Immortal of the Nine Realms

Chapter 511: Kick Them Out

"Little Mirror, about the journey to Greenwood Sect and Three Thousand Dao Sect, give me an accurate number, don't beat around the bush."

Upon arriving in the Central Continent Empire, Fang Chen and Fairy Yu flew for several days without encountering any cultivators. They had planned to spend some spirit stones to have Mirror of the Universe provide them with the route. However, the Mirror of the Universe hinted that Fang Chen couldn't afford the spirit stones, and Fang Chen didn't think much about it.

Now that he saw that the cultivators here didn't know about Greenwood Sect and Fairy Yu didn't know about Three Thousand Dao Sect, Fang Chen suddenly felt a bit suspicious.

"Brother, it's not that I'm beating around the bush, it's just that the amount is too large. Even I can't accurately estimate it. I'm afraid that if I give you a number, I won't be able to give you results later, damaging my reputation."

Mirror of the Universe earnestly said, "Why would I not want to earn spirit stones if I can? I just don’t want to shake your trust in me."

"Why is the amount so large?" Fang Chen frowned. "It's just a single route, right?"

"To be honest, the greater the karmic entanglement, the more spirit stones are needed. Whether it's the Three Thousand Dao Sect or the Greenwood Sect, they are both heavily involved in karma. The latter is somewhat better because the karma is not related to itself but to an immortal tree planted some time ago."

"An immortal tree?"

"Yes, it comes from the Ancient Immortal Road. Because of the existence of this immortal tree, the Greenwood Sect is heavily involved in karma. Fortunately, this happened recently. Otherwise... I'm afraid you wouldn't even be able to afford to learn about the Vast Origin Fruit in the Greenwood Sect."

"It seems that the Greenwood Sect had a Golden Core disciple complete the Ancient Immortal Road recently and become an Immortal Seedling," Fang Chen pondered.

At that moment, the cultivators seated at the table stood up one after another. They raised their cups, and one of them said, "Daoist Wu, congratulations! I heard that your newlywed wife is from the Qinghu Family? That's an ancient royal family. You deserve a thumbs up for being able to become Dao Companions with them."

The old man in the red robe smiled happily. "It's just luck, just luck. Although it's an ancient royal clan, the Qinghu Family has declined for many years. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to marry into it."

As he smiled and drank with everyone, he secretly assessed Fairy Yu with a subtle lust in his eyes.

The old man surnamed Wu turned his attention toward Fang Chen and Fairy Yu warmly. "Excuse me, I heard you two are familiar with my wife?"

Fang Chen smiled and replied, "We have known your wife for many years."

"That's good, that's good. I regret not inviting more of my wife's family today. Since you two are acquainted with my wife, you are considered part of her family. Please enjoy the food and drinks. When the time comes, I will invite her to come out and meet everyone. This way, you three can catch up," The old man surnamed Wu said, smile widening.

After a pause, he looked at Fairy Yu and then at Fang Chen with curiosity in his eyes. "Are you two siblings?"

The man next to Fang Chen couldn't help but laugh and say, "Daoist Wu, you misunderstood. These two are obviously a divine couple."

The old man surnamed Wu squinted slightly. "Oh? You two are a couple."

He nodded with a smile and raised his cup to walk toward another table.

"My lord, the way that old man looks at me feels strange. It seems like he's not a decent person," Fairy Yu transmitted her thoughts to Fang Chen.

“Maybe he recognized our identities,” Fang Chen said with a faint smile.

It didn't matter what was on the old man's mind. If he, the groom, wanted to cause trouble, Fang Chen wouldn't mind gouging his eyes out and setting them to the side as he had his fill of drink. The way he looked at them was quite uncomfortable indeed.

With that in mind, Fang Chen remembered that the Twilight Eye was still stored in his storage ring. With that item, he only needed a few more spiritual materials to attempt to advance to the second realm of the Radiant Divine Eye.

The Radiant Divine Eye had already shown its might during his encounter with the Immortal Seedlings. The metal elemental energy he condensed was far stronger than the average metal elemental energy. It could withstand the full force of two Immortal Seedling bombarding it at the same time, one from the Giant Sect and the other from the Innate Dao Sect.

This was a feat that even a high-grade, yellow-rank treasure might not be able to achieve. The power Fang Chen wielded manipulating the five elements was stronger than the power a high-grade, yellow-rank treasure could unleash. It could even rival a peak-grade treasure.

If he advanced to the second realm of the Radiant Divine Eye, his power would increase significantly.

Suddenly, a thought struck Fang Chen. “Oh right, the Killing Spiritual Division members might know where the Greenwood Sect is."

Fang Chen took out a transmission talisman and held it in his palm.

[Does anyone know the location of the Greenwood Sect?]

Fang Chen waited for a while but received no response.

In the end, he decided that it was either that there were no Killing Spiritual Division members within a thousand miles, or, as Immortal Void Rush had said, they didn't bother to respond as they didn't like to interact much with each other.

Fang Chen was about to put away the transmission talisman when unexpectedly received a response.

[The Greenwood Sect is in the Immortal Dynasty Holy Land. Are you planning on joining in on the fun? I advise you to let go of that thought. Everyone is eyeing the Immortal Tree the Greenwood Sect brought back. It's not something ordinary people can touch.]

The Greenwood Sect is in the Immortal Dynasty Holy Land? Ning Tieniu's hometown?

Fang Chen was surprised and decided to ask a few more questions.

However, the person on the other end seemed aloof and did not respond to his messages anymore.

Fang Chen sighed inwardly, feeling rather worried. "Little Mirror didn't lie to me. The Greenwood Sect has been entangled in karma lately. No wonder Litte Mirror can't provide any information related to the Greenwood Sect."

It was such a coincidence that the Greenwood Sect had inadvertently caused some trouble now. This would affect their plan of requesting a Vast Origin Fruit.

Suddenly, the excited voice of the old man surnamed Wu snapped Fang Chen back from his thoughts.

"Everyone!" the old man called out loudly.

As he spoke, he led a woman who had a red cloth covering her head and was dressed in a red wedding gown to the center of the banquet hall. He loudly laughed. "I brought my wife to meet you all, so we can get familiar with each other. If you ever bump into my wife, please be kind to her."

The crowd laughed and responded.

"Daoist Wu, you’re being too courteous!"

"Daoist Wu, please rest assured, we wouldn't dare to offend her."

The old man's lips slightly curved upwards. He removed the red cloth covering his wife's head, revealing an extremely beautiful face.

Seeing her face, the old man felt intoxicated. It took him a few moments before he came back to his senses. Smiling, he invited, "Dear, let's raise a toast to our guests."

The Qinghu Ruler seemed somewhat numb, and there was a hint of reluctance in her eyes.

Fang Chen's face was covered in realization as he transmitted, "Little Yu, I might have misunderstood. The Qinghu Empire's ruler is probably being forced into this marriage."

He had initially thought it was a marriage alliance. After all, the Qinghu Empire’s ruler was only at the grand completion stage of the Foundation Building Realm, while the old man was at the grand completion stage of the Golden Core Realm. Marrying someone at the Golden Core Realm when one was at the Foundation Building Realm should logically be a happy occasion.

But that didn’t seem to be the case from the Qinghu ruler’s expression.

"You promised me that if I married you, you would release my daughter and my sister," the Qinghu Empire ruler said slowly. "Where are they?"

The old man surnamed Wu's face sank. The atmosphere in the room suddenly quieted down. The guest's expressions were both strange and understanding, as if they had seen this before.

The old man surnamed Wu smiled superficially. "Dear, this is a joyous day. Let's not bring up these unpleasant matters. Once you and I are in the bridal chamber, we will be a family. At that time, how could I harm my own relatives?"

After saying that, he started going around the tables and giving toasts. Before long, he reached the table where Fang Chen was seated.

The old man smiled ambiguously. "Dear, these two said they are familiar with you. Do you recognize them?"

The Qinghu Empire ruler was slightly taken aback and looked at Fang Chen a few times. Gradually, a hint of surprise appeared in her eyes. She muttered reflexively, "You're not dead..."

However, she abruptly swallowed the words down her throat and frowned. "I don't recognize them. Kick them out."
