"Although Pill Sage Dongfang has some healing pills, there's no harm in letting Emissary Fan take a look at his injuries. It'd be bad if it affected him."
As soon as Fan Xianzhou finished speaking, another voice rang out. It was none other than Beichen Yue, the arcane immortal who'd accompanied Lu Xiaotian to the Heavenly Court.
"Beichen Yue, Emissary Fan has already made his decision. Are you going to treat Dongfang yourself?" As soon as Beichen Yue spoke, Fan Xianzhou was put in a difficult position. It was clear that Beichen Yue was dissatisfied with Lu Xiaotian. The other celestial immortals on the warship also noticed the commotion, but they remained in their rooms. They didn't want to worry about this.
After all, Lu Xiaotian aside, even Fan Xianzhou had to be polite to him. As for Beichen Yue, although his status wasn't as high as theirs, he was still Old Lord Qianhua's disciple. Even if he hadn't inherited Old Lord Qianhua's alchemy skills, his cultivation alone was incredible. He'd already passed the trial in the Arcane Pocket Realm and would definitely become a sky immortal. They didn't need to worry too much about him surpassing them in the future. They couldn't afford to offend someone like that.
In that case, what the eye doesn't see, the heart doesn't grieve over. They'd let Fan Xianzhou handle it. After all, Fan Xianzhou was the emissary to the Heavenly Court. The other sky immortals couldn't help but take pleasure in Beichen Yue's misfortune.
Heavenly Marquis Nie was also somewhat afraid of Beichen Yue. Putting aside his identity, Beichen Yue's cultivation base was enough to make Nie Tianhou wary. If Nie Tianhou were to suffer at his hands, there would be no way for him to explain himself.
But while Heavenly Marquis Nie was wary, Mu Xia wasn't. After all, her background wasn't any weaker than Beichen Yue's.
When Mu Xia and Nie Tianhou saw Lu Xiaotian's appearance, they knew that Lu Xiaotian had most likely used the Transcendence Mirror to make a projection and was injured by the backlash of the spatial force. In their hearts, they cursed Lu Xiaotian for being such a busybody. Why couldn't he just stay on the ship? Why did he have to cause trouble every now and then? Seeing that Lu Xiaotian was injured and seemed to be gaining enlightenment in his cultivation, Mu Xia and Heavenly Marquis Nie couldn't allow Beichen Yue to disturb Lu Xiaotian.
"Envoy Fan can't do anything about Pill Sage Dongfang because of his status. If he really did take care of him, he would go to the Jade Mystic Heavenly Court to challenge him. Envoy Fan can't go personally, so he's naturally afraid of Pill Sage Dongfang. However, this was not the time for Pill Sage Dongfang to act recklessly. If one person was careless, the Heavenly Court would lose face. Even Pill Sage Dongfang can't bear this heavy responsibility. "
Beichen Yue harrumphed. "Since I'm here, I need to minimize the risks. I can't just sit by and watch Pill Sage Dongfang do whatever he wants. "
"What a big accusation. If you have the ability, go challenge the Jade Mystic Heavenly Court's arcane immortals. You're making it sound so high-sounding, but in the end, Dongfang still has to do it. You have no sense of shame. "Mu Xia reprimanded Beichen Yue when she saw how impolite he was.
"Fellow Daoist Beichen, Brother Dongfang has always been a steady person. Even if he has some minor problems with his cultivation, it won't affect the overall situation. He also had one before his duel with Chu Zhaoyang. There's no need to be so overbearing." Although Heavenly Marquis Nie didn't want to offend Beichen Yue, he couldn't just stand by and watch.
"After Pill Sage Dongfang is defeated, I'll make a move. However, if I don't have to, I want to focus on my cultivation. I don't want to delay my ascension to the sky immortal realm. This matter is of great importance to me, so I naturally have the right to interfere. The two of you are just accompanying me on this trip. You have no right to interfere. Just stand to the side. "Beichen Yue grew even more impolite.
"You're using a chicken feather as an arrow. Senior Fan is the one in charge. Dongfang is busy cultivating. Don't even think about interrupting him. "Mu Xia wasn't about to be intimidated by Beichen Yue's words.
"Pill Sage Dongfang, do you want me to help you heal your injuries?" Fan Xianzhou was grumbling inwardly. In his heart, he was cursing his fellow empyrean immortals. They were afraid of trouble and were hiding like turtles. The responsibility fell on his head alone. None of these juniors were simple. Only Heavenly Marquis Nie was easy to deal with.
If it was any other ordinary time, then Fan Xianzhou would have directly slapped a Mysterious Immortal away if they dared to act so rashly. Why would there be so much trouble? Now that he was stuck in the middle, he had no choice but to treat them nicely.
"It's not that I don't want to, but now that I've made a breakthrough in my intent, I can't just let an outsider's divine sense enter my body." Lu Xiaotian shook his head. "It doesn't matter what Beichen Yue says. If he makes a move, Mu Xia or Heavenly Marquis Nie can stop him. With Fellow Daoist Fan here, he won't cause any trouble. I don't think the loser will complain, either," Lu Xiaotian said bluntly.
Heavenly Marquis Nie smiled wryly. "Brother Dongfang, it's not that I don't want to fight, but in terms of strength, I'm a bit weaker than Beichen Yue. It's fine if I lose, but I'm afraid I'll let you down."
"Don't worry," Lu Xiaotian said. "Either Mu Xia or Brother Nie is fine. It just so happens that I've gained some enlightenment this time. I'll lend you my intent. Perhaps it'll help you improve."
"Alright, Dongfang. Just stand to the side and watch. I'll stop him for you. But if he loses and you don't do anything, don't blame me for getting even with you. "Mu Xia nodded.
"You're looking for trouble." Beichen Yue's expression darkened. Then he glanced at Fan Xianzhou.
"Are you sure you're not going to do anything, Envoy Fan?"
"I'm in a difficult position. Pill Sage Dongfang is the main candidate to challenge the Profound Immortals of the Profound Jade Court. I can't just casually attack him." Fan Xianzhou spread his hands. Both sides were difficult to deal with, but Lu Xiaotian's plan was a good one. If Beichen Yue wanted to cause trouble, he'd let him deal with it himself. Mu Xia and Heavenly Marquis Nie stood in front of him. If they joined forces, they'd be able to stop Beichen Yue.
It wouldn't be good for him to attack either of them. But if it was a conflict between juniors, as Lu Xiaotian had said, no one would complain. After all, they were the ones who'd started it.
"I only wanted to let Envoy Fan take a look at Pill Sage Dongfang's injuries," Beichen Yue said. "I don't want to delay our trip to the Profound Jade Court. If something unexpected happens, I'll have to step in. But since you're looking for trouble, don't blame me for being rude." Seeing Fan Xianzhou act as if this matter had nothing to do with him, Beichen Yue was furious. Beichen Yue hadn't planned on fighting, but he couldn't back down now.
"If you want to fight, then let's fight. Don't be so long-winded." Mu Xia took a step forward. A dense aura surrounded her.
Beichen Yue pointed a finger at Mu Xia. A breeze blew toward her.
Mu Xia wasn't afraid at all. Although Beichen Yueji had come out of the Heavenly Glass Pocket, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Arcane Immortal Realm, and he was one step away from becoming a Heavenly Immortal, she wasn't much weaker than him.
