"What? Its a Spirit Lord armor!" Chen Wentian said defensively as both Zhou Ziyun and Wu Qianyu looked at him judgntally. Ungrateful won! Don't they know how many people would sell their organs for an immortal treasure?
Lin Qingcheng eventually ca back, having put on her original yellow robe. Chen Wentian could tell she still wore the Golden Serpent Robe underneath so he felt happy as there would be more opportunities in the future to see her in that armor. After handing out the treasures, it was ti for the actual business of the day.
"Qianyu, Qingcheng, you both are doing pretty well with cultivation. I have a task for you. The valley and the surrounding mountains are still wild and unknown. I need you both to head out and explore the entire territory of the sect. Qingcheng, have Qianyu to help you if you find anything too dangerous. Qianyu, with your experience from herb farming, you can search for good areas for cultivating herbs within surrounding area. Co back with detailed maps of the territory. Both of you, be careful, and have fun!"
"Yes Master!" They bowed and headed out of the hall.
He turned to the odd one out. "Ziyun, you'll have to accompany to attend so annoying matters." He said as he swept her up in his arms and flew into the air.

The organization of immortals had sent him a ssage that there would be an ascending ceremony for a brand new immortal today and that it was customary for local immortals to attend. The guy was nad He Xinghan. He was the son of so big shot immortal within the local provinces so he was very wealthy and even hosted the party himself. Chen Wentian didn't want to go but it would be bad form and it would piss off his neighbors.
Chen Wentian and Zhou Ziyun arrived the private floating island a bit late and the party was already in full swing. Zhou Ziyun was amazed as she had never seen so many immortals before. Chen Wentian laughed as he took her hand and led her to the food, eager to score so free expensive dishes. They grabbed four plates of blue marble lobster and found a private table, ignoring everybody else.
Chen Wentian enjoyed the impromptu date as he cut up the lobsters and fed it to Zhou Ziyun. She enjoyed the attention from her master as she ate and took in the sights. There were many immortals floating around, so wore flashy armor and carried impressive looking weapons. Others wore more normal but still expensive and high class attire. They all had unique auras around them which seed to clash together as they chatted with each other. Chen Wentian would point out specific immortals that he t before and whisper so secret about them to her that would make her giggle. When it was her turn to feed him she purposefully leaned over from ti to ti so he could see down her dress at her notable cleavage. He didn't want to be labeled a pervert in front of his peers or he would have already kissed her.
Their intimate mont was rudely interrupted by the loud voice of an announcer that spread throughout the party. "Fellow immortals and distinguished guests, I would like to introduce the brand new mber of the immortal realm! One of the youngest immortals of the last thousand years, at the age of forty eight! Please welco to the stage, Immortal Lion of Fortune He Xinghan!"
There was so applause as a handso man walked up to the stage. He had perfectly combed black hair and his face only showed a hint of age. Chen Wentian scoffed, what a pretentious title, did he choose it himself or maybe his father did. Though, the guy's talent was indeed pretty impressive. Forty eight could be counted as among the super elite. If he could continue his trajectory in the immortal realms, he had a good chance of becoming a supre power.
He Xinghan started a long winded speed about his struggles in finding the path to immortality and about his future dreams. Chen Wentian ignored the blabber but paid attention to his body language and noticed that he didn't seed to be too pleased about the lukewarm attention he was getting from the crowd. Chen Wentian felt a hint of warning as he could sense where this annoying situation was headed.
Like the sun rising in the east, it inevitably happened. When He Xinghan started talking about establishing his sect, Chen Wentian heard his na being brought up. "... and we also have here today Immortal Blue Dragon Chen Wentian! Who I heard recently ascended and created a sect as well! Sir Chen Wentian?" He Xinghan said, getting off the stage and heading to where he was sitting.
The crowded parted as He Xinghan quickly reached him. Chen Wentian stood up as did Zhou Ziyun.
"Ah, Sir Chen Wentian, please accept a bow from this junior!" He Xinghan said as he gave an elegant bow. The crowd surrounded them out of curiosity.
Chen Wentian also returned the bow courteously. "Well t, Sir He Xinghan. Your talent is trendous and I'm sure your Dao is profound. I have no doubt your sect will be filled with talents." Chen Wentian recited so nonsense as he hoped the idiot would leave.
Of course He Xinghan didn't leave. Instead he said, "I am extrely humbled by the kind words. Though, I heard you're is an even more amazing cultivator who is only twenty five years old. I was in closed door cultivation for ten years, finally achieving immorality at such an age, but it seems I was beaten."
"As cultivators we should refine our inner selves and not be distracted by the outside world." Chen Wentian's acidic reply seed to cut through his nice guy act.
He Xinghan's smile disappeared, "I heard you've made a new sect, called Ten Thousand Flower Valley? I hope you've found many talented disciples already. Oh, who is young lady, she can't be your disciple... is she your escort?"
Looks like the gloves had co off. "Of course she's my disciple. I thought your father would have taught you better manners." Chen Wentian spat back.
"Disciple? Her talent is so trashy! Is she even deserving of receiving an immortal's guidance? Hahaha! Even though you yourself is quite talented, if you want to compete with , you'd better find so better disciples before the sect competition. Its only a year from now, I'll be waiting to see how your 'disciples' perform." He laughed.
"You better find so good disciples too, or else you'll suffer an even worse humiliation at my hands." Chen Wentian shot back.
"I won't waste words here, this is my auspicious day. We shall see at the sect competition!" He Xinghan glared at him before he turned around and left.
The rest scattered after that and the party resud. Chen Wentian wasn't well known except for his age so the other immortals didn't pay him any more attention. He looked at Zhou Ziyun who had an angry look in her eyes. "Relax, Ziyun, its not a big deal."
"Master, I'm sorry, If Qingcheng or Qianyu were here, that asshole wouldn't have anything to say to you."
Chen Wentian poked her cheek, "Hey, you're my disciple too! I'll make you a better immortal than He Xinghan could ever dream of."
Feeling a bit vindictive, he robbed an entire table of blue marble lobsters before flying away with his lovely disciple in his arms.
