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

Just now, an incredibly powerful divine sense swept over...

"An exaggerated level of spiritual power?"

[I don't know how to explain it to you, it was an extremely exaggerated divine sense... In short... pay a little attention, something might be heading towards the Qin Sect.]

“Eh…” Lin Yuan’s expression suddenly became quite complicated.

It's the Immortal Capital again, and another incredibly exaggerated divine consciousness...

Okay.

This is really going to make things lively in the Qin Sect.

15. Birthday gifts

Although they were host and guest, the Qin Sect members did not have much conversation with the guests from the Immortal Capital, led by the Golden-Eyed Tiger Immortal, throughout the journey. Even when the Golden-Eyed Tiger Immortal made sarcastic remarks, the Qin Sect elders and others ignored him.

Faced with the people of Xiandu, their small Qin Sect was not capable of causing much trouble. Therefore, before their visit, Grandma Nine Fingers had instructed them not to have any major conflicts with the people of Xiandu if possible.

If they anger the Immortal Capital, the other party might resort to force and forcibly bring the Qin Sect under its control, which would lead to another bloody conflict. The Qin Sect does not want such a thing to happen.

But there is a limit to how much anger can be tolerated, and no one knows whether the people of Xiandu will anger the entire Qin Sect next.

The key to this is probably the Golden-Eyed Tiger Immortal who is in charge.

According to Huang Luo, this person was originally a well-known rogue cultivator in the Extreme Heaven Domain. By chance, he obtained a great fortune, and his left eye transformed from an ordinary eye into a golden tiger eye!

It is said that the tiger eye belonged to a type of magical beast from ancient times, named the Heavenly Radiance Golden Tiger. The Heavenly Radiance Golden Tiger King, who led the entire clan, had a golden eye. He once used this eye to fight against several saints and killed them one by one. This attracted the attention of the then-master of magical beasts, the Black Dragon King Jueying.

The two fought for several days and nights, but in the end, the Black Dragon King was slightly better and killed the Heavenly Radiance Golden Tiger King, and dug out the golden eye. Since then, no one has known the whereabouts of the golden eye.

Millions of years after the ancient era, a rogue cultivator named Zuo He found this golden eye in a perilous secret realm and gained its recognition and inheritance.

Zuo He, who possessed this golden eye, was discovered by the rapidly rising Immortal Capital. He is now one of the eighteen holy immortals of Immortal Capital and is hailed as a prodigy who is most likely to be promoted to Venerable Immortal within ten years!

Even in the Immortal Capital, his status was unparalleled. Among the Eighteen Immortal Saints, he was probably the only one who was different from the others.

The fact that Xiandu sent him here suggests they intend to take drastic measures against the Qin Sect.

"You seem to know him very well."

Upon hearing Huang Luo's explanation, Qin Shishi stopped in her tracks and turned around suspiciously: "You knew him before?"

"I don't recognize her..." Huang Luo shrank back, his tone unconsciously becoming somewhat submissive in the face of such a domineering woman as Qin Shishi: "But before I joined the Qin Sect, I did have a few friends in the Immortal Capital..."

"Oh? So you used to have a close relationship with Xiandu."

Qin Shishi narrowed her eyes and said coldly, "I've never heard you say that before?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Luo immediately swallowed hard, hurriedly waving his hands and explaining, "I noticed that you seemed dissatisfied with Xian Du, Senior Sister Qin, so I was just... afraid of upsetting you~"

"Humph."

Qin Shishi snorted coldly, then, without even glancing at Huang Luo, followed the elders of the Qin Sect into the main hall.

Huang Luo, who remained outside the main hall, reached out his hand and opened his mouth, wanting to call out to Qin Shishi, but he didn't have the courage to utter the words.

"Ugh……"

He sighed deeply, his face full of sorrow and regret: "I should have known better than to say so much... Now look what's happened, Senior Sister Qin is unhappy again."

"Ah...is my love story going to end before it even begins...?"

With Huang Luo's incessant lamentations echoing in her ears, Lin Yuan couldn't offer any comfort. She could only offer a bitter smile of sympathy while shaking her head and sighing inwardly.

"The teacher was right after all..."

"If you don't really like someone, why would you be willing to be a simp... How pathetic."

Feeling sympathy for Huang Luo, Lin Yuan followed Qin Shishi and entered the previously bustling main hall together.

just.

The moment Lin Yuan stepped inside, she could feel as if the entire hall was covered in frost. The air was no longer filled with the rich aroma of wine and food; instead, there was an indescribable chill.

The one emanating a chilling aura was none other than the old woman sitting in the distance on the main hall, dressed in a long purple robe, with an aged yet sharp and cold appearance.

The severed middle finger was a symbol of his identity.

Wu Lian and Yue Lian retreated to the sides of the main hall, while the Qin Sect disciples who had not come forward to greet the people of Xiandu also put down their bowls, chopsticks, and wine cups and stood up.

One after another, piercing gazes shot out from all directions, their target being the Golden-Eyed Tiger Immortal Zuo He, who was walking at the forefront and wearing the Immortal Capital Taoist robe.

cold.

The atmosphere in the main hall was not festive at all; instead, a chilling, desolate wind swept through the room.

How could Zuo He not sense the surging hostility? He grinned, squinted, put his hands behind his back, and strode into the center of the hall.

He looked around, seemingly finding it quite amusing: "Not bad, not bad, everyone stand up to welcome me... This is the proper etiquette for the Qin Sect."

The disciples of the Qin Sect suddenly frowned, and some of them even began to circulate their spiritual energy, looking ready to make a move at any moment.

Zuo He, however, seemed not to notice, his face still beaming with a smile.

He even put on an air of being the host, indicating that everyone didn't need to be so polite.

"Alright, alright, everyone, we've done the formalities, please sit down."

With such words, naturally no one would listen to him.

If looks could kill, Zuo He would probably already be torn apart by five horses and turned into five pieces of a saint by now.

However, it is not possible.

The disciples of the Qin Sect could only glare at Zuo He with annoyance and resentment, but none of them dared to make a move.

Zuo He's expression gradually turned cold. He looked ahead with interest, following the steps to see the nine-fingered old woman sitting on the bench.

The old woman lowered her eyelids, and her cold words echoed throughout the room.

"Please sit down."

Upon hearing what Grandma Nine Fingers said, the members of the Qin Sect finally sat down.

At the same time, Qin Shishi and Lin Yuan returned to their original positions, and Huang Luo naturally followed.

However, the seats were almost full. Zuo He looked around but couldn't find any seats reserved for him and others.

From the very beginning, the Qin Sect had not prepared any seating arrangements for the people of Xiandu.

"hehe."

Zuo He tilted his head, grinned, and smiled mockingly.

He had already guessed this outcome before he even arrived at the Qin Sect, so he never intended to sit down.

Because some things don't need to be discussed sitting down.

He glanced up at the grumpy-looking Grandma Nine Fingers, smiled faintly, then clasped his hands in a fist and bowed slightly.

Then he raised his head and revealed that seemingly harmless smile.

"I was shocked to learn that Grandma Nine Fingers is celebrating her 300th birthday today. I, the Holy Immortal Zuo of the Immortal Capital, have come with a hundred people from the Immortal Capital to offer my congratulations. I believe you have already seen our visiting cards, haven't you?"

Grandma Nine Fingers lowered her breath slightly, her pale hair swaying in the cold wind. She snorted coldly and then raised her right index finger.

Guided by the silk thread, the silver needles flew rapidly across the ground in front of Zuo He. At the same time, a heavy sword moved horizontally along the silk thread and landed precisely beside Zuo He.

The heavy sword was exquisitely crafted, and one could tell at a glance that it was a magical artifact. Several large black characters were engraved on the blade of the heavy sword.

Do not……

Anyone with eyes can see that the color shouldn't have been black.

Because it was blood.

It was a spirit sword stained with blood! But too much time had passed, and it had turned black.

"This... is your visiting card?"

Grandma Nine Fingers' voice was old yet powerful, and her tone carried a hint of barely suppressed anger.

One can imagine how the members of the Qin Sect felt when they saw this spirit sword fly horizontally to the front of the mountain gate.

Zuo He smiled slightly. Facing Grandma Nine Fingers' stern questioning, he calmly walked to the heavy sword, grasped its blade, and then kicked it with his foot, causing the blade to curl up in a half-circle. He then exerted force in his arm, and the sharp tip of the sword was immediately aimed at Grandma Nine Fingers above.

This move startled everyone in the Qin Sect, who all thought Zuo He was about to make a move.

But Zuo He quickly held his sword horizontally and carefully looked at the words written in blood.

"When the Master of the Qin Sect celebrates his 300th birthday, we from the Immortal Capital will definitely bring people to the Qin Sect to offer our congratulations."

Zuo He softly read the words on the sword, revealing an innocent expression: "These words are all from the heart, Your Highness, what is there to complain about?"

"..."

Using a bloodstained sword as a visiting card, and then throwing it directly in front of someone's mountain gate.

Despite having clearly made such a move, they are still pretending to be innocent!

Not to mention Grandma Nine Fingers and other members of the Qin Sect, even Lin Yuan, who didn't have a deep relationship with the Qin Sect, looked very unpleasant.

To be honest, the little girl didn't like the guy named Zuo He.

I'm really annoyed.

Especially when the other party insulted her musical skills in front of the mountain gate, she felt like the little queen inside her was about to jump out.

Although the audience was filled with indignation, Grandma Nine Fingers, as the head of the Qin Sect, did not show much emotional fluctuation.

His face remained cold and his expression hardly changed.

She had long anticipated that the people of Xiandu would come to provoke the Qin Sect.

“Since that’s the case…” She stared straight at Zuo He, as if trying to lock him in her sight: “Since you distinguished guests from the Immortal Capital have said you want to pay a visit, and even said you want to celebrate this old woman’s birthday…”

"Although it's not really my place to say this, this old lady still wants to ask one more question—"

"Gentlemen of Xiandu, have you prepared any gifts for our visit?"

Before Zuo He could answer, Grandma Nine Fingers' face suddenly darkened.

"But let's make this clear first—"

A terrifying murderous intent had already welled up in her voice.
