Chapter 1609 - 591: You’re My Superior?

From the enormous shadow of the White Jade City, two figures emerged, scaring the Eternal Life Sect Leader to the point where his scalp tingled,

Tiancan Monk scratched his face, his eyes already darting around. He said to the Eternal Life Sect Leader, "Sect Leader, in a moment, please pass a message to Master Zhou for me."

"What message?"

"Forgive this monk’s cowardice, but I must take my leave first."

"..." The Eternal Life Sect Leader glared at Tiancan Monk. This monk in tattered robes had already thought out his escape plan.

The Green Robed Buddha also glared at Tiancan Monk and asked the Eternal Life Sect Leader, "Sect Leader, have you ever been to the White Jade City? Do you know who those two are?"

"Me? When have I ever been to the White Jade City? I merely glanced at that mysterious city from outside Jade Capital."

The Eternal Life Sect Leader first corrected the Green Robed Buddha’s statement and then speculated,

"As for who these two people are? I don’t know, but I guess their skills must surpass that of the Female Apostle."

The Female Apostle the Eternal Life Sect Leader mentioned was Zhu Fuyao.

Just a while ago, Zhu Fuyao had displayed a move called ’Giant Axe Style,’ with power nearly at the Heavenly God level, leaving a deep impression on everyone.

"What, even stronger than that Female Apostle?" The Green Robed Buddha immediately frowned and said, "I originally thought to risk it for the Master, but it seems that’s not possible either."

"The opponent is too powerful. In their eyes, we’re quite insignificant."

The Eternal Life Sect Leader carefully analyzed and said, "To put it this way, the Female Apostle descended for the master’s elixir,

but she hasn’t made a move yet. Jade Capital must be anxious,

so they sent two more individuals now that the master’s elixir is about to be completed. They definitely sent even stronger experts to snatch the elixir,

the bottom line of White Jade City is terrifying. Even a single Female Apostle is an insurmountable peak for us, and now with two even stronger apostles, I’m afraid... I’m afraid the master might be in for some hard times."

"What should we do then?"

The Green Robed Buddha felt stifled,

"Let’s wait and see. If it really comes down to a fight, we’ll combine our efforts to think of something..."

The Eternal Life Sect Leader sighed,

while Yun Ziliang, Li Changxun, and others had already made up their minds— even if they were no match, they would unsheath their swords to fight...

They saw new arrivals from Jade Capital, and naturally Zhou Xuan saw them as well,

but he looked at the new arrivals from Jade Capital with a relaxed expression — by his assessment, the newcomers were certainly not hostile.

Zhu Fuyao then said to Zhou Xuan, "Brother Zhou, my father has descended."

"That man is your father?" Zhou Xuan pointed at the valiant newcomer from Jade Capital and asked.

Zhu Fuyao nodded and said, "Jade Capital has four great Divine Palaces, also known as the Four Great Families. Our Zhu Family guards the Divine Central Palace,

my father is the Palace Master of the Divine Central Palace, Zhu Zhenggang."

"Who is that person beside your father?"

Zhou Xuan asked about the arrival with the mark between the eyebrows.

Zhu Fuyao replied, "Oh, that is the First Pill Master of the Yujing Pill Dao — Tianchi,

Tianchi Pill Master is considered the most promising successor of Dan Master Ding, extremely talented."

"Hiss..."

Zhou Xuan’s eyes began to take on a bit of amusement. So the two who descended this time are the true top figures of Jade Capital.

"Why have they descended?" Zhou Xuan asked again.

"That... I can’t seem to fathom either."

Zhu Fuyao said, "Logically, they shouldn’t have descended."

"Why not?" Zhou Xuan asked.

"The people of the White Jade City descend through the array within Xuandu Palace, which requires the Flower God’s energy to activate,

if individuals with high cultivation are transmitted, the Flower God’s energy consumption is greater,

the Tianchi Pill Master, and my father, are well-established figures in Jade Capital with extraordinarily high cultivation, sending them down exhausts the Flower God greatly."

While Zhu Fuyao was explaining to Zhou Xuan, he listened and started to become a bit dazed,

not because he was distracted, but because the Witch God’s words echoed in his mind.

"Young Master, these two who have descended are extremely difficult to deal with. My Tao is not at its peak currently, and facing those two simultaneously, there’s not much chance for victory, so..."

"So what?" Zhou Xuan asked.

"The batch of elixirs you have should be given up when necessary. When I return to my peak, I will ensure they repay your elixirs a hundredfold."

The Witch God’s words almost amused Zhou Xuan,

Zhou Xuan chuckled and said, "Witch God, I didn’t expect you to be someone who knows how to adapt."

"Forced by circumstances, no choice but to do so."

The Witch God sighed.

At that moment, Zhou Xuan finally understood why, despite being one of the Four Great Venerables of Jing Country, the Witch God was powerless to govern so many injustices he witnessed in the human world.

It’s simply because his strength isn’t at its peak, and even within Jing Country, there are still a few individuals who surpass the Witch God.

Zhou Xuan thought to himself — Jade Capital has four great divine palaces, with Zhu Zhenggang as one of the palace masters, meaning there are three others as formidable as him,

and the Tianchi Pill Master is one of the Eleven Pill Masters, with ten others equally skilled,

in addition to Mr. Ding of Jade Capital, the Sequencers, and the ’Saint’ mentioned by Zhu Fuyao.

"No wonder White Jade City was able to unify the Heavenly Dome, it indeed has deep reserves."

The more he thought about it, the more he realized the value of his elixir skills — a skill highly valued by White Jade City,

having such a skill, his status in Jing Country could only continue to rise substantially.

With these thoughts, Zhou Xuan further assured the Witch God, "Witch God, don’t worry, the two that descended are certainly not here to snatch the elixirs."

Zhu Fuyao just mentioned, that transmitting people from Jade Capital requires the ’Flower God’s’ energy, which increases with the cultivation level of the individuals sent.
