50: In the forbidden area of ​​the Western Pool, I first met the Queen Mother of the West.

West Kunlun, West Pond Forbidden Ground!

Tongtian arrived with Li Yun. After a simple announcement, they were led inside by a female immortal.

Before long, the two arrived at a garden within the West Pond Forbidden Ground.

As far as the eye could see, the entire garden was vast, with flowers competing in beauty and rockeries and flowing water perfectly arranged. A massive lake lay within the garden, shimmering in shades of cyan, blue, and white. Faint Spiritual Qi drifted continuously from it; it was clearly a spiritual lake.

In the center of the lake, a woman stood peerless and independent upon the water's surface.

Her thick, jet-black hair cascaded down to her fair ankles. Her long, slender legs were straight, and her jade-like feet lightly touched the surface of the lake. As the breeze blew, her long red dress fluttered, revealing the undulating contours and scenery of her chest.

“Goddess, the guests have arrived.”

At that moment, the female immortal who had led the way called out toward the center of the lake.

In an instant, the Queen Mother of the West opened her closed eyes. She turned, lifted her foot, and stepped forward. Her jade feet crossed the lake surface, spiritual arrays manifesting beneath them, covering dozens of miles in a single stride.

Within just a few breaths, the Queen Mother of the West had traveled from the center of the lake to the lakeside pavilion. After glancing at Tongtian and Li Yun, she waved her hand and said, “You may leave.”

“Yes, Goddess!”

With a response, the female immortal did not dare to delay. She bowed and quickly departed.

Once the maidservant had left, the Queen Mother of the West looked toward Tongtian and said, “Fellow Daoist Tongtian, it has been a long time. I wonder what brings you here today?”

Only at this moment did Li Yun snap out of his daze as if waking from a dream.

Looking at the Queen Mother of the West's exquisite and beautiful Face, her ethereal temperament, and the faint, Innate Aura of a ruler, her beauty was not at all inferior to that of Houtu or Nuwa.

For a moment, Li Yun couldn't help but sigh in his heart, “As expected of the Queen Mother of the West!”

“Truly a remarkable woman who has captivated and obsessed countless male immortals of the Great Desolation.”

Li Yun clearly remembered some things about the Queen Mother of the West from later records.

For instance, King Pan, who was killed by the Ancestral Witches, was a pursuer of the Queen Mother of the West. In the end, to make her look at him with more respect, he developed the technique of toxic Gu that could threaten a Saint!

For example, Lei Ze, a top Great Divine Power Holder of the Great Desolation, transformed from the first Innate Divine Lightning. Even if he couldn't compare to the Saints like the Three Pure Ones, he was not much inferior to the likes of Dijun.

For example, the East King Duke, the future Head of the Male Immortals and someone Hongjun placed great hopes in, was also obsessed with the Queen Mother of the West to the extreme.

And then there was Haotian. Their meeting took place in the Zixiao Palace. When the Queen Mother of the West went to listen to the Dao, he, as Hongjun's Dao Child, fell in love with her at first sight.

In the future, even after becoming the Heavenly Emperor, he established the Jade Pond in the Heavenly Court. One must know that in this era, the Jade Pond was located in the West Pond Forbidden Ground, the residence of the Queen Mother of the West.

Even the title of the future Heavenly Queen was changed by him to Queen Mother. Although it lacked the word 'West', it showed that his admiration for the Queen Mother of the West had never faded.

Besides this, there were many other male immortals in the Great Desolation who admired the Queen Mother of the West. Even now, before she had completely risen, she already had countless pursuers.

Once Hongjun attained the Dao and promised her the status of the Head of the Female Immortals, she would truly become the leader of all female immortals in the Great Desolation. Even Nuwa, who had not yet attained the Dao and become a Saint, would have to rank behind her.

“Greetings, Fellow Daoist Queen Mother of the West.”

Tongtian, however, was extremely calm, paying no mind to the Queen Mother of the West's beauty. He cupped his hands in greeting and said, “I have come this time to discuss a matter with you, Fellow Daoist!”

“Beside me is Fellow Daoist Li Yun. He previously lived at Mount Buzhou, but you are aware of the situation in the Mount Buzhou region these years. Therefore, he plans to settle in West Kunlun for a period of time.”

“We have already chosen a place, a canyon area near Kunlun Mountain. But since West Kunlun is your territory, Fellow Daoist, I have come to inform you.”

“I hope that in the future, you can restrain the Cultivators under your command so they do not trouble Fellow Daoist Li Yun. After all, we are all friends, and it is best to avoid unnecessary conflicts.”

As soon as these words were spoken, a sharp light flashed in the Queen Mother of the West's beautiful eyes.

She subconsciously looked toward Li Yun, frowning slightly as she thought, “Taiyi True Immortal cultivation?”

“Just a mere Taiyi True Immortal, how could he make Tongtian, one of the Three Pure Ones, care so much?”

“And listening to Tongtian's words, it seems that besides him, Laozi and Yuanshi also recognize this person's existence. What exactly is going on?”

Though puzzled, the Queen Mother of the West remained calm on the surface. She nodded and said, “Very well!”

“Since Fellow Daoist Tongtian has spoken, I naturally will not refuse!”

“I will pass the word down later. As for the specific location where this Fellow Daoist Li Yun is staying, I will have the Cultivators in West Kunlun avoid that area.”

“Good!”

Having received the answer, Tongtian was extremely satisfied.

Immediately after, he no longer hesitated and directly informed the Queen Mother of the West of the location of the canyon area where Li Yun would reside.

After finishing all this, Tongtian did not plan to stay any longer. He urgently needed to return to secluded cultivation to strike for a higher Realm.

Thinking of this, Tongtian suddenly spoke, “Fellow Daoist Li Yun, the matter is settled. We should be going.”

“Alright!”

Nodding, Li Yun did not refuse.

Although the Queen Mother of the West was indeed stunning, to be honest, he didn't feel any heart-fluttering emotions.

Most importantly, in this era where the strong are respected, he did not want to have too much contact with other Cultivators. If his true situation were exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Wait a moment~”

However, the Queen Mother of the West suddenly spoke to stop them, “The two of you have come from afar. If I do not offer some hospitality, would it not be very rude?”

“It just so happens that I will be holding a banquet in a while. I wonder if you two are willing to attend together?”

As she spoke, the Queen Mother of the West's gaze was mostly focused on Tongtian.

Although Li Yun's situation was curious, his cultivation level was right there. The Queen Mother of the West truly didn't care much, or even pay much attention.

“This~”

Opening his mouth, Tongtian felt like refusing.

But considering that the Queen Mother of the West was his neighbor, and that he had come here to ask for a favor this time, it would indeed be somewhat unreasonable to leave without giving her Face.

The Queen Mother of the West took in this scene. She felt a bit displeased in her heart but did not dare to express it. After all, the aloofness of the Three Pure Ones was known to everyone in the Great Desolation.

She was also clear about her own situation and the specific intentions of those Great Divine Power Holders living in West Kunlun.

Thinking of this, the Queen Mother of the West suddenly said, “Fellow Daoist Tongtian, this banquet is not just about eating and drinking. The main reason is because of a certain matter.”

“According to the information I've received, the battle between the Witch Clan and the Demon God Palace in the Great Desolation has reached a fever pitch. The Demon God Palace has even sent someone to seek support!”

“Although we ourselves don't plan to get involved, the information brought by the people from the Demon God Palace is too important. A Supreme Treasure is about to emerge at Mount Buzhou, so it is difficult for us to refuse~”
