Jing Feng was not unfamiliar with the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint. After all, it was a supre organisation that ranked second on the Hall Brilliance Heaven.
Now, a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint was personally visiting Jian Chen. If this had occurred before the appraisal fair, Jing Feng would definitely be very shocked.
But after experiencing the events of the appraisal fair, Jing Feng had already grown numb. Even the city lord of the Immortal Rising City, a mighty Immortal Exalt, treated Jian Chen courteously. As such, it seed rather normal now that a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint was visiting him.
“Let him in,” Jian Chen said calmly.
“Yes, senior!” Jing Feng accepted the order and imdiately backed down. By Jian Chen’s side, he seed more like an old servant, specially handling so miscellaneous affairs for him.
“Mumu, you should go as well. I’ll hold onto the Nine Limits Saint’s fortune for now. I’ll give it to you when you break through to Golden Immortal,” Jian Chen said to Jing Mumu after Jing Feng had left.
“Alright, master. Then I’ll go and cultivate now!” Jing Mumu was ecstatic, running off happily.
Soon after Jing Mumu had left, Jing Feng brought a ruddy old man over to Jian Chen.
The old man studied Jian Chen first. Seeing how composed he was, without being overwheld by his presence, he finally seed to confirm sothing inside. He clasped his fist and bowed towards Jian Chen. “I am Xia Zhilai. I am a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint. Greetings, senior!”
Xia Zhilai clearly failed to see through Jian Chen’s cultivation. Coupled with how Jian Chen was clearly unfazed by a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint, he subconsciously treated Jian Chen as a powerful Immortal Exalt.
Such a person also happened to be the one he was looking for.
“The two of us are both Immortal Emperors. I would be of the Sixth Heavenly Layer, while you’re at the Seventh Heavenly Layer. You’re clearly stronger than , so I really can’t accept being called senior,” Jian Chen said calmly.
When he heard that, the great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint, Xia Zhilai, was visibly taken aback. He subconsciously glanced around and said in complete surprise, “Fellow, you’re actually an Immortal Emperor as well? May I ask if the master of this place is currently present?”
“I rented this courtyard. If you’re looking for the master of this place, it should be very easy given the abilities and thods of your Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint,” Jian Chen said casually.
“You flatter us, fellow. The master I’m referring to is not the owner of this property.” Xia Zhilai shook his head gently. He paused for a mont before continuing, “I’ll be honest. I’ve co this ti because I sensed the presence of the Energy-devouring Furnace through a secret treasure.”
“The Energy-devouring Furnace is one of the treasures of our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint. We cannot afford to lose it, which is why I specially ca to investigate.”
“The Energy-devouring Furnace? So you ca for that thing. You should have told sooner. It happens to be in my possession.” Jian Chen’s lips curled. Shortly afterwards, he reached out, and the Energy-devouring Furnace that had already shrunk to the size of a hand appeared in his palm.
“Is it this?” Jian Chen looked at Xia Zhilai with a faint smile.
“The Energy-devouring Furnace! I-i-it’s actually in your possession?” Xia Zhilai’s gaze was imdiately drawn away by the Energy-devouring Furnace. His face was filled with surprise.
Before he had co here, he had paid a visit to the city lord’s estate. He brought the will of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint with him, asking Immortal Exalt Tan Yu to return the Energy-devouring Furnace. However, he was told that the Energy-devouring Furnace was not in Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s possession.
Under Xia Zhilai’s probings, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu made no attempt to hide it. He directly told him that the Energy-devouring Furnace had fallen into the hands of the saviour of the Immortal Rising City.
Immortal Exalt Tan Yu did not disclose the saviour’s identity, but that could not stump the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint. They carried out a simple investigation. Coupled with the events of the appraisal fair, they locked onto this courtyard very quickly.
In Xia Zhilai’s eyes, the courtyard must have been hiding an extrely powerful Immortal Exalt who could easily kill the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master, which was why he behaved so courteously in the beginning.
The Energy-devouring Furnace must have ended up in the hands of that Immortal Exalt as well.
But right now, the Energy-devouring Furnace was in the possession of soone who claid to be an Immortal Emperor, whose strength was even beneath his own. That obviously left him stunned.
The current events ford an extrely great contrast against his initial thoughts.
“I don’t just have the Energy-devouring Furnace. I also have this.” As Jian Chen said that, another item appeared in his hand.
It was a chain that glistened brightly, emanating with the ripples in space, giving off the might of a high quality god artifact.
From the mont he accepted the Energy-devouring Furnace from Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, he had agreed to bear the consequences of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint. Now that the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint had co knocking, there was obviously no need for Jian Chen to keep hiding. He had to make the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint turn their attention towards him.
“Is that the Heaven-locking Chains? That’s actually in your possession too?” Xia Zhilai was startled at first before becoming overjoyed. He imdiately eased up.
His mission for setting out this ti was to retrieve the two lost high quality god aritfacts of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint. Originally, he thought it would be an extrely difficult mission, one that he would struggle to complete. He had never imagined that he would locate the two god artifacts so quickly.
That took him by surprise and left him overjoyed.
“Fantastic. This is absolutely fantastic. I never thought that both of our lost high quality god artifacts would be with you.” Xia Zhilai bowed deeply towards Jian Chen and said politely, “Fellow, may I ask what your demands are for our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint to exchange these two items from you?”
“You want to take these two high quality god artifacts back?” Jian Chen smiled slightly and said, “Get the ancestors of your Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint to discuss this with personally.”
When he heard that, Xia Zhilai’s excitent gradually vanished. He furrowed his brows. “Fellow, as a great elder of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint, I still have so authority over certain matters. I do have the authority to decide this trifle.”
“The value of these two high quality god artifacts are startling. Even so experts who have broken through to Immortal Exalt recently don’t possess anything that cos close, yet in the eyes of an Immortal Emperor great elder, it’s instead a trifle. Don’t tell the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint has already beco that wealthy?”
Xia Zhilai’s politeness vanished. His voice gradually sank. “From what you’re implying, don’t tell you want to take a bite out of us and rip us off viciously?”
“I asked you to get the ancestors of your Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint to discuss this with personally. Otherwise, you can forget about retrieving these two high quality god artifacts.” Jian Chen beca slightly impatient. With a wave of his hand, the Energy-devouring Furnace and the Heaven-locking Chains vanished, having been stowed away again.
Xia Zhilai’s expression changed rapidly. The two lost high quality god artifacts of the sect were right in front of him. He was basically tempted to snatch them back imdiately.
However, when he recalled the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master’s fates, he had qualms. He did not dare to make trouble here.
The person before him claid to be just a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor. Xia Zhilai obviously believed him, as he did not believe it was necessary to lie about that.
However, standing behind this person was definitely an extrely powerful Immortal Exalt!
After a series of deliberations, Xia Zhilai suppressed his fury and clasped his fist. “Fellow, since you want the ancestors of our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodint to discuss this with you personally, I’ll pass on the ssage. However, you still have to provide with an explanation when the ancestors ask about who you are.”
“I am Yang Yutian. I don’t have a particularly powerful background. I’m only a wanderer who travels the Immortals’ World. Jing Feng, send him off!”
