Inside a grand hall, Old Su sat in the main seat, looking at the people before him.
These individuals were all high-level figures of the Moonflower Holy Land, usually elusive and rarely seen.
The last time they had gathered like this was four million years ago, when a disciple of the Moonflower Immortal King ascended to immortality.
...
On the other side, Old Su's fourth disciple sought out Hu Yifei.
"Little Brother!"
He shouted towards the courtyard.
"Creak!"
The courtyard door opened, and a head popped out.
"Fourth Senior Brother, what brings you here? Last time you came to find me was…"
"Enough with the nonsense!" He directly interrupted Hu Yifei's attempt to start a long story.
If he let him continue, he would never finish before nightfall.
This kid was just too verbose.
"Do you know where Yao Xian is? I went to look for her just now, but she's not there," he asked.
"Fourth Senior Brother, why are you looking for my eldest sister?" Hu Yifei looked at him suspiciously, then his eyes widened in shock, and he said in horror, "You wouldn't be harboring designs on my eldest sister, would you? I'm telling you, eldest sister has a Dao companion, he's my brother-in-law, and my brother-in-law is super-duper strong.
We're brothers, so don't blame me for not warning you, don't you dare…"
"Shut your trap!"
Fourth Senior Brother's face darkened, and he grabbed a handful of dirt and stuffed it into Hu Yifei's mouth.
"Ugh, ugh, ugh…" Hu Yifei looked at him in terror.
He said, "Listen to what I have to say."
"Okay!" Hu Yifei nodded vigorously, signaling him to let go.
Fourth Senior Brother glared at him, but still released his hand.
Hu Yifei quickly spat out the mud, saying as he did, "Fourth Senior Brother, what are you doing? You…"
Suddenly realizing that Fourth Senior Brother had grabbed another handful of dirt, Hu Yifei quickly covered his mouth, afraid to speak.
Seeing this, Fourth Senior Brother snorted coldly, and then said, "Just now, all the peak lords came, and they specifically asked to see Yao Xian.
I felt that this matter was not simple, so I wanted to notify Yao Xian first and let her prepare.
But I couldn't find her.
Do you know where she is? If you do, hurry up and tell her."
"What?"
Hu Yifei exclaimed, not caring about the mud on his teeth, he asked, "What do they want with eldest sister?"
Fourth Senior Brother shook his head and said, "They're already in the Azure Sky Hall, and Master is currently dealing with them.
You have the best relationship with Yao Xian, do you know where she is now?
If you know, hurry up and notify her."
"Oh, oh!"
Hu Yifei nodded, but before he could take a few steps, he turned back.
"What are you doing?" Fourth Senior Brother looked at Hu Yifei in confusion.
"Fourth Senior Brother, I know you're anxious, but don't worry," Hu Yifei looked at Fourth Senior Brother with a grin.
Fourth Senior Brother's face darkened, and the mud in his hand twitched.
"If you don't give me a good reason, I'll treat you to the soil from Master's vegetable garden every day.
That soil is much richer in flavor than this, Master fertilizes it manually every day."
"Don't!"
Hu Yifei immediately lost his smile.
The old man's vegetable garden was fertilized with all-natural products, and he would rather die than have that soil touch him.
In order to prevent Fourth Senior Brother from treating him to soil every day, he said, "Fourth Senior Brother, if it were before today, I would definitely worry about eldest sister, but now, I'm more worried about the peak lords.
I hope they don't have any malicious intentions towards eldest sister, otherwise, even if our Sect Leader, the Moonflower Immortal King, were to be reborn, he wouldn't be able to save them."
"What do you mean?" Fourth Senior Brother frowned.
"Didn't I say? Eldest sister has a Dao companion, who is my brother-in-law, he is a super-duper strong existence.
The old man said that he is at least a powerhouse above the Immortal King level, so there is no need to worry about eldest sister's safety at all.
What we should be worried about now are those peak lords, I hope they won't think about dealing with eldest sister, otherwise no one will be able to help them.", Hu Yifei said.
"Are you bragging?" Fourth Senior Brother asked.
"Even if I like to brag, I wouldn't use my eldest sister's affairs to brag!" Hu Yifei said with a wry smile.
Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, Fourth Senior Brother nodded slightly and said, "If that's the case, then it's nothing."
With that, he was about to leave, but Hu Yifei stopped him.
"Fourth Senior Brother, aren't you shocked?" Hu Yifei asked.
"Why should I be shocked?" Fourth Senior Brother asked back.
"That's someone stronger than the Immortal King," Hu Yifei emphasized Gu Changsheng's strength again.
"So what?
Whether it's an Immortal King or a True Immortal, or even an Immortal Venerable, they are all stronger than me, and there are too many existences in the sect stronger than me.
If I were to be shocked every time, then what kind of immortality would I cultivate?
I wouldn't be able to finish being shocked," Fourth Senior Brother laughed.
Hu Yifei was stunned, and then said, "That seems to make sense, but something still feels wrong."
But by the time Hu Yifei came back to his senses, Fourth Senior Brother had already left.
Hu Yifei returned to his house and took out a communication jade slip.
Although he wasn't worried, he still had to report the matter to his eldest sister.
Maybe eldest sister would be happy, and if eldest sister was happy, then brother-in-law would also be happy.
If brother-in-law was happy, maybe he would give him some small trinket.
Someone above the Immortal King level, a small trinket to them would be a treasure to him.
Hu Yifei sent a divine thought into the communication jade slip.
On a high peak, Yao Xian leaned on Gu Changsheng's shoulder, watching the sunset together.
At this time, the communication jade slip on Yao Xian's body reacted.
"It's Hu Yifei," Yao Xian said.
Gu Changsheng nodded and said, "Although that kid is a bit talkative, he's still a very sensible person.
He's looking for you now, so something must be up."
Yao Xian waved her hand, and the communication jade slip projected Hu Yifei's face.
"Eldest sister, brother-in-law, did I disturb you?" Hu Yifei asked.
"What do you think?"
Gu Changsheng put his arm around Yao Xian, and Yao Xian also leaned against his solid chest very cooperatively.
"Uh…"
Hu Yifei's face changed slightly, but he quickly said, "It's like this, all the peak lords have come to the door, they said they were looking for you, eldest sister, so I'm notifying you.
If there's nothing else, I won't disturb you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Yifei's face disappeared.
"That kid…" Gu Changsheng shook his head.
"Look at how scared you made him," Yao Xian rolled her eyes at him.
"I didn't expect him to be so easily frightened, and besides, weren't you cooperating with me to scare him?" Gu Changsheng lowered his head and gently scratched Yao Xian's nose, chuckling.
"I call this 'the wife follows the husband'!" Yao Xian raised her head proudly.
"I haven't even agreed to marry you yet, how can you already be following my lead?" Gu Changsheng's eyes were playful, and he couldn't help but tease her.
Hearing this, Yao Xian pouted slightly and said, "Then fine, I won't marry you in the future."
"That won't do!" Gu Changsheng shook his head.
"See if you still dare to tease me," Yao Xian snorted.
"I won't, I won't," Gu Changsheng said with a wry smile.
"Let's go back, Senior Su has been very good to me, and I can't trouble him any further at this time," Yao Xian said seriously.
"Okay, I want to see what a bunch of True Immortal ants want to do with my wife," Gu Changsheng's tone was slightly cold.
If those True Immortals had any nefarious intentions towards Yao Xian, he wouldn't mind bullying the weak.
