60: Chapter 60 The Arrival of Immortal Lord Feng Lei and Others

Cao Yang was currently sitting at a round table in the courtyard. Behind him, the two maids, Hong Yi and Hong Er, were massaging his shoulders.

Cao Yang thought to himself, "System, check my status panel."

Conquests Completed: 6

Check-in Count: 2517

Cao Yang looked at the panel and felt much more comfortable, though it was a pity the check-in counts weren't very durable.

Now he could be certain that his Eldest Senior Sister, Mu Wanying, had indeed become a Fortune Daughter—likely a Fortune Daughter of the Immortal Realm.

His Revered Master Ouyang Liuli's favorability was almost at 99. Love really does grow over time!

At that moment, Cao Yang inadvertently discovered that several Immortal Lords and Golden Immortal experts had actually appeared in Black City, ten thousand miles away.

These experts only stayed in Black City for a few breaths before heading toward Giant Stone City.

Over the past few days, thanks to Xu Buli's intentional spreading of information, everyone in the vicinity knew that the Human Race's Immortal King Xuan Yang was in Giant Stone City, and Cao Yang had not stopped him.

A distance of ten thousand miles could be crossed in an instant for experts at the Immortal Lord level or above.

However, Immortal Lord Feng Lei and the others did not dare to arrive at Giant Stone City in an instant, as that might be perceived as a provocation to an Immortal King. Instead, they flew toward Giant Stone City at a moderate pace.

"Hu Li, are you sure Immortal King Xuan Yang is in Giant Stone City?" Immortal Lord Feng Lei asked once more.

"My Lord Immortal Lord, I am very certain Immortal King Xuan Yang is in Giant Stone City. This was spread by the City Lord of Giant Stone City, Xu Buli, who even claimed that his daughter has become Immortal King Xuan Yang's Dao Companion."

"To confirm the truth, I sent someone into Giant Stone City to check. Xu Buli's daughter has indeed broken through from the Mahayana Realm to the Earth Immortal Realm. This must be the handiwork of an Immortal King giant." Hu Li, the City Lord of Black City, hurried from the back of the group to the front, explaining with a low bow.

"Brother Lei, there's no mistake. On the day the Great Immortal King broke through, I was right beneath the tribulation clouds. I can roughly confirm that this Human Race Immortal King is in this region," explained a middle-aged man beside him, who was at the Middle Stage of the Immortal Lord Realm.

Indeed, the one who had fled in a hurry from beneath the tribulation clouds that day was this grey-robed middle-aged man—Immortal Lord Qin Feng.

"Mhm, that's good then," Immortal Lord Feng Lei nodded.

Immortal Lord Feng Lei's group soon arrived in the sky above the gates of Giant Stone City.

"Great Immortal King Xuan Yang, we are Human Race Immortal Lords from the Southwest Immortal Desert, and we have come to seek recruitment under your command," Immortal Lord Feng Lei transmitted his voice into Giant Stone City.

After the transmission, the group waited quietly in place.

Two days later, many more Golden Immortals arrived in the sky above the city gate, some of whom were not even from the Human Race.

During these two days, Cao Yang did not send anyone to bring them into the city, nor did he even respond.

Immortal Lord Feng Lei and the others also waited quietly at the city gate; they believed that Immortal King Xuan Yang already knew of their arrival.

At noon on the third day, six Immortal Lords and over a hundred Golden Immortals had gathered at the city gate.

Cao Yang called Xu Buli to him and instructed with a serious expression, "Xu Buli, leave the city immediately and bring those people outside to me!"

Xu Buli did not dare to delay in the slightest and quickly replied respectfully, "Yes, My Lord Immortal King!" With that, he turned and sped toward the gates of Giant Stone City. Along the way, Xu Buli couldn't help but feel somewhat apprehensive, but when he thought about the fact that Immortal King Xuan Yang was standing behind him—and was his own daughter's Dao Companion—his heart immediately settled a great deal.

Before long, Immortal Lord Feng Lei and the others, who had been waiting at the city gate, saw a True Immortal rushing toward them from afar. Seeing this, Hu Li, who was nearby, hurried to explain to Immortal Lord Feng Lei, "My Lord Immortal Lord, this person is the City Lord of Giant Stone City, Xu Buli."

Xu Buli stopped a hundred miles away from Immortal Lord Feng Lei and the others, cupped his hands, and shouted loudly, "Lords, I am Xu Buli, the City Lord of Giant Stone City. I have been ordered by Immortal King Xuan Yang to invite you all into the city to pay your respects to him."

Hearing this, Immortal Lord Feng Lei also responded politely, "We have troubled City Lord Xu. Please lead the way."

Xu Buli quickly said modestly, "You are too kind, Lords. Please follow me." As he spoke, he turned and led the crowd into the city.

...

At this time, in the main hall of the City Lord's Manor, Cao Yang sat in the primary seat. His women had all come as well, each sitting in the seats to Cao Yang's lower left, while many seats were left empty on the right; clearly, many seats had been added to the hall.

Xu Buli led the group all the way to the entrance of the main courtyard before turning to explain, "Lords, seating in the hall is limited. Only ten representatives may enter." After saying this, he stepped aside, signaling that they could enter the hall.

Soon, the six Immortal Lords and four Peak Golden Immortals followed Xu Buli into the courtyard.

As soon as the group entered the doorway of the hall, they were stunned by the beauty of the women sitting on the left, but no one dared to take a second look. They knew that every woman here likely had a powerful background and was not someone they could easily provoke.

The ten Immortals knelt in unison before Cao Yang and said, "We pay our respects to Immortal King Xuan Yang."

"Mhm, there is no need for such formality. Please, take a seat." Cao Yang looked at the people before him and nodded inwardly.

He knew that these people represented a portion of the experts in the Southwest Immortal Desert. Perhaps they could serve as his enforcers and eyes in the Immortal Realm; after all, the Immortal Realm was too vast for him to handle everything personally.

The women also curiously sized up these experts. Cao Yang had told them earlier that experts at the Golden Immortal level and above would be visiting today. They were full of anticipation, wanting to see just how strong they were, though none of them could discern the other party's cultivation Realm.

"We thank Immortal King Xuan Yang." The ten rose and sat in the seats on the right.

"I wonder what business you all have with me?" Cao Yang asked with a smile.

"My Lord Immortal King, it is like this: we are all members of the Human Race from the Southwest Immortal Desert. Upon learning that you are of the Human Race, we came together to seek refuge under your command," Immortal Lord Feng Lei replied.

"Mhm, continue," Cao Yang nodded.
