Chen Wentian and Jasmine made steady progress as they pushed deeper into beast king territory. The pattern was the same, kill random creatures that dared to challenge them and wait for the void bee queen to subjugate the local void bee hives. A few days passed like this and the second part of the operation also kicked off.
Utilizing Chen Mo’s shadow body, Chen Wentian took human form to lead a small delegation to the Beast God Sanctum. The eagle lord Qu Shen had been receptive to an alliance and had invited them to Beast God City.
Chen Wentian had requested to meet in a neutral location but Qu Shen had instead insisted on Beast God City. It was an obvious display of power and prestige. After all, it was Ten Thousand Flower Valley seeking an alliance of their own volition. One side was a Spirit Lord Realm sect while the other was a Spirit King Realm sect so it naturally wouldn’t be an equal partnership.
The details of the alliance still had to be negotiated. The only thing agreed to so far was that the two sides would not attack each other. How much help each side would provide the other, and how much they could benefit each other through trade, these matters were still unclear.
“Are we ready?” Chen Wentian asked his entourage.
“Yes, master!” Zhou Ziyun and Li Yuechan answered crisply.
He had chosen these two for the mission. Zhou Ziyun was the smartest so he had to bring her. She had recently reached the 10th Level of the Spirit Initiate Realm so she could hold her own against mortal opponents.
Li Yuechan was also good because she was level-headed and had a broad view of many things. He didn’t bring anyone else because the mission was still risky. He didn’t want to send too many disciples into enemy territory. He could protect the two of them if things got bad but he wouldn’t be able to manage anymore.
“Good,” He smiled and nodded toward Li Yuechan, “Yuechan, you look really beautiful today.”
She blushed prettily and pulled a lock of black hair behind her ear. “Really?”“Haha, of course!”
The other reason he had chosen Li Yuechan was that he missed her. He felt that he hadn’t given her or her sisters enough attention lately. He wanted to make it up to them, starting with her.
“Master. Let’s stay focused.” Zhou Ziyun prodded him but she also smiled, “And Sister Li, you do look stunning today. The men of Beast God Sanctum will be drooling on themselves when they see you!”
Li Yuechan let out a soft laugh while hiding her face behind her sleeves. Her outfit was light-blue like the sky. It fit her well and emphasized her perfect physique. She was slender but not too skinny. And most importantly, she wasn’t lacking at all in all the right places.
The twin peaks of her chest were not unreasonably large like Wu Qianyu or even Long Yifei. However, they were clearly prominent from even a distance and gave her an irresistible charm. She also had a narrow waist and ample curves around her waist and bottom. Although she wore a conservative skirt, those sensual natural assets were indisputable.
“Hmph! If those random people dare to stare too much, I won’t let them go!” Chen Wentian said in mock anger.
What was the point of having beauties if he couldn’t show them off and make others jealous?
He would allow people to stare but not too long. Just like staring at the sun, they had to quickly avert their gaze or else they could suffer some burns.
“Alright, alright. You two, stop flirting. Our ride is here!” Zhou Ziyun pointed at the sky.
A flying boat appeared through the fog and descended toward them. The hull was plated with some kind of red metal. The prow was adorned with an eagle carved out of red jade. The billowing sails also displayed a large icon of a soaring eagle.
They were at the border town of Beast God City. Since they were official allies yet, they couldn’t access the teleportation array within the city which had special restrictions. He didn’t know how it worked but it was surely expensive. The array in Thousand Flower City had no restrictions and was only a base model. In theory, any random immortal could come and start causing trouble. It was only the reputation of the Immortal Association that prevented anyone from doing so.
The flying boat landed and revealed a small greeting party of five individuals aside from the regular guards. The person in the lead was tall and burly. He was bare-chested except for a wolf pelt that he draped over one shoulder. He emitted a wild and ferocious aura like a wolf on the hunt.
“Immortal Wolf Hunter Nan Lang greets Immortal Blue Dragon Chen Wentian, welcome to Beast God Sanctum!”
Chen Wentian cupped his fists and returned the martial greeting, “Well met, well met. Thank you Brother Nan for coming to personally accompany us.”
Although he was almost a full head shorter, he didn’t lose out at all in terms of spiritual might. He let out just enough of his blue dragon flames so that it could even push back Nan Lang’s wolf aura.
“Brother Chen’s reputation is well deserved. A true dragon amongst men.”
“Not at all, you praise me too much. I am simply someone trying to live my life peacefully and not seek trouble with others. But a few stray cats keep bothering me so I finally had to do something about .”
Nan Lang laughed loudly, “That’s a good one, I will have to tell the lord about that! Stray cats! Haha!”
He then gestured to his people who stepped up to give their greetings.
“Qu Jing greets Lord Chen!”
“Qu Rong greets Lord Chen!”
“Nan Yukai greets Lord Chen!”
“Nan Tuolang greets Lord Chen!”
The four juniors bowed respectfully.
Chen Wentian recognized two of them.
Qu Jing was tall and good-looking, with a heroic aura. He had reached fourth place during the Monster Fighting Competition so his talent was undeniable. Qu Rong was a short and somewhat unattractive lady. But she was equally talented, having scored sixth place in the same competition.
The other two weren’t weak chickens either. They were older but the two men were already in the lesser realms despite being not even forty. They were probably the best disciples that Nan Lang had.
Chen Wentian gestured to his disciples and they both walked up beside him, one on each side.
“Zhou Ziyun greets Lord Nan!”
“Li Yuechan greets Lord Nan!”
At a glance, the other side had more people and was more impressive. However, the truth was soon realized by both sides just how far apart they were.
Nan Lang’s eyes narrowed as he examined the two women in front of him. One was so young that he found it hard to believe. The other had merely achieved the eighty-first place at the Monster Fighting Competition and yet she had already reached the first lesser realm of Spiritual Growth. Both Qu Jing and Qu Rong had yet to achieve that feat!
What was the point of quantity without quality? Qu Jing and Qu Rong could be considered special talents but they weren’t unique. Nan Yukai and Nan Tuolang were geniuses of their generation but that was rather common.
Zhou Ziyun was twenty-two years old and she was already at the 10th Level of the Spirit Initiate Realm. Such cultivation was unheard of in this subcontinent. Perhaps only top geniuses of a main continent could have such fortune.
Li Yuechan was thirty-two, still in her early thirties. For her to reach the first lesser realm meant that her future was bright. She even had a good chance of challenging the immortal barrier.
Chen Wentian grinned. His disciples were absolutely special. At least in this subcontinent, they were without compare. They were his pride and joy.
