297: Chapter 297 Arrival at the Worry-Free Tower, the Hall of Immortals, and the Wings of the Free and Unfettered God

When Jiang Yunxian said this, a cold smile curled at the corner of her mouth, as if she were quite pleased to see the miserable state of Wuyou Tower.

With a thought, she controlled the ancient tower ship, turning it into a streak of light that crushed through the Void Realm as it rushed toward Wuyou Tower.

...

White Jade Capital, Jianxiao City, Nangong Family.

Inside a blessed grotto-heaven, the head of the Nangong Family—Nangong Fusu—was kneeling respectfully before a young man.

It was hard to imagine that the leader of a major power, a powerhouse at the Heavenly Palace Realm Seventh Heaven, would actually be so respectful to a youth!

If outsiders saw this, wouldn't their jaws drop in shock?!

Especially Nangong Fusu's next words, which were even more eye-opening!

"Old Ancestor, that Wuyou Tower does not wish to form a marriage alliance with our Nangong Family. May I ask what you think should be done?"

Nangong Fusu was extremely respectful, as if the youth before him were the true person in power of the Nangong Family.

"How many times must I say it? There's no need to call me Old Ancestor; I am currently just our Family's World Walker."

The youth's gaze was sharp. Although there was a lingering trace of youthfulness on his face, his tone was world-weary and sophisticated.

"Wuyou Tower won't ally with our Nangong Family? It seems Ji Qingyan wants to keep that secret for a lifetime!"

"However, her hiding and tucking it away will only end up harming her in the end."

"Some things are not meant for her to guard for a lifetime!"

The youth's tone was grim, his gaze as ruthless as if it were dipped in poison.

"Old... Lord walker, then should we..."

Nangong Fusu's Aura was aggressive, but he hesitated to finish his sentence.

"No rush. We'll go to Wuyou Tower first to see the situation and find out how much longer it will take for Ji Qingyan to die!"

The youth sneered.

"Yes!"

Nangong Fusu immediately prepared a carriage and brought along a group of powerful clan Elders to head toward Wuyou Tower with the youth.

This time, their Nangong Family was determined to take Wuyou Tower!!

...

Wuyou Tower was the only power among the seventeen major powers of the White Jade Capital that dared to call itself "Wuyou."

It was built in a paradise-like setting, filled with the sights and sounds of women everywhere, as if truly isolated from the world and self-sufficient.

The Tower Lord of Wuyou Tower was the number one beauty in the White Jade Capital, whose appearance could even cause one to die of excitement!

Furthermore, she was the Tower Lord of Wuyou Tower and possessed formidable cultivation.

Therefore, the number of men in the White Jade Capital who adored and admired her was countless.

Because of this, even though Wuyou Tower was isolated and had almost no contact with the outside world, no one dared to underestimate it.

"Rumble!"

An ancient tower ship slowly approached, its Aura so strong it inspired awe and fear.

"Jiang Yunxian, Sect Leader of the Kunlun Sect, has come specifically to visit Wuyou Tower!"

Jiang Yunxian stood at the bow of the ship, letting her sleeves flutter incessantly, looking majestic and imposing.

"What?! The Sect Leader of the Kunlun Sect has arrived in person?! Quick! Go and invite Sect Master Jiang!"

"Great! Sect Master Jiang's visit to our Wuyou Tower this time must be to help us!"

"Hmph! With Sect Master Jiang and the Kunlun Sect here, I bet that Nangong Family wouldn't dare to be our enemy even if they had the heart of a lion and the gall of a leopard!"

"Don't speak too soon. Have you forgotten that Sect Master Jiang has a grudge against our Tower Lord? It's not certain that Sect Master Jiang came here today to help us; perhaps she's here to kick us while we're down."

A young girl spoke up, her face full of wariness.

"Where is your Tower Lord?"

Seeing that these girls were slow to respond, Jiang Yunxian finally became somewhat impatient and spoke.

Just as she finished speaking, a woman dressed in a light pink gown, with beautiful long hair and an exquisite, beautiful face, flew out.

"Xiyue, Sect Master Jiang!"

The woman cupped her fists slightly toward Su Xiyue and Jiang Yunxian.

Su Xiyue nodded slightly and smiled, "Rebellious Disciple, this is the friend I told you about—Zhou Yumo!"

Zhou Yumo looked at Lin Ran and smiled, "This must be the famous and renowned Banished Sword Immortal. I have long looked forward to meeting you!"

"I don't deserve such praise."

Lin Ran smiled.

"Where is your Tower Lord?"

Jiang Yunxian asked again impatiently.

Zhou Yumo did not dare to be disrespectful and quickly cupped her fists, saying:

"The Tower Lord was very happy to learn that Sect Master Jiang was coming, so she has prepared a banquet in the Hall of Immortals. Please follow me, Sect Master Jiang and all the honored guests."

Hearing the words "Hall of Immortals," Jiang Yunxian couldn't help but sneer, "Heh! Putting on airs!"

"I'd like to see what kind of banquet this Ji Qingyan has set up for me!"

After saying that, she stepped into Wuyou Tower, and no one dared to stop her.

Seeing this, Su Xiyue and Zhou Yumo looked at each other and both sighed helplessly.

If Ningxiang Tower was a place where not a single woman could be seen, only men.

Then Wuyou Tower was exactly the opposite of Ningxiang Tower.

Wuyou Tower was a Holy Land for women; it only recruited women and never accepted men.

Any woman who was homeless or had no one to rely on could enter Wuyou Tower.

This was the true meaning of "Wuyou."

And the Hall of Immortals was the most luxurious hall in Wuyou Tower, used to entertain honored guests.

Entering the Hall of Immortals, Jiang Yunxian looked around and, upon not seeing Ji Qingyan for a moment, frowned in dissatisfaction and said in a grim tone:

"Where is your Tower Lord? Could it be... you are playing with me?!"

"This... we naturally wouldn't dare to deceive Sect Master Jiang! Please wait a moment, Sect Master Jiang; our Tower Lord will arrive shortly!"

An Elder of Wuyou Tower said, bowing and scraping.

"Alright, Senior Martial Uncle, don't make things difficult for them. Let's sit first; there's no harm in waiting a little."

Lin Ran smiled helplessly and pulled Jiang Yunxian to take a seat.

To his surprise, Jiang Yunxian turned her head and glared at Lin Ran huffily, saying:

"Little Linzi, whose World Walker are you, anyway?!"

"You haven't even seen Ji Qingyan yet, and you're already starting to speak for her?"

"If Ji Qingyan were standing in front of you right now and took off her mask, wouldn't you lose your mind completely!?"

Lin Ran: ...

Holy crap!

He actually felt that what Jiang Yunxian said made some sense, and he was unable to refute it!

["Ding! Detected that the Host has successfully completed a Heavenly Mandate Mission!"]

["Rewards: 26,000 destiny points, top-tier divine technique—Freedom Heavenly God Wings!"]

The Freedom Heavenly God Wings was a top-tier divine technique, which could be considered an advanced version of the Cloud-Chasing Moon-Pursuing Divine Wings.

Its speed was also countless times faster than the Cloud-Chasing Moon-Pursuing Divine Wings!

"Jiang Yunxian, your temper is still the same as before, so irritable."

"I'm only a little bit late; is there any need to be so impatient?"

Just as the System prompt finished, another gentle and refined voice sounded in Lin Ran's ears.

The corners of Jiang Yunxian's mouth curled up slightly as she sneered, "Impatient? Naturally, I am impatient!"

"If I don't see you, how can I kick you while you're down?!"
