287: A meeting after ten thousand years

"I'm sorry."

Wangcai's voice was very soft as he slowly flew toward the figure in the air.

"Is this your new home? Won't you invite me down for a visit?"

Gui Xiang did not respond to his words but instead looked down at the people below with a smile.

Wangcai nodded, then brought her back into the Heavenly Profound Sect with him.

This Heavenly Immortal Powerhouse was unsure of the strength of the person before her, but her ability to scare off five Golden Immortals with a single sentence was enough to prove her worth.

The entire Heavenly Profound Sect treated her as an honored guest, and all the Elder-level figures gathered together to thank her.

"The immortal spirit qi in your small Sect is actually so dense; it's even better than the imperial palace of our Immortal Kingdom."

Gui Xiang sighed in admiration as she walked through the Heavenly Profound Sect.

Even with her perspective as an Immortal King, she couldn't help but marvel at this Sect.

Wangcai also felt an immense sense of pride; it was his correct choice back then that allowed him to successfully remain at the Heavenly Profound Sect and become a winner in dog life.

If he had been even a little bit arrogant back then, he likely would have been turned into dog meat hotpot. Fortunately, he chickened out quickly.

Wangcai followed right beside Gui Xiang, not even having a place to sit, looking very aggrieved.

Zhang Hai and the others had now become Elders of the Sect. While they nominally still held the status of the Sect Master's Personal Disciple, their strength and authority entitled them to the position of Elder.

"Thank you for your righteous assistance just now. I would like to offer you a toast."

The various Powerhouses respectfully raised their wine glasses and drank them in one gulp. Gui Xiang also raised her glass to acknowledge them with a smile, looking very kind.

After she took a small sip of the wine in her glass, her expression suddenly changed in surprise.

Ghost One and the others knew how to brew this high-concentration white liquor, so they brewed it the moment they returned to the Sect.

Moreover, they were basically producing it day and night with very little rest. Except for the last time they were called out by their Revered Master, they spent all their other time busy producing white liquor.

Now, the Sect had set up a dedicated workshop for producing liquor, with a large number of Disciples assisting the three of them, increasing the daily production of liquor by many times.

Even the legendary Immortal Court nectar of the Immortal Realm was arguably inferior to this high-concentration white liquor.

The taste of the liquor was not only incredibly fragrant, but it also had an extreme, dry spiciness. As it went down the throat, one would feel a fiery sensation throughout their body, as if it could dispel all chill.

If one didn't use spiritual power to neutralize the alcohol in their body, just a few cups would be enough to reach a state of tipsiness and drowsiness.

Seeing that Gui Xiang was very satisfied with the wine, Wangcai immediately ordered people to bring over a few more jars for her to take back and enjoy.

He was now a dog of the Heavenly Profound Sect and could not leave the Sect at will.

Moreover, even if he returned to the kingdom, it was impossible for him to seize the position of the ruler from his son; he was no longer the ruler now.

Furthermore, after witnessing the miraculous Creation techniques of his Revered Master, Wangcai had no desire to leave the Sect at all. For him, this place was like a second home.

With his strength as an Immortal King in his previous life, it would have been impossible for him to casually fish one Powerhouse after another out of the long river of history.

Yet Li Haotian could effortlessly summon a large number of deceased Powerhouses to serve him.

Moreover, the people he fished out were basically those who possessed great Luck but had their paths cut short midway.

Even the weakest among them had their own Opportunity and their own path.

The Powerhouses had extremely high talent. People like Lin Tianxuan and Baili Hui were completely the tragedy of an era; despite their immense strength, they ultimately failed to achieve Ascension.

Sometimes, Wangcai would even think about and wonder if he was also someone fished out of the long river of history by his Revered Master.

When he was killed back then, there was only one thought in his mind: even if he had to become a slave, even if he had to be a pig, a horse, or a dog again, he wanted to live out this life earnestly.

As long as there was even the slightest possibility of returning to the Immortal Realm, he would not give up. He wanted to come back to see his kingdom and his wife properly.

Various terrifying thoughts often flashed through Wangcai's mind; it was truly possible that he was one of the people fished out of the long river of history by his Revered Master.

Because he discovered that neither his Revered Master nor his Revered Master's fellow apprentices were simple individuals.

He had never seen this group of young people encounter any Bottlenecks when they Cultivate.

Ascending from the Lower Realm at the age of over 100 was something he had never heard of before.

The age of all those who achieved Ascension was basically over 1,500 years old. Even those with the best talent who only came into contact with immortal spirit qi at that age would undergo a fundamental change in their physical bodies, making it basically impossible to surpass the Golden Immortal Realm.

Unless they obtained tremendous resources, it would be impossible to continue moving forward.

These young people have exceptional talent and lacked no resources; it was inevitable that they would reach the position of Immortal Emperor in the future. Staying in the Heavenly Profound Sect was far more comfortable than returning to his own Immortal Kingdom to be an Immortal King.

"Thank you for your gift. My assistance this time was also because of Bruce—oh, you all call him Wangcai now."

Gui Xiang looked very calm and elegant. She really hadn't expected that she would actually be able to see her husband one day.

He had been dead for so many years. She had always harbored fantasies, knowing it was an unrealistic dream, but she hadn't expected that this dream would actually come true today.

Before, whenever she faced people who looked like Wangcai, she would need to go up and ask them to see if they were truly like the image in her memory, but unfortunately, it was all in vain.

She had long since given up, but today, seeing hope again, although she hadn't asked any questions, she was certain that this person was indeed her husband after just one look.

Gui Xiang's expression was very calm, but her heart was already extremely excited. The wait of tens of thousands of years had finally yielded a result.

She knew her husband would not be willing to just perish like that and would definitely find a way to achieve Rebirth. Today, she had finally waited for it.

Everyone cast their gaze upon Wangcai, who scratched his hair in embarrassment.

Among them were Powerhouses who belonged to the same era as him, and they naturally had heard of this person's name.

They all wore expressions of surprise, never imagining that this guy would actually be a former Immortal King.

One had to know that Wangcai was just a very ordinary dog in the Sect, usually wandering around the Sect and occasionally Cultivating.

Except for when Elder Lin Tianxuan forcibly stuffed a large amount of Heaven And Earth Treasure into his mouth, one basically never saw this dog actively Cultivating.

"So that's how it is. In that case, let's be sensible and leave some time for the two of them to reunite after a long separation. Everyone, let's withdraw."

After the various Elders expressed their thanks, they left their seats and walked out of the hall.

Soon, only Li Haotian's group of Personal Disciples remained in the hall.
