The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 554: 502

As Pei Xuanjing led someone in, the disciples who had been standing by in the Taoist Academy readied themselves, serving tea as soon as the two guests took their seats.

Normally, there was no need for anyone to wait upon Pei Xuanjing in his Taoist Academy. However, just like how the Shenxiao Sect found the need to heed his commands outside his great hall, many competed over the place of Pei Xuanjing’s rotation in the academy.

People all over the land now knew Pei Xuanjing’s experiences well, especially the background of his sole disciple, Pang Hong, the junior leader of Shenxiao Sect, many of whom were envious of and admired, wish they could take their places immediately.

After all, being by the side of Pei Xuanjing meant that, even without the chance to be his disciple, one could benefit significantly from his teachings and influence on one’s cultivation.

Were it not for Pei Xuanjing’s clear stipulation that only the academy’s disciples could come, even some instructors and powerful Spirit Realm practitioners would have wanted to serve him.

“Da Xue’s ancient country truly lives up to its name. This ancient country, that has been passed down for thousands of years, under such circumstances, managed to persuade you to return to your ancestral land. It seems that Xue Hanyi and the others’ efforts over the years were not in vain,” Pei Xuanjing said, looking at Xue Renfang in front of him.

Although Pei Xuanjing had stayed in Tiandu, without leaving, for years now, at his current status, he could get any news he wanted from the entire Great Ming World.

The identities of the two siblings, Xue Hanyi, powerful experts returning from the Sky Wasteland, were bound to attract many people’s attention.

Even if Pei Xuanjing let them go, Bai Xiaosheng would not ignore these two people. Though he would not interfere with their actions, he would keep a close eye on them.

As a result, Pei Xuanjing knew their actions over these years. This man before him now claimed to be Xue Renfang of Da Xue’s ancient country, so how could Pei Xuanjing possibly be unfamiliar with his identity?

His indifferent expression suddenly turned cold as he asked, “Did you come here today to accuse me of something?”

Perhaps the ancient Da Xue country had other plans and ideas initially, but with Pei Xuanjing forcing those two siblings to stay in Shenxiao Mountain over these years, it undoubtedly disrupted their previous plans. Therefore, they changed their plans, choosing to guide the powerful beings of Da Xue country back. This man before him should be one of these powerful individuals.

The man had not been in this world for long and suddenly sought him out. Pei Xuanjing did not know what the man intended, hence he directly asked. There was no beating around the bush; he got straight to the point.

With his current status and power, if he did not want to beat around the bush, no one else was worth his delicacy.

Upon hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words, Xue Renfang, the man from Da Xue’s ancient land, didn’t rush. He still calmly smiled and said, “Master, you are too serious. Although our Xue Country has been passed down for thousands of years, there haven’t been many powerful beings like you. Today, I came here to thank you for looking after those useless juniors in my family. There’s no need to talk about blaming you.”

Xue Renfang, as a powerful individual in the ancient Da Xue country, is well-known in the Sky Wasteland. However, his current mild attitude toward Pei Xuanjing from the ancestral land would undoubtedly surprise countless people if word got out.

But according to Xue Renfang, this attitude of his was nothing unusual; in fact, it seemed quite natural.

When he first arrived, after hearing about the experiences of the Xue Hanyi siblings, Xue Renfang was somewhat angry. After all, the Great Xue, which had been passed down for thousands of years, was a top power among first-rate powers, even though it had not been under the suppression of a supreme Spirit Realm Ninth Level master.

He was very unhappy about such a powerful individual from the ancestral land daring to detain people from the Great Xue, and he even planned to teach the other a lesson, reminding him of the importance of awe when facing a powerful individual.

However, after hearing about Pei Xuanjing’s experience from Xue Hanyi, his anger subsided a little, and the celestial event of Pei Xuanjing breaking through to the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm not long ago genuinely changed his mind.

An individual at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm had the qualification to ask for immortality, and wherever they were, they deserved respect from others. Pei Xuanjing, now at this level, had the chance to converse with Great Xue on equal footing now, regardless of the past.

What was more important was the celestial event triggered by Pei Xuanjing’s breakthrough, which was more shocking than any other breakthrough to the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm Xue Renfang had seen, enough to prove Pei Xuanjing’s power and potential.

Reaching the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm in 60 years, starting from being just a mortal, such terrifying progress was almost unheard of, unprecedented, which made Xue Renfang wonder if Pei Xuanjing was the son of Heavenly Mandate, nurtured by Heaven and Earth after thousands of years since the Tang Dynasty, or it’s hard to explain why he was so favored by Heaven and Earth.

As a result, Xue Renfang changed his original thoughts, wanting to meet this individual in person, which led to today’s visit.

Xue Renfang knew that with Pei Xuanjing’s stage, there was no need to beat around the bush, so he directly stated his intention, “Today, I came to ask for a favor. I hope you can permit it,” Xue Renfang said to Pei Xuanjing.

As expected, no one visits without a reason. The return to the Daming World at such a great cost must have some significant plans. The man’s visit to him was not simple at all.

Upon hearing his words, Pei Xuanjing, his face calm, did not respond immediately. Instead, he smiled and asked, “Why would you bother, sir? Given your strength in the world today, I believe no one could stop you from doing anything you wish, no?”

With Pei Xuanjing’s power and stage, his perception had reached an extremely acute level, even if he did not fight someone, he could estimate the other’s power and stage just with his own soul power.

Now, Pei Xuanjing found that the strength of Xue Renfang before him was quite formidable, ranging somewhere between the Seventh Level and the Sixth Level of the Spirit Realm.

No matter whether it was the Seventh Level or the Sixth Level of the Spirit Realm, the difference among them was not that significant. In the current Great Ming World, as long as the other person did not provoke Pei Xuanjing, Zhu Houji, the mysterious Mr. Wu, the owner of the Golden Book and Jade Scroll, and maybe add the old Celestial Master who holds the Zhengyi Seal, no one in this world could stop him.

Xue Renfang gave a faint smile, “The Great Divine Ming Dynasty now dominates the world. Although I have some strength, I can’t act recklessly. There are some things I still need you, Master, to take into consideration.”

If it were in the past, he might not care about rules, as rules are set by the powerful. As long as one has strong power, it’s always up to them.

However, things are different now, completely different from what he had expected.
