immortal Master.
A pot-bellied man dressed in expensive black clothes asked again with an incredulous look on his face.
"Immortal Master, is there really no mistake? My family's Qing Qing really has Immortal Fate? "
One had to know that this person was only his illegitimate son. This time, his family had some matters to attend to and wasn't home. After thinking about it, he had only brought him along. He didn't expect such a surprise to come so suddenly.
The handsome scholars in front of him hadn't been chosen, and his son, who he didn't like, had actually made him proud. This made him feel like he was dreaming.
"Don't worry, I've already checked many times. There is absolutely no mistake. Your son really does have Immortal Fate. This is beyond doubt." Perhaps another disciple had appeared. The Immortal Master's originally expressionless face revealed a smile, and his tone was no longer as cold as before.
"Thank you, Immortal Master! Qing-er, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and kowtow to your master. " Seeing that his son was still standing there foolishly, the middle-aged man hurriedly said in disappointment.
"No matter, I don't have that many formalities. Your son can just stand to the side. There are still a few more people I'll test." The Immortal Master raised his hand and an invisible force supported the young man who was about to kneel down. He then said to his father.
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to the Immortal Master." That person hurriedly pulled his dazed son to the side and let him stand beside Luo Wei. He was also incomparably excited.
As the last few people went through the selection again, to everyone's disappointment, basically none of them were selected.
The others looked at Luo Wei and his son with envy. Luo Wei was one thing, everyone more or less knew him. But what was up with that person? Didn't his father say that he was a good-for-nothing who didn't know anything? It was too hard for them to accept that he was also chosen.
They couldn't help but think this way. Even their elders had the same thoughts as them. They felt that with so many of them, how could there not be any immortal fate? They all suspected that the immortal master was pushing them and was just unwilling to accept so many.
Gu Zheng was also a little surprised. He didn't expect to be able to pick two people out of so many people. This immortal master's luck was pretty good. One had to know that in the mortal world, it was already very difficult to choose.
Some people's Immortal Fate wasn't just luck. It didn't matter if you were beautiful or talented. It had nothing to do with you at all. From the moment you were born, it was already decided that unless you ate some heaven-defying treasures to change your aptitude, you wouldn't be able to make it.
Otherwise, Gu Zheng wouldn't have been able to find a suitable candidate even after looking at several cities in a row.
Not only did they have to have aptitude, but they also needed luck. For example, even if Ah Shuai and his sister had excellent aptitude, if Gu Zheng had not appeared, they might have lived an ordinary life for the rest of their lives.
If something good appeared in front of him, he would miss it if he didn't have the opportunity. If he did, he might find a ten thousand-year-old Vermilion Fruit underneath the rock.
Gu Zheng and the elder understood this principle, but the others didn't.
Some people even suspected that this immortal master was just a facade. However, due to his reputation, no one dared to say it out loud.
Gu Zheng looked at King Wei, unsure of how to comfort him. However, at this moment, he felt a rude gaze looking at him.
Gu Zheng turned his head and saw that the young girl beside the elder was staring at him with round eyes. As the elder didn't explain to Gu Zheng, she thought that Gu Zheng had used some weird trick to bully her grandfather.
Seeing her grandfather like this, of course, she didn't agree. She was just rolling her eyes at Gu Zheng. When she saw that Gu Zheng didn't react, she kept staring at Gu Zheng. Finally, Gu Zheng was alerted. He subconsciously extended his Divine Perception, causing the young girl to freeze on the spot.
At the same time, the elder also realized that something was wrong with the young girl. He hurriedly grabbed her hand and channeled his powers over, helping her to alleviate the abnormality.
However, the young girl was still unhappy. She wanted to continue glaring at Gu Zheng. In her heart, Gu Zheng was just a slightly stronger immortal cultivator. She wasn't afraid of him. After all, her grandfather had never let her down before.
But before she could do anything else, the elder seemed to have seen through her thoughts. He hurriedly stopped her and said sternly, "Don't provoke that young man.
"Don't provoke that young man. If I'm not wrong, his cultivation is not lower than that Immortal Master's. He's not someone we can provoke."
"What? Could this young man be an immortal? That can't be, right? How old is he? "The young girl covered her mouth and said softly, her tone filled with shock.
But looking at her grandfather nodding his head slowly, she was dumbfounded. Were immortals so worthless? Why was everyone she met an immortal? But she knew that her grandfather wouldn't lie to her.
Thinking that she had provoked an immortal, her pretty face immediately turned pale. She didn't know what to do, so she looked at her grandfather for help.
The elder had no choice but to pray that the young man would give face to the prince and let them go.
"It seems that Feng City has become a place of trouble. I have to leave quickly." The elder sighed in his heart.
But he didn't see that the corner of Gu Zheng's mouth revealed a trace of surprise and a hidden smile.
His lips moved slightly, and Gu Zheng immediately transmitted his voice to the elder. Suddenly, Gu Zheng's voice rang in the elder's ears.
"After this, don't rush to leave. Wait for me at the back door of the prince's mansion. I have something to ask you."
Gu Zheng's words were full of unquestionable orders. It made them feel that if they didn't listen to him, he would catch them even if they ran away.
Besides, would they dare to run away?
After the elder heard this, a bitter taste emerged in his mouth, making him feel extremely uncomfortable. But did he have a choice?
He really didn't have any other choice. He could only look at Gu Zheng's smiling eyes and nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.
Looking at the helpless young girl, he could only sigh in his heart. But in his heart, he was thinking, why did Gu Zheng want them to stay?
It seemed that the other party didn't want to let them go, but the other party didn't seem to be evil. Besides, he came here with Lord Xu, and he had heard of Lord Xu's reputation. Or did the other party have some ulterior motives?
But he was already in such a sorry state, and there was nothing worth remembering. The glory of his family was gone, and now there was only him and his granddaughter left. Could it be that the other party had taken a fancy to his granddaughter?
The elder's mind was in a mess, but at least he knew to comfort the young girl softly, so she didn't panic.
Meanwhile, after Gu Zheng saw that the old man understood his intentions, he turned his gaze towards King Wei. This little interlude didn't give him much time to react. Meanwhile, King Wei had already stood up and let out a heavy cough, instantly attracting everyone's attention. The murmurs in the courtyard also disappeared as everyone looked at him, waiting for him to say something.
Wei Wang walked down and came to the Immortal Master. He said gently, "Immortal Master, these friends of mine are all ordinary people. They don't understand Immortal Master at all. Please don't blame them."
"It's fine. This kind of thing can't affect my state of mind." The Immortal Master said in a deep voice. But his tone changed, "I know what they're thinking. But those people really don't have the talent. Even if they force themselves to cultivate, they won't make any progress. Why do they have to waste their lives like this? So I'll show everyone what I'm capable of."
He understood the meaning of the Immortal Master's words. He still wanted to stay here for a while, mainly because the Immortal Master promised to provide him with a batch of things that could completely replenish his shameful pockets.
Since that was the case, he didn't want to wait for the other party to speak. He directly said it himself.
Hearing the Immortal Master's words, everyone's last trace of dissatisfaction disappeared. After all, this couldn't be forced. They just felt some regret and unwillingness.
"Good. Immortal Master is indeed open-minded. Men, take these things away." The Immortal Master clapped his hands and said happily. This Immortal Master had given him a lot of face.
Soon, a group of servants ran over and took away all the things in the center. Everyone was no exception. They all left the center, leaving enough space for the Immortal Master. They all sat at the table at the side, watching the Immortal Master show them a few moves.
Gu Zheng just happened to be beside the elder, only two people away. However, the elder didn't notice that he was worried about meeting Gu Zheng. The young girl was curiously looking at the center, as if the matter just now had already passed. She was attracted by the Immortal Master's performance.
Standing in the center, the Immortal Master looked around. Then, a gust of wind rose out of nowhere, and the Immortal Master's body slowly rose up.
"Wow!"
Although they knew that this was the most basic flight of the Immortal Master, everyone couldn't help but be shocked. Who didn't want to fly?
A low chant came out from the Immortal Master's mouth. It was as if he was whispering in everyone's ears. But when they listened carefully, it sounded like it was echoing in the distance, making everyone's heart itch. However, they still focused on watching.
A faint layer of fire slowly retracted from the Immortal Master's hand. A small flame directly rose from the center of the Immortal Master's palm. At first, it was only the size of a finger, but it slowly began to expand. With a slight explosion, a small fire dragon appeared on the Immortal Master's palm, nimbly swimming around.
Before everyone could exclaim in admiration, the Immortal Master let out a loud shout. His palm suddenly struck forward, and a dazzling red light was emitted from his hand. A fire dragon about three meters long suddenly appeared in the air. It was the small fire dragon from before, and it constantly made various postures.
At the same time, the surrounding temperature rose slightly, making everyone feel as if they were in a burning furnace.
Gu Zheng disdainfully snorted in his heart. This was just the most ordinary magic. But when he thought about how the Immortal Master was just performing for these mortals, and how it didn't have much power, he reluctantly accepted it.
Otherwise, if this ball of flame was released, it would probably burn a lot of people nearby.
These people had their horizons broadened, and some of them were so excited that their faces turned red. Being able to see an Immortal perform magic was enough for them to be proud of for the rest of their lives.
The Immortal Master didn't ask too much. Right now, he was completely focused on controlling the performance in front of him.
Following another wave of his hand, a red light shot out from his hand and shot into the fire dragon below. The fire dragon faced the sky and roared. Its slightly red body directly broke into two, becoming two balls of fire that constantly flickered.
Following two crisp chirps, two lifelike little birds burst out from the fireballs. They flapped their wings and attacked each other in the air. Small fireballs were spat out from their sharp beaks and shot into each other's bodies. Although they didn't cause any damage, it was still too much for everyone to take in.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng couldn't help but praise this Immortal Master in his heart. With this exquisite control, he was definitely one of the most powerful people in the early stage of Fairy Immortal. Even Gu Zheng only had such ingenious control when he entered the Jin Xian Stage. He really didn't know how long the Immortal Master had stayed in this stage and forcefully honed his skills.
The birds quickly collided in the air again and turned into a big dog. It ran around in the air. Although it was still transformed by flames and its whole body was red, it was almost exactly the same as an ordinary big dog. It ran around the Immortal Master happily.
This series of performances completely stunned those who had never seen the transformation of spells. It should be known that ordinary cultivators couldn't do this. Basically, most of them couldn't see spells. Even if they were more powerful, as long as they were as big as a fist, they were also well-known figures.
"Your Highness, I don't recommend that you lose a small tree." The Immortal Master said faintly in the air.
"I don't recommend it. Immortal Master, please use it as you wish." The Immortal Master was stunned and immediately understood what he meant.
At this time, the Immortal Master pointed casually. A small ball of fire was spat out from the last bird and rushed to a small tree in the distance. As a result, as soon as it came into contact with the small tree, the fire wrapped around it and burned the tree into ashes. However, a few fresh flowers nearby were still swaying brightly. It was a sharp contrast with the small tree that had turned into ashes next to it.
At this time, everyone woke up from their stupor and kept praising the Immortal Master for his amazing skills.
The doubts in their hearts had long been thrown to the back of their minds. Now, they trusted the Immortal Master 100%. Their descendants just didn't have the fate to become an Immortal, so they couldn't blame others.
The Immortal Master looked at the expressions of the surrounding people and was full of pride. However, he couldn't let the Immortal Master perform for too long. The Immortal Master was doing this for his sake, not for these people.
"Immortal Master, I think it's enough. You should rest for a while."
In fact, the Immortal Master also felt that it was enough. After hearing the words of the Immortal Master, he waved his hand again. Then, the last bird all turned into a ball of fire and was thrown upwards, preparing to create a beautiful firework.
However, at this time, a ball of white light suddenly rose from outside the courtyard and flew over at an extremely fast speed. It directly intercepted the ball of fire in mid-air and dissipated in an instant.
"Who is it?" The Immortal Master suddenly shouted. He didn't expect it at all and couldn't stop it in time. At the same time, he looked through the wall outside the courtyard.
"Lord Ye Jian is here."
A guard promptly reported from outside, letting everyone know who had arrived.
"Ye Jian? I didn't invite him. Why is he here? "The Immortal Master's face suddenly darkened and said in a low voice.
"Your Highness, since he's here, let him come in first. You should know that the Immortal Master is already unhappy." The Immortal Master quickly said from the side.
The Immortal Master had already descended from the sky. His face was even more gloomy than the Immortal Master's. With one look, one could tell that he was very angry.
Someone had just ruined his last performance, so of course he was angry.
"Steward Ju, go get the Immortal Master a cup of tea and let him rest. Tell the Immortal Master that I will personally apologize to him later."
The Immortal Master glanced at the Immortal Master and ordered the steward beside him.
"Yes, Your Highness." The Steward Ju immediately left after hearing the order and went to do the Immortal Master's task.
Then, he signaled the guard at the door to let the Immortal Master in.
"Haha, Lord Wei Wang, congratulations on your son's recovery." A somewhat arrogant Zhang Huayun's voice came from the door. At the same time, a middle-aged man in black walked over with large strides. At the same time, a tall and strong middle-aged man with half of his face covered followed behind him.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng's pupils constricted. The other party was actually a mid-stage Sky Immortal. He was slightly more powerful than the Immortal Master from before.
Moreover, if Gu Zheng's guess was correct, the other party's aura still had remnants of the Snow Mountain's aura. The other party also cultivated the Snow Mountain's cultivation method. However, there seemed to be a layer of concealment on the outside, so that people of the same level could not detect it.
As the other party approached, the Immortal Master did not stand up. He snorted coldly, "Where's your brother? I only invited your brother, not you. "
His tone was filled with dissatisfaction. It seemed that not only was he dissatisfied with the Immortal Master's absence, people with discerning eyes could also tell that he disliked Ye Jian.
"Your Highness, please don't be angry. My brother has some matters to attend to and can't come personally. Didn't I come here to explain and apologize on behalf of my brother?" Ye Jian acted as if he did not hear the disgust in the Immortal Master's voice and said with a smile.
"Apologize? I think you're here to cause trouble. You're going to ruin my performance just like that? Do you think that your Ye Family is now powerful enough to look down on me? "The Immortal Master continued to snort coldly, his expression as cold as ice.
"Ah, this is my fault. When I saw a ball of fire, I thought that someone was trying to assassinate the Immortal Master. I immediately ordered my class to intervene. However, I did not expect that it was the Immortal Master's performance. Xiao Ma, why aren't you apologizing to the Immortal Master?" Ye Jian's face revealed a faint smile.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry. I was reckless." Ye Jian's guest said coldly. However, there was no hint of apology in his tone.
"Bang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a faint murderous aura suddenly came from afar. The guest looked over and saw that it was the Immortal Master from before. That sound was caused by her slamming the tea cup in her hand on the table.
"Forget it. I can't accept your apology. If there's nothing else, you can leave. I don't welcome you here." The Immortal Master also ordered them to leave.
Even the people around felt that Ye Jian was too much. He did not even give the Immortal Master any face. The Immortal Master was already giving face to the Ye Family by not taking him down in anger.
"Since Your Highness has said so, of course I won't be so shameless. However, there's someone over there who seems to be unhappy. Could it be that he has something against me?" Ye Jian glanced at the Immortal Master from the corner of his eyes and said provocatively.
