The Legend of the Great Saint: Start from the Sign-in at Mount Tai

Chapter 483 Meeting
"You brat, you've bullied me!"

"How dare you do this?"

Damn it! Damn it!

"I must kill him."

A series of furious roars, like the eruption of an active volcano, resounded continuously deep within the Yan clan.

At this moment, the entire Yan clan leadership was like a powder keg about to explode, filled with uncontrollable rage!

It was still the same grand hall, and still occupied by the same high-ranking members of the Yan clan.

After enduring it all the way, they finally couldn't take it anymore after Yan Yu and Yan Chifeng returned to the Yan clan.

Yan Yu never expected that he would set out with good intentions, prepare generous gifts, and personally go to the secluded place of the guide, wanting to meet Ba Xian and invite Ba Xian to visit their Yan clan.

They believed that this was already giving Na Ba Xian a lot of face.

结果
In the end, they were turned away by Ba Xian.

They not only failed to deliver the invitation personally written by Yan Yu to Ba Xian, but also...

After waiting for a long time, they didn't even get to see the face of the tyrant.

Ba Xian simply ignored them.

This is a complete slap in the face to the Yan clan.

This infuriated both Yan Yu and Yan Chifeng.

If it weren't for the fact that it was the residence of the guide, they might have thrown a tantrum on the spot.

Inside the Yan Clan's main hall, after Yan Chifeng recounted their experiences, the Yan Clan elders, like Yan Yu and Yan Chifeng, turned pale with anger.

If it weren't for the powerful protective array of the Yan Clan, their roars would have instantly echoed throughout the entire city, reaching every living being in the second city.

"Humph!"

"Who does he think he is?"

"He's nothing but a bug whose future has been denied by the Source of the Dao!"

"Calling him 'Overlord Immortal' doesn't mean he actually thinks he's become an immortal."

"He actually dared to refuse invitations sent to him from all sides, completely ignoring everyone involved and disregarding my Yan clan!"

"He's looking for death!"

Yan Chifeng's words were filled with murderous intent.

He was laughing, laughing because Ba Xian ignored him. His laughter was sinister and full of murderous intent!
The Yan clan acted swiftly, and the others who coveted the Source of the Dao were not far behind.

Almost simultaneously, they arrived at the secluded training ground of the guide, just like Yan Yu.

It wasn't just the Yan clan that planned to try diplomacy first, wanting to see if they could obtain the Source of Dao from Ba Xian in a more peaceful way.

Many other people are making the same plan.

Without exception, they were all ignored by Ba Xian.

Not only were their gifts and invitations for meeting the emperor unsuccessful, but they also failed to even meet Ba Xian in person.

Ba Xian completely ignored them.

They simply left Kane and the Golden-Winged Roc King to guard the entrance.

Anyone who came to report that they wanted to see the Overlord Immortal was turned away by Kane and Little Peng King.

The attendant who was acting as the messenger for Yan Yu and the others could only report the matter to the messenger in the end.

The guide said...

"Just reply truthfully!"

After receiving the guide's order, the attendant knew how to handle the matter.

He approached Yan Yu and the others, pointed to the pile of unsent gifts and invitations, and said frankly.

"I didn't see Ba ​​Xian, I only saw his two followers!"

"They told me that Ba Xian had anticipated someone would come looking for them, and that he knew about your plans!"

"They asked me to convey to everyone that the Overlord Immortal has no intention of transferring the Source of the Dao, nor does he intend to waste time engaging in pretense and deception with certain masked individuals!"

This is very Lu Zhou; he really doesn't have time to deal with Yan Yu and the other little karaokes.

After saying this, the waiter cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Yan Yu and the others present.

Ba Xian had the audacity to ignore everyone present. Although he was a servant under the Guiding Envoy and had the prestige of a seventh-rank official in front of the Prime Minister, he did not dare to act arrogantly in front of Yan Yu and the others.

Whenever they recall this scene, whether it's Yan Yu, Yan Chifeng, or any other person who was turned away, they are all filled with rage.

Bang!
This is already the umpteenth table in the Second City to be smashed today in the rage of some bigwigs.

Since he won't accept the toast, then we'll just have to invite him down to drink a cup of ghost wine.

Similar sentiments were not limited to the Yan clan.

It also rang out in other parts of the second city.

For example, in the residence of the current president, Yu Han.

Yu Han also wanted to meet Lu Zhou to discuss the matter of the Source of the Dao.

As a result, they were turned away by Lu Zhou again.

The undercurrents in the second city are becoming increasingly intense.

It also became increasingly noisy.

Because it took almost no time, the news that Yan Yu and the others wanted to see Ba ​​Xian but were ignored by him and were all turned away had already spread like wildfire in the Second City.

People were in an uproar!

I'm amazed at how incredibly powerful Ba Xian is.

He truly deserves the title of "dominant".

How dare they show such disrespect to so many important figures?

You should know that those people were a force to be reckoned with in the Second City for many, many years.

"What exactly gives him such confidence?"

"Or is there something wrong with his brain?"

"Otherwise, how could he dare to be so cold-hearted and offend so many important figures one after another?"

Similar sounds were heard frequently in the second city.

But many others were secretly laughing.

Among these people, a few were trainees from the same batch as Ba Xian.

The rest were mostly people who had suffered oppression and humiliation from forces such as the Yan clan.

Seeing the Yan clan and others, who had always been high and mighty, now lose such a great deal of face, they felt extremely pleased.

If it weren't for the fear of retaliation from Yan Yu and the others...

Who knows, some people might start singing and dancing in celebration as soon as they hear this news.

"How to do?"

"So many people have been turned away, should we still go ahead with our original plan to contact him?"

The one who spoke was a member of a different race.

Beside him stood several other alien beings.

If anyone knew them here, they would know that they were a group of underlings that Di Tian had recently taken in.

Because Di Tian was about to break through to the next level and it was not advisable for him to act rashly, he ordered his subordinates to sneak back to the Second City from the depths of the Ancient Star Road to help him seize the Source of Dao.

I also want to see if I can recruit Ba Xian to my side.

Di Tian's plan was similar to his plan when he was targeting Ye Fan in the original novel.

These alien races, because of Di Tian's current prestige on this ancient road, and because they had heard the news that Dao Zhiyuan had sentenced Ba Xian to 'death', all thought that this mission should not be difficult.

It might even be an easy achievement.

Who knew?
They had only smuggled themselves into the second city a short time before they heard the joke that Yan Yu and his group had all been turned away.

This made them all frown slightly.

On the way, they were still planning to contact their spies in the second city and have them send a formal invitation to Ba Xian, asking him to meet them.

The result is now
"Forget it, since he won't even give Yan Yu and the others any face!"

"And that goes without saying, the spy the Lord left in this city."

"Even if a spy were to come knocking with a formal invitation, he would likely be turned away before he could even mention the master's name!"

A moment later, the leader of the alien race shook his head and uttered these words.

A cold light gleamed in his narrow, triangular eyes, like that of a sinister venomous snake.

He had already realized that some of their initial ideas were largely based on wishful thinking.

This mission will probably not be easy to complete.

"So what should we do next?"

It wasn't just Di Tian's alien underlings who asked this question.

In a park in the second city, Qing Shi and Ling'er, who had also successfully smuggled themselves back, were discussing the matter.

After they heard about some things that had happened in the Second City recently.

Ling'er also spoke up to ask her young mistress for permission.

"Miss, the Immortal has closed his doors to visitors and refused all requests to see him."

"What should we do next?"

What should I do?
Qing Shi was also a bit at a loss at this point.

She had originally planned to find an opportunity to meet with Ba Xian privately after smuggling herself back to the second city. But now…
As far as she knew, ever since Ba Xian was personally welcomed into the Second City by the Guide and into the Guide's residence.

Ba Xian stayed in the Guiding Envoy's mansion the whole time and didn't see anyone.

During this period of time, everyone who sought an audience with the Immortal Ba Xian was turned away.

This situation has left Qing Shi completely at a loss as to what to do.

After much deliberation, Qing Shi finally uttered only the word "wait" from her red lips.

She decided to wait and see.

She refused to believe that Lu Zhou would remain hidden forever.

She also believed that someone would eventually get impatient and take action, and that might be her chance to get in touch with Lu Zhou.

As she thought this, Qing Shi's gaze unconsciously drifted towards the direction of the Yan Clan.

She is quite shrewd and worldly-wise, and she also spent some time in the Second City.

This gave Qing Shi a considerable understanding of some of the Yan clan's ways of doing things.

She believed that the Yan clan had missed the source of the Dao in Di Tian's hands eleven years ago.

Now that the Yan Clan has taken action, they will certainly not stand idly by and watch yet another source of Dao slip away right under their noses.

She believes that what she needs to do now is to wait patiently.

She was prepared for the worst.

"If I can't find an opportunity to contact him in the second city, I refuse to believe I won't find one in the third or fourth city!"

Words, once again, escaped from Qing Shi's red lips.

She had made up her mind that she had to see Lu Zhou, even if it meant following his trail and continuing to smuggle herself across the border.

She believed that there would always be an opportunity.

And so, the already turbulent Second City became even more turbulent behind the scenes.

Countless people are making preparations to plan the origin of the Tao.

"when"

Finally, another bell rang out in the second city, reaching the ears of everyone.

Upon hearing the bell, countless people in the Second City instantly raised their heads and looked towards the city square.

'Rumble'

This is the sound of wild beasts galloping through the air, trampling the streets.

One after another, a group of dashing and agile figures gathered at top speed toward the central square of the second city.

They were all chosen ones preparing to enter the Ancient Daoist Temple for trials.

At a glance, it is clear that this number far exceeds the number of the trial participants who entered this second city in the same batch as Lu Zhou.

Many people recognized that the extra people were mostly scions of families from various powerful forces in the Second City.

Some of the trial participants were indignant about this, as it clearly violated the rules.

But they were helpless.

They had learned from conversations among passersby that this was a kind of unspoken rule.

This situation doesn't only occur in the second city; it also happens frequently in other cities.

Regardless of who takes over as the guide, most of them turn a blind eye to this situation.

Without a sound, twelve gates appeared out of thin air in the central square of the ancient city.

That was the entrance to the Primordial Trial Grounds.

As these twelve portals appeared, the guide from the Second City also appeared alongside Lu Zhou and his group.

'Swish, swish, swish'

Almost the instant Lu Zhou appeared, countless gazes were immediately fixed on him.

Those gazes were filled with a multitude of emotions.

There is curiosity, amusement, and of course, hatred and murderous intent.

Meanwhile, there were also clamorous discussions about the Overlord Immortal.

"Miss, look! He's finally shown up!"

"He was indeed as the world described him. At first glance, he didn't seem like a domineering or forceful person at all. Instead, he seemed like a celestial being who had stepped out of a painting—peaceful, otherworldly, and everything about him seemed so perfect."

Perhaps it's because of Lu Zhou's appearance, or perhaps it's because of his temperament and the friendly smile that always graces his face.

In short, as soon as Ling'er saw Lu Zhou, she, like many female cultivators, developed a strong liking for him.

She subconsciously compared Lu Zhou to Di Tian.

It's hard to say about the rest, but right now she finds Lu Zhou pleasing to the eye no matter what.

Without Ling'er's reminder, the moment Lu Zhou appeared, Qing Shi, who had also concealed her true identity and face with a secret artifact, saw Lu Zhou's image reflected in her pupils.

In that instant, she was just like Ling'er.

Subconsciously, she began to compare Di Tian with the Lu Zhou she saw at that moment.

Suddenly, Qing Shi's heart skipped a beat.

Because, in that instant, she felt that the tyrant in her eyes seemed to sense something, and after slightly furrowing his brows, he suddenly looked towards her location.

'Such keen intuition.'
Qing Shi muttered to himself.

Before she could finish marveling at Lu Zhou's keen intuition...

Her gaze towards Lu Zhou intertwined with Lu Zhou's gaze towards her in the void.

She sensed a fleeting hint of doubt in Lu Zhou's gaze.

Immediately afterwards, Qing Shi vaguely saw that deep in Lu Zhou's eyes, there seemed to be strands of nine-colored divine light flowing.

In an instant, she felt that Lu Zhou had seen through her disguise.

The sacred principles of Tao shimmered against her fair, jade-like skin.

On the other side, Lu Zhou looked slightly taken aback.

He had indeed keenly sensed that there was a very powerful person in the crowd observing him.

This made him subconsciously follow his feelings and forget the past.

Lu Zhou immediately realized that the other party had concealed their true identity.

Without much thought, Lu Zhou used his already mutated Nine-Colored Origin Heaven Divine Eye to look at the other party.

It has to be said that Qing Shi's methods of concealing her appearance and aura are probably beyond the comprehension of even a powerful guide like the one from the city.

This goes without saying for the rest of the city.

But Lu Zhou was definitely not among those people.

His Nine-Colored Origin Heaven Divine Eyes saw through Qing Shi's hidden face in just one glance.

That's why Lu Zhou was slightly taken aback.

He never expected that he would suddenly see a stunningly beautiful face in this city that was in no way inferior to An Miaoyi and Yi Qingwu.

'who is she? '

This was a question that instantly arose in Lu Zhou's mind.

In an instant, a series of thoughts flashed through Lu Zhou's mind.

"Could it be her?"

Lu Zhou thought of Qing Shi almost effortlessly.

But he wasn't sure if the person he saw was actually Qing Shi.

Just as he was thinking about these things.

On the other side, Qing Shi smiled and nodded kindly at Lu Zhou from afar.

Qing Shi gestured with her eyes that she meant no harm.

They weren't spying on us before.

Like many others who came here, I simply wanted to see the majestic presence of the Overlord Immortal.

Qing Shi felt that Lu Zhou must have understood the meaning conveyed in her eyes.

She saw Lu Zhou nod and smile at her from across the void, then glance at Ling'er standing beside her before looking away and no longer paying attention to her.

A hint of doubt flashed in Qing Shi's eyes.

Because she always felt that Lu Zhou's last smile at her seemed a little strange.

Just as Qing Shixin had such doubts, the guide finished explaining some things to all the trial participants who were preparing to enter the Ancient Dojo.

Then, under the watchful eyes of everyone present, all the trial participants and the family members entered the twelve open portals.

Before long, the divine gate slowly closed.

Not long after, the Ancient Dojo welcomed a new batch of trainees.

This is a wild and untamed world, exuding an ancient aura.

Upon entering the Ancient Dojo, Lu Zhou discovered that he had separated from Kane and the others again, with only the Holy Spirit Dragon at his feet remaining by his side.

Lu Zhou did not go looking for Kane and the others. He sat cross-legged on the head of the Holy Spirit Dragon, letting the Holy Spirit Dragon carry him flying. He closed his eyes, his mind clear, and felt the Dao of this world.

Just like he was a few days ago, in the Crimson Trial Grounds and on Fallen Saint Island.

However, not long after, only a few days later, an uninvited guest with ill intentions came to Lu Zhou.

In two other directions, far from Lu Zhou, there were Kane, Golden-Winged Roc King, and even Hong Luan.
They also happened to encounter some people who had ill intentions towards them.
