755: True lineage of the Daoist temple, connections

“Fellow Daoist Tian Ce, please.”

Outside Ju Ling City, Lord of Jubao Pavilion had completely relaxed.

For the subsequent competition, he could only do his best and leave the rest to fate.

Zhou Tailai nodded and was about to enter Ju Ling City with Lord of Jubao Pavilion.

At this time, the Cultivators from Treasure Gathering Tower who had accompanied Lord of Jubao Pavilion, including Zhou Huiyang, were already arrayed in the air.

They were about to follow Lord of Jubao Pavilion and Zhou Tailai into the city.

Just then.

Boom~

A loud tremor echoed in everyone's ears.

Everyone paused and looked towards the source of the commotion.

A massive spirit boat, also flying the banner of Ju Ling Merchant Guild, leaped out of the void, disturbing the surrounding space.

In front of the leaping spirit boat stood a youthful figure.

This figure was clad in a noble, sky-blue robe, with one hand behind his back, a remarkably handsome face, and a slight smile.

“That’s... Yin Tiancheng...”

Lord of Jubao Pavilion whispered to Zhou Tailai beside him.

Zhou Tailai's heart stirred, and a strange look appeared in his eyes.

Yin Tiancheng... one of the most outstanding successors of the Yin Family, and also one of the fifteen Guild Master candidates this time.

His cultivation talent was excellent, but due to his young age, he was currently only at the Late Nascent Soul Stage and had not yet broken through to Soul Transformation.

But this was not the most special thing.

The most special thing about Yin Tiancheng was his exceptionally outstanding appearance and his elegant, free-spirited demeanor.

Even when he was only fifteen or sixteen, he already had a large number of admirers in Ju Ling City.

According to Lord of Jubao Pavilion.

Yin Tiancheng could already be compared to Elder Beihai and Elder Ruoxian.

Zhou Tailai had been skeptical.

After all, the two Elders were true handsome men.

Few could compare to them.

However, after just one glance, he realized that Lord of Jubao Pavilion's words were indeed true.

“Yin Tiancheng went to the branch in Yuyuan Domain and managed all affairs there. I heard his results were impressive.”

“He is a popular candidate for this competition.”

Lord of Jubao Pavilion didn't look much longer, about to retract his gaze. By seniority, Yin Tiancheng should call him 'Martial Uncle'.

However, since they were opponents, this slight connection was no longer important.

“Hmm?”

Lord of Jubao Pavilion's gaze paused and then shifted back.

Zhou Tailai was deep in thought, but at this moment, Lord of Jubao Pavilion's surprised exclamation interrupted his thoughts.

Zhou Tailai followed Lord of Jubao Pavilion's gaze.

He saw an extremely tall woman emerge from the spirit boat where Yin Tiancheng was.

As the two watched, the tall woman had already reached Yin Tiancheng's side and pulled him into her embrace.

“Hiss...”

It was a bit eye-watering.

Behind Zhou Tailai, Chao Muxi and the other two, who were secretly peeking from afar, quickly shifted their gaze elsewhere.

The scene there was truly hard to describe.

The woman was tall and muscular. Although her face was not ugly, the masculine aura about her was far stronger than that of the handsome Yin Tiancheng.

“That’s...”

“The Yin Family indeed managed to secure the Dao Court’s assistance...”

Lord of Jubao Pavilion's expression grew somewhat solemn.

The muscular woman who pulled Yin Tiancheng, who seemed like a delicate wife, into her embrace, was a direct descendant of the Hongdao Heavenly Venerable lineage of the Dongxuan Dao Court, a True Disciple of the Dongxuan Dao Court.

“Hua Qianshuang.”

Zhou Tailai said softly.

The Dongxuan Dao Court was the closest of the Ten Great Immortal Sects to the Chaotic Sea.

Naturally, he had some understanding of the Hongdao Heavenly Venerable lineage, which currently held great power in the Dongxuan Dao Court.

Rumor had it that Hua Qianshuang's status as a True Disciple of the Dao Court was merely due to her being a descendant of the Heavenly Venerable.

Her talent was not particularly exceptional.

Although it was rumored that she possessed a special Physique, this Physique was not considered particularly powerful; instead, it had very obvious drawbacks.

These drawbacks were the true reason for Hua Qianshuang's current appearance.

“They’re truly resorting to all means, even using such a despicable tactic as the honey trap.”

Lord of Jubao Pavilion was somewhat helpless.

Yin Tiancheng was indeed exceptionally talented.

He had nothing to say about him connecting with Hua Qianshuang.

Moreover, Hua Qianshuang was a descendant of the Heavenly Venerable.

The power she represented was even stronger than that of ordinary Holy Lands.

Zhou Tailai retracted his gaze and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Lord of Jubao Pavilion also stopped looking, and the two led the group of Cultivators towards the magnificent Ju Ling City.

In the distance, on that spirit boat.

Yin Tiancheng, nestled in Hua Qianshuang's embrace, had clearly also seen Lord of Jubao Pavilion's group.

“Hehe, Tian Cheng, don’t worry. This time I will personally support you, and you will surely get what you desire.”

The tall and robust Hua Qianshuang tightened her embrace around the delicate handsome man, chuckled softly, and her gaze returned from Lord of Jubao Pavilion's group to the person in her arms.

She said with a light laugh, showing a rather bold demeanor, but a strange feeling stirred in her heart.

Among that group, there seemed to be a very outstanding woman.

Just like Junior Sister Gui Yi back then.

Junior Sister Gui Yi... Hmph.

Hua Qianshuang snorted coldly; she hated these perfect women.

Just as she hated her own appearance.

When Gui Yi was still around, the young Disciples of the Hongdao Heavenly Venerable lineage all gathered around her.

This behavior greatly displeased her.

Fortunately, Gui Yi disappeared later.

There were too many beautiful female Cultivators in the cultivation world.

But female Cultivators as outstanding and stunning as Junior Sister Gui Yi were rare.

And today, she saw another one, even more captivating and beautiful than Junior Sister Gui Yi.

“Hehe...”

In Hua Qianshuang's embrace, Yin Tiancheng gave a bitter laugh.

If he could, he truly didn't want Hua Qianshuang to come along.

But the Family had already made its decision.

As a Disciple of the Yin Family, he enjoyed many resources from the Yin Family.

Now that it was time to contribute to the Family, he naturally couldn't evade it.

Alas... Yin Tiancheng sighed inwardly. Sometimes he would rather abandon his identity as a Yin Family Disciple and abandon this heaven-bestowed appearance.

He just wanted to be an ordinary person, marry the one he loved, and live out the rest of his life peacefully.

But he had no choice.

“What, have you taken a fancy to that little Fairy?”

“Alright, I’ll ask for her later and give her to you to warm your bed. You know, I dote on you the most; whatever you want, I will agree to it.”

The tall Hua Qianshuang looked down at Yin Tiancheng.

Her tone was as usual.

But to Yin Tiancheng's ears, it made his heart tremble.

He had witnessed Hua Qianshuang's methods.

These words were merely pleasant to hear; if he showed any hint of abnormality.

Perhaps the next day, the little Fairy Hua Qianshuang spoke of would never appear before his eyes again.

Or even cease to exist in this world.

“Little Fairy?”

“Where did Qianshuang see a little Fairy? I was just focused on my Martial Uncle and didn't notice any little Fairy.”

Yin Tiancheng looked slightly surprised, not understanding who Hua Qianshuang was referring to.

Although he had noticed the young woman following Martial Uncle Xunfeng, his mind wasn't on it, and he hadn't paid much attention, only catching a fleeting glimpse, so he hadn't seen her clearly.

Therefore, his words sounded extremely genuine, not at all false.

Hearing this, Hua Qianshuang subtly dispelled a hint of coldness in her eyes.

“She was brought by your Martial Uncle; she must not be anyone important.”

Hua Qianshuang casually brushed it off.

She cast the image of the stunning girl with the spiritual veil over her face out of her mind.

Although she was somewhat displeased, she didn't intend to do anything more.

“Let’s enter the city too.”

Hua Qianshuang changed the subject.

Then, holding Yin Tiancheng's hand, she openly flew towards the magnificent Ju Ling City.

As if proclaiming to the world.

Declaring her ownership.

“Alas...”

Yin Tiancheng's heart was filled with tears, unable to express his bitterness, and could only silently swallow his crushed teeth.

This world, where strength reigns supreme, was just so messed up.

Regardless of whether you are male or female, you have to compromise, or even sacrifice everything.
