Chapter 1634 - Lan Sibai’s Invitation
Chapter 1634: Lan Sibai’s Invitation
“Didn’t you see the two pairs of white wings on his back? Only the Angel Race, the largest race in Heaven Field, has those angel wings.”
...
Hearing people’s exclamations and seeing the monk’s admiration, Lan Sibai smiled smugly.
As Lan Sibai looked at that Phoenix Heavenly Girl, he saw something strange in her eyes, and she was talking to the human man beside her.
Lan Sibai was immediately upset.
He was a four-wing angel from Heaven Field, coming from nobility. Wasn’t he much more attractive than a human man who was only a half-step saint king?
After a while, Mu Lingxi looked to Lan Sibai and smiled. “You’ve understood me, sir. I’m not some Phoenix Heavenly Girl. Thank you for answering my question just now.”
Lan Sibai was very attracted to Mu Lingxi’s smiling eyes. He immediately looked refined again and smiled. “Can you tell me your name, girl?”
Mu Lingxi looked to Zhang Ruochen and said, “Up to my husband.”
Everyone around them was dazed, and then they sighed as if she had married down.
Lan Sibai wouldn’t believe that a beautiful phoenix who was a saint king would ever be attracted to a human half-step saint king. He thought Mu Lingxi was using that human man as a shield.
“I’m the son of an emperor from Heaven Field. Can’t believe that even I’m not good enough for her. What a proud phoenix.”
Lan Sibai had always gotten what he wanted when he was growing up.
Especially with regard to the monks from the weak fields, if he liked the treasures they had, they would definitely give them to him. Even if he wanted someone’s wife, he could get her as well.
This was the suppression and exploitation of the monks enacted from strong fields onto those from the weaker ones.
Lan Sibai then looked to Zhang Ruochen and said, “Can I talk to you somewhere else?”
Zhang Ruochen said, “Of course.”
They walked to the end of the Cloud Boat.
Lan Sibai suddenly looked solemn and released the saint might of a second-step saint king. He said, “Which field do you come from?”
An ordinary half-step saint king would’ve been terrified by his saint might and follow every word he said.
However, Zhang Ruochen said calmly, “A large field ranked low. Perhaps you’ve never heard of it before. No need to mention it.”
Lan Sibai was kind of disappointed by how calm Zhang Ruochen was. He then asked, “Do you know Heaven Field?”
“Of course I do. The ruling field of the western universe.”
Lan Sibai said arrogantly, “I’m the third son of Gu Po, Six-Wing Emperor. You should’ve heard of Shang Ziyan, the leader of this generation of Merits Godly Palace, right? I’m his cousin.”
Zhang Ruochen finally looked surprised.
Seeing his facial expressions, Lan Sibai nodded contentedly and thought, Seems like I have to tell him my identity to make him realize who he’s dealing with. It’s time to alert him. He’s a half-step saint king after all. He should know what to do.
Lan Sibai put his hand on Zhang Ruochen’s shoulder and whispered, “Tell me, where does that beautiful Ice Phoenix come from? Are you her servant?”
Zhang Ruochen took a look at the hand on his shoulder and said, “She told you already. I’m her husband.”
What a disrespectful fool. I have to teach him a lesson now, Lan Sibai thought, and his hand on Zhang Ruochen’s shoulder became heavier and heavier, making dim cracking sounds.
Lan Sibai wanted to force Zhang Ruochen to kneel on the ground.
However, no matter how much strength he exerted, Zhang Ruochen just stood there, looking at him with a smile.
Meanwhile, Zhang Ruochen immediately moved his fingers, forming a time mark.
Whoosh!
He wielded the time mark against Lan Sibai without him noticing it.
Suddenly, Lan Sibai, who was trying to suppress Zhang Ruochen, felt feeble. His body shook as he retracted his arm, taking three steps back.
Lan Sibai felt weak on his legs as his head spun.
Was it because my cultivation surged too quickly, and there’re some unknown problems due to that?
Lan Sibai was scared. He didn’t have the capacity to trouble Zhang Ruochen anymore. He immediately sat down, mobilized his techniques, and adjusted himself.
Zhang Ruochen was able to take away one hundred years of life from his enemy using a time mark.
It would be strange if Lan Sibai didn’t feel weak after aging one hundred years suddenly.
Mu Lingxi asked, seeing Zhang Ruochen walk back, “What happened?”
Zhang Ruochen smiled. “You happened. I thought I could be low-key after changing my looks and suppressing my cultivation, yet there’ll always be trouble if I have a beautiful woman by my side.”
“Are you saying you regret becoming my partner?”
Mu Lingxi pretended to look aggrieved.
Zhang Ruochen knew that she was pretending to be sad, but he still smiled. “As long as that woman is you, I don’t mind any trouble.”
The Cloud Boat was extremely fast. After a short while, they could see that splendid Truth Godly Palace on the horizon.
After an hour, the Cloud Boat stopped at a port.
Lan Sibai, who was sitting on the floor, stood up and looked vigorous again. That weakness in his body was gone.
However, he looked very confused as he still couldn’t figure out where it came from.
There was a man wearing a Kylin Blue Cloud Cape standing at the port. Every monk who walked down from the Cloud Boat greeted that man, surprised.
Wearing a Kylin Blue Cloud Cape meant he was a first-class disciple from Truth Godly Palace.
Everyone was confused. Why would a noble first-class disciple show up at the port of the Cloud Boat?
Lu Qian, who was wearing the Kylin Blue Cloud Cape, looked very haughty, and he didn’t even look at the monks who were greeting him.
Seeing Lan Sibai walk down from the Cloud Boat, Lu Qian finally smiled and walked up. “Brother Lan Sibai, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.”
He was waiting for Lan Sibai.
Everyone around realized what happened, which sounded right.
Lan Sibai was a four-wing angel from Heaven Field. He came from a noble family, so it was normal that he was friends with a first-class disciple from Truth Godly Palace.
Which showed his status. Lan Sibai greeted Lu Qian as well, then they started to talk.
Lu Qian said, “Brother Lan Sibai, you came at the wrong time. Truth Godly Palace is full now, so it doesn’t have vacant refining secret chambers and caves. It’ll only open after seven days.”
“Seven days?” Lan Sibai frowned.
Lu Qian smiled and said, “Actually you don’t need to head back. You can live in my refining place for seven days.”
All the monks who just got off the Cloud Boat started to talk.
“Seven days until it reopens? Why weren’t we notified?”
“It took me three days to come from my dojo, even by Cloud Boat, and I paid a lot of saint stones for that.”
“Do we really have to wait outside Truth Godly Palace like that?”
...
Lan Sibai thought for a bit. He then smiled, looked to the crowd and found that beautiful Ice Phoenix and the half-step saint king.
He immediately walked up to them, followed by Lu Qian, who was confused.
Lan Sibai still looked polite. He said, “You should’ve heard that Truth Godly Palace won’t be open until seven days from now. Besides, even if it’s opened, only a small portion of the monks can get in as the first batch. Chances are you might need to wait for a month to get into Truth Godly Palace.”
“Then I’ll head to Truth Godly Palace in a month.”
Mu Ling dragged Zhang Ruochen and prepared to leave.
“Wait.”
Lan Sibai smiled and said, “No need for the trouble, and there’s no need to wait for a month either. My friend is a first-class disciple of Truth Godly Palace, and he’s the first disciple of a godly disciple. If you’re willing to, we can go live in my friend’s refining place first, and with my friend’s connection, we can definitely be in the first group to refine in Truth Godly Palace.”
Lu Qian looked at Mu Lingxi who was wearing a veil, and immediately understood what Lan Sibai was trying to do.
Lu Qian then walked up and smiled. “I’m Lu Qian, a first-class disciple from Truth Godly Palace. You can stay in my refining place for seven days if you want. Hear me out, please.
“You can do more than just crash at my refining place.
“The disciples in Truth Godly Palace and the talents from all the strong top-tier fields often gather and hold some parties and talk about techniques and exchange some refining resources we need. What’s more important is that you can befriend many great talents. I guarantee you it’ll be a hugely beneficial seven days for you.
“If you don’t like parties, you can use my token to go to Zhenyuan Saint Pavilion, one of the ten saint pavilions in Truth Godly Palace to read all the books. Many books collected by Truth Godly Palace can only be found in the godly palace. This is definitely the opportunity of a lifetime!”
Lan Sibai nodded with satisfaction and beamed. Lu Qian was indeed a good friend.
