Chapter 162: The Heavenly Waves Holy Maiden!

"However, there is one thing this Junior still needs to remind Senior of: if Senior chooses to act, your remaining lifespan will be quite limited. But I am different; as they say, 'joy puts spirit in one's step.' Moreover, the gap between our Realms is somewhat large, so there won't be any situation where my lifespan is depleted. I presume Senior is well aware of this fact."

"Therefore, Senior had best think clearly before acting, otherwise, it won't be a good thing for you. Furthermore, I believe everything I have done is without error, and I hope Senior can be a bit rational and refrain from doing anything unpleasant, lest things become awkward."

Although his next mission was to defeat a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, it didn't mean he was willing to make an enemy of a Cultivator of that level.

The current situation was truly not suitable for fighting; after thinking it over, he didn't want to make a move at this time either.

After hearing Zhao Changsheng's equally threatening words, the old man's expression became quite unsightly.

Even though it hadn't looked good to begin with, he knew that what Zhao Changsheng said was true and without falsehood; once he acted, his lifespan would be shortened by at least several decades.

Especially without the certainty of defeating Zhao Changsheng, his lifespan might be depleted even more.

If it were depleted too much, he wouldn't have much longer to live. Under these circumstances, he really didn't want to fight.

"Then this old man shall take his leave first. However, Fellow Daoist, do not be too arrogant."

After saying this, the old man gave a cold snort and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Zhao Changsheng was not at all surprised by this. After all, Cultivators of this level cherished their own lives the most; especially when they weren't certain of victory, they wouldn't dare to act, lest their lives be forfeit.

After the old man left, Zhao Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief, but then he saw a familiar figure. This familiar figure was none other than Master Le.

"What is it? Does Fairy have some objection to what just happened? Or do you think I did poorly? Or perhaps your clan has some objection?"

Facing Master Le, who had approached him of her own accord, Zhao Changsheng inquired with a faint smile on his face.

He didn't harbor much hostility.

"This little sister has come only in the hope of discussing a certain matter with Fellow Daoist. I hope Fellow Daoist can grant it?"

Facing the smiling Zhao Changsheng, Master Le was in a fairly good mood, so she stated her purpose for coming without any nonsense, speaking directly.

"Fairy, if you have something to say, just say it directly. No need to be hesitant; there are no outsiders here, just speak."

Zhao Changsheng nodded and followed up with a question.

"Actually, this little sister simply wants to know if Fellow Daoist currently has a Dao Companion?"

After saying this, a slight blush even appeared on Master Le's cheeks. Hearing these words, Zhao Changsheng came to a sudden realization and then sized up Master Le with great interest.

"I naturally have Dao Companions, and more than one. I have several Dao Companions by my side. If Fairy is interested, it's naturally no problem, I can guarantee that. I certainly won't fail Fairy's affection. If Fairy has no such intention and simply wants to introduce a few concubines to me, that is also perfectly fine, and I won't have any objections. After all, what man doesn't like a beauty?"

Zhao Changsheng's direct and open words caused the blush on Master Le's cheeks to deepen, but there was also a hint of shame and annoyance.

Because Master Le had completely not expected Zhao Changsheng to be such a direct person.

She had originally thought Zhao Changsheng would be a bit more tactful, but she didn't expect him to be so blunt.

"Fairy needn't be so shy; such things are far too common in the Cultivation World. Moreover, I don't consider the number of Dao Companions and concubines by my side to be many, and I don't mind having a few more. So, if Fairy is willing, then everyone is happy; if not, I won't force anything. However, I have one more thing I want to ask Fairy: between you and that Heavenly Waves Holy Maiden of the Tuwu Clan, who is more beautiful? As for Divine Abilities, I have heard that Fairy once lost to that Saintess, so you are slightly inferior. However, in order to recruit the Tuwu Clan in the future, I will certainly become Dao Companions with that Saintess."

"If Fairy becomes Dao Companions with me now, you will be able to stand a head above her in the future. I can still guarantee that, and I hope Fairy will think about it. Alright, if there's nothing else, Fairy may return. If you've made up your mind, you can come find me anytime; I won't have any objections and won't be going anywhere else. For the time being, I will stay in the Tiannan Cultivation World. However, I still need to make a trip to the Tuwu Clan next to see if I can recruit the entire tribe in one go. If I can recruit them, it would be a great thing for me."

"If they object, then I can only give them a thrashing and then recruit them. I also hope they can be a bit rational and not do anything foolish; that way, it will be a good thing for everyone. Does Fairy think what I've said makes sense?"

Though Zhao Changsheng's words made Master Le feel a bit bashful, she still nodded.

"If Fellow Daoist doesn't mind, this mistress can lead the way for you. After all, we are very familiar with their Holy Temple. In the past, we even fought our way to their Holy Temple multiple times, though in the end, we had to leave because of the Great Jin Cultivation World."

Actually, if it weren't for the help of those several great Sects from the Great Jin Cultivation World, their clan would not have been a match for us at all."

After hearing this, Zhao Changsheng didn't believe a single word, especially the part about defeating the Tuwu Clan.

He didn't believe a single word. Zhao Changsheng was very clear about the relationship between the two clans; if they truly had such an opportunity, they wouldn't let it pass.

As for the Great Jin Cultivation World, although their relationship with the Tuwu Clan was good, it was limited only to those few Sects; the relationship between the entire Great Jin Cultivation World and the Tuwu Clan wasn't that great either.

They probably wouldn't go all out to help, but they certainly wouldn't allow the prairie tribes to be occupied by a single race.

"What Fairy says is also quite normal. After all, if the prairie tribes were occupied by a single race, the strength of the entire tribe would be imaginable. After hundreds or thousands of years of development, to what extent would it flourish? For their entire Great Jin Cultivation World, it would definitely be a threat. Under these circumstances, they naturally cannot allow such a thing to happen."

Even though he didn't believe it, Zhao Changsheng still nodded in agreement.

"Then I will trouble Fairy with the matter of leading the way. With Fairy leading, the subsequent matters will be much easier."

"Fellow Daoist is too polite. As for the matter of the marriage alliance, this little sister will consider it carefully, so please rest assured."

In fact, if it weren't for the Three Great Divine Masters, Master Le would have been unwilling to come.

The Heavenly Waves Holy Palace was the largest Holy Land of the entire Tuwu Clan. It could be said that anyone able to Cultivate here had to be at least a Core Formation Stage Cultivator.

Now, because of Zhao Changsheng, basically any Cultivator in the Tuwu Clan who had reached the Late Core Formation Stage had to come to this Holy Temple. Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators were responsible for discussing strategy, while Core Formation Stage Cultivators were responsible for receiving orders.

In short, because of the threat of Zhao Changsheng, they had to make full preparations. Although they had thought about negotiating peace with Zhao Changsheng, when the information they scouted came back, it was somewhat hard to accept.

Because the Tiannan Immortal Cultivation Great Empire that Zhao Changsheng wanted to establish was an existence they simply could not accept.

After all, the Great Jin Cultivation World alone was enough of a headache for them, and the Tiannan Immortal Cultivation Great Empire Zhao Changsheng wanted to build was a Cultivation Empire.

Furthermore, it wasn't controlled by various great Sects, but rather by Zhao Changsheng, a single Cultivator.

In this way, the situation was different, and the threat to them was even greater.

Naturally, they immediately informed the several great Cultivation Sects of the Great Jin Cultivation World, which was why Zhao Changsheng had been intercepted by the Soul Transformation Cultivator from the Great Jin Cultivation World.

At the same time, it was also one of the important reasons why Zhao Changsheng had to go to the Tuwu Clan.

Although he certainly had to go to the Tuwu Clan, Zhao Changsheng hadn't been in that much of a hurry. However, after being blocked by the old man, he knew he had to make a trip.

And the sooner the better; there could be no delay.

With Master Le leading the way, it didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at the Heavenly Waves Holy Palace.

Looking at the magnificent Holy Temple, Zhao Changsheng asked Master Le to wait for a moment while he went in alone. Because Master Le's identity was somewhat special, if she went in directly, both sides would surely come to blows.

Although Zhao Changsheng now wanted to give them a harsh lesson, he also wanted to use a polite method to subdue them.

That way, he could reduce some losses and minimize the impact.

If that didn't work, then there would be no choice but to give them all a thrashing to make them completely convinced.

If even that failed, there would be only one way left: to exterminate the entire Tuwu Clan. Although this would be somewhat difficult for Zhao Changsheng, it wasn't truly that difficult. As long as he allied with Master Le's clan and had the help of the Tiannan Cultivation World, it could definitely be achieved.

As for the Great Jin Cultivation World, they would certainly step in to help the Tuwu Clan, but that wouldn't make Zhao Changsheng stop; it would only make him strike faster. The Immortal Cultivation Great Empire he was to build could not allow for any mistakes.

Moreover, he believed that once those few Sects in the Great Jin Cultivation World knew of his current Divine Abilities and strength, they would not easily act.

At the very least, they would have to invite several more Soul Transformation Cultivators.

Upon entering the Heavenly Waves Holy Palace, Zhao Changsheng wordlessly entered the cultivation palace where the Saintess resided.

He did so silently; neither the other Cultivators nor the powerful Restrictions within the Holy Temple noticed him, and he didn't trigger a single Restriction.

He arrived in the palace of the Saintess just like that, silently and without a trace.

When he reached the palace, the Saintess inside also opened her eyes. A look of surprise appeared on her face, and then she opened her mouth slightly, her voice crisp and pleasant, making one want to hear more.

"Since Fellow Daoist has come, please show yourself."

"As expected of the Heavenly Waves Holy Maiden of the Tuwu Clan, your perception is indeed extraordinary. Correct, I have indeed come, and I've come this time to look for trouble."

Hearing the Saintess's words, Zhao Changsheng revealed himself directly. Of course, this was because he had intentionally allowed her to perceive his presence.

"Are you Fellow Daoist Zhao from the Tiannan Cultivation World?"

Upon seeing Zhao Changsheng's appearance, the Heavenly Waves Holy Maiden's face showed surprise, and she spoke Zhao Changsheng's identity.

"I truly didn't expect that I would be so famous. Correct, I am indeed Zhao Changsheng of the Tiannan Cultivation World. Since Saintess knows me, you should be able to guess why I've come to you today. It's mainly for one matter, and I hope Saintess can consider it and not do anything unwise; that wouldn't be a good thing for anyone, as I'm sure Saintess understands."

Zhao Changsheng's words could be said to be blunt and direct, even carrying a hint of overbearing flavor, as if saying 'if you don't agree, you can try me'.

In fact, it was true; if this Saintess didn't agree, then she couldn't blame him for being unkind. In any case, Zhao Changsheng would definitely not be polite.

"I did not expect the number one person of the Tiannan Cultivation World, Fellow Daoist Zhao, to be such an unreasonable person. It truly disappoints this mistress."

""

"Whether you're disappointed or not has nothing to do with me. You're not unaware of my purpose for coming here. Since you know, then think it over carefully. If you want to call for help, feel free; anyway, it's not a troublesome matter for me, at most I'll just deal with you all in one go. And I do indeed have that intention, I just didn't want to waste too much effort, which is why I didn't strike directly and instead gave you time to consider. I hope you don't push your luck; if you really do, then don't blame me for being unkind."

Zhao Changsheng's arrogant and unreasonable words made the Saintess's face turn somewhat livid.

Because she truly hadn't expected someone like Zhao Changsheng, the number one person of the Tiannan Cultivation World, to be so rude.

"Alright, alright, stop pulling a long face, it's meaningless. As long as you obediently listen to me and do as I say, your clan will not only receive great benefits but also be able to preserve your Origin Qi and avoid losing too much. In the future, you might even be able to break away from my Tiannan Empire and perhaps even control the entire prairie. Such things are achievable. Moreover, I've come this time with sincerity. If I hadn't brought enough sincerity, I wouldn't have been so offensive. Fairy, why don't you take a look at this item?"
