Having cultivated myself into an immortal, all I want to do is raise female disciples.

Fan Luo Kui was a little different: "Three-Day Academy...? I remember that the people who faced off against Senior Sister Ye and the others in the Ten Thousand Sects Competition were from Three-Day Academy, right?"

Chu Xin nodded: "It seems so. Those two people from the Han family should have come with the main group from the Three Days Academy this time as well."

Jiang Yuetian looked at the vast crowd from the Three Heavens Academy with a complicated expression: "It really is a gathering of all the major forces. The Three Heavens Academy and the Emperor's Pavilion, one was founded by Emperor Wen and the other by the descendants of Empress Wu... I didn't expect that the descendants of the two True Immortals would all be here."

Indeed, Emperor Wen founded the Three Heavens Academy, while the descendants of Emperor Wu founded the Imperial Pavilion.

In a way, this can be considered a collision between two true immortals across time and space.

Jiang Shaoguang glanced silently at the people from the Three-Day Academy, and then asked.

"Speaking of which, have you seen the teacher?"

“Senior…” Fang Yan looked around but did not see the familiar figure: “I still can’t see him… He probably hasn’t arrived yet.”

“That’s true.” Jiang Shaoguang took another sip of his wine, then turned to Chu Xin: “What about your empire’s people? They should have arrived by now, right?”

"We arrived a long time ago."

The one who answered him was not Princess Chu Xin.

On the contrary, it was Fan Luokui—

She pointed helplessly to the small figure rushing towards her from behind, a look of helplessness gradually appearing on her pretty face.

The next second, Chu Chenxi's petite body turned a corner and cut in from the side, grabbing the slender waist of her beloved Sister Luo Kui.

The little girl kept rubbing her head against Fan Luokui's waist, making soft whimpering sounds.

"Sister Luo Kui~ Waaah... Chenxi missed you so much!"

Sure enough, just a few days after leaving Fan Luokui, Chu Chenxi started acting strangely.

While crying while hugging Fan Luokui, the little girl raised her head and glared at Chu Xin beside Fan Luokui with dissatisfaction: "Hmph, Sister Chu Xin is not good at all. She didn't even come to find Chenxi! Chenxi has been looking for you for so long!"

Chu Xin twitched the corners of her mouth, thinking to herself, "This girl hasn't seen me for so many days, why doesn't she say she misses me? Instead, she's blaming me?"

I'm clearly her biological older sister!

Noticing Chu Xin's predicament, Fan Luokui had no choice but to pick up Chu Chenxi and hold her in her arms. While stroking the girl's little head, she changed the subject: "More importantly, Chenxi, have you seen your teacher?"

"That weird uncle?" Chu Chenxi shook her head, thinking of Yun Ping's irritating smile. "I haven't seen him..."

"Then it must not have arrived yet."

"Speaking of which!" Chu Chenxi said as if she had remembered something. "Sister Luo Kui, I just saw people from the Northern Ice Palace! A very imposing older sister was leading a group of people. They should be arriving soon, right?"

"The Arctic Palace?"

Fan Luo Kui was taken aback, and then she and the others looked towards the outside of the imperial palace.

Sure enough, after the people from the Three-Day Academy entered the Imperial Palace, another group of people came in a grand procession from afar.

There were approximately three hundred people, all dressed in the simple yet elegant Taoist robes of the Northern Ice Palace. The person leading them was the current Palace Master of the Northern Ice Palace.

Fragrant green bamboo.

Among this group of people, Fan Luokui saw many familiar faces, such as the current captain and vice-captain of the Snow Cold Palace Judgment Team, and her former subordinates, Liang Jue and Xiao Yu.

Of course, there was also Li Xuanfei, who had long coveted the position of palace master.

Fan Luokui finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the people from the Northern Ice Palace had not brought any gifts.

It seems that her words had some effect; at least the palace master, Fang Qingzhu, chose to believe what Fan Luokui said in her letter.

"That's good...that's good..."

Fan Luokui murmured softly, her eyes filled with delicate emotions as she looked at Fang Qingzhu.

This former mistress of the Snow Cold Palace truly cared for her deeply. Making that decision must have drawn a lot of gossip from others in the palace, but even so, she decided to believe in herself.

With the arrival of the Northern Ice Palace, the atmosphere inside the Imperial Palace gradually heated up.

First came the sect leaders of the major sects, then Cao Qingluo of the Three Heavens Academy personally led a team to come, which can be said to have given the Emperor Pavilion a lot of face. Next, the Northern Ice Palace of the Desolate Heaven Domain came.

After that, more Heavenly and Earthly families from the Extreme Heaven Domain arrived one after another—since the Imperial Palace itself was terrifyingly large, and even contained countless spatial arrays, accommodating tens of thousands of people was not a problem at all.

Therefore, even with the convergence of various forces, the imperial palace did not experience overcrowding; on the contrary, there were still many empty seats.

This means that many more powerful people will be coming.

And that is indeed the case.

Not long after, another major force arrived at the gates of the Imperial Palace.

Their Taoist robes were blue-gray, and their numbers were not as many as a hundred as the previous forces. Looking around, there were only a few dozen people, but their aura was no less than that of the hundred-man army, and was even stronger.

The reason is simple—

Because they are the only force in the Kuntian Domain that has a chance to contend with the Emperor's Pavilion.

Blue Feather Heavenly Palace!

The number of disciples in the Blue Feather Heavenly Palace is not large. Even at its peak, there are only a few hundred people, not even a thousand. However, none of these hundreds of people are mediocre talents.

The Blue Feather Heavenly Palace is quite similar to the Three Heavens Academy. They do not recruit ordinary people without talent, but only recruit the most gifted and outstanding individuals, thus cultivating one after another great figure.

The strategy of Blue Feather Heavenly Palace is to win people over with quality, not quantity.

As it turned out, that was the right thing to do.

In particular, within the Blue Feather Heavenly Palace, there is a genius whose fame resounds throughout the world.

Blue sky.

Although she had no elemental constitution, she was blessed with the bounty of heaven and earth.

The Divine Eye.

Legend has it that in an era even more ancient than the past, when the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was formed, a divine pill was created by the condensation of the divine power of the Heavenly Dao. This divine pill transformed into a human on its own, and eventually absorbed the spiritual essence of Heaven and Earth, transforming into a three-eyed phantom beast. The third eye of this three-eyed phantom beast is the divine eye.

But where the three-eyed phantom beast went afterward remains a mystery.

Eighteen years ago, a baby girl was born, and those unique eyes that could see through the dust of the world from the perspective of the Heavenly Dao appeared on this baby girl.

That baby girl was Lan Tianyi.

If that's all there is to it, then Blue Feather Heavenly Palace really isn't a force that can compare to the Emperor's Pavilion.

The main reason is that there is a reclusive master hidden in the Blue Feather Heavenly Palace!

Everyone knows that sages are connected to the Great Dao and possess the power to have the Great Dao bestowed upon them. When they reach the stage of sages, they are mostly free from distracting thoughts and desires, so most sages choose to live in seclusion.

It's not just saints who can live in seclusion; there's another being even more powerful than a saint.

A fortune teller.

Second only to True Immortals, possessing power comparable to the Great Dao!

Coincidentally, there was such a demigod in the Blue Feather Heavenly Palace.

Xu Banxian – Xu Guangying.

This time, the person leading the team was not the Palace Master of Blue Feather Heavenly Palace, but the Grand Elder of Blue Feather Heavenly Palace, Xu Banxian!

He was a lean old man with a long, snow-white beard. He looked like an ordinary old man in his seventies or eighties. He wasn't wearing any special Taoist robe, just a gray cloth robe. He was leaning on a black cane, his back was bent, and he walked slowly, just like an old man wandering around in the park.

Only those eyes.

Yes, those eyes seemed to hold endless mysteries, eyes that seemed to see through everything, to be free from the constraints of this world.

Half-Immortal Xu Guangying, Sage Cao Qingluo, Palace Master of the Northern Ice Palace Fang Qingzhu...

One after another, they were all incredibly powerful beings that we could never have seen or even dreamed of before!

The fact that so many powerful figures personally came to the Emperor's Pavilion truly makes it worthy of its title as the number one sect in the world.

Just as everyone was stunned by the presence of the demigod, a loud and powerful voice resounded throughout the entire venue.

"Old Xu, how have you been?"

The next second, a burly middle-aged man fell from the sky.

He wore a Taoist robe with light gold and crimson hues, a confident smile on his square face, and a string of black beads around his neck. His appearance exuded an overwhelming aura.

No one knew where he came from; all they knew was that his shadow suddenly appeared in the center of their vision.

Immediately afterwards, he stood in front of the old man with a big smile on his face.

Before Xu Banxian could react upon seeing him, the people from the Blue Feather Heavenly Palace behind him knelt down in unison and shouted in unison.

"Welcome, Lord Pavilion Master."

Yes.

Pavilion Master.

If we're talking about a sect leader, at this time, there's only one person who can truly be called a sect leader.

The head of the Imperial Pavilion.

The true emperor of this world.

At the same time, he is also the second half-immortal in the Kuntian Domain, besides Xu Guangying.

King Gu.

86. Successor

The Pavilion Master of the Emperor's Pavilion!

This world, this Kuntian Domain—no, to be more precise, is the true emperor who rules over the three great domains, excluding the two Origin Ancestors.

Before this man, even the monarch of the Lantian Empire would probably not dare to call himself a king.

Although the king certainly had the pride of a king, this pride could not make up for the absolute gap in strength. In front of King Gu, any king of an empire was just a brute who called himself a king.

He is the only true emperor.

"He is... the current head of the Emperor's Pavilion..."

A hint of timidity unconsciously shone in Fan Luokui's pale golden pupils.

She had seen the ultimate beings, saints, and countless Void Realm experts—but the Pavilion Master of the Emperor Pavilion, this peerless powerhouse who stood above all cultivators in the world, was someone she had never met before.

Just by looking at him from afar, one could almost see the dazzling aura emanating from Gu Tianwang's imposing figure, and the vast imperial might naturally emanating from him. Although there was no fluctuation of spiritual energy within him, Fan Luokui still felt an invisible pressure on her shoulders.
