#798 - Xuanguang Demon Emperor

Recently, a major event has shaken the entire Immortal Realm.

The disciple of the Demon Saint is getting married!

Of course, the marriage of a Demon Saint's disciple wouldn't normally be a big deal. After all, while the disciples of the Five Saints have some status, they are largely irrelevant to most immortals, who can't possibly hope to climb that high. Not many people can actually establish a connection with a Demon Saint.

What truly shocked everyone was that this Demon Saint's disciple sent out invitations across the entire Immortal Realm, not just to the Lower and Middle Six Heavens, but even many in the Upper Three Heavens received invitations.

Most importantly, even the Five Saints accepted the invitation and announced to the world that they would personally attend to offer congratulations.

With all this, how could people not be astonished?

If it were the Demon Saint's own wedding, that would be understandable, but why would a disciple of the Demon Saint have such great influence?

Many people couldn't figure it out.

Lower Three Heavens, Qinyang City.

Not far from this city is the passage to the Middle Three Heavens, making it exceptionally prosperous, with a constant stream of immortals coming and going.

Inside a certain tavern.

The hall was bustling with activity, filled with loud discussions and exchanges.

At the main entrance, two figures wearing bamboo hats suddenly walked in, one male and one female, their faces obscured.

After scanning the crowded hall, the two found an empty seat in the corner and sat down. After ordering some wine and dishes, one of them removed their hat, revealing a handsome and refined face.

If there were any immortals from the Upper Three Heavens present, they would surely recognize him. This person was none other than Chu Yuanzheng, the chief disciple of the Immortal Saint.

"I don't quite understand. Although that Qin Qipeng is a disciple of the Demon Saint, he shouldn't warrant such importance from our master, right?"

The woman next to him also removed her hat and placed it on the table, revealing a delicate and beautiful face. It was Shen Yue'er, the Immortal Saint's second disciple.

The two had originally been investigating the whereabouts of the Dragon Pearl and had even found some clues when they suddenly received a message from the Immortal Saint, instructing them to come to the Lower Three Heavens to attend Qin Qipeng's wedding.

Naturally, the two dared not disobey the Immortal Saint's orders. Although somewhat unwilling, they immediately rushed over.

Chu Yuanzheng sneered, "What's so hard to understand? I heard that Qin Qipeng and Qin Qixian, along with Yu Xianxue, advanced and retreated together during the Tongtian Assembly. They are brothers, and even dared to offend the Ghost Saint for each other. The relationship between them is definitely not simple. Qin Qixian has… that guy standing behind him. Qin Qipeng must also have a close relationship with that person. Master isn't giving face to Qin Qipeng, nor is he giving face to the Demon Saint, but is trying to curry favor with that person!"

The pain the black-robed doppelganger had inflicted on him was already etched into his soul, impossible to erase. He didn't even dare to mention the name.

Shen Yue'er's pupils suddenly contracted. After Chu Yuanzheng said that, it did indeed seem very likely.

As the two were talking, the waiter had already brought the wine and dishes. Shen Yue'er flipped her hand and took out an immortal stone, placing it on the table. Unexpectedly, the waiter smiled and pushed it back: "Are you two also here to attend the wedding of our Evergreen Alliance's young master Qipeng? The Alliance Leader has already issued an order that all those who come to offer congratulations will have all food and drink free of charge on the Evergreen Alliance's territory!"

Evergreen Alliance?

Free of charge?

Upon hearing this, both Chu Yuanzheng and Shen Yue'er were stunned.

Qingyun Taoist?

It really is him!

Hearing this name again, Chu Yuanzheng couldn't help but shudder, a look of fear and pain flashing in his eyes.

Shen Yue'er slammed the table and angrily rebuked: "Nonsense! The Five Saints are the supreme beings of the Immortal Realm. How can you slander them at will? Are you courting death?!"

The waiter's face slowly darkened. He sized up the two of them and sneered: "Although this is the Lower Three Heavens, and your cultivation is very high, I, a small lower-level immortal, naturally dare not offend you. But you two should also see whose territory this is now. Don't think that just because you are Golden Immortals or Profound Immortals, even Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors must be obedient here. Now that my Evergreen Alliance's happy event is approaching, I advise you two not to court trouble!"

The current Lower Three Heavens has already been fully incorporated into the Evergreen Alliance's territory. Under the governance and development of the Evergreen Alliance for over a hundred years, the Lower Three Heavens has undergone tremendous changes. Basically, everyone can obtain ample cultivation resources.

They are naturally grateful to this mysterious Alliance Leader, regarding him as a god, and would not allow outsiders to slander him at will.

"You're courting death!"

Shen Yue'er trembled with anger.

She was, after all, an Immortal King. Where had she ever been looked down upon by a small lower-level immortal? Suddenly, she struck out a palm towards the waiter. With the surge of immortal power, the surrounding tables, chairs, floors, and even the ceiling instantly shattered.

Chu Yuanzheng's heart skipped a beat, and he secretly thought something was wrong. He reached out to try to stop her, but it was still too late. Shen Yue'er's immortal power palm had already struck towards the waiter.

The waiter was also startled, not expecting the other party to actually dare to attack.

However, just as he was about to be shattered by the spiritual power palm, an angry roar came from the collapsed second floor: "Which blind dog is disturbing my drinking?!"

Before the voice faded, a gale had already risen upstairs, mixed with a suffocating and fierce demonic aura, instantly shattering the immortal power palm and heavily hitting Shen Yue'er's chest at the same time.

"Pfft!"

Shen Yue'er spat out a mouthful of blood, a faint golden light appearing on her body surface. The whole person was blasted away.

"Demon Emperor!"

Chu Yuanzheng's heart shook. He instantly flashed out to catch Shen Yue'er, and at the same time, he looked back.

He saw many figures rushing out of the already collapsed tavern, each with an unkind expression. They were having a good meal, and now the tavern was smashed. Whose mood could be good?

Especially the tavern owner, whose face was full of anger. If he wasn't afraid of Chu Yuanzheng's and Shen Yue'er's cultivation, he would have already cursed and grabbed their necks, demanding that they pay for the damages.

From the ruins, two figures slowly floated out. One was a burly man wearing a gilded robe, with a wine jar in his hand and an unhappy expression. From the rolling demonic aura on his body, it could be seen that this person was the one who had just attacked.

Beside him was a woman, wearing a purple robe and exuding a cold and arrogant aura. It was Zong Ming, who had taken Qin Qipeng away back then.

"So it's you, kid!"

The golden-robed man coldly snorted: "Do you really think the whole world is your Immortal Dao's territory? Do you know that I hate being disturbed when I'm drinking the most! Such ill-mannered things, I don't know how Qiuhong Jun is managing his disciples. I don't mind helping him!"

Chu Yuanzheng immediately gasped when he saw the other party's face: "Xuangguang Demon Emperor!"

This person was a pivotal figure in the Upper Three Heavens. He naturally recognized him as the Kunpeng Clan's patriarch, Xuanguang Demon Emperor Zong Xian!
