438: Fame, Departure

Half a month later.

On the outskirts of the Two Realms Market.

Behind a crude wooden table.

A young Cultivator in grey robes, wearing a headscarf and holding a feather fan, sat upright.

A flag fluttered behind him.

Passing Cultivators looked at this crude stall.

Some could not understand.

Since he had obtained the Opportunity from the ancient tower, why not take the chance to join a major power?

To establish himself within a major power.

Wouldn't that be better than setting up a stall to tell fortunes here?

For the past half month.

Major powers had constantly sent people to invite him.

But Zhou Tailai had rejected them one by one.

Among them was the God Mountain Alliance, which had established its Sect in this Two Realms Mountain.

Within the God Mountain Alliance.

Although it was an Alliance formed by Cultivators who had all obtained the Opportunity from the ancient tower.

They had also successively absorbed many Loose Cultivators.

Gradually taking on the appearance of a Sect.

The place where the God Mountain Alliance established its Sect was not far from the Two Realms Market.

Therefore, their Cultivators were the first to arrive.

Hundreds of miles away from the Two Realms Market.

On top of a high mountain covered by a Formation.

Under a giant tree.

Four figures sat on four sides.

Before them was a square stone table.

At this moment.

A beam of spiritual light flew over.

It merged into the hand of a square-faced man in his thirties among the four.

The square-faced man extended his Divine Sense and scanned all the information in the Jade Slip.

"Big Brother, what does it say?"

To the left of the square-faced man was a female Cultivator in her thirties.

Seeing this spiritual light, she already knew what it was about.

So she asked.

To the right and opposite the square-faced man were two Cultivators, one male and one female.

Both looked towards the square-faced man.

They were the four who had joined forces to found the God Mountain Alliance.

The four had sworn brotherhood and established the God Mountain Alliance.

The square-faced man was the leader of the four and had the highest cultivation base.

After obtaining the Opportunity from the ancient tower.

He had already reached the Golden Core Stage.

He was honored as the Alliance Master of the God Mountain Alliance, with the title Immortal Master Lianfeng.

"He refused."

The square-faced man put down the Jade Slip in his hand and passed it to the female Cultivator beside him.

Although the three were somewhat surprised.

They were not astonished.

This was already within their expectations.

This was the news sent back by the Cultivator they had sent to invite Little Half Immortal to join the God Mountain Alliance.

"Sigh..."

The female Cultivator in her thirties to the left of the square-faced man sighed softly.

"Second Sister, no need to sigh; everyone has their own Destiny."

To the right of the square-faced man, a slightly younger man said with a smile, unconcerned.

"That may be true, but I fear that Little Half Immortal will be targeted."

"He not only refused us but also rejected other powers."

The female Cultivator nodded and said.

With some worry on her face.

Previously.

A young Cultivator had emerged from the ancient tower.

The God Mountain Alliance was a step too late, and he was snatched away by an Elder of the Zhang Family, a Golden Core Family in the Central Province of Nancang Domain, to be a son-in-law.

But later it was heard that the young Cultivator had not obtained the Legacy.

The Zhang Family members were furious, crippled the person's cultivation, and threw him out of the Zhang Family.

The methods were ruthless, leaving the person to fend for himself.

It can be seen.

Those major powers are not easy to deal with.

Only them, the God Mountain Alliance, was originally a loose Alliance formed by a twist of Destiny.

And having a common Opportunity, it was most suitable for them.

This Little Half Immortal, on the other hand, does not join any power.

He will definitely be targeted by those with ill intentions.

His fate might not be any better than that abandoned son-in-law of the Zhang Family.

"In that case, Second Sister."

"Have the brothers in the Alliance keep an eye on him. If Little Half Immortal leaves Two Realms Mountain, you should go and escort him for a while."

"After all, we share the same Destiny; it would be bad to see him lose his life here."

The square-faced Immortal Master Lianfeng pondered for a moment and said to the female Cultivator in her thirties on his left.

"Okay."

Fairy Qiuyi nodded and agreed.

On the outskirts of the Two Realms Market.

Two figures walked in quickly.

Heading towards that solitary wooden table.

The person in the lead was a Middle-aged Cultivator.

Followed by a beautiful young girl of eighteen or nineteen.

Zhou Tailai, who was closing his eyes to practice his Mind-Cultivation Technique, opened his eyes and looked at the newcomers.

It was precisely the Middle-aged Cultivator whose brow was stained with blood half a month ago.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for saving my daughter's life!"

The Middle-aged Cultivator took off a Storage Pouch hanging from his waist and came to the wooden table.

He bowed, and the Storage Pouch in his hand floated towards Zhou Tailai.

"Xiaowen, quickly greet our benefactor!"

As the Middle-aged Cultivator bowed to pay his respects, he instructed the beautiful young girl of eighteen or nineteen following beside him.

That day, he had received Zhou Tailai's divination.

He rushed non-stop towards a mountain in Two Realms Mountain where Loose Cultivators gathered.

By the time he arrived, he happened to encounter bandit Cultivators who had broken through the Formation and killed their way into the mountain.

Fortunately, he returned in time.

He risked his life to save his only daughter.

"Xiwen thanks our benefactor!"

Beside the Middle-aged Cultivator, the beautiful young girl looked at the grey-robed youth before her, who had a peculiar appearance but eyes that seemed to hold a galaxy.

She bowed.

"The two Fellow Daoists need not do this."

Zhou Tailai stood up and stepped aside.

He pushed the Storage Pouch back.

He had already received the divination fee.

So that settled the Karma.

It was not appropriate to accept such a great gift again.

"This..."

The Middle-aged Cultivator hesitated slightly.

Seeing Zhou Tailai's firm attitude.

He took the Storage Pouch back.

"I am He Xingdao, and this is my daughter, He Xiwen."

"For the next period, we father and daughter will stay in the market."

"If you, Fellow Daoist, have any need for help, feel free to come find me."

The Middle-aged Cultivator pondered for a moment.

And said solemnly.

"Okay."

Zhou Tailai smiled, nodded, and agreed, not refusing.

He Xingdao and his daughter did not stay here long and went towards the market.

Beside He Xingdao.

As the beautiful young girl left, she turned her head to look back.

She saw the youth, holding a feather fan and with eyes like stars, nodding slightly at her.

He Xiwen's beautiful little face reddened slightly, and she turned and followed beside the Middle-aged Cultivator, disappearing from Zhou Tailai's sight.

Zhou Tailai felt a joy in his heart.

The time to make a name for himself had finally arrived.

Sure enough.

A few days later.

In the market.

The name of Little Half Immortal's miraculous calculations had initially spread.

This was done intentionally by He Xingdao.

Since Zhou Tailai would not accept the thank-you gift.

Then he could only do what he could.

A few days later.

Another person came, said little, threw down a Storage Pouch, and left.

There were Cultivators in the market who recognized that person.

And knew that person's plight.

That was a frustrated person.

The Family had declined, leaving only him.

He had spent all his Family wealth just to come here and bump into an Opportunity.

In order to revitalize the Family.

But the ancient tower was not merciful.

Clearly, he had not obtained the Opportunity.

In his final moment of despair.

He had found Zhou Tailai and had a divination done.

Looking at it today.

He had already gained quite a bit.

The two people who arrived one after another made the name of Little Half Immortal Zhou Tailai completely spread.

For a time.

In the Two Realms Market.

Zhou Tailai became very popular.

There were not a few who came to ask for a divination every day.

However, because of the rule of three divinations per day.

Zhou Tailai, invisibly.

Had already offended quite a few Cultivators.

Zhou Tailai's reputation spread.

In the market.

Qin Xinming, who was watching that wooden table from afar and had changed his appearance, had a slight change in his expression.

"So you really did see through it; that makes it even more impossible to let you stay..."

Qin Xinming thought to himself, his figure hiding into the darkness.

Time passed.

Reputation spread.

Zhou Tailai did not leave immediately.

He still calculated three divinations every day.

Thus, after several months.

As Zhou Tailai's calculation methods rarely missed.

Zhou Tailai's reputation spread wider and wider.

It was already about to spread outside of Two Realms Mountain.

"It is time to leave..."

This day.

Zhou Tailai finished calculating the three divinations.

He sighed in his heart.

Too much fame also has its downsides.

If he stayed any longer.

I fear it would attract the attention of those powerful Cultivators.

Although, with his status, as long as he revealed it, no one would dare to do anything.

But it is trouble after all.

And, by then, I fear it would be hard to have freedom.

It is better to leave while I can.

He calculated for others every day, not just to earn Spirit Stones and reputation, but also as his path of cultivation.

Zhou Tailai's heart was set.

He stood up, put the flag back on his back, and packed up the wooden table.

He cupped his hands to the surrounding stall owners or Cultivators.

Quietly heading outside the market.

At the entrance of the Two Realms Market.

Zhou Tailai paused his steps.

He turned and looked behind him.

He saw a beautiful young girl chasing after him, and seeing him turn around, the beautiful young girl stopped her figure.

"Are you leaving?"

The beautiful young girl asked with slight hesitation.

"Fellow Daoist Xiwen, we shall meet again."

Zhou Tailai nodded gently, his eyes bright, just as they were when He Xiwen first saw him.

Watching Zhou Tailai's back as he left again.

The beautiful young girl's gently stepping foot paused, and she retreated.

He Xiwen sighed in her heart.

Her father had said that she and he were not people of the same world.

In the market.

An unremarkable ordinary Cultivator saw Zhou Tailai's figure leaving the market.

"You finally went out..."

Qin Xinming's heart stirred, and he followed quietly.
