Chapter 1144: Chapter 227: Urgent Crisis, Immortal Venerate Investigation

Xirong Manor.

Ning Zheng was also stunned.

He had clearly given up on the path of exploring the Time Ancient Tomb and was quietly observing the situation from an Observer Perspective.

Yet he was still found, what kind of unfortunate luck was this?

"No, it’s not just a random coincidence."

Suddenly, Ning Zheng’s expression became serious, "It’s the strong luck of the Immortal Venerates, making everything go smoothly and favorably for them... Their good fortune directly presented me as a gift before them."

He recalled his past self, wasn’t it the same way?

His own good fortune, during his weaker periods in the Five-Body Realm and Four Viscera Realm, had Bai Xingling, the Myriad Treasures Boy, repeatedly delivering treasures to him.

Ning Zheng’s strong luck turned Bai Xingling into a cash machine.

Now then?

Am I not just another version of Bai Xingling?

Becoming a cash machine in different forms, making sure to "by any means necessary" connect with the Immortal Venerates and deliver myself to their doorstep?

Indeed.

Ning Zheng wasn’t wrong.

When he reached the True Immortal level, it was the most dangerous moment of his life.

This mature leek was the perfect moment for the Immortal Venerates to harvest...

It wasn’t just Ning Zheng.

It’s likely that any True Immortal with foundation and opportunity would face this "True Immortal Tribulation."

Only by surviving the siege of the Immortal Venerates’ strong luck could one have the opportunity to breakthrough to True Immortal and be on the same level as them.

So, they didn’t really care that Xi Rong was taking business.

They have seen many cash machine incidents like Xi Rong’s; no matter how strong you are, or how stunning, under the Immortal Venerates’ strong luck, you will always be delivered to their doorstep.

This is what makes the Immortal Venerates terrifying.

"However, all is not lost."

Ning Zheng’s expression was incredibly calm; ever since the affair with the Bottle-Storage Immortal Venerate, he had lost his reverence for such terrifyingly high and mighty existences.

"Before, the Bottle-Storage Immortal Venerate, wasn’t it also strong luck that delivered me, Xi Rong, this opportunity before him?"

"And what was the result? He got a mouthful of teeth broken, couldn’t consume me, and consequently died himself."

He quickly thought of ways to deal with the crisis:

"This time, it’s nothing but the second delivery, the Immortal Venerates’ strong luck is not invincible."

My luck isn’t bad either, how could I fear them?

Though reflecting on myself now.

Perhaps it’s because I emptied 2.3 trillion of Jiumu Qing’s Half-Awakened Qi Fortune Value, leaving myself with only 1 trillion Qi Fortune Value...

The lack of luck, that’s why I was targeted again...

Actually, my own Qi Fortune Value has no problem with a single Immortal Venerate’s strong luck.

But now they’ve gathered together, both the Netherworld and the Immortal Realm, even enemies on both sides having tea together is ridiculous.

Their concentrated strong luck instinctively finds enemies that pose common threats to them...

Thus they found the nearest breakthrough to them: Su Yuniang.

"Next time I’ll leave more Qi Fortune behind."

Thinking this, Ning Zheng decisively cut off the Observer Camera from Su Yuniang’s side.

This camera shouldn’t look directly at the Immortal Venerates in the first place.

Having this thing on in front of these big shots, peeking at them... it’s no different from self-destruction.

"The server is down, but Su Yuniang’s memory might get read. Fortunately, everyone in this batch going in is Ember Su Yuniang, they’ve all had their memories erased, with no Xirong secrets, only then they dare to be sent out as mercenaries."

"Ember Su Yuniang has no issues on its own."

"The last thing I need to guard against is them suddenly teaming up at the banquet and divining Su Yuniang’s background..."

Ning Zheng wasn’t afraid of a myriad of outcomes but feared that one exception.

On the surface, it might be an invitation to dance, but in reality? Who knows what might happen.

It’s always necessary to be prepared.

No one would gamble their destiny on good luck, betting that they just won’t happen to talk about Xirong.

Ning Zheng called over Su Yuniang’s original body, Sun Moon Su Yuniang, Dao Yueniang:

"The situation is urgent, you three log into the Pseudo-human Three Flowers, each seizing a Xian in a small world..."

The three were stunned: The Xian can be possessed?

"Of course it can, just go and do it."

Back then, Ning Zheng used the Pseudo-human Three Flowers to possess a Xian in the Nine-State, controlling a Xian’s shell and pulling off stunts afterward.

"No problem!"

The three nodded immediately, logging into a new Pseudo-human Three Flowers avatar to find a Xian in some small world to possess, moving incredibly fast.

Every small world has its Xian, there’s no need to look specifically.

"While you control your Pseudo-human avatars to possess Xian, on the other hand, the original bodies, Sun Moon Su Yuniang, Dao Yueniang, you should enter the Time Ancient Tomb, park your ship at the city gate, and try to get close to that enormous Xian..."

Ning Zheng continued issuing commands.

He was dispersing the pressure.

The three possessed a Xian in a small world, two of their original bodies also went to the city gates of the Time Ancient Tomb to find the Xian’s original body...

This would certainly help relieve the pressure on him, as they would focus their divination on the Xian.

The Xian’s Qi Fortune Value, how terrifying is it?

A group of suppressed failures trying to divine the Xian?

Now, Ning Zheng understood why the Artist, Old Deng, collaborated with him in making a scene, unafraid of being divined!

He didn’t have the Qi Fortune Gambling Table.

But he was an awareness born from the Xian’s corpse, too entangled in cause and effect, the Immortal Venerates would have to break through the Xian’s protective wall to divine him...

But how could that be possible?

Thus, the Artist was fearless, gliding through, and no one caught him.

Even his original body, who knows in which corner it’s hiding, never showing itself, all that’s outside are his painted people.

At this moment.

The Artist wasn’t afraid of divination... Ning Zheng found a way and could mimic the approach.

Su Yuniang would also impersonate the Xian’s corpse...

Su Yuniang hid inside the Xian’s body to distract, at least absorbing seventy percent of the pressure for him.

Moreover.

His server was enveloped by black Tribulation Qi, coupled with the mysterious Qi Fortune Gambling Table, and his over 1 trillion Qi Fortune Value...

It should be stable.

After all, what he needed protection against was the Immortal Venerates from the Immortal Realm and the Netherworld on a whim suddenly teaming up for a divination at the banquet...

Not to mention, even if they teamed up for a divination, it would still be a low-probability event.

Even if a divination were made, it would lead to the Xian...

At that time, they would think it was the Artist’s doing, after all, the Artist caused the ancient double catastrophes...

Thus, the Artist would take the blame for him.

Additionally, Ning Zheng didn’t think the ancient Supreme Immortal Venerates had divination abilities; in ancient times they practiced a single law and didn’t cultivate Destiny.

The hands of ancient Immortal Venerates surely couldn’t reach past the city gates into the Present World, any divination or remote curse methods should be ineffective.

If they could use that trick... how could there be no actions from them in the Present World?

Thus.

Ning Zheng defended against divination, which was essentially just guarding against a low-probability event by the Immortal Realm and Netherworld Immortal Venerates’ divination methods.

On the other hand.

At a grand Immortal Venerate banquet, a group of Ember Su Yuniang were invited.

They, having accepted the invitation, began their performance, similar to that at Xirong Manor earlier.

The plot was as follows:

While dancing here, a "real" Bottle-Storage Immortal Venerate descends from the sky in anger, then wants to compete, taking off the coat to reveal a provocative dance dress to join in...

This scene, as a dance performance, was indeed interesting.

"Interesting, interesting."

"It truly is very interesting."

"This tiny force of the latter age is surprisingly bold."

This impromptu show elicited laughter from certain Immortal Realm Immortal Venerates and darkened the faces of some Netherworld Immortal Venerates like charcoal.

The sorrows and joys of humans are not the same.

"This Xi Rong, it really piqued my interest."

"Isn’t their Ember intriguing? It can be repeated? This is what’s most unique."

"Indeed, countless dancing ladies, each one being oneself... it somewhat reflects our Parallel World structure."

The Immortal Venerates laughed, this dancing lady was indeed very interesting.

Suddenly, an Immortal Venerate’s smile faded, and solemnly said.

"Should we investigate... this Xi Rong?"
