Chapter 17: Not for Immortal Ascension...

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Li Mingqiong’s narration was very detailed. She even had detailed descriptions of Pei Qingshu.

However, he still wanted to hear what Pei Qingshu had to say.

The overall situation was similar, but from Pei Qingshu’s perspective, the details were different.

He was born in one of the top family clans in the world. This generation’s family Patriach was his father. He was the eldest son of the direct line of descent. He had studied martial arts since he was young, and had no intention of participating in battles.

As for exploring the ancient mystic realm, it had nothing to do with him, who had not even stepped into the Xiantian realm.

The reason why he went out to invite Li Mingcheng was purely due to bad luck.

Because he was the only male in his teens in the families participating in the exploration.

The other families’ members were either in their thirties or forties and were not suitable to invite a teenage Prince, or they were stronger than the Pei family. The Pei family had no choice but to agree to this task.

Just like that, Pei Qingshu became the scapegoat and was even deliberately targeted.

Not only had his identity, martial arts, and legs been destroyed, his father had also started to distance himself from him in order to protect the family.

Even the branch descendants who only knew how to bow and scrape before him in the past began to mock and ridicule him in secret. Some even spread rumors that he was the one who harmed the Pei family.

It was absolutely a stroke of grave misfortune!

Li Mingqiong was dumbfounded.

She had always thought that Pei Qingshu was one of the biggest accomplices. She did not expect the truth to be like this.

As for whether Pei Qingshu was lying or not, that was not within her consideration.

How would he dare you lie in front of Master Immortal?

That was simply not knowing how to write the word ‘death’!

Now, Li Mingqiong finally understood. Although Pei Qingshu had indeed invited her brother away, Pei Qingshu had not done anything wrong.

He’d suffered an undeserved catastrophe.

This made her feel a little embarrassed.

In her opinion, the reason why Pei Qingshu suffered such a miserable fate earlier was mostly because of her persistent pleading.

Cui Heng noticed the change in Li Mingqiong’s expression and could tell what the little girl was thinking. He smiled and shook his head but did not say anything.

From what Li Mingqiong and Pei Qingshu had described, the conflict between the aristocratic families under the Immortal sects and the Imperial Family was huge.

Even without Li Mingqiong adding fuel to the fire, it was only a matter of time before the Emperor of the Great Zhou made his move against the various clans while he had the absolute advantage.

At that time, Pei Qingshu would probably be the first to be targeted. Who asked him to take on the most shocking task?

However, this sort of analysis of the situation was only a simple distraction to Cui Heng. What he truly cared about was the so-called ‘Xiantian Realm.’

What was the Xiantian Realm?

A martial realm?

What was the difference between the Deity Realm and the Human Immortals that Li Mingqiong mentioned?

He was very curious.

But he couldn’t ask directly.

This made Cui Heng reminisce about Hong Fugui and Jiang Qiqi. Those two children were still easier to coax.

“I misunderstood earlier. I apologize to Young Master here.” Li Mingqiong actually took the initiative to apologize to Pei Qingshu and promised to compensate him in the future. She was not as hot-tempered as before.

“…” Pei Qingshu remained silent for a moment before nodding. “It’s good that Princess understands this.”

He still held some anger in his heart.

This was very normal.

“If there’s any enmity or conflict, deal with it yourself once you leave this place.” Cui Heng raised his eyes lightly and swept the two of them with his gaze before he said with a smile, “You’re guests who’d arrived from afar, come have a meal with me.”

This could be considered as setting the tone for the next ten days.

Pei Qingshu and Li Mingqiong were pleasantly surprised when they heard this. They quickly thanked him and sat down.

It could be seen that the only dish on the table was the one Cui Heng had cooked himself, and they didn’t know what to do.

At that moment, a golden beam lit up in front of the dining table. The three-meter-tall Yellow-scarved Strongman appeared out of thin air.

He bowed respectfully to Cui Heng, “Greetings, Master Immortal.”

Then, he stood up and waved his hand. A table of delicacies appeared in front of Pei Qingshu and Li Mingqiong.

Then, he transformed into a golden light and disappeared.

Such a situation made the two children dumbfounded. Their faces were filled with disbelief, and their minds were completely stunned.

They had never seen such a magical sight before.

What was that just now?!

That burly man had appeared out of thin air and then disappeared into thin air again. Even the powerful beings from the Immortal sects probably did not have such capabilities.

But from the looks of it, that burly man was only the Immortal Venerable’s servant?

Did this mean that even existences stronger than the Immortal sects were only fit to be a servant for the Immortal Venerable?

Following this thought, those great figures from the Immortal sects didn’t even have the qualifications to be Immortal Venerable’s servants?!

Pei Qingshu and Li Mingqiong were shocked by their own thoughts.

Their gazes towards Cui Heng became even more worshipful.

Immortal Venerable was indeed an ancient existence that had existed since the Legendary Era. They could actually meet such a great person, what kind of Immortal opportunity was this!

For a moment, they both had different thoughts.

After encountering such a rare Immortal opportunity, were they just going to talk and eat?

But since Cui Heng did not say anything, they did not dare to open their mouths rashly.

They could only sit upright and eat obediently. They did not even dare to drop a single grain of rice on the table.

And they did not dare to touch Cui Heng’s dish either.

After dinner.

Cui Heng suddenly opened his mouth and said with a smile, “I’ve lived in seclusion and haven’t entered the mortal world for a long time. I don’t know what the Grand Zhou is, nor do I know what an Immortal sect or aristocratic clan is. I still have to thank you two little kids for informing me about the outside world.”

Hearing Cui Heng’s words, Pei Qingshu and Li Mingqiong’s first reaction was that Immortal Venerable was indeed an extremely ancient expert.

Not only did he not know about Great Zhou, he did not even know about the Immortal sects!

Those sects that controlled the Immortal Martial Dao had already considered themselves as Immortal sects since ancient times.

Their second reaction was to stand up immediately and refuse his thanks.

How would they dare to let an Immortal Venerable thank them!

But what Cui Heng said next made them feel overjoyed.

They felt as if a huge pie had fallen from the sky and landed right in their mouths.

“Since you’ve explained the situation outside to me, you can consider it as chatting with me to relieve my boredom. By right, I should give you some thanks.”

Cui Heng smiled and said, “But I’m all alone, and I don’t have any treasures. Why don’t all of you tell me what gifts you want? You can’t refuse to accept it.”

Thump!

Li Mingqiong fell to her knees the moment his words rang out.

“The Immortal martial arts techniques are controlled by the Immortal sects. There’s clearly a path to Immortality ahead, but the people of the world are unable to pass through it. Immortal Venerable, please teach this junior the method to become an Immortal!” Princess Yong’an was extremely respectful as she bowed towards Cui Heng.

Pei Qingshu, who was standing at the side, was dumbfounded. He did not expect the other party to be so fast.

He hadn’t even thought of what to say.

But she had actually finished speaking!

The corners of Cui Heng’s mouth curled up imperceptibly when he heard this, but he didn’t agree right away and asked instead. “Why do you want to become an Immortal?”

“Only by becoming an Immortal can one live forever!” Li Mingqiong’s gaze was firm as she said, “This junior heard from my Royal Father that if a member of the Imperial Family dies, the corresponding soul lamp in the palace will be extinguished. Although my elder brother had disappeared without a trace, his soul lamp was not extinguished. He is still alive!

“I don’t know where he was sent to by the door of the Ancient Ruins, but I will wait for him! I want to obtain the Immortal technique not to become an Immortal, but to wait for his return in this mortal world!”

“…” This time, it was Cui Heng who fell silent.

Good lord!

This little girl probably had the bearings of a great Emperor.

However, he still didn’t forget his objective. After calming himself down, he said with a smile, “There is nothing wrong with seeking a path to Immortality. It is just that even yellow sands have transformed into clear waters, and oceans have turned into mulberry fields. I have been isolated from the mortal world for a long time, and the methods I cultivate are already different from the present. They are not necessarily suitable for you.”

“This junior will tell you what I know about my world’s martial arts right now!” Li Mingqiong said without thinking, as if she had already thought of a plan.

“In that case…” Cui Heng nodded lightly and said with a smile,” That’s fine too. ”
