541: Resistance

“Hmph, I, this Immortal Venerable, will tell you honestly today, with your meager True Immortal Late Stage cultivation, in the Rebel Force I lead, you are simply… no, not simply, you are the absolute bottom of the barrel!” Luo Menglan said to Chen Xuan with a raised eyebrow, showing no mercy.

Hearing this, Chen Xuan looked indifferent, even a little smug: “Oh, so my cultivation is that low, huh? But that’s good too. If there are any big problems, the tall ones in front can handle them for me.”

“You…!” Luo Menglan glared at Chen Xuan, wanting to speak but holding back.

“Don’t ‘you’ me. There’s another important question: are there any female cultivators in our powerful team? Hehehe.”

Upon hearing this, how could Luo Menglan not understand Chen Xuan’s intention? She immediately bristled with anger and roared, “Chen Xuan, you scoundrel, you truly are a reckless brat! I solemnly warn you, you will not have the opportunity to meet any women in the team!”

“Then, does that mean, for the women in the team, I can only see the noble Immortal Venerable herself?”

“Hmph, that is natural! I, this Immortal Venerable, know very well what your true nature is. If I let you meet the female Rebels under my command, who knows what kind of trouble you would cause!”

“Hahahaha, good, good. Since Immortal Venerable herself has said so, then I, this humble one, will absolutely no longer think of them.” Chen Xuan laughed, but he muttered to himself: Not letting me see them, can they really hide them forever? One day, I will uncover the secrets of all you mysterious Rebels!

Hmm, double meaning.

“Then…”

“No, I mean, why do you have so many questions? Are you coming or not?” Luo Menglan urged him impatiently.

“Of course I’m coming. This is the last question. Senior, please be lenient,” Chen Xuan said with a smile.

“Alright, ask quickly!”

“It’s just… in our team, are there any… you know… people from other families?”

Upon hearing this question, Luo Menglan first froze, then her eyes widened, looking at Chen Xuan with an incredulous expression.

She truly couldn’t understand what kind of bizarre things were in this guy’s head. She originally thought she had some understanding of Chen Xuan’s eccentricities, but at this moment, she realized she had underestimated his strangeness.

“Rest assured, between you all… there will never be any chance of meeting!”

“Phew, that’s good, that’s good. If there really were, I would have to lose a lot of time for it. It’s best if there isn’t!”

“???”

“Senior, there’s no need to question. If I really encountered such people on your side, it’s possible I would be the one in danger!”

“Alright, I’m too lazy to hear another word from you now. Let’s go!” Luo Menglan said, then led Chen Xuan to a place filled with Immortal Qi.

In this Immortal Realm, Chen Xuan felt a strong Immortal Qi. The concentration of Spiritual Qi here was something he had never seen before, which made him feel very comfortable.

It was clear that Luo Menglan had put in a lot of effort for this.

“This is an important stronghold for our Rebel Force in the Immortal Realm, and also our secret base. The Spiritual Qi here is very rich, which can help you all quickly improve your strength,” Luo Menglan explained.

Chen Xuan nodded in understanding. He looked around and saw many towering mountains and dense forests, as well as many immortal birds and exotic beasts roaming within. Among the mountains, there stood magnificent immortal palaces, looking very spectacular.

“These beautiful immortal palaces are where our Rebel Force members live daily. I designed them, aren’t they pretty?” Luo Menglan said with pride, continuing to explain to Chen Xuan unhurriedly.

“Moreover, each of these immortal palaces has its own unique and important purpose. Some immortal palaces are specifically for everyone to Cultivate diligently and improve their own strength; others serve as places for members to exchange insights and experiences, promoting mutual growth and progress; and some are even places where everyone discusses strategies together, so as to better deal with various complex situations and challenges from powerful enemies.”

“Discussing strategies? How exactly are they discussed?”

Luo Menglan smiled slightly and responded with a hint of teasing in her tone: “Oh, actually, it’s just everyone getting together to figure out how to stir up some trouble outside. But, regarding this, you don’t need to participate in the discussion at all, because in this regard, you are an undisputed Genius!”

“Senior, I must solemnly state again, I have never actively sought any trouble since coming to the Upper Realm. Immortal Venerable, please don’t make baseless accusations and wrong good people!”

However, facing Chen Xuan’s agitated reaction, Luo Menglan merely waved her hand gently: “Alright, alright, stop trying to cover up your tracks. I’m not interested in such pretense. And, let’s not waste time babbling here. Let’s hurry and go. I’ll take you to meet the other members of our organization first.”

With that, she took the lead and walked towards the immortal palace. Seeing this, Chen Xuan could only shake his head helplessly and quickly followed Luo Menglan’s pace.

Along the way, Chen Xuan met many members of the Rebel Force. They came from different races, including humans, Yao Race, immortal race, and Demon Race.

Under Luo Menglan’s authorization, all these members were male cultivators without exception, and their cultivation was indeed very high, making Chen Xuan sigh at the Immortal Venerable’s power and foundation.

“Next, we are going to visit the number two figure of my Rebel Force, a commander-level, Genius among Geniuses. I plan to let him handle all your subsequent matters.”

“What about you? Why can’t I work with you?”

(What you said is best if…)
