A man from the Big Dipper, starting his charlatanship at Mount Tai.

“I understand everyone’s desire to invite me, but I, Pang Bo, am not a stingy person.”

"So... enough said, tonight, let's invite Ye Zi along! Let's head over next door! It's on me!"

The reason for going next door is that Pang Bo has recently figured out the nature of Miaoyu Nunnery, and knows that unless he gets the fairy's approval, Miaoyu Nunnery will absolutely not sell his body.

How can one tolerate a place where vegetarian food is priced like meat?

But... the neighbors next door are different!

You get what you pay for, that's what you call real value!

......

Li Heishui and Tu Fei also greatly admired Pang Bo's magnanimity.

After they said they would treat everyone, Pang Bo insisted on treating them to a meal first. This kind of friend who doesn't think about taking advantage of others... is someone you can get along with!

"Brother Pang is truly remarkable!"

"Brother Ye is tough!"

"Immortal Lin is both tall and strong!"

While complimenting Pang Bo, the two also made sure to compliment Ye Fan and Lin Xiu. After all, without Ye Fan and Lin Xiu, there would be no competition, and how could they have taken the opportunity to make a fortune?

"No problem! No problem! Let's go! Let's wait for Ye Fan! Let's comfort his heartbroken heart after he was expelled from the Holy Land!"

"Hahaha!!~~......Hahaha~"

"what?"

Pang Bo was smiling when he suddenly sensed something was wrong.

What's going on? Why did Li Heishui and Tu Fei's smiles suddenly weaken, or even disappear completely?

Li Heishui & Tu Fei: "........"

The two remained silent, only pointing quietly behind Pang Bo.

Pang Bo suddenly realized something, his pupils contracted sharply, his large, millstone-like face frowned, and he looked at the two of them with a questioning expression.

Li Heishui and Tu Fei remained silent, only nodding with sorrowful expressions.

.......

Seeing this, Pang Bo instantly lost all hope.

"Click click click~"

A few seconds later, Pang Bo turned his stiff neck and looked behind him. A beautiful figure in a golden fairy dress came into view. It was Weiwei!

At this moment, Weiwei's eyes were still bright, her demeanor still graceful, and her smile still gentle.

However, Pang Bo did not feel any warmth from Weiwei's smile.

Seeing the despair in Pang Bo's eyes, Weiwei asked softly:

"Pang Bo? You're inviting Ye Fan to hang out next door? Or... can I come along too?"

Pang Bo: "........."

In a matter of seconds, Pang Bo's brain raced, and he had already thought of every possible way to defend himself.

But... he didn't think there was any way to escape Vivi's watchful eye.

So... Pang Bo gave up struggling.

"Well, Holy Lord, I already know I was wrong."

"For this, I am willing to hand over all the winnings from this gambling to the Holy Land!"

Pang Bo only asked Weiwei not to expel him from Tianxuan like Lin Xiu expelled Ye Fan.

Vivi: "........."

Am I the kind of person who would kill someone without hesitation?

"However, it's really not good to let you keep so many resources."

"From now on, you can collect half a percent each month from the Holy Land, and collect the rest after 20 months. Do you have any objections?"

Pang Bo: "No! Absolutely not!"

"Holy Lord Vivi's handling of this matter is perfect. I also feel that I shouldn't have too much money all at once. This monthly distribution is just right!"

Forget about having any objections, Pang Bo was so moved that tears were about to flow.

From now on, if anyone says that Holy Lord Vivi is strict, he will definitely get angry with them!

Li Heishui & Tu Fei: "........."

While both were relieved for Pang Bo, they also felt that Pang Bo was really too pitiful.

Fine! Let them make up for all the enjoyment Pang Bo missed out on!

.......

Weiwei wanted to say something, but An Miaoyi began to announce the winner, so she had to give up for the time being and returned to her VIP seat.

As she and Yan Ruyu locked eyes, An Miaoyi spoke again:

"Next, please let the Immortal Venerable present the awards to the contestants!"

"beep!!"

As An Miaoyi announced, a long horn sounded from the center of the training ground, drowning out the clamor of the crowd.

Immediately afterwards, dozens of beautiful young women dressed in colorful cloud-patterned robes flew down to the jade platform in the center of the martial arts arena, lining up on both sides, facing the main road in the center.

At the same time, several more fairies from the Miaoyu Nunnery guided the four contestants.

After the four contestants reached the white jade platform in the center...

"Om~"

Golden light shone brightly in the sky.

A dazzling golden avenue stretched out from the deepest part of the Miaoyu Nunnery, over a hundred feet wide, like a flowing galaxy. Within the golden light, one could vaguely see celestial maidens scattering flowers and cranes dancing, while the sounds of Taoism lingered endlessly.

Immediately afterwards, four enormous phantoms flew out from the golden light. To the east was a green dragon, its scales and claws flying; to the west was a white tiger, its head held high and roaring; to the south was a vermilion bird, its wings spreading to block out the sun; and to the north was a black tortoise, its body coiled like a tortoise and snake.

The four spirits circled the golden road, bowing their heads as if paying homage to a monarch.

At the end of the golden avenue, a chaotic blue lotus slowly bloomed. The lotus petals unfolded layer by layer, and chaotic energy permeated the air, dyeing half of the sky a hazy blue color.

At the edge of chaos, a figure slowly walked over, his whole body seemingly shrouded in a hazy Dao radiance—it was Lin Xiu!

Ye Fan: "........."

Ye Fan felt that Lin Xiu's entourage was getting bigger and bigger.

However, why did these four spirits surrounding him seem so familiar?

.......

Upon arriving at Baiyutai, Lin Xiu looked at the four victorious contestants and a warm smile appeared on his face.

First is Jiang Tingting.

Lin Xiu walked up to Jiang Tingting, smiled, and patted her on the shoulder.

"Tingting is great, she did not disappoint her brother's expectations."

"Yes! Brother Lin Xiu! Tingting has been working very hard since she returned to the Jiang family!" Jiang Tingting nodded vigorously, her face slightly flushed.

Next up is Vivi.

Vivi was still wearing that golden fairy dress, with a cool and aloof temperament and lively eyes.

However, after seeing Lin Xiu pat Jiang Tingting's shoulder just now, a hint of anticipation appeared in her eyes.

Under Weiwei's expectant gaze, Lin Xiu patted her shoulder as well.

"He truly is the person I chose."

Weiwei pursed her red lips, nodded, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up in a smile.

Then came Yan Ruyu.

The demon princess, with her flowing black hair and ethereal beauty, stood quietly on the stage.

However, after seeing Lin Xiu pat Weiwei on the shoulder, a hint of anticipation appeared in her eyes.

Lin Xiu didn't show any favoritism; he also raised his hand and patted her shoulder lightly twice.

"Yan'er, I look forward to the day when you defeat your ancestor."

Yan Ruyu: "......."

Although Lin Xiu's encouragement made her happy, she wondered if he was being too demanding of her.

.......

Lin Xiu ignored Yan Ruyu's slightly helpless and resentful gaze and walked up to Ye Fan.

Ye Fan immediately straightened his back and revealed a bright smile.

"Holy Lord, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Xiu had already placed his hand on his shoulder.

Then......

"Click!"

Ye Fan's smile froze instantly, his lips twitched, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

"Little Yezi, I didn't expect you to dare to participate in the competition. Your courage and strength are quite impressive!"

Lin Xiu said with a smile, but he increased the pressure on his hand by two points.

Ye Fan grimaced in pain, but dared not utter a sound, only managing to squeeze out a few words through gritted teeth.

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty..."

"Haha~"

"Is that a compliment? I guess you could call it a compliment~"
